Hello! So, I have decided to do a little something. This is just for Christmas/Xmas. This series will include 12 one-shots of Bella and a character, majorly Twilight Verse. I will be including two outside vampires: Angel and Spike.

Also! This will be my very first Edward/Bella ship.

These will be the included characters: Carlisle, Jasper, Sam, Paul, Edward, Peter, Garrett, Caius, Alistair, Aro, Angel, Spike.

All characters belong to their creators. I own nothing but the plot.

On the 1st Day of Christmas ~ Edward

Summary: Bella turned at the end of Twilight. This is her first Christmas as a vampire.

Edward POV

I always thought that I'd be damming Bella's soul if she ever became like me. If she ever became the monster I became. I was happy to be wrong. I regretfully couldn't save her the night James bit her, and just watching her writhe there, screaming, was like someone had ripped a hole through my chest. I always thought she was beautiful before, but she was exquisite now. Her laughter filled my soul with warmth as I watched her carefully hand Alice an ornament.

As if she could feel me, she turns towards me, a smile on her face. I grin back at her, her blood orange eyes shining with love. The twinkling lights capture her her attention moments later, a typical thing for a vampire her age.

Isn't this nice?

I turn my gaze towards Carlisle who was smiling at the girls. Esme, Alice, and even Rosalie had joined to help Bella set up the tree. I only nod, looking upon my family for the first time in what I would call happiness. Pure happiness.

I could tell the moment Jasper decided to expand on my feelings as everyone started to break out into a smile. Bella, I knew was giddy with positive energy as she bounced on her feet, lightly humming. My smile only expanded as Alice stilled, and her thoughts filtered through for me to see. I stand from the loveseat, quickly moving to Bella's side. She looks up at me, this time none too surprised by my speed. I hold out my hand for her to take to which she instantly grasps, and I gently pull her along to the front door.

This would be her first time seeing snow. After leaving Washington, we moved to Oregon. It wasn't far from Washington, simply because I promised Bella that I'd look out for Charlie. She couldn't bear to let him think she were dead right now, so we came up with a cover that she had decided to do studying abroad. Charlie managed to accept it, and Alice saw that he wouldn't question it, as long as he could see Bella once a year. Bella could maybe manage for three years before we'd have to 'kill' her off. Bella's turning only seemed to make her look slightly older, not too noticeable but she could pass for maybe three more years until Charlie would get suspicious.

I hated that she would be upset, but it was a necessity. I wrap my arms around her waist, watching the first few flakes of snow drop. "It's so pretty," Bella murmurs, her head moving back and forth as she tried to watch it all fall at once. "It is," I agree. We watch the snow fall for a few more minutes, and Bella graceful waltzes from my grasp, stepping outside. She twirls around, catching the flakes in her hand, her face a flickering of emotions.

She's going to love it.

Alice thinks to me, and I can only chuckle. Of course. I then wondered if she meant the snow or my gift.

Both.

Right. It doesn't take long for the snow to stick, and within the hour, there was enough snow to at least make a few snowballs with. Bella made us all feel like we were young again. That excitement of new things. Like we were human. She had that ability when alive, and even now as she and Emmett playfully tussle. "Emmett!" I warn, none too worried for Bella but my brother when he'd do what he plans on doing. Bella had the temperament of a newborn, though it has since tampered down, but certain things still annoyed her. Emmett just grins and I roll my eyes.

"You know Emmett's been dying to wrestle with Bella," Jasper snickers, laying a hand on my shoulder. I can't help but chuckle as well as we share a knowing look.

She's going to kick his ass

Jasper's thoughts made me almost laugh with the image that popped into his head, but I held it in, some part of me entertained at this soon display of events.

The first snowball tossed in Bella's hair had her confused, and she almost looked like a lost puppy as she stared at the droplet of snow that lingered on her shoulders. She went to touch it, most likely wondering how it wasn't cold. She doesn't have a chance to however as Emmett throws another snowball at her, hitting her right in the face. Emmett grins, but it slowly falls off as I know Bella was regarding him with a look of hell. I could hear her annoyed growl, and with interest, I watched as she was quicker than even to our eyes, ramming into Emmett. The sound was like thunder as she crashed into him.

"Should we stop them?" Esme murmurs, and I shake my head with a grin. "She's having fun mom," I reply, unable to catch her thoughts as I was too preoccupied. Bella takes a handful of snow, shoving it into Emmett's face. I can only burst into laughter as Emmett holds up his hands in surrender. He lets her be after that, letting her enjoy the snow.

After a while, Bella decided to come back inside, and Carlisle put on some Christmas music. I knew this was the perfect moment when everyone went off with their partner into their separate areas of the house, leaving Bella and I alone. She tucked herself under my arm, staring at the twinkling lights on the tree. I ran my fingers through her hair, smiling to myself. "Bella?" I whisper. "Hmmm?" She looks up at me, a small smile tugging at her lips. I cleared my throat, a human habit, and reaches into my pocket. Her eyes snap down to the box in my hand, and she meets my eyes as I open the red velvet box.

I pull out the gold chain, the amber heart catching her eyes. "It was my mothers. She always told me to give it to the one, and since I met you, as much as I tried to deny it….it was always meant to be you. I know that if I get to spend forever with you, this existence becomes worth living," She steps closer to me, eyes pooling with venom. I brush her hair from her shoulders, and reach behind her, clasping the necklace around her neck. I smile as I brush my knuckles across her cheeks. "Merry Christmas Love, and many more to come,"

An: This was…hard, not even gonna lie. It was fun and interesting writing Edward. Happy Holidays everyone! Another character will be up tomorrow. These won't be very long and I'm going to try to wrap them up in one chapter so…See ya!
