Bella blinked slowly, staring at her reflection in the mirror. She had always been pale, even when she had lived in
She was Cullen pale, and Cullen flawless. She, Bella Swan, was flawless.
Bella angled her head down, and continued to regard herself.
Her hair, which had always been a rather mousey shade of brown, had darkened into a rich chestnut colour that shone with reddish highlights when light danced over it. Her face was clean and smooth, not a single pore visible.
It was like she had walked off of the cover of a fashion magazine, airbrushed to perfection and impeccably coiffed.
She had always been slim, and she looked to be the same size as she was before, but somehow her body seemed different. Bella couldn’t be sure but she thought that everything seem tighter, and more toned.
Bella tilted her head again, half expecting the image in the mirror to turn in the other direction, or scratch its nose. She couldn’t quite get her mind to believe that she was actually looking at herself. She felt like she was in one of those mirror-universe episodes of Star Trek where the crew would bump into versions of themselves that were almost identical and yet somehow strange and foreign as well.
“It’s shocking, isn’t it?” Esme said softly coming up behind Bella.
Bella met Esme’s gaze in the mirror and nodded. She was naked, and she thought that she should have felt embarrassed, but Esme had helped her bathe after she had woken up, and so there was really no reason to be shy around the woman now.
Besides, as shocked as she was by her new body, she was kind of proud of it as well, and didn’t mind showing it off. She understood better now why
“Very,” Bella replied, her voice breathy as she continued to look at herself in disbelief.
“How do you feel?” Esme asked gently.
Presently, Bella seemed steadier and Esme was certain that the disorientation Bella had felt upon waking was over, but she wanted to make sure.
“Fantastic,” Bella said, a large smile spreading across her face. “Amazing, wonderful, lovely, terrific … fantabulous!” she continued, bounding lightly on the balls of her feet. She felt like she could run a marathon, and then swim across the
She felt invincible.
“Will it always feel like this?” Bella asked suddenly, turning around to face Esme, smiling thankfully at the older woman when Esme handed her a black silk robe.
“Yes,” Esme said as Bella pulled the robe on, but her face was thoughtful. “However, it won’t always be as overwhelming for you as it is now,” she continued as Bella belted the robe. “You’ll get used to the feeling as time goes on, it’ll become part of you, something normal, ordinary. It won’t always awe you.”
Bella nodded, that made sense. Decades from now she probably wouldn’t remember what it felt like to wake up in the morning with a crick in her neck, or a pain in her back. She wouldn’t remember what it was like to have woken up with her shoulder aching because she had slept on it at a weird angle, and so feeling the perfect fluidity of her muscles every time she moved wouldn’t astound her.
The feeling wouldn’t last, but Bella made up her mind to enjoy it fully for as long as it did.
“My eyes,” Bella began a few seconds later, turning towards the mirror once more. “Why aren’t they like yours?”
Her eyes were the one feature that remained almost exactly like they had been before her transformation. Unlike the Cullen’s honey coloured eyes, hers were still brown. They were a more spectacular shade of brown, a very beguiling hazel, but they were not like the Cullen’s.
“The colour of our eyes is a reflection of our choice of food,” Esme began, “and since you haven’t fed yet, yours haven’t changed. Soon, they’ll be identical to rest of ours,” she continued, laying a reassuring hand on Bella’s shoulder.
Bella smiled at her and Esme returned the expression.
“There’s time for this talk later,” Esme said squeezing Bella’s shoulder lightly, a soft smile touching her lips. “The others are anxious to see you, so let’s get you dressed.”
Bella smiled and nodded, allowing Esme to lead her by the elbow. She was anxious to be revealed as well.

The Living Room – Fifteen Minutes Later
Bella was aware of the others eyes upon her as she entered the room, but the moment her eyes found
As she had descended the stairs, all sorts of scents had hit her that she had never been aware of before and it had sent her mind reeling. However, seeing the familiar faces of her friends – and now family – had begun to clear her mind, and Bella had felt a little steadier.
That changed when her eyes found
In the moment their eyes locked, Bella felt her mind begin to swim again, and her vision changed, shifted, homing in until all she was aware of was
And then,
It had been impossible for her to separate the varying aromas around the house when she had first emerged from the bedroom, and when she had entered the living room she had been completely unable to differentiate the varying occupants scents.
Looking at
Bella breathed in deeply, taking
She smelt so good.
She smelt heavenly.
Bella didn’t think it was possibly for a more alluring scent to exist.
She blinked, her ears distantly picking up the sound of growling as she did.
It wasn’t until a few seconds later that she became aware that she was the one making the sound.
“Bella,”
Bella stared at for a moment, convinced that a more perfect creature than Alice Cullen had never existed, and never would.
She growled again, softly, the sound full of longing and need. And then, before she was aware that she was moving, before she could even consciously register the surge of love, affection and desire that washed over her, Bella found herself standing in front of
---
The more Bella kissed her, the more her mind began to fog, but she was, at that moment, still aware that they were in the living room with her family standing around and she realized that she should try to stop Bella.
Alice lifted her hand, placing it on Bella’s shoulder, trying to gently nudge her away, but Bella knocked her hand away and continued to kiss her, her hands moving to the front of Alice’s pants, popping the button open a second later.
She realized it was the coffee table as she began to tumble to the floor, but before she could give any more thought to the situation, Bella flowed down onto the floor with her and used their newly reclined position to begin exploring

“Dude,” Emmett said smiling widely as Bella straddled
Rosalie reached out and slapped the back of Emmett’s head, even though her eyes were on Alice and Bella too.
She was a little impressed, she didn’t think that Bella had that in her, even all hopped up on new vampire hormones.
She tilted her head to the side, watching as Bella’s hand began to creep further up
Jasper closed his eyes and angled his head away from the scene in front of him. He had occasionally felt the physical desire
Bella was unthinking, unreachable, she was nothing but desire for
Jasper lowered his head, tucking his chin into his chest.
“We should separate them,”
“You want to stop them?” Emmett asked incredulously, torn between his desire to keep watching Alice and Bella, and his desire to stare at
“She doesn’t mind,” Jasper said softly, looking at
The others turned their attention back to the two girls on the floor, regarding them for a few moments. Bella’s hand was, at the moment, clearly covering
A moment later a strangled cry tore lose from
“We should leave them alone,” Esme said finally, a faint smile touching her lips. It was clear to her, and all of the others that
“You’re certain
“Yes,” Jasper said clearing his throat, as a surge of emotion from
“Well then,”
He had made peace with the idea of

She had really, really wanted to stop Bella when the others were in the room, but her body hadn’t cooperated with her. Her mind had been made foggy by Bella’s intoxicating scent, and her body had been warm and tingly from Bella’s hands roaming over it, and she had known that whatever had come over Bella was quickly overwhelming her as well, and that she soon wouldn’t want to stop, even if the others were still there.
Bella’s head spun. She was delirious. She felt like she was floating, floating in a dingy in the middle of the ocean. All that she was certain of was that she was with
Bella bit her again and

The Next Day
“Damn girl,” Emmett declared looking over at
“Shut up,”
She and Bella had stayed in the living room for a while longer the night before, but finally, three orgasms later, she had managed to convince Bella go up to Bella’s bedroom, which was much more private had better sound proofing than the living room.
Their time in the living room, and the journey up the stairs hadn’t lessened Bella’s arousal however, and once they reached the bedroom they had settled down for hours more of love making.
When she had gone limp, her brain tingly and slow in a post-coital fog of bliss, Bella had, mercifully, slowed down as well. It seemed she had tired herself out as well and so they lay together for a while, before moving to the bathroom where they took a leisurely bath together, and then they returned to the bedroom to just enjoy resting together for a while.
Rose laughed at her, golden eyes shining with mirth. “I’d say I could take you,” Rose began still laughing. “But I think you’ve been taken enough.”
That comment sent Emmett off and
“Where’s Bella now?” Emmett asked once he was able to get his fit of laughter under control.
Rose smirked. “She’s probably working up her 86th wind.”
She and Emmett giggled at that, and
“
“The, ‘Now You’re A Vampire, So Be The Best Vampire You Can Be’, speech?” Emmett asked rolling his eyes.
“What are you watching?”
“We wanted something with a holiday theme,” Jasper began.
“But because Emmett got to pick,” Rose interjected, glaring at her husband.
“We ended up with Die Hard,” Jasper cut in, finishing his original answer.
Despite his phrasing, and neutral tone,
“How terrible,”
“Tragic,” he murmured, wrapping his arms around her.
“All of you,” Emmett began, his voice slow and low, “can go to hell,” he finished, and with that he folded his arms across his chest and glared at the television set like he had caught it staring at Rose’s ass.
“Aw, don’t pout,” Rose said pressing herself against Emmett’s side. “I was just teasing,” she continued softly, pressing her lips against his cheek.
“I’m sorry,” she said softly, knowing that the past few days, and especially the past twenty-fours had been especially rough on him.
Jasper nodded, his eyes distracted, but kissed her forehead nonetheless.
“
Just like the talk he was having with Bella at the moment, it was tradition. He always took them hunting alone for the first time, taught them how to focus their senses, how to bring the animals down quickly and mercifully, where to bite to maximize the amount of blood they were able to ingest, and then how to mask the evidence of their attack, making it seem like an animal had been responsible.
“We should go away while they’re gone,”
There was a part of her that wanted to stay to make sure that Bella’s orientation went well, but she knew that she needed to spend some time alone with Jasper. She could feel the tension in his body, see it in his face and his eyes, and she knew that even though he seemed calm on surface, that he was feeling anything but calm.
The three of them had settled into a nice pattern over the previous six months, but the past three days had thrown that dynamic out of whack, and she needed to try and return some equilibrium to the situation. She felt as if he was drifting, and knew that she needed to spend some time alone with him, focused completely on him.
“Okay,” Jasper breathed out, his lips brushing against her temple as he spoke.
She reached out, her fingers tracing the contours of his chiseled, beautiful features, her eyes trailing lovingly over the plains of his face, and then she leaned forward and pressed her lips against his, kissing him slowly, trying to pour all of the affection she felt for him into the caress.
Jasper stroked
Her eyes were worried at she stared at the television. She wasn’t actually registering anything that was happening on it, even though she seemed focused on it. And even as the minutes stretched on, her body never completely relaxed.
Something was wrong. Something was very wrong. And for the first time, in a very long time, she had no visions to guide her or show her how to make things right again.

You explanation of the eye color made a lot of sense! And I laughed soo hard when they got it on in the living room with everyone around. Emmet was priceless!
But I guess there has to happen something in regards of Jasper.
Awesome chapter! Keep going please!

Date: 2009-01-23 11:36 pm (UTC)Anywho, loved the update. I didn't even need the great smex to jizz in my pants. I got the e-mail that you updated your journal and saw that it was more of The Edge, and I jizzed in my pants. So congratulations! You officially have an insane stalker-girl running after you and not only wanting to get in your stories' pants, but possibly even in YOUR pants. Not possibly, most likely. Let me know if you're ever in need of any...assistance ;) (JK...or...yeah, probably jk since I know you'd never take me up on that offer. If you would, however, then no jk.)

Awh, Jasper's just gotta angst and ruin the the awesome streak of vampire!sex. But I kinda feel for him. I mean if I had Alice and some little human-turned-vampire was crowding in, I'd be upset, too. That said, it needs to happen because Bella needs Alice all to herself. :D

Date: 2009-01-24 05:08 am (UTC)Srsly though? Lovely update; I keep forgetting about Jasper, and then I feel bad about forgetting about Jasper, and then I think of Alice and Bella and then I feel a teeny bit better.
And yay, cliffhangers!
NO SHARING!!!
Date: 2009-01-24 05:42 am (UTC)And I'm SO glad to see that something is FINALLY going to happen with the "trio" dynamics. I absolutely hate sharing =P
The idea of sharing almost made me gave up on this story altogether, but you write so well and oh gosh, I'm also a sucker for angst with happy endings so... here I am, still struggling with the idea. Trying not to get too sick by it.
I admit it's... disappointing to know that Alice still has such strong feelings for him. On the other hand, it's... understandable that a love that has been there for decades doesn't just go away.
Plus, it IS kind of comforting to know that she's "better" than Edward when it comes to that. She won't just turn her back on Jasper just because she found someone she (hopefully hopefelly hopefully *crosses fingers*) loves "more".
And hello, Jasper? Good to see that you still have a little pride man. I would HATE sharing even more if I knew I was number two... tsk tsk...
But OMG that scene was fantastic! The different kind of "hunger" *lol*
You even got Rose to admit watching could be sexy... and this time I see the Rosalie that Stephanie Meyer initially thought, Olivia Wilde =P hehe
(oh gosh, now I'm the one on the verge of an overload... Alice, Bella and Olivia Wilde!!!!)
I love Alice, absolutely adore her, but on some level, because I have this wacky mind, I also think she should be somehow "punished" for what she's putting both Bella and Jasper through. Even book Bella deserves better =P
Oh and I still firmly believe in - and hope desperately for - Happy Endings. It's what I live for! XD
xxmadlaxx
PS: and who knew I'd be preaching monogamy like Bette Porter in season 1 of The L Word... *ROTFL* pay me no mind, it is late and I... simply hate the idea of sharing.

Feeling slightly sorry for jasper though. That was hecka awkward.
One thing I didn't understand is this line "Newborns are terribly Id based." - what does ID based mean? O.o?

Date: 2009-01-24 10:10 am (UTC)and...um.....you should make a living out of writing vampire!sex scenes cuz---well...just wow
youre freakin' amazing at it *nod*
and ok- so maybe i felt bad for jasper for a bit there, and that makes me feel weird cuz when i have my pairing for a fanthom, well thats my focus and i dont usually give a damn about the others, or, well i do just nowhere near as much so the fact that i felt bad for jasper is a big deal for me.
Still though, i am SO SO SO SO happy that they girls got their unrestrained sex on and that jasper seems to be realizing that our girls are each others and noone elses
I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE NEXT BIT!!!
OMG
Date: 2009-01-24 12:28 pm (UTC)Ahhh, Jasper...I don't know if I want to kick him out faster or hug him close to my bosom and tell him everything will be alright...poor guy.

Date: 2009-01-24 02:01 pm (UTC)Poor Jasper, I almost feel slightly bad for him. But even Rosalie thinks Alice and Bella look good together and Jasper himself said Alice didn't mind Bella jumping her bones right then and there. I think he's starting to realize he's becoming the odd one out, the third wheel. He does deserve a dignified exit though, he's been so good and understanding so far.
Emmett is priceless as always. Lol. He's such a man.
Fan-f*cking-tastic update. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. *waits
eagerlypatiently to read more* In the meantime, I'll read this again.super!ness
Date: 2009-01-24 02:55 pm (UTC)I just want to tell you that this is my favorite bellaxalice fanfic by far! Your writing makes me feel happy and giddy after I read the latest chapter! :)
Keep it up, plz! :D
I heart you!!!!
Date: 2009-01-24 04:52 pm (UTC)I was going to message you today to beg you to update...I had been going into withdrawal.
That was so amazingly HAWT! And Emmett was spot-on. Hee hee. Even Esme saying the family should leave them alone to screw was completely lulz!
More soon, please! It's realy not pretty to make a fat girl beg (well...sometimes it can be fun, tho)...lol

affection is simply not 'in love'. it can't compete. he can't compete. oh jasper... i'm so sorry. i've been there.
so to make it short and sweet, this was wonderful.

Date: 2009-01-25 01:31 am (UTC)Your Emmett and Rose are just complete and utter win and you I can't help but love them. Oh and Emmett's reaction to the A/B action was pretty much comedy gold. His dudeness is just part of his charm.
I'm glad that Alice is choosing to acknowledge that there's something amiss in her relationship with Jasper. I guess its nice that she wants to spend time with him b/c I know that she cares for him but something tells me she’s still in denial over how much trouble they're really in. Can't wait to read the next part.
Oh yeah and I'm loving The Hollows fic binge too, any vamp!love is good love.

Date: 2009-01-25 05:23 pm (UTC)And hot vamp!sex. Really really hot.
The whole Alice walking around naked was hilarious too. Haha.
Though the whole sex on the living room floor was ridiculously hot, I can't help but to feel sorry for Jasper. I mean, I want him to go, but still. :~
Rosalie and Emmett are amazing. And hilarious!
Anyway, great chapter! Can't wait for the next.
THANK YOU!
Date: 2009-01-25 07:58 pm (UTC)Bella’s head spun. She was delirious. She felt like she was floating, floating in a dingy in the middle of the ocean. All that she was certain of was that she was with Alice, and that Alice felt warm, and smelled good, and tasted delicious. She could feel Alice’s slick, velvety inner-walls clenching at her fingers, and she could hear every soft moan and intake of breath her lover made. All around her was surrounded by Alice. Alice’s scent, Alice’s wetness, Alice’s breath, Alice’s warmth … everywhere there was, Alice, Alice, and Alice.
I loved this part...it illustrates how much Bella needed Alice in that moment. And, hopefully, for many more moments in the future. Which makes me feel sad for Jasper, but this story is about Alice and Bella, so Jazz needs to hit the road and maybe head for Denali or something. Our girls are the real deal!!
I'm looking forward to some cute Alice/Bella time....cuddling, talking, learning the ropes of being a vampire.

Bella's reaction to Alice is win. just confirms more how much of a soulmate she is. the growling is so adorable. and Bella jumping Alice right there in front of everyone is hilarious and hot. she's gonna be so embarrassed when the fog of lust lifts though. :D and Emmett is priceless lol. such a guy! i was like "O.O Dude!" as well after i read Emmett's comment lol. Rose and Emmett bantering/teasing is awesome. poor Jasper. he's heading for a heartache and he's starting to realise it.
no subject
Date: 2009-01-30 01:02 am (UTC)Oh, and ridiculously hot uncontrollable vampire sex?
YES PLEASE.
More.
And I also feel sorta bad for Jasper, especially since he had to go through that, but I think that both him and Alice need to realize that this isn't really working, because he's clearly already hurt. I think Alice knows that this situation is kind of a lose-lose. She hurts him if she doesn't break it off with him, and she hurts him if she does. It's just kinda sad. I don't think Jasper or Bella will be able to "share" Alice for much longer, and that'll bring the angst and the sadness.
Alice and Bella are so perfect together though. And the fact that the only thing Bella could see/hear/feel when she walked into the room was Alice, just further cements their chemistry and their connection. Their meant to be. :]
Can't wait for more! Loving it.
P.S. You sorta maybe still own my soul.
