Alice POV

"She will wake up in 3 minutes," I announced. Carlisle nodded getting up from the couch.

He explained to Bella what vampires were. She strangely stayed quiet and calm, thanks to Jasper. He told her each of our stories how we were changed. She only interrupted twice.

"He reads minds?" she blurted out when hearing Edward's story. She sounded embarrassed, and Emmett chuckled.

"Yes, but he can't read yours," Carlisle informed her. Edward hadn't told us that. We all turned to him expectantly.

"I thought I mentioned it," he grumbled obviously frustrated at her ability to block his power.

The second time she interrupted was when he was telling Emmett's story.

"She ran all that way? Even with the blood everywhere?" she asked in awe. Rosalie and Emmett shared a loving glance.

"Yes, it was very difficult," Carlisle replied.

"That's, well, that's amazing," she said. Emmett put his arm protectively around Rosalie, and she giggled kissing him. I noticed Rosalie had never really liked the thought of Bella becoming one of us, but her comment made me consider otherwise. I couldn't wait any longer to meet her, so I skipped up the stairs.

Bella POV

The pixie-like girl, named Alice, smiled amiably at me.

"Hello, I'm Alice!" she introduced. I couldn't help but smile back.

"Bella Swan," I said back. I noticed that my voice was slightly higher and a small musical tone to it.

She made a motion with her hand form me to follow her, and I did so. She led me down a hallway into a bathroom. It was filled with different tubes of shampoo, conditioners, and lotions. In the middle was a huge mirror. I looked in the mirror and gasped at what I saw.

The girl, who was supposed to be my reflection, gasped as well. This girl had shinier and more bouncy hair than me. Her hair was radiant and her face was feminine and beautiful. Her frame was gorgeous, and it had curves in all the right places. Her lips were fuller and darker. She had a small blush on her cheeks, only noticeable because of her extremely pale skin. But what surprised me the most- her eyes; they were blood red.

"Is that…" I trailed off. I reached my hand touching the mirror lightly. The other girl did the same. I tilted my head and turned to Alice who giggled.

"You? Yes it is," she answered my unfinished question. I looked at the stunning reflection once again. That was me? The reflection showed the same confusion as I felt.

"My eyes," was all I could manage to get out.

"They will be red for a year or so. It's just your body using up all your human blood," she informed me. I nodded not looking away from my reflection. She tugged at my hand gently, and I followed her again.

She led me to the living room where everyone sat waiting for me. I noticed all their features for the first time with vampire sight. They all had the pale skin and topaz eyes. They were inhumanly beautiful, as I was.

"Hello," the big one said sticking his hand out. I hesitantly shook it. He smiled pleasantly at me, "I'm Emmett."

"I'm Rosalie," the elegant blonde said. She smiled at me, but it looked a little forced. I smiled back nonetheless.

"You know I'm Alice," Alice said, "and that's my husband, Jasper," she introduced for him. He smiled timidly at me. I suddenly felt calm and at-ease. I remembered what Carlisle had told me about his powers. I raised one eyebrow, and he grinned more naturally.

"I'm Esme, and you know Carlisle," the older woman said. I remembered her from the pain. She was always the one watching me. I almost cringed remembering the fire. My gaze went to the next one in line- Edward.

His striking face was twisted in shame. He was looking at the ground. He must have felt my gaze- or heard someone's thoughts- and looked up at me. He looked up at me. His messy bronze hair was in disarray on his head, and his topaz eyes saw right through me. He was so stunning it amazed me. How could someone so wonderful be so beautiful? I was so thankful that he couldn't read my thoughts.

"I'm Edward," he finally said smiling at me. I felt breathless after staring at him. I looked towards everyone.

"Hello, I'm Isabella Swan. Call me Bella, please," I introduced. There was a strange itching feeling in my throat. I cleared it, but it didn't change.

"Welcome to the family!" Emmett said. I smiled; I liked the sound of that.

"So you'll stay?" Esme asked. I nodded at her. She grinned widely, and rushed by my side to hug me. I was shocked at her gesture, but hugged her back. I saw Alice smirk at me, and Rosalie smiled too. Rosalie's smile looked a lot more natural now. Esme let go of me, and resumed her position by Carlisle.

"Are you feeling thirsty yet?" Carlisle asked.

"Is that what hat itching feeling in my throat is?" I asked.

"Yes. Why don't you go hunting?" he offered I nodded.
