Bella's POV
I ran towards the throne room when I heard Aro called me.
"Yes Aro?"
"Bella I want you to know that if you and Victoria wanted to leave you could and explore life outside the castle. I know you've been wanted to go back to Forks and try living on your own and finish high school." He said.
"Are you serious!?" I asked jumping up and down. He nodded his head and I ran to give him a hug. Once my body made contact with his I was able to read his thoughts. He really wanted me to be happy even if that was away from the Volturi. I ran to Victoria's room to tell her but once I got there her stuff was already packed and she was ready to go.
That same day we were on a plane on our way to Forks. I was so excited to see Charlie. He knew that I was a vampire now and surprisingly he took it well.
-flashback-
It's been two days since I woke up a vampire and I knew that I was going to have to tell Charlie. I was scared about how he would react because the whole reason why he sent me away was to protect me from James and now I am a vampire.
"Just stop worrying and call him." Victoria said as she threw me my phone. She was right. I sighed and dialed his number. I hoped that he was at work so I could put this off for another day but nope the world hates me because on the fourth ring he answered.
"Hello?"
"Dad?"
"Bells is that you?"
"Unless you have another daughter I don't know about then yeah it's me dad." I laughed
"You sound different."
"Yeah about that listen dad I need to tell you somethings but please don't interrupt until I finish ok?"
"Ok."
"About five days ago James came back for me in Arizona. At this time he had another vampire with him, Victoria. She came to me and told me about James and Laurent but she wanted to help me. She was going to take me away but before we could escape they showed up. Everything happened so fast. He grabbed me and Laurent grabbed mom. He made me watch as Laurent killed mom and James started biting me all over. Victoria was able to kill them but not before James bit me one more time but this time he used venom. When Victoria got to me it was too late. I woke up two days ago as a vampire in Italy. There's a royal vampire family here that's been helping me adjust to this life but I miss you." I whispered the last part.
"I miss you too Bells. I don't care if you're a vampire just as long as you're safe. I owe this Victoria my life for saving you. I'm so sorry about your mom but I'm here for you sweetie. Nothing else matters."
We continued to talk about me being a vampire. I told him about skipping my newborn year and about all my powers. I can tell he was a little scared but he was happy that now I could defend myself against anyone that wanted to harm me.
-End of flashback-
I didn't tell Charlie that we were on our way I wanted to surprise him. I was jumping in my seat when we started to land. Once it was "safe" I all but ran towards the luggage area. We packed light so we could run the rest of the way. In a matter of minutes we were in front of my old house. The light in the living room was on and I could hear a baseball game.
"Are you ready?" Victoria asked. I smiled at her and nodded.
I knocked at the door and I heard Charlie mumble about having to miss the game to answer the door. When he pulled the door open he froze. He started at us until he passed out. I rolled my eyes and picked him up to place him on the couch. Victoria grabbed a glass of water from the kitchen and we waited for him to wake up.
"Bells?"
"Hi dad." I slightly waved from where I was sitting.
"What are you doing here?" I can tell he was still shocked to see me after so many years.
"Surprise."
The rest of the night Charlie got to know Victoria. We told him that we were going to start going to school and live there with him. He was so excited to have me back and Victoria was just a plus. He was completely dazzled by her. The next day we decided to go buy a car and go shopping courtesy of our Volturi credit cards. We had decided that I was going to alter our appearances so that we could stay in Forks for longer than a couple of years. We were going to keep the majority of our looks but I was going to change our eye color and give us a low heartbeat. I made Victoria look my age so that we could both pass as juniors in high school.
By our third day in Forks we were ready to start school. The small town was already gossiping about Charlie's daughter returning with her "cousin." I can already imagine all the stares we would be getting tomorrow. It was six thirty a.m. when Victoria and I started to get ready. Charlie wished us good luck before heading off to work around seven. Forty minutes later we decided to get on our way. Victoria drove into the parking lot and all eyes were already on us.
As soon as I stepped out of the car I could feel my body absorbing three new powers. I gasped as I was hit with everyone's emotions and thoughts. I was happy that Victoria and I could talk to each other in our minds thanks to that nomad vampire that visited the Volturi before we left.
"Bells do you smell them?"
"Yeah I can smell five different vampires. Three of them have powers."
"What kind of powers? You don't look so good."
"One is a mind reader so I'm going to put my shield around you. The second is an empath. I don't know what the third power is yet." I told her.
"Are you going to be okay?"
Just before I could answer her my eyes froze as pictures ran through my mind. I felt Victoria grab my wrist and then images stopped.
"A family of vegetarians, two couples and one single male. Edward, Emmett, Jasper, Alice and Rosalie. We're going to have Rosalie and Jasper in our first period but we'll meet the rest at lunch. I guess the last power was visions."
Victoria and I continued our way to the office to get our papers. We had all but two classes together. The bell rang so we made our way towards art class. The teacher signed our papers and made us sit in the only two seats available which was at their table. I listened to their thoughts.
"Are they vampires as well? They smell like it and kind of look like vampires but they're eyes are brown and I hear two heartbeats. They are beautiful though." -Rosalie
"I can't feel their emotions. Are they humans or vampires? We need to figure out what's going on. Why didn't Alice have a vision of them?" –Jasper
"I'm going to start a conversation with them." I thought to Victoria.
I ripped out a piece of paper and began writing. (Bold-Bella and italic- Rosalie underlined- Jasper)
"You're family are vampires." I stated before sliding the paper to Rosalie.
"Who are you and how do you know?"
"I'm Bella and this is Victoria. We're vampires too."
"How? I can hear your heartbeats and your eyes are brown. I've never heard of vampires with brown eyes."
"It's my power."
"I can't feel your emotions or Victoria's. Why?"
"Also my power."
"You have more than one?"
"Yes."
"Would you like to sit with us at lunch? We have three more with us here at school."
I nodded and smiled at them before working on the project the teacher had assigned. I looked up from my paper and caught Jasper staring at me before quickly looking away.
There's the fourth chapter people. Thanks for those of you who are reviewing. I love reading what you guys have to say! Tell me what you guys think of this chapter. The Cullens will be in the next one. I just want to make something clear. The Volturi is okay with Charlie knowing about vampires seeing as how it was the wolves that told him. All the stuff that is in Italic is either a flashback (which I will label) or thoughts.
Read on and Review thank you!
