I told you it'd be pretty fast for the next update! lol ^.^

OK so sorry about the cliff hanger last chapter..Unfortunately it'll stay like that for a few more chapters. 2 more I think.

This Chapter is now in Edwards POV and it's much longer than the first chapter! Lol. (Hopefully that'll make up for the cliffy?)

K so. I have some pictures up on my profile for this fic. Bella's Car, What Bella looks like in my eyes, and what Edward looks like in my eyes. Go Check it out!

I'd like to say thank you to the ones who reviewed! I love reading what others think of my work. Please keep reviewing!

To the reader that messaged me earlier: No Alice and Bella are not going to 'hook up' in this fic. Haha. Sorry if anyone else thought that. I just put Bella and Alice on the over view thing because the first idea I had for this fic revolved around Bella and Alice and everything else just fell into place. Sorry for any other confusion! If you have any other questions let me know!

Ok so, I'll shut up now and here's the update! =)

Lights! Camera! ...Read!

I don't think I'll be able to do this, school is torture enough. And now with this 'gift' I have discovered it's going to be my on personal hell. Today was the first day of my senior year at Forks High, and I was dreading every moment of it. While I drove to school, a memory slipped into my mind.

It was the beginning of summer I woke up to hear my family talking very loudly, more like rambling on and on about random crap no one cares about. I was in a bit of shock because I was in my room on the third floor away from everyone but could still hear them. Was it that my hearing was sharper? I started to see pictures in my mind, like I was walking into the kitchen, and then one of watching TV in the living room. Everything was jumbled up along with all their talking. I quickly put my hand to my chest and let out a sigh of relief when I felt my heart beat. I was concerned that maybe my family must have unwillingly changed me while I was sleeping.


I got dressed and walked down the staircase to the living room where I saw my brother Emmett watching TV.

This show is so stupid. Oh well I've got nothing else to do.

"Oh hey Edward, You're up early. I thought you'd sleep in during summer break"

"Yeah, I don't know why I'm up so early. Where's Mom?"

"She's in the kitchen making you breakfast. Please go eat it before the house smells any worse!"

God. Eggs and bacon smell so disgusting. Maybe Jasper will go hunting with me later in Canada. There should be a couple of grizzlies there for us.

What the hell… I heard Emmett's voice yet his lips weren't even moving what's going on? Am I just dreaming or going crazy?

"Edward what's wrong? You feel confused." Jasper was next to me and his voice made me flinch.


Damn vampire speed and all their sneaky-ness.

"Uh nothing, I'm just hungry."

Hungry. Yeah right. He's flowing with confusion and anger. I wonder what's bothering him.

Now Jasper's voice filled my mind and he wasn't talking either. This is starting to get weird.

I walked away to the kitchen to have some breakfast and see mom.

I hope it tastes good. I wish I could try it to make sure it does. I hope Edward likes it. Hm…Carlisle should be home soon. I miss him every time he's gone, even if it's for a short while. I love him so much.

"I'm sure I'll love it mom. What'd you make?" I said.

She turned around and looked at me very confused.

"Oh hello dear, I made you some eggs and bacon."

Well that was weird; I didn't say anything out loud did I?

"Thanks mom."

I sat down at end of the eight person table where mom set out a big plate of eggs and bacon and I started eating. I was the only one who even ate at this house. Why did we need such a big table? I guess just too keep up false pretenses if anyone came over. But then again, no one ever visited we were all pretty much outcasts in this town. No one ever really talked to us or anything. I guess that's what happens when you're a family of vampires. People must try to stay away from my family because they looked so different or they were jealous that we had too much money for our own good. What ever it was it made me feel lonely at times. I didn't really have any friends, only my family.

I was the only one that was different in this family. I'm the only human in a family of six vampires. My parents, Carlisle and Esme took me in when I was only a few months old after a family friend, my real mother, died of cancer shortly after I was born. I had no other family and my mother's last request was that they take care of me. They adopted me and treated me like I was really their son. I inherited 2 sisters and 2 brothers coming into the family: Alice, Rosalie, Jasper, and Emmett.

When I was about 8 years old, they decided to tell me that they were vampires. I was young so of course I believed them. I was a little scared at first but they were my family I trusted them. They told me they weren't like any regular vampires; they didn't drink from humans, only from animals. They are sort of like the vegetarians of the vampire world. That's when I also found out that they weren't really my parents and the others weren't my brothers and sisters. I found out that Alice and Jasper were actually married and that Rosalie and Emmett were also married. So much drama for an 8 year old to be put through!

When I was 13 they told me that when I graduated from high school they would give me the option of being changed into a vampire. I was very excited I wanted nothing more than to live for thousands of years with my family. That was, until I turned 16. I decided to not let them change me. Though, I have yet to let them know my decision. I have to find the right time and way to let them know. I know my family would be sad after I was dead, but I just couldn't help but think that maybe being human was a better choice. None of them ever had the choice to decide. What if I wanted children? Or wanted to have a normal job? I wouldn't have to always move around when people got suspicious of why I wasn't growing old. On top of that, I know I would just end up spending eternity alone and lonely. I really didn't want that.

"Edward, are you not that hungry? You haven't eaten much. Does it not taste alright?" my mother asked with concern.

"No mom it's great. I just feel a little…off today is all."

"Oh I hope you're not getting sick, we can ask your father to take a look at you when he gets home."

"It's ok mom, I'm fine."

She left and in came Alice. She was always so excited. But today she looked so gloomy. That pixie of a vampire was hardly ever in a bad mood. Well unless someone messed with her clothes.

Meh.. I hate when Emmett and Jasper go out hunting together. They always take a week long trip. I'll have to go shopping a lot to keep my mind off him being away so long.

Again it happened, her voice in my mind. Was that what she was thinking?

She smiled and walked out to the garage and I could hear her start her Porsche up.

I'll go to Port Angles and stop at Victoria's Secret. Maybe I'll be able to convince him to stay.

And then I got a vivid picture in my mind of a Victoria's Secret bag in Alice's hand while she ran upstairs to her room with Jasper at her heels. Once they got in the room Jasper was making out with Alice furiously.

"Oh my god!" I screamed.

Mom, Jasper, and Emmett were at my side within a half a second with fear painted on my mother's face.

"Edward are you ok?! What happened?"

Is he hurt? No, he's just…disgusted? Why would he be disgusted…

Maybe I should call Carlisle. He looks quite pale today.

He looks like he just saw his sister naked or something.

I glared at Emmett. And he looked confused.

"Edward? Speak!"

"Mom, Guys, I'm fine. I just…remembered something ok? I'm sorry to have frightened you."

"Are you sure dear?"

"Yes."

I got up leaving my dish in the sink and went to my room. I laid in my bed wondering what the hell was happening to me.

Could I really be hearing all their thoughts?

Maybe I should go up and talk to him, he's worried and anxious. I wish I knew what was wrong.

Jasper's voice again. This was all too weird. I mean it could be possible though...I live with vampires. Anything is possible if that's possible, right?

Maybe it was a gift, like Jasper and Alice have. Jasper can influence and read other's emotions and Alice has visions of the future. Wait a minute…that image I saw in my mind earlier. That must have been her vision. I chuckled a bit at how determined Alice was to keep Jasper here. But then of course I remembered the image itself and I cringed again at what they would be doing. What I would hear! Oh God. I really need to get out of here!

I ran down stairs.

"Mom, I'm going for a drive."

"Alright, But don't be too late. Be back before midnight!"

"OK."

I only hoped Jasper and Alice were through with what ever they would do before I got back home.

I got in my Volvo and drove off. I didn't know where I was going but I did know that I would not tell my family of what I discovered. I didn't want to be even more different than I already was. Humans aren't supposed to have gifts.

I snapped back, out of my memories as I heard my phone ring.

"Hello?"

"Edward, are you ok?"

"Yeah, Alice I'm fine. Is everything alright?"

"Yes, it will be. Edward, when you get to school go straight to class. No Exceptions. Please."

"Ok I will. Don't worry. Will you explain later at least?"

"Yes, I promise. I love you Edward."

"I love you too Alice."

And with that she hung up.

Strange, why would Alice call me and tell me to go straight to class? Was something going to happen?

I pulled in to the school parking lot and the thoughts of those idiot students so happy for the first day of school rushed into my mind, fairly excited about the new girl too.

Holy shit. She's even hotter than I thought she would be. She'll be mine by the end of the day.

Mike Newton. That vile excuse for a human is already trying to date her!

Damn it. Looks like I have to work at it a bit more. Hopefully I'll have classes with her. God the things I will do to this chick. Shit I better not excite myself too much.

Poor girl, I should warn her to stay away from this imbecile.

I got out of my car and sighed. Here goes the beginning of another crap year at Forks High.

I grabbed my school bag and shut the door. When I turned I saw a new car in the parking lot that I had not seen before, an Audi TT. Who ever owned that had good taste in cars.

I started walking to class but my gaze fell upon the girl on the other side of the car. I stood frozen in place. There she was, the new girl talking to Mike Newton, how I wish I could rip that creature's throat and feed it to the wolves. I couldn't keep my eyes off her though. The goddess stood about 5' 4" with long brown wavy hair down to her mid back, slender, and had curves that could make any man's knees weak.*** She's beautiful. The pretties brown eyes. Such soft looking lips…

Ah, stop looking its rude! Just get to class!

She's going to think I'm such an idiot for staring at her.

I walked off in the direction of the school. I couldn't believe I was so consumed with my thoughts of her. I need to get to class. Alice will kill me if I wait any longer. As I walked across the lot I heard the most beautiful voice, its sound was much like a symphony of bells.

What's wrong with me?

Nothing, that voice is too beautiful for the owner of it to have anything wrong with them.

I can't kill him! He's human…

What…

But he smells delicious. You can do it… just look at him. He'll follow.

Oh God, where's Alice…

You can grab him and disappear into the woods. It'll take less than a millisecond to do. No one will miss him. No one will notice.

"No!" I gasped. The beautiful voice was about to kill someone!

I turned around quickly but no one was there. Just then I saw Rosalie's BMW and I ran to it. Every one jumped out of it.

"Edward! I thought I told you to go to class! Emmett, Rosalie, Jasper get him to class. NOW!"

Rosalie put her arm around my shoulders and led me to the school. Jasper and Emmett were closely behind us.

"Guys, what's going on…what happened?!"

"We have a visitor. Alice saw a new vampire in town. That's all I know." Rosalie whispered making sure only I could hear it.

I can't believe we were almost too late.

Too late? Wait a minute… That vampire…She was after me? Those thoughts… they were aimed at me… Was I really that close to death?

I shuddered.

We reached my first class: English. I sat throughout the period not paying any attention what so ever to the lesson. I cleared the thoughts of everyone around me as much as I could until they were only whispers.

I tried not to think what would have happen if that vampire had killed me.

Should I reconsider being changed?

oooo shocker?

Yep. Edward doesn't want to be changed! Will it change?? =O who knows...

So I put this up cause I wanted Edward's explanation of when he first got his power and how he feels like an outcast and that he thinks if he doesn't let them change him he could one day be 'normal' - Ch'yea I know, right? Normal is over rated *rolls eyes* oh Edward...

Anyways. I wanted to show that Bella was absorbing Edwards power. That's why she can read minds now and that it wasn't her remembering Aro's power. It'll be fun later when she finds out it's actually his gift. Oh the conversations they could have! -sigh-

Anywho. ***Pictures on my profile of what Bella and Edward look like to me. I love Robert Pattinson as Edward but I saw Hayden Christensen and I though "Jan, you silly goose. Hayden Christensen would be the perfect human Edward!" so there you go. And as for the Bella I chose, She's just some model I found on Google. She's really pretty and I just see her as the perfect Bella for my fic. Oh! and that outfit with the skirt and brown shirt that she's wearing there, just imagine that's what she's dressed in this fic for now, k? ^.^ (I effing love that outfit it's so cute and sophisticated) -Fanfiction messed up my links on my profile, I fixed them but for some reason it hasn't changed the links on my profile yet. so please give it time and check back on them later!-

Next chapter will probably be a little short but it'll be in Alice's POV!
