BEFORE I start this chapter, I would like to thank Lilballofenergyd. She's given me wonderful suggestions. She said, "I think that Damien might be a little too obnoxious for his own good though." I've tried to fix that in this chapter. Thank you! Also, if you think that Damien and Raelain have become friends too quickly, tell me! Same with Julieta and Anthony. On with the fan fiction, hmmm?
It's still the night of the sleepover, and the girls are playing 'Truth or Dare' while Damien and Anthony and the rest of the Cullen Clan are at home
Chapter Five
Damien POV
I was dancing around my room. I was ecstatic. I was happy. I was joyful. And when Anthony had come in earlier to get something from our room, he had given me the strangest look and had probably been thinking,
My brother has completely lost it. Then again, you can't lose something you never had. But nevertheless, I was so…words couldn't even describe it. Raelain and I had been on excellent terms since our project on vampires. I'm sure she had found me extremely annoying…but I guess she had overlooked that. She had even laughed a few times when I had "stolen" as she had put it, her pencil. We had gotten an A+ and I guess because of our good grade, as a result, we became friends. So, over a week, Hazel, Nick, Anthony, Raelain, Julieta and I had all become inseparable. Much to the dismay of Megan, Janna, Erin, Starr and the twin's fan club. Oh, well! I was good friends with Raelain! This was wonderful! Of course, I wasn't just dancing to nothing. I was dancing to a favorite song or rather "Drops of Jupiter" by Train. I glanced at the clock. 12:07 m.
I had better take my shower or else Alice and mom were going to give me holy hell. I grabbed a pair of flannel pants, under garments (A/N: I'm trying to make this as little awkward as I can, okay? Gosh.) and a shirt and a towel from the linen closet in the hallway and kept walking towards the bathroom. The door was closed and I heard Anthony singing in the shower,
"Singing in the shower, I'm singing in the rain.
And for doing so, I got hit by a train."
That's it. Anthony had definitely lost his mind. Even if he didn't have one to begin with.
"What a wonderful feeling. What awful pain.
And now you know…the dangers of…
Singing in the shower, singing in the rain…"
Yes. Anthony was out of his mind. (A/N: Note: I actually sing that song in the shower. I made it up in 6th grade….-waits for laughing- I WAS ONLY ELEVEN.)
"Anthony! Hurry up! I HAVE TO TAKE A SHOWER TOO! I NEED TO SLEEP SOMETIME, YOU KNOW!" I pounded on the door with my fist.
"In case you have forgotten, beloved brother, you don't need to sleep! You're a vampire!" He called from inside the bathroom. I still heard him switch the water off though.
"Good GOD, Anthony. You might not need to sleep, but I do!"
"Oh…right. Be done in a second. Literally." He was done in a second, being a vampire. He opened the door, whistling. He dried off his hair and threw the towel he had used in my face. I grabbed it off my face, and
"Throw this in the hamper for me, my good man." He said over his shoulder as he went back to our room.
"Errrgh." I growled, but did it anyways. I closed the door, and started the shower, waiting for the water to warm. When it was finally warm, I got in. I felt relaxed under the water, and when I saw what time it was on the clock that was hanging on the bathroom wall, I realized it had been 25 minutes. Jasper would go into a whole speech about how using too much hot water would hurt the Earth, and I did not want to go through that again.
Although I did care about it….I got out of the shower and dried off. I, unlike my brother, threw my dirty laundry into the hamper, and then got dressed into my pajamas. I walked back to my room, to find Anthony sitting on his bed listening to music and signing along in a horribly off pitch voice.
"Things have changed for me, but that's okay. I feel the same. I'm on my way, and I say…things have changed for me!" (A/N: The first five people who can guess the title of this song, I give credit to in my next chapter! And I'll give you a virtual cookie. Whadja say? D)
"For my sake and the rest of the family's sake, if you're going to sing, could you at least do it well?"
"Nah, I think I'll keep singing beautifully so the whole world can hear it."
"Oh Dear Lord, you don't really intend to belt out that song, do y-"
He started the song over again, and bellowed,
"THINGS ARE SHAPING UP TO BE PRETTY ODD!" (A/N: Same song. I wasn't kidding about the virtual cookie!)
"Ack! ANTHONY! Shut up!" I yelled.
"I NEVER REALLY MISSED HER, WHEN EVERYBODY KISSED HER! AND I'M THE ONLY ONE TO BLAME!"
I plugged my ears.
"I don't even think that's how it goes Anthony!"
I looked over at him and realized he was shutting of his stereo, and that he had fortunately stopped singing.
"God, fine Damien. I'm going downstairs with Jasper and Emmett to play video games. I don't like being verbally abused my brother!" He wailed and walked out of room.
I sighed in relief and picked up my book of Shakespeare. I flipped to 'Romeo ad Juliet' and started to read.
"Oh and by the way, Damien."
"WHAT?! WHO?!" I yelled, jumping from my bed. I grabbed a near by baseball bat and looked around for who had said my name. I spotted Anthony leaning on the side of the door.
"Anthony?! Knock, would you?! I thought I got rid- I mean, I thought you were downstairs!"
"I was. But then I realized your hair was still wet and that Alice would be pretty ticked if you got the carpet wet."
"Gee, thanks. I'll keep that in mind next time I take a shower. Now go away."
"Fine. Ta ta."
"Ta ta? What-" He was already gone, and I could hear a crash, and Anthony bellowing,
"Yo, Emmett, mah man! What game ya playing?!"
"Anthony! You just messed up my high score!"
Anthony responded, "Of seven million? Heck, I can beat that!"
I heard Granddad say, "Children! Quiet!"
I rolled my eyes and put threw my book on my bed and got up to go into the hall to get another towel to dry off my hair with. I made sure to get the floor wet just to peeve Alice. As I came back into my room, I could hear the rustling of leaves and the very faint sound of twigs snapping under a human or animal's weight. Suddenly, my brother's and uncle's bickering down stairs broke the silence. I wanted to concentrate on the sounds outside so
I yelled, "Shut up down there, will you?!"
I went back to listening. I smelled another vampire, but it was surely just my family. I was just finishing up the drying of my hair when I saw someone come in my window…
A/N: SUSPENSEFUL. Okay. Now, we're switching back to Megan's house, and the girls are playing 'Truth or Dare' and it comes to the point when they've run completely out of dares or questions. Then, Megan all of a sudden has a big idea.
But, this is taking place while Damien says, "Anthony! Hurry up! I HAVE TO TAKE A SHOWER TOO! I NEED TO SLEEP SOMETIME, YOU KNOW!"
Then it goes on from there. If anything is confusing, please tell me.
On with the story!
Raelain POV
"I can't think of any other questions or dares or anything, really." Janna complained.
No surprise there… I heard Julieta think, annoyed.
"I know. Why don't we do something else?" Erin asked.
"Yeah, lets." Starr said.
I looked at Julieta. Megan's voice rang out in my head.
Ugh. I was so hoping to come up with something good for Raelain. Like a horribly embarrassing dare or something…Oh my god! I have the perfect thing!
I tried to contain my horror as I 'heard' what her dare was. Julieta looked or probably was feeling just as shocked as I was.
Rae, Rae! Don't choose dare!
I know! I know! Never in a million y- Ooooh…wait…what if I chose dare, completely surprising her? And then she'd get all jealous! It'd be perfect!
Maybe she's doing this just to see if you really like Damien.
Well, of course I really like that idiot! I mean, he's so funny yet so serious, so stupid yet really smart, and he's gorgeous. And he's really sweet…
But does she know that you think all of that? Probably not.
Oh, heck. I don't care if she knows. I think he's really nice, but…I don't know if he feels the same way and everything…
Rae…snap out of it. Megan's about to ask you the question. I can't believe I'm telling you this, but…choose dare.
"Hey, Raelain. Truth…..or dare?" Megan's mischievous voice broke me out of my thoughts.
"I'm going to have to go with dare."
Perfect. I've got little miss wonderful right where I want her.
"Oh? Okay, then. I dare you…"
UH-HUH! End-O-Chapter! D Yay!
….Kidding. Just kidding. Heh heh…
"I dare you, Raelain, to go Damien Cullen's house-"
Starr and Erin gasped, "Megan!"
Janna looked up from her nails, "What'd I miss?"
"Oh, girls! You haven't heard the whole thing yet! I dare you Raelain to go to Damien Cullen's house and go to his room, right?"
I squirmed uncomfortably in my chair. I didn't like where this was going at all. "Right."
"Then once you're in, I want you to choose any article of clothing of his, and bring it back. Got it?"
I hope she chooses his boxers, or something. Not something lame like a T-shirt or jacket.
"Oh, my." Julieta murmured. I could feel a muscle in my eye twitch. What if Damien caught me? What if Anthony caught me? What if one of his parents caught me? It'd be so humiliating.
Starr, Erin and Janna laughed.
"Okay. I'll do it." I said, standing up, grabbing my car keys from my purse.
"Um…Rain? What do you think you're doing?" Erin asked me a voice that said, Duh.
"Taking my car keys so I can drive over there, and complete the dare. What else?"
"You can't exactly drive there. He'd hear your engine and see your car and wonder what the hell you're doing at his house around 1:00 am." Starr said in an obnoxious voice.
"Oh…uh…yeah. Right. I'll just…run." How the hell am I supposed to find his house?
"But how am I supposed to find his house?" Silence. "Okay then! Guess the dare's off! Time to go to bed!" I said, relieved. I was just about to sit back down…
"Wait! I have a picture of his house! I'll give it to you. Also…here's his address…." Megan yanked me up.
She had better not memorize these two things. I don't want her dropping by his house to visit him regularly.
And I thought, Oh and just because you don't want me to do that, I think I will. Although…I would have done it anyways even if you hadn't wanted me too, Megan dear.
And then I thought, how the heck did she get those two things?!
"Uh…Megan, how the heck did you get those two things?" I asked nervously.
"Oh, what? Oh. When Damien and I were partners for a Sex Ed. Project last year, he invited me over to his house to work on it." She smirked. I tried to hide my jealously and disbelief on my face. Megan's smirk grew even bigger, signaling that it hadn't worked.
Megan gave me a picture of this beautiful white house surrounded by forest. And she gave me a slip of paper reading,
76 Vladimir Rd.
Forks, Washington
67173
"Okay Raelain. Go on, now." I realized that Megan lived relatively close to Damien. The closer the better. But then wouldn't that make it easier for her to stalk him?
"I'm going, I'm going. I'll be back soon. And don't worry. I can do it." I smiled confidently. More confidently than I felt. I got up from the room, and as I left the house, I wondered if I should have ignored Julieta and despite the fact that I wanted to chose dare too, go for truth. But then maybe she would have asked something completely and totally embarrassing.
As I ran out the door, and was running in the woods to Damien's house, I wondered how I would get into his room without be detected by his family. Perhaps I could spot his window and maybe there would be something to give away his room, like his voice coming from inside or something like that. I finally got to his house. It was even more beautiful in person. I had heard a rumor about his grandmother being a home designer or something similar.
I heard his voice yell, "Shut up down there, will you?!" and I snickered quietly, hopefully too quietly for him to hear. He probably wasn't in his room, though. I bet he there was a hallway leading to his room, and he was there, and the door to his room was shut. If I was going to get that article of clothing, I was going to have to do it quietly and quickly. I looked up. How would I get in? I decided to just scale the side of the house and climb in through the window I now recognized as his. I started to scale the side of the house quickly, quietly, and lightly. I knew he wouldn't be able to hear. After all, he was in the hallway, right? Of course. (A/N: WRONG.) And even if he wasn't, which I was sure he wasn't, he wouldn't be able to hear so he would never even know I had been in his room. I tried to comfort my self with these thoughts. Finally, I got to the window sill, and I hauled my self into his room…only to spot…Damien himself looking at me in shock.
I started to slip from the window, because I was in shock my self. He had just caught me breaking into his house! I was never going to live this down! He noticed I was about to fall and because I was a vampire, I wouldn't get hurt. And because of that, I'd have some explaining to do. He realized this, and he went to pull me back up, right into his room.
"Raelain?! What the hell are you doing in my room at 1:30 am in the morning?!" He half shrieked half whispered and gave a final tug, pulling me through his window which I had been slightly stuck in. I fell onto his dark gold carpet.
"Ooof. I….uh…okay, this is a bad idea! This was a bad idea! I never should have accepted that dare! This is really bad…really bad. Bad, bad, bad, bad. I'll just be going, because this was a really bad idea and I shouldn't have accepted this dare. Oh, god. I'm so stupid-"
"Wait, what dare?! What are doing in my room?! Do you care to explain?" He asked, completely confused. He started to pace, but then stood still and looked at me. I felt a bit strange the way he looked at me so intently.
"Um…yeah. Megan and Starr and Erin and J-"
"You mean the Fatal Four?" He asked, crossing his arms over his chest. His chest. I tried to snap out of it, but however I still felt a little lust for him…
"Yeah. The Fatal Four," I said, as we both grinned at the same time. "They invited Julieta and me over Megan's house for a sleepover. To 'welcome us to the school' as Megan put it. I knew that she and her friends just invited us so they could find some good ways to humiliate us. And the we started playing 'Truth or Dare' and they dared me to go to your house, as you can see, and get a article of your clothing and bring it back for some sick unknown purposes." I inhaled sharply. Old habits die hard.
He grinned. "Okay then…why don't I just give you a T-shirt or something…?" He grinned wickedly, and started to rummage in his dresser.
"Wait, Damien! Megan said she wanted boxers!" I blurted out before thinking. I clamped my mouth shut once I realized what I had just said. I would bet anyone that my eyes were wider than saucer plates right now.
"What?!" He asked incredulously. He looked at me startled.
Damien POV
What did she just say?! Boxers?! I was about to comment, and then I realized just how much humiliation was coming off of her. I decided to let it go. What would really be a disaster was if Anthony came in…
Raelain POV
"Oh, uh, um…never mind. Forget I said anything." I exhaled loudly, and turned to look out the window which I had come through.
All of sudden, Anthony came in,
"Hey, Damien. Mom wan-…Raelain? What the heck are you doing in here?" He said, turning his attention to me. Damien tensed, but kept looking for something to give me.
Damien
No, no, no. Anthony. This couldn't be happening. I decided to keep on looking. Surely all he needed was to tell me something…I'd find out from him later, and when neither of us responded, he'd just go…right?
Raelain POV
I just stared at Anthony in mute horror. For Damien to know about this was one thing. He seemed like the kind of boy to not torture girls. And even if he caught a girl in his room, out to steal a T-shirt of his for 4 lovesick stalkers, it seemed like he'd keep cool and just hand over the T-shirt. Anthony Cullen, however, was a different matter. I heard running, and suddenly a huge guy came in. All muscle. He had curly black hair and dimples. He was smiling, and Anthony looked up at him, and the guy looked down at Anthony, and they were smiling evilly.
"Hey, Damien." The huge guy said. (A/N: EMMETT!)
Damien whipped around to look at the guy, and he muttered, "Oh, crap…Emmett."
Emmett laughed a huge, booming laugh and punched Damien on the shoulder, hard, sending his sprawling to the floor. I saw him get up in the corner of my eye, scowling.
Damien POV
I was silently screaming in my head, Emmett?! Oh my god, NO! No, no, NO! This can't be happening! Oh good Lord, what have I done to deserve this?! And then I felt Emmett punch me on the shoulder hard, send me crashing into the floor.
Hello, floor. We meet again. I thought. This wasn't the first time today Emmett had felt the need to show some "Uncle-Nephew" love by punching me.
Raelain POV
Emmett, the huge muscled guy turned to look at me and said, "Hey there. My name is Emmett, and I take it you're Damien's girlfriend. Am I right?" Anthony faked tears, and wiped under his eyes while laughing hysterically.
"I'm Raelain…" I said hesitantly, "And Damien and I are just…friends."
Emmett laughed again. "Just friends?!"
"I'll be downstairs if you need me…you ladies have fun!" He called over his shoulder as he walked out and went back downstairs. I heard thumping and I turned saw Damien thumping his head on the wall, effectively making dents.
Emmett held out his hand to me and I backed away. He withdrew his hand, and grinned.
I murmured, "Maybe I should just go and tell Megan you guys weren't home…"
At that, Damien stopped his head banging. He looked livid and horrified at the same time. He pointed at Emmett and said in a scarily calm voice,
And said, "Emmett…" He pointed to the door, "Get out. I need to…talk to Raelain."
Emmett laughed a booming laugh again, and said, "Well, as long as you two are just talking!" He cackled. He left the room still laughing, and Damien groaned.
"I'm never going to live that down…" He moaned.
I looked at him in disbelief. "You?! What about me?! Your uncle and your idiot of a brother just discovered me in your room!" I whispered in alarm.
Damien shook his head, and said, "I think if you knew Emmett a little bit better, you'd feel sorrier for me than for yourself." He bit his lip. "Here." He thrust the shirt at me, and
I looked at it. It said, Damien Sean Cullen. I grinned. Perfect evidence that I gotten a shirt from Damien Cullen and not just bought one. Before I even thought about what I was doing, I ran over and hugged him. I felt a burst of electricity as I touched his skin and I realized that we fit perfectly, like two puzzle pieces. And I wondered if he felt that too.
"Thank you, thank you, Damien!" I said, squeezing him. I decided to put those feelings aside for now.
"Oh…sure, Raelain…anytime." He awkwardly patted my back a couple times, and I then realized I was hugging Damien. I shot back and didn't look at him straight in the eyes.
"Er…sorry…I'll just be…going."
"It's…it's fine. You had better get back…I'm sure Julieta is worried about you." I started towards the window. Just as I was swinging my leg out, I grinned and asked,
"And the Fatal Four?"
"Probably imagining the worst and hoping it's true." He snickered.
"You're probably right." I sighed, and made another move to get my self out the window with the T-shirt.
He looked at me intently for a few moments and then shook his head.
"See you on Monday, Raelain."
I grinned, "See you Monday, Dae." The last thing I saw was his breath-taking smile before I finally jumped out, and landed on all fours, the shirt stuffed into my jeans pocket. He closed the window after me, signaling he didn't want any other midnight or morning visitors.
I was just about to run back to Megan's house when I heard the window open and Damien shout,
"By the way Raelain, feel free to keep the shirt!" I heard his laughter after that, and I rolled my eyes, knowing he could see it.
"Just go to bed, Damien!" I yelled back.
I heard quiet laughter, and I hugged his shirt close to my chest as I inhaled his scent; before taking off through the green forest.
Oh….my….God. Was that fun to write or what!? XDDDDDDD I can't even describe how much fun that was! Oh, wow. That wasn't such a great cliffy. I really have to work on my cliffies. Grrrrrrrr.
What did you people think of it?! I hope you liked it. When I wrote the idea down on paper during school a couple months ago, I didn't intend for Emmett to be in it. I also didn't intend for Anthony to appear. But then I decided to throw them in, and oh boy was that hilarious! –Sigh- And, how did you like the ending?
Okay. I'm going to need a lot of reviews for this chapter. It will motivate me to write big time, and also because they give me a warm, fuzzy feeling. The flames that I get…yes, well. I don't enjoy those. So, I hope I don't get flames, but I do get reviews! New chapter soon, I hope! And if I can't catch Julia before she leaves for the summer then the next chapter will be at the end of the summer. Same for my other fan fiction. So, my dear fans, review like the wind!
