I do not own Twilight or any of the characters from the book, however I do own Eric and Sinclair.
Emmett 's POV
The scene in Port Angeles was much duller then usual. Only a hand full of people walked in and out of the small Italian restaurant/bar we found ourselves in. I took a glance at my little pixie like sister trying to figure out if she saw these vampires that we were supposed to meet.
"Be patient, Emmett. They have yet to arrive" The smooth voice of Edward replied, answering my unspoken question. I found myself glaring at him. I do like to have some privacy in my own mind sometimes. A small smirk appeared across his face alerted me that he heard that comment too.
The small show of happiness was quite the contrast of what Edward had been doing for the past, hmm what, two weeks? That was when Alice made her prediction about this encounter. More specifically how Bella needed to be here with us. I guess the idea of his human Fiancée being around a potentially dangerous vampire just wasn't his cup of tea. Go figure.
From the constant moving that Bella was doing it seemed that she was a bit more worried about this then she had been letting on.
Edward wrapped his arm around her waist pulling her protectively to him. I swear he acts as though Bella's going to make a run for it or something. I bet Edward was one of those kids who killed every single pet that they had. That would explain his separation issues.
"I do not have separation issues." Edward remarked calmly. "I do, however, have problems with anyone who might threaten Bella."
The last part he stated quietly so no of the nosy patrons could over hear. Just as I opened my mouth to respond Alice interrupted.
"Will you two relax? They'll be here in a few more minutes and we need to be seated in the left corner by the time they get here." Her matter-of-fact voice brought our conversation to an end.
Alice glided over to the table she had referred to followed by me and then Edward and Bella who seemed to be taking their time coming over here.
I sat down next to Alice and Bella and Edward sat across from us.
" So, when they come in, are we just going to walk right up to them?" I turned to look at Alice. Bella really did have a good point there.
"Of course not. We're going to wait for the male to catch our scent and approach after he directs us to." So we were going to have to wait for these people to get here, and then wait for them to be ready to talk to us? Man, this was going to be a rather boring night.
We sat in silence for a while. Alice was staring off at the men by the counter drinking beers with a disgusted look on her face, Bella and Edward doing their usual Edward and Bella things and then there was me, staring at the door and losing my patience. I ended up facing the window, hoping that I could at least be entertained by the habits of the humans walking around.
Two more minutes went by before I noticed it. A strong fruit smell, I'd have to guess it as a mixture of strawberries and apples, but it wasn't only that. I could smell small hints of vinegar. Strangely enough, even with my heightened senses I could barely smell the vinegar. From the wide eyed looks I saw from my siblings I knew that they smelled this unusual concoction too.
The three of us turned towards the door as two people walked in, both looked around their mid twenties. The man had entered first, gently pulling the woman behind him. From first glance we could easily see that the man was vampiric by his pale skin and dark red eyes. The pale-blondness of his short hair in combination of the characteristics that are inherited when someone becomes a vampire seemed to draw the attention of every female in the area. So much for vampires not wanting to draw attention to themselves.
The quick paced walk that the man was striding at brought his companion into view that much faster. She was his exact opposite.
The woman had long black hair that fell past her ebony shoulders. Instead of the red eyes that the male possessed, the woman had green eyes with specks of blue.
Even the way they walked showed their differences. The man with his fluent stride between tables and the woman who was barely dragging her feet on the ground. It was quite a sight, but her scent keeping pulling me away from that. I couldn't really explain why it was so enchanting. The only thing I could think of was a wild rose. So beautiful and yet unspoken promises of danger hidden beneath.
"So that's them?" Edward's voice pulled me from the walking two.
"Yup." I turned between Edward and Alice wondering if any of them got that same feeling as the girl walked by.
"Yeah. I got that feeling too." Edward had a pensive stare as he stared at his glass. I wonder what he's thinking about.
The two people sat down about three tables away from us and ordered immediately, looking like they rather not be disturbed. They're going to be disappointed.
It took only a few seconds before the man caught our scent and turned to look at us. His body went stiff and he wrapped his arm around the girl pulling her close. I watched him look each of us up and down, probably trying to figure out the probability of him winning in a fight against us.
I chuckled to myself. A mind reader, a psychic, and…well, me. His chances just weren't looking so good.
We seemed to be at a stand still. I just wondered which one of us would break first. I'd bet a peso that it would be Alice.
So how was it? Good, bad, confusing? I'd love to hear your comments or any criticism that you have to offer. I have no idea when the next chapter will be out, but the more reviews I get the faster I'll have it out.
