A/N: So I was suppossed to update earlier, but I didn't, sorry! I'm on vacation, well playing volleyball, in Dallas right now! So, it might be until next Tuesday or Wednesday before I can update again.

It was dark. Why was it so dark?

Oh, my eyes were closed.

The room was quiet with the exception of a few hushed voices that sounded as if they were afraid to speak too loudly. The voices were dull. It seemed like there was a fog surrounding me and those also in the room. I was comfortable at the moment so I had no desire to open my eyes and investigate the small noise of voices.

I felt oddly calm and…hard?

I wasn't sure if that was the right word that I was looking for. Where was I? For some reason I couldn't come up with that answer. I seemed disoriented and out of place. Who was I?

I rolled at that point into something. I wasn't sure what it was, but it felt like another person was laying in a bed with me.

"Bella?" A musical voice questioned.

Ah, yes, Bella. That made sense.

That voice it must have been…

"Edward! Leave her be. She will wake up in a matter of minutes. Let her enjoy the last of sleeping," a girlish voice answered Edward.

Edward! My love, my life! How could I ever forget such a beautiful voice!

"Alice, leave me to decide what it right and wrong for my wife," Edward reprimanded.

Ah, now I remembered. Alice, Jasper, Emmett, Carlisle, Esme, and Rosalie. They were all waiting for me to wake up from…my change? Had it happened?

I remembered the pain and agony I went through for the past…3 days? That was all? It felt so much longer. I wanted to see Edward. To hold and touch him for what felt like the first time all over again.

I fluttered my eyes, willing them to open fully. The first thing I saw was my family. Alice was barely able to contain her joy it seemed as she was softly bouncing in Jasper's arms. Jasper was smiling widely at me, probably because I wasn't a bother for his senses anymore. Emmett was grinning like an idiot. Rosalie…she seemed quite indifferent. She smiled hesitantly, but nothing more than that. Esme stood next to Carlisle with her hand in his, both beaming at me with full smiles.

I wanted to see them all, but the one person I wanted to see most eluded me. Alice pointed over my head. Right, he was laying next to me.

I rolled over to face Edward. He was grinning his crooked smile. He was so beautiful, I couldn't stand it!

I couldn't help myself; I grabbed his head in between my hands and kissed him full on the mouth. I heard Alice chuckle; she had seen this coming, I'm sure.

Emmett's laugh boomed throughout the room. Jasper cleared his throat, hoping to get us to stop with the lustful emotions.

His lips no longer felt cold, but normal. His skin wasn't cold or hard to me, although I could easily tell the difference between his and a human's skin.

I didn't care that the whole family was standing there watching us. I missed Edward too much to care. I pulled back, breathing hard, although it was unnecessary now that I was a vampire.

"I missed you," I stated and kissed him on the nose.

"I can see that," he chuckled.

He brushed my hair away from my face and stared deeply in my eyes.

My eyes! They must be that horrifying shade of red!

I shut them immediately. Edward must have known what I was thinking. He tilted my chin up to meet his eyes, but I still had mine closed.

"Bella," Edward sighed, "You don't need to hide your beautiful self from me. Please, open your eyes. We all know what they look like, don't worry, they will fade in time."

I opened them, still unsure as to if I wanted to actually see myself with them as they reminded me of the vampires that had tried to kill me on multiple occasions.

I turned over on the bed, Edward's arms wrapped around me. I looked at my family again. They all looked very excited. I got up off the bed and ran to Alice, impressed with how easy running came to me.

She grabbed me into a hug. "Oh, Bella! I'm so excited! Now we need to get you a whole new wardrobe, and I already purchased colored contacts for you so you will be more comfortable. Oh! I'm so happy Bella!" She squeezed me at a strength that would surely have killed me if I was human.

Ignoring the shopping comment, I turned to Jasper. This was the first time I had ever had the chance to get near enough to him to hug him. I gave him a big hug and laughed.

"I'm so excited I get to be near you now!"

He grinned widely at me, obviously being affected by the emotions in the room.

"My turn!" Emmett bounded up to me and picked me up, wrapping his burley arms around me in a death grip! "I can actually hug you now!" Emmett was having such a great time.

Edward cleared his throat, "Please, put my wife down. I really have no reason to rip your arms off at the moment, but if you hurt her, I will hurt you," a smile was playing on the edge of his lips. Emmett placed me on my feet.

I went to Rosalie. The room stilled for a minute. I embraced her gently. She responded a few seconds later, "Welcome to the family, Bella." I was quite shocked that she could accept me so easily, but I supposed now that I was one of them, she couldn't really do anything about it.

I stepped away to greet Esme and Carlisle. They both embraced me as Esme stroked my hair. She kissed my forehead, "We are so pleased to finally have you as a part of the family, Bella. You mean so much to us all. You have finally completed this family." Esme looked on the verge of tears.

Carlisle looked serious for a moment, "I'm sorry to rain on everyone's fun, but are you feeling…thirsty at all, Bella?"

I swallowed the venom, at least that's what I assumed it was, at the back of my throat. It felt a little scratchy.

"I think I am, if that's what that scratchy feeling is."

Carlisle smiled. "Yes, that's what it is. Emmett left a bit ago and brought you back something so you wouldn't have to hunt right away."

Emmett pulled out a thermos full of blood. He opened the jar and I inhaled quickly. I didn't like the smell of it: rusty and salty. I would have fainted if I was human.

I felt the need to drink it, but I didn't want to taste it. I scrunched my nose.

"Would it be at all odd if I said that that smells disgusting?" I knew that answer to that question, but I needed to validate the answer.

Carlisle's eyes widened, "Do you want it at all?"

Yes.

No.

"I'm not sure. I don't like the smell, but I'm drawn to it, like my body wants me to have it, but my mind is saying I don't," I replied unsure of what to say, feeling helpless.

"Well," Carlisle started, "I believe that you should drink it for your strength. Over the course of the next few days we will see if it is just an aversion to this particular animal."

I nodded. "What is it?"

Seeing the smile on Emmett's face, I already knew the answer.

"Grizzly bear! I can't believe you don't like it. I'm offended," he playfully pouted.

I drank the whole thermos. I didn't realize how much I wanted it until I started drinking it. The blood tasted disgusting, but I wanted it. It was warm and sticky, but it also was needed. It was a love, hate relationship.

I thrust the container into Emmett's hand and ran to Edward, curling up in his arms. I breathed in his scent, hoping to get rid of the taste in my mouth.

Edward softly held me as my family slipped out of the room. He sang my lullaby to me, effectively calming my nerves.

I buried my head into his chest further and mumbled, "I was a freak in the human world, and now I am in the vampire world!"

Edward chuckled. "You are not a freak, my beautiful Bella, just unique."

I snorted, "Same thing."

He laughed again, "Well if you are a freak, you are my little vampire freak, and I love you."

He kissed my head. I rolled my eyes and sarcastically said, "Wonderful."
