Chapter 25

Around 2:30 am Edward rolled over and finally let go of me for which I was thankful. I slowly got off the bed and went out to the little balcony. I laid down and looked at the sky and thought some things over.

I cant believe the Cullen's just let me stay here without a reason there must be some kind of catch. But I shouldn't stay here. I am a monster. I will leave Saturday afternoon. (it is early Thursday morning right now) I decided. It was a mistake coming here. But I couldn't help myself, I am a selfish creature.

I shape-shifted into a bat and decided to roam the town. I didn't want to stop my Charlie's yet. I went to the school and of course got in undetected. I shape-shifted back to myself and walked to my locker. Well what used to be my locker. Everything was gone. I was hoping Charlie took it back home. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath to relax myself than I changed into a bat again and flew down to the Cullen's.

When I got there I heard some people getting up I quickly got on the balcony and changed into human form. Edward wasn't up yet so I ran to the bathroom to put some drips of water on my face like I was crying. Then I ran back out and laid on the balcony and closed my eyes. So they don't try to make me fall asleep during the day. After a few minutes I heard Edward groan and had to stop myself from laughing. I heard the springs of the bed after he got up.

Edward walked into the bathroom then all of a sudden his heart rate went fast.. Probably looking for me. He ran back out and relaxed when he saw me on the balcony. I heard him walking over. "Bella." He whispered. I felt him picking me up and I listened to his beautiful heart beats. Then all of a sudden I had this weird feeling. My throat started to burn. That usually doesn't happen around humans. Edward must be my singer. I wanted his blood so badly. Before he put my on the bed I rolled out of his hands and fell on to the floor. Luckily I didn't break the floor.

I groaned and rolled over. I rubbed my eyes like I was waking up. Edward ran over to me. "Bella?? Are you alright?" He asked. He took my hand and pulled me up. "Just peachy." I answered. He chuckled. I quickly got into the shower and then got dressed. I listened to their conversation they were having downstairs.

"Where is Bella?" Alice asked. "In the shower. I am worried about her." Edward said. "Why?" Emmett asked. "Well this morning I awoke to find her on the balcony. Asleep on the balcony. Her cheeks were wet with tears." He said. "Is she alright?" Esme asked. Always showing concern. "I believe so." Edward said. "What was the noise? Did something break in your room?" Jasper asked. I could feel Edward's embarrassment. "Well I picked Bella up to bring her to the bed. And at that moment she decided to roll over. So she kind of rolled out of my hands and hit the floor." Edward said. I heard Emmett's booming laughter.

I closed my eyes and shook my head. Boys will be boys. I walked down the stairs slowly. Which sucked. Too slow. "Good morning, dear." Esme said. "Good morning Esme. Good morning everyone." I said and took a seat next to Edward. Who kissed me on the cheek. "Bella what would you like for breakfast?" She asked. "I don't really need to choose, Esme. Please have one of your children choose. I couldn't intrude." I said. All conversation stopped and they stared at me. Shit. I forgot that I know bigger words now. I laughed in the inside. "No thanks. I am not hungry." I said. Good. Simple. Everyone shared worried looks but didn't push it.

"Bella did you sleep alright?" Carsile asked. I laughed again in the inside. "Just peachy." I said. "Are you sure? You have shadows under your eyes. And your eyes seem darker somehow." He sad. Crap. I haven't gone hunting in a while. I have not gone since like 2 weeks. "I am fine." I said through gritted teeth. And there they go again. The worried glances. Emmett decided to lighten up the mood. "I heard Eddie dropped you this morning." I rolled my eyes. "Kids, school." Esme said. They all left. And Carsile left leaving Esme and me.

"Bella. You should call your father." She said shyly. I felt my anger start coming up. "No." I growled. She looked like she was going to cry. "I am so sorry, Esme. I didn't mean to snap at you. I am going out." I said. I was going to go hunting. "No, Bella. I want you to stay here today." She said. "Esme I am leaving this house now. I have things to do." I growled. "Isabella you are to stay in this house. I think of you as one of my own." She said. I sighed. "Esme, do you know where I was going to go?" I asked. She just stared at me. "Hunting." I said. "Hunt-Hunting." She stuttered. "Yes, I am going to kill some animals." I said.

"Why?" She asked. "Because I have to feed off their blood." I said. Her face went pale. "Don't tell anyone Esme. But you are right. Yes, I am a vampire."
