Chapter Two – Confusion

The world around me was fuzzy, I can't remember what happened. "Edward?" I tried to say his name but something was stopping me, my throat was too dry to muster up any words.

"She is awake," It was Alice, where was Edward, I wanted to see him. My mouth opened trying to say his name again, but nothing happened. "Hey Bella, how are you doing?" I tried to talk again but nothing came out, I moved my hand to my throat tapping it trying to tell them I couldn't talk. Edward, of course being Edward thought I was worrying about the bite. I heard him growl, I knew it wasn't meant for me, he was mad at himself. Again I tried to talk, this time it worked.

"Edward, I'm not mad at you." My voice came out with nothing but a whisper, I knew he heard me. In an instant he was next to me a snarl on his face.

"What do you mean you're not mad? I could have killed you!" His voice was so loud, so strong, I felt like I was going to cry. I choked back the tears, with each word he said it got harder, but I couldn't let him see me cry that would make him feel worse.

"Edward…" Alice said her eyes wide staring off into the corner of the room; Jasper was at her side in an instant.

"What do you see Alice?" He asked his arms wrapped around her shoulders.

"It's Bella…" Edward snapped to attention his nose inches away from Alice's face. Jasper pulled Alice closer not wanting Edward to do anything drastic.

"What about Bella!"

"I…I…she isn't changing…"

"What?" Was all any of us could say, I finally had my chance at becoming a vampire and it wasn't working! I really was weird, hanging my head my hand moved to my neck. Before I could react Edward pushed my hand to the side staring at my neck, he didn't move.

"What is it?" I asked trying to look; everyone was looking at me in awe. "What is it?" I asked even more curious now.

"Your neck…" Edward said in disbelief.

"Yeah, yeah what is it!"

"There's no mark…" I was confused, didn't vampires heal fast.

"You mean she didn't change?" Roslie asked true curiosity on her face, Charlisle was then at my side looking at my neck his cold hands running over the spot trying to find the bite mark.

"Are you sure you bit her Edward?" His head hung low.

"I'm sure; the taste of her blood is still in my mouth." I couldn't stop the blush from spreading across my face. The thought of Edward, I shook my head trying to focus on what was happening.

"You mean I'm not going to change?"

"It seems that way," Charlisle said his arms crossed over his chest. "This is very interesting…" He walked off mumbling to himself.

"Thank goodness," I heard Edward breath from my side.

"What?"

"You're still human," He smiled pulling me to his side, I sighed it seemed I was doomed.

"Did you try to suck the venom out?" Charlisle was back his arms still crossed over his chest, Edward shook his head in response.

"I didn't even think about that," His grip tightened around me again. I looked up and Charlisle was gone, I sighed, I guess I should get used to that. With a family of amazingly fast vampires, I was going to miss some things. "Bella, Bella?" I turned, it looked like he had been calling me for a while now, I must of spaced out.

"Yeah?"

"How are you feeling? Are you sure you don't feel any different?"

"No, not really."

"Roslie," Edward growled. "Stop thinking that." Roslie chuckled walking out with her husband.

"What was she thinking?"

"Nothing" Huffing I crossed my legs up on the couch.

"Oh yeah!" My hand flew to my pocket, and then stopped; I was going to find out what she was thinking.

"What?"

"Oh nothing," I smiled crossing my arms.

"What?" Edward asked again pulling me closer.

"Like I said nothing, unless what Rose was thinking was really noting…" Raising my eyebrows I crossed my arms soon realizing it was a stupid move. When I blinked he was in the corner the note in his hand. "That's not fair."

"Yeah so?" I growled standing up walking to him. "Who are they?"

"What?"

"They, the people in the letter."

"Oh, I don't know…" He turned his head to the side reading over the note again, I gasped.

"What time is it?"

"Right now about one."

"What! Charlie is going to be so worried! I have to get home!" I was frantic but Edward just stood there. "Why are you just standing there?" He chuckled.

"You're stuck here for the night I'm afraid."

"What about Charlie?" He laughed.

"Don't you have more faith then that; Alice called the minute she was up." His face looked confused.

"What is it?"

"I'm just not sure how we all ended up unconscious…"

"What do you remember?"

"Nothing, and it's weird, Alice didn't see anything coming and I didn't hear."

"I'm sure they will be back if it is that important." He nodded. "But we all learned something today."

"What is that?"

"We learned why vampires don't sleep," I laughed, but Edward didn't see the humor in what I said. He rolled his eyes grabbing my hand.

"You need some sleep Bella."

"But I was out for hours already."

"I don't' think that counts."

"Ok, I'll sleep as long as you promise not to beat yourself up all night."

"Ok, I promise," Something about his smile told me otherwise, he had something on his mind. Just when I was going to confront him on it the extent of the day made my eyes droop. "Come sleep Bella." I yawned, in the back of my mind I knew we were in his bed, his icy cold arms wrapped around me.
