Chapter Eight – A New Look

Edward POV

I walked up to Jasper and Alice's bedroom and found Alice hiding in the corner. Seeing my usually very enthusiastic sister in the corner was quite surprising but I handled it alright. I offered her my hand and led her to my room. Despite Esme giving us a cottage, I still had a bedroom in the main house which was useful at times. I instantly realized a shocking fact. Bella's thoughts weren't shielded from me in Alice's body. I was suddenly very interested.

"Should I call you Alice or Bella?" I asked the girl who looked like my sister but thought like my wife.

"Alice…" she said softly.

"Alice, this is neat. I missed you…I like your shyness and I am glad to be around you again…I really liked that kiss earlier today…"

Alice smiled and thought I liked it too…

I leaned down to kiss her and I saw her get a vision of us together. I had seen Alice's visions of Bella's and my sexual escapades before but realizing that this was us was quite another thing. I actually kind of liked it. I kissed her and savored every thought that was going through her head. I couldn't believe that I was hearing Bella's thoughts! I mean she had been practicing letting her shield down for me but to hear them constantly was exhilarating. I was getting very into experiencing my new wife when a scent hit me.

Bella (the one who looked like my brown-eyed beauty) walked by the bedroom and I smelled her very characteristic scent. I instantly felt a reaction in my groin and I knew that the positives of this new look and for that matter scent, weren't going to work out. I pulled away from Alice and left the room, heading for my father, wondering what plan we would have to come up with this time.

Emmett POV

I had gone an entire twelve hours without having sex…not for lack of trying. Now with this new plan, I knew what my goal was. I was going to have sex with my Rose, no matter how awkward it was.

I pulled Bella gleefully to the bedroom and started heavily making out with her. It felt identical to Rose when I had my eyes closed and I kissed her, but once she moaned, I knew it wasn't her and I instantly felt awful for wanting to have sex with my little sister.

I pulled away from Bella and said "I can't do this…I can't take clothes off of my little sister."

She purred in a way that clearly showed she was the furthest thing from Bella that existed and said "then let's blindfold you and you won't be able to see me."

I agreed instantly and felt her lower herself onto my very ready body and I groaned in delight. Unfortunately, Bella did too and it wasn't Rose's voice. I knew that I was being silly but I couldn't do it, blindfold or not. I left Bella in the room and headed for Carlisle, praying her had a plan to fix this madness.

Jasper POV

I was hit by a wave of enthusiasm coming off of Esme. There's my wife that I know and love. I thought happily to myself. I approached her and she smiled. She kissed me jubilantly and I pulled her close, missing the intimacy that I had come to depend on with her. Our love actually managed to balance me out. The love she always gave off for me was helpful to keeping me grounded so I instantly felt safe by just being close to my angel.

I pulled her to our bed and started kissing down her body. I tickled her a little bit, knowing that I would be rewarded with her musical laugh and froze when she did laugh. It wasn't her. I knew Alice's laugh and her scent and although her love was very prevalent, I wasn't getting the full experience. I looked at the eyes that were staring at me in confusion. We all had the same eyes but it just wasn't the same. I knew Alice's face and Esme's features weren't it. I apologized and left the room, knowing that this, although it started a lot better than before, wasn't going to fix it.

Carlisle POV

I walked into our bedroom to find Rose waiting for me. She walked up and pulled me close by the neck of my collar. I gave in as I felt Esme's kiss. I tried to ignore the body that was giving it to me, knowing that Esme, not Rose was behind it. I kissed her back and she knew that I was ready to take it further. I felt her rapidly divest us our clothes as we laid down together. I opened my eyes, expecting to see my lovely wife but forgetting just who I was with.

I knew Rose was nice looking, I mean I had been the one to change her, but to me, she didn't hold a candle to Esme and all her kindness and generosity. I couldn't think of Rose as anything other than my daughter and this wasn't going to work. I couldn't just close my eyes and run my hands along her body without feeling like a criminal of pedophilia, although my daughter was far above the legal age.

I felt awful leaving Rose like that, knowing that she was doing what she knew I liked, but this wasn't working and I knew that this was not what the doctor had meant. I figured it was time for another round of guy talk because I knew that if I had problems, then so did they.
