I woke up confused, with blurry surroundings. I blinked a few times and my hazy vision returned to normal. I was in a hotel room, that much was obvious. It was bland aand boring, as most hotel rooms were.
"Alice? You okay?" Lyra called from the other room.
"Yeah Lyra, I'm fine. Can you come in here for a second?" I said softly, knowing she would hear me.
The door opened and showed the beautiful vampire smiling at me.
"Hey. Do you need anything?" she asked, sitting on the edge of my bed.
"I...has Jasper called?"
"No, I'm sorry. But Edward told me you love clothes so I went shopping and bought you these," she grinned, showing an enthusiasm that only Lyra could pull of.
She reached at the foot of the bed and lifted three bags.
Oh my God. The Dolce and Gabbana dress I wanted!! New Jimmy Choo's, Gucci jeans, Jior jacket and a Chanel shirt!
"Oh my God! Lyra, you didn't have to vget me all this!" I cried.
But, as much as I loved it all, I still felt numb inside. And I knew that's all I would feel until I had Jasper at my side again.
"Lyra...what do you think is happening?" I asked nervously.
"I don't know. They haven't called yet so I imagine things are going well," she replied.
"You'll always tell me the truth, right Lyra?" I wondered aloud.
"Of course I'll always be honest with you, Alice,"
"Then, tell me...how do you become a vampire?" I said nervously.
"Well, I think it would be better if I told you my story first. I don't want you to hate me if James tells you first," she said.
" Marisa and I were born in 1925. When Marisa and myself were 17, a boy moved to our hometown, Detroit. The one in Texas not Michigan. He was very handsome and soon I developed a crush on him. A few weeks after I met him he asked me out and soon we fell in love. We trusted and loved eachother so much that he decided to tell me his greatest secret. He was a vampire. When I found out, I was scared, so I ran. In his rage at my fear, he attacked me and, in realising what he had done, let the venom spread. That is how we become vampires. We bite and let the venom spread if we have enough control to stop. I was in agony for days and when the pain finally stopped, I realised what I had become. I wen tback to my family's home and found them all dead apart from Marisa. He had attacked my family too, but for soem unknown reason, let my sister change. That boy was James, Alice. Please believe that I don't love him anymore! I absolutley loathe him, especially now he's put you in danger! But, on with my story. When Marisa's transformation was complete, we both set out to find a better life than killing humans. Eventually we found the Denali's and their friend Eleazar told me that I had the power to see what emotions someone would have to another. Like I saw that you and Jasper would love eachother and I knew we would love eachother like sisters. We met jasper while we searched for the Cullens. After a few years, it was about 1950, we found them and you know the rest. That's basically me," Lyra sighed.
"Lyra, of course I don't blame you!" I cried, flinging my arms around her.
Her breathing hitched, probably at my scent, but she relaxed and hugged me back.
"Thanks Alice. You're my best friend, you know that?" she smiled, realeasing me.
"You're my best friend too Lyra," I grinned.
And it was true. Lyra had accepted me from the very beginning and even now, when her whole family was in danger because of me.
"You two alright in there?" emmett boomed from the other room.
"Yes, Em, We're fine," Lyra said in the direction of the door.
"You should call your Mom. Tell her you're alright," she told me.
"Yeah, you're right," reluctantly.
Just as Lyra closed the door, my cell rang.
"Hello?"
"Alice, Alice?" my sister's voice rang out from the other end.
There was something different, her voice was muffled slightly.
"Cynthia? Mom probably called you already, but I'm-"
"Now, I don't need to hurt your sister so do exactly as I say,"
A cool male voice said pleasantly.
I stayed quiet.
"Good girl. Now say ,'No Cynthia, stay there' . Say it now,"
"No Cynthia, stay there," i repeated, my voice shaking slightly.
"Are you alone? Just say yes or no,"
"Yes,"
"Can they hear you?"
"Yes,"
"Alright, i need you to get away from your friends, do you think you could do that for me?" the voice asked, still light and pleasant.
I thought for a moment. I couldn't let my sister die! But how could I get away from Emmett and Lyra? The airport was crowded, confusing...
"Excellent. You remember your father's address, correct?"
"yes,"
"I need you to go there. I expect I'll be seeing you soon Alice," the voice said smugly.
"Goodbye Cynthia. I love you too," I hung up quickly and left my room.
"How's your sister?" Emmett asked, strangely serious.
"She's worried sick but I think she'll be alright. I'm gonna have a shower now," I said, heading for the bathroom.
I turned the shower on and stripped of my clothes. I turned the water up to its highest and got in, ignoring the scalding water flowing down my back. A plan was forming in my head.
I washed my hair quickly and got out to complete part of my plan. I grabbed the pen that was beside the table and hotel stationary.
'Jasper' I began
'I am so sorry for doing this but I have to. James has my sister and I can't let him kill her! Don't blame Lyra or Emmett for any of this. I don't even think I'll manage to get away from them. Tell them thank you for everything . Jasper, I am begging you, don't go after him. That's what he wants and I will not allow you to sacrifice your life for me. And remember, I will always love you.
Forever your,
Alice
I folded the letter, hoping Jasper would get it. I put it i the envelope and changed into the clothes that Lyra had bought me. As I sealed the envelope, my heart sealed itself away too.
A/N: Hope that clears up Lyra's past for you guys! Okay, I'll be leaving tomorrow with my friends (including Frankie) so I'll try to post the next chapter in the morning but I have tons to do so don't count on it.
