I sat in my car, which was sitting in the high school parking lot, for about 15 minutes now.

Finally I took a breath, turned off the engine of the car, and got out. I walked from the parking lot and into the hospital. Immediately the smell of cleanser hit me. I felt sick to my stomach. The while walls, and lack of color make me feel empty inside. The hospital was busy, the rush of people was making me some what claustrophobic. I swallowed the lump in my throat and headed to the front desk.

"Excuse me." I said to the little old lady

"Oh, yes dear." She said looking up from her computer. "How may I help you?"

"I was wondering if there was any doctor available? I…umm…wasn't feeling too well."

"Hmm…let me check." She said looking at her computer. "Doctor Cullen is available. Well he is on his lunch break, but I am sure he would be happy to look at you. Let me call a nurse to put you into a room and I will call him for you.." she smiled at me.

I sighed in relief. "Thank you so much." I told her as the nurse came to show me to a room.

"No problem dear. Hope you get better!"

The nurse showed me to a room and told me the doctor would be in soon. The room was white and empty. There were doctor supplies everywhere which didn't help my fears. I felt like I was being trapped in a little room.

I quickly sat down on that crunchy white parchment paper and put my head in my hands. I needed to make sure I wouldn't loose control of my powers. I couldn't.

Before I knew it, there was a knock on the door. I looked up to see a pale white man. He had blond hair, gold eyes, and was overall beautiful. No he was breath taking. When he held his hand out to shake mine, they were ice cold, and then warm. It was weird. People's body temperature doesn't change that quick. He must have noticed it too, because he looked stunned.

"Hello, I'm Dr. Cullen" he said introducing himself

"Bella Swan." I said shaking his hand.

"You're…"

"The Chief of Police's daughter, yes." I confirmed. His facial expression then changed from friendly to serious doctor mode.

"So what seems to be the problem?" he asked me, while taking a seat on one of those spinny stools, doctors sit on.

"I…." I didn't know how to start or where to begin. Then it hit me. He was different; he looked and had an odd feeling about him. I stared at him closely, not answering his question yet. The answer that came to mind was an answer that took my breath away. Vampire. My head said.

I quickly stood up and went to the door. "I have to go" I said quickly. Right before I could open the door, Dr. Cullen's hand went over mine. The cold feeling hit me, and then went back to a normal warmth. I swiftly pulled my hand away and looked up at him.

"What are you?" I asked, daring myself to hear the answer I already knew.

"Bella." Dr. Cullen said.

"What are you?" I repeated.

He looked at me closely. "You know don't you?"

I swallowed and was about to object when he cut me off. "You know what we are."

"We?" I asked.

Dr. Cullen was at a loss of words and then changed the subject.

"Bella, its ok. I won't hurt you. You came here for help remember?" he said calmly.

I swallowed again and backed away from him once more. Sam was going to kill me.

He tried a different tactic. "Yes, yes, I am a vampire." He said quietly.

I took in a deep breath. "But Bella, I promise you, I will not hurt you. It's not like what you see in the movies, I…we… I want to help you. Please Bella, sit down" he said pointing to the table.

I looked at the table, and then back at him. I backed away, still facing him, but sat on the table.

I sat down and thought about something. I should be afraid. I mean I'm sitting with a vampire for heavens sakes! Why am I not afraid? I kept thinking. Everything the pack has told me about vampires, or bloodsuckers as they liked to call them, were horrible tales. It didn't make any sense. The man in front of me seemed anything but that.

"Bella?" Dr. Cullen asked, rolling his chair up to me. He must have seen that I didn't back away or cower, so he continued. He just stared at me, like he was trying to figure out a puzzle

When I didn't answer or look at him he put a hand on my knee. Suddenly, flashes clouded my mind. I saw vampires that looked like Dr. Cullen and maybe his family? I then saw Jake and Quil's great grandfather? It was strange. They were shaking hands, like they were agreeing on something.

Then it was gone. Just like that, poof! I was back in the exam room with Dr. Cullen looking at me oddly.

"Dr. Cullen?" I asked him.

"Please, call me Carlisle" he told me. I nodded, "Carlisle" I began,

"What happened with your family and the wolves?"

When I looked up at him, he looked taken back. "You knew that from when I touched you?" he guessed.

I bit my lip and nodded. I thought, heck, I knew him I guess I should even the playing field. And that way, maybe he and I could figure out what's going on with me. It was the best decision I could think of.

"We made an agreement, more like a treaty." He said truthfully. I remember hearing something about that. I think Sam told me once that they couldn't come over a certain part or they would start a war?

"What did it consist of exactly?" I asked more curious than usual.

"Well, a long time ago, Ephraim Black senior and Quil Senior made a treaty with my family. We made an agreement that if we didn't cross the border and drink human blood than they wouldn't attack us. It's quite simple."

"Simple?" I asked.

"Yes, simple. You see, we don't drink human blood Bella. I could tell you noticed something different about me, right Bella?" he asked

I nodded.

"Well it's because we drink animal blood. We like to call ourselves vegetarians." He said proudly. "You can tell that because of our eye color. Ours are gold while the others are-…"

"Red." I finished.

He looked up at me surprised. "Yes."

"Bella, I can't help but to notice something different about you…" Carlisle began. My heart began to race and my palms began to sweat.

"No Dr. Cul-…" I tried to cut him off.

"Bella, its ok." He said calming me down.

"Bella can I ask you something?" he said to me.

"Sure." I said as brave as I could.

"Why weren't you afraid of me?"

I looked at him confused and he continued his question. "I know you wanted to race out of here when you figured it out, but I don't think that was because you were afraid of me exactly. It seemed like you were more afraid of what you were going to do after you got out of the room."

I swallowed. What he was saying was true. For some reason, I wasn't afraid of him, I was just afraid of the thought what the guys might say when I told them I ran into a vampire.

"I don't know. I mean, I just didn't feel afraid of you. For some odd reason, I just wasn't afraid."

"So what were you afraid of?" he asked.

"I-…umm…well I am with the La Push pack. The werewolves." I corrected myself.

He nodded. "I see. And you were afraid of what they were going to say when you would come home smelling like a vampire."

I nodded. "Well Bella, here's the thing." He said, setting his chart on the counter.

"I think you're different. Actually, you and I both know you are different."

I went to go talk, but he raised a hand and I stopped.

"I think you are the one Bella." He said simply.

"The one?" I asked, swallowing hard.

"Relax Bella." He said. I nodded, taking a deep breath.

"Yes, the one. You are like the peace keeper between the two creatures. You're the one that can bring us all together."

My heart began to race. "Dr. Cullen. Carlisle" I corrected before he could say anything.

"I can't be this person. I mean, I can barely handle what I'm doing now. I don't know how I'm supposed to do all of this, I mean…"

"Relax Bella." He said putting a hand on my knee. "I will help you with this. Actually, I would be honored if you would let me."

I looked up at him. "Honored. You? I think I'm the one that's honored here." I argued.

He chuckled. "Bella Swan. You are one of a kind. The chosen one, its more than just a peacekeeper. You're the most important, the most vital key to everything. You're the one Bella. I don't know how I can put it. So yes, I am honored. It's just a great honor to be in your presence."

I felt myself getting pale. "Please don't treat me like I'm some hero." I said bluntly to him.

"Because I'm not. I am just a girl who is trying to get through one day at a time." I finished.

Carlisle sighed. "Bella, you have to believe in yourself. Once you find you are stronger than you think, you will see you can do much more than you have ever imagined."

I nodded and took a deep breath. "Ok, so how do you help me?"

"Well, how about we figure out, what's gotten you in here" he said grabbing his clipboard.

I nodded. For some reason I felt comfort in Carlisle helping me.

"Bella?" he asked me, catching my attention.

"Oh! Right." I said, blushing furiously.

"Well, I haven't been feeling good. I mean, I have been getting bad headaches, muscles aches, bloody noses, and I have passed out a few times." I said concerned.

The look on his face was just as concerned as me. "Have you taken aspirin for the headaches?"

I shook my head. "My body can burn off the aspirin before it even has a chance to work. It sometimes takes the edge off of it a little, but it never really helps it go away."

He nodded. "Bella, you seem very tense about this. Can I ask why?" he asked.

"Well, you see. I can-…I can heal myself." I stated.

He looked at me shocked.

"Here let me show you." I said hopping down off of the table. I took out a scalpel I found in one of the drawers. I was about to cut my forearm when something occurred to me.

"Why are you a doctor?" I asked. I could see he was confused about my question.

"Its just, doctor's deal with a lot of blood and since you're a vampire…"

He nodded. "Yes, I understand. Well I seem to have a very high tolerance for blood. And I make sure to keep a high amount of animal blood in my system just incase."

"So it wouldn't bother you if I…" I said pointing to the scalpel and my arm.

"Oh no, please, go right ahead." He said.

So I dragged the scalpel across my arm, making a long line down.

I then put my hand over my cut and closed my eyes. I focused on healing my arm. I opened my eyes to see the familiar green light, and held it over the fresh cut. When I took my hand away, my arm was healed.

"See." I said giving him a look at my arm. "So I can't understand why I am having these symptoms. My body should be healing itself so that I wouldn't get a bloody nose, or a migraine."

"I see." He said still looking at my arm. "May i?" he asked waiting to touch it. I nodded.

He ran his hand over the place where I cut my arm. "Amazing." He whispered.

"Can you heal…"

"Others?" I said guessing at what he was asking. He nodded.

"Yea, I can. We ran into an…accident, when I first came here, and I had to heal Jake." I said swallowing at the morbid memory.

"And he's…"

"Fine. Up and running. He's still the same old Jake." I smiled thinking about him and the pack.

"Well Bella…" he said.

"How about I think about this for a little? I will call you as soon as I think about what our next step will be." He said getting up.

I nodded and got up too.

"Ok. Thank you." I said.

"My pleasure Bella." He said shaking my hand.

I walked to the door and he started talking to me again. "Bella." He called. I turned around to face him. "Try and lower your stress levels."

My eyebrows creased.

"I'm not quite sure if they tie into anything, but I want you to try and lower them anyways."

"Ok." I said still a little confused.

I opened the door and was about to step out, when he said something else.

"Oh, and Bella. One more thing." Carlisle said.

"My family would love to meet you one day. If that is okay with you and your family of course."

I paled at the mention of my family. I now had to go home and tell them everything.

"Bella?" He asked me once again, coming closer to me.

"Oh right. Sorry, I zoned out there."

He and I chuckled for a second.

"Yes, that would be wonderful. I bet your family is amazing." I said coming back to our conversation.

"Good good." He said and I walked out the door.

"Thanks for everything." I said to the lady at the front desk walking backwards. She was helping a tall, bronze headed, pale boy.

She looked up and smiled at me. "Anytime dear!" she said waving goodbye to me.

The boy looked up at me and looked at me strangely. I smiled and went on my way. As I was walking out, I looked back to see Carlisle talking to the boy. They must have been talking about me or something, because they turned and looked at me.

Carlisle saw me looking and smiled and waved. The other guy stared at me and then him. I waved back and got my keys out from my pocket to head home.
