Chapter 1
(Olivia point of view)
I looked down upon the work I had been given by my bio teacher, snore…..this is the same work I had been given for the past 75 years I had been to Forks high. My mate Jasper was quietly working away, his blonde hair falling in front of his eyes, god how I loved when that happened. I could never quite concentrate when he was next to me.
I guess your wondering what I mean be "mate" at the fact that I've been to the same high school repeatedly in 75 years. The answer was a long one.
Flashback
I was like any other 18 year old when I came across Jasper. I had wandered off a trail in the forest just outside Forks, It was getting late and I was getting worried that i was going round in circles. I heard a crunch of leaves behind me and turned round to see a beautiful guy standing. His eyes were a strange dark honey colour that matched hair wavy hair. He came towards me and leaned in like he was going to kiss me, I was blown away I thought I was hallucinating from lack of sleep from walking around in the forest. Instead of kissing me I felt a sharp pain go through my neck and I screamed out in pain, what was he doing. I didn't understand why this beautiful person would hurt me.
I was feeling faint, and I felt like I was going to fall as It happens I did. I heard the guy speak "what am I doing? How could I go against Carlisle's way….i think I've changed her…what will Carlisle say?" I didn't understand what he meant by changed her, my mind was being drawn to the immense fair ripping it's way through my body, imagine being immersed in acid, trampled by bulls and being ripped to pieces by a thousand bears all at once.
This pain didn't go away for what felt forever, but over this long time I felt my hearing get better I could hear people talking in the background;
"What are we going to do Carlisle?" spoke a quiet woman's voice,
"I don't know Esme, we could show her the way and let her stay with us"
"This is seriously destroyed Jasper, he can't believe that he fed on a human"
I was starting to get scared by the talks of feeding on humans and the great pain going through my body.
"maybe when he sees what a beautiful girl she has turned out to be, he could forgive himself, he's been the odd one out for far to long. Having to see you and me, Emmett and Rosalie and Edward and Bella must cause him pain……Carlisle I think she's starting to wake up!"
When I opened my eyes I could see everything, I knew I wasn't the same Olivia I was before the pain. I could tell, I was stronger and my mind was more open.
"it's ok Olivia, you're safe but I think we should talk" spoke the man, he was obviously Carlisle and the leader of these people as they all looked up to him for guidance
"you may notice that you feel different, that's because you are Olivia, this may come as a shock but your body has changed…..you're a …vampire. My family and I are different from the stereotypical one's you know. We live off of animals and we are civilised, we can show you the way and if you decide to leave us you can but if you wish to stay we welcome you to our home"
From then on my life was changed, I met the rest of the family and Jasper always avoided me, I think he thought that changing me was blasphemy, he thought he ruined my life; he couldn't be more wrong, being a vampire is the best thing that has every happened to me….except the fact that it was Jasper that changed me, my soul mate, my best friend.
He knows me better than anyone does, I couldn't be happier. It was hard for me to deal with my curbed diet when I first became what I am. My Jasper helped me with hunting; a way to repay me for taking away my human life. I fell for him quickly, his amazing personality and amazing looks only helped along the process.
I made friends with Rosalie first, we both like the same things; cars, and we both love the beauty that comes with this life.
Esme made me feel like a child of her own, and each of them took it in turns to tell me their stories: Esme jumped off of a cliff when she lost her child, Carlisle found her and changed her for a mate, Edward was changed by Carlisle as a companion through the Spanish influenza, he was first to be changed by Carlisle who got changed during a vampire hunt. He then turned Rosalie who was found in an ally way after being assaulted by her fiancé. Carlisle thought Rosalie would be to Edward what Esme was to him, but they were more like siblings. Rosalie found Emmett being mauled by a bear and she carried him to Carlisle to be changed. Bella was last to be changed, her story was different, she fell in love with Edward while she was still human and he loved her back, when a crazed vampire tried to bit her, it was up to Edward to chooses whether he left her to change or he could suck the venom out of her. He choose to leave her to change as he could be with his love forever.
End flashback
Bella and I are the only one's to not be changed by Carlisle, I'm glad to be changed by Jasper, it only makes me love him more, it makes our bond only stronger.
In the first couple of years my family and I noticed that I had an extra gift. I could use Jasper's gift at my own will, after some more years it turns out I could use my whole families gifts at my own will. Carlisle had his own theory that I was able to use them because I had strong bonds with them, if I knew someone well enough I was able to use theirs as well. It doesn't matter where I am If I think of the gift I want I can use it!
