9. Reaction

"Can we go down to the family now Edward I'm sure they would all want to know I'm awake?" he nodded smiling he then helped her down stairs because her legs were stiff from three full days of not walking. Everyone smiled as they saw her enter the kitchen leaning on Edwards arm and sit her down gently in a near by chair Carlisle came over with his beg "Do you mind if I examine you just to be sure nothing went wrong with your change?" she nodded that it was ok was Carlisle looked at her she heard Edward speak "I think Bella has an extra abilities like Alice and I, I think she has a very acute sense of smell when she woke up she could smell two humans who were at least ten miles out" they all looked at her surprised "As Edward told me that's very unusual for a new born like myself to be able to smell that far he said even most older vampires couldn't smell that far, and may I add those humans smelled just awful" they all laughed and nodded and Esme said "Even in my 'old' age can't always smell that far, you know if this is an extra ability I believe it will come in handy when we hunt, and speaking of hunting we'll probably take you out in a few couple days if you start getting thirsty" she nodded "I don't think the desire for human blood will be my forte when I woke up I was much more attracted to a deer I smelled" they smiled and Carlisle said "I think you'll be fine as you said before this change was both your choice as well as you've spent enough time around us that I think that helped you to control any craving and desire to hurt humans, Also your homework's on the table your professors said you could finish your lessons from home for the remainder of the year" Bella groaned she didn't want to do homework not when she was adjusting to a completely new life, however she finished it in relatively quick time despite the distractions of new smells that assaulted her senses and hearing things at greater distances. Just as she finished her last assignment she heard foot steps and smelled the sweet aroma that she now associated with Edward. She looked up as he came in holding a letter "The Volturi sent there response to our request to attend the wedding and respect our treaty with the wolves they've agreed to our terms and want us to send them wedding invitations" Bella smiled "That's wonderful, then by all means please tell Alice to send them invitations" Edward looked at her his eyes asking an unspoken question "Yes, and send one to Jacob your right he deserves the choice to go, though I can't say my fears are gone about how he will react to the invitation, I want him to have the choice to go with the rest of the pack" Edward nodded kissed her softly then turned to go look for Alice.
