2. Waking up
"She's waking up!" I heard someone say, probably Alice. "Come on!" definitely Alice. I opened my eyes to six Cullen's standing around me, Jasper was not in sight. My vision was still blurred. I stood up and I could see perfectly. I felt no more pain. I tried to stand up.
"Wow there, Bella. Be careful," Emmett laughed his rough laugh. He was right, I felt a little weak and my head started to throb. He laughed again.
"Bella!" Edward exclaimed, already at my side helping me up. Standing up, I immediately felt better. He hugged me.
"Edward I-," He put his finger to my lips.
"Listen," he whispered. The room was completely silent. I didn't understand what I should've been hearing.
"I don't hear anything," I whispered. He smiled.
"Exactly!" he laughed at my confused expression. "Bella-"
"Welcome to the family Bella! I mean, you were part of the family, but now it's official!" Esme wrapped me in a motherly hug. I then understood my last birthday present. I wrapped Edward in a hug.
"Thank you Edward!" I hugged him. I wasn't crying. A plus.
"Your welcome my love," he laughed again. "Do you know what you can do?" He meant like the powers the Cullen's have. For example, Edward can read minds. I laughed; it even surprised my self I laughed.
"I've been a vampire officially for less than a day. What do you think?" he laughed at my sarcasm. I joined in, but stopped suddenly. "Where's Jasper?" Edward looked serious.
"Hunting. He will be back soon. Then, you and I will go hunting," he said with a wicked grin.
"Now, I can see what it looks like to hunt!" I exclaimed laughing. Alice, Emmett, and Rosalie laughed too.
"This is no laughing matter Bella. If you don't hunt soon, you might kill people unintentionally in Forks." I stopped laughing. I walked over to the mirror. Edward looked confused.
"I have to see what I look like," he rolled his eyes and was at my side instantly. I was not Isabella Swan anymore. I was now Isabella Hale. I knew I had to be a Hale because when we moved place to place, after high school in every place, Edward and I would get married. I looked in the mirror, astonished. My skin was as white as Edwards, not surprising, but my hair was a brilliant shade of brown that radiated my skin. My eyes were now red, red with thirst. I walked to where I was in front of the mirror to watch myself. I was almost as graceful as Alice. I started to run around the house. Everyone was confused by what I was doing. I didn't fall, another plus. When I came back Edward laughed.
"Wow, you didn't fall, congrats!" he laughed. "Now lets go hunting!" he gave me a wicked smile and we ran to the forest.
