Chapter 11: BRING IT ON!
I stared off into space as Mr. Vero rambled on about math. I sat next to Alice, and the table behind us sat Rose, Jake, and Nessie. That probably wasn't the best, the got on each others nerves more then necessary. They were always at each others necks. Though Renesmee, Alice and I weren't in the same grade as Rose and Jacob this school still mixed the students when necessary. We were 'gifted' for our age, so we were transferred to a higher class, with older kids.
Three weeks until winter break, and only four weeks until the wedding. My nerves would get all wound up when I really thought about it. I was excited. I wasn't nervous at all, never had any doubts. I mean, how could I be making a mistake with my soul mate?
Alice shifted in her seat, and elbowed me in the ribs. It didn't hurt, but it was her way of saying the teacher was going to pick on me to answer a question. I turned my attention back to Mr. Vero and waited until the future moment Alice saw.
Mr. Vero started talking about simple equations, and started picking on students to go up to the board and do an equation. Our family was rarely called up anymore, we always got the answers right. Every now and then a teacher would call us up, either hoping to catch us of guard or so the other students wouldn't think they were just picking on them and not us.
"Miss Jade, will you please come up and do this fourth equation?" He asked.
"'Course." I replied. I got out of my seat and went to the board where three other students were working on equations. I stared at mine for only a fifth of a second, working it out in my head. Math was super simple for me, and for most of my family.
Not even two seconds had passed since I got to my equation, and I knew then answer. I waited for about five more seconds, not wanting to look like a know it all. If I answered to soon, it mite make our family noticed, and we didn't want to look or seem…different. I quickly wrote down the answer and turned around to face the class.
Their faces were so funny! I had to stifle a giggle. Even Alice was smiling. I had finished before anyone else, and everyone else that was up had been up several minutes before me. They were all in a bit of a shock. I just stood there, smiling.
"I'm all done, may I sit back down?" I asked Mr. Vero. He swallowed.
"Yes, of course. Go right ahead."
I smiled at him then went back to my seat. Alice was shaking just the tiniest bit with laughter. She handed me a paper. I grabbed it and looked up. The teacher was watching and helping the students at the board, and the students around us were working. I looked down at the paper, it was a note.
You'd think the teachers would stop calling on us, we always finish well before the other students and are always right. Did you see their faces? Ha ha ha…
I smiled. It was true, the teachers really had no choice but to call on us now an then. We really didn't care, but others did. I wrote a response.
I know what you mean, Lol but its not like they have much of a choice, someone mite complain…Ugh!
I slid the paper over to Alice, and she smiled when she read it. The bell rang and Mr. Vero scrambled to tell the class whatever announcements he needed to stay. The class filed out, towards the café for lunch.
I walked with Alice and Rose, Jacob and Nessie went off on their own to the café.
We entered the café together, got our lunches and sat with the rest of the family in our usual spot. I sat next to Bella.
"Finally! I'm starving, can I eat your food?" Jacob asked me with egger eyes.
"'Course you can Jake, I'm not hungry." I laughed.
Everyone laughed. Jacob ate everybody's food everyday; he was a bottom less pit of nothing. He would inhale his food; he never looked like he actually ate it.
Lunch ended all too soon, and I headed to my next class, social studies. I was much into history, especial human history. It board me to death. The class was even more horrible with Emmett. I was lucky to have Rosalie with me, she was able to keep us from really getting at it. I love Emmett, but he just kept teasing me about Ian and things that he really shouldn't. I got so annoyed.
That class ended, and Emmett was still at it. On my way out I passed him, and under my breath I hissed. I couldn't wait until I was done training. I would be finished in one week, and in one week Emmett's ass was going to be handed to him on a silver platter.
I was a good fighter, and since I was even smaller then Alice because of my age, I was one of the quickest. Ian couldn't catch me, Jasper couldn't, Rose couldn't, and it seemed almost no one could. Only Edward could catch me, but only because of his mind reading thing, I was even faster then him now.
I was off to gym; witch would be a fun class if I could really use my muscles. But otherwise it was just boring. I had gym with Edward, Bella, and Emmett. This would be the only year we would have to take it, and I was grateful. The only rezone Emmett was here was because they mixed students for gym. I was not grateful for that.
As I walked into the locker room I caught one of the boys looking at me before he continued into the boy's locker room. I sighed. This would never end, and maybe only get worse when Ian arrived after winter break.
"Hey Jade." Bella greeted me when I got to my locker witch was next to hers.
"Hey Bell, what's up?" I said as I dressed into a pair of black basketball shorts and the school P.E shirt.
"Nothing much, except I believe that Emmett's going to get his ass beat next weekend." She smiled. She had never had the guts to go against Emmett, and she was just too sweet. She couldn't wait until I gave Emmett a bit of his own medicine.
"That is correct. Now, it's on the down low remember?" I whispered as low as I possible could in her ear, no human would dream of hearing me. She nodded and we walked out into the gym.
Today was going to be a choice, laps or basketball. We all choice laps, mostly because we really didn't want to deal with other humans sweaty bodies around us and their drumming hearts. That would not be good for me, so as we started to jog I made sure to be farther away from humans.
"To bad we really can't run, huh Jade?" Edward asked. He loved to race me, but he always lost. I laughed at him, and didn't reply. Emmett was next to me and he shoved me. I hissed back at him, he just laughed. Man, I can't wait until next weekend.
We came around the last bend when the coach whistled for us that it was time to go inside. As we turned the corner I saw the figure again, for like the hundredth time. Now every day after school I would see it in the reflection of the car's window. And just like the first day, I would spin around and it was gone.
But now, as I saw it head on I knew for sure it was my mother's murderer. I blinked and the then the figure was gone. I froze dead in my tracks. The others flew by me but stopped and came back.
"Jade what's wrong?" Bella asked me.
"Hey now, it's okay." Emmett said soothingly, he was annoying but one of the best big brothers ever. I couldn't deny that.
"Where was the figure?" Edward asked knowing through my thoughts that I had seen him. I just pointed to the spot where the trees broke off and the lawn in the back of the school began.
I was frozen, every muscle in my body locked into place. I wasn't breathing, I wasn't seeing. My whole head was filled with the image of the figure.
Fingers were snapping in my face, someone was pulling me along.
"It'll be okay, now came on! We have to get inside before the coach comes to look for us!" Someone said.
"The bell's gona ring, we got to get home to warn Carlisle." Someone else said. Those words snapped me out of the haze constricting my thoughts. Home. I must get home, I must get to Ian!
I picked up my pace, walking fast. It may have been a little to fast for a human but I didn't care. Bella and I got to the locker room and redressed in our normal close. We hurried out of the school and got to the car. Emmett and Edward were right behind us.
"Drive." I said; wanting to badly to be able to run home, to make sure Ian was ok.
The engine roared to life, purring beneath us. We pulled out of the parking lot, and I watched as the school disappeared behind us with in seconds. The blur out of my window was the only thing I saw.
Edward's phone buzzed in his pocket for one second, and then he had it to his ear.
"Hello Alice, yes that's exactly what happened. I'm sorry we didn't wait but Jade wanted to get home now. We need to get home now." Edward said. I heard Alice respond on the other end.
"Meet you at home in a few then." She said then the line went dead. Edward put the phone back into his pocket.
We turned off the road onto the turn off towards the house.
"Wait, stop here." I said and as soon as the car stopped I got out of the car.
"What are you doing?" Bella asked me.
"Running." I said and took off like a bullet. I was in the house in a second. I didn't see anyone.
"Ian!" I yelled, panicking. He was beside me at once. I turned to him and threw my arms around him with all of my strength. I was too happy to hold it back.
"Nice to see…you too… love. Ow." He spluttered out. I immediately held back my strength but didn't take my arms back. I buried my face in his chest.
"What's wrong Jade?" He asked, his voice layered with worry.
"I saw the figure dead on today during gym. It is my mother's killer. I had to see if you were okay." I said. He wrapped his arms around me tight, pulling me as close as possible.
I heard the car come in the driveway then, three doors opened then closed. The front door opened and everyone come in. I heard another car come into the driveway, fours doors opened then closed. The rest of the family came through the open door.
"What exactly happened?" Ian asked someone behind me, he pulled me to the couch, setting me on his lap. I curled into a ball, pressing against him as much as possible.
"We were running laps for gym and just about to go inside. Jade saw the figure at the end of the tree line and froze in place. We went to her but by the time she pointed to the spot, he was gone. Jade's been…"- Edward couldn't seem to find the right words. I could feel Ian just nod, he understood.
His hand came to my face, pulling my chin up so I would have to look at him. I looked into his amber eyes, they didn't have anymore read in them. Mine were gold now, like butterscotch or topaz.
"It will be ok, your training will be done soon, and then we go on a man hunt. We will track him down, don't you worry about me. We know what were looking for, I can handle what ever comes here. Now, do you want to know what I did today?" He asked me, his eyes smoldering.
I took a deep breath. "Sure."
He smiled his wide grin that seemed to fill his whole face. He got up, picking me up with him, bridal style. He gave me a quick peek on the lips then pulled me around until he was giving me a piggy back ride.
"So, what did you do today?" I asked as he waved everyone else to fallow.
"You'll see." He walked out the front door and into the garage. There was a new car there, but it was covered by a black tarp. Ian set me on my feet then covered my eyes with his hands.
"What do you think your doing?" I said.
"Hold on, just wait for a moment." He said. I heard someone pull the tarp off the car, then felt the whoosh of air go by. Ian's hands disappeared from my eyes so I could see.
One of his hands reached for mine. "I've known how to drive but I of course, had to get a new license. In a few months, I can officially drive." He said, a smile in his voice.
In front of me parked was a shiny black mustang GT, the newest model. It was beautiful with its glossy silver rims, and bold black tires. It looked powerful, and I had no doubt he would have Rosalie look at it and see how much more powerful she could make it.
"Wow, it's beautiful" I said, lightly placing my hand on the hood. I walked around it, running my hand lightly on the side.
"I'm glad you like it, and soon you'll want to get a license and a car." He said.
"So what made you decide to get a car?" I asked, surprise plan in my voice. I knew we would get cars eventually, but hadn't really thought about it.
"I don't know, I got a little board today. Carlisle got called to work so I asked Esme to take me to the DMV to get my learners permit and then she took me to get a car for my 'sixteenth' birthday." He smiled, clearly pleased with himself.
"Do you want me to take a look, see what I can do?" Rose asked him.
"Sure, It only goes about one fifty-five at top speed, so I hope you can get a little more out of it. Maybe one seventy-five? It's not a muscle car, it's a pony car." He replied.
"Huh?' I asked.
"Pony car mean it's not supposed to be like a drag racer, but more of a sports car. It's mad for people who want a little flash, but not all of the pizzazz." Ian chuckled. I didn't speak car, but I understood plenty. I nodded.
He wrapped his arms around my waist and put his chin on my shoulder. I leaned into him wanting to feel more of him.
"What kind of car would you like Jade, for your sixteenth birthday?" Alice asked me, bouncing up and down.
"I know I want a fast car, but I don't know about to many sports cars. I want something different from what you call have, because it seems everyone has a different car." I said.
"Well, I'm sure we can find something." Edward said, laughing.
I looked out of the garage to the setting sun. It was twilight as the sun's light slowly faded from behind the clouds. It made me think of the diamond like faucets in my skin, and in Ian's. I'd never seen him sparkle; he had never seen me sparkle. I'd only seen myself once, and it was just my arm.
Most of my family behind me was in a discussion about the type of car I should get. The only one who wasn't was Bella. She came to stand next to me, and she slipped her hand in mine. I looked up at her.
"It's going to be okay. I'm worried to but after all that I've been through, and with everyone here, it will work out. I have no doubts. This man will not touch you or our family." She smiled with a determination in her eyes it could only be true.
"Some part of me knows that, but I can't help but be worried. Three weeks left of school, and I can't skip a day of it just to make sure Ian will be ok." I shook my head; I had to finish my first years as an immortal through high school to get everything imbedded into my perfect memory.
Her hand squeezed mine for just a second. "You are strong Jade; you can handle whatever comes your way. And we will be right behind you."
The others were now around us, listening to our conversation. Everyone nodded in agreement with Bella.
"Don't worry little sis, I'll protect you." Emmett grinned.
"We are all here for you, never forget that." Carlisle said from the porch steps, Esme sat beside him nodding in agreement.
"I want let him touch you, and I'll keep myself safe." Ian murmured, his hand holding my only free one.
Everyone seemed to have something to say, someway to tell me it would all be okay. I believed them.
"Okay, okay, enough with all this mushy gushy stuff!"- Emmett through his hands in the air with a big grin on his face.-"It's time to get this show on the road. If we are going to track this guy we need to finish training this little newborn, or she'll be angry!" The last part he said as sarcastically as possible. I just rolled my eyes, pulling both hands free.
"Bring it on!" I growled.
IMPORTANT!
I hope you liked it! The wedding it comeing, a new car, the killer who we will soon find out who he is, and still school! Now I need your guys help on something, I need to find Jade a car. This probably wont be in the nest couple chapters but I want to have one ready. I need it to be a sportsy car, something fast. I was hoping for it to be a convertable too. So any sugesstions would be very helpful!
Now I know Im going to have alot of stuff going on in the next week and a half and probably the first week of school, so Im here to say I wont be updating for atlest a week and a half. I will type whenever possible but as it is, there wont be a new chapter for a wile. I am sorry but I want to be able to wright to my full potential without forgeting things I wanted to have and such.
