"Happy birthday!"Edward exclaimed as I climbed into his Volvo. It was my 18th birthday and I didn't want anybody finding out.
"Don't say that. You know I don't like attention."
"Well get used to that because this weekend my family and I are taking you to an amusement park for your birthday. We were going to throw you a party but it would've been a disaster."
"Yes it would have I wouldn't have spoken to you for the next week."
"That's not what I mean. Alice saw you getting a paper cut and Jasper trying to kill you. Well that causes me to leave. This causes you to jump off a cliff for a cheap thrill. This causes me to fly to Voltura. You have to come save me and it's a big mess."
"What's in Voltura?"
"The most powerful vampire family ever."
We pulled into the school and I stopped questioning him. As soon as I got out an excited Alice was bouncing in front of me. She handed me a small box.
"That is where I draw the line. No presents."
"Take it or I announce your birthday to the whole school."Alice threatened.
I took the box and opened it up. Inside was a cd.
"Thank you"
She handed me an envelope.
"This is from Carslie and Esme. "
I opened the envelope. Inside were plane tickets to Jacksonville.
"This is too expensive. I can't accept this."
"Fine but just expect a lot of attention today."
"You win."
I slid the cd and tickets into Edward's car. I then took his hand and we walked off to class. The day passed by in a blur. I just wanted to go home and go to bed. I hated attention. Luckly only Edward his family and my parents knew. As soon as I got out of my last hour I hurried to Edward's car. I climbed in and took a deep breath. Suddenly I felt someone grab me from behind.
