Ch. 12: Bella's Powers Revealed

BELLA'S POV

Being a vampire was nothing like I ever thought it would be. Three days had already come and gone, and so far I was enjoying every moment of it. NEVER had I imagined it like this. Edward always made it out to be like it was something worse than death. To me it was a gift that I would forever be thankful for. Now I had an eternity to the one I couldn't live more than twenty-four hours without. Not to mention the sex was amazing! Without the boundaries between Edward and me, I'm surprised he hasn't shredded every single article of clothing I own already. And it's only been three days!

Now I was lying comfortably on my…I mean our bed just listening to the sounds of the house…well more like trying to block them out; More specifically Emmett and Rosalie. I didn't know how the rest of the family had survived so long with those two constantly at each other. It was like they never quit and the sounds they made only increased the awkwardness and disgust.

The hardest part about my change had to be the overwhelming senses and lack of sleep. I was so used to sleeping that at night I couldn't help but to cuddle up in the bed sheets and shut my eyes to imitate the idea of sleep. While I pretended to sleep, Edward waited patiently, of course if he wasn't having his way with me of course. But could you blame him? Almost a 100 year old virgin; he had a lot of time to make up for, and he was doing a damn good job of it.

So far though, all was good. After discovering my repulsion for human blood everything started to relax. We actually got to go out into public a couple of times. Most of the time, though, it was to help me get used to the stench. Edward or someone else from the family would take me out on small errands where normal humans would be, and gradually I got used to the foul smell of a human. Now it was just an unpleasant odor to my overly sensitive nose. It was easier to bear.

The one thing that the family was currently over focused on was discovering if I had any other special or unique abilities like Ali, Alice's new nickname, and Edward. Each one had their own bizarre idea of what my special ability would be. Emmett went so far as to being able to block all sorts of abilities, which we ruled out 'cause Jasper could still manipulate my emotions when necessary.

I wasn't all that worried about gaining a special ability. I was already strange enough for a vampire. Heck! I was strange enough as a human. I mean I was still warm, I could blush, and I was repulsed by the smell of a human. How unordinary can you get?!

But now, as I sat quietly listening to the sounds of the house, I pondered what my ability would be. Would it be something easy, like mind reading, like Edward? Or maybe something weird like controlling people's minds? I just hoped it wasn't something that made me stand out. All we needed was for someone from the Volturri trying to get me to join or worse; kill me. If I did have an ability, I wished for it to be something fairly simple, but knowing my chain of fate, I wouldn't be so lucky.

I was brought out of my thoughts by the sound of Edward quietly entering the room. "What're you doing My Love," he addressed me with his favorite nickname.

"Just thinkin'," I answered. He waltzed over with vampire grace and sexiness and sat on the end of the bed. Quickly, I scrabbled up and sat on his lap. He laughed and hugged me to him. I was always so eager to touch him, feel his body, his skin, anything of his. Being close to him was just so amazing. His scent was intoxicating enough as a human, but now it was like an inhalant that made me mad with lust, love and desire every time I was near him.

"How can you think with those two going at it?" he asked in a teasing tone.

"Ya just got to learn how to tune them out, although I understand how that can be hard for my little mind reader," I giggled as I ruffled his gorgeous reddish brown locks.

He glowered at me playfully and tackled me to the bed. I squealed and squirmed as Edward tickled me mercilessly. "Uncle! Uncle!" I shouted, desperately.

Edward, who had been laughing along with me, stopped tickling me and stared at me with a look that couldn't be described as more than love and adoration. He had that oh-so-sexy smirk on his face that made me want him to kiss me senseless. I was brought from my silent musing when I heard him chuckle. A deep, throaty sound that shook me to the core. He leaned down, brushing his lips against my neck, licking here and there making me yearn for his touch. As he spoke his breath gently teased my ear, "You, my dear, are a tease." When he finished, he gave a purr that rumbled through his chest and throughout my entire body.

My breath was already coming in ragged paces. "You're…the one…teasing," I gasped.

He licked my neck sensually, my body arching slightly and head rolling back to give him more access. "True," he agreed with an air of smugness.

He lifted his face to take in my flushed one. With a small laugh, he sealed the distance between us and kissed me until my head swooned with drunken pleasure. Our tongues battled passionately, and I groaned slightly.

We continued to make out on our bed for a few minutes until we heard both our names being called. Edward and I sat up grudgingly and made our way down stairs. When we got down there, the whole family was gathered in the kitchen waiting.

"What's up?" Edward asked nonchalant.

Carlisle spoke, "We need to discuss what we're going to do when the Volturri get here."

My eyes widened. I had forgotten about the Volturri visiting. That was in less than two weeks! I had been so distracted with all the new vamp stuff that I had completely forgotten. Damn. Now I had even more to deal with.

I heard Edward suck in his breath and looked over to see him nod stiffly. We all gathered around the table and the debate began. Carlisle started of course. "As you all know, the Volturri are going to be paying us a visit in less than two weeks. The way I see it, it is merely to see if we have kept our promise to have Bella changed within a year. That promise was kept so no need to worry there. One thing that concerns me though is who they're bringing; Felix, Aro, Demetri, and Jane. All the ones who had been present when the date was set for me to be changed. Hopefully, they will see what they need to see and be on their way. If that be not the case, then I would prefer we be prepared. So, just as we prepared for the Victoria incident, we shall prepare for this one. Do all of you agree?" he finished.

A round of nods and subtle agreements passed around the room. "I'm still curious, though, about whether Bella has any abilities or not," Alice spoke.

Carlisle grinned, "Yes, I believe we all are curious to know if she has obtained any other unique traits. However, given the circumstances, it might be days or years before we know for sure if she has any kind of power."

An uncomfortable feeling settled in the pit of my stomach. I identified it as disappointment. Part of me had actually wanted to have a super cool vampire ability that could be rubbed in the Volturri's face. It was a bit of a mood-crasher to find out that I might not even have an ability to begin with.

It was silent for a while, everyone lost in the depths of their minds. With the exception of Edward of course, who was in everyone's mind, given my own mind. I noticed Esme stand up quietly and make her way across to the kitchen sink. Whenever she was deep in thought, she busied herself with household chores of some sort. She began to lightly scrub the counter tops, wiping the dust from the pearl white surfaces.

As Esme made her way around the kitchen, the conversation continued. "So, when do we start practicing?" Jasper asked.

"As soon as possible," Carlisle answered, "So probably tomorrow."

Everyone nodded. "Bella will watch the first day," Edward's voice sounded loud and controlling.

I turned to him appalled, "Why? It's not like I haven't seen you all fight before."

"I'm not having you hurt Bella. You're still a new born," he countered.

"Shouldn't I be the one saying I don't want you hurt. I'm the one who has more strength at the moment."

Jasper came to my defense. "She's right Edward. The sooner we get her started, the more she will learn."

Edward let out a tremendous growl, startling Esme, who had still been deep in thought. The sudden sound caused her to jump, accidentally bumping the end table. On that end table was a priceless vase that Esme always catered to. I recall her telling me that it was part of when she first met Carlisle. The vase held a special place in her heart.

Esme, shocked from the sudden sound, didn't notice the vase start to topple over. I knew that if it fell, there would be no saving it. I heard Rosalie gasp as she, too, noticed the tipping vase. Over and over I was chanting in my head, don't fall, don't fall, don't fall. My wishes were not granted.

The vase tipped over slightly too far and began its journey to the floor. In my mind I was screaming, hollering for the vase to halt. "No, no, no!" I screamed over in my head. I pictured how broken Esme would be from losing this precious vase.

DON'T FALL! I yelled again. That's when it happened. Time seemed to slow. Everyone watched, bewitched, as the vase came to a skidding halt just inches from the floor. The vase stay, hovering in the air like it was possessed by a ghost or something.

"Bella?" I heard my name.

Shaking my head to clear my thoughts, but staying focused on the vase, I turned my attention to who had spoken. When I looked up, I met several shocked gazes. "What?' I asked.

"Bella, Love, look at your arm," Edward instructed.

I looked down and my eyes widened drastically. My arm was extended out, pointed straight at the hovering vase. I was speechless. I had been the one to stop the vase? Me? Curiously, I thought about it, then slowly moved my hand up. To all of our shock, the vase moved with my hand. Gently, I placed it upright on the table again. Releasing whatever hold I had on it, I dropped my hand and turned to the family, eyes still wide.

"What just happened?" Emmett's voice broke the astounded silence.

Carlisle cleared his throat and grinned again, "I believe our Bella is telepathic."

Before I could comprehend it, I was being bounced around by an overly excited Alice. "AAH! OMG! Bella this is so awesome! I can't believe it. You can control things with your mind. How cool is that?!"

I giggled. It WAS pretty cool. I wasn't expecting to get an ability. Now I was so excited. I wanted to practice right away. "Hey Bella?" Carlisle's asked.

"Yeah."

"I would like to ask you to try something for me. It involves your newly found powers."

I nodded eagerly. "Okay!"

Jasper laughed. "Calm. Please Bella."

I smile sheepishly, "Sorry."

"Okay Bella," Carlisle started. I looked up and he was over by the sink. He turned the nozzle and water gently gushed out. "Alright Bella, since you control things with your mind, let's see if you can control things that aren't necessarily solid."

I gasped, "You want me to try and move the water with my mind?"

He nodded. I glanced nervously at the H2O flowing harmlessly from the faucet. It's not as if I was a professional with this. I hadn't even been aware of my powers until three minutes ago. But, I would give it a try. If only to try it.

I walked over to the sink, standing a good five feet from it, and began to focus. I remember having focused on what I wanted to happen when I stopped the vase. This time I focused on the water following my hand movements in a stream in the air. I raised my hand and focused hard on what I wanted. Nothing happened.

Come on. Come on move! Move, move, MOVE! And it did. The water slowly rose from the stream falling into the base of the sink. I gasped, almost losing control of the fluid. Laughing at the feeling of the control, I moved my hand to the right. The water followed obediently. I began to make more intricate movements and heard the family gasp and ooh at my display.

Sadly, after about five minutes, I noticed that I was extremely exhausted. The focusing a maintaining control would take practice. I placed the levitating water back into the sink, and just for kicks, turned the faucet off with my mind.

Once I was done I turned to the family, took a deep breath and, "THIS IS SO COOL!!"

Everyone who began to laugh at my enthusiasm. "It really is Bella," Edward smiled. I rushed to him, through my arms around him, and kissed him deeply. I could feel his shock, but then he eagerly responded.

"Alright get a room," Emmett interrupted.

I broke from Edward to glare at Emmett. Strangely, the image of Emmett clapping a hand over his mouth and sitting down came to mind. Actually, it wasn't all that strange but still.

Everyone gasped though, including me, when Emmett really did clasp a hand over his mouth and sat down. The family was even more confused when I busted out laughing. "Oh this is awesome!" I laughed.

"What's going on?" Rosalie questioned.

"Apparently, not only can I control objects and elements with my mind, but also people."

All eyes shot open in shock. "You mean you did that Bella?!" Alice squeaked.

"Yup."

"Amazing," Carlisle gaped.

I smiled, "I know right. This is like the bestest thing eva!"

Edward and Jasper started to laugh and my choice of words. I knew it would break some of the tension. Emmett, who had still been quiet, stood up as I let my focus on him go. Immediately, I felt a wave of weariness wash over me.

"Uuhn," I wavered.

"Bella!" Edward caught me.

Carlisle came up and gently grabbed my shoulder, "I think she may have over done it for one day. It probably drains her energy the more she uses the power. That's something she'll have to practice on. Am I right Bella?"

I was too tired to talk so I just nodded. Even though I couldn't sleep, I still closed my eyes and pretended. "Why don't you take her up and lay her down Edward?" Esme suggested.

"Yeah."

Soon enough I was upstairs and lying comfortably against my husband recuperating my energy. "I'm so proud of you Bella," Edward whispered.

I turned and gently kissed him. "I know," I said quietly when I pulled away.

"You never cease to amaze me My Love," he commented.

I giggled, "Oh shut up."

He chuckled and kissed my hair. "Rest for now Bella. Training begins tomorrow, and I want you once tonight before we begin." I blushed at his implication, but remained silent. It was going to be a great night.
