Edward POV

Bella was almost complete with her transformation. I don't think I have ever seen her in this much pain, and what made it worse was that I couldn't do anything to help. All I could do was sit next to her hopelessly trying to soothe her. Although she is in so much pain, her body is repaired. In fact, so far she has the most enticing figure I think I have ever seen.

She has a perfect hourglass petite body, with soft curves in all of the right places. Each thigh was supple and smooth. Her beautiful porcelain skin was iridescent and creamy. Her rich chocolate mahogany silky hair cascaded down her shapely shoulders outlining the contours of her perfect breasts. Her slender and beautiful stomach would rise and fall with each breath accentuating her perfect hips. Perhaps one of my personal new favorite parts of Bella, are her long, lustrous, sinful legs that stream down into her perfect small and delicate ankles. Bella had always had an angelic beauty, but this beauty in which she possessed was far more flawless than anything I have ever seen before. Even though she was so seamless, her face was still pained.

I felt guilty ogling Bella now. She had been through so much physical and emotional pain I should focus on comforting her. I wonder if she will remember what happened. What if she doesn't? Do we tell her and hurt her all over again? I can't lie to her. She let out a soft moan of discomfort. Alice strolled into the room.

"How is she doing?" she questioned, even though she knew.

"In pain, but I think she'll be done soon. How long do you figure?" I pressed.

"Approximately twelve minutes. Edward, I must warn you, when she wakes up you might pass out."

"What?" She was blocking her mind. Damn her!

"I'm just warning you." She winked and skipped out of the room with mischief painted across her face.



"Bella, you're almost done. Twelve, now eleven minutes longer." I stroked her honeyed hair from her cheek. Though she was no longer "alive", she still managed to keep her rosy complexion. It was faint, but was there none the less.

I grew restless waiting for Bella to wake up. I could not wait to see her smile, to hear her laugh; light and heavenly caress my ears. I began to hum something new I had been writing for her. It was still not perfect and worthy of her small fragile ears, but I will make it perfect.

Lost in trying to find the right notes for my latest piece, I felt Bella stir next to me on the bed. Her eyes fluttered open revealing two burgundy eyes set into her pale heart shaped face. Her face was so different, beautiful of course, perhaps even more so. Her pink lips full and inviting, her high cheekbones, that cute little button nose. She blinked a few times and slowly a smile crept onto her face as she leaned in and kissed me. This must have been what Alice was referring to, because this was probably the most pleasurable thing ever. Her smooth tongue traced the contours of my lips and then proceeded to beg for entrance as they gently flicked my teeth.

As much as I desperately wanted this, I knew where this was going. I felt like the stupidest, most vile being in the world but I had to draw this to an end. Much to her dismay, I pulled away and instead embraced her into a passionate hug. "Passionate hug, yeah that's exactly what she wants." I thought to myself.

"My, my, you truly are the most beautiful creature I have ever imagined could exist."

"You really should look in a mirror, you might reconsider."

"Bella, you are so absurd, but I absolutely adore you. How are you feeling?"

"Weird. I feel so like refreshed, and awake. My vision is so crisp and my hearing is really sensitive. Is it always like this?"

"You'll get used to it, but yes." At that she jumped off the bed and walked around the bedroom so gracefully. My eyes were almost watering at the sight of those hips swaying side to side as if she were dancing to slow rhythmic music.

"I HEAR OUR LITTLE VAMP SISTER!" Emmett then bust through the door with Rosalie slowly following behind. Their expressions quickly changed at one glance at Bella. Emmett's to sheer confusion and shock, and Rosalie's to jealousy and amazement.

"Uhh…err… oh my God…Bella? Geez..." Emmett stammered out. Rose then slapped him upside the head reminding him that she was still there.

"EMMETT!" Bella ran from across the room with such grace and speed and pounced on her older brother nearly bringing him down. She then got up and walked over to Rose.

"Hi Rose…" She hesitantly tried to hug Rose and was successful, but the mood in the room at that point definitely was awkward.



"Bella, have you seen yourself yet?" Rose questioned as they pulled away.

"What? No, why is it that bad?" She froze still.

"No Bella, you're absolutely stunning, here let me show you." Rose grabbed Bella's arm and brought her over to the mirror. At first no emotion reached Bella's face.

"Bella, that's you. You look amazing!" Rose was genuine and really wanted to welcome Bella more appropriately into her new life as a Cullen. I could not be any happier with this.

"That can't be. That just can't be. I don't understand!" Bella touched the mirror and freaked out when the reflection mirrored her every movement. I walked over to an awed Bella.

"Darling, you're absolutely gorgeous. You've always been." I took her hand and held it to my face. She gently smiled and then swallowed hard. I knew what was coming next.

"Looks like someone's got a case of the MUNCHIES!" Emmett exclaimed. He was right though, she was obviously thirsty.

"Come on Bella, let's go find Alice and the rest of the family and say hello. Then we need to talk to Carlisle." She nodded and followed me down the stairs, still subconsciously watching her every step. Unfortunatley, there was still this one step that gave her trouble that she had forgotten about and slid down the stairs. Her reflexes quickly took over and she stopped short. She grimaced and reached out for my hand as a hysterical Emmett walked over her.

"Some things just never change!" His laughter boomed throughout the house and even Bella chuckled a little bit. I cannot imagine my life without this woman. I cannot imagine my life without this angel.
