EPOV

For the first time in a long time I couldn't hear anybody's thoughts. But then, the sound I thought I would never hear again came from my chest. My heartbeat.

BPOV

We could all hear it, even me because I was so close to his chest. It was his heartbeat. It had such a rhythmic pattern. Of course even his heartbeat was beautiful, just like everything about him. His eyes were still closed when his heart started to beat. His face hadn't changed like I thought it might have. His bronze hair was just as stunning as ever, but it wasn't as shiny as it had been. His skin had darkened up but was no darken then my own. The purple shadows under his eyes had disappeared. I guess Edward was just been plain gorgeous even before he was changed into a vampire.

We all looked at him amazed. Just then he opened his eyes. I couldn't help but gasp. They were the most beautiful emerald green eyes I had ever seen. They were so stunning that they might be even more extravagant then his topaz ones. He looked right at me and smiled his breathtaking crooked smile.

"I guess I'm human." He stated the obvious trying to break everyone out of their stunned states. His voice just as velvet as ever.

"You smell just as good as Bella!" Alice said

"Your eyes are so beautiful." I accidentally said out loud as I started to blush.

I looked at him and he was turning red as well. It was the first time I had ever seen his skin any other color then white.

He sat up in the bed and Carlisle went straight into doctor mode. Edward still looked muscular under his tight shirt but it now hung looser on him.

"Does anything hurt?" He asked looking into Edward's perfect eyes.

"Nope."

Carlisle looked at Edward for a little bit just staring. It looked like he was trying to communicate with Edward through his mind.

"I guess you can't read minds anymore. This means that you are 100 human." Carlisle congratulated him.

Edward stood up at human speed. I reached out and hugged him as tight as I could. He felt so warm and soft. It was so different from his usually cold marble skin.

"Bella….can't…breathe." He chocked out.

"I'm sorry, I'm just not use to you having to breathe." I apologized loosening my grip on him but not letting him go.

"You and me both." He said.

I was so happy. I hadn't heard his voice in three days.

"Edward, are you okay?" Jasper asked.

I released him to see what was wrong.

"I don't know. I feel kind of funny. Like there's this pain in my stomach." He answered.

"Oh, you're just hungry." I reassured him. "I know exactly what to get you."

I grabbed his hand and lead him down the stairs but tripped on the last step bringing him down with me. Before we hit the ground Emmett caught us.

"Gosh Bella. You're no longer a danger to just yourself but to poor Edward too." I blushed at Emmett's comment. He was absolutely right. I could hurt Edward now.

"Thanks Emmett!" Edward sounded mad.

"It's not my fault Edward. You are just as breakable as Bella. Now we have to be careful around you too. Uh man, no more wrestling!" He sounded like he was about to cry.

"Your right! Oh man!" Edward sounded just as pained at this news. Boys! I will never understand them.

I lead Edward to the kitchen with everyone following, and sat him down at the table.

"Ha, ha, ha!" I thought to myself as I made Edward's breakfast. "He won't make fun of me anymore."

I put his breakfast in front of him and we both started cracking up.

EPOV

Bella sat down my breakfast in front of me. I couldn't help but laugh. The first meal I would have had in more then 100 years just happened to be the cereal I made fun of Bella for eating. I was so curious to see if it tasted any good.

"I doubt it's as good as an irritable grizzly, but I'll try it." I was really eager to try it now.

I took a spoon full and plopped it into my mouth. I chewed in aw. It was actually really good.

"This is wonderful." That just made Bella laugh even harder.

It was so strange not to be able to smell Bella's blood or want to lust after it. For the first time in years I felt… normal.

"Sorry Emmett, but this is a lot better then a grizzly."

"No it's not!" He looked at me like I was crazy.

"Yes it is!" I argued.

"Let me see." He came towards me.

"I don't think you will like it." I warned him but he took a bite full anyways.

"Ewwwwwwww!" He squealed like a little girl and went to the sink to spit it out.

"I told you so." I wore a smug smile on my face.

"To tell you the truth, you smell a lot more appetizing then that human food." Emmett said and I knew he was joking but apparently Bella didn't. Even though I didn't have vampire vision anymore I still saw her shiver as a chill probably went down her spine.

"Just joking Bella." Emmett put his hands up in defense. "I would never eat my own brother. I don't eat junk food." I glared daggers at him but everyone else cracked up.

Bella took my now finished bowl to the sink.

"So Eddie, what do you want to do today now that you're human?" She asked as she sat down in the chair next to me.

"Eddie?" Emmett asked with amusement in his voice. "Can I call you Eddie?' He was now fighting back the laughter.

I tried to growl as I usually do when he asks but nothing came out. Instead I answered his question.

"No, only Bella is allowed to call me that."

"Oh ya?" He came over and effortlessly put me in a headlock.

I struggled but couldn't get out.

"Wow! I'm not even trying!" Emmett sounded so happy.

"Let me try!" Jasper sounded thrilled as well.

Emmett passed me to Jasper as if I were a rag doll. Jasper easily held me in a headlock as well. I fought even harder to get out of his grip because he was holding me a little tighter then Emmett.

"YES!!!!! Finally! I am no longer the weakest of the family!" Jasper exclaimed with so much pride.

Jasper had always been the weakest one in the family, at least on the men's side. He had complained for years how it wasn't fair, and that one day he wouldn't be. I never thought this day would come.

"Of course you're stronger. Are you guy's idiots? You are vampires and I'm a human." I didn't like feeling like I was the breakable one and the weak one. I started to wonder if this is what Bella felt like whenever she hung around us.

"Sorry man, it's just that I've waited so long for this moment." He tightened his grip around my neck.

It was getting harder to breathe and he was starting to hurt my neck.

"Jasper Hale you let go of your brother right this instant. He's starting to turn blue!" Esme sounded like the concerned mother she was.

"Oops." Jasper said and let go.

I gasped for air as soon as he let go. Great! Now my mother was fighting my battles.

"I wonder if you're still really fast for a human." Emmett said with an evil glint in his eyes.

It was bothering me so much that I couldn't read any of their minds. I have to start all over on how to read them, just like I had to do with Bella. To see if what I said offended them or if it was ok. I no longer knew the right thing to say. Jasper use to say that because of my power I always knew the right things to say to make people feel better. This is probably the worst thing that I had to sacrifice. But it was all worth it. I was no longer a monster.

"We should have a race!" Bella declared, getting up as she spoke.

"Are you crazy?! Have you all lost your minds?! Bella, there vampires!" It felt good to not be one of them for once.

"Fine. They have to run at human speed, and you and I will run as fast as we can."

"That's sounds fair." I admitted.

We all got up and went to the backyard. We all lined up, all of us accept Esme. She wanted to the referee to make sure the others ran at a human speed.

"All you have to do is run down to the clearing," She pointed to the clearing, but it was now too far away for my less sensitive eyes but I knew where it was. It was about a mile down. It shouldn't take me anytime at all "And then come back. Are you ready? On your mark, get set, GO!" We all started running.

For vampires they were going extremely slow, but to Bella and me we were going pretty fast. I couldn't get over at how slow this was compared to when I was a vampire. I was amazed at how tired I got after a few minutes. Bella had slowed down and was in last place. Alice and Rosalie didn't care about winning so they slowed their pace to match Bella's. That only people left were Carlisle, Emmett, Jasper, and me. Even for a vampire Carlisle was really slow. He could never go as fast as the rest of the family. I was not surprised to see that I was really fast for a human. We had figured that was probably why when I was a vampire I was so fast.

I still can't get over how happy I am to be using past tense. I once was a vampire. I now had a second chance at living a normal life. The rest of my family too. When Bella was unconscious Carlisle had told me that we were going to wait a few days to see how things went with me. If there were no problems then the rest of the family would become humans too.

I was now right behind Emmett and Jasper as we were heading back from the clearing. I started to run as fast as I could. Emmett and Jasper were starting to get mad that I could run faster then them at human speed. They started to go faster until they were out of sight.

I finally crossed the finish line exhausted but still going as fast I could. Just like I had thought Emmett and Jasper were already there. I fell to the ground because I was so worn-out.

"Edward?' Esme sounded really scared.

I jumped right back up to show her I was alright but I was still breathing really hard.

We waited for the others to finish. Carlisle came about 30 seconds after me. Then the girls in one big group about a minute in a half later.

"Sorry guys. Bella kept tripping." Rosalie sounded disgusted.

I opened my arms for an exhausted Bella. She didn't feel as warm as she had before I was human. She felt just normal, but now she was really warm for running so long. I kissed her on her full red lips. It was the first time I had kissed her. I mean really kissed her. No bounders, no where to draw the lines. Even though it was short because we were both breathing hard before we had even kissed, it was the best kiss I had ever had with her. There could never be a better kiss. I didn't have to be cautions or be careful so I wouldn't break her.

"The winner of the race is…" Esme was trying to build up the suspense even though we all knew it was either Emmett or Jasper. "Edward!"

"What?!" Emmett, Jasper, and me all shouted at the same time.

"That's right. The only rule was that you had to run at a human speed. Jasper and Emmett were running at a slow vampire speed but still, no human could ever run that fast."

We all wore faces of surprise.

"NO!" Emmett yelled. He was now on his knees.

"Looks like I'm still the fastest." I said a little breathless.

"NO!" Jasper had now joined Emmett on the ground.

Bella and I were so tired that we went straight to my room. We were listening to her lullaby when Bella and I fell asleep in each other's arms. It was the first time I had slept in over 100 years. It was a well deserved rest.
