Sorry, this one's a little short I think.
Edward got off of Emmet and looked at me, and for the first time I heard him speak.
"What's so funny?" The tone in his voice made me get a hold of my self, then I made a face I'm sure showed how much I disliked the fact that he was here, like something was stinky.
"Nothing," I was wandering if this was how they always traveled, a coven of vampires and a human riding piggy back on the biggest one. I had to suppress another laugh, but not because I didn't want to be rude, more because I didn't want to inhale his scent. I looked over at Allice. "What now?" I asked my patience reaching an end.
" I have an idea," she said, and looked over at Rosalie who just smiled. "Bella, we want you to play a game with us, just to break the ice that's between you and my brother. Maybe then you'll agree with me when I tell you what it is I need to tell you."
"You want me to play a game with a human I can break?" I raised my brows and looked at her.
"Don't be silly, you wont break him. If we play this the right way, then I can tell you something I want you to know." she looked over at Edward, he just stood their looking as if he were interested in the forest around him.
"Do I want to know what you want to tell me?" I asked, she nodded her head.
"I'm sure you do...if it has to do with your future." she raised an eyebrow at me. And I must say my curiosity got the best of me. I would have loved to know my future, but I didn't know if I could trust them.
"Ok," I gave in. "I'll play your sick little game. What is it anyways?"
"Hide and seek...with Edward." She looked over at Emmet and nodded, he then picked up Edward again and ran off into the forest. "Emmet hides Edward out in the middle of no where and we have to go find him. But you have to find him first, if you want to know what it is I want to tell you."
"Is there a time limit?" I asked
"What's your curfew? I don't know, if you don't find him maybe the wolfs will and eat him. Emmet's not gonna stay with him." I couldn't let go of the feeling that they were up to something, but I couldn't leave him alone out there.
Seconds later Emmet appeared again and he looked over at Allice and nodded.
"Ok, you ready?" she said looking at me. "Go!"
In an instant they all disappeared, and I was left alone. I figured I might as well join them so I decided to start off by sniffing him out.
I caught his scent and followed it. What seemed to be an hour later I found what I thought was him, but soon realized it was his jacket. Great, I thought. They scattered his belongings. I hoped he wouldn't freeze to death out here. I picked up his trail again and followed it, and again I was lead to a piece of his clothing. Was he going to be half naked by the time I found him?
Two hours into my search and I was about to give up. I was following his scent again and I had a feeling this was the real deal. It was much stronger than before, it was solid.
I saw him before I reached him. He was at a stream sitting there, probably wandering who would find him first.
I sat there, unable to move. I knew this guy by name, and by face. But I didn't know him, know him. I couldn't just swipe him off his feet and take him to his house. Even if his sister could tell me my future. I had half a mind to leave him there and ruin all the plans they had for me. But I can't be that cruel.
I was right behind him, ready to poke him in the pack and I froze. Despite everything I was, I'm still a girl. And no girl ever approaches a good looking boy. No matter how pretty she is.
I stood there for half a second when he turned around and startled me, and instead of running away at super fast speeds, like I planed to, I tripped over a rock and fell on my bottom.
"Are you ok?" he asked suppressing a giggle.
"I'm fine." I said. "I cant really get hurt any more." I looked around and it was just me and him. I didn't want to sniff the air, I found it easier to be around him when I didn't breath. "I thought some one else would have found you."
"No, we did this on purpose...I mean they, they did it on purpose."
"What! Why?!" I was about to implode with anger. "She's not gonna tell me anything is she?"
"No, she is." his voice was calm, unafraid of the fact that he was with a near hostel vampire who could kill him if she pleased.
"What does she want us to do?" I asked as the realization hit me. This was supposed to be some sort of sick date.
"Talk, maybe. Get to know us better." he looked down at me, for he was after all, taller than me. "I would like to get to know you better." This caught me off guard. Was he hitting on me?
"I'm sure you would." I said. I sat down on a near by rock unable to look at him just yet.
So Allice wanted us to talk, and I was in no mood for such thing. I was never good at talking to the opposite sex, I always got too nervous and slurred what I was saying. I caught him looking at me, his eyes narrowed.
"What?" I asked.
"I just don't understand." he said, then he walked to the stream again.
So he left me with a cliff hanger sentence that was supposed to get me talk, I fell for it too.
"What do you mean?" I asked. He looked at me and shrugged. "Don't do that! I wanna know."
He was probably smiling at himself, he got me to talk.
"Well...I just don't understand why you are here. I thought it would be dangerous for me and you to be in the same place at once, especially alone." he turned to me and pulled out a pocket knife.
I suddenly understood everything.
This was a suicide attempt. And all his siblings were in on it.
"So, if I cut myself right now. Would you be able to resist?"
"Don't even play like that Edward. Put the knife away." I don't think I was registering everything the right way. I was a vampire and he a mere human. I could yank the knife from his hands in one stroke. But I didn't catch that. My brain wasn't functioning right.
"I'm not going to do it, it's not my time to die yet. And I don't want to speed up the process, just yet." he looked at me with curious eyes and gave me a half smile that would make my heart skip a beat if it still did. "Maybe you should take me home. It's getting kinda late." he slipped the knife back into his pocket.
I rolled my eyes at him, realizing that I Did have to take him home. I picked him up and in an instant we were gone.
I dropped him off at the back door of his house, and after a short thank you he went inside. I went straight home after that.
Charlie wasn't home yet and it would be a while until he did get home. I went to my room and laid on my bed. A few seconds later I was surprised by Allice and Rosalie. They stood perfectly still in the frame of my door.
"You can come in." I said, regretting it at the same time.
They came in and sat at the foot of my bed. Allice smiled at me, Rosalie just looked around my room, clearly uninterested in me.
"So..." I said. "What brings you to my room?" Allice gave Rosalie a shove with her elbow. Rosalie then looked at me.
"So what did you and Edward talk about?" she asked me.
"Nothing. Your brother is suicidal in all sense of the word." Allice giggled at that.
"No he's not. He just wanted to see what he could get out of you." she put her hand on my knee.
"Ok, look, can you just tell me what you came here to say, Charlie will be here soon and I didn't even make him dinner."
"Straight to the point, I like that." Rosalie said.
"Ok, ok." Allice said with a pout. "I'm pretty sure you've heard stories, that when someone is turned into a vampire, that they bring with them a gift from their human life." I nodded in agreement. "Well, my special ability is seeing the future, for the most part anyways. I see it when people make choices, then I know what will happen after wards. Any ways, in one of my visions I saw you being the one responsible for Edwards...conversion."
"Wait. What? Me?" I was taken aback. I vaguely remember my own conversion, how was I going to do it to some one else. "I don't want to be the one to convert him."
"I figured that much out." Allice said. "But it's gonna happen." she looked at Rosalie, who was looking down at her feet. "Maybe it won't happen, but he will be a vampire one day." she looked at me again and smiled. "I have a feeling you'll be a part of this family soon."
"I don't know what it is you're thinking, but I am so not falling for your brother." I told her, knowing that for some reason I could be very wrong.
"C'mon," Allice said jokingly. "Even as a human he is attractive. And vampire or no you are still a girl. Besides who can resist Edward Cullen?" she gave me a smile that told all that was true. I groaned.
"I don't want to be the death of him." I said
"You don't have to be." she said, "I mean you like his smell, obviously, he can be like cat nip to you, just try not to eat him. Who knows, in a totally different universe, you are the human girl and he the vampire trying not to eat you." Now that would be just weird, and creepy. But so much better.
"Ok, Allice." I gave in for the second time in a day. "I'll think about it."
"YAY!" she screamed, a little to excitedly.
"Charlie's home." Rosalie said making me jump at the sound of her voice. "Lets go."
"Bye, Bella." Allice said before they were gone. I ran downstairs and threw a frozen dinner into the microwave before Charlie walked into the living room.
"Hey Bella," he greeted me "How was school today."
"Fine." I replied. "I'm going to go finish my home work, ok."
"Ok." he said and turned on the TV.
I went to my room and looked out the window. It was a cloudy night and the moon was trying to shine right through them. Like every other night I decided too go for a run. And I came back just before sunrise.
