A/N: Enjoy Chapter Three

--------------------------------------------------------

"They're coming." Edward said with a growl growing. I had just finished trying on all my old clothes in the closet, none of which fit and of course, repressing the urge to eat. Edward said he was taking me hunting tonight, but I couldn't wait. I truthfully couldn't wait all the bones inside me urged me to eat something. It was kind of annoying to be hungry like this. This wasn't my normal hungry and I would definitely have to get used to it.

It was just three days ago that I was human. Tonight the Vulturi were coming to check up on us and then I was going hunting. The Vulturi was kind of messing up my plans. All I really wanted to do was go hunting I was so hungry. Edward said he'd show me how, like monkey see, monkey do, Or I guess it would be Vampire see, Vampire do.

It feels weird being strong. Edward said I am at my strongest as a new vampire, in fact all my senses are really strong right now. I don't care what he says, I am still not as strong as any of the Cullen's are. My sense of smell is amazing and it's driving me insane, I can smell dear from miles away, and I can smell the river, and the grass. I can smell everything but I don't like it, it makes me so hungry. I can hear perfectly so now Edward can't have secret talks with anyone else because I can understand every word. Edward still treats me as if I was human, and I think I like that.

He came up behind me, as if to startle me, and I caught him off guard. I turned around and he caught me in his arms. He refused to let go, I couldn't brake through his arms if I wanted to.

"You know what's weird Bella?" Edward asked still not letting up on his grip, though it didn't hurt me now that I wasn't human.

"What?" I asked still struggling to break free. I was going to have to play dirty, I tilted my head back and kissed his chin, the only thing I could reach at this angle, and he let twisted me around out of his arms, still holding my hands.

"You still smell exactly the same." He said with his crooked smile on his face. I still loved this smile. He kissed me and I kissed back.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I hadn't thought much about the fact that I still remembered my human life but it did make me question tings. I wondered if I was still immune to Edwards senses. I had only been a vampire for a few hours but I had so many questions. I asked one now.

"Edward," I said as he held me in his arms

"Yes" He said

"Have you tried to read my thoughts?" I asked curious

"No, I guess I haven't." He said looking at me, he stared at me for what felt like eternity before he said. "If you want me to kiss you then why didn't you start kissing me?" He asked with a laugh. I shrugged and kissed him a long kiss.

"You read my thoughts." I said when I had finished kissing him. "I…I thought you couldn't do that!" I said with shock.

"Well I guess I can now." He said his brows furrowing.

"What's wrong?" I asked curious to why being able to read my mind was bad for him.

"Well, if I can read your mind then everything else would work on you too…" Edward said before I cut him off.

"…Even Jane's….Special..Talent…" I said finishing his sentence for him. I didn't realize how bad being a vampire could be. How could I not have realized. Now Jane, and Demetri, and even Aro, could use their…their…talents… on me. I had a feeling this was not good. I sat back in Edwards arms and thought, "long and hard", about what this could mean.

-------------------------------------------------

"Bella?" Edward questioned from my thoughts.

"Yes?" I questioned back.

"Do you want to go hunting now?" He asked

"Yes!" I almost screamed.

----------------------------------------------

After hunting Edward took me to spend time with his family. I was just about to disagree, and say we should go upstairs, when I realized I hadn't really seen his family since before I was a vampire.

"Ok" I said trying to sound happy, though I doubt I was succeeding.

"You know I can read your mind, right?" Edward said giving me a humorous look.

"Oh yeah!" I said remembering.

I walked into the living room to see all of the other 6 Cullen's staring back at me with grins, even Rosalie, who, had been surprisingly nice to me lately.

"Bella, we are very happy to have you as a part of our family, and I speak not only for myself and Esme, but for everybody here." Carlisle said "And we all thought that, though it's a bit early, we would buy Edward and Yourself, a house, as an early wedding present." He finished.

I stared back at them all with a look of surprise on my face. I could feel Edward beaming at the back of my head, obviously he was already in on the plan, I thought to myself.

"I was," He said from behind me "In on the plan I mean!" he said with much excitement.

I turned around and faced him, I gave him a kiss on the lips.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I asked him

"Because, Bella, it was a surprise," He smiled and finished what he was saying "it wouldn't have been a surprise if I told you." He laughed and I wanted to melt into his arms.

"Can I see it?" I asked getting excited

"No," I looked disappointed "not until tomorrow, tonight we wait for Aro and his friends." He finished. I looked away from him, not wanting him to see the disappointment in my face, but when I did, I saw the rest of his family.

"Thank - You." I said barely above a whisper, I knew they could hear it. They smiled in reply.

I turned back towards Edward.

"When do you think they'll be here?" I asked with a slight edge of worry in my voice.

"In about 1 minute." Alice said.

Just then we heard a car pull up in the driveway. Edward was at the door, no one else had moved. Edward walked back to my side and behind was Aro and the same vampires from the first time. I stood slightly behind Edward out of habit.

"Hello Bella," Aro said looking at me "And hello to the rest of you, Esme, Carlisle, Rosalie, Emmet, Jasper, Alice, and Edward." he finished as he turned so he could sweep the rest of the room with his eye's.

"Hello." Edward said back and although I knew it wasn't for me, the coldness in his voice made me shiver.

"Well, you all look well," Aro said "I just came to check up on Bella." he glanced in my direction and Edward, in return, gave him a look.

"Well she's here and it's done." Said Edward with the same cold tone as before.

"Fine," Aro said and turned "but," He turned around "I have but one more question."

"What?" Edward said

"Does she appear to have any special talents?" Aro asked looking hopeful

This time Carlisle answered. "No, she doesn't appear to have any special talents, yet. Will that be all?"

"Yes, I do believe so!" Aro said with keenness.

"Goodbye," Edward said and then looked slightly more pleasant and added "let me walk you to the door." Aro and his friends walked ahead towards the door and Edward followed, not glancing behind him but instead staring straight ahead.

When he returned I followed him upstairs. I sat down and turn to Edward, I was once again excited about the idea of a house.

"Where is it?" I asked

"Where is what?" Edward replied sounding distracted. He had a preoccupied look on his face, like he was thinking of other things.

"The house." I said and smiled at the thought. I looked down at my topaz ring and smiled. I was getting married. Crap! I thought I had stuff to plan and stuff to buy and, wait, I thought. I have no clothes, I looked down at what I was wearing, Alice's shirt, and a pair of her pants. This had to change, I needed to go shopping.

"Why do you think so much?!" Edward laughed. He had obviously read my mind and found it a bit confusing.

"I have lot's to worry about," I said defiantly "We have house, we need furniture, I need clothes, we have a wedding that needs to be planned…." I was cut off before I could finish a long list of worries.

"Don't worry," Edward said with a soothing voice "Esme is taking care of the wedding, and we'll go shopping for furniture later. And Alice, I'm sure, would love to take you shopping tomorrow."

I relaxed a little before I started asking questions again. "Where is the house?" I asked Edward.

"It's just down the road, another mile or so." He smiled "We won't be very far from my family, don't worry."

"You know, sometimes I don't like it when you can read my thoughts." I said with a small giggle.

He laughed and I pulled him back down onto the couch so I could give him another kiss.

"I want to see it," I said "Tomorrow." I kissed him again for a long time, until Alice came in and asked if we were going shopping tomorrow, to which I replied yes, and I kissed Edward again.

------------------------------------------------------------x

Shopping with Alice was amazing. She made me try on a million clothes and put back half of them and made me try on a million more. I felt like I had tried the whole store on before she finally said, we were god to go. She stood u and had the biggest pile of clothes in her hand that I had ever seen. I was anxious to get home to Edward so I could go see the new house, so I didn't object.

When we got home I changed out of Alice's clothes and put on new jeans and a blue sweater. I entered Edwards room and kissed him as soon as he was in view.

"Can we go now?" I asked eagerly
