1. A weird day

I woke up from a bad dream. This was the third time I had this dream. In this dream there were three man, vampires to be exact. I knew they were from the Volturi and I knew I had seen them before when I was little. But the image I had from them was faint and not bright. Only in my dreams they became clear. It was the same dream every time. I was with Jacob, but then the Volturi came saying it was forbidden to be friends with a werewolf. After these words they ran over to Jacob and bent over him. They bit him over and over again blood dripping from their mouths. And I just stood there frozen, speechless and in horror till it became clear what was happening. At that point I started to scream and I woke up still screaming.

My heart pounded hard. I looked around and it calmed me to see that I was in my warm and safe room. My heart slowed down. I stood up, put on some cloths and brushed my hair. Downstairs, Jacob sat already in the living room. I smiled when I saw my best friend sitting there. I was always smiling when I saw him, but I didn't understand why. I knew him my whole life and with that I mean seven years. The weird thing is that I'm seven years old, but I look like I'm seventeen and my mind was also like a seventeen year old teenager. I had grown so fast that it made me a little confused and I felt weird about it. The children I knew didn't grow as fast as I did. I felt like an outsider. My parents always said to me I was special, but I didn't believe them. Everywhere I came people stared at me and it made me uncomfortable. But when Jacob was there I felt safe and calm. He was a friend of the family and lived with us. It was a riddle for me why he did though. I don't know anyone who has a friend living with them.

I walked towards him smiling. "Hi Jake are you stalking me again?" I joked. He looked at me and laughed.

"Well you know me! Stalking is my hobby, especially when it comes to beautiful women." He joked back. I felt my cheeks turning red. He had never called me beautiful before.

"I...very funny Jake." I stumbled. His face looked serious now.

"I'm honest when I say you're beautiful Ness." I didn't know what to say, so I sat down next to him with my face red.

"Where is everybody?" I asked changing the subject quickly.

"They are packing their last things before we go," he said and yawned. We were going back to Forks after we had lived in Alaska for six and a half years. Nobody knew that my parents had a baby…me and because I was different they moved to Alaska. It was their plan to live there till I had grown fully. And then we would go back to Forks telling everyone that Carlisle had adopted another child. My parents would go to school, but not in Forks. They would go to a school were people didn't know them and they would tell the people in Forks that they worked somewhere after they graduated. So the people in Forks wouldn't get suspicious, because my parents looked very young just like me. They didn't come into town, instead they would say they were busy with work.

I sighed. Why was everything so difficult? Sometimes I wished I was human so we could have a normal life. I felt Jacob looking at me so I looked back at him. "What are you looking at me like that for?" I punched him on his shoulder and I smiled. Jake was like a brother for me. We were always joking around.

"Your face looks like an angel when you're looking like that," he said softly. I didn't understand why he was saying that sort of things. He never said that before. It made me a little nervous. I didn't know where to look, so I turned my face away from him and looked out of the window. "I really mean it." He took my hand and squeezed it.

"Thank you." I mumbled, because I didn't know what else to say. Luckily my parents came into the room. Jacob let go of my hand quickly and I could see on my father's face that he heard every word of what we were saying just now. My dad didn't look happy.

"We're going," he said curtly. I stood up briskly and followed my parents outside to the car. Jacob walked over to his own car.

"Ness are you riding with me?" he shouted. I looked at my dad, but he shook his head.

"Today she will ride with us," my father shouted back. I thought I even heard a little growl from my father. I was puzzled by his reaction. I turned to Jake, raised my shoulders and rolled my eyes. He started to laugh and stepped into his car before my dad could see his reaction. I stepped into the car too and shut the door. Today was a weird day. First that dream again, and then Jake saying that I'm beautiful and then the strange reaction of my dad. We drove away from the house. I would miss is it, but I was looking forward to seeing my grandfather again. I rested my head against the window and I watched the trees pass by. I closed my eyes and slowly I drifted to sleep.
