Apparently, our families were trying to give us some 'privacy'. We both knew they were eavesdropping on us, so we left for the mountain.
"Ha! I won again!" I yelled as I made it to the top of the mountain first, yet again.
Rob ran up behind me and picked me up and put me over his shoulder. I laughed, and he ran me to the bottom of the mountain. Then he dropped me onto the ground and ran back up the mountain.
"I'm gonna win this time!" He yelled.
I ran after him, catching up with in about two minutes. He was almost to the top when I tackled him to the top of the mountain. I pinned him down.
Smiling, I said, "I win again." I said staring down at Rob.
"I think I won." He said.
"Yeah, but you cheated! That doesn't count." I said and laughed.
He just shrugged his shoulders and said, "Ya still love me, though." He stated.
I laughed and let him get up. We stood up. Then I walked up to the biggest apple tree I've ever seen, and climbed up it in less than a minute. It was a really tall tree, and it had a great view of the forest. Then I felt hands on my shoulders. I smiled.
"This is the biggest apple tree I've ever seen." I said.
He laughed. "I think you're right." He said.
We just sat in the apple tree for a few hours and talked about everything, anything, and nothing.
Then we decided to go back to my house to see what everyone else was up to. We raced back to my house. I won (as usual), and I bragged about it the whole way to my house.
When we got there, I noticed something...different about our living room...I just didn't know what it was. Hmmmm. Esme was cooking something for Nessie to eat. Nessie was sitting on a barstool by the little island, talking to Esme in the kitchen area. (our kitchen is connected with our living room.) Brooke and Alice were talking about clothes and it looked like they were getting more excited by the minute, because of a future shopping trip. Rose was looking in a mirror as usual. Emmett was arm-wrestling Bella. Jasper was reading some war book. Tim and MIchael were placing bets on who could win Alice over by the end of the summer. Gracie was beating up Nathaniel. Carlisle was talking to some guy. Wait! Some guy? What the heck?
"Haley, Rob, there you guys are!" Carlisle said and gestured for us to come over to him.
We walked over to Carlisle and the guy.
"This is-"
"Freaky Fred! What are you doing here?" Rob said.
"Robby Boy! What are youdoing here?" Freaky Fred said.
"I came because I found Bree..." He got a sad look on his face. "Well, not her, but someone who knew what...happened...to her...and I want to become like these people, I know that she'd want me to be good." He paused. "But why are you here, Rob? Is Matt here with you?"
"Actually, no, he died not that long ago..." He looked over at me and smiled. "And I'm here because, after you left, Matt found some more vampires for his coven, and we moved here, which is where we met the Cullens. Most dramatic family I've ever met." He laughed.
I slapped him playfully on the arm.
"We are not!" I said.
"Are too." He said.
"Are-" He kissed me, cutting me off and making me feel as happy and content as a fat guy at a pie-tasting party...but I was still annoyed; who the heck is this guy he's talking to?
"Looks like you finally found that girl you'd been searching for." said Freaky Fred.
Rob pursed his lips."Mmmm, no, I don't think so-she's too...weird, and short, and she's sertifiably insane, controls people's minds, hell bent on dictating the world-" I glared at him. "Did I say bent on dictating the world, controling people's minds, and certifiably insane? I meant adorable, funny, and crazy in a good way!"
I started walking away. This was gonna be funny.
"Gorgeous? Beautiful? Amazing? I love you!" He kept saying.
I just laughed.
"Dude, you are sooooo whipped." Michael said.
"Yeah, you're right." Rob sighed.
Carlisle was still standing over by Freaky Fred.
"So, you want to become like us?" Carlisle asked.
He nodded.
"It's not something you can just do overnight, it's like trying to quit smoking, only a thousand times harder." Carlisle replied.
"I know that, but I will work my best to do so, though." Freaky Fred said.
"Alright, but I'll have to talk to my family about you being a Cullen first, you can stay the night if you'd like."
"Thank you, Carlisle." Freaky Fred said.
Carlisle just nodded, and walked away.
I walked over to Freaky Fred; there was somehting familiar about him. Hmmmm...Blonde hair...kinda short...hmmmm his hair is ! It looks like its cemented to his forehead!
"So, do you have any powers?" I asked.
"Well, I have one that makes me seem disgusting to everyone, but I've learned to control it, and I have another one. Here let me show you." He grinned mischieviously.
Suddenly, I looked back at him, and felt so happy, like I was loopy and in love with this guy. It was like he was the world.
"Wow..." Was all I could say.
I think I was swooning...druling...and most likely had a sickeningly-in-love look in my eyes. Then the giggling started. Not just regualr giggling, but the kind of giggle girls on TV have when they say 'Oh my gosh, you are soooooooo funny' to the guy they like. Normally, I'd be disgusted by that, but I really couldn't think of anything in this state of mind, other than Fred.
I giggled some more and said, "I luh-huv you." and kept swooning and druling and everything else.
Then, Rob came over.
He looked at me, then at Freaky Fred, and had a 'wtf' look on his face. He grabbed onto my shoulders, and postioned me so I was in front of him, looking him directly in the eyes. All I saw was Fred. Fred...*swoon*.
Rob looked back over to Fred. "Freddy, what the heck did you do to her?' He demanded. Wow, he looked peeved. I wonder why? Who was this guy anyway, and why was he talking to MY Fred like that? Who does he think he is?
"Who the heck do you think you are to talk to MY Fred like that?" I yelled at whoever this guy was.
Fred just laughed. "Oh, just my power, Robby Boy, nothing to worry about." He kept laughing. "It really came in handy when I wanted to pursue a music career. Making girls swoon over you at will, it was very entertaining."
"Fred, stop! Please, man? She can't even remember me!" Rob begged.
"Geez, Rob, okay. What happened to your party-animal attitude?" Fred said.
Then, I was sane again. I remembered everything that had just happened.
"Okay, what the heck just happened?" I said.
Rob ran over in front of me, and made me look into his eyes.
"Do you know who I am?" He asked.
"Yup, and I don't 'luh-huv' Fred. I'm back to normal, so you can stop gripping my shoulders so tightly now." I laughed.
"Okay." He breathed a sigh of relief.
I turned back to Fred. "Okay, Fred, what exactly is your power?" I asked.
He grinned. "Oh, ya know, I can make people fall in love with me with the snap of a finger, and if I don't make it stop, they quickly only become aware of me, and nothing and no one else. Not such a good idea for the victim, but it can be very entertaining for me." He answered.
I grimaced. "Don't ever do that to me again, or I will pummel you into a pulp, and I can, just ask Emmett over there." I said.
"I can't make any promises, but I'll try my best." He winked at me. Ugh. This guy was a complete perv.
I decided to change the subject. "So, were you alone before, or were you in a group of other nomads?" I asked.
"Well, at first, I was in some sort of army; that's where I...met...Bree. She wanted to go through with the war, but I decided to leave, and told her to come find me when the war was over...and it never happened. She died in the war...part of the reason I came here was because you, the Cullen's, tried to save her, even if you couldn't, it means a lot to me that you tried." He looked really sad now.
"It's alrigh-" I started to say, but Nessie's shrieking cut me off.
"OH-MY-GOD! IT'S JUSTIN BEIBER!" She screamed.
She hadn't seen Fred because she was in the kitchen with Esme.
Wait a second...short, blonde hair that looks like it's cemented to his forehead,. Oh-my-god! That's why he looked like familiar!
"Hey! Now I know who you are!" Freaky Fred and I said at the same time.
Everyone just stared at us, waiting to be filled in on why we know who eachother is.
"Oh, sorry, let us explain." I said. "You see, we went on tour together when he was still human, that's why it took us so long to figure out who eachother was. He looks different from when he was a squeaky-voiced human to me, and he couldn't remember me right away, because it's hard to remember things from your human life."
Rob had a very confused look on his face.
"Oh, did I mention I use to be a rockstar?" I asked him.
"Um, no?" He said.
"Yeah, Reesa here, got me started in the music career. I was her opening act, and teenage girls went crazy over me." Fred/Justin explained.
"Reesa?" Rob asked looking to me.
"Well, it's sort of a long story..." I said.
"Why don't you tell us about all those shananagains you did as Reesa Leigh, after we vote on whether...?" Carlisle looked to Fred/Justin.
"Call me Fred." He answered.
"Right, on whether Fred here, gets voted to stay with us." Carlisle said.
Everyone mumbled an 'okay'.
"Okay, everybody, let's go into the dining room for a meeting." Carlisle said and everyone started to file into the dining room.
Well, the rest of the night should be interesting...
