Leaving

I never thought that leaving Brydon would be so hard. I got in the car and Tanya pulled out of the spot in the driveway and headed away from the house. I glanced out the rearview mirror to get one last glimpse of the house. He was standing looking down the driveway motionless. It took everything in me not to get out of the car and run back to him. I took in a deep breath and relaxed at the speed we were traveling. I've never liked going slow.

" Ember I know how hard it is leaving them." Tanya said.

" No you don't. You get to see them again. I don't."

" Decklen will come and see you." She said. It's not Decklen that I want to come see me. " You never end the surprises do you? You care about Brydon very much. Your mind is just him."

" Please stop. You're not making this any easier. I have to start a life with out them." I said.

" I know my boys, it will be hell when I get back and they know that your not there. I wont be surprised if they are fighting about you right now."

" Did you say that to make me feel better, because if you did it just made it twice as bad."

" No but this is to make you feel better." She said. She kept one hand on the wheel and her other hand went around the back of her seat. She pulled out a box and handed it to me. It was wrapped in gold paper. " Open it." She said.

I pulled off the paper and it reveled a brown box. I opened it and it held a sleek silver cell phone, charger and a key. " What's the key for?" I asked.

" It's a key to the house. You're a part of the family so you get a key. You can come over any time you would like. We each have a cell phone and you can call anyone of us anytime you want. All of our numbers are already in the phone and we all have yours so don't be surprised if you get a call within the next few hours."

" Thank you." I said.

We talked about cars and speed for the rest of the drive. Tanya told me all about the Audi we were in. If there was a guy in the car he would have thought that our conversation would have been very funny. It's not everyday that you see two women talking about cars.

We pulled up to a light blue house. You would have never thought that vampires lived in the house. It was a classic two-story house and had trees lining the property. The house was out side of town and only took us about 20 minutes to get there driving at about 90 mph the whole way. There didn't seem to be any other houses around. That's good. No humans around, no slip-ups.

" Are you ready?" Tanya asked

" Am I ever going to be?" I asked Tanya laughed a little and got out of the car. I went to reach for the door handle and the door opened.

" And you thought that you could get rid of me." Decklen said. I rolled my eyes and smiled. He held his hand out to help me out of the car. I didn't need it but it was a thought full thing that he did so I took his hand. I took my box too.

" You track us?" I asked.

" Yep." He said

" Stalker." I mumbled joking. He just smiled.

A short woman with dirty blond hair came running human pace out of the house towards us. " Tanya!" she yelled happy to see her.

" Colleen!" Tanya yelled and ran to her. They exchanged a quick hug and walked to Decklen and I. The woman named Colleen looked at me all most as if she was surprised.

" Its impossible to not have self esteem points taken looking at you. Tanya here wanted me to keep a wishful thinking that after your stay I wouldn't be a depressed vampire but boy Tanya that's not going to happen. God you mush have been with every boy in your school." Colleen said.

" Nope. Only one guy." I said

" But now I see you have Decklen. Good pick." She said smiling.

" Oh, no. He's just my stalker." I said with a smile elbowing him in the ribs. Tanya and Colleen both laughed.

" I'm Colleen." She said extending her hand.

" I'm Ember." I said shacking her hand. Her eyes widened unmistakably with shock.

" Why don't you come in. Oh and its good to see you Decklen but Matt is here." She said a tad apprehensive.

" I'll try not to provoke him." He said. I'll ask him what he meant about that later.

We fallowed Colleen into the house. It was beautiful. The floor plan was open so you could see from one room to the next. We walked into a living room. The couches were dark brown leather. A boy with black, wild, curly hair was sitting on the floor playing video games. He turned around suddenly. He looked straight into my eyes. His eyes were a cold ice blue. No vampire had blue eyes except Matt from what Brydon told me. The reason why they are blue is just like blue stars. Blue stars are more hot the yellow stars. The fire in him is hotter then if you started a fire.

" Is she staying Mom?" He asked

" Yes she is, so be nice." Colleen said to Matt.

" I will." He said then turned back to his video games.

My hands started to tingle then the rest of my body soon after. I started to become hot. I haven't been hot since I became a vampire.

" Matt how do you control it?" Tanya asked.

" Think of something that really cold when I have an out burst." He said looking at the TV.

" Do as he says." Tanya said to me.

I thought of the cold thing that Brydon put on my forehead. The heat suddenly went away and I felt fine.

" Ember this is Matt. Matt say hello to Ember." Colleen said.

He turned around. " Hey." He said looking at me. I gave him a weak wave. He looked to Colleen. " Mom, Tim is going to kill you." He said.

" No it will work out." Colleen said to him.

" Keep telling yourself that." He said and turned back to the TV.

Holy fuck! I was so into this kid and how odd he is that I didn't realize what he said. I stiffened. He said Tim. Tim.

" Relax its going to be okay." Decklen whispered into my ear. I didn't relax. How could I? I'm going to have to live with someone that has the same name of the guy that I love. I can't do this. This is going to be hell.

" Matt will you go get your brother?" Colleen asked.

" He's not my brother." He grumbled but put his controller down and went up the stairs behind us.

" Sit down, relax." Colleen said.

We sat down. Decklen put his arm around me and I turned to him.

" Stop. I had to say good-bye to you once already and I'm not looking forward to having to say it again. Please don't make it any harder." I said to him.

He moved his arm. " I don't have to be Brydon to see how upset you are." He whispered to me.

I could hear them coming down the stairs behind me. I couldn't bring myself to look.

" Ember look!" Tanya shouted at me in her head. I squeezed my eyes shut. "Ember it's him. It's Tim!" She shouted to me in her head. She was trying to trick me. I knew that when I showed her what he looked like it would come back to haunt me.

I am so sorry I didn't update yesterday. I had to help my Dad take a tree near my house down. Well it wasn't all of the treee but a HUGE part of it. I'm feeling crappy so leave me A LOT of reviews to make me feel better.
