Together Again, Maybe?
It's been seventeen years since I saw him. Seventeen years since I made love with him. Seventeen years since he's been gone. He didn't want me and left me, shattered and pregnant with my twins, Renesmee and Anthony. My two children, born on the day the day of love, February 14 in 2010, were the only things that kept me sane after he left.
My daughter, Renesmee Carlie Howl, she looked just like me. Pale skin, dark blown locks, medium size, the only difference was her eyes. They were his eyes from when he was human, emerald green. She and her brother both are half-human and half-vampire. She even has a special ability. She can get into anyone's head, even if a shield protects him or her. I think it might be a reverse thing of my power, a mind shield, and when I became a vampire, a shield for physical attacks too, and make balls of energy with my mind in my hand, and then they explode.
My son, Anthony Everett Howl, looked just like him. His bronze hair, his muscular build up, but my human eyes, that deep chocolate brown. Anthony's power is more complex then his power. Anthony can do anything he wants with his mind, move objects, get into peoples heads, talk to people in their heads, and so on.
I also haven't seen Jacob since I found out I was pregnant. When he found out that I became pregnant he got mad and ran away. He was the almost the last one I could rely on. So at six months pregnant, I flew to my cousin's place in a very small town called Durham, Maine. It wasn't even on any map! But it was like home. A lot of rain and snow, just like Forks. She was the only person who I thought would understand, only because I could really talk about things with her because she and her husband were vampires. She knew all about the vampire world and embraced it with open arms like I did.
My cousin Kara, or as she likes to be called Karalynn and her husband Kenny ended up a lot like me, but happy and married. Karalynn Howl, or her real name Kara Lynn Howl, is 36 years of age but is only physically 18. She has long brown locks like me and her eyes before they were changed were a deep hazel-green. She is about 5'11 and is a very calm person. The only time she gets excited is when she's extremely happy, which doesn't happen often. Her power is that she can control the elements to do her every command. In any fight she got into, she always came out unscratched. Her husband, Kenny Lancer Howl, is 44 years old but only physically 18. He was changed during the 9/11 in 01. He doesn't remember who changed him but after he woke up he ran. Never saw their faces, he was scared. Kenny is about 6'4 and very sweet, has short messy onyx black hair, and before he was changed he had hazel eyes too. He never snaps at anyone, even at the kids when something really bad happens. Karalynn said that was one of the reasons she fell in love with him. As a human, she could never think very straight and thought very lowly of herself, but Kenny was patient. His power is to see into people's past.
On their honeymoon she got pregnant with twins like I had. They were born on the 31 of October in 2009 eighteen years ago. Her two children, Krystal and Kevin, are now at the age of eighteen.
Krystal Lillian Howl looks like her mother, brown locks from our side of the family and hazel eyes. She is now 5'9 and has the power to see into the future, but with some complications. She can see the future of our coven and of humans, but not other vampire covens. But the same thing happens vise versa. If another vampire can see the future, they can't see our coven's, only Krystal can. Although she can only see our future based on our decision.
Kevin David Howl looks like his dad, black hair, but hazel-blue eyes 'some blue from others in the family' Karalynn had told me. Kevin was about 6'1 and had the power to block other vampire's powers and erase human and vampire memories.
We all had lived together since they had taken me in. Traveling from one place to another. Kenny was the person who brought in the most money. He worked as a surgeon, but we the three of us made some good money to go into the Howl clan's account. Karalynn was a author for many young adult stories, like Luna, the Witch of the Moon, Valika, Princess of the Vampires, Molly, the Miracle Mummy, and now working on her fourth book of that series, but I don't think she has a name for it yet. She also has written the Crystal Blossom series, which has about five books in that series, with about four other books that have no series. And myself, I don't really make any money, but I do like to help out people. Besides cooking for the kids, I cook and give food to orphans in the homes all around the place.
We were now in Durham again, that is after Kevin wiped everyone's memory of us. The kids went to school while Kenny went to work and Karalynn and I stayed home. Both sets of our twins had stopped aging by their seventeenth birthday. Being both human and vampire made an interesting combination. They had blood and a heart beat, but had skin as hard as a normal vampire, and had strength and speed like us too. But the best part was you couldn't smell their blood. I was relived when I found this out.
Karalynn was in her library/workroom and I was cleaning the house, Claire de Lune by Debussy was playing in the CD player. The phone then rang and Karalynn shouted, "I'll get it Bells!" I shouted an ok back up to her and returned to my cleaning.
Karalynn came down moments later with the phone in her hands. "That was Krystal, she and the others saw some vampires at school today. Kenny and I are going to contact them and try to get to know them, who knows we might become friends with them. Tell the kids when they get home all right. I need to go out for some inspiration, I hit some writers block again." She sighed, I on the other hand laughed. "This is like the third time this week that you had writers block! Is it really that hard to write a book?" I asked.
She glared at me, "Well why don't you try it and then tell me how it goes." She said. We both let out a sigh and let it drop. We were both stressed lately with all the work and the kids. Karalynn was working night and day to finish this next book before her due date, only a few weeks from now. "If you need me I'll be on the beach at Searsport, it's cloudy for the next few days and I need a break, badly. If I was human my arms and fingers would hurt like hell." She said, taking deep breath to compose herself. "I might be back tonight, if not have Kenny come after me. I'm sure he doesn't want to be stuck with the kids that long." We both laughed. She then walked toward the front door and I shouted at her "Bring me back some pieces of blue if you find any!" She shouted back an ok and ran out the door. Her beautiful hobby, collecting seaglass. It's one of the things she loves doing besides being the leader of the coven and one of the world's best writers.
I thought back to what Karalynn said though, write my own book, not a bad idea. I looked at the clock, it said 2:39, and the kids should be back soon. While I waited to give them the news, I grabbed my laptop and began to type. I decided to write my life's story, from when I met him. Although I used different names. My name in the book was Ella, his name I made Evan, Jasper was Jazz, Alice was Ally, Rosalie was Roza, Carlisle was Cody, Esme was Holly, and Emmett was Everett. I wrote about moving in with my dad and how I first met him.
I was just writing about going to the beach with my friends when the kids walked in the front door. "Hi Mum." Renesmee yelled as she talked me in a huge. Anthony laughed and pulled her off of me. While restraining her he said "Afternoon Mom." I smiled and kiss his head. He was a pure gentleman. "Hello honey, was you day?" I asked giggling.
He ran a hand through his hair and looked a little uncomfortable. "To be honest Mom, not to well, the new kids were staring at us, and when we went to lunch we saw them all sitting at a table together. There were five of them. Two couples and a single man." He stopped for a moment and let go of Renesmee. He ran a hand through his hair again and looked away. His eyes then meet mine and he whispered, "Mom that single man at the table looked just like me. Could that be our father?" He asked. I couldn't say anything, my hands were shacking and I began to hyperventilate. My kids rushed to my side and tried to calm me down while Krystal and Kevin tried to reach Karalynn and Kenny.
Karalynn burst through the door and carried me upstairs to my room. She ran into my closet and dug through everything. She pulled out my old photo of him and I from our prom night. I thought that if I kept it he would come back. But it's been seventeen years and I had given up hope. "Come here Anthony." Karalynn said, her voice calm. He walked over to her and she gave him the picture. "Is that the man you saw?" She asked. He slowly nodded and she quickly turned her head to me. "It doesn't matter that he's here." I whispered, "He doesn't love me." I curled up into a ball and dry sobbed. All four of the kids tried to comfort me while Karalynn went to go get Kenny.
They both came up a second later. "Bella," Karalynn said, "We had already invited them over so we can't stop them now, but you can stay here if you want." I nodded and she, Kenny, Krystal and Kevin left my room. Anthony and Renesmee stayed with me until they had to join the others. I sat there alone and cried.
I then heard the doorbell ring and listened as Karalynn walked over to the front door.
