A/N: Sorry it took me awhile o post. The story is based on the song "Offer" by Cruel Black Dove. I hope you enjoy! ^,.,^

It has been ten years. I now go by the name Amanda (Mandy) Cullen. I am no longer Amanda Westwood, she was a run away monster. Amanda is in the past. The past with James and the poor innocent man who barely lived. I will admit I do miss James at times, but I know I did the right thing by moving in with the Cullens.

The Cullens welcomed me with open arms. They are all the family I never had. Alice, Emmett, and I are the closest. Edward likes to call us the Wild Childs; carefree. Well, that's what he says. Rosalie, Jasper, and Edward are more of the serious types. Rose and I bicker, but we're always joking. We never mean what we say to each other. Emmett and I have this weird thing of knowing what the other one is thinking. Not like reading our minds like how Edward does, we just understand each other more than anyone else. Alice says it's because we are always around each other. Carlisle and Esme treat me like a daughter and for that I am very grateful.

We had moved to Forks, Washington about 3 years ago. It was now around March when everything started to change. It was when Bella Swan; the Chief's daughter moved to town. It was the first day she was here and at Lunch time. Emmett, Rose, Alice, and Jasper were already there. Edward and I were late because Carlisle needed to have a talk with us. We both walked in at the same time. The noise everyone was making in the Cafeteria hit me as soon as we walked in. I could hear the new girl and Jessica Stanley talking about us. We all chose to ignore them.

"That's Edward Cullen. He's gorgeous, of course. But, don't waste your time. He's single yes. But, apparently, no one around here is good-looking enough for him." Edward and I smirked at what Jessica said. We heard her perfectly. She was still mad Edward turned her down. Poor girl…not!

"Who's the girl?" Bella asked. I could feel their gaze on us while we sat down at the table where the rest of our family were sitting at.

"Amanda Cullen. She's single too. Every guy at this school practically fell head over heels for her, since the other two were taken. But, like Edward, no guy around here is good enough for her either." she chuckled, "To be honest I don't see why every guy falls for her. She might have the brains and dress the best out of all of them, but she's not even that pretty."

"Liar. She thinks you are the prettiest. She envies your hair and how graceful you are when you walk. Oh, and she wants your boots." Edward said under his breath. I grinned.

"She's just jealous Mandy." Emmet said looking up at me and smirking.

"Thanks you." I replied.

"Yeah," Alice piped up, "she's probably still mad that when we showed up here, Mike was in love with you and never gave her a second glance. Non the less glance in her direction at all."

Alice was talking about what happened when we first moved here. Everyone in the school had crushes on at least one of us. But, everyone was too intimated to come up to us. Which was a good thing because when we leave here, no one is supposed to remember us. Everyone has to continue on with their lives. But, of course there is always that one person who never gives up. His name was Mike Newton. The boy was crazy I tell you. On Valentine's day I found a bundle of roses and a card that said, 'Will you be my Valentine?' in my locker! My locker! On Christmas he tried to kiss me under a mistletoe, but I turned him down. Every time he asked me on a date I turned him down. The boy finally gave up at the end of last year. Thank goodness! Everyone always teased me about it. Jessica always hated me for it too, not like I cared about what she thought anyway.

"She thinks she's the prettiest? I mean your pretty and all Mandy, but prettiest? I think we all know who that is. That girl obviously has something wrong in the head if she thinks you are. I mean look at me." Rosalie said fixing her hair.

"And you say she has something wrong in the head." I muttered, but I knew everyone heard me. Everyone at the table started laughing while Rose scowled.

"I don't see what is so funny." Rose glared. I smiled smug. Everyone else was trying to contain their laughter. Our laughter caused others in the Cafeteria to stare at us. The Cullens never laughed. We always look like we were bored out of our minds and never talk, non the less laugh.

"It's okay Rosie. She didn't mean it." Alice said trying to comfort Rosalie, "Besides, we all know who has the big head around her. (cough) Emmet (cough)."

That just caused us to laugh even more.

"I do not!" Emmet protested. We laughed even harder at that. Even Rosalie was laughing. By now everyone in the Cafeteria was looking at us. I opened up the water bottle at the table and started to take a drink. The water might not be refreshing to us, but we had to look at least a little bit normal.

"At least Rose and I don't make all that moaning and groaning you and Jasper make every night, so the whole house can hear." That was it. The water I was sipping, I choked on and spit it out and it landed all on Edward. The whole table was in hysterics now. And I was sure everyone else was looking at us.

"I do not!" Alice protested, but she was still grinning.

"You do too!" I laughed. The bell rang telling us Lunch was over. Our laughter finally died down, but we were still grinning like fools. We all went our separate ways. Alice, Emmet, and I went to Art, which was our elective. Rosalie and Jasper went to World History. While, Edward went to Biology.

It had been a week. And it was 2nd period: Algebra. I had Bella in this class too. Mr. Dior was saying the seating chart since apparently everybody is too busy talking with their friends then to pay attention in his class. The chart was very random.

"Newton and Stanley."

"Yes!" I heard Jessica say across the room, while I heard Mike groan. He wanted to sit next to Bella.

"Cullen and Swan." I was a little wary about sitting next to Bella. Edward said her smell was intoxicating. But, non the less I moved to sit next to her. She looked at me curiously.

"I'm Bella." She said a little cautious. Jeez. What did Edward do to the girl?

"So I've heard." her eyebrows furrowed, "You're the talk around town. Bella Swan: the Chief's daughter staying in Forks. I'm Amanda."

"Yep. That's me." she said unenthusiastic, "You moved here recently right? When does the news die down?" I smirked, leaning back in my chair getting comfortable.

"Hate to break it to ya sweetheart, but the news will never disappear. It will most likely die down in about a week or two. Everyone just needs to get adjusted to having someone knew in town, then they will hopefully go back to their lives before you even came here. I mean, my family and I have been living here for about three years now and look," I said, "they're still talking about us." She nodded grimly, but looked shocked that I had talked to her. Non the less tell her that much.

"Now class, let's began. I want all of you to turn to page…" Mr. Dior started his lesson. I was left in my thoughts, slumped in my chair. I already knew everything he was talking about. All our teachers never got mad at us if we weren't paying attention, like all the other kids. Cause in every test, quiz, homework assignment, final grade, you name it; we always came out on top. I saw in the corner of my eye, Bella look at me confused at why I wasn't listening to the lecture. I turned my head slightly and winked at her. She put her head down and continued writing notes. Apparently, Algebra wasn't her brightest subject.

Edward was right. She did smell good, but I knew better. If for the slightest second I thought about sucking a human dry, I always thought about the man with his wife and child. The thought would always snap me out of my human blood lust immediately.
