I came home from school today, and as I go the mail, this chapter was writing itself in my head. It just kept going, so I typed it up for all you guys to read. I hope you like it!

This is the first (thing I remember)
Now it's the last (thing left on my mind)
Afraid of the dark (do you hear me whisper)
An empty heart (replaced with paranoia)
Where do we go (life's temporary)
After we're gone (like new years resolutions)
Why is this hard (do you recognize me)
I know I'm wrong (but I can't help believing)

-Stockholm Syndrome – Blink 182

3 days.

3 of the longest days in my life. They were defiantly the most painful, but in a odd, twisted way, they were the most joyful too. Because, because of these 3 days of physical torture, I'll able to live all of eternity.

I'll be with Edward forever.

That, in its own, is a reward that I don't think I should deserve, but I will take it. I'd be a fool not too.

But, finally, the transformation was over. It had finally ended, and not the scents and the sights of the woods hit me like a bullet. Everything was so much… brighter. More colorful in a way that nobody can describe. Only a select few can, and I was one of those few.

And the smells! I felt like some miracle had taken over me, and in its place was this... this… all powerful person. But the person was me.

It was a pretty odd feeling.

I don't know how much time had passed since I'd been just staring around me, but finally Edward's voice broke it. I had almost forgotten he was here.

"Bella?" came his voice from right behind me. I turned and looked at him, a smile on my face. His breath got caught in his throat as he stared at me.

Wait, wait, wait. I was dazzling him? Wow, this was a first. …And I could use this later.

I smiled wider. "Yes?" I asked in a voice that was bell like. How fitting that I should sound like my name.

But before he could respond, something came over me. Not really something bad, just a memory.

I would be beautiful now.

I raced over to a nearby stream, surprising myself because I didn't trip, and then bent over it dangerously. I looked….

Pretty much the same.

The only thing that had really changed was that now I looked more of how I did after Alice gave me one of her many makeovers. I did look beautiful, don't get me wrong, but not really how I was expecting. Just a bit… plain still.

That's when I felt two strong arms wrap themselves around my waist. "Bella, my Bella. I love you," he said and kissed me. I turned around to face him, and a smile erupted on my lips. Did he know how much he meant to me? He couldn't. He couldn't comprehend how important he was to my world. He was my world.

"I love you too," I said and kissed his lips. This was a nice. No holding back now that he couldn't hurt me. Ho worries. No problems. We were able to be ourselves. It was the best feeling in the world to know that.

"Cummon, lets go back to your house," I said after a few minutes. I didn't really want to break up our reunion, but I wanted to see everyone else too. I could just see Alice bouncing up and down too.

Edward nodded, and smiled his at me. I could see some worry lines creased into his forehead, not doubt from him watching me go through all that I had these past days. It was selfish of me to put him through it all, but I knew that he wouldn't have it any other way, and neither would I. So, this was how it ended working out.

I traced his face for a second with my fingers to absorb it in this new body I had been given, and the lines on his forehead decreased. We both smiled, and he picked me up and deposited me on his back.

I chuckled in his ear. Edward turned his face to look at me, and raised an eyebrow questioningly as he made to leave our meadow.

"As much as I would love you to give me a piggy back ride, you know, I can run like you now too," I told him. "Heck, I might even be faster, but I doubt it." If he could blush, he would be scarlet now.

"I forgot already," he mumbled, and I climbed down his back.

I smiled at him again. Dang, did I feel so good now! I felt like I could fly! "Yeah, I figured as much." Then, without giving him a warning, I took off in the direction of his house.

My sense of direction was perfect, and so was my speed. I didn't fall over once, and I didn't even stumble on anything. I was amazed. Jumping over a couple of bunnies and a squirrel who didn't hear my approach, I beat Edward home.

Alice was waiting on the porch, and I could tell the rest of the family was just inside, probably at the TV or something.

"She's back!" called Alice as she hurried down to me. Alice looked at me strangely for a second, and I'm not even sure if it was just my eyes or what, but the next second I was getting a hug that had I been given when I was still human, I would be dead. Typical Alice.

Next came Emmett. He picked me off the ground and swung me around. He kept repeating, "You're a vampire! You're a vampire!" like it was a show tune that he liked, and he was expecting them all to join in any minute. I laughed.

Then, Jasper gave me a much smaller hug them Emmett – who could still be heard singing "You're a vampire!" from behind us – which was fallowed by one from Esme ("So good to finally have you in the family!") and Carlisle (a nod, and "Welcome to the Cullen household Bella."). Rosalie only stood in the back, eyeing me. No doubt she had wondered if I was prettier then her.

Not like that could happen. But, something was missing.

Edward.

He had emerged from the wood before Emmett had hugged me and put his arm around my waist, but he seemed distracted in some way.

We were all in the front room, sitting with our partners as we talked. None if it really pertained to me, but I saw Edwards eyes flick to Carlisle more than once from my spot on his lap.

"What's wrong Edward?" I asked, a bit of pain in my eyes. I had just gotten out of the most painful three days in my life, and my angel wouldn't talk to me. It was torturous all over again.

"Nothing my love," he said and wrapped his arms around me tighter. Something was still troubling him.

"Edward, what is it? You're killing me." Only then did he really look at my face. He smiled in a way to try to cheer me up, but it only frightened me more. What was wrong? Why wouldn't he tell me?

"It's just… I noticed something on our way home. For one, you didn't trip at all." I ignored this mark on my balance – after all, I knew it was true – and waited for him to continue. "And for two, you didn't attack those animals. The thirst should've been driving you mad, but you jumped right over them as if they weren't there."

His eyebrows snapped together as he contemplated what could be wrong with me, but I started to hyperventilate. I couldn't even be a decent vampire! Gosh, what's wrong with me?!

"Bella, Bella calm down," he said and rubbed my back in soothing circles. It helped a bit, and after a few minutes, I was breathing normal again. Not that I really needed to anyway…

"This is odd. Are you sure you saw the rabbits Edward?" came Carlisle's voice. He was obviously trying to figure out what was wrong, seeing as he had is Doctor Face on.

Edward nodded. "Yes, I'm sure. I almost attacked the things myself."

I almost smiled, but it came out as more of a grimace.

"We'll figure this out Bella. It's okay," came Edwards reassuring voice. I nodded a slight bit, and leaned against his chest, my face buried in his neck. "Plus, this might be for the better," he then added.

Before I could ask what he meant, Alice gasped and exclaimed, "So, that's why!"

I wrinkled my brow, and asked her, "So that's why what?"

"That's why I saw your eyes the color that ours are! They were topaz! You know as well as we do that that shouldn't happen for another year, assuming you don't slip up"- at this, Edward growled a bit, but it wasn't loud. Alice just ignored him- "but my vision took place tomorrow I think! Wow, this is weird…"

I could only agree. It was just my first day as a vampire, and already something was wrong with me. But then I remembered Edward saying something a minute ago.

"Edward, why would this be for the better?" I asked. He smiled at my curious expression.

"Because, my love, you might be able to go back to the human world all the sooner. You might get to see Charlie in only a couple of days." Wow. This brightened my mood entirely. Being able to see my father again…

Of course, I had been ready to go on without him. I had planned on never seeing it again, but not that I though that I'd be able too see him…. Well, my outlook of eternity seemed to lighten a bit.

Yeah, so that was it. Usual chapters will be a bit longer, but for some reason, I can't do long first chappys… it's like a curse or something. But, yeah!

-Peace out 'til next time…. (dundunDUN)
