"Oh come on Eddie. Loosen up a little." Boomed My big brother Emmett. I was older, but he was much bigger, thanks to the very thick bands of muscle that created most of his enormous body mass. I narrowed my eyes at him.
"Don't call me Eddie." I growled. Emmett's grin widened.
"You're so uptight. Just go out and have some fun." Emmett said.
"Stay out of my business Emmett." I snapped standing up sharply.
"Touchy. You-" Emmett was cut off when Alice came prancing in, in all of her pixie like perkiness. "Guess what I saw." she sang. My head filled with her vision. A pair of new eyes, the color of crimson. A new born. Then the picture changed to the hospital that my dad Carlisle worked at, and the room 165. And then there was Alice talking to someone I couldn't see. "We are going to be best friends. I can just feel it." Alice was saying, and then the vision ended. My eyes snapped to her. She was smiling, her short dark hair bounced as she hopped in excitement. This wasn't unusual for Alice. Her small frame seemed to barely let her sit down on the couch next to Emmett.
"Isn't it great? I can't wait to meet her. I wonder who she is. She has to be nice, and like shopping." Alice babbled on. Still not letting herself settle down.
"Calm down Alice. What does it all mean?" I asked pacing over to her. Her gold eyes twinkled as she answered.
"We are going to get a new sister." she said. Her face became more serious. "Either that or she's going to die." She added.
I crossed my arms over my chest, and narrowed my eyes. "No. We. Are. Not." my voice was low and the tone hoarse. Alice flinched back a bit.
I spun on my heel. "I'm going to talk to Carlisle." I called over my shoulder and flew out to my silver Volvo. I sped towards the hospital, driving 95 mph. Humans drove so slowly, because their reflexes are no where near and sharp and accurate as ours.
I slowed down when I stepped out of the car. There were many people around, so I had to put on a show. And I was playing the part of a human teenage boy.
"Hello Edward." Ms. Reynolds said smiling at me. She was a nurse that was always at the front desk for the emergency room, and recovery patients wing, where my adopted dad work. 'Your looking very cute today' she said in her head. I hear many thought like that every where I go. "Hi miss Reynolds." I mumbled as I walked over to the elevator. I could her my dad's mind three stories above me, but I was too far away to hear his thought clearly. The elevator doors slowly slid closed, but before the gap was sealed, an arm shot in and made the doors reopen. I held in a groan as a nurse walked in. I recognized her from school. Her name was Lauren, and she was the school slut. She was an intern.
She twisted a strand of her blond hair around her French tipped finger, and gave me a smile. She was staring at me out of the corner of her eye. I blocked out her thought immediately. At school me and my family were what you would call antisocial. We were just a very close knit group. And to all of the people at our school, we were intimidating. I guess this applied to Lauren as well, because she didn't say a word. I got off on the fourth floor and followed the familiar feeling of my dad's mind to room...wait. Oh no. room 165. I knocked on the door frame.
"Come in." Carlisle called. I looked in to see him with a young woman maybe my supposed age of 17. I didn't pay much attention to her and decided to have a very quiet chat with Carlisle in the corner.
"Edward. What are you doing here?" Carlisle asked. I took a stride into the room and my body froze. My senses jolted as I was hit with the girl's scent. It crashed into me like a wave and I started trembling, forcing myself out of the door, where the scent wasn't so strong.
"I had to talk to you, but I can see that's not a good idea." I said, bitter venom filling my mouth. I swallowed it and clenched my fists.
"We can talk when I get home son." Carlisle said calmly, "I just have to talk to Bella a few more minutes, then I'll be home for dinner." Well, hunting anyway. I can tell it's important, but don't tell me here. The girl- Bella, cleared her throat. Carlisle turned to her. "Do you think I could have a glass of water? My throat is killing me." her voice said hoarsely.
I looked at the girl. She was gorgeous, her deep brown eyes glaring at me. Her hair tumbled down to her elbows in loose curls. She was pale and her skin was perfect and creamy. Wow. But she gave me a look that made me flinch. She had a very affective glare if it could make a dead man's heart skip a beat.
"I'm going now." I said through my clenched teeth. She threw me a sharp look. A pang of guilt passed through me. I turned on my heel and walked down the hallway, holding my breath. When the elevator's doors finally closed, I allowed myself to relax.
