Chapter 12 "Wishful Thinking"

»Sophia's POV«

After school, Alec and I decided to go to the beach to relax. We used Isaac's silver Mercedes because neither of us has any mode of transportation yet.

Luckily, the beach wasn't very crowded except for a few families and couples here and there. The both of us walked to a secluded side of the beach by the forest and sat by a long log that has been taken down.

As I watch one family having fun on the beach, I felt jealous of them. The older brother was chasing the his sister around the shore as their parents lay down on the sand with amused faces.

I sighed. I know that I would never get what they have. A family. Although I'm just 18 and I'll be forever frozen at this age, I'm very fond of children especially those cute ones with dimples.

"What's the matter?" Alec's voice pulled me out of my jealous thoughts.

"Uh...nothing..." I replied.

Then I felt him poke the side of my body making me giggle.

"You can tell me you know." he said.

I shook my head, trying to hide a smile but failing miserably. He poked the side of my body again and again until it turned into a tickle fest.

"S-stop! I'm...n-not...telling...y-you!" I screamed, gasping for air. "I-idiot!"

"Now you're calling me an idiot?" he teased.

"Y-yes...I mean...N-no!" Then I laughed hysterically with tears forming in my eyes. "S-stop tickling m-me!"

"Not if you tell me what you're sighing about." he said.

"F-fine! I'll tell you!" I agreed. He finally stopped tickling me and now I'm trying to catch my breath. "You're an idiot, you know that?"

"Well, you're a pain in the ass." Alec retorted.

"Idiot."

"Stupid."

"Asshole."

"Bitch."

"Jerk."

"Beautiful." he said, smiling at me.

"Handsome." I said, grinning.

"Cute."

"Adorable."

"Adorable? Really?" Alec asked.

"Well..." I trailed off.

"Now tell me what you're upset about..." he said staring straight into my eyes making me blush and find my hands interesting all of a sudden.

My smile turned into a flat line on my mouth and my gaze returned to the children on the beach that are still playing.

"I...was just wondering...well, thinking actually..." I said.

"About..."

"I really, really love little kids." I continued in a hushed tone. "And...I'm...thinking that being born as part vampire...and now being a weird full one...took any oppurtunity for that to happen."

Silence.

I looked up at Alec who was now wearing a very grim expression.

He then composed himself and forced a small smile on his lips before pulling me into a hug.

"I-" Alec started to say before he was cut off my a loud growl and a stinking odor from afar.

"What the fudge cakes is that?!" I exclaimed, standing up from the log dragging Alec with me who is wearing a scowl on his face.

"Dogs..." he muttered then took hold of my hand before we ran in human speed away from the scent.

When we got to the side where no humans could see us, we sprinted in vampire speed to the house with those mutts hot on our tails.

But it seems that I'm not fast enough. One second I was running behind Alec and the next thing I knew, I was on the floor. Trapped by a russet colored wolf who is trying to bite my head off.

"Get away from me you stupid wolf!" I screamed and tried using my gift on it. It, kind of, worked because I lifted it about...2 feet from the ground. But I was instantly hit by another wolf. This time, it's fur was pitch black.

"Sophia!" I heard Alec shout my name.

"HELP!" I screamed again, my voice sounding like Aunt Alice's high pitched tone, while struggling to keep the two mutts away from me.

I heard a couple of grunts, growls and scratches before the over sized black dog was pulled away from me.

"Thank you..." I breathed out, still holding the russet colored wolf in the air. Then I started to panick again when I saw 4 more horse sized wolves running our way.

"Oh, shit." Alec muttered.

"Oh, shit indeed." I agreed before we took off on the opposite direction from the house because it seems that it's the direction where they're all coming from.

"We need to lose them somehow!" I told Alec. I took out my phone and dialed Mom's number.

"Sophia! Where are-" She started to yell but I cut her off.

"WE'RE BEING HUNTED DOWN BUT HUGE DOGS!" I shouted as I kept on running. I heard Alec chuckled beside me, causing me to send a death glare at him that made him stop smiling.

"What?!" Mom exclaimed. "How do they look?"

"Umm...there are 6 of them here. One has russet brown fur and one has...pitch black fur." I described.

"No..." Mom trailed off. Then I heard the phone being taken from mom.

"Sweetheart, I want you and Alec to run as fast as you can." Dad's voice said. "Go to the airport and wait for us there, okay?"

"Okay." I mumbled, my voice sounding like a scared little child.

"Alec, I know that you can hear me, please take care of my daughter." Dad told Alec.

"I will. With my own life." Alec replied.

"We gotta go now, darling. I'll see you later. We love you."

"Love you too, mom and dad." I said then hung up before sprinting to the direction of the airport. I turned to Alec. "Are you afraid of heights?"

"No, why?"

"Good." I smirked before lifting the both of us up into the air.

When we reached the airport, I was drained. My whole body is tired and Alec still has to put his arm around my waist to support me.

"You okay?" he asked as we waited outside the airport.

"Uh..." I mumbled before closing my eyes and giving in into slumber.

I slowly opened my eyes to see my mom's familiar golden eyes.

"Sophia..." she breathed out in relief. "Thank God you're awake."

I struggled to sit up to find myself in a very unfamiliar room. Last time I was at the airport and now I'm here?

"Where are we?" I whispered. "And how long have I been out?"

"You've been out for 2 days. And we're in Isle Esme in Brazil."

"2 days?!"

"Yes. We were all so worried about you when we saw you passed out in Alec's arms." Dad replied.

"Alec? Where is he?" I asked, looking around.

"He, Jane and Isaac went back to the Volturi to discuss...things." Mom assured me.

I nodded and plopped back down to the bed. I don't want to admit it but I'm still tired as hell.

"Bella, love, I think we should let Sophia rest." Dad said, obviously reading my thoughts. I sent him a grateful look. Mom nodded before she and dad went out of the room.

I layed down again and slept soundly.

A growl woke me up from unconsciousness. I instantly shot up only for my mouth to be covered by a large and very warm hand holding a cloth in front of me making me pass out. Again.

Okay. I hate myself right now for not uploading earlier but I have no internet connection and we were away on a holiday where there is no phone signal so I can't use my mobile internet.

Bleehhh... enough excuses. You guys probably hate me so much right now. Right? I'm really really really sorry! Forgive me please? :(

Anyways, I'm deciding to put this story to an end. Because I've got an idea for an ending. But I still don't know if I'll make a sequel and I still don't know how many chapters I'll post before the ending.

Okay, so yesterday I went to my cousin's 3rd birthday party at KFC. Then, I saw a very cute guy whom I've admired for so long now. I think he's the cousin of my cousin's mom. Anyhows, when I was walking down the stairs (in my heels), I saw him and he saw me. Like, we had eye-to-eye contact. And I swear that butterflies were flying in my stomach that exact moment. Ugh. I can't even...explain it!

Another thing, I just got a cold last night. A very awful one. My nose is running and my head slightly hurts. And I think I have diarrhea (if that's how you spell it).

Last night also, I watched Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief on DVD. And my favorit3 characted there is NOT Percy but Luke. He's evil I know but...he's...HOT! And I think he's the one who played Ian O'Shea in "The Host". Speaking of, I watched that movie and I was completely...mesmerized and I was bawling my eyes out. The Host is just so...beautiful! Team Ian and Wanda forever!

Until next time, cookies! :)
