Family secrets
We we're finally home I couldn't believe it. I had my own bed back again. I never liked motel beds who know what people have done in them. I walked to Bela's room and the door was shut. I went to knock on the door but stopped when I heard Bela speaking to someone on the phone.
"Look my time is running out I need to know if there's anything else?"
I frowned wondering what the hell Bela was talking about and who was she talking to?
Chapter 1
It had been a month since the job where I got possessed. I can now remember everything from that night. At first it was kind of fuzzy but now I remember every little thing. I also remember what happened when I got home, what I had heard Bela saying over the phone. I didn't know who was on the other end but those words continued to run through my head. What did she mean by her time was running out. For the last month I had been trying to get Bela to tell me what was going on without letting her know that I heard her. But so far I had not succeeded. It didn't help that Bela didn't talk to me for a week for giving the Winchesters there Journal back. She said that she couldn't trust me now that's a laugh; she's the one that's been lying to me since I got here. And even now I know she's keeping something from me and this something seemed very important. I imagine it has something to do with the talisman but what does Bela need to keep demons away from her for. Had she gotten in trouble with some from a job? That wouldn't half surprise me in Bela's line of work.
I sat on the sofa in the lounge room while Bela was in the kitchen cooking. I was lost in my thoughts when Bela started calling out my name. At first I didn't heard a thing she was saying then slowly her voice pulled me away from my thoughts. I turned my head to look at her wonder what she wanted.
"Finally, are you going to be having anything to eat?" Bela asked pointing down to her plate of food. She has gotten over the fact that I gave the Winchester's there journal back by now. I looked at her plate of food and shook my head.
"I think I'm just going to go to bed," I said getting up and making my way to my bedroom. It's not that I wasn't hungry or that Bela couldn't cook it's just I had too much on my mind. I closed the door to my room after I entered and laid down on the bed, but I didn't go to sleep. I stared up at the ceiling listening to Bela walking around the house until she had finally gone to bed. I gave it about 20 minutes to make sure she was asleep before I got up out of bed. I walked over to the small desk on the other side of my room and opened up the laptop. I turned it up but once I did that I was lost. I tapped my fingers on the keyboard thinking.
Do I look up Bela or Abby, which one will lead me to the truth? All this might have something to do with Abby or it could have happened when she was Bela. And if that's so I don't have any luck in finding anything Bela's good at covering her tracks.
I sighed in frustration and leaned back in my chair looking at the bright computer screen. I couldn't track through her whole life it would take to long. But I need to know what's going on and I know for a fact Bela won't tell me a bloody thing. I sat up most of the night just staring at the blank internet page. When it got to around 3 am in the morning I decided to turn the computer off and go to bed. I wrapped the blanket tightly around myself closing my eyes and drifted off to sleep.
I was woken up early the next morning by the heels of shoes tapping against the hard-wood floor. I got up rubbing my eyes as I was still tired and my eyes didn't want to open up. I walked out of my room and saw Bela running from one end of the house to the other quickly gathering her things. I raised an eyebrow as my eyes followed Bela back and forth. I shook my head slightly and went over to Bela stepping in front of her and stopped her in her tracks.
"Oh Elizabeth your awake," Bela said with a warm smile.
"Yes I am and it's Lizzie you know that. Bela what are you doing?"
"I've got to go away for a few days a week maybe," Bela said stepping around me and went back to hurrying around the house.
"Away? Where are you going?" I asked turning around to watch her.
"I'm not sure yet, it's just business,"
"Well in that case shouldn't I come?" I asked and Bela stop and looked at me talking before she thought about what was coming out of her mouth.
"No. I….I mean you can't, I'm not even sure what the job is and I don't want you coming if it's nothing I know how easily you get board."
"Well you have a point there," I said scratching the top of my head and yawning.
"Yes, and I'm leaving you alone with the house but that doesn't mean that you can throw wild parties or anything like that. And no Winchester's you understand me," Bela said continuing to collect her stuff.
"Whatever I'm too tired to care right now," I said making my way to the couch and falling down on it.
"Tired? You went to bed before I did why would you be tired?"
Right I did oopes. I thought shrugging it off and not answering the question, I didn't have anything to cover it up right nowand Bela didn't seem to notice.
"Have you seen my phone?" Bela asked looking around for her phone. It seemed to be the only thing she was missing. I took a quick look around moving my head from either side not really making an attempt at all then I spotted her phone on the coffee table in front of me. I picked it up and went to call her to tell her I found it but a thought came to my head. If she doesn't I can look through it maybe find that number. I hide the phone behind my back and laid back on the couch.
"Nope sorry…you should take more care of your stuff," I said smirking slightly closing my eyes.
"Oh very funny. Never mind I have to go I'll get a new one and call you with the number. Now remember behave yourself Elizabeth," Bela said kissing me on the forehead then picking her bag and handbag up walking to the door.
"Lizzie!" I yelled after her not opening my eyes as I heard the door leave meaning she had left. I wait till I heard the car start up and drive down the road until I opened my eyes again. I looked over at the door making sure she was really gone. I reached behind my back and took the phone out looking at it for a few moments. This phone in front of me could just help me work out what's going on with my sister. Suddenly I found myself more awake even through I only had a few hours sleep. I couldn't sleep now. I opened the phone going to the call log and scrolling down the list of names which was when I learnt how much work I was in for. The only names I knew on this List where Dean and Sam and my own. The rest where complete strangers to me. I sighed and closed the phone throwing it on the coffee table in front of me. I had a lot to do and now I was feeling tired again.
After a good few hours' rest I walked back out of my bedroom, honestly I had forgotten about the phone until I saw it on the coffee table again. I knew I only had a few days to try and figure this all out so I decided it was time to get to work. I went over and picked the phone up going to Bela's contract scrolling down the list.
Where to start? Where to start? I thought to myself scrolling up and down through the list. I decided to pick a random name and pressed the green call button. I raised the phone to my ear listening to the phone ring. Someone on the other end picked up the phone and said hello.
Oh shit I didn't think of what I was going to say.
I decided to say the most obvious thing.
"Hello..."
"Bela is that you?" the man on the other end of the phone. That's the thing I loved about my English accent, all these American's couldn't tell the difference between people.
"Yes it's Bela who else would it be. Look I need to talk to you about what we we're talking about a month ago," I said into the phone.
"Bela we haven't spoken for other 3 months. I told you you'll get all the good jobs but nothing's come up." I sighed slightly after hearing this and hung up the phone.
One down and like 50 to go. I thought to myself going down to the next name on the list.
An hour had past and I hadn't gotten anywhere. Without taking the phone from my ear I moved my fingers over to the arrow button scrolling down another name and hit the green call button waiting for the person on the other end of the line to pick up and he didn't sound too happy.
"Bela, I'm to busy to fight with you call me back later," I was a little shocked at the voice on the other end of the phone. I took the phone away from my ear looking at the screen to see who I had called and it was just who I thought it was. I put the phone back talking.
"Dean?" I asked and just like everyone else he thought I was Bela.
"No it's the fecking Easter Bunny," Dean said sarcastically into the phone I could tell he had a smirk planted across his face.
"Sarcasm will get you no where with this jail bait," I said sarcastically wondering if the comment will make him realize who he was speaking to.
"Lizzie?" Dean questioned, his tone of voice wasn't so bitter anymore.
"No it's the other hot, underage, English girl you know," I said a smirk sliding across my face.
"Lizzie why are you calling me and why are you calling on Bela's phone? You wanna know where I am so you can take my wallet again?" Dean asked into the phone it surprised me he wasn't mad about that.
"I don't need your wallet I got all the credit cards I need,"
"I cancelled those," Dean said I could hear Sam muttering in the background; Dean covered his hand over the bottom of the phone speaking to Sam.
"You did? No matter they still got me these really cute shoes," This was true, I had decided to go shopping with the credit cards. I knew from the names on them they wouldn't miss them that much. Dean laughed slightly into the phone
"Well I'm glad I could help you with your shopping but how did you use them, they didn't have your name on them,"
"They didn't have your's either, I just told them that Daddy gave me the credits cards to go shopping," I said lying down on the couch.
"So I'm your Daddy now?" Dean said before he realized what he said. A smirk spread across my face and I laughed.
"Oh you wish you were Winchester, but unlucky for you you'll never know the things I could do," I could hear the phone exchanging hands as Sam spoke into the phone.
"Hey Lizzie is there something you need Dean and I are on a job right now,"
"Everybody's working, you two are Bela is," That when I remembered why I was on Bela's phone. I had totally forgotten all about it. Then the home phone rang behind my head I told Sam to hang on while I picked up the phone answering it.
"Hello…" I said into the home phone.
"Lizzie its Bela, I just wanted to ring and let you know this is my new number it should come up on the phone I.D," Bela said on the other end of the phone.
"Alright thanks Bela. Just one thing we're are you?" I asked, since she would know by now shouldn't she?
"I can't talk right now I must go bye," Bela said hanging up the phone I called her name into the phone a few times realizing it was no point and hung up the home phone. I put the cell phone to my ear again.
"Sorry Sam I rang the wrong number," I said explaining to Sam why I had called.
"Lizzie are you home alone?" Sam asked obviously he had heard the conversation between Bela and I.
"Ah…Yeah I am, but it's not the first time so it doesn't matter,"
"Oh right well…" I cut Sam off I didn't want to go into this right now
"I'll let you go and fight the bad guy's bye," I said hanging up the phone. Sam looked at the phone as I hung up then looked up at Dean closing the phone.
"What did she say?" Dean asked.
"She said she rang the wrong number, you know Bela just left her at home by herself," Sam said throwing Dean back his phone.
"She's a big girl, I'm sure she can look after herself," Dean said catching the phone and shoving it back into the pocket of his jeans.
"Dean you don't even let me stay by myself,"
"Well that's different we live in a very dangerous world…and so does Lizzie. What are we meant to do she's a Talbot besides Bela knows her better then we do," Dean said getting up and grabbing a beer from the fridge.
"Right because you wouldn't be upset if something happened to her," Sam said watching Dean.
"Hey I'll admit she's nicer then her sister and she hot obviously but that doesn't mean I'm gonna go play babysitter to the jail bait," Dean said leaning against the counter and taking a drink from his beer.
Back at home I decided to call one more person and then I would be giving up. I scrolled down past Dean's number and went to the next making sure the next number wasn't Sam's. I put the phone to my ear and waited for someone to pick up.
"Bela, you better be calling me to tell me your in Nevada ," the man on the other end said.
Nevada aye? Well this just got interesting. I thought.
"I haven't gotten there yet," I said into the phone hoping he would be fooled also by my accent.
"Well you need to get down there now or you'll miss the witch doctor and your time will run out,"
"Alright I'm leaving now," I said into the phone hanging the phone up.
"Witch doctors in Nevada, what the hell is Bela doing?"
