Chapter Three

Bouquet

---

-- His POV --

I can't believe I just left like that. It was so..illogical, to put it nicely. Right now I'm in the dorm I share with Emmett and Jasper, Emily was in the other room changing. I was sitting on my bed, with my back against the wall, which we painted a dark red color. Emmett just wanted it that way, I guess.

I didn't turn my head when I felt arms snake around my waist, and Emily's head resting on my shoulder. I was currently numb to all types of feeling. I had been within five feet of my angel, and I walked away.

"It's okay, Edward.." Emily muttered lightly, running her long fingers down my arm. I ignored her, for there was commotion outside our dorm. I brought Emily with me as we opened the door a crack and watched what was going on. There was Alice, hugging someone on the ground. When Alice finally asked the person what was wrong, she got no reply.

She shook the girl's shoulders. I couldn't tell who it was from our position. "What's wrong, Bella-Wella?" Bella.. Bella was wide-awake and here! Then Jasper spoke.

"Bella can't talk. It's a mental condition." I pang of guilt ran through my body, as my sister looked about ready to cry. Alice hugged Bella once more, crying out how sorry she was. Why was Alice sorry? It was all my fault. That Rebecca girl walked up to Alice and Bella, kindly pleading for Alice to let go of her cousin. Then, Alice suddenly hugged the other brunette, too.

I heard footsteps coming up, then stop. The person..smelled familiar.

"Yo! What's going on?" What..? Can't be.. I could have sworn..!

"Hey, Caterina." Not possible!

I got a good look at the girl who came up, also taking in that Jasper, Alice, Bella, Rebecca and the new person were the only ones present. None of them took notice of Emily and I. Her hair, it was the same exact bronze slash copper mine was, and her eyes were odd. One was of emerald green, the other of bright topaz. I heard her speak again, asking If someone was trying to kill Bella by hugging her. Emily chuckled lowly.

Rebecca informed the other girl of Alice, and how she was friends with her. Alice, she was starring oddly at this Caterina girl. She looks a lot like Edward.. Should I ask? Something deep inside me, everything would go down at one point in the next two minutes.

Bella hugged Caterina for something she had said, and I felt jealousy. The other three walked up to Bella and my female look-alike.

"So..Caterina. You wouldn't happen to know," Bella's ears were covered by Rebecca's hands, sensing danger. "Edward Anthony Masen, would you?" Oh boy, this wasn't going to end well. Then, Caterina's hands covered Bella's ears as well, then a shrieking scream escaped her lips. I..I've heard that scream before..

-- FlashBack --

Year: 1917

"Sister! Sister, where are you?!" A sixteen year old Edward shouted, his lungs burning from running for so long. He suddenly stopped, falling to his knees and taking deep, lung-filling breaths, trying not to pass out on the spot. An older figure stopped next to him, placing a shaking hand on his shoulder. Edward looked up, his once bright green eyes, full of anguish and sadness.

"It'll be alright, Edward. Calm yourself. Masen boys don't give up." Edward quickly shook his head, agreeing that his older brother was right. He got back up, dusted himself off and started running once more, searching everywhere for his lost sister. His sister of only fifteen had gone missing a few days ago, and he and his older brother, Alexander, weren't going to rest till they found her.

They kept telling themselves that.

A scream rang out through the pouring rain, a sound neither of them wanted to hear.

"Caterina!" Edward shouted, green eyes wide with horror. There was his younger sister, falling from a five story building to her death. She looked to be unconscience, so she was pushed. "NO!" He shouted in protest, as he tried to run after his sister's falling body.

"No, Edward. You'll be killed by the fire the storm has created. We can't loose you too." Alexander was gripping sixteen year old Edward around the waist, from running to his doom. Tears streamed down from his green eyes, though the rain mixed with them well.

"No.. She was the youngest of the three of us. Why did she have to go..?" Edward sobbed out. His brother hugged him tightly, not letting his own tears fall.

"Come now, Edward. We must tell mother and father of what has happened." Alexander stated, as he took his younger brother by the shoulders and pushed him toward their home on the other side of Chicago. Another blood curtling scream, and Edward thought it was from the fall.

But it wasn't.

-- End Flashback --

I just came back from remembering that horrible night, and was trying to get caught up with what was happening. All I knew, was that a boy, my height, had his arms flourished in flames and was standing there in front of Jasper and Alice. Probably because Caterina had fallen to the ground, holding my Bella to her chest, dry sobbing quietly.

Memories of our human life were running through her mind, as she thought my name over and over again in her head. Rebecca shouted at "Cameron" to stop, but he wouldn't have it. He was going to tear Jasper to pieces, then Alice.

Then, something that should have surprised me, happened.

Bella had escaped from my sister's grip, and ran toward Cameron, hugging him tightly from behind. Her clothing and skin were getting burned, but it only lasted shortly. The flames went out, and Cameron turned around, holding my Bella to his chest. She had black out once more.

Not good.

Everyone except Caterina had huddled around the unconscious Bella, for Caterina was staring off into space, thinking of what had happened just now.

All my fault.. It's all my fault she got hurt again. I couldn't stand hiding anymore.

The next thing I knew, I was hugging the fifteen year old girl, who's eyes were wide with shock. Everyone who were in the small circle around my angel turned to look at me, while Emily opened the door completely, staring at us all.

"It's not your fault.." I spoke to her as calmly as I could. Her mind was racing, so many thoughts running around at once. Slowly, her arms etched slowly to encircle my back, as I hugged her even closer. For a few minutes, that's all she did. Then, she spoke in such a small voice.

"..Edward?"

"I'm right here, Caterina. It's not your fault.." I reassured her. Then, I was tackled to the ground, as my younger sister sobbed into my chest, her shoulders shaking. If vampires could cry, I'd be under an ocean by now.

"E-edward! My god, I-i missed you so m-much!! I c-could hear yo-ou screaming f-for me, but he had m-me tied u-up." She cried, meaning what had happened that day. The day she was turned into a vampire. I cringed at the very thought of the pain my little sister had gone through. Alice was wide-eyed. She hadn't seen this coming.

"Ssh.. It's okay, Caterina."

"Like hell it is." Cameron snarled, looking down at us, with a burned Bella hanging limply in his arms.

"Cameron." Rebecca growled, warning him to step away from the two of us. Caterina stood, helping me up as well.

"Cameron. Get Bella to the fucking hospital now!" Caterina shouted at him. "That should have been the first thing you did, idiot!" She insulted him.

"Have our dad look at him." Alice suggested. "He's still in the nurse's office." With that, the red-head was gone.

Silence.

"What the fucking hell just happened?" Emily asked, her arms crossed over her chest.

Wouldn't we all like to know?

-- Her POV --

God it's cold.. Where am I? Last thing I remembered was being held by Cameron, and a pair of topaz eyes staring at me from a crack in the door. His topaz eyes.

I tried to open my eyes, but I was to tired. I felt exsuasted.

"Ah, Bella, you're awake." A voice called to me, an angel's voice. But not my angel's voice. I felt a towel being removed from my forehead, then being replaced with another one. I finally cracked my eyes opened, turning my head to look at none other than Carlisle. "Hello, Bella. You seem to be getting injured a lot today." He tried joking, but there was no humor in his voice, no smile on his lips.

He walked over to me, but I had closed my eyes again. "Don't fall asleep yet, Bella. One of your friends wants to talk to you." I nodded, as I opened my eyes again. I cold, icy hand was running placed on my cheek, and it felt good.

"Hey Bells." It was Justin, but I was glad to see him, even If I couldn't show it.

"That was a stupid thing to do, Bella." Another voice made me open my eyes completely, and I looked into the topaz eyes of another vampire, Alexander. His copper hair was unruly, like his, but it was longer, till past his shoulders. "You know not to touch Cameron when he's on fire, you know that!" He said, his voice filled with worry, and I frowned.

"But, he was gonna hurt Jasper and Alice!" I mouthed, trying to sit up. I was pushed down gently, and I frowned again.

"I don't care If he was gonna blow up the entire school! You know you're not suppose to do that!" He scolded, wagging a finger in my face. I stuck my tongue out at him.

"Alex, calm your ass down. You know how protective Bella is of her old friends," Family, you mean? I knew Justin didn't want to refer my old vampire family, as well, family. They were my family now, so what did it matter?

"Is Bella okay?" A voice asked from the door, as I was picked up and hugged by Skylar. "Ooh! Bella! Never do that again! You got burned badly!" I did? She sat me down in upright position, and I looked at my arms. All scarred from the fire of Cameron's rage, but my clothes had protected my torso. My eye twitched.

"How's my sister doing?" Alexander questioned the black-haired girl, his eyes still filled with much worry.

"She's talking with him right now. Maybe you should too, Alexander." Skylar stated, and my friend's eyes were wide. He was just told his brother was still alive and that he was talking to his younger sister. He was out of the room at vampire speed, before Skylar could tell him where they were.

"He'll find them, don't worry." Justin said, sitting next to me. Carlisle walked back into the room, a small smile on his lips.

"She can go now, the burns were mostly protected by her clothing, so she just needs to get some rest, and a change of clothes. "He stated, trying to stifle a laugh. Skylar busted out laughing, while Justin placed a white sheet around my shoulders.

Damn. The pony underwear returns, along with it's sidekick, pony bra!

I'm going to kill Rebecca for giving them to me.

"I'll take her back." Justin said, picking me up off the bed. I struggled, wanting to be put down. I could walk, damn it! He chuckled, as he walked human speed out of the nurse's office, and I could hear Skylar and Carlisle starting to talk as we walked away.

"I don't need your fucking help, Justin!" I mouthed angerly, and he "tsk'd" me, shaking his head in disapproval.

"Now, now, Bella, language." He scolded me, and I smacked him upside the head, even If it hurt. I stuck my tongue out at him afterwards.

"God, so un lady-like." Rebecca said, as she walked up next to us, making Justin stop.

"Says the girl who got me pony undergarments!" I shouted at her, not actually saying anything. She giggled, and Justin chuckled. I pouted, and I knew they were glad to see me with more emotion. The return of my old family did wonders, surprisingly.

"Oh my god, Skylar told me about that just now. You need to be more observant, Bells. You should have known better than to sit up in bed with just a bra and underwear on."

My glare stated 'I hate you'.

"Here." Justin said, as a bouquet of roses appeared in his hands after he let my feet touch the cold tile floor. I shivered, but he handed me the red roses none-the-less.

"Show off. What would Skylar think?" Rebecca stated sarcastically. I pet the roses lightly, just barely grazing their soft petals. My eyes were sad, and a frown was upon my lips. Justin's power was amazing, the ability to make objects spontaniously appear out of thin air. He used it to cheer me up, but most of the time it only depressed me more.

They noted my depressing aura, and this time it was Rebecca who picked me up, bridal style at that thought. "Come on, Bells, let's get you back to the dorm. Luckily, Sky.."explained" your situation, so don't worry about classes. And we'll bring you lunch, too." I shook my head. I still hated being babied, but they wouldn't have it any other way.

"And your sketchbook is already on your bed, so don't worry. None of us read it, promise." I nodded, my eyes drooping as I laid the roses on my chest, my fingers barely grasping their stems. Justin had been nice enough not to add thorns, or I'd be cut up right now. My eyes closed, and I let my head fall against my cousin's shoulder, and I fell asleep.
