“We should go speak to Carlisle. Maybe he’ll know something about this.”

“Wait, I think I know why I’m like this.”

“Tell me,” I said. I took her hand in mine, marveling at the difference in her temperature. It was just one of the many things I would have to get used to, now that she’d been changed.

“Well you know I’ve always had this thing against blood, right?”

I rolled my eyes. “Yes, I still remember having to carry you to the nurse after you nearly fainted during blood testing. I think Mike Newton’s still mad at me for that.” I smirked, remembering how she’d complained about being in my arms.

“I had a feeling you’d bring that up. Well, I was always able to smell blood, even before the change. Only now it’s gotten stronger, my sense of smell, and so has my aversion to blood. I don’t know if I could do it, if I could feed. If I even can.”

I mulled over her words, remembering Alice’s vision: “She seems to have some type of immunity. She’s impervious to something, but what…? I just can’t see it yet.”

    Very nice balance of the fantastic situation and the cute, realistic, familiar memories.

    I just read the whole series. I was actually wondering if Bella would have an immunity like that, myself. I’m working on a fanfic right now that does involve this as Bella’s strange ability but it definitly isn’t the strangest thing going on.
    Anyway, I like this very much and I really want to keep reading.

    I agree with THX . I love how you brought up those memories and Mike Newton. That guy never had a chance with her. But I have this question, if she does have an aversion to blood what will she eat?

    Okay, who am I kidding? If it’s here I’m going to have trouble not reading it. I like how you balanced the present situation with the memory of the blood test and his caring her away to the chagrin of Mike Newton.
