I'd been awake almost 20 hours, and wasn't the slightest bit tired, I didn't know why and no matter how hard I tried to fall asleep, I just stayed awake, wide awake.
Even though I was in a strange house, and with people I never even talked to, I felt quite at home, Edward told me he wouldn't let anyone or anything hurt me, and I trusted him. There was only one person I was worried about seeing, whilst in this house. Rosalie Hale, the most gorgeous girl in school, who I envied so much. She'd never liked me and I knew it, the looks she gave me were unbelievable. Yet she never mentioned anything to me, to try and help things or explain her hatred.
I wondered if anyone thought about me, and who knew where I was. Surely Charlie would be waiting in a hospital for me. But I wasn't in a hospital. Charlie would be worried sick, he would be so angry at Carlisle and Edward. He'd probably arrest them for imprisonment. I shouted Edward, to come back to me, so he could answer my questions, and tell me more about what happened. To tell me where Charlie was most of all, and if people knew where I was.
"Edward? Edward? Are you there?" I tried to shout I didn't want to wake anyone up, if they were sleeping.
"Coming now Bells." He seemed to only whisper that, and he was downstairs. My ears must have improved too.
He was stood next to my bed in no time at all. He really shouldn't have rushed to get to me. I had so many questions to ask, but I didn't know where to start. Should I ask about Charlie first? Or what will happen to me now?
"So, do you know where my father, Charlie, is? Because, I don't think he knows I'm here, or what has happened to me yet." I said, looking concerned.
"Well, the thing is, I think I should tell you everything from the beginning, you know the van hit you right? Well, because I am a vampire, I thirst for blood Bella, and over my 100 years of being a vampire I've learned to control it, for many reasons, but we'll talk about that later. La Tua Cantante, it means your blood sings to me, you where my singer Bella and it's very rare to actually find someone like this, and control it. I did control it, for a long time. But on that day, the day the van hit you, your blood spilled, onto the floor and everywhere, and I couldn't control myself. I leaped upon you, and bit your wrist. I am so ashamed to admit it, but Bella I didn't want to, I couldn't control myself. You have to believe me, I am an utter monster, a disgrace. You have to understand, if you want me to leave this instant and never return tell me to, after I've explain the rest of the story to you.
"After I bit you I drank your blood, I regret every minute of it, although it was the sweetest thing I have ever tasted. I drank a lot of your blood, too much. My brothers had gone to fetch my father, Carlisle, because he could treat you a lot better than other doctors and he knew exactly what was happening. So he brought our ambulance, to make the scene look realistic, like you where being took to a hospital. I managed with all my might to get off you, and then I realised what I'd done, and I wanted to die Bella, I really did, the state you was in, you was pale, your eyes where rolling round the back of your head, you were screaming Bella, in pain, and it hurt me so much to watch, to know I had done that to you. Bella, it may be hard to understand, but once a vampire bites someone, once the venom has spread, and got into the blood, the victim then becomes a vampire. The process takes a few days. Bella, you aren't human, you're a vampire. I hate myself, Bella; I took away your soul, your life and know you are stuck like this. It's my entire fault, I truly am a monster. "
What? He said I was a vampire. Me? No! This can't be real? I am now a vampire? I will now be forced to live on slaughtering people, people that I once new, what if I murdered Charlie? What if I killed Mike? I'd never forgive myself. I wanted to hate Edward for doing this too me, but I couldn't find it in myself. I wanted to send him away and never to speak to me again, but I hung on to every word he spoke, and wanted to be with him forever. I loved him, unconditionally, and irrevocably.
"Isabella, do you hate me for this?" he said, I think he expected me to say yes.
"No, I love you Edward. I could never hate you." I confessed, wondering if I'd blushed.
"Bella, you must. I'm a monster; I've damned you for life" he said, with disgust at himself in his voice, as though he hated himself.
"I don't Edward, I want to get up and see myself. I want to know more. You have to tell me more. What will happen now? Will I see my family?" he asked him hopefully.
"No, Bella, you can't see anyone again, we have had to tell them that you died in the crash, and that they can't see you anymore. Bella you look totally different, and you probably wouldn't be able to control your thirst around them you may kill them. As for what will happen now, if you wish, you can stay with us; we are going to have to move. Because of what I have done, we will have to live in a completely different place. Personally, I wish you would pick this option, I want to spend the rest of my life with you Bella, I love you, and I know you love me too, despite my outrageous actions towards you. However, we have our own hunting arrangements, we only eat animal blood. Or you can leave on your own and choice your own hunting activities. It's your choice. As for seeing yourself, you can come with my right now, and look in a mirror. Don't worry, we do have reflections in mirrors Bells, but before you do, may I say, Isabella Marie Swan you are the most beautiful person I have ever seen, you look absolutely outstanding. Follow me to the mirror."
I pushed myself of the bed, and stood onto the carpet, which felt incredible under my bare feet. Edward held out his hand and I took it, his hand felt so soft, yet hard, but delicate in mine. He lead me out of the room, I strolled behind him not knowing what my reflection was going to look like. It hadn't quite sunk in I would never see my family again, but I was pretty upset, I knew I would see them again, I was determined.
