Chapter Two
It has been two years since he left me and now I am twenty years old. Yep! I have dated some guys and they got me through. I have forgotten all about Edward. Actually, the only thing I feel about him is pure hatred. I realized that I was their play thing. They never loved me. I was just pure entertainment. I just question why they didn't let James kill me? They can always find another toy. They didn't need to go through all the trouble. Maybe they did that so that I'd fall in love with tem so that I would be more torn when they just left. Screw Edward! Screw his perfection! Screw his family! Screw the very idea that I was a part of their life! I sighed heavily. It's winter now and the road is slippery. I'm on my way to school. My phone rang and I answered it.
"Bella?" a male voice said.
"Yes, this is Bella. May I know who's on the other line?" I said, cheerfully.
"It's Andrew. I can't come to our date tonight. Family dinner. Sorry." He said in a voice filled with grief.
"It's alright. Good luck with your dinner. Take care!" I replied.
"Thanks. I'm hoping we can go out next time."
I hung up and my phone fell on the floor. I tried to reach for it but I had to let go of the wheel. I attained it and when I looked up two huge lights were heading toward me. It was a bus, of that I'm sure. All of a sudden, I heard crashing glass then, everything turned black.
Why do I feel that everything is burning? It's so hot. It's not the pleasant warm I used to. This is a burning hot sensation. Everything is black. Suddenly, all my memories passed in front of me. I'm going to die, aren't I? I see this in movies. Before people die, the person's whole life flashes in front of the person. Why do I have to die alone? How will Charlie and Renee feel when their only child dies? They'd be devastated. And Jacob, he's my best friend, he loves me and I love him like a brother, he'd be broken. The burning is feeling less uncomfortable by the second. The burning in my lower extremities is gone. I feel a little bit better. I wish I could see Edward or any of his family just now, at least I'd see something beautiful or perfect before I die. I hate that I loved them but they will always be a part of my life. The burning is fading. Only my heart is burning and it is really uncomfortable. I wanted to scream but I couldn't find my voice. I though dying was going to be easy? Why does it hurt too? The burning in my heart is finally stopping.
"It's almost over." I heard a voice say. It was of a guy. It was a deep tenor, very smooth and velvety. How can I hear well? I must be dreaming. My heart is stopping. I am going to die. Thump. Thump. Thump. Stop. I'm dead? "Open your eyes." The same voice said. He must be God. I have been a good person while I was alive, right? Am I in heaven? I opened my eyes.
"Hello, I am Calvin Johnson. I turned you." Turned me? Into what, a vampire? No way! I am a vampire. I never thought that I would be one. I looked around me and everything looked better. I looked at the man who introduced himself as Calvin. He looked great. He has layered blonde hair that was cut short. His face was perfect. He stood tall like a supermodel but something about him gave him a fatherly aura. Behind him was a brunette with a heart shaped face. She had a motherly aura and I believe that she is Calvin's mate. Behind her were three other people. One had pale blonde hair that was a bit long but not that long. He had his arms wrapped around a brunette with spiky hair. She reminded me off Alice but she seemed less irritating. The last one was the most gorgeous. He leaned his back on the door frame and smiled smugly. He had chocolate brown hair, the same colour of my eyes when I was human, which was styled in a way that looked that it would only look good on him. His face was perfect and his body looked toned. I sat up and checked the place. Where am I?
"Where am I?" I asked. I was shocked because my voice was different. It was a bell-like soprano.
"You are still in Forks. I saw you when you got in an accident. You looked helpless so I decided to 'save' you. You are?"
"Oh. I am Isabella Marie Swan but please be free to call me Bella." I looked at their eyes. They were gold, the same colour of their eyes. "You're vegetarians."
"How do you know?" Calvin asked, suspiciously.
"Your eyes are gold. I had vampire friends before." I shrugged.
"I see. I guess that you might want to know the rest of the family. As I said earlier, I am Calvin Johnson. This is my wife, Katrina" he pointed the brunette with a heart shaped face "He is Joseph" he pointed the other blonde and Joseph smiled "His wife Ashley" he pointed the pixie like girl.
"And I am Drake." The most gorgeous one said in a voice that made my dead heart beat again. He has a rebel aura that would tell anyone that he is danger yet he has this calm façade that would tell anyone to be his friend. "Isn't your throat burning?" he asked. Burning? I can't feel anything. Nothing. I shook my head.
"I can't read her mind." Ashley said, sadly. I winced.
"And I can't look into her past." Joseph added. All of them look gifted.
"This must be really confusing for you. Everyone in this coven has a special gift. I have the power to find any vampire that I've met wherever that vampire is. Katrina can use telekinesis. Ashley can read minds and Joseph can look into someone's past. Drake has the best power of us all, he's like Rogue. Once he touches a person, he can use the power of a person he touched but his main power is to create illusions and it seems that you are a shield." Calvin explained.
"I see. My friend, Edward" I winced "is a vampire and he can read all minds except mine."
"Have you ever resisted blows before?" Calvin asked and I shook my head. "Then, you are a mental shield." He smiled proudly and frowned. "Are you sure you aren't thirsty?"
"I am not thirsty. I am hungry though. Do you have eggs?" I asked. They looked at me liked I made the biggest joke of my life. I felt blood rush to my cheeks. They gasped.
"She blushed." Katrina merely stated. "Impossible. She's not thirsty and she blushed. Look at her eyes as well, its chocolate brown."
"How did I keep my entire human…. Uh….. Properties?" I asked, shocked.
"I don't know but you don't have a heartbeat. The only thing I can say is that you're gifted, Bella. Do you want to stay with us?" Calvin asked, shyly.
"Of course and thank you very much, Calvin."
They all smiled. Here is my new family. My old family may have been taken away when I was changed but luckily, a new family took their place and I wish that they would forever be my family.
