Chapter Ten
Alex pov
Months pass us by,and to be completely honest, they have been disappointing.Finding out that the supernatural world is real,I expected to be constant fights with bad guys and crazy vampires and shit,but nothing.
Sure the pack comes across some nomad vamp but I'm never there to witness the action. But, not all is bad, I've gained a new sorta 'family' through the Cullens, dating their daughter/sister and all.
Yeah! I'm actually dating Alice Cullen. It's been absolutely amazing.We made it official when she took me to hiking to show me why they avoid the sun.Edward and Rosalie gained new names from that, Sparkles and Glimmer.They're so easy to annoy.
Rosalie and I, if I had a sister,she would be it,besides Alice, she's the one I get on along with the most in the Cullen household.Emmett got over it,it took weeks for Alice to forgive him,well he bought her this huge pick-up truck,she looks like a kid when inside it she swore to never drive it because of that but its all good now. We're all good.
And the pack,knowing their secret has formed a brotherhood of sorts with them,even Paul, who never gets tired of making vampire jokes when I'm around.
Through Esme, I invited the pack to the Cullens house, it wasn't exactly bad,but everyone agreed its better if everyone kept their distance, at least the guys no longer hate the Cullens, they don't like them,but they don't hate them either,that's a plus for me.
Witnessing them all be supernatural is still amazing,sometimes weird,but cool. The perfect weird/funny situation would be when we got coffins.
flashback:.
I'm with Jasper Edward and Emmett in the newly named 'man cave', I can't seem to focus fully, Alice's new Ford f650 pick up truck is occupying most of my thoughts, I really wanna drive it but I don't want to be annoying. "You look like you're thinking." Edward's voice brings me out of my thoughts. "Huh?What?" He invades my personal spacespace with this constipated look on his face. "I wonder what you're thinking about." I palm his face,shoving him away with an eye roll."Forget it Sparkles,you're not getting inside this head."
With an annoyed grunt he asks,"What were you thinking about so hard?"
"Uh I was just-eh...you know.I was wondering why you guys can't sleep.Yeah" To be fair, the thought did cross my mind.
Emmett scoffs,"We're too awesome for silly things like sleeping."
"Oh really?Then why do you all have bags under your eyes? Have you ever tried sleeping?"
"I have.Nothing happened." Jasper drwals out.
"Well maybe something's missing, a coffin maybe?Since you guys are supposed to be dead, coffins can bring back that missing touch of death,you know,its specially made for dead people to sleep in."
They all pause and stare at me, I gotta admit, the bullshit that just came out of me right now is pretty impressive, but I've just gained a golden opportunity to drive that truck.
"Nah, you're crazy." Emmett eventually breaks the silence and they all go back to watching the screen.Before I can try to convince them some more, Carlisle walks in. Closely followed by the rest of the family.
"Now boys, I think this deserves to be at least investigated."
"See! Carlisle gets it." I say jumping up to put my arm around his shoulder.
"Now come on Sparkles,let's go get ourselves a coffin.We will need the new truck to fit the coffin.I'll drive.",I say already making my way out the door knowing they keep their keys in the garage.
Edward meets me at the door.
"You know,if you really want to drive that truck that badly,all you have to do is ask."
"What?How dare you? This is purely for research purposes."
He just sighs and follows me to the garage. Sliding in the driver seat of this beast,I can't stop the giddy giggle that escapes from my mouth as Edward settles on the passenger seat.
"Research purposes,sure." he drawls out.
Pulling into the Cullen driveway a while later, I rush over to Edward's side,
"Did you see that? The turn I made?It was bloody fantastic."
"Did you have fun?" Alice chimes in hooking her elbow with mine.
"Oh yeah. I was flying." I smile proudly
"Yes,yes,also, please tell her how you accidentally missed seven turns."
"Hush Sparkles,I had to be sure,now take the box inside,we might need to go and get more." I practically drool at the thought.
He shakes his head but takes coffin inside where the rest are already waiting. Rose sends me a smirk,knowing I've been wanting to drive the beast.I smirk back and wink,making her roll her frozen eyes.
We all gather around the coffin and observe it for a while.
"Is anyone going to get in?" I ask
"I'm not getting inside that thing."Emmett booms
"Chicken." I mutter
Carlisle cuts in,"Allow me."
He says before calmly sliding inside and lying down.We watch anxiously as he stares blankly at the ceiling.The rest of them jump back when he suddenly lets out a huge yawn.I give them weird looks.
"How ya feeling Doc?"
"I'm feeling, I'm feeling -yawn-drowsy." he whispers out before finally closing his eyes and light snores follow shortly.
Utter and complete silence.Nobody says a word as we stare at each other before looking at the sleeping doctor.
As snicker escapes before I can stop it.Another one follows before they turn into loud guffaw. The doctor wakes up with a start looking around blankly, "Please do try to be quiet Alex,I haven't had a wink of sleep in over a century." he says before lying back down,this time fully closing the coffin.
I'm howling with laughter trying to crawl out of the room not to disturb he's sleep.At that thought ,my arms give out and I faceplant into the ground still laughing and Alice has to carry me out,herself giggling.
flashback end
I chuckle at the memory, making Alice,who's pulling up my driveway glare my way
"I don't know what you find remotely funny about this situation Alexander."
Full name,yikes. "Sorry babe,I was just thinking about something." I say kissing her cheek. She says nothing opting to get out of the car making me sigh and get out too.
She frantically takes me in her arms before talking quietly and quickly.
"Okay,we have to get you out of here,you have to be angry,yell yes yell out you hate it here,you tried for his sake but Forks isn't for you.Mention my name too.I'll be in your room packing."
She pecks me on the lips before running away before I can say anything.
I stare at the spot she was in before shaking my head and going up the the front door.
"Hey dad." I say calmly
"Hey kiddo,how was baseball with the Cullens?" he asks not taking his eyes off the screen.
"It was bizarre watching Esme run,and Carlisle.I didn't think adults ran." he looks at me weirdly
"What? So you think we loose the ability to run as we get older."
"Well yeah, where do you guys even run to? I know you don't run."
"I'm a cop,of course I run."
"Whatever dad,I'm beat. Goodnight."
"Night kiddo.Stop moaning Alice's name in your sleep."
"DAD!" I feel my face getting warm so I quickly run up the steps before he can say anything embarrassing when she's right here and can hear perfectly.
I open my door to face Alice's withering glare.Man today isn't my day.
"Uh dads an impulsive liar."
"Alex! What the hell? You were supposed to tell Charlie you're leaving for Phoenix right now."
"So you don't care about what dad said?"
"For fucks sake Alex! Your life is in danger! Some crazy nomad is fixed on feeding from you. You're supposed to flying away from here to allow us to come up wit-"
I cut her off with a kiss.
"Alice, right here is the safest place for me. There's seven of you and three of them,plus the pack.Jones doesn't stand a chance."
I watch her face soften from her glare.
"But what if we can't-"
I cut her off again with a kiss.
"When I'm not with you or your family,I'm with the pack, Jason is going to have a really hard time getting past you guys.If he does, I'll be waiting with my flamethrower. "
This time she giggles ,"He's name is James."
"James John? Who cares? Why don't you tell your family to stop worrying.We have got this."
She nods before pulling me for a long sweet kiss that leaves us breathless.
"I I-be careful okay? I don't want anything to happen to you."
"I know Alice,now go,come back though,I plan on thoroughly giving you some lovin when you get back."
She giggles again "I can't wait."
With that she's gone.I allow a couple of minutes to pass before quickly jumping up and taking out my phone dailing Jake's number.
"What's up Swan.Already bored of your bloodsuckers?"
"Jake!You'll never guess what happened."
"You're right.So why don't you tell me."
"So I was watching the Cullens play right?Then suddenly 3 vamps come out. One of them apparently liked the way I smell so now he wants to eat me! Sparkles said he's a tracker and he apparently wants to see what the Cullens will do to protect me before coming in for the kill."
"Jake?"
"So a bloodsucker wants to kill you?"
"Yeah! Isn't it awesome?!"
I hear him sigh over the phone before he starts questioning me about the field the Cullens were playing at, I answer him with short answers as he's taken all the excitement out of it.
The next morning I'm in a sour mood as I pull up the school parking lot.
"I thought Jacob was supposed to drop you off." Alice greets me as we walk towards the school.
"Dont you mention that name in my presents ever again."
"Haha, what did he do this time?"
Rose chimes in on the other side of me.
"They killed those vamps that were after me."I mumble angrily I don't stop walking when they do.
They catch up quickly and Alice drags me away from the school.
"Woah hey! I know I don't like school but I already woke up. It'd be a waste to bunk now."
Ofcourse they completely ignore me and we stand near Rose's BMW.
"What do you mean they killed them?"she asks impatiently.
"I mean they took them out shopping... What else could 'they killed them' possibly mean?"
"Thats right leech, your first instinct was to run,ours was to attack.We went to that field you were playing at and followed their scent to the outskirts of Forks. Whatever they were expecting,it wasn't us."
I turn to glare at Jacob,who's smirking proudly at Rose and Alice.
"You! How dare you come here after what you did?" I ask him trying to get closer but Rose holds the back of my shirt effortlessly stopping me from moving.
"Aw come on dude,we saved your life...And a bunch of othet people's."
"You mean you made it boring again? Thanks for that.You could've at least waited until he found me."
"You were bored this whole time? Maybe it's the company you keep.Good luck finding a new girlfriend." Alice stomps away before I can say anything.
"Way to go Swan.You just got dumped."
Rosalie laughs at me,leaving me with a snickering Jacob.
"But..but...but..." I stammer before turning to Jake."You! You did this."
I glare at him already advancing on him.
"You'll hurt yourself dude."
I ignore him and send a punch to his face.
