White Lies Chapter 7, a twilight fanfic

UPDATED (9/16/10): PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTINUING!

So... This story is on Hiatus as of today. I am really sorry this story didn't go long before going on Hiatus. Reasons... do you wanna know? I mean they're really just excuses. So long story short, I am taking way too many classes this year. I mean I don't even have a lunch time. Too many honours and APs and... I really don't have extra time to work on this. If I do get some time (which I probably won't) I might continue this. If I don't, I'm sure you'll know.

Thanks to all of you who stuck with this story, even if it was only 7 chapters... I mean I've got until chapter 25 written up. I checked, like yesterday. So yeah... Sorry :(

Chapter 7

Getting into their cars, Edward followed Salena to a nearby café. She entered and got the two of them a table against a wall.

"What would you like? It's on me," she asked.

"We don't eat." Edward whispered to her.

"What would you like?" she repeated her question, ignoring him. "Get something so we look human you idiot." She whispered to him.

"Oh… yeah" Edward coughed.

The waiter waited as Edward asked for a latte and Salena asked for a cappuccino. The waiter went away and Salena took out a BlackBerry from her bag. Edward also saw her take out a flask. She unscrewed the cap hid the flask underneath the TABLE. The water then came and set their orders down on the table.

"What's the flask for?" Edward asked

"You'll see." She answered simply.

An awkward silence ensued as they sat there, Salena on her BlackBerry and Edward just staring at the steaming cup of coffee in front of him.

"So how have you been this whole time?" she asked a few minutes later, not looking away from the small device's screen.

"I've been well." Edward answered.

"Are you a nomad?"

"No. I live in a coven."

"Oh cool. I live alone in LA." she said, smiling and setting down the Blackberry.

"Alone?" he asked again. He saw her look around the room for a second then, too fast for the human eye to see, she quickly poured his coffee and hers into the flask. She quickly screwed the cap and but the flask in her bag. All done in less than 1.7 seconds. So that's what the flask was for… She didn't bother explaining it to him as she did it. It was quite obvious.

"Yep. I have a medical practice I run in LA in my house. It does a lot of things. My pseudonym is Hillary Madison, the woman you just saw before." She started explaining. "But how did you…?" he trailed off, not sure how to explain what had happened before.

Salena sighed. "My power I received when I was 'born' was the stealth of power. I steal powers instead of having just one in the first place. All the powers I have are stolen from living and dead vampires. Mind-reading, change of appearance, weather manipulation, shield, they're all stolen powers. I have a lot more, of course. You have mind-reading." Salena said plainly.

"Wow. That's… amazing." Edward said in awe. He was very surprised at his sister's abilities.

"Thanks."

"And I'm sorry about before. I mean… I didn't want you to go to the… mental asylum," he started. He saw her tense up at the words and breathe in sharply. She looked away at her bag which was next to her. She stopped breathing for a few seconds but she started again and looked at him, "but the situation then… I'm just so sorry Salena. I'm really sorry. Truly, from the bottom of my heart."

"Yeah I know." She said after a few moments.

"What?... uh… How?" Edward asked puzzled, once again.

She smiled that mischievous smile he was so familiar with. "I'm an empath too."

Against her will, Salena followed Edward to his house and parked outside about 30 feet away from the actual building.

"Do I really have to go inside?" she asked while she sat in the car, knowing Edward could hear through the toughened glass.

"Yes you do, now come on." he answered.

"But I hate, no despise, introductions. You'd know better than anyone."

Edward stared at Salena, or the tinted windows of her car, blankly.

"Remember when you were ten and you brought Mary-Sue home and-"

"Point taken!" he stopped her abruptly not wanting to go back to that moment, no doubt. Salena chuckled softly. "But still meet my family, please?" he begged.

"Oh. My. God. Edward Anthony Masen is begging! You really want me to meet them,don't you?"

"Yes, I do."

"Gosh… What will you do for me?" Salena asked.

Salena saw him hesitate for a moment and then answered, "I'll give you a hug. Now get out."

"No!" Salena protested as Edward pulled her out and dragged her to the house.

"Ow! Get of me! It hurt! Get the fuck off Edward. Edward, Get o-" Salena stopped when she noticed 6 pairs of golden amber eyes staring at her. She hadn't noticed that they were already inside the house.

"Oh sorry." Salena straightened herself out and smiled.

Everyone was silent and just stared at Salena. She wanted to say something but knew that whatever she said would just make the situation more awkward. Salena stood there, not breathing, and observed everyone, taking in their image, special features and so on. Finally Edward broke the silence.

"Sorry I'm a little late. I… I ran into…" Edward spluttered having trouble forming a sentence.

"Who's she?" Rosalie said in a tone that annoyed Salena.

"I'm Salena," Salena said in a bold, confident tone. "Addison Salena Masen, Miss Rosalie Lillian Hale"

"What?" Rosalie started. "How do you know my name? My full name? Who are you bitch? What's-"

"Rosalie." Carlisle said, stopping her. Rosalie stopped talking at once and looked away.

Esme looked at Edward. "Edward. Can you introduce Miss Addison to us properly?"

"It's Salena. I prefer to be called by my middle name." Salena smiled.

"Um… Well. Salena is my sister. I met her again a few weeks ago when I…" Edward stopped

"I recognize her scent. It's quite overwhelming." Jasper said, scrunching his nose.

"Sorry." Salena said sheepishly.

"Wait, Edward, you have a sister?" A tall guy asked. His name was Emmett, Salena read from his mind.

"Yes I do." Edward answered.

"I'm his younger sister. 7 years younger." She said trying to fill the silence.

"Welcome to our home." Said Esme.

"Thank you. It's a lovely house you live in." Salena told her.

"Welcome indeed Salena." Carlisle, the head of coven said.

"Thank you but I'd like to ask a question. Um… Is there a human in the house? Because…" She coughed. "My… uh… throat hurts?" Salena coughed again not knowing how to phrase it.

"That's probably-" The small pixie like one, Alice, started but was interrupted.

"Edward?" Salena heard a voice and she stiffened. "Edward? Is he back?" A voice very familiar to Salena called.

"Bella?" Edward called out.

"Bella…" Salena whispered to herself. "Bella?" she looked at him "Bella?" Salena half-screamed and half-gasped.

Just then Bella came down the stairs and Salena saw her. The woman who had messed up her life, who had entered her life and left it in ruins, the woman who had brought the curse on Salena and her family was standing right there.

"You!" Salena looked at her "You! Why are you here?" she screamed.

She looked confused "Excuse me? Who are you?" Oh, playing innocent, are we?

"Don't play innocent with me Annabelle!" and Salena ran at her, full speed, the hatred that had been building up for years spilling out all in a rush.

So... how'd I do? Oh I just LOVE~ cliffhangers :).

Sorry for the late update again.

See ya'll later! (hopefully)
