Chapter 10

Amaya

I awoke at seven to a loud rumbling noise. I looked around me and saw Darius his hands limp but still holding me even in slumber. I remember falling asleep his head in my lap stroking his face. I knew he was faking after a while but I simply continued to do it anyway. I loved it and he loved it to or else he would open his eyes. I had fallen asleep doing that and to wake up in his arms was amazing. He was my light and like the earth around the sun I orbited around him. He had my heart freely given and I had his and that is the way it would be for all time. He snored loudly his mouth hanging open his tongue sticking out, he looked completely out of it and completely adorable like a little kid instead of the six foot five young man he was.

I slowly tentivly reached up my hand and stroked his face he didn't even stir. He continued to snore just as loudly as ever. I smiled and sat up in his lap facing his sleeping face. He was so beautiful, I had to kiss him, lightly I kissed him on the lips and resived a blast of from his exhale. I smiled his breath smelled like the forest and like a thousand other good things I couldn't name and to my surprise I could also breath it in. I breathed in and out sharing air with my love. Sharing life it was amazing something I could never do if I was human. A smile was on his lips dispite that he was still snoring as loudly as ever. I wondered if he had just fallen asleep as I had woken up. I was content to stay like this forever sharing life with the one I loved.

I stopped breathing air with him and tucked my chin into his sholder simply listening to his snores brought me a level of peace that I had never even felt before. It was so strange and so wonderful. Then flakes of snow began to drift down upon us melting on our skin and making it glisten like dimonds I gently put the blanket over our heads so that he would continue to sleep. It was amazing in that little self made shelter in Darius's arms watching the snow fall right in frount of me and hearing his snoring in my ear. It was a sound that I listened to for hours. I eventually fell asleep listening to his gentle breathing. No fear of the snow because we were to warm to die from exposure.

As I slept the snow continued to fall covering us completely. Little did I know how panicked the rest of my family was up above. I slept on for two whole days, as did Darius. For although we could not die like humans from over exposure we could be weakened from it. On the third day I heard voicesup above in what seemed the distance, over the snoring that my Darius was making. it was enough to wake me from my sleep

"Did you hear that?" Asked Amelia.

"It's just the wind, come lets search elsewhere." Devon was saying. I turned to Darius and awoke him. He blinked back sleep from his eyes and smiled at me.

"Good morning." He said.

"I think it has been longer than just one morning. I think that we might be trapped in snow." I told him and packed the snow around us.

"That would explain why my neck is so stiff." He said.

"Don't move until I pack in over your head." I told him.

"Alright." He agreed we couldn't die of overexposure but lack of oxygen was another thing intirely. I grabbed a stick that I had been lying on and poked it through first punching through as far as I could with my hand. The stick reached out into the air giving us a blast of fresh air. I smiled and shouted.

"YO, Devon down here." I knew that Devon most probably had just jumped a mile.

"Amaya?"

"In the flesh and Darius is with me."

"Hello brother and sister." Darius said dryly. "Could you help us?"

"Of course we will dig you out. How deep are you?

"Seems to be about five feet or so." I replied and I heard him yell up above.

"We have found them." Digging was the only sound for a while before we got out.

"I am starving." I said. "I could eat a whole pizza by myself."

"Pizza sounds good." Devon said.

"For you pizza always sounds good." I said.

"We first have to tell Bella and Edward where we are going." Amelia said

"Alright I am game if you are." Daruis said.

"You will love Za." Devon said. "Most kids do."

"Well, I do have my credit card." Amelia said. "I suppose that we could send everyone a wind message." I looked blankly at her.

"She can control the winds isn't that awesome?" Devon asked me.

"Yeah it is pretty cool." I said as a wind gust blew past us.

"Wolf form?" Amelia asked.

"You know it." I replied.

"I have an idea, go wolf back, that way half of us can wear clothes and hold them for the other half." Darius said. "I think that the ladies should be the ones to do so." I and Amelia agreed and both sat astride Darius and Devon after they transformed. We held their clothes as they galloped through the trees. After about thirty minutes of riding. If we had gone by car it would have been a lot longer. We arrived at the nearest town. Darius and Devon changed back into their clothes and fallowed our noses to food.

"Zelistio's za shop, made to order." Devon said and licked his lips.

"Pizza palor, not za shop." I said sighing.

"Whatever." He said and the four of us went into the shop.

A waiter came up to us and asked, "Would you like to see the menu?"

"No we want two large and two medium pizzas topped with all the meat you have on them." I replied and smiled at Devon.

"Alright and anything to drink?"

"How about a piture of pepsi." I said knowing that my brother got to the point of almost being drunk when he had pepsi. Wait no he was my cousin not my brother.

"Alright coming up." She said and brought us the soda first.

"What is this stuff and why is it bubbling?" Darius said doubtfully whispering.

"Soda, it's good try it." I encouraged and downed my own glass. Devon chugged his and a manic glee filled his eyes.

"Soda is good soda is great." He said and started boncing up and down on the lounge seats. The two others eyed my brother and pushed away their glasses.

"Come on now."

"If it is going to affect me like it affects him I will pass." Darius said.

"Soda soda soda soda." Devon said smiling happily and then took a second cup. He drained it and before my eyes the piture vanished. Devon was now so hyper that he didn't know what to do with himself. His eyes were roaming about the room. It was at that moment the food came. I got the large as did Darius.

"Dig in it, you bite it not the other way around." I said and demolished my first piece in thirty seconds not even taking the time to chew or breath. I took another piece and another and everyone stared shocked as I finished the whole pizza in five minutes.

"That must be a world record." The waitress said. "I will give you another one free if you finish it that fast again." She said and took out a camera. I smiled and started eating Darius's who still hadn't touched it. I finished and burped loundly.

"Amaya appitite extrodenare." My brother said as another pizza came onto our table. Darius took a piece and bit into it hesitantly. He grinned and began to eat with gusto. I smiled.

"See your not dying." I told him and he laughed cheese dripping down from his chin. I gently nibbled it off.

"Amaya, trying to eat here." Devon said although his own pizza was finished. Amelia smiled at him and took a bite. I ordered more pepsi and this time they both drank.

"This is interesting." Darius whispered. "It's making me feel all warm like a ray of sunshine." He said.

"You are my sunshine my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey you never know dear how much I love you please don't take my sunshine away." Devon sang loudly. When the bill came I was surprised to find that we had only been charged for the drinks.

"My father decided that as you ate so fast and seemed to enjoy it so much he is giving you free pizza any time. If you agree to allow us to put your abilities on a ad."

"Of course why not." I said smiling. We paid for the drinks and left the restuarnt.

"M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E, Mickey mouse mickey mouse forever raising our banners high high high." He sang off kilter. "Mickey mouse donald duck. Mickey mouse donald duck." He sang and laughed Darius was quivering in fear and then he toppled over in a faint.

"What's wrong with him. Wrong song everyone sing along. This is the song that never ends it just goes on and on my friends and they will continue something something something something." Devon sang as I picked up Darius and held him in my arms talk about role reversal. As we entered the forest Devon fell to the ground fast asleep.

"The bigger they are the harder they fall. Devon gets very hyper and then he crashes. I suppose we will spend the night here." I said to Amelia. "Or a little further in the forest."

"Good idea." She replies and together we set off, me carring the two boys over each shoulder and having Devon's loud snoring in my ear. We find a clearing and settle down for the night. I fall asleep next to Darius listening to his soft breathing.
