Hello! So I was at home sick and I thought, I'm bored I'll write another chapter! So here it is! Please tell me what you think! I hope you like it! Please, please please please REVIEW! It helps so much. If I get a lot of reviews I'll update really soon!
And just to clear things up if I didn't explain ti right in the last chapter, vampires don't have to breathe, but they have to have air to talk. So Bella was running out of breath to talk to Hermione. I've had a lot of questions about that. And I just thought Hermione was a tough character to handle the situation. That's why I chose her, nothing romantic. Edward and Bella forever! Hahahahaha...
Okay! Enough of me ranting! Let's get on with the story!

Chapter 7-Complicated
The next class we went to was Transfiguration. It was amazing seeing them work their magic, I even saw a bunny turned into a pin cushion.
"Edward?" I asked, "Where does the bunny go, I mean it's alive and now it's not. How can you make something living into, something… unliving?" He looked at me and then burst out in laughter.
"What's so funny?" I demanded.
"Nothing Bella, don't worry about it." Then I realized, that's exactly what happens when you become a vampire.
"Humph."
The bell rang, signaling lunch for the students. What was I suppose to tell Hermione?
"Edward, what should I say to her? I can't say, well Hermione I'm an evil vampire that wants to suck your blood." I said sarcastically.
"Not evil." Edward said, stroking my chin.
"I know now that I can handle it…but…"
"You'll do fine." Edward reassured me.
I wasn't so sure.
"I'm such a horrible person doing this to her." I looked down. "She didn't do anything to deserve this."
"Bella it's not your fault. These things happen." Edward tried to convince me.
"No." I shook my head.
"You are strong Bella. Nothing will happen." I had to believe that, because if anything did happen…
"It will be fine Bella." Edward said fiercely.
"Okay, let's get this thing over with." I said taking his hand.
Hermione was waiting in front of the door of the great hall, her arms crossed, watching us approach. We stopped in front of her, she gave Edward an unsure look before she turned to me and said, "Okay, let's talk."
I took a deep breath, wincing as the flames erupted in my throat.
"Right, is there anywhere we can talk in private?" I asked.
"Follow me."
I squeezed Edward's hand and whispered, "stay here." He gave me a worried look. "I'm okay, I'm in control." I soothed him.
"I know you are." He whispered. He let go of my hand and I walked quickly after Hermione. She stopped outside a door and peered in, it was an empty classroom
"In here." She said waving me in. I stepped in with her and she closed the door. I stood there staring at her in silence for a moment.
"Well?" She prodded.
"You all ready know I'm a vampire." I said.
"Yes." She pushed me.
"Well…I don't feed on human blood. My family feed on animals. We don't want to be monsters."
"So what was wrong with you the other day?" I gazed at her. I remembered when Edward had explained it to me that my blood called to him. But even then I didn't understand fully.
"Vampire's, or normal vampires, drink human blood. And sometimes, it's very rare, there's human's that call to you. It's there blood is specifically designed for you, specifically made for just you. It's hard to resist. It's called a singer."
"So…I'm you're singer?" Hermione asked. She caught on fast.
"Yes, I am sorry, that day…I was trying to keep myself from… I was trying to keep you alive. It's probably not a good idea to be around me. I'm under control now but…" She looked scared for a second, her eyes darted to the door.
"You can leave now if you want." I offered.
"No, I'm fine." She said unconvincingly in a high pitch voice. I chuckled darkly.
"Don't try to be brave, I'm a horrifying monster." I smiled, "Booga booga." She smiled a little bit back, then she looked at me with a puzzled expression.
"What?" I said defensively.
"You're not like any vampire I've ever heard of." She looked me up and down. I sighed.
"That's what everyone's been saying around here." I rolled my eyes. "Apparently the vampires you know are fake or something, according to Edward."
"Oh!" She looked surprised. "How is that possible?"
I shrugged, "How is all this possible?" I asked putting my arms up. "There isn't any answers, believe me." My arms returned to my side, my hands curled into claws tensely. It was still hard to not think of her as my next meal. She looked at my hands and raised her eyebrows.
"Don't you want to eat lunch?" I urged her.
"Yes, just…I have a question."
"Okay…" I paused.
"You two, Edward and you, your going to try to kill Voldemort?"
"Yes."
"And how are you planning on doing that?" She said skeptically.
"Well…we were just planning to find him, run up to him break his wand in half, and ah, finish the job. Not that I approve of killing human's. But it sounds like the world would be a better place without him…"
She stared at me like I was crazy.
"What?" I inquired again. She gaped at me.
"You're planning on just running up to him and snapping his wand?"
"Well yeah, it will be easy."
"Easy? Do have any idea how many wizards and witches have tried to kill him and died in the attempt? He's the darkest wizard of all time, the most powerful, except for Dumbledore." Her voice rose in panic.
"Relax Hermione, we know what we're doing. You're spells don't work on us. And we can move extremely fast, and we're strong. Believe me, it will be fine."
"I don't know…" She trailed off.
"hold on" I said. Putting up one finger. I opened the door and ran outside, I was vaguely aware of Edward hiding around the corner watching me, and picked up a rock the size of my head and ran back. I was back to the classroom before the door swung closed.
"Watch, and don't feel scared." I told her. She looked shocked at my speed, but nodded. I took hold of the rock and squeezed it exerting a small amount of force. The rock trembled and with a loud noise, disintegrated into dust. "We can take of Voldy-whatever. Do you see now?" I asked anxiously. She was staring at the dust on the floor, her mouth open.
"We're a lot different then you're vampires."
"Yeah." She whispered.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm just trying to take this in." Hermione said shaking her head. "I really hope you get him. Will wizard's go with you guys?" I didn't really know but I thought they would want to come.
"Yes, I think so. I believe Albus would want to come. And others. I heard you wanted to come."
"Oh. Where did you here that?"
"I over heard you." I admitted. "We should get going. You're friends are probably wondering where you are. She nodded thoughtfully and walked out of the classroom along side me.
"Would you like to, ah, sit with us?" She asked hesitantly.
"Um, sure." I said, taken by surprise with the offer.
"Edward can come too."
"You go ahead, I'll find him then." She glanced at me, then started walking to the great hall. I watched her, and not surprisingly I felt a pair of arms wrap around my middle.
"You did great!" Edward said enthusiastically in my ear.
"Yeah, did I freak her out though?"
"She's fine She's used to the unnatural, she was thinking of becoming your friend actually..."
"But is that responsible? Being her friend?"
"I believe in you." He said confidently, "at least you don't have to kiss her." I winced at the thought of being that close. Now I know how Edward felt with me.
"Let's go sit with the teenagers." He said excitedly. I laughed.
"It's been too long hasn't it?" I teased. He chortled quietly.
"Yes I think it has. I haven't been in High School for what? Five years? It's a record!" I giggled.
"Come on." I pushed him, leading the way to the great hall.
I spotted Hermione quickly and was over to her in half a second. I touched her shoulder gently. She turned around, gave a smile and said, "scoot over" Room became available quickly for us to sit down. We sat in between Ron and Hermione. Me on Ron's side. I giggled at the look on Ron's face. He really was a sucker for beautiful girls. It amused me to think of the look on his face if Rosalie showed up.
"So…what's up?" I asked.
"We were just discussing the fight actually." Harry said, he was sitting directly across from me.
"Hmm.." I grumbled.
"So, are guys, you know, together?" Inquired Ron off subject.
I laughed again, "of course we are." I said leaning in to peck Edward on the lips. They stared at us.
"Are you dating?" Hermione asked.
"No we're married." Edward said, caressing the word tenderly with his voice. Hermione gave Ron a look as if to say, well, there you go.
"But you look around our age." Ron said.
"Yeah we look like, 17 and 18." I growled, I was still touchy that Edward was forever stuck a year younger than me. Ron looked embarrassed for missing the obvious.
"You're obviously not from here." Hermione said, "Where are you from?"
"The United States." Edward said.
"Oh." Harry said, "We don't meet a lot of people from there, what's it like?"
"Oh you know, Werewolves everywhere, blood smeared across the ground." I said sarcastically. They all looked at me in horror.
"It's a joke," I added, "It's great over there."
"And the muggles don't know you exist?" asked Harry. There was that word again.
"What are muggles?" I asked.
"Non-magical people." Edward told me. Of course he would know.
"Then, yeah, they don't know we exist, and apparently you didn't either." Hermione looked like she was in deep thought. Ron's mouth was almost bursting with food. It was disgusting, the food that is. I could hear whispers running down the table from the students, "there married" "They say their going to defeat you-know-who." "I'd like to see them try." Looked like we were the center of attention. The bell rang and students began to file out of the hall.
"Sorry, we have to go." Hermione said hurriedly. Ron stood up and grabbed an apple off the table before he said, "see you"
"Bye!" Hermione called. "Do you want to come with us?"
" Uh, no. W need to talk to Albus." I said, as I saw him enter into the room heading towards us.
"Okay." She replied. While they walked away Harry said, "Why did you invite them?"
"Harry it was only polite." Hermione snapped back at him. Albus walked up to us.
"Bella, Edward, how was your morning?" He asked politely.
"Very well." Edward said smiling. Then his smile dropped as he took in Albus's thoughts. "What?" I whispered to him.
"There's been a…complication." Albus said gravely.
Hahahahaha...I'm so evil! Darn cliffy... What do you think? Review!
