A/N: My first Twilight fanfic!! (ok, the first one I've posted) Just so you know, Kara is a Vampire, and this story is told from her point of view. Oh, and she can read minds….and so can Bella. It does have twilight characters in it, but doesn't really follow them much. This happens sometime after Edward and Bella get married and Bella gets turned into a vamp. I think it's pretty good, but reviews always help!!

Disclaimer: Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish I might, own the beloved Twilight!! (but sadly, I don't. I just own kara and her boyfr….ehrm….sorry Kara…Fiancé…..you happy now?…..she's good. ON WITH THE STORY!!)

Chapter 1:

I was sitting in class, waiting for Mrs. Allen to start her lecture and doodling on the blank piece of paper I had in front of me. It was still five minutes before the late bell, hardly anybody was in the room, so I decided to see what everyone was thinking about. Its kind of rude, but I don't care. Casting my mind out, I jumped to the thoughts of a girl who'd just walked past the open door.

"Kara's back! My god, I forgot how beautiful she was. Well, at least she has some competition now. That new girl is just as pretty."

I rolled my eyes. As if I cared about how pretty anybody else was. I'm not like that. I base my friends on their personality, not on how they look, unlike ninety-nine percent of the population here at Stone Wall High. The jerks.

"Did you hear? Kara's back!" the same girl said to her friends at the corner of the building.

"Really? About time. It's been more than a year since…"

I stopped listening, not wanting to hear it. Distracting myself from the memories that were creeping up, I started searching their minds for this new girl. It wasn't hard, since every boy on campus was thinking about her. I thought I was going to puke, vampire or not. Briefly I wondered where they had picked up such vile things, then decided that I really didn't want to know.

Well, besides the disgusting parts, I got that she was beautiful beyond comparison. Longish- brown hair, pale like a vamp, auburn eyes. "Yep," I thought, smiling grimly. "Definitely a vampire,"

I also learned she was married. That scratched at the edges of the gaping hole in my heart. I could see the way he looked at her through the eyes of my classmates. It was so protective, so loving, so… just like him.

Her husband had bronze hair. He also had the traits of a vampire, the eyes and the skin. He did have a temper, though. I could almost hear his fists shaking as some poor guy tried to hit on his wife. I bit my lower lip, trying not to smile as the teacher walked in, pulling me back to my own head.

"Hello, Kara. What a wonderful surprise. I didn't know if you'd be back or not." she said, a warm smile on her face. I gave her a small grin, telling her with my eyes that I didn't want to talk about it. She got the message and went to her desk as the other students started to file in.

I was back to doodling when I heard an audible intake of breath from the whole class. Then the scent hit me. "I didn't know vampires could smell that good," I thought. I looked up to find her husband glaring at me. His face was mad but his eyes were confused.

"Oh, great. He can hear my thoughts." I thought. "Look, I'm sorry about that. I had meant it as a complement, honest." I half shrugged. He softened up…a little.

They told the teacher who they were, and she directed them to the two empty chairs beside me.

"Hello. My name is Edward Cullen, and this is my wife Bella." he said in a soft, musical voice.

"I'm Kara Hanson," I replied, accepting his offered handshake. "Nice to meet you, Edward, Bella," I shook her hand too. The whole room was staring at us. Well, mostly me. They didn't think I could speak. "Idiots," I muttered, too quiet for a human to hear. Edward chuckled and Bella smiled.

"So, where are you from?" Bella asked in my head as Mrs. Allen started class.

"Arkansas,"

"How old are you?"

"What? Are you interrogating me?"

"Just curious,"

"Sixteen,"

She gave me a look.

"What? It's true."

Edward chose then to interrupt. "What year were you born?"

That earned him a glare. "1904,"

Edward and Bella exchanged glances.

"Kara, where was George Washington sworn in as president?" Mrs. Allen asked. I didn't even have to pick it out of her head. "New York,"

"Very good." she smiled.

'Just once I'd like to knock her through the roof,' I thought, momentarily forgetting I had two mind reading vampires sitting next to me.

"Why's that?" Bella asked.

"She's annoying,"

"I think she's rather nice. She's the only teacher that hasn't had horrible thoughts about me or Edward all day."

"I didn't say she wasn't nice. I said she was annoying," I growled.

They both stared at me, waiting.

"Pretend to be sick for about a week and see how long it takes for her to show up on your doorstep with a box of cookies and the local doctor." I suggested. "Then try to get rid of her."

Edward became very interested in something in his binder, hiding his smile. Bella was biting her bottom lip, doing the same.

"You think I'm kidding?"

They both looked back to me and saw I was dead serious. That shut them up, for now.

"How does Jasper live with them?" I thought. I grinned at the surprise in their expressions. Luckily for me, the bell rang just then. I hopped up, a tad bit faster than a normal human, and was out the door before they could catch me.

HAHA!! Cliffhanger!! I am sorta mean that way (seeing as I hate cliffhangers myself). Oh, well. Anyway, review!! Constructive Criticism welcome!! The more I get the more I put up!!
