One Girl, Two Boys
EPOV
"Bella?" Alice asked from next to me.
It couldn't be, Bella should be human, not a vampire. How did she suddenly become the leader of a coven? Oh my god. She got changed when we left, and she's angry at. But why isn't she mad at Rose?
"Victoria?" Emmett asked.
I looked across the field to see the flaming red hair and wicked smile of Victoria, stand right next to Bella. A smile broke across her face and Emmett lunged across the field. Before he could get half way across the field Bella was standing in front of him. She kicked out sending him half way across the field into a tree.
With that, the whole family was in action along with theirs.
Victoria went straight for me, striking and lunging every chance she got. I put up a fight, but she was just too strong, I went down, and it seemed the rest of my family did to.
After everyone recovered from the shock, we all started to get up. Alice stood up, plucking up the courage to speak.
"What happened to you Bella?" she asked, making sure Jasper was ok.
"You want to know what happened?" she asked menacingly, looking at Victoria. "Do you want me to give you the brief sentence answer, or do you want to see the gressume stuff?" she asked looking around at us, as if daring us to ask for the long answer.
"What I want to know," one of the twin boy, I think his name was, asked from behind her. "Is why Emmett tried to attack Victoria."
"Yes, that would be nice," Clara said, with the whole family except for two of them, I think it was Brittany and Ryan nodding.
"You mean, you didn't tell them what James, Laurent and Victoria did to you?" I asked, ignoring Tanya who was trying to claim my attention.
"Wait, our Laurent and Victoria? And who's James?" the half vampire, Sophie I think, asked looking beyond confused.
"What James did to me was nothing compared to the way you left me. I was broken into a million pieces that night, and have only recently started to pick those pieces up. So don't go around talking about stuff you don't know a thing about. Oh, and by the way, those songs I wrote, they're about you," she said.
I flinched at the conviction in her voice.
"Bella, just talk to us!" Alice pleaded.
"Is this a bad time?" I herd a voice I had herd somewhere before just couldn't place it.
I looked behind the family to see Laurent and Irina Denali emerge from the woods. They were both wearing the tracksuits the rest of the family had on.
They all started screaming with joy and ran over for a huge group hug.
"What are you guys doing back so soon?" Victoria asked.
"We couldn't stay away from the family," Irina said. "You better have an extra bedroom, where staying."
"Don't we always?" Bella asked laughing.
Tanya stepped forward a bit trying to get a better look at her sister, "Irina?"
They all turned to look at Tanya.
"Hey Tanya," Irina said with a small smile.
"How can you be hugging them?!" Tanya screeched. "They just attacked us!"
"Did you provoke them?" Irina asked she spoke like she was talking to a five year old who didn't understand a math problem.
"Emmett lunged at the red head, and Bella hit him half way across the field," she said, as if that was the answer to everything.
"Let me give you a word of advice. Never attack Victoria, while Bella is in a 20-mile radius. Unless of course, you want me to start building your bonfire." She said like it was the most obvious thing in the world. I have to admit, it was pretty funny.
"I can't believe you're picking their side over ours," Tanya said.
"Actually Tanya, this is my side," Irina said. "I was the first one to join outside the original three. I'm a Hunter."
Tanya let out an enraged roar and went to stand next to me, glaring at the family.
"Bella, just talk to us," Esme pleaded.
She let out an exasperated sigh, she obviously didn't want to talk about it. "What do you want to know?"
"What happened to you the night we left?" Rose asked, that was defiantly something I wanted to know.
"Victoria found me after I had been walking aimlessly trough the woods for hours, lets just say it wasn't pleasant," she said looking over at Victoria.
"I've got to admit, you had a fire in you that night," Victoria said.
"Why can't I read any of your minds," I blurted out, I had to know.
"Oh that's just me," Bella said dismissively. "Its one of my powers."
"One of your powers?" Emmett asked, looking like he was having a very hard time understanding.
"Yeh. I have the power of rejection, which is why none of your powers work. There's also mind reading, future seeing, the ability to feel and manipulate emotions, give vampires human qualities, changing appearances, teleportation, power over water, ability to have mind conversations, I can also see the bond people share."
She looked around at all of us, seeing something we couldn't.
"Can I speak to you for a minute Bella?" I asked. Please?
"Ok. We'll be back in a minute guys, feel free to mingle," with that said I started running with her following behind me.
Once we were far enough away I turned around to face her.
"I'm so sorry Bella, I didn't mean to hurt you when we left, I thought you would be safe," I said. Please believe me.
"Why should I?" she asked her voice was so cold I wasn't even sure it was the same Bella. "You left me broken in so many pieces, I'm not even sure if I've found them all yet. Let alone try to put them back together."
"Bella when I left you, I'd never dreamed of Victoria finding you, and I'm sorry for being the reason you're like this. I never wanted this life for you. I can't believe Victoria did this to you."
"Don't you dare blame this on my sister. She's the closest thing to family I've had since you all left me, so if you want to blame someone for me being a vampire, blame yourself," she looked me in the eyes and I saw just how instance they were
I gulped. Note to self, don't insult Bella if I want to live. Oh wait, you can here me cant you?
"Great detective work genius," she said coldly.
"Please don't kill me when I do this," I said, making a split second description.
Before she could ask what I meant, I attacked her lips with my own.
I was amazed at how different yet familiar they felt. They felt amazing yet there was something that used to be there that just wasn't.
All of a sudden she pulled back, looking me in the eyes. She had hurt, pain, confusion and something else running through them.
As she looked at me a solitary tear ran down her face.
Without another word she turned and ran away.
Did she just run from me?

"Can I speak to you for a minute Bella?" that vile vampire who left her asked.
"Ok. We'll be back in a minute guys, feel free to mingle," she said, then ran off into the forest with that idiotic vampire.
Clara and the little pixie, I think her name was Alice started talking about going on some shopping trip. The big one, Emmett started talking to Damien and Max started talking to the blond guy. Everyone seemed to hit it off except for me, I was too worried about Bella.
We had been standing there a few minutes, when I got this feeling that Bella needed me, I couldn't explain it, but I knew she needed me.
"Hey guys, I'm ganna head back," I said looking at them all.
"We're going to hunt, we should be back by 5, tell Bella when she gets back," Laurent said.
I nodded and started running back to the house. When I got there Bella's sent was fresh, she had obviously just come in. I quickly went inside and straight to Bella's room.
When I opened the door, I saw Bella curled up in the middle of the bed with her head on her knees. Her chest was rising and falling unevenly as she sobbed. I ran over to her and brought her closer to me. She wrapped her arms around my neck and sobbed into my chest.
I sat there and rubbed her back while she cried. When she had calmed down enough to stop crying for a few minutes, I turned her a round so she was sitting in my lap, and I was leaning against the wall.
"What happened out there? You've never cried this much before," I said rubbing up and down her arms, trying to sooth her.
She lent her head back against her shoulder and took a deep breath.
"We started talking, he said how sorry he was for leaving, that he didn't want to hurt me. I told him it was to late for sorry. He blamed Victoria for me being a vampire, and I told him, that if he wanted to blame someone for what happened he could blame himself. But it's the bit that happened next that got me so worked up."
She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. There was only dim light coming from the outside to fill the room, but it was still enough to see her by. She really was beautiful, even if she didn't see. Maybe it was the fact that she didn't try to be pretty was what made her so beautiful, she was herself. And I know you can hear me Bella, you really are beautiful.
She kept her eyes closed but let a small smile grace her lips.
"Thanks," she said.
"Anytime," I said lightly kissing the top of her head.
"Back to the story," she said, "after we had talked a few minutes he asked me not to kill him if he did something. At first I didn't think anything of it. But then he kissed me."
I couldn't stop the growl that escaped my lips.
"You mean that moronic vampire who was kissing the blond not 12 hours ago, had the nerve to kiss you?" I asked as the anger grew.
"Yes," she whispered weakly. "It felt like it used to, but there was something missing. I don't know what, but there was. I knew if I didn't do something I would probably end up kissing him back, and I didn't want that. I pushed away. I didn't want him back. I let him see a tear, but then I ran back here. I couldn't stay around him," with that she put her head in my chest and started crying again.
"I don't want him back. He broke my heart once, how do I know he won't do it again? I don't want to open myself up to that sort of pain again," she sobbed into my chest. I couldn't do anything but hold her.
"It's ok darling, he wont hurt you again. I wont let him," I promised as I hugged her to me.
"You always know exactly what I need, your there for me. And I can't thank you enough for that," she whispered into my neck. Kissing my neck.
I felt my unbeating heart swell as she said those words. She said I was there for her, that she needed me. I pray to God she won't kill me for doing this.
I reached up to cup her face in my hand. She looked me I the eyes, as I silently begged her not to kill me. She nodded for me to continue. I slow moved my face down to press my lips to hers. She moved her arm up to wrap in around my neck, will my hand around her waist pulled her closer. Kissing Bella was the most amazing thing I had ever done. And the best part was, she didn't stop it.
When she finally pulled back she smiled at me.
"Wow," was all she managed to breath out.
"Wow, is right," I mumbled into her hair.
She let out a small laugh.
"The sad part is that I've been wanting to do that since the first time I saw you," I said looking at her.
"The sad part is that I have too," she said lightly kissing my lips.
"Does this make us a couple now?" I asked hopefully, I really did want her to be mine.
"Possessive Much?" she asked. "and yes, it does."
"Sweet," I said.
She smiled at me and went over to sit at the window, looking out at the forest around us. I went over and sat her on my lap.
We sat there, not needing to say anything, just being happy with each other's company.
I can't believe it, I had got the girl of my dreams. Take that Edward 'stupid' Cullen.
