Bella's Point of View.
"I'm leaving today." Rose announced to me as I got into her car.
I frowned. "Alright."
She smiled reassuringly. "It's okay, Bella. I'll be back in three days."
"I shouldn't be missing anymore school." I said as she started to drive to Port Angles.
"You're still sick."
"I was never sick in the first place."
She winked. "According to Carlisle you are."
"Thank you for driving me to the book store."
"No need to thank me. I like spending time with you. After all these years...You know, you act just like her," She grinned at me. "She even had the eyes..." She shrugged to herself. "It's no problem, Bella."
I was really tempted to beg her not to leave, but instead flashed her a smile and looked out the window. I saw a flash of white and blinked. I had felt like I was being watched, but too afraid to tell anyone. It was more likely I was going crazy than being stalked.
She pulled into the nearest Barnes and Noble and parked the car.
"I'll meet you in the checkout line." She said.
"Alright."
We went our separate ways and I passed a book shelf and stopped in my tracks, walking back to the book. 'Reincarnation.'
I pulled it out of the shelf and started to breeze through the pages.
The vast rhythmic process by which the soul, the part of a person which belongs to the formless non-material and timeless worlds, unfolds its spiritual powers in the world and comes to know itself. It descends from sublime, free, spiritual realms and gathers experience through its effort to express itself in the world. Afterwards there is a withdrawal from the physical plane to successively higher levels of Reality, in death, a purification and assimilation of the past life...
Awareness of past lives, dreams, and soul travel are spiritual disciplines practiced by students of Eckankar. Eckankar teaches that each person is Soul, which transcends time and space. Soul travel is a term specific to Eckankar that refers to a shift in consciousness. Eckists believe the purpose of being aware of past lives is to help with understanding personal conditions in the present...
Past reincarnation, usually termed "past lives", is a key part of the principles and practices of the Church of Scientology. Scientologists believe that the human individual is actually an immortal thetan, or spiritual entity, that has fallen into a degraded state as a result of past-life experiences. Scientologyauditing is intended to free the person of these past-life traumas and recover past-life memory, leading to a higher state of spiritual awareness...
I closed the book, it letting out a tiny, thump. After putting it onto it's shelf I started to search for Rosalie. I found her sitting at the Starbucks part of the store. She looked up at me and gave me a bright smile.
I sat next to her and bit my lip. "Reincarnation."
She furrowed her eyebrows, clearly puzzled. I repeated the word and she gave a tiny gasp.
"Y-You really are my sister." I mumbled. I, of course, had my doubts. Oddly enough, I had doubts about being Rose's sister, not her being a vampire. Something was wrong with me.
She nodded. "I knew you were."
I threw my arms around her, holding her tightly. "We looking nothing alike."
"You looked like father."
"Oh." I murmured. I pulled away, blushing at the attention that we were getting. "Perhaps we should go."
"What about your books?" She questioned.
"I can get them some other time."
The phone on the table buzzed and Rose glanced at it. "I'll take you home. Alice wants to leave soon."
Rosalie's Point of View.
I drove slower than usual, nervous about letting Bella go. I had a bad feeling. On top of that, I was annoyed at myself. Reincarnation. Why had I not thought about that before? It made the most sense.
Unfortunately we eventually arrived to her house. I gave Bella a small smile. Was she Bella, or Marie?
She may have been Marie, but she's Bella now. My conscious told me.
I ruffled her hair playfully. "I'll be back on Monday."
"I–" She started, but stopped, changing her words. "I'll miss you. You've been here everyday, it's going to be odd without you around. Dad will think so too." She smiled. "But have fun!"
"I'll catch a bear or two for you." I winked and she laughed before getting out.
I waited until she safely in her house before shooting down the street.
Bella's Point of View.
On Saturday night Dad and I sat in the living room in comfortable silence as the TV played baseball.
He suddenly cleared his throat uncomfortable. "Bells?"
I looked up, smiling. "Yes?"
"Well, um, I was wondering if maybe you would like to m-meet someone."
"Who?" I asked curiously.
"Her name is Renée. I've been seeing her for a while." He blushed. "She really wants to meet you."
I blinked. "You're dating?"
He ducked his head. "Well, yeah."
I was overcome with happiness and smiled brightly. "I would love to meet her."
"Great." He exclaimed. "Because, she's, um, coming over right now. We're going out on a date..."
"I'll get it." I said as there was a knock at the door. I opened the door to find a woman with laugh lines and light brown hair.
She grinned. "Is Charlie here?"
I nodded and turned around to yell for him. "Dad!" I looked back at her smiling shyly. "You must be Renèe."
"Yes, I am." Her eyes were bright with child-like wonder. "You're Bella?"
Dad walked into the hallway, greeting Renée with a kiss.
"I've heard so much about you." She said enthusiastically. "He couldn't stop talking about you."
I blushed and so did Dad.
"Well, you want to go?" Charlie asked. "If that's alright with you, Bella."
I waved a hand away. "You kids have fun."
They both laughed and Charlie kissed me goodbye. Renée – boldly – hugged me goodbye.
I heaved a sigh, running my fingers through my hair. I know he wouldn't ditch me like Lauren did. Dad wasn't like that, and Renée really seemed to like me. I walked upstairs and into my room, falling asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.
Rosalie's Point of View.
I lunged at the bear, but was suddenly pulled away. I growled lowly but stopped when I saw it was Esme.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"Alice. She's having a vision. I can't get her out of it."
I ran with Esme and found Alice leaned against a tree looking at her surrounding with blank eyes.
"Alice?" I called.
She started to sob and ran towards me. "It's Bella."
I stole the reincarnation entry from wiki. :D But who doesn't?
