Out of Place

I sat by myself in the Cullen house. The place looked fantastic. It had been a good call on having Bella and Edward's wedding here. While the others were decorating, I was sitting out of the way in the kitchen. They had things covered.

Sighing, I heard a couple more vampires come in through the front door. I heard Carlisle welcome the two, Oliver and Gregory. He told them to make themselves at home, then went to his wife who had called him over seconds before. Somehow, the two vampires had made their way to the kitchen and were now half-glaring at me.

"Hi, I'm Seth." I smiled politely. Before the two vampires could respond, Edward walked in.

"Hello, Greg, Oliver. It's good to see you again." Edward said, shaking their hands. "I see you've already met Seth."

"Edward, how could you let these things into your home?" one of them asked, disgusted. I was a bit too shocked to defend myself.

"Seth is not a 'thing'. He's a sixteen year old."

"He's a werewolf." the other crossed his arms, "Do you know what will happen if the Volturi get a hold of this? They'll rip your family to shreds! They spent years and years trying to rid the things from Europe."

"They already know there's a pack here." Edward stated simply, giving me a slight glance.

"There's a pack? My God!"

"Look, Seth's a good friend. I do not appreciate you coming in here and talking like this. This is a wedding, not a time for you to show your faces and bash other people."

Gregory and Oliver shared a look, but one of them said, "Of course not. Our apologies." they left the room quickly.

Edward took a deep breath, "Sorry about that Seth."

"It's no big deal, Edward." I said, still a little hurt. Why did vampires and werewolves have to hate each other?

"Some habits are just hard for others to break."

"Well, we did. I don't hate you. And I don't think you hate me."

"No, I don't." Edward smiled, "Glad you could make it, Seth." He left the room after patting my shoulder.

Me too.
