Chapter 11: Birthday Surprises

Kat's POV

After a few weeks of school I was starting to get used to the rhythm of everything. I was still sad because Emmett graduated last year and we wouldn't be in school together. I hopped out of my car and made my way over to Jessica, Angela, Ben and Mike.

"Hey, Kat," Jessica said

"Hey, sup," I said.

"Not much." Bella's truck pulled up and she walked out.

"Hey guys," she said.

"Sup Bella,"

"Not much." I knew it was her birthday and I knew she didn't want anyone to know.

"Looks like Cullen's here," Mike said bitterly. We all looked over. Bella ran right over to him. She looked like she needed him to breathe. Unlike her relationship with Edward, Emmett and I weren't really dependent on each other. Edward needed to know exactly where Bella was at every moment of everyday, while Emmett trusted me (it was because he had Alice). Alice walked over to me with Jasper by her side and gave me a hug.

"Hey Alice," I said quickly pulling away. I was never a hugger.

"Hey Kat. You're coming to our place tonight, right?"

"Yeah, what time?"

"Seven." I nodded and she danced off with Jasper slowly walking by her side. I walked to my class and sat down. The classes drowned on slowly. After what seemed like forever and a day, school finally ended. I caught up with Bella after school.

"Happy Birthday," I said and walked away. I could tell she was frowning. I was so happy my birthday was in January.

I got home and went to my room. I put my bag on my bed and felt two cold, strong arms wrap around my waist. I smiled and leaned my head back against the cold, hard chest that was behind me.

"What if it wasn't me, but a creepy stalker dude?" He whispered in my ear.

"I don't know," I said and turned around to face him, his topaz eyes studied my face, "But I'm glad it's you." I wrapped by arms around his neck. He smiled and kissed me. I smiled.

"I'm glad you're glad."

"That was a little confusing but sweet." He laughed. I sat down on my bed and he sat down next to me. He pulled me onto his lap. I smirked.

"Bella's party tonight," he said

"Yeah, that was the first thing Alice talked to me about today." He laughed.

"Well you know her."

"Yeah. It's a good thing she doesn't know when my birthday is."

"Neither do I."

"I don't do anything for my birthday. Normally I just stay home from school and do whatever I want."

"Isn't that what you already do."

"Yeah, but I don't get in trouble then." He smiled and a wave of nausea hit me. A pounding head ache came next.

"Are you okay?" Emmett's face was full of concern.

"Yeah, I just haven't really been feeling like myself lately."

"Are you sick?"

"I don't know. I just got a head ache and really nauseous." He placed his hand on my forehead.

"You don't have a fever."

"Maybe I just need to rest." He nodded. I stood up and climbed into bed. He was about to lie down next to me until his phone buzzed.

"Alice needs me back at the house. If you still aren't feeling better, you don't have to come." I nodded. He kissed my forehead and leapt from the window. I placed my head on the pillow and closed me eyes.

I dreamed of my parents. My mother's auburn hair was up in it's usual position. My father's short brown hair was messy. They were dressed in their funeral clothes. I took a step towards them. They weren't solid but they weren't transparent. It was a subtle middle that told me they weren't invisible or alive.

"Katrina," my mother spoke. It was so nice to hear her voice.

"Mom, dad." They nodded.

"Your life is going to change," my father said.

"What do you mean?"

"Time will tell." Their figures slowly started to fade. I kept reaching out for them but soon they were gone. I awoke with a start. I looked around my room. It was dark out. I looked at my clock. It was 6:45. I was gonna be up all night. I stood up. I was still nauseous. I grabbed my phone and texted Emmett.

Still not feeling well, I don't think I'm gonna come

Alright, do you want me to come by?

No I'm fine, stay at the party with everyone else. Tell Alice I said sorry

She'll understand. I walked downstairs and went to the kitchen. I grabbed an apple and sat down next to Dan on the couch.

"Hey," he said.

"Hey."

"You okay?"

"I haven't been feeling myself."

"You sick?"

"Naw, I'm fine." He nodded and turned his attention back to the game. About an hour later I got a text from Emmett, telling me to meet him outside. His jeep pulled up and I walked over to it."

"Sup," I asked. He gripped the steering wheel tightly. "Emmett, are you okay?" He didn't answer. I was starting to get nervous. He pulled up to a secluded cove and got out. He helped out and led me to a rock.

"Are you going to tell me what's wrong?" I asked, placing a hand on his shoulder. He sighed.

"Jasper attacked Bella."

"What?"

"Yeah. She got a paper cut. It was one tiny drop of blood and he went nuts. It took both Carlisle and I to hold him back. You should've seen her face."

"I still don't understand why you're so depressed though?"

"Because, Kat, we're leaving."

"Wait, what?"

"We're leaving Forks and not coming back."

"Emmett you can't."

"Katrina, we have to. After what happened earlier, there's no way we can stay. I'm so sorry. You have no idea." We were quiet. I couldn't believe it. They were leaving.

"I brought you out here, because I wanted to tell you with out having my family all around us." He took my petite hand into his huge one and kissed it. I looked at him. My hazel eyes bore into his topaz ones. I was searching. Hopping that he would say it's a joke. Hopping he would say he wasn't leaving, but he didn't.

"Please take me home, Emmett." He nodded and stood up. I got up and walked to the jeep. We drove to my house and he stopped in front. Before I could get out he kissed me. I could tell he was putting everything into it. All the emotions he was feeling. I pulled after a few seconds.

"I'm so sorry, Kat." I nodded. "I love you, Katrina Moore. So much."

"I love you too, Emmett Cullen." I climbed out of the car and with that he drove off and it was the last time I saw him.
