A/n Soz Jadey!!! Ur not that much of a selfish b!tch. jks lol. Soz!!! And Tier, don't worry, I know your not that mature. You'd probably like house bowling.
Please Review!! I don't care if it's just some emoticon or two words! Please Review!!
They all just looked at me until Jade looked down. She was fighting with herself to find the words.
"Honey, we have to stay here for at least a month, probably longer." I glared at a speck of dirt on the floor.
"Why?" I asked through my teeth. Why can't we go find him now?! I was getting really annoyed.
"Because we need to finish the food experiment, practice hunting animals and I would like to spend sometime with my friends." She told me calmly, even though she was slightly irritated. I snapped. That bar of self-control and calmness broke.
"Well that's what you want. Does anyone actually care what I want?!" I shouted. "I've been waiting 6 years to find my brother!!"
"Meg." She warned. Too late. I was good at temper tantrums and she hated them.
"No! Don't Meg me!" I was standing now. I was in full scene mode. "It's always about you! You turned me into a vampire! You made me run all around America. You made me run around South America too! You brought me here because you wanted them to do test on me! You let them cut me because it would help you!!" I shouted the last part even louder. I stomped out of the room, then out the front door, slamming it too. It was sunny today, so they couldn't follow me. Sometimes my talent was ok.
I ran at human pace until I found a cute little diner. I opened the door and went inside. The waiter gasped when she saw me. To her I was a 14-year-old girl with tears streaming down her face that was sad and probably lonely. She came over to me and guided me to a booth at the back of the café. She gave me a box of tissues and ordered me some chocolate ice cream. She sat next to me, patting my back. She was a complete stranger. I didn't even know her name, but she held me as I cried. I was too upset to even think about what would happen if I snapped and let my vampire side take over. Another customer entered the diner.
"Will you be ok?" She asked in a kind voice. I nodded, so she went to serve the other customers. My ice cream arrived. I played with it for a minute before I ate some. It was really yummy, but I didn't feel like eating. I crossed my arms on the table and buried my head in them. I must have fallen asleep because I could see my brother. I didn't know if I could sleep, but I think that's what was going on.
We were playing on a swing in a park somewhere I never been. He was pushing me and we were both laughing as I yelled higher. He gave me a big push and I heard him grunt with the effort. I swung I into the air; it was like I was flying. I closed my eyes as the sun hit them. A small smile spread over my lips. It was like time slowed down to give me a moment's more time of bliss. When I came back down I was alone; there was no one else at the park.
"Emmy!" I yelled again and again. It was like the day he left. Fresh tears streamed down my face.
"Emmy!" I yelled again before I woke up with a start. I looked around the diner. There were more people in it now and it was dark outside. I stood up, wiping my tear-drenched face. I went over to the counter, taking out my purse as I did. The waiter shook her head.
"That's on the house sweetie." She told me in that same kind voice as before. "You come back sometime." She said with a smile. I smiled back. But it wasn't that huge boisterous grin my brother and I shared. It was just a small sad smile from a small sad vampire.
"Thanks." I mumbled, turning around and going outside. I had nowhere to go. So I ran. I ran for hours. But I was running at human speed, so I didn't go far. I went up to the mountains and found a peak that overlooked the ocean. I sat down, thinking about my life… or existence. I sat there for ages. I watched the sun come up. It was beautiful- pink and orange with cute, fluffy, white clouds. Then I watched as the world woke up. People bustling around their homes; getting ready for the day. People leaving for work and children running around outside before breakfast. It was beautiful. All the families. I stared longingly at two siblings who sat in front of the television, laughing occasionally at a cartoon.
I was standing there looking at the rest of the world thinking 'What happened?' 'How did we get here?' 'Why am I alone?'
I reluctantly turned my gaze to the large cream house owned by Tier and Barbara. I could see two figures pacing and one sitting down. I puckered my lips as I decided what I should do next. I probably should go back. But I was right about what I said last night! It was always about everyone else. Being stuck as a 14 year old had its disadvantages.
"Great! I get to be a misunderstood teenager for all of eternity." I mumbled sarcastically. I sighed in frustration. I picked up nearest thing I could find. It happened to be a large rock. I hurled it through the air and it tumbled down the side of the mountain, leaving a trail of destruction.
If that hits someone's house I'm gonna be in trou-ble. Crap. I watched as it came to a stop at the bottom of the mountain. I punched my fist in the air. Phew.
Maybe I could turn this into a sport… house bowling…
No! That's idea terrible idea Meg! How could you think that!?
Go away crappy! I was joking! I paused waiting for my conscience's reply.
Uh… This is Tier. I paused thinking that through. There were so many things I wanted to say, to ask, to scream but for some reason I asked
How far does your talently thing stretch? I heard her laugh mentally.
If I know the person well enough or are attuned to their mind there is no limit, I could do it half way around the world.
So, where are you?
At the house looking out the window.
I flattened myself against the top of the mountain. I peaked out over the edge.
I can read your thoughts. I know what your doing.
So she knew that I could see her and she knew where I was. She also knew how stupid I felt at that moment.
Are you doing one of those 'Live mental conversations' so everyone knows what's going on? I asked bitterly.
No, they don't even know I'm talking to you. She answered, just as cold. She probably picked up on an errant thought about 'they probably knew because you couldn't control your facial expressions for shit.' But hey, if she's reading my mind she can have that as well.
Aren't you just a pocket full of sunshine?
Piss off.
I'm not anywhere near you.
You know what I mean!
Come home then. She had shocked me. Home. She referred it as home. Our home. Our mutual home. And she just read my mind. Crap.
Please. She begged. Ignoring my previous thoughts.
Fine. I grumbled. I could practically hear her smiling in my brain. I swiftly made my way back to …my home?
I walked up the steps at human speed, but before I could knock, the door was thrown open and I was encased in Jade's arms.
"I'm sorry." She murmured. I didn't return it. I wasn't sorry. I was right.
"I'm sorry for leaving and not telling you where I was gong." I told her. She pulled back and led me inside. Obviously ignoring me.
Oh, shut up. Let her be happy you're back. Tier told me before giving me a hug. Barbara stood awkwardly in the corner of the room. I was kinda scared of her after what happened in the Batcave. My poor arm. Tier stifled a laugh as she read my mind.
"I'm sorry… about your arm..." Barbs mumbled. I gave her a smile. She smiled back. Easy. I turned to Jade.
"Emmett." I said sternly. One word. My Request. My Demand. My Brother. My Family. My Hope.
"5 years."
"What!!!" I yelled. "None!"
"4."
"0!"
"I'm not leaving for a minimum of 3 years." She told me firmly. Last night she had said a month. Damn.
"Well I'll go on my own!" I huffed. Jade laughed, but it wasn't a humorous laugh.
"Meg. You're 14."
"No, I'm actually 21!"
"Yeah, try telling that to the police." I glared at her. She had a point. A very good point.
"3." She offered again.
"Fine." I grumbled as I shook her hand.
"3 years." I could handle that… I think.
