Hey guys, dazzledbyu88 here. This is my first Twilight story. After reading the series in three days I was obsessed! Especially with a certain vampire, ; ). Anyway this is a story about my version of Breaking Dawn. It's about Bella new life as a vampire and the changes she and Edward must face when an old friend shows up.

The New Girl

Preface

I'm not like most girls. My name is Isabella Cullen, the newest addition to the Cullen family. I was married to my true love, Edward Cullen. And, I was a vampire.

Prologue (Flashbacks)

So many things had happen to me this past month. The first, and probably the most wonderful, was my wedding. Alice had gone overboard and invited practically all of Forks. Except Jacob Black. I was sad at first, after all e was my best friend, but I figured it would be better for the both of us if he wasn't there anymore. I remember how beautiful everything was, the house, the decorations, and my Edward. Charlie had not been surprised at my engagement to Edward and was surprisingly pleasant and happy on my big day. Renée on the other time had given me quite a fight. But after about a month of protesting she realized how much I actually loved Edward and began to accept it. However she did not come to the wedding, something with Phil. I shrugged it off, figuring it would be less stressful without her. Walking down the aisle felt like a dream to me. Everything around me was so beautiful, and for once, I finally felt part of it. I saw Edward's face at the end and was sure my heart had stopped. He looked even more beautiful than ever, if that's possible. He was smiling at me, pure happiness shown through his eyes. I blushed bright red, and smiled back at him. Time passed quickly after that. I was lost in his eyes. Before I knew what was happening I was saying 'I do' and I was kissing Edward. I was married.

If the wedding wasn't engraved forever into my mind then the night that followed surly was. Before Edward changed me he had to fill up his end of the bargain. We were on his oversized bed looking into each other's eyes as he held me. His cold lips touched mine and he leaned into me. It started off slow at first before he pulled away.

"Bella, I don't think I can do this. If something happened to you I…I wouldn't be able to take it," he explained with pain in his eyes.

"Edward look at me," his topaz eyes met mine and my heart nearly stopped. "Edward nothing is going to happen, just calm down. It's going to be fine," I assured him. He walked slowly, at human pace back towards me. He kissed me, hesitantly at first before we crossed all the previous boundaries. I did not wake till noon the next day.

I knew what would happen the morning after the wedding so I told Charlie that Edward and I were going to Alaska. It was harder, saying goodbye, than I thought it would be. I knew it would be a good couple of years before I could safely visit my family again. But for how long? How long would it be before they realized I didn't look at day over 18? How much time did I have left? I buried these thoughts inside of me. I was well aware of the sacrifices I would have to make to be with Edward. And, no matter how much I loved my family, Edward was worth so much more to me. I remember being surrounded by my new family, watching their anxious faces as Edward leaned toward my neck. He looked scared. I smiled at him reassuringly and he asked my once more if this was what I wanted. I nodded solemnly, squeezed his hand and said that I would want nothing more than to be with him forever. And then everything moved in slow motion. I saw Edwards's perfect face coming closer, and closer. His mouth opened and then, he bit me.

At first, I saw nothing but darkness as the venom rushed through my blood. Pain surrounded me and I reached for Edward's hand. Edward quickly grasped my hand tightly, giving me a reassuring squeeze. I opened my eyes. His face was so hurt; I knew he was probably in a lot of pain right now, seeing me like this.

"Bella," he whispered, his eyes were filled with endless pain.

I tried to smile and I squeezed his hand back. I managed to look at my family's worried faces and smiled reassuringly at them. This pain was nothing compared to what I felt when Edward left. The venom rushed through my veins to my heart and I screamed. Carlisle went to get me some painkillers; I wished I could get some for my Edward.

As soon as I took the meds I blacked out and did not wake till three days later. I remembered my eyes fluttering open, to Edwards's room. I was on his bed, something that would now be almost completely useless. I quietly sat up and saw Edward sitting at the foot of the bed, with his back was towards me. He was nervously fiddling with something in his hand, and he was in deep thought. I looked at my skin; it was pale, vampire pale. I smiled and decided to test my new vampire stealth ness. I quietly and gracefully crawled up behind Edward and in one quick motion pulled him down towards me and kissed his lips. Even with his quick reflexes he seamed bewildered. His eyes were open in shock for a whole two human seconds before he melted into the kiss with me. It was exciting, I've never known how good Edward was at kissing because he'd always pulled back but now there were no boundaries, just him and I, forever. When Edward and I finally pulled away, he was speechless.

"Bella," he whispered. "My Bella."

I smiled and he kissed me again, lightly this time. Of course it didn't take long for the whole Cullen family to appear. Alice must have sounded the alarm because she was the first one to appear, with a mirror in hand. I braced myself for her attack.

"Oh Bella!" she exclaimed. "I can't believe it, you're finally one of us! It took you long enough Romeo," she said, giving Edward a glare and he chuckled in response.

"Bella! Oh my gosh you have to see your self!" she exclaimed, dancing over to me and handed me the mirror. I warily peered into it and the girl staring back at me took my breath away. My pale skin finally matched my body. My face had been smoothed out and cleared of any imperfections. My hair was silkier, shinier and longer. The girl looking back at me was so beautiful. She looked like she belonged next to Edward instead of some awkward human girl with skin too pale. However one thing haunted me the most, unlike the rest of my family my eyes were red. It scared me and I took a deep breath before handing the mirror back to Alice. As long as I had Edward I would be okay.

The others all filed in after her arrival and I looked at my new family. Jasper no longer kept his distance from me and welcomed me to the family politely before controlling Alice's excitement. Esme and Carlisle gave me hugs and kisses as they welcomed me to the family. Rosalie was standing farther back then the others. She seemed to be scrutinizing my new appearance. But then smiled and awkward smile and came closer. Emmett, of course was having trouble controlling his excitement and I was reminded of Edward's request to challenge him an arm wrestle. After everyone had officially welcomed me to the family, Alice, Jasper, Emmett, Rosalie, Edward and I were all gathered around our living room. They were all discussing what my new power would be. Even Alice had no idea.

"Hey Emmett, wanna play a game?" I asked mischievously.

"Sure Bella, just be prepared to lose," he said confidently.

"Okay, lets have an arm wrestling match, loser has to spend the night outside naked, got it?" I asked evilly. I caught Edwards's eyes; he was smiling and suppressing a chuckle. I saw Alice whisper something I Rosalie's ear and they both started laughing hysterically. Emmett's face looked worried and even scared now as he nodded.

I gave him one last chance to back out of it but he bravely, and stupidly accepted my challenge. We gripped our hands together, I let him think he's was winning, keeping my hand a good 2 inches off the ground, he broke out in a sweat and smiled at me.

"Looks like this one's all mine little sis," he said confidently.

Then in one quick motion I forced his hand down hard, he didn't even know what happened till all three of us were laughing hysterically.

"Wait- what just… two out of three Bells please!" he begged, but before I could answer Rosalie was shoving him out the door, his clothes were in her hands. She held them up and triumphed. We all laughed and ran upstairs to take pictures of a night none of us, especially Emmett would forget.

Hey! I redid this chapter because I decided to take my story in a different direction. Just so you know, as a reminder, this whole chapter was Bella remembering. It wasn't the present. Hope you guys liked it and PLEASE review!!!
