Maggie's Story
I walked into the big house with Renesmee after I picked her up from school. We walked into the main room and saw Maggie from the Irish coven sitting on the couch chatting with Alice. She flashed the biggest grin possible at us. "Hi Bella, Hi Renesmee."
"Hi Maggie, want o play Jenga?" Renesmee smiled. I looked down at her.
"Renesmee, homework." She frowned.
"Mommmmmy," she wined , "but Maggies here!"
"No buts, you've can talk to Maggie once your homework is done."
"Hmph." She plopped down on the floor ,opened her bag ,took out a worksheet and started working on it.
"So ,Maggie, what are you doing here?" I asked.
"Mommy, What year did the Titanic sink?"
"1912 ," Maggie said , "I was on it."
"You might as well tell them the whole story now." Alice said.
"okay then I will. It was 1912 , I was 10 and the oldest of 7 children. My Father had recently died and my mother wanted us to have a fresh start in New York, so, she, my three younger brothers: James, Cari ,and Angus, my three younger sisters: Sadie, Mary , Elizabeth, and I went on the Titanic, first class," she paused, "We explored the ship most of the day, then returned to our cabin around 7 . We went to bed early at around 8:30," Maggie looked at her hands twisting around in her lap, she swallowed hard and continued, "My mother woke us around midnight ,telling us to get up to the deck and to stay together. We fallowed her , my siblings eyes were wide with terror. My mother turned to me and said ' Maggie I forgot the picture off your father' the only picture we had of him, the only thing that reassured us that he wasn't just a figment of our imagination. 'I'll get it, I'm faster than you,' I told her, she nodded and let me go," Alice wrapped an arm around her shoulder,.
"When I got back up to the deck they being put into a lifeboat, as they lowered the boat down my mother caught my eye and mouthed 'I'm sorry'. I eventually went down with the boat, I was dieing in the cold water when I was changed by a logger from 2nd class. When I woke as a newborn I searched for my family," Maggie looked up at me, it seemed wrong that she didn't have tears in her eyes I knew that if she was capable of producing them it would be Niagara Falls.
"I found them," another pause , "all dead, clinging onto each other while they froze," her thumb rubbed circles on her necklace, she felt my gaze, "it was my mother, I took it from her body, I thought she owed me that much, and I still have the picture, though every time I see it I'm reminded of that night."
"Maggie, why did you think you're mom owed you?" I asked.
"I'm sure Edward's told you that we bring special characteristics into our new life, I could always tell when people where lying," the side of the mouth twitched up then instantly fell, "when my mom said she was sorry, she was lying." My mouth dropped. I could only process one thought: oh my god.
