Switched

Hi everyone. Welcome to my twilight story. There will be much romance in this story since I'm a fan in romance. Reading the first book from Stephanie Meyer was so much fun it was hard to put the book down. I'm looking forward to reading the next one and hope it's as great as the first one.

Author notes: Okay this story will take place in between both of the books. I thought it might make it more exciting to see what more adventures Bella would have at age 17 well she might remain that age or not. Bella, cullens, and all other characters will speak throughout the story.

Disclaimer: Sad but true I don't own Twilight. Property of Edward, Bella and other characters in Twilight belong to Stephanie Meyer. Though I do own the plot and my oc character Hayden. We'll see him in later chapters.

Here comes Summary: After Bella had wished for Edward during prom to make her immortal she lost hope of being with Edward forever. Plagued by dreams of getting old was getting to her. Rosalie has always envied Bella for being a human. Yet there dreams remain untouched that is until Laurent and Victoria cross paths with a mysterious vampire that might be related to Edward.

Alright what you've been waiting for Hope you like!

Prologue- A night of despair

I remember that day at my prom as Edward took me into the night sky as the stars glittered with pure delight. His eyes were soft and friendly leading me through a place where we could be alone. So many trees were present and the grass had finally gained back its color. The good part was that winter was gone so I was eager for spring. The gym was a sight from the hill we were lying on. Many sounds could be heard, trees were rustling, and I closed my eyes to enjoy the surroundings, sounds until I heard his cold breath in my ear

"I knew you would like it here" he said with that heart warmed smile I always enjoyed watching though it was hard to see in the dark

"It's very peaceful here" I whispered softly when his face came to rest in my hair. It felt so good for him to hold me. His arms wrapped around my waist.

"Too bad we can't stay here forever" when that word "forever" came to his lips my face had fallen a bit. Thinking about living forever was something new for me. Edward was able to have that eternal life and I on the other hand was waiting any second to see wrinkles appear my face. Life was never fair. Again I heard that musical voice noticing that I had a lot on my mind

"You seem a little preoccupied tonight" he said calmly.

"So you noticed" I replied sarcastically. My face moved to look at the bright yellow moon bounce the wonderful light into the hill making our shadows appear on the ground.

"Tell me what you're thinking about" tense as a buggy this handsome hunk seemed to be concerned about my thoughts. Maybe he knew…might as well tell him. His hand moved to touch my hair and smoothed back softly. I changed my words and said

"Well I can tell you that I've always dreamed of this night" I gestured to the yellow moon and Edward looked in my direction. He grinned wickedly at me

"I know you have, this will be your first and only prom you'll ever have" His arms moved slightly from me.

"Yes and after that…" I trailed off with a sad voice. Edward was suspicious about my thoughts; the least I could do was shift away from him and raise my knees placing my arms with my head bowed down. He was slightly amused with my mood. Talking about my age was always hard to do. I would turn 18 in 1 month, close to my graduation. But Edward would be always 17.

"I just wish that I could be with you forever" he frowned at my words and closed his eyes in slight irritation.

"Becoming a monster is not something you would want" his voice started heating up. I was hoping he would change his mind.

"But staying with you for a lifetime means more to me than anything in the world" I wasn't angry yet just disappointed in his answers

"That's not the point Bella" he answered in a hard soft voice. I moved my hair to expose my white neck to him. He started chuckling in a hearty sound. I didn't find it hysterical though…

"Edward you look hungry" his laughter seemed to rise in volume.

"What kind of hunger are you referring too?" he asked teasingly and moved his perfect lips to my neck. His touch made my heart skip a beat. This drew me to the point of sweet torment. Yet… my life was in jeopardy every time he got close to that one spot that tempted most of his family.

With some surprise he growled and began kissing it as he cradled my head. Before I knew it I was on the ground feeling the soft grass against my back. It was hard to contain my amusement. Guess I know why everyone was looking forward to their prom year. I could hear his kissing, moving his way up to my earlobe. He stopped and added more seriously

"Bella I couldn't think of seeing you that way, you wouldn't begin to realize how hard it is to control your hunger" I touched his chest and my eyes remained there.

"So you think that having an old harpy by your side would make you want to stay with me?" Edward had gotten annoyed with my difficult behavior

"You really are absurd" he mused

"And you are not good at negotiating" I shot back with a solemn voice. He sighed hard and with a tense say

"Let the matter drop for now" he said pleading to me. I looked away from him but he forced my chin back, with his beautiful pale face staring directly at mine.

"Bella?" he warned

"For now I guess…" he brought back his grin. I got raised from the grass and continued to stare at the moon again. Edward placed his arm around my shoulder.

"The moon is so big today" I commented amazed by its beauty. Yellow and bright it gave so much light.

"This is the greatest time when I can go hunting" I froze at his words and he chuckled again only to inflame me as I looked away from him. His arm forced me back to his side when I made an attempt to move away and stand up.

"Not so fast, I want us to stay here a while longer" I surrendered to his touch and remained in his arms. He hugged me closer and felt his hard chest behind my back. My even breathing could be heard by Edward. It reminded me of that day he was listening to my heart. Pressed tenderly against my chest I had felt how much he loved me in that moment.

The lasting of sitting down together was a precious moment for me. So priceless and endless it was to gaze at the gorgeous scenery in front of us. A few shooting stars were out in the black patched sky. My dozing was interrupted a while later, his voice raspy and lazily

"You want to go back and dance?" he asked cheerfully as he looked back at the small gym with its lights and music playing profoundly. Dancing was the only thing I was bad at and looking at my swollen leg with a cask I moaned as he picked me up with mockery

"Come now, or I'll have to pick you up by force and run back" the thought of him running at that incredible speed brought my face white and green.

"That's what I thought" he said thoughtfully which brought a glare to my face. He continued lifting the corners of his mouth. I guess he wouldn't listen to me no matter how hard I tried to convince him.

We walked down the hill and passed a trail with a few trees. There were some faded lights in the way. Has it been that long since I've been with Edward? His family was so amazing that it reminded me of all the great things they had. Nice cars, nice quiet house to live in, and have a chance to be in the future. Edward would be able to see all the changes from generation to generation. The wind was picking up and I hugged myself feeling how cold my skin was. Edward noticed right away so he took of his black tuxedo jacket and put it around me.

"Thanks" I said quietly with my teeth chattering. He grabbed my hand and nodded curtly.

"I can feel how warm your skin is but looking at your pink face…" he stopped to place it between his icy hands.

"I'm use to sunny places, but because I love you so much I sacrificed my part to be in Forks" I said in a banter tone.

"Hmm you really mean that" it wasn't a question. Edward knew everything about me though it was hard to read my thoughts at moments.

"I'll get you to like snow one way or another…" his repartee ness was getting me ready to pounce on him.

"Not if I get you to try ravioli first" I interjected with his glare already on his beautiful face.

"That's what I thought" I was having a great time with this argument. But he wasn't looking at me. He had an uptight look in him. What's with him now?

"Edward…" I started but he covered my mouth with his hand and pulled me closer to his side.

"Shhh" he wisped in short breaths so he could hear. My heart started pounding. Maybe someone was watching us…and I think he knew it better than I did. His started walking at a fast pace passing the faded lampposts. The leaves started falling of the ground and the wind got a bit stronger. My mouth was shut with no breath left thanks to my fear. He went inside a little forest and took me inside the trees. The lights were not visible so my breathing evened a little. I knew I wasn't safe in Edwards arms at the moment but it didn't matter to me. His sense of smell was incredible. It reminded me of a blood hound. We were about 100 yards away from the gym so it was in the school grounds. His ears were open to wait anytime for a shadow to cross our hiding spot. The tree we were behind was very thick. I felt Edwards arms tighten over me and forced me in the hard corded trunk. My back tickled from the sharp wood going into my eternal love's jacket. I had to say something

"Edward what's going on?" he didn't answer but I pressed

"If you don't tell me know I'll…" my voice paused when I saw that humor come back into his features. He bent his façade to mine and such tenderness was visible in those golden brown eyes.

"Nothing, I thought there was someone following us" I was annoyed for his anxiety and to see him smiling again a moment later

"Edward you never cease to amaze me" my sarcasm had returned and he tweaked my nose with his fingertips and grabbed a lock of my hair bringing it to his lips.

"Bella I enjoy your anger far more than your fear" So I had brought him to me through anger. Isn't that ironic

"Oh look who's talking?" I retorted. His worries over excited me. What or who was watching us? Maybe Edward knew.

"Why are you being paranoid?" his eyes widen in surprise at my question.

"Me? What are you implying?" oh he wasn't going to be smart with me.

"Don't play dumb with me" I half shouted at him as he gave me that incredulous look. His eyes soften with a look deep and upsetting look in his eyes.

"I almost placed you in danger; you see this high school has had many murders before though people that go here take it lightly."

"I've been here since my childhood, you over worry yourself so much over nothing, I'll be fine, there's not anything that can separate me from you" at my words he hugged me tighter.

"What if I lose you to Laurent and Victoria, they'll not hesitate to take your life away, and I might not be fast enough to reach you in time…" his ill voice was sending shivers through my skin. He's always feared for my safety but I'm afraid that he's overdoing it. All I could think of was about his life. Has he really seen many murders before his eyes?

"Nothing will happen, maybe if you changed me my safety wouldn't be so much trouble to you" His eyes turned darker, and he chose his words carefully

"Bella, you have so much to learn about these changes, don't think about them anymore, how would you enjoy the sun, looking like a glittered jewel in front of thousands of folks?" I frowned at the question. Yeah I would miss the sun but not as much as this small town where I first fell in love.

"I've changed my mind about the sun" I said with willpower.

"Dammit Bella! How would you know what eternal life is, I was suppose to be a human like you, but destiny can't be stopped so listen to my words, Once you get eternal life, you won't be able to be close to your love ones anymore." It was true, if I got my granted wish of living the way Edward had how would I get close to Charlie or my mom and Phil? Thinking about it tied me up in a knot. Love could blind in so many ways that all I could think of was destroying my own life just to be with Edward. My confusion started to evolve.

"I love you" I cried with tears overflowing down my eyelids. Edward gathered me into his embrace. He didn't bother to answer. Instead I remained quietly in his arms. Resolving my age might be harder than I thought.

"Then stop exaggerating over your age, you'll still be my Bella old or not" did he really mean that? I asked myself unsurely. I couldn't say anything at the moment. Maybe he thought I was stupid. There wouldn't be a stop for my determination in changing. I'll find out someone that can do it. James or Laurent would be too dangerous to come across with even if it was possible for them to change me.

Without realizing I was picked up from the ground. I'll have to think about it later…

"What are you doing?" I wasn't completely disquieted.

"Taking you back" Shoot! He was going to run. I held on to him tightly.

"Don't do it" I was afraid to puke on his tuxedo.

"It won't be as fast as last time" he promised

He placed me behind his back and carried me like a child.

"You need some air" he was too overexcited. With great reflexes he took of without noticing anyone was there. His feet were light. It felt like he was running on water. The path turned smaller, leading to our parking lot. Then I had no breath left. Quicker than anything I could ever imagine he jumped up high in the class room buildings. In just a few short seconds it was over. The gym had already come into view. I cleared my vision and realized I wasn't too sick

"Maybe I should off go faster" he said thoughtfully to himself. I had a different approach

"No you won't, let's go" I said dryly. After thinking about my eternal life and staying far away from my family I didn't feel like talking to Edward much. Maybe because everything he told me was factual. It was hard to admit to something that authentic. He stared at me for a moment wondering what caused my change of tone so sudden.

"I believe…that'll have to keep a closer eye on you from now on" I huffed at him and we walked toward the gym where our friends would be waiting.

I looked behind me and all I saw was the wind blowing against my face. Something was definitely out there. I heard some foot steps. Edward looked at my puzzled expression.

"Bella?" I turned around to look at him appreciatively

"I'm coming" he held my arm as we headed back inside the gym.

A shadow had drifted away from the gym building…

First Chapter completed. Bella is frustrated with Edward at the moment, but she'll come around. Chapter 2 will be here soon. Ciao:)
