Esme's Point of View

Carlisle had been in his study for hours. He was trying to figure out what was going on with Bella. I quietly tapped on the door, then peeked my head in.

"May I come in?' I asked shyly. I was worried I would disrupt his thoughts.

"Of course you can." He responded cheerily. I walked towards the chair across from his desk, but Carlisle motioned for me to come to him. As I stepped into his reaching distance, he pulled me onto his lap gently. Slowly he pulled my face to his, and kissed my lips slowly and gently. As we pulled away I smiled kindly at him. He looked upset.

"What's wrong?" I asked as I placed my hand on his cheek. He leaned into my touch.

"It's just Bella…I don't know why her change occurred the way it did," he paused, "How's she doing, do you know?"

"Well I've been bringing ice up to Edward every so often…" He cut me off.

"Ice? For what?" He asked confused.

The ice has been dulling her pain, she's even been able to sleep. She hasn't woken up for quite some time now. Actually, I don't think she's waken up at all since we started the ice." I explained.

"So that's why I couldn't hear her screaming. I thought I may have become immune to the sound." He chuckled quietly and started rubbing my thigh.

"I think she's going to be okay." I said quietly. Carlisle sighed loudly, and pulled me closer to him. We sat silently for awhile, just thinking and enjoying each other presence.

"How's Edward doing?" He looked at me with knowing eyes.

"He's really worried about her." I explained. Carlisle nodded. "It's strange, he placed the ice on her, and she immediately started to calm down."

"Well it's strange, but I'm glad she didn't have to go through so much pain." I nodded along with him. All of a sudden Alice barged through the door, hopping up and down.

"Bella's awake!" She said quickly and happily. Obviously she knew something we didn't.

"Alice, what do you know?" Carlisle asked her sternly.

"You will just have to wait and find out for yourselves!" She said happily, and bounced out of the room.

I turned to face Carlisle. I kissed him softly and passionately.

"Are you ready to go see the newest addition to our family?" Carlisle smiled, and kissed me.

"Let's go." He said smiling. We walked up the stairs, and found Edward's room to be filled with the family, all staring at Bella with shocked faces. As I looked at Bella I realized why. She had the brightest, bluest eyes I had ever seen. I peeled my eyes off of Bella, and looked at Carlisle, he looked utterly confused.

"Bella?" Carlisle asked.

"Yes?" She responded in a voice that could melt anyone's heart. It was so sweet and melodic.

"How do you feel?"

"Thirsty." All of us nodded in understanding.

"Edward, you should take her hunting." He shook his head at me.

"Edward, she needs to be fed…" Bella cut Carlisle off.

"I don't want blood, I want water." I stared at Edward, and he just shrugged.

"I'll go get her water." Rosalie said as she walked out of the room. She returned moments later.

"Here ya go, Bella." She said kindly. Bella took a long gulp, while we all watched her intently. As Bella finished off the glass of water she looked at Edward, who gasped in response. We all looked at Bella, and could see why he had gasped. Her eyes were now a lighter blue. Still just as beautiful and stunning, but a lighter shade.

"How do you feel now?" Carlisle asked skeptically.

"Just fine." She responded politely.

"Are you hungry?" He asked.

"No, not at all."

"And that water doesn't tasted bad to you?"

"Not at all, it tastes wonderful."

"Okay, I'm sorry but this is weird. Jasper drink some water." Carlisle said.

"Do I have to? That stuff tastes nasty." Jasper said appalled by the suggestion.

"That's my point. Bella you shouldn't like how water tastes." I turned and looked at Alice, she was still smiling brightly.

"Alright Alice, spill! What do you know?" I asked annoyed.

"Do you really want to know, or…"

"Yes." We all said, interrupting her.

"Okay, okay…Bella doesn't need blood, in fact she doesn't want it. She doesn't crave it by any means. All she needs is water. Other human food will taste appalling to her, and blood won't taste bad to her, but she will never truly need it."

"Is that my special power?" Bella asked.

"Not entirely." Alice said getting happier and happier.

"Wait a second…so you're telling me that all Bella needs to survive is water?" Edward asked.

"Yup, that's exactly what I'm saying." Alice nodded.

"Well I guess we moved to the right place." Emmett chuckled.

"If you don't mind I would like to check you out Bella." Carlisle said.

"That's fine." She responded happily.

Carlisle looked her over, checking for any signs of humanity left in her. When he went to check everything twice, I knew she was no longer human.

"Alice, are you going to tell us Bella's other gift?" Edward asked skeptically.

"Well…I don't know, I'll really have to think about that."

"Alice." We all groaned.

"Well…jeez if you are all going to be like that…"

"She has the ability to cure people, and if she were to be injured, she would be able to heal herself, even faster than we heal. Although I have to say, since we are living on a deserted island, I'm not sure when we will be able to see her use her ability." Alice finished off sadly.

"Well, if she really isn't going to be craving blood, then we really don't have to stay here." Carlisle said quietly.

"I really like it here." Rose said right away.

"I love being able to go out in the sun, without having to worry, can we please stay here? At least for a little while?"

"I agree with Rose. I think we should stay for awhile. Let Bella get used to the changes at least. And we should really test out her need for blood, before we put her in the middle of a group of humans." I explained.

"Then it's settled, we will stay here for now, probably at least a year." Carlisle said.

A/N: Alright, so it wasn't very long. Should I end it here? Should I write a sequel about the life on Arrilian Island? Please let me know what you think.

Review!
