Edward?
Edward led me down the long hallway and stopped in front of a door. He opened it and gestured that I walked through. I obeyed, despite my curiosity. How did I know Edward? It was torturing me inside. He seemed so familiar…
"Carlisle and Esme are ecstatic that you're staying here, you know," Edward murmured, his expression hard to place. "They haven't had a guest in a long time."
"I'm much obliged to them," maybe I should ask him. Maybe he'll explain everything to me. How did Alice know I was coming? How did I know him? I opened my mouth, but the words stuck in my throat.
"I suppose you are wondering why Alice tackled you and knew about you coming here." He said starring at the floor, but not really looking. Whoa. It's like he read my mind or something. However I knew him, we must have been close if he can guess what I'm thinking. "Like you, she has an extra sense. She can see visions of the future…"
"Oh, I see," It was normal for our kind to have an extra sense of some sort. "Pardon me, but, I cannot remember our meeting until this evening."
"Well, the last time I saw you, you were five years old." He smiled. Finally, an expression I could recognize. I was five, though? Five? That's when I moved to Mobile, Alabama to live with my Aunt Helen. I've lived there until I was twenty when I was changed…but where have I seen him before?
"Do you remember Elizabeth Masen?" he asked, his voice gentle. His expression was unrecognizable again. Elizabeth Masen? Suddenly, I remembered.
