The book is real - Good bye for now
It was 5:00 as we walked out of the motel. Bethany, Tyler, Calvis, and Brittany walked by on the other side of the street. My stomach imminently twisted. Bethany and Tyler looked pretty upset about something, well I mean they don't look as happy as they normally do.
"Edward." I whisper. I was fighting tears back. The others noticed my sudden stop and staring. Brittany finally noticed us; they must not have noticed where we came from. She smiled and waved.
"What is it?" He asked. The other three across the street looked at us. They waved too. They must not recognize me. Alice, Carlisle, Emmett, and I waved back. What's Tyler the older boy, and Bethany, the older girl upset about? I couldn't say it out loud. Tears would come.
"They found out last night about your death. There not taking it so well." Edward said.
"I don't want to know how anyone else is feeling or taking my death." The kids finally looked away and continued with there conversation. Tears finally broke free and I couldn't fight them back any longer. I realized that there were now two black cars. Alice, Emmett, and Demeatry took one car. I didn't even care that Demeatry was leaving my sight. Edward sat in front with Carlisle. I sat between Chris and Jasper. The only reason this was arranged, because they wanted to calm me down.
"Maybe seeing your friends and family for the last time would help." Carlisle suggested.
"No, I hate good-byes. They're too painful. That's my problem." I knew they were trying to get me to calm down, but they were literally making me cry more. Couldn't they just leave me alone?
Chris was stroking my arm, with one around my waist, holding me close to him. Jasper had one hand on my shoulder trying to calm me down, without words. I guess that would have worked if the others wouldn't stop trying to sooth me with words.
Jasper finally spoke, "You didn't have to leave them. You still don't." That sparked something.
"But they all think I'm dead. All that popularity when I come back will be too much. Even if I did, what about you guys? I already promised I wouldn't leave you guys in tell I meat Bella."
"Whose Bella?" They all asked. I had gone into a big explanation, about how they were going to tell my parents. They also had suggested I go on as if I'm not dead. I told them I wouldn't leave them with out meeting Bella. The subject changed too quickly.
"You know he's right Delilah." Carlisle said. "We didn't tell them that you were dead, that you were going to die. Make it more real as possible."
"What day is it?" I asked.
"January 17th." Edward said. That was the 1st time he had spoken sense we got in the car.
My eyes widened. That means tomorrow… Careful. Edward is listening.
My mind switched to the meeting of Bella.
"I want to go back to Forks now. School is tomorrow. Worry about everything else later." My sadness had turned to anxious.
"What happened to…?" Chris was cut off.
"She's right, lets deal with it later." Edward said.
"Plus Ronni's at the house. We've got to figure out what to do with her."
"We should also figure out who else might come into their heritance from the line of the twins." Carlisle said.
"Wednesday. Not sooner."
No one spoke. I felt Jasper calming me down, to the point where I was calm. My tear stained face became noticeable. I fell asleep on Chris's shoulder. I woke up at 7:00 our time. I was in Chris and my bedroom. I felt Chris next to me. I looked at the black quilt. We weren't on Chris's couch. I turned to face Chris.
"You slept extremely long."
"Only an hour."
"Your right you could have slept longer." I looked outside. The sun didn't even look like it was going to set.
"We are in our room right?"
"Yes."
"But were not on the couch."
"No. Were on your bed."
"My bed?" Sense when did I get a bed?
He chuckled at my reaction. "I asked Emmett and Rose to go pick it out. They were thrilled. Rose has had enough of Ronni and Emmett wasn't ready to take a break."
"So is there a particular reason why you got me a bed?"
"Esme and I didn't agree of you sleeping on the couch all the time. Sense you can sleep now."
"How much was it?"
Chris didn't answer.
"Chris." I warned.
"It was about 300 dollars."
"$300?!" I yelled.
"Hey I didn't pick it out, remember." I got off the bed. Noting now huge it was. It took up most of the room. I stomped out of the room, not caring or wondering how I got in my pajamas. Ah yes my pajamas. All I was wearing was a long t-shirt and underwear.
"Rosalie, Emmett!" I yelled. I found them in the living room with Alice and Jasper. I would have wondered where Ronni was, but I didn't.
"Yes, Delilah?" Emmett asked.
"You bought me a $300 bed?" I almost yelled.
"Your welcome." Rose said.
"How could you get such an expensive bed?"
"Easy. We saw a black quilt, white sheets, a blue mattress, and a red frame and got it." Emmett said, liking this.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because you like the mix of red and black. Black, white, and blue are your favorite colors." Rose said.
"No, why so expensive?"
"We didn't care about the price. Just how perfect it was." I groaned. I felt Jasper calming down already.
"Delilah! Your awake." Ronni said.
"Yeah." I said.
"You going to come with us?" Ronni asked. I just noticed Chris next to me.
"Go with you where?" I asked.
"To play baseball." Alice said. "There's a thunderstorm coming." I just realized that they were all dressed for it. Also that Ronni wasn't the only here. So were Carlisle, Demeatry, Esme, and Edward.
"Are you kidding? I would love to come." I said already upstairs getting dressed.
On the way there I was with Chris, Edward, and Demeatry.
"So have you guys decided what's going on with Ronni?"
"Well we told her everything that happened on our trip. She is scared that when her excitement wears off that she is going to be just as upset as you are about leaving her family. Of course unlike you, she can just go back. They think she was kidnapped, not dead." Edward explained.
"That makes sense. So has she decided what she's doing?"
"Nope, too excited still."
I repressed a chuckle. Ronni and I had way too much in common.
Once at the open field. Memories shot back, I had to keep them under control, so Edward wouldn't see something he shouldn't. Though it was hard to separate the things from the movie and the book.
"Whose doing what?" Emmett asked. Weird question.
"Well I'll be referee." Esme said.
"You don't have too." I said.
"Why don't you want to play?" Esme asked.
"No."
"Why not?" Chris asked.
"I
don't like playing sports."
"Come on, please." Chris
begged. I was surprised. Why did he want me to play?
"Alright." I said. Guilt suddenly washed over Chris. He had just got me to do something I didn't want too. "I'll be the one to stay on the hitting team."
"Why?" Ronni asked. "Why don't you just stay with your team?"
"Cause I don't want an uneven #."
"We always have an uneven #." Carlisle said.
"Fine." I said. This was getting ridicules.
"Well I'll be hitting too then." Chris said.
"Edward and Demeatry too." I said fast.
"Sure." They said.
"I'll be out field." Jasper said.
"Me too." Ronni said.
"Yeah I think I should hit." Carlisle said.
"Emmett and Rosalie are in the field then." Edward said.
We split up. I was forced to hit 1st. Why me? I asked myself, not asking the others, too stubborn.
Esme's POV
Alice waited, than threw the ball. Delilah hit it; it went high over the tree branches. Emmett and Jasper went looking for it. Delilah was at home before they came back, throwing the ball back to Alice. Must not have caught it. Edward was up next. He bunted the ball, but was on 2nd base before Ronni got it. Not wanting to test Ronni's ability, Edward stayed. Alice had the ball again. Carlisle was up. He got two strikes before he hit up in the air and Rosalie caught it.
"Out." I yelled.
Demeatry was next. He hit it and it went to the trees. Emmett almost had it, but it slipped through his figures. Demeatry was on 1st and Edward was home. Emmett looks like his getting pissed.
Chris was up. He hit the ball the second time. It went sliding into the ground. Alice got it, and threw it to Jasper and getting Chris out.
"Out." I said.
Delilah was up.
When they got 3 outs, they switched. Demeatry and Delilah proved themselves worthy of being on the team. They got 3 outs faster. 2nd time was a bit more slower, before both teams got 3 outs.
Narrator's POV
It was a tie, when they had to leave. Emmett, Rosalie, Ronni, Edward, and Chris were still debating who had won, as the others walked back to the house. Alice and Esme took the cars home.
"Look it was a tie." Delilah said. Proving that she doesn't like yelling. "Get over it."
"It was not a tie." Emmett said. "We got at least 40."
"No you didn't. You at least had 35." Edward said.
"That's not right. Emmett's right we had more than that." Ronni said.
"NO!" Delilah yelled having enough. "We both had 36. Drop it."
"Delilah, you can't possible think…" Rosalie was cut off.
"Who the heck cares? It was a tie. Drop it before I force it."
"I'm not afraid of you." Emmett said.
"God!" Delilah yelled quickening her speed.
"Delilah Emmett's right. We have the right to our own opinion." Ronni said.
"It's just a game. You guys have been yelling at each other for a half an hour. Who cares who won?"
"We do." Most of them said.
Delilah rolled her eyes.
"Alright, that's enough." Carlisle said. "Delilah's right. It's just a game. We need to end it."
No one objected.
Delilah's POV
Thank god. That was so annoying. Something clicked in my head. I was remembering my visit with Billy and when Jay hurt Chris.
"Carlisle?" I asked, wide eyed.
I could feel everyone's eyes on me.
"Yes, Delilah."
"Did I really turn into a wolf earlier today?" This hadn't come to mind. So worried about other things.
"Yeah."
"That must mean I can turn into one when ever I want." I concentrated. It wasn't working. "Damn it."
"We still have the idea of the tutor." Jasper said.
"Yeah if Sam and Billy are willing to help with you two."
"Yeah I doubt that would happen." Ronni said.
"Well we've got to try." Emmett said.
"Yeah we just can't give up. It's not like you can't." Edward said. "We've seen you do it."
"Alright
I'll try."
"Good luck." Ronni said, sarcastically.
"Thank you Ronni." I knew she hated that.
"Ugh." She said.
I chuckled.
We reached the house. "Ronni doesn't Greenboy live somewhere close to here?" I asked.
"Greenboy?"
"Yeah. Remember he moved to be closer to Mutt. Well were pretty darn close to Mutt."
"Yeah that's right."
I didn't say anything else on the subject.
"I know, before I do anything, I want to go see Greenboy." Ronni said.
"Really?" I asked.
"Yeah, I'll even leave tonight. I don't sleep anyways."
"You're leaving?" Rose's voice had some hope in it.
"Only for a little bit." Ronni said. "Yep I'm going to leave right now."
"Isn't that a little too soon?" Chris asked.
"The sooner I leave the sooner I get back."
"Good point." Edward said walking in the house, with Emmett, Rosalie Jasper, and Chris. They said bye.
"Don't forget to say good-bye to Alice and Esme." Carlisle walking in the house as well. He than said bye.
"I won't." Ronni turned to me.
"You know you have it way too easy." I said.
"I know. I feel so bad for you. Well not just you. Your family. Your friends. They must be so sad."
"From seeing Tyler and Bethany, I don't doubt that."
"Carlisle's right though, you've got to find out whose going to come into their inheritance."
"Yeah, that's going to be easy." I said sarcastically. "For one I don't know if I got it from my mom or dad. If I got it from dad." I shudder.
"There's way too many relatives on his side of the family who would have it."
"You're telling me."
"Delilah I just realized something."
"What?"
"Burgendee's going to be one." My eyes widened.
"God your right. Wait I'm pretty sure they can only be werewolf or vampire."
"Yeah being mixed will have too many confusions."
"So let's hope she's a werewolf."
"Yes, let's."
"Also I think she's still going to be human, either way."
"Yeah she can't be full. I mean you weren't and Demeatry isn't." We had just realized that Demeatry was standing right next to me. Ronni signed. "I lied. He's not hot, he's just better looking then you."
I had to hold back my laughter. That was just like Ronni. "Yeah, sure."
"Hey Esme and Alice are back." Ronni said, happily. I took Demeatry's hand and strolled him inside.
I found out that food dose not taste like dirt to him and that he could still sleep. We got him a bedroom right next to Chris's and mine. Chris, Esme, and Carlisle had forced us to sleep tonight. We had school tomorrow. Apparently the way we looked, was not expectable and that we are suppose to get some sleep.
