Chapter 1: Thoughts
BPOV
Gosh, I was so worried about the pack. What if they got hurt? Or killed? They were only warm-blooded, soft fleshed mortals after all, and Victoria was the complete opposite. What if they did catch up to her? So many What If's.
I sighed and got up off the sand and continued my way along La Push beach.
What if she got through their defences and hurt Charlie or anyone else? It would be all my fault.
With another sigh, I headed back to my truck.
Huh? Why does it feel like I'm being watched? Oh well. "Must be paranoid," I nervously chuckled, not meaning to speak aloud.
I kept walking, a little faster than before. I listened for anything. A branch blowing in the wind, an animal call, footsteps, rustling, anything! But nothing, and that frightened me.
Finally I reached my truck, and drove as fast as it could go, back home. I still feel like someone or something is watching me. I desperately looked around, nothing, but I knew something was there. Victoria? I hoped not. I looked back. Finally! I turned off the truck's engine and raced to the door.
About an hour later, I felt the feeling slowly fade, and peace returning to me.
I know I fell asleep, because my vision got a little blurry, fading into black. Next thing I know, I was staring into a mirror. My reflection was looking back, brown eyes locked with brown eyes. Same face, some posture, same shape and same size. Then, my reflection blinked and grinned. I didn't move. Then the girl stepped out of the mirror and closed her eyes. She started to get younger. And 18 year old one moment the next a 15 year old. From 15 to 10, then 10 to 6. then she opened her eyes and I gasped at her colour. I then woke myself up out of the dream by jumping up in my bed. "Her eyes!" I whispered, putting as hand on my forehead and starring blankly at the wall in shock. "Her eyes!" just then, I saw movement in my peripheral vision. I looked to the window suddenly. Nothing. Then I swear I heard a sigh. I rubbed my eyes and checked the window again. Two small, glinting eyes were staring at me with amusement. There was no way I could miss the colour of them. I fainted soon after.
