Chapter 12: Insecurities
4 years later . . .
BPOV . . .
"Happy 100th birthday Sabrina" they shouted. So loud I thought my ears drums might burst. "Is this why you forced Addi to give me a spa day?" I questioned. "You guys know I hate surprises and parties." I said, but before I could get more out Ry said "Bri, sis! Listen, you gotta cool down a little. You're officially 100 years old. Wow that's old!" Smack! That's the sound sound we heard when Kiara's hand hit Ryder's head. "Ow! What was that for Kia?" He asked rubbing his head. "That was for being an insensitive fool!" She snapped back and came to hug me.
"We have been planning this forever." She said and then added "So, just enjoy it!" Oh no! What did they plan? "Ok, I'll enjoy it but it has to be reasonable." I said and they just smiled at me like I was crazy. "And What is this so called 'plan'? " I asked "Simple we're, taking a trip." said Addison. That had me even more confused and I think Payton understood from my expression. "Come on." He said "While all these crazy people talk among themselves, I'll explain everything to you." Payton turned to leave just as Ryder started to say "Hey! What do you mean 'Cra . . ." But it was completely cut off by the sound of kissing. Which I assume Kiara started to get Ryder to shut up.
Their relationship never ceased to amaze. They had the funniest one in the house. Whereas, Payton and Addison both kept to themselves. These thoughts soon led to my life for the past hundred years. We really had come closer like a family. They helped through everything and with all that we had our laughs and fights. Just like a family full of teenagers.
As I walked behind Payton to the family room, I felt some force on my shield and the only person I could think of that would do that is Addison. "Addi," I complained "Stop, please." I said "Please," she said, but gave the word two syllables so it came out sounding like 'puh - lease'. "Lighten up a little. 'Sides I was trying to help you practice your outside power anyway, not your inside one. If it was your inside one then you could complain." My 'outside power' was my shield which meant that when someone other than my family asked what my power was I told them I was a shield. My 'inside power' was my illusion power. I kept that one a secret. No one except my family knew about it. I had to keep one a secret so I would seem normal and not attract attention because of the Volturi. Payton told me they were always hungry for power. He said that he wasn't going to let any harm come to his family and he would do anything to protect them. That was the night I knew that I was officially part of the family.
As we all sat down in the living room I realized that everyone was looking at Payton, so I turned to look at him too. "Ok, Bri, I think I'll clear everything up for you." He said, gave everyone a stern look which said don't interrupt and then he looked back to me. "Here's the thing. Everyone had been bugging me take them somewhere, you know like a vacation, and ever since the realized that your birthday was close the bugging got worse and so I agreed." He stopped there and looked at the rest of the family, who looked they were going to pounce at him if he didn't start talking soon. "Now the fun part is that they don't know where I planned on taking them too. So, when I tell you they will find out as well" he said and stopped again.
After a few seconds of silence Addison screamed "Pay your not playing fair. Just tell us already." We all looked at her in shock. In all my time I don't think I have ever seen her scream like that. "What?!" She asked when she saw our stares. We all just shook our heads and turned back to Payton who was still staring at Addison. "Umm . . . Pay." Ryder said. "I think you might want to continue before your wife kills you." Payton gave his head the slightest of shakes and said. "Ok, umm . . . So I got a call from an old friend recently and when I asked him where I should take you guys he said that it has been almost a century since we have seen him and asked us to come down there for a few weeks. So what do ya say? Should we go?" He asked. "Pay," Addison said through clenched teeth. "You haven't told us who this friend is yet." She said "Oh yeah! It was Carlisle. Carlisle Cullen." He said normally.
My breathing stopped. I lived with these people for the past century and I didn't know that they were . . . That they were . . . They were friends with the Cullens.While I though of this I could hear Kiara scream of delight and Addison constant 'Yay's' of excitement. I could feel the whole in my chest starting to Rip open again. In the past I have thought about them but I never in a million years thought that I would meet them again. I couldn't do this. There was no way I could do this. Not even in a million years. I may be a vampire now and I may be a hundred years old but I knew that my love for Edward hasn't lessened a bit.
I took a deep breath and said "I don't want to go." That did it. The whole room fell silent and then I heard Kiara voice say "What?! Why?!" She asked. "Because . . . I don't know them and I . . . I don't want to spend our vacation getting to know new people." I said. "Oh, come on" Ry said. "It'll be fun. Trust me! They'll make you feel like family the second you walk through the door." He said, trying to reason with me but, I couldn't see reason anymore not when it came to this. "I have insecurity problems too. So . . ." I trailed off and then added "I'll be in my room."
As I slowly climbed the stairs, I could hear them talking down. "Ry, you go talk to her." I heard Kiara tell him "You connect to her best." "Yeah Ry you go. She'll love the Cullens I know it. She is just shy." Adi said. Little did she know that I already loved the cullen and that I still do. "Alright, alright I'll go." I heard Ryder say. By this time I was already in my room. I sat down on my make-up chair and started to comb my hair to calm my self and then I heard a soft Knock on my door. "C'mon in." I said trying to force my voice not shake. Ryder came in and stood behind me. He took the brush from my hands started to comb my hair for me.
"So, Bri about that trip, I . . ." I didn't even let him finish before I said "Don't try to reason with me because I am not going. And that's final." "But why? He asked me putting the brush down. "You haven't even met them yet." He told me. "Give them a chance. "Do you know that I haven't met them yet? I snapped at him. "You have?" He asked bewildered. "No, but I don't want to." I told him. He spun the chair around and looked me straight in the eye and said "What is it? What are you hiding?" I looked towards the door and he said "If your worried about them overhearing, don't worry. They left to give us some privacy." I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. Well this was it. I was going to spill my biggest secret.
I opened my eyes looked at him and said. "You remember I said that I wouldn't tell who . . . Umm . . Broke my heart?" I saw his jaw become strained and he said in a pained voice "Yes . . ." "Well I'll tell you now." I said and saw shock come across his face. He controlled his expression and then nodded. "It was . . . The . . . Cullens" I said and pushed him back so I could sit on the bed. "What?!" I heard him say. "How is that . . . How is that possible?Last time I checked all the Cullen men were takin. All except . . ." "Edward." I finished for him. "Ok that's it." He said in a strained voice. "I want the whole story now. I know that you might not want to tell me but I need to know." He told me. "I've known Carlisle and his family for a long time and I don't think they would do something like this." He added sadly.
For some reason that got to me. "You might have known them for a long time but trust me on this I know them more than anyone." I snapped at him. I couldn't take this anymore. I bit off more than I can chew. After all this time. I never knew that my past might came back to me. I just . . . I just couldn't take anymore. I fell apart right there, on the floor in front of my bed with my brother standing there and watching me but before I knew it I was in his arms while he kept saying stuff like "Hey, hey, hey! Bri! Cool down! Shhh! What's there to cry about? Come on your stronger than this." But that didnt I kept ignoring it and soon after he stopped talking and just rocked me while I cried. After I calmed down a little he moved me a little so that he could see into my eyes. "Bri I want the whole story, not leaving anything out. Ok?"
I just nodded and started my long story. I told him everything. Starting from the day I arrived in forks till the day hr and his family found me. I didn't leave out a single detail nor did I find the need to. He was my family and I trusted him. After listening to everything he said "Well, we got to think of something fast." He looked like he was calculating something in his mind. "What are you thinking?" I asked him then felt a pang of pain rip my chest open again. It was the same line that he asked me all the time. "I was thinking of a way that we can all win." What was he planning now? I thought but didn't say it out loud. Instead I said. "What do you mean?" I asked getting more and more confused by the minute. "We'll don't get mad, alright?" He said. "Why would I get mad?" I asked him. Now I was getting scared. What was he planning.
"Well you see everyone is really excited about going 'cuz they all really like the Cullen's and . . . Well I was thinking that I could . . . Umm convince you to use your power to disguise your self." He said, looking at me. "You want me to go there?" I asked him. "I can't believe it. After everything I told you, you still want me to come with you." I was . . . I didn't know how I felt. I was sad and letdown and disappointed all mixed with anger and irritation. "Really, Ryder? Did you not hear a word I just said?" I almost shouted at him. "Whoa! Calm down Bri! That's not what I meant. All I was saying was that you should use your power to change the way you look. I mean your an illusionist." He said again. "You want me to change the way I look?" I asked him slowly. "Yup! We could tell the others that it will help you with your insecurity problems." He told me. "But I still have to go there, right?" I asked.
"Well, Bri that's the point. You'll go to them and they won't even know your there. Problem solved, right?" What? but how was I going to deal with the pain of seeing them again? "I don't . . . I don't want to see them again. I just . . . I just can't" I said. "Hey, listen it will help you too." He said, trying to reason with me. "How?" I asked. "What would I get other than pain?" "You'll find out how you feel about them now and it will maybe help you to get past them." He said in a calm voice. Was he right? Would it help me? Can I bear seeing them again. Was it worth a try? "So, Bri. Are you coming with us?" I took a long deep breath and said "Alright, but . . ." But before I could finish he said in a rather loud voice I might add "Yes! Whoo-hoo!" I love ya Bri." I had to hit is hand to get his attention again. "I didn't finish!" I shouted at him. "Oh, sorry what were you saying?" He asked.
"I said I'll come but . . . You have to promise to be by my side and not slip up on front of edward. He can read your mind you know and . . . And you have to .
. . Have to convince Pay to let me change my look." I told him sternly. "Alright, alright chill. They'll be back in a few minutes. I'll tell 'em then." I nodded and headed downstairs. We came down just in time because at that moment Pay and the rest came in through the door. Ki rushed to Ry's side and said "Well?" Ryder looked at me and then everyone else and slowly said "She said she'll come." "Yay! I knew you would." Kiara said. "Addi, did you pack your things?" She said and nodded saying "We have to pack Bri's too" Kiara said "Yup,but I think Alice might throw them all out." I looked at Ryder silently asking him to do something about this.
"Wait, guys wait. There are a few . . . Conditions if we want Bri to come with us." Ryder said. "Conditions?" I heard Payton ask. "Well what kind of conditions?" Addison asked. "She said that because of her insecurity problem she wants to change her look with the help of her power and if she slips up she wants to come straight back home. Is everyone okay with those conditions?" Ryder asked, looking around at everyone. "No! Absolutely not. There is no way in hell that's going to happen." Payton yelled. "Why not?" Ryder asked. "Because . . . Because I respect Carlisle and I don't want him to think that my family doesn't." He said his voice getting lower. "If I slip, which I won't I'll explain everything and if he is kind like you say he is then he will understand." I said not wanting this to get more out of hand.
He seemed to be thinking and then finally with a sigh said "Fine but, you and Ryder take fullresponsibility for this." He told me. I just nodded in response. "So Bri, what is the 'new you' going to look like." Kiara asked me. "Well . . ." I said slowly. "I was hoping you would help me with that." "Yay!" She shouted. "Bri, upstairs! Addi you get some model magazines and Bri I thought I told you to go upstairs." God she was going crazy. "Ok, ok" I said and bounded up the stairs. While going up I overheard Pay telling Ryder that his girlfriend just hit crazy street. I was so going to use that one against him. I went in to Kiara's room and sat down on her bed. Ten minutes later Kiara matched into the room holding a bunch of make up and hair appliances and Addi was not far behind with magazines overflowing in he'd hands.
"Guys, all this isn't necessary" Ki looked at Me and said "You no talkie, only listen and doing." Then turned to Addi and pointed towards a spot on the table saying "There." Where Addi carefully placed all the magazines. Oh no! The torture begins. Kia went crazy the whole time. She kept making me change my hair color and then my features and my nails. After about two hours later she was done and when I looked in the mirror I looked flawless. I had blonde hair with hot pink and icy blue highlights and my hair reached till my mid-back in slightly wavy curls. My nails were long and painted a shade of black. Kia put me in a dark pink tank top with a swirly design in black on my back and black jeans. I looked pretty hot actually.
"Ok, now it's time to show off my masterpiece." Yay, I was being treated like a price of art. She pushed me down the stairs and into the living room where Ryder and Payton were playing some video game which included gun sounds and the constant 'Pow Pow' from both boys. Kia pushed me back out of sight from the boys and pranced they're way to switch off the TV and after she shushed their 'Hey's' and 'What was that for's' she said "Now presenting to you the new and improved Sabrina Parks." Loos like that was my cue to walk in. I entered the room just as she told. Walking 'in style'. She was standing by me literally jumping up and down. "So what do you guys think?" She asked them, but they were unable to answer because the were still staring at me. "I'll take that as an 'awesome'. " she said. I just laughed and nodded.
Addi came in the room then tugging a huge suitcase behind her. She took one look at the boys who were now regaining consciousness and gave us a large smile. "Well that's score one for us and zero for them." Addi said. "You got that right!" Kia said. While they said this I was eyeing the big suitcase. "Who's that for?" I asked, pointing at the suitcase. "For you, silly." Addi said. "Okay, if you guys are ready to go then we can leave." Came Payton's voice from behind us. "Sure, just one sec." I said, "They just have to change my suitcase and make it seem like I am going to a friends house and not to a fashion show where I am bringing all the models cloths." I told them my voice getting louder with each word. "Well, sorry sis' but we don't got time." Ry said. "Yeah, Ryder's right we gotta go." Payton said.
"You both are gonna pay for this." I told the girls in the back. "Don't worry about it. Just enjoy." They told me. "Yeah, yeah" I said and followed the boys to the car. "Okay," Pay said "Do you guys want to take two cars or one?" "Two." Was the immediate reply from all of us. "Fine, then me and Addi will take my car and Kia, Ry and Bri take Bri's car." There were a series of murmurs of 'fines' and 'sures'. Then we were all seated and ready to go. Unfortunately for me Ryder was driving my car but I could think about that. I had so much on my mind. I have no idea what to do about my current situation. "Ready?" Ryder asked me. "As ready as I can be." I repliedin an unsteady voice. "Don't worry, what's the worst that can happen?" Ryder said in that care-free tone of his. My breathing started to get faster just thinking about that. "Don't answer, and don't think about it, sweetie" Kia said. I just nodded and tried to calm myself by saying whatever happens this week will be for the best and I can handle everything now. No more weak little Bella.
TPOV . . .
"Hey T-dog! What's up?" God what is with this fool. "Emmett, how many times do I have to tell you not to call me T-Dog?"I asked him. Does he not get that I have a name, which is Tia. "Uhh . . . How many time have you told me so far?" He asked. What kind of question was that? "I don't know about two-million times." I said sarcastically, going to sit on the couch. "Okay, no what's two-million times ten?" He asked. Wow, for a vampire he could be a little dense. "Twenty-million ya bone-head." He just smiled at me and said "Well there you go. That's your answer. You have to tell me to stop calling you T-Dog twenty-million times." He told me like it was totally obvious. "And now to do something about you being mean to me . . . " He thought aloud.
"What do you mean?" I asked completely confused but instead of answering me he just shouted "Edward your girlfriend was being mean to me and called me a bone-head. Tell her not to, please." " Wow, real mature Emmett!" I said aloud but was thinking about something else. The word girlfriend. Don't get me wrong, I haven't changed into a pathetic insecure looser who wants more than that and stuff I just have my eyes on the prize, but in order to get what I want, I need to be married to the bronze-haired hottie. He said that he wasn't the kind of guy that believed in fun before marriage. Apparently everything below the neck was off limits until the honeymoon, and on top of that lately on all our outings and so called 'dates' I have been getting so many negative vibes, kind of like he wanted to break up with me. About three times I had to change them before he actually did break up with me. I have to do this fast otherwise I might loose my chance forever.
"Tia, don't be mean to Emmett and don't call him a bone-head." I heard Edward say in a bored voice as he approached us. He looked at Emmett and said "There you happy now Em." "How come you always make me look like the bad guy, Eddie?" Emmet said with a kid-ish pout on his face "'Cause you are the bad guy Emmy! I don't think Tia could do anything to you!" Edward said getting angrier by the minute. "Shut up, Eddie your always wrong." Emmett said and that did it - Edward blasted. "How many times do I have to tell you not to call me EDDIE!" He shouted at Emmett. Good luck with that Edward. I thought. I already been down that road. "How many times have you told me so far?" Emmett asked and that completely had Edward confused. "Why would I be counting Emmett"
Now that had Emmett flustered. "But, Tia was counting!" Emmett whined. "Ugh! I don't have time for this" Edward said turning to me. Wow! I could watch them argue all day. "I came here for a reason." I stood up and put my arms around his waist and said "Which is?" He looked down at me with a small smile and said "I wanted to know if you would go for a walk with me." He asked. "Sure. When are we going?" I asked. He was about to answer when we heard Carlisle say "Edward, come upstairs for a moment please." "Be ready, by the time I come down we'll leave right away." He said as he headed up the stairs. Great! Now I had to change his vibes again. God would he ever stop trying to break up with me? Maybe, the next time we go hunting together I could where something pretty. The blood will help in his emotions. Man, this was hard, but this guy is worth it.
EPOV . . .
As I headed up the stairs I said "Be ready, by the time I come down we'll leave right away." Once I reached the door to My Fathers Office I gave it two quick knocks and waited. Not that it was necessary I knock but I still found polite. I then heard Carlisle think Always a gentleman. You can come in Edward. I ignored the compliment and went inside. "You wanted to speak to me?" I said. "Yes, I was just about to leave to the hospital when I remembered something" he said then looked at the clock and said to him self "Oh my, I have to leave." "What was that you were going to tell me Carlisle?" I asked. "Do you remember the Parks?" He asked me.
I slowly nodded my assurance and he said "Well, they are coming for a visit. They'll be here today at around two o'clock. I wanted to ask you if you could inform the others." "Of course Carlisle. Is there anything else?" I asked "No,nothing else but could you just make sure your brothers behave themselves?" He asked me, his expression wary. I gave him one small smile and said "I'll do what I can." "Well that's all I can ask for." He said and stood up collecting his things to leave for the hospital. "Carlisle, me and Tia were planning on going out for a walk do you think that's ok or do you want me to stay back till the Parks arrive?" I asked. "Of course you can go. I should be back before two." I just nodded and headed out.
I was walking down the hallway when I was assaulted with a bunch of clothes. They were all girls clothes that too and they were coming from . . . Alice's room. "ALICE!" I shouted "Please tell me why I am BEING PELTED WITH CLOTHES" "Don't shout" Came Esme's voice from downstairs and i rolled my eyes saying in a low voice "Mothers will be mothers." "I heard that." Came earned voice again. Better be careful Edward. I thought to myself not wanting to risk talking aloud again. Just then Carlisle walked by on his way to work and I was still covered in girls clothes. He took one look at me then in Alice's direction, shook his head and said "Alice I want this cleaned up before the Parks arrive" "Oh! Carlisle why? I didn't tell them yet." I told him. "Umm . . . Oops! Gotta go!" He said and then he was downstairs and out the door in a flash.
A very happy, bouncy Alice blocked my way."Theparksarecomingwhydidntyoutellmethereissomu chtodoifyiuwouldhavetoldmebeforeiwouldhavedecorate dthehouseandwhydisntyoutellmebefore" she said while I was peeling clothes of me. "Alice, could you repeat what you said in . . . I don't know . . . Maybe English. Please." I told her. Man she could get really hyper sometimes. "God Edward! I said - The-parks-are-coming-why-didn't-you-tell-me-there- is-so-much-to-do-if-you-would-have-told-me-before- I-would-have-decorated-the-house-and-why-didn't-yo u-tell-me- before." "Wow, Alice your like a tiny ball of a lot of energy aren't ya?" I asked her.
She stuck her tongue out at me and I said "When are the Parks getting here?" "Uh . . . At two." I replied and a second later I was pinned to the ground by the tiny ball of energy. "TWO O'CLOCK! They'll be here at TWO O'CLOCK and its already Twelve - thirty. When am I going to have the time to buy new furniture?" She questioned looking at me. "Uh . . . Alice your not supposed to buy new furniture just because we have some guests." I told her while pushing her off me and standing up. "Oh go tell that to someone else Edward, because I'm not listening." She said and stood up and. stormed off. Well that's Alice for you. You should never tell her what to do, you'd just get in trouble.
I went downstairs and was met by a very very dressed up Tia. She was wearing one of those mini-dresses of hers and a scarf around her neck all in leopard print. "Tia," I started. "We're going for a walk not to a club." She frowned and said. "Do I look that bad?" Where did she come up with that. "No, Tia." I said going to put my arms around her. "You look wonderful, but it just that this outfit is not appropriate for where we are going." I told her. "And where is that?" She asked me "Too the waterfall. So, go put on some jeans, okay?" She nodded and headed up the stairs. I took a deep calming breath and sat on the couch. I would have a good fifteen minutes to myself now. She too that long to get dressed.
I hate this- dragging her along. My whole family know that I am not in love with Tia. I tried to get 'break-up' advice from my siblings but none of it helped. I just don't know how to do this. If my angel was here should know what to do. If my angel was I wouldn't even have to do this. Well, that's your own fault, Edward. What I wouldn't give to have her in my arms again. To hear her beautiful voice. To hold her and show the whole world that she is my Bella and that no one else can have her. It hurt. It really hurt and nothing could make the pain go away. Nothing but my Bella. I needed her so much but she was out of reach . . . Forever. I searched for her after her funeral. I refused to believe that she was dead. I looked at every corner of the earth for her. I knew she wasn't dead. I knew that she would be somewhere, probably needing some space or something.
I was away from my family for nearly ten years when I was searching for her. At the end I thought it has been so long she would have surly married and was happy. She might even had kids by that time. I never thought about that though. Just the thought that she had a life with someone that wasn't me pained me. Instead I lived in the memories for nearly fifty years. Playing them over and over again in my mind. Letting me see her face. I closed my eyes now and did the same. I just imagined that angelic face behind my eyelids and felt a small smile on my lips, but then I realized that there was something else on my lips. I opened my eyes to find Tia lips lightly pressing on mine.
I kissed her back for a moment just out of habit and trying not be rude and then said "Are you ready to go?" "Yep, we're going to the waterfall right?" "Yes, that's what I told you using it." The waterfall was a place where me and Tia went when we wanted to talk or relax. "But, we need to get back by two, because we have some guests coming." She looked at me and said " Oh, do I know them?" "No, they are some of Carlisle's old friends. In fact we haven't seen then in almost a century." "Oh, we'll I can't wait to meet them." She said excitedly and then started tugging at my arm saying "Now lets go!" She started out the door and I was close behind her.
"Hey, Eddie do ya wanna race to the falls." Tia asked me turning back. I let the name thing go . . . For now. "No, I rather just walk with you." I told her, but the truth was she was almost as fast as me and might even win . . . By a second. Which, I'm sure, would hurt my ego. "No unit just a sore looser." She taunted me. "Am not." I responded back. "Are too!" She said then started dancing around like a chicken. "Fine, lets race." I said and before I could give her time to register what I said I took off running. "Hey, Edward that was not fair." She said and starred running behind me trying to catch up. I soon reached the fall and went and sat down on a rock near the water. It was a beautiful water fall which, when touched the ground flowed into a river.
I hummed a slow tune which came into my mind while I waited for Tia. She didn't make me wait long. "Hey, Edward you just took off like that. How was I supposed to know that you were gonna say yes to the race and then that you would just take off like that?" She said. I laughed at her little ramble and she said "Edward it's not funny." "Yeah, sure what ever you say Tia." I said laughing some more. "Well your are gonna pay for that one!" She said in a menacing voice and before I could comprehend what she was going to do she pushed me in the water. "TIA!" I yelled in playful voice. "Now you're going to get it." In swift movements I got out of the water and stood behind her. Just as she was about to turn around I pushed her into the water and jumped in after her.
After a while we both got out and sat for a while on some rocks to dry off. We made small talk and sometimes we would get stuck in some uncomfortable silences. I chickened out for about four times now. God, I was such a coward sometimes. I have to do this. I can't just pretend to be happy for the rest of my life. It's not fair to her. I have to do this. "Tia . . ." I started "Yeah" she answered "I need to ta-" but before I could get the words out she "Edward hold that thought. Didn't you say that we need to be home at two?" "Yes, so?" I asked her. "Well, if you're interested the time now is two-thirty." She said "What?!" I said. I looked down at my watch and was surprised to see that it was indeed two-thirty. "Aw man. I promised Carlisle that I would be there in time. We need to get there now." I told her and took off running.
I heard Tia quickly shuffle to her feet and fall in step behind me. Soon enough she caught up to me and took my hand. The whole run took about ten minutes and when we neared the house we slowed into a jog and then a walk, so we'd seem normal. I could her the minds of my family and the parks too. They were all siting on the couch and chatting. We entered the house and realized that there was a new vampire with them, but that's not the only thing I realized. I also realized that I couldn't read her mind. Oh, isn't that just great.
BPOV . . .
The car ride was a long one. The whole ride Ry would see something stupid and make even stupider jokes about it and at about two hours in the ride me and Kia started to say 'Are we there yet?' In that really cute and annoying way of a kid. We kept repeating every five minutes until he got so irritated he turned the radio up high. Me and Kia just laughed for a while pitted him and shut up. We kept getting occasional calls from Pay just to check in and after two more painful hours we finally reached our destination. Ry parked in front right behind Pay. I saw that Addi was jumping up and down telling Pay to hurry up and unload the car already and Kia was just about doing the same with Ry, while I simply sat in the car trying to calm my self down.
Once Ry got all the bags he came to my side of the gave the window a quick rap and said "You've gotta come out now, sis." I nodded at him took a deep breath and stepped out of the car. "Hey, don't worry, sis. Everything is going to be fine I promise. I won't let you get hurt again." Ryder said with full sincerity in his voice. "Thank you." I whispered and placed a kiss on his cheek. He gave me a smile and walked forward and I was right behind him. This was it. I would see the Cullen's and him after a century. Oh my god! What have I gotten my self into. I can't to do this, but you have to. Besides they are not even going know its you.
I noticed that Esme still preferred that airy white color. The house was elegant, with full length glass windows on one side and a beautiful porch with a simple chair to rest in. There was a long garden on either side of the stairs which led to the porch. I then remembered that Esme likes doing gardening work As I was thinking this Payton was stumbling with all the bags Addi and Kia brought with them. Kia didn't have enough space in our car and Pay's car trunk was bigger thus leading him to carry all of Addi's and Kia's bags. You would think that having vampire strength would help but no. That's how many bags Kia and Addi apparently need.They quickly hurried to the front door and was about to give it a knock when it suddenly flew open and there stood the 'Little know-it-all pixie-like vampire', Alice.
Seeing her just made me realize how real this all was. Could I take it? After a hundred years. After having been through so much. It surprised me how much I actually wanted to go up and hug her and tell her how much I missed her, but I couldn't. While she hugged Kia and Addi she noticed Payton and said "Jazz, come here and please help Pay with the bags." He immediately flew to her side and gave her a kiss in her cheek saying "Sure." In the next moment he was by Pay and taking a few of the bags from him. I realized then I had missed him too. I was not very closed to him when I was a human but all the same I missed him. Forgetting about his little talent to sense my emotions I let myself think freely until I notice tht I was staring at him while thinking. I felt him shiver once and quickly looked at me. He eyes met mine and he looked confused.
I quickly looked away and saw that Esme was coming from around the house, doing more garden work I assumed noticing that she was writing gloves and was carrying a few tools. Don't be rude,Alice! I know it has been ages since you have seen them but that doesn't mean you keep them on the porch." I smiled, same old Esme, I thought to myself then quickly remembered Japer and controlled my self. Ryder took a step forward and was right by his side. I looked at my feet while we slowly walked in to the house. Ryder kept giving me side glances, each time wondering if I was okay. I, embarrassed at the looks I got once I entered the house, purposefully hid behind Ry.
Everyone sat down placing the bags at the side of the sofa, but I just stood there awkwardly by the arm if the sofa. "Sit, down dear." Esme's soft voice said. I gave her a smile and took a seat on the end of the sofa. "I'm Esme by the way and you are?" She asked me. "Sabrina." I answered shyly. I looked around the house a little and the only thing I could think to say was "You have a lovely home." Then suddenly I was hit with a strange seance of déjà vu. That was the same thing I said to her when I met her the first time. The time when he still wanted me. Still loved me. I suppressed my self from sighing while she thanked me for the compliment. Suddenly Alice bounced up from where she was talking with Tia and said. " Hi, Sabrina. I'm Alice. It's very nice to meet you." She said this was so much energy that I thought she would burst.
"Nice to meet you too Alice" I said slowly. Trying to ignore the small dagger in my heart when I said her name. I noticed Jasper give me a quick glance from the corner of my and so I quickly regained composure. Alice noticed that I was a little down but quickly started to 'introduce Japer to. She pointed where he was sitting with Pay and Ry. "That's my husband, Jasper over there." She sated and he greeted me with a nod which Isimply returned. Then she turned towards the staircase and said "The blonde is Rosalie and the big goof ball next Rosalie her is her husband Emmett." I looked there to see a very irritated glare and a warm smile. Oh, I really missed Emmett. The way he would always joke around and make fun of me, even though I hated it sometimes I still missed him.
"Guys, this is Sabrina." Emmett was the first that spoke and obviously he didn't think before he spoke, because then his next words wouldn't have been this. "Hey were you a witch before you turned into a vampire because your name is Sabrina and you have blonde hair and stuff. Like in that show 'Sabrina The Teenage Witch.' Oh can you do magic spells too?" I just looked at him, not able to say anything in shock. Same old Emmett I thought and simply said "Nice to meet you too. Emmett" I was about to speak with Rosalie when she shot me a glare and took a seat crossing her legs and grabbing a magazine. Alice sat next to me then and whispered. "Don't mind Rose, she'll warm up to you soon and Emmett is always like that. You'll get used to it soon." She said with a smile and then leaped up saying "Carlisle's home." Just as she said that he walked through the door.
He put his hospital bag down near the door and walked to where we all were sitting. Payton stood up and said "it's nice to see you again, Carlisle." "You to Payton" he said kindly. Then noticing me he asked "And who is this wonderful young lady?" "This is our sister Sabrina." Payton announced. "We'll it's nice to meet." "Yes, you to." I whispered only meeting his gaze for a moment. He then suddenly looked around and thought aloud "Where's Edward? I thought he said he would be home." The knife which I mentioned earlier was at full force and I felt stabbing pains at my chest. It was trying over and over again and I haven't even seen him yet. Just heard his name. I quickly looked at Jasper who was struggling not to make a sound of pain. He gave me a deep look of confusion and worry.
I looked away, trying to calm myself. Which worked a little. I turned my head completely just as Japer went outside through the back door for some fresh air as he told alice. Turning my head though, seemed to be the biggest mistake of my life because the sight I saw caused me enough pain to be on the verge of death. It was Edward holding hands with a girl and a smile on both of their faces heading this way.
Whoops! Cliff Hanger! Sorry but I just couldn't help myself. Sorry about the long wait for an update thought. I'll try to get the next update up whenever i can. My stupid laptop hates me I swear. I was happy that I had chapter 12 and 13 down and that's when it chose to break down. It took a while for it to get fixed. They erased everything on it and I was so stupid that I didn't take a back-up of my Fanfic Files. Anyway enough with the excuses. I hope you guys like this chapter. If you did please review. If you didn't please review. In either case just please review.
If you don't Review I'll tell edward that you hate sliver Volvos and we all now that, that won't end well. Hehehehe.
IMPORTANT: Does anyone know how I can upload chapters from the mobile version of Fanfiction. You guys will get update faster than.
P.S: Sorry for the errors I was too lazy to go over them and correct them!
Thanks, lots of love,
Saracullen.
