I walked into the living room and sat down with Embry. He took my hand, holding it in both of his warm ones.
"You okay baby?" baby.
"Yah, I'm fine, why?" I squeaked.
"You just look a little pale and nervous" He stroked my cheek.
"n-nervous w-why would I-I b-be n-nervous?" I stuttered.
"That's what I'm wondering, is there something on your mind?" You have no idea buddy. "You can tell me anything." I don't know about that.
"No everything is okay" I whispered. He hesitated but let it go. We continued to watch a whatever was on TV I wasn't really paying attention. Then the phone rang.
"Yah?" Embry said, I rolled my eyes. "mhmm… yah course… when?… 5 to 10... Okay got it… later." Embry hung up.
"who was that?" I asked poking his arm.
"Oh! Emily, were babysitting Jackson" He said. I nodded. Got to get my practice in.
About five minuets later Emily knocked on the door and dropped Jackson off apologizing on her way out even through our protest. After we closed the door we both turned and looked at the little four year old boy who was just staring at us with his little dimpled face. Then he smiled. But this was no ordinary smile. This was the smile of and evil genius. Embry and I looked at each other. Then the boy took off down the hall. My eyes widened.
"Hey! Jackson!" I yelled running after him. When I found him he already had Embry's mom's room covered in Toilet Paper. I was gaping at him. "What in the world" I breathed. Embry bumped into me.
"Whoa" he said. I just nodded.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The rest of the night was filled with high pitched squeals and yelling. Also tripping falling cleaning and dogging. And the boy was not doing any of those. By the time Emily got back we were exhausted and thankful that she was on time. We handed her Jackson and they left. I sighed falling onto the couch and Embry fell with me wrapping his arms around me.
"Rella?" He rested his head on my stomach.
"yah?"
"We are never having kids" He mumbled into my stomach. Oh god! No! He did not just say that while his head was on our baby!
"huh" I simply replied.
That night as soon as Embry was sleeping I gently got out of bed and replaced myself with a pillow in his arms. I herd Embry groan and roll over. I froze and turned around to face him. Then he kissed the pillow and fell back asleep. I held back a fit of giggles. But then I remembered what I was supposed to be doing. I grabbed a duffle bag from his closet and stuffed some clothes in it. I didn't bother to leave a note. He didn't need to know that he would be a father. I didn't want to ruin his life. I walked down the hall and as I approached the door no matter how hard I told myself not to cry, a single tear rolled down my cheek. I felt the warm salty watch touch my lips. I quickly got out of the house before I started bawling.
I walked down the cold sidewalk bare footed. In PJ's.
It will be okay.
I continued crying.
No more tears.
I let out a loud sob.
I can do this.
I herd a love song playing down on the beach and saw they were having a senior party. All the happily couples still married at 60 danced gazing into each others eyes.
So sick of love songs.
I looked away wiping the tears.
So tired of tears.
I saw Claire and Quil through the front room window as the were laughing and smiling at each other.
Don't make me think about his smile.
I saw a small child run past me a young woman running after his both giggling.
Or having my first child.
I shook my head, my hair wiping in my face. I sighed looking down.
This doesn't make since.
I felt a pain. My heart was being torn.
I'm the one who walked out the door.
I couldn't take this pain. It hurt to much.
No more walking round with my head down.
I put my head up. I listened to the love song.
So sad and slow.
I watched the people around me. Enjoying the night.
Stupid love song.
I was getting frustrated.
So why can't I turn off the radio?
I didn't want to.
I was going to always remember Embry. Everything would remind me of him. And I wanted it that way. Our baby would know everything I could tell them about him. Maybe one day they would meet him. If he ever forgave me. I put a gentle and on my stomach. I smiled rubbing slightly. I don't know how I'm going to do it but me and this baby are going to have a happy life. I will do anything in my power to give him/her a long happy life.
I walked to the bus stop and sat on the cold hard bench. I closed my eyes and rolled my head back letting the breeze hit me. Tears still fell. But I didn't care. I herd the bus and stood grabbing the bag. The bus stopped in front of me and I stepped on picking the first seat. I wiped the tears and waited for the perfect stop to get off at. I didn't know where I was going, But I eventually got off about two and a half hours later.
I got off and walked on the pavement. I didn't know where I was and it didn't look safe.
Why did I pick here?
I sighed and just continued to walk. I was walking in an ally when I herd a snap. I froze. I felt a cold hand on my neck. I felt a cold nose run down my neck sniffing slightly. I shivered. I felt the strangers hands run down my arms bring a trail of goose bumps. My knees buckled. I felt his cool breath blowing on my cheek. One word went through my mind.
Vampire.
