APPEARANCE
Even though she is a human Bella has a very pale skin tone. Her skin isn't as pale as if in a vampire, but it is still very white, even though she tried to get some tan while living in Phoenix with her mother, before coming to Forks, but always claimed she never really looked those girls from that kind of climate, she was always more 'Forks' looking. She has slightly under shoulder-length long, mostly straight, dark brown hair with few waves here and there, and with natural red highlights visible in the sunshine or in light, gleaming in her hair. Her eyes are wide and chocolate brown. She has a heart-shaped face, a thin nose, and a narrow jaw with a pointed chin and full lips.
She stands at 5'4" and weighs about 110 pounds. Her body is slim and not so exotically built, but her looks are still not the less lovely and beautiful for a seventeen year old girl, and along with her sight clumsiness, it does give her a slight charm of a 'lady in distress', as she said herself. Bella also has a small crescent-shaped scar on her hand where she was bitten by James when she got while he tricked her into coming to him in order to save her mother. The scar is very pale, more pale than her usual skin tone, always a few degrees colder than the rest of her body, and shined like a vampire's skin when in the sunlight.

PERSONALITY
Bella tends to be very clumsy and insecure at times. She is suspicious and doubtful about many things. She fears blood and isn't able to bare speed, she almost fainted when Edward carried her while running from a forest at the edge of Forks, though by now she got used to it She is very caring and understanding, and would always put others safety and feelings in front of her own. Her sense of humor is dry and sarcastic, she often uses it in many situations, and it can serve quite useful and amusing, but sometimes miss-understood and confusing to her human school friends.
She's usually a terrible liar, but in tense situation where being a liar is more than necessary, she tends to be very good at it. She does prefer honesty, though, and can't stand when someone lies to her. Due to the lack of her self-confidence and self-knowledge she can even be slightly naive at times, believing lies of others easily, but only to lies of people who she cares about. Usually, she recognizes when someone is telling her a lie, but when Edward, for an example, would tell her a lie, she would blindly believe it probably, in most cases, unless it was very obvious he is hiding something. For her own safety and the safety of others, she tries to be better at recognizing lies and is more careful and suspicious about certain situations, being determined to know only the truth.
She is usually very diligent, always making her homework on time, trying to help around the house as much as she can to leave less stressing and work for Charlie. She is also a good cook, inheriting that from her mother, but luckily in a more milder way, never experiencing with cooking like with chemicals like her mother often did, and always cooking just what she knows and can read from recipes. In school she doesn't really like trigonometry, but still tries to become better at it. She loves reading most of all and can read a book ten times if the book really grows to her heart.
At dangerous and tense situations, she always reacts slightly reckless at times, being ready to save others over her by any mean possible. Even if she has an idea that is possible to cause no damage to anyone, she often makes it looks quite risky and it takes others a long time to agree with it. When James was catching her, for an example, it took Alice's determent agreement to her idea of running from Forks by coming to Charlie first, since it would indeed cause a bigger panic if she left without a word, for the others, mostly Edward, to accept the very idea himself.
I'll hide all the damage that's done

PETS -
HISTORY
Isabella Marie Cullen was born on September 13 1987 to Renée Dwyer and Charlie Swan, while they were still a young couple living in the small town of Forks, Washington. Due to family problems, Bella's parents divorced when Bella was six months old, and Renée took Bella with her when she moved to Phoenix, Arizona. While growing up in Phoenix, Bella didn't fit in well in... Well almost anything. She was always slightly lacking self-confidence which resulted with her clumsiness and nervousness whenever she needed to do or act something important, making clumsiness cling to her forever more later on. She tried piano and ballet lessons but finished the piano lessons from dislike, and ending ballet lessons for never fitting in and not being very well at it, though she actually did carry a thread of grace and elegance since she was born in herself.
When her mother remarried a famous sports player Phillip Dwyer, Bella saw how she loved to spend time with her new husband and suggested she should move to Forks until Phillip finds a certain job, making it able for Rene, Bella and himself to settle down somewhere again. Bella was absolutely terrified and completely skeptic about moving to Forks, though she insisted on it. While arriving she realizes her new life there might not be such a disaster after all. She even got a new car from her father, a really old red truck, but she fell in instant love with it. In Forks high, surprisingly, she soon finds new friends and even boys that are attracted to her, since she's such a new interesting thing to everyone, which actually bothered her a bit.
But her attention was set on someone completely different at Forks, on the mysterious Cullen family. At the school they were all very deserted from others, hanging out only with each other, never interacting almost at all with other students. But the one that intrigued young Bella the most was one of the youngest, Edward Cullen. Very soon she ended up in the same biology class as him. He acted very strange at first, even repulsed by her, so she thought at least, but later on he acted like a true gentleman. His behavior indeed confused her until she found out the reason for it; he was and still is a vampire. Due to the attraction and growing love between them, though Bella always thought she cared more from him than he for her, Bella got more curious about him, and after an interesting conversation with her childhood friend Jacob Black at La Push, she discovered the horrific truth about Edward, though it didn't lower the amount of her affection for him.
When telling him of what she thinks, he soon confessed to her about his true life and being a vampire. Since than they got very close, and their love relationship developed very quickly after that. Edward was also very over-protectively acting around her, always keeping her out of trouble, even insisting that she stays aware of the danger he himself presented, though she never minded that. Her reckless courage and love blinded her of the truth, of the thirst Edward felt for her blood, but he seemed to fight it excellently due to his love toward her. After accompanying his family to a baseball game, Bella got involved in a crazy chase lead by a tracker vampire James, and ended up almost killed by him, though Edward saved her at the last moment by killing him.
Since than she truly became aware of all the dangers hanging around with vampires presented, but it still didn't manage to keep her away from them. On her 18th birthday though, even though she insisted on simply ignoring it, since being depressed by the fact she is getting physically older than Edward, who will forever be 17, an incident occurred as she cut her finger on a piece of paper, and Jasper almost killed her, though the other Cullens stopped him. Edward than decided it's better for Cullens to leave, in order to keep Bella safe, to make sure she has a normal life again, "as if he never existed", by lying to her that he doesn't want her anymore. He thought it will make things easier for her to move on.
But that caused great deal of mental pain to Bella. She acted as a ghost during the time he and his family were gone, barely living from day to day. It was when she started to hang around with Jacob Black, with the primary purpose of him helping her fix a motorcycle to ride on, since she felt Edward's cautious and raging presence in situations at which she put herself in danger. But as time went on, her behavior got slightly back to normal again, and she discovered how she truly enjoyed spending time with him. Even when she found out he became a werewolf, she still longed for his presence even more. They were very close and everyone teased them of dating, but after Edward's return, it was clear she loved only Edward. Once later Jacob even kissed her, declaring his feelings to her, while being constantly in rivalry with Edward, when Bella really discovered she loves him, though her love toward Edward was and still is bigger.
Now, there are rumors about new vampires roaming around Seattle and near to Forks, and Victoria is coming back after Bella to do her revenge. Bella's nightmares of Victoria ruin her dreams more and more, the Cullens swear to do everything to protect her, though Bella still disapproves of them, or the werewolves, getting hurt because of her. The battle is near, all Bella unfortunately has to do is just wait.
But I show how I'm feeling until all the feeling has gone

{this sample is happening after Twilight, between New Moon's beginning and Twilight's end}
Another day passed that Edward was away. Bella would never want to keep him hungry due to spending all of his time with her, more than all she didn't wanted to limit him and wanted him to be free when he wants to. But each time he was away, Bella felt as if someone took the air out of her atmosphere. Each breath she took felt sharp, like a thousand knives pierced her with her every sigh, like invisible threads were pulling her down her each step. Motionless, she set on the kitchen chair, left alone once Charlie ate his dinner and she washed the dishes. Throughout the day she managed to plan it fully, so she could avoid thinking of him as much as possible, but by now she realized it was quite impossible. And now, when she felt completely numb, alone, with nothing to do, it attacked her again. All the emptiness.
She was surprised herself how much she missed his presence whenever he was away. Like a drug. "You're exactly my brand of heroin." , she remembered when he once said to her, his crooked smile appearing in her mind flawlessly, and a smile flickered upon her own face, as if he was smiling at her right this moment. But she never thought her memories or thoughts of his presence served him right, he was always much more perfect than she tried to imagine him when he was away, whenever she saw him again, as if he was more and more surely divine. She leaned her head on her palm, her elbow leaned on the table, and sighed deeply, feeling the air in her lungs getting thick and painful again. What was he doing with someone like her? She would barely deserve someone ten times less good as he was, and to be loved by someone like him, it all still felt like a dream to her. With her luck, she'll wake up on her airplane to Forks, she'll come here, everyone will hate her and the Cullens won't exist. She bit her lower lips firmly, her thoughts made the air she breathed even more unbearable, and for the thousandth time she wished she was a vampire, in this case because they didn't have to breath.
The sentence he said went trough her mind again, and she wondered did drug addicts feel like this whenever they needed a fix. Remembering clearly, the exact location, place and time when Edward toled that to her, made an idea spark up in her mind. Suddenly, she stood up, rushing her steps to the hallway, deciding not to grab a jacket, since even though this was Forks, summer here was pretty much warm. Her half sleeved tan colored shirt with brown edges, and the pair of jeans she wore, should be enough, since at this time of the year, it was pretty much impossible to freeze to death, even in Forks. It didn't even rain today. But Bella didn't even think of any of those small possibilities and details, as she yelled to Charlie she was going to take a walk, not even bothering to explain further or to respond to his angry requests of telling him where and with who she headed. That 'with who' was mostly because of Edward. Bella hated the fact that annoyed her to bits, how Charlie never seemed to have completely came to peace with the fact Bella was dating Edward.
But this time Edward was on the completely other side of the place she was going. He was hunting with Jasper at the mountains, at he very edge of Forks, miles away from where Bella was heading, and even though by her each step she was officially more and more further away from him, she bit her lip firmly again, and continued to march off to her car. Well, at this point, she lied to Charlie, she wasn't really going to take a walk, and Charlie will be mad when he sees the red truck out of the driveway, but she didn't really mind. Ever since she met Edward she tended to get used to sudden decision and risky situations, but she started to love them and not hate them as she should have. Opening the drivers door, she quickly got in, lighting the ignition, and the hard roar of the engine coming to life made her smile, and made her relieved. She was by that perhaps a step further away from Edward, but closer to the place that connected them more than any other place there was.
Once the engine made the car move, ever so slowly, Bella's relief was yet bigger and she pushed the biggest speed it would go. Poor fifty-five miles an hour were all her truck was ready to give, but she embraced that speed happily, even though it was incomparable with the speed she got used driving in Edward's Volvo, it was the most her truck would give, and Bella was glad it even tried and didn't die into a pile of metal once she pushed the speed to such limit so fast. Driving the car out of the driveway, she continued down the road. The time until she came to the woods, and the trail she remembered went surprisingly fast. Just like at a drug addict, she gave herself a bit of her addiction and already a sensation filled her, everything was fine and normal. She felt pathetic at how she exaggerated with this entire situation, but somehow it was out of her control. She got out of the car and breathed in and out deeply. Already did the air feel less painful. Closing her eyes with a frown she tried to remember the path Edward took her to the place she was going to. Finally, after probably half a minute, she opened her eyes and nodded her head, moving on, avoiding the path anyone would expect her to take, but in this case it would only confuse her since Edward took another path.
Stepping further into the forest, she realized what time of the day it was. She made herself so busy, and along with all the worries, she lost track of time. When the sunset burnt sky started to fade, and her eyes were having more and more harder time getting used to the dark, she realized everything around her felt the same and unknown. She gasped with slight panic traceable in her breath, beginning to move backward. After a few steps, looking around her, she missed the fact she bumped into a tree behind, and it took all the strength she had to sustain a scream. She swiftly turned around, almost getting her feet tangled into the vines on the floor, and realized that she really did bump into just a dark tree trunk. Turning back around, avoiding the fact she should be extremely lucky she didn't trip and fall again, she sighed with relief and leaned back on the tree, letting herself slip down to it, until she was sitting down on the ground. Suddenly, the air became hard, sharp and cold again. For a moment she thought her throat was cut of action, but than she realized that the sudden lump in her throat enabled her to consume air for a few seconds. Closing her eyes tightly she struggled to stay focused and calm, suddenly being washed over by the fact how foolish and reckless this truly was.
