Pain is a funny thing...
People say
it makes you stronger,
but when you experience pain, all you
feel
is weakness and self pity...
and all you can say is...
why?
I
look around to see that I an in a room
full of people. But, alice
and I are still alone. I
Seem to know that there are a thousand
eyes watching me but I only feel two.
Alices...
I want to reach
out and touch her...
to tell her Im sorry...
To tell her I
missed her,
that I love her like a sister...
But I seemed to be
paralyzed by her icy gaze...
She was as a statue carved out of
stone...
Finally I managed to move my numb arm
out ot touchher
face,
but in a flash she's gone.
Yes, I am still in a room full
of people...
But I am all alone...
I had awoken from
that dream with a jolt. I
was absolutley covered in swear,
but
I did not care.
one thing conqeuredall other
thoughts.
The
icy look on alices face.
It was the same look she had given me
before
she left...before I had made her leave.
It gave me
goose bumbs then...
It gave me goose bumbs now...
There had
been something in
the dream that I had almost
forgotten.
When
alice left,
jasper took her place,
I was crying.
he...was
smiling.
"good morning sleepy head," Said a
smiling
jubelant rosalie.
She was just as beautiful as any
supermodel
times one-thousand.
I was so proud to have her as a mother
that
I actually got teary...
Bella apeared with unchallenged grace
to
embrace me...
"how's my favorite little sister."
She
said in a perfect singing voice.
Soon they were all
soruonding me.
Petting me, embracing me the way they always
did.
Renessme was there to kiss my forehead gently.
She was every girls dream of what a big sister should be.
She understood what it felt like to be caught between the lines
of humanity and vampiressness.
I was the most human of all,
But the third of my blood was purely vampire,
and it craved for blood.
Blood which I refused to accept.
Finally, my favorite members of the family...
Jasper and emmett.
"Hey there
small stuff" Said emmett
in his usual playful voice.
He
was gentle and protective,
my perfect adoptive father.
"How
did you sleep my gorgous little plum"
said jasper, the best
big brother ever to exist.
Little plum, he always called me
that,
and I always loved it.
But, now it was preceded by a
question
I wish I didnt have to answer.
"I. uh, had a bad
dream." I spoke
timidly. "Oh, what was it about
love."
spoke uncle edward suddenly.
He was so unhumanly
caring.
"um, alice...a"
the room grew silent,
everyone was fozen in place
like statues. Only me and renessme
even dared to take
a breath.
Alice had left so long ago...
But
the pain of her absence was still fresh...
