BPOV

I bit my lip as I looked at the book, contemplating on whether or not I should take it. I couldn't believe it had made it back to me. This piece of literature that had consumed my mind for almost the whole day ended up back in my presence.

Alice forced it forward.

"Here take it." She said pulling me out of my thoughts. I looked up at her with a shocked face and she gave me a questioning look. I just shook my head trying to shake of the feeling and took the book from her.

I gave her a slight smile and she just gave me another funny look.

"What's with you Bella?"

I just shrugged. "Sorry, it's been a long day."

She nodded sympathetically. "I understand. Just take a nice shower and hit the hay. I won't bother you."

I nodded absentmindedly to her and returned my attention to my book. Something about it just pulled me in and I couldn't wait to read it.

"Yeah… I think I am going to head to bed…" I said trailing off, not waiting for her answer.

I shuffled out of the kitchen and down the hallway to my room. As I moved I contemplated on what I should do first. I knew that once I started the book there was no telling how long I would read it.

Getting a shower was defiantly going to be first.

I sighed as I walked into my tiny cubical of a room. I was anxious to start into my new book, but at the same time I wanted to put it off and savor it. I knew that this book was special I just didn't know how yet.

I place the book gently on my bed and began to strip my work attire. I threw off pieces as I made my way into my tiny bathroom, not caring about the mess I was making. I was going through the motions in a daze; all of my thoughts were focused solely on that book – 'Twilight'. I didn't understand how one piece of literature could suddenly consume all my thoughts. I hadn't even read past the first page.

I came out of my thoughts as I stepped into the steaming hot shower. A squeak escaped my lips as the scalding water touched my skin. I was awake instantly.

I began to lather the strawberry soap into my hair as I came up with plausible reasons for the book to have no author or back cover.

It must have been a miss print. Those happen all the time, right? Or maybe it wasn't even supposed to be out yet, it could be a fist draft for all I know.

I shook my head again trying to think of anything else beside this book. I began to count off my "to do list" to keep my mind busy.

Call Mom

Go to the store

Finish paper

Read 'Twilight'…

I growled as that thought entered my head. I need to focus on something else. This book was the last thing I needed to distract me from my studies.

I giggled when I thought about my stupid problem. Most people complained about having a boyfriend or a busy life that distracted them from school. I was thinking about a stupid book. I am such a nerd…

A nerd that is now obsessed with a book she hasn't even read.

It didn't take me long to finish my shower and now that it was out of the way I could settle in and read my book.

I quickly dressed in a comfy shirt and pajama pants and settled myself into bed. I reached for the book and smiled as its shinny cover skimmed over my fingertips. Gently, I picked it up and brought it closer to my face. The smell wafting off of it was so very tempting. It was the smell of new crisp pages and something else – something sweet. I sighed as I breathed in the welcoming scent before opening up its pages and diving in.

My change into a vampire was something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. I was a monster because of its curse, because of one bite… I was monster to forever roam the earth, feeding off of innocents... There could be no worse fate than being damned for eternity…

I frowned as I read this poor character's view of what he was. From what I knew he had no choice. It wasn't his fault. I shrugged my thoughts off… It's just fiction Bella… and continued reading.

I lived a sheltered life now for someone so powerful. For some one that could kill you in the blink of an eye; I hid from the power. I only wanted to live in my self-loathing, forever remembering those that I have killed and the thoughts in their head as I slowly drained them of life.

Yes, if my damnation couldn't be any worse, my ability to read people's minds only worsening that fact. I knew exactly what they were thinking as I ripped their precious life away from them…

But, I had even killed before my eternal damnation. I deserved this life. I deserved it for killing my mother as she cared for me as a young child. I made her weak as she nursed me. I deserved it for killing my father. I stressed him out with my childish dreams… of the glory of fighting in war… That is why he was weak, why he died of the Spanish flu…

My eyes began to water. Could feel Edward's self hatred and it was killing me. I had never reacted to a book like this before. The feeling and writing were all so real…

I growled as I thought about what I took away from them – from myself. I killed the only people that had ever loved me. Now I was a pawn to the powerful Volturi - their mindreading treasure.

The Volturi are the leaders of the vampire race. They keep our kind in line with their ridiculous rules and dictations and now they used me to help. Aro, one of the three leaders…

I giggled quietly as I read. That was Alice and Emmett's grandfather's name. How strange, it wasn't like it was a common name… Oh well… I thought and shrugged it off.

… kept me as a trophy in his Italian castle. He only called on me when I was needed and left me alone otherwise… However I knew if I ever wanted to leave, he would never let me go. Aro held onto me because of my gift – he was envious. I could read it in his mind anytime he was near. He wanted me… That is why I stayed locked in my room, away from the other demons…

I continued to read sucked in by the words of this book. It was so different from anything I had ever read. I was always focused on the classics. The mundane literature of a past time, but this book was far better than half of those that I had read. It was amazing. I needed more.

So I read, I read about Edward's life in Volturi about his loneliness and his dark self hatred. I wanted to comfort this fictional character. Never in my life had I felt such emotions toward someone, and he was fictional no less…

Eventually I looked over at my clock and noticed it was nearly 2 a.m. I would have to be up in less than five hours for my 8 a.m. class. Reluctantly I set the spellbinding book down and turned off my lamp.

As I snuggled under my warm sheets my mind continued to wonder to Edward. To what he looked like to how he would be if he wasn't alone if someone showed them they cared…

Slowly I fell asleep…that was the first night I dreamt of Edward Cullen…
