Disclaimer: I don't own the Twilight Saga. But I'm twisting it a little! lol.
Yo guys! I'm back! Sorry for the long update, I actually cut my finger using a cutter (ouch) so my typing was dead slow. Well, here you go guys---Chapter 13!! This chapter was inspired from the song called, "Already Gone" by Kelly Clarkson. It just fits the chapter. :)
13. MOVING
Renesmee Masen
"Are we---are we moving again?" My voice strained from asking it.
Mom stopped picking up the things and looked me straight in the eye.
"Yes, we're moving."
My eyes widened a little but I only have a second or two before composing my face. Moving? As in... you're going away? Like going to another freaking place? I stared at mom before relaxing a little from the tension. I took a deep breath and looked down before turning back to her.
"Is there a problem, sweetie?" Mom asked softly. Her eyes are careful and concern.
I don't know if whether I'm okay or not. This is such a strange feeling. "Um, yeah." I managed to say. "Why are we moving anyway?" I asked carefully, even though I already know what the reason is.
"I just... I want to stay away from them, I want you to stay away from them." She said in a serious voice. I looked at her with wide eyes. I actually don't have any problem in moving since I was a little girl but when I found out that we're moving from Alaska, I suddenly felt I want to whine so we can't move. What's wrong with me right now?
Oh shut it for a second. Pretend that you agreed to move. The conscience is back. And for once, I listened.
"Um, okay." I said. I took a deep breath. "When are we moving again?" I asked, my voice in a whisper. "And where are we moving?" I tried to act like that I was anxious and excited to get away from this place, but it's like I was forcing myself to do it.
"This Friday after school." Mom said simply. "But I never thought of a place yet, maybe you could suggest some places." My breath caught for a minute---only four days left. Wow, when I thought about that, I felt my chest tightened.
"Maybe later." I replied quickly. "So... I think I better go to my room now and... well... pack my stuffs." I said with a shrug. Mom nodded and her eyes are narrowing a bit. I bit my lip and just went to my room, hurrying. I threw my bag at the chair next to the TV and slumped my tired body on the bed and looked at the ceiling, thinking. Well for one reason, I will neversee those crazy bitches again. But also, I will never see the Cullens too. Mom will make sure of that. Whenever I thought of moving and the Cullens at the same time together, my mind goes crazy. I'm not yet ready to leave the place, and, surprisingly, the Cullens too. I think, before I knew that they were vampires, I've grown attach to them, especially Alice. What if they find out that we're going to leave? Would they stop us? And with Edward's mind reading thing, would he know where are we going? And follow us? I didn't understand his reaction at first when Mom rejected him a week ago--- because he just freaking left. I was grateful that he did, but now I was a little kind of regretting it. Actually, on my way to the house I had been thinking about them and Mom. Then I thought of what Alice had told me in the parking lot.
"You know, Edward loves your mother so much, that we even stopped him severaltimes to get in a plane to Italy." Alice had said, she had looked around, then her eyes had been blank. It must've been the whole seeing-the-future thing. I rolled my eyes on what Alice had said. I had snorted mentally, yeah right.
"Why would he go to Italy?" I had asked, not much interested because---- what do I even care?
Alice had looked at me strangely and curiously. She had cocked her head to the side, as if she were experimenting me. "You don't know what's in Italy?" Alice had asked. Now that has triggered my curiosity. I had shrugged while I had shook my head.
"Has your mother told you about The Volturi?" Alice had said. Volturi? That's a cool name and at the same time, creepy.
"No, she hasn't." I had told her.
I snapped out of it. I haven't asked mom about that yet. Well, I was but I was caught off guard on the whole moving thing. And if I ask her about The Volturi, she would be curious because she'll ask where did I get that? Alice didn't told me what is the Volturi because Mom is the one that's going to tell me. I don't have the guts to ask her that question, yet. Ugh! Alice could've just told me, well, I'm going to ask her tomorrow. I took a quick bath and changed into my pajamas, not bothering to eat food or hunt for blood. I was just so tired right now.
I snuggled into my comforter, letting unconciousness taking over me and started to dream.
In the dream, I was dreaming of my mother andthe Cullens. Well, it was a strange dream, in fact. But I think if youdreamed about it, it will not be strange to you. I was sitting at a grassy field, surrounded by different wild flowers. The sun's rays were glaring at my head, heating my hair up. The air was clean, and it was cold. The wind was moving slightly, ruffling my reddish brown hair a bit. I sighed and lied my back at the grass, my eyes closing from the glare of the sun. Then I heard a giggle. My eyes snapped open, and the sun's ray went immediately to my eyes and it hurts. I flinched at sat up, looking around. I blinked so that I could adjust my eyes from the brightness. The voice was familiar and I immediately knew that it came from my mother.
"Mom?" I called, looking at my back. No one answered. "Mom is that you?" No one answered again, just a giggle. I groaned, my patience gone now. I stood up from the grass and walked at the direction of the voice.
"Mom, I know you're in there. C'mon." I said, heading towards the dark trees, surrounding the meadow. Nothing. The silence was creeping me out.
"Hey, baby!" Thank God, I heard mom's voice but the voice was behind my back. I turned around and saw mom. I gasped when I saw that it wasn't just my mother, but also Edward freaking Cullen, my so-called father!
"Wha--what are you doing here?" I stuttered, my eyes focused on Edward's. Edward was smiling a little and my eyes dropped mom's hands---they were intertwined with his. My eyes widened.
"Um...?" I don't know where to start. Is this a bad or a good dream?
I woke up from a loud shut on my window. It was still dark but I think it's already dawn. I forgot to close the damn window. I sighed, and ran a hand through my hair. The dream was weird enough, but some part of me is wishing that it could come true. I lied back at my bed, turning around so that I could face away from the window. I sometimes thought about things like that, I sometimes wish that things could be like that from the very beginning. What if my father didn't left us? What if things have gone good and cool? There would be no drama and pain in our lives. I snuggled on my comforter and closed my eyes so that I could drift into sleep again.
There were no dreams again, and I was thankful for it, I don't want to start thinking about it all over again. This time I woke up from my alarm clock and I guess that I only slept for four hours because of the dream. After getting ready for school, I made my way downstairs, going to the kitchen to grab a bite. On my way there, I saw a bunch of boxes lined up at the living room---ready to be shift off on to some place. I sighed and shook my head.
"Hello, Mom." I greeted faintly as I saw her standing at the counter, looking at the window and her eyes were blank. I think she didn't notice my attendance as I walked inside the kitchen. I cleared my throat and that made her snap back. Her head snapped and she looked at me.
"Oh, hey. You're there. I didn't notice you enter." She told me, smiling a little. That was totally strange, she's a vampire! Her senses are more advance than mine so it's clearly that she knew that I have entered the room. That was weird for her. I forgot that I needed to eat so I looked at my wrist watch.
"Um... Mom do you have some snack that I can eat right now? I'm running a little late." I said quickly. Mom blushed but nodded.
"Sorry that I didn't make breakfast, I was just busy thinking and placing the things inside the box---"
"No. It's okay, Mom." I told her immediately. Mom nodded again and gave me my snack.
"Thanks, mom." I said and I kissed her cheek. "Bye, love you."
"Love you too, sweetie." She told me. I nodded and went for my car so that I could go to school. When I went to park my car at school, I was thinking about the whole moving thing again. Do the Cullens deserve to know that we're moving? Or worst, does Edward deserve to know about this? Well, for the first time in my life since I found out that he's my father--- I felt sorry for him. I don't know why but that's what I am feeling right now. I shoved my hands in the pockets of my jacket, making it warm. I looked up at the dark clouds and I felt another shudder. I went inside the school, making my way through the hallways. I bet Mom had already discuss the matter with the principal that we're moving. I happened to pass by Amanda and her group, talking to each other animatedly. I just wish that the secret hasn't been revealed yet.
When I walked into my first class and saw Alice. Her eyes were blank. I hesitated a little and went to seat at my chair which is next to hers. When I landed on my seat, I heard Alice gasped quickly. Then she looked at me with shock and pain in her eyes.
"You guys are... moving?" She screamed but kept her voice in a whisper. Her eyes were half-crazed at the moment. My eyes went wide. I thought she couldn't see me but---shit!---she could see my mother when I'm not around her. Oh. This is not good.
I kept a straight face and nodded. She can't tell it! "Yeah, we are." I told her. I tried to make it cold.
Alice's my mouth opened. "But... why?" She demanded, crossing her arms.
"I thought you knew. You're the psychic." I snapped at her. Even though I forgave her, it doesn't mean that I can't be a little bitch towards her.
Alice pursed her lips. "So you don't know what's the reason behind all of this?" She asked.
I shook my head. "Of course I know. I just... can't you block your mind or something when you meet your brother at the cafeteria later? Because I won't be at the cafeteria---I'll be outside the school, eating and reading."
Alice's hands shot forward so that she could stop me. "Okay, I promise. But I think they deserve to know this, you know? Especially my brother." I think she has been thinking of what I have been thinking minutes ago.
"I don't know Alice." I told her, panicking a little. "I think Mom doesn't want them to find out. Think about it, if we tell them about the moving thing, what do you think they will do, Alice? I think Edward's going to come at mom's house and begged on his knees so that she wouldn't go! What would mom react about this?!"
"Okay, okay. I can see your point there, my neic---Renesmee." I stopped and looked at her. Was she going to call me 'my neice'? I still haven't thought about that, but I think I would accept it right now. I narrowed my eyes at Alice and she just shrugged.
"So, where are you guys going?" Alice asked. Oh right. Mom hasn't been thinking about it yet. She told me that I'm the one that's going to pick where will we go.
I shurgged. "Dunno. Still haven't decided." I murmured.
I heard Alice sighed. "Only three days left."
Alice Cullen
The bell rang and it's time for lunch. I wonder if Renesmee isreally spending her lunch time outside, like on the day we talked about something. I carried my books and met Jasper at the hallway. His arm was extended and I passed him my books---he was such a gentleman, like Edward---and he extended his other arm... for me. I murmured a thanks and we went to the cafeteria. Once I entered the cafeteria, I thought about the magazines full of tips on fashion and all that. Renesmee was nowhere to be seen at the cafeteria, she really wanted to have some peace. Jasper and I went to our usual table, Edward, Emmett and Rosalie were already there. There are five trays already at the table, and it was already set. When we reached there I immediately thought of something to distract me.
Gosh, when will I go to Paris, again?
Now that's just lame, Alice. Then another one.
Ooh, I heard some movie called "Jennifer's Body". Students are talking about it, especially the boys. Hmm. Maybe I could watch the movie alone or something.
Well, actually, the student's have not been talking about it... yet. It's just a vision. Well, need more trivia.
I hopped off the plane at LAX with a dream and my cardigan
Welcome to the land of fame, excess, whoa am I gotta fit in?
Jumped in the cab, here I am for the first time
Look to my right, and I see the Hollywood sign
This is all so crazy, everybody seems so famous
My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda homesick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
That's when the taxi man turned on the radio
And the Jay-Z song was on
And the Jay-Z song was on
And the Jay-Z song was on
So I put my hands up, they're playin' my song
The butterflies fly away
I'm noddin' my head like "Yeah!"
Movin' my hips like "Yeah!"
Got my hands up, they're playin' my song
And now I'm gonna be okay
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Well that was weird. I just listened to that song one time and I already memorized half of it. Well, the song is catchy.
What kind of color will I wear tomorrow for my jacket?
Oooh! I heard that Jason Vent had a HUGE crush on Melissa Cardigan.
Shoot! Is it really true that Daniel Lavendar is GAY?!
I heard this pretty cool joke from TV. It was off the hook.
Shit! What did I forget today?
Oopsie, exams are two months away, gotta study. Especially in Mathematics.
Now that's way overboard. I saw Edward's eyes narrowed at me and I think that his suspecting me. I smirked at him and launched the rest of the song of "Party in the USA".
Get to the club in my taxi cab
Everybody's lookin' at me now
Like "Who's that chick that's rockin' kicks
She's gotta be from out of town"
So hard with my girls not around me
It's definitely not a Nashville party
'Cause all I see are stilettos
I guess I never got the memo
My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda homesick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
That's when the DJ dropped my favorite tune
And the Britney song was on
And the Britney song was on
And the Britney song was on
So I put my hands up, they're playin' my song
The butterflies fly away
I'm noddin' my head like "Yeah!"
Movin' my hips like "Yeah!"
Got my hands up, they're playin' my song
And now I'm gonna be okay
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Feel like hoppin' on a flight, on a flight
Back to my hometown tonight, town tonight
Something stops me every time, every time
The DJ plays my song and I feel alright
So I put my hands up, they're playin' my song
The butterflies fly away
I'm noddin' my head like "Yeah!"
Movin' my hips like "Yeah!"
Got my hands up, they're playin' my song
And now I'm gonna be okay
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
So I put my hands up, they're playin' my song
The butterflies fly away
I'm noddin' my head like "Yeah!"
Movin' my hips like "Yeah!"
Got my hands up, they're playin' my song
And now I'm gonna be okay
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Yeah! It's a party in the USA!
Edward groaned in irritation and I chuckled a little. This is REALLY fun!
Baby are you down down down down down,
Down, Down,
Even if the sky is falling down,
Down, down
Ooh (ohhh)
You oughta know, tonight is the night to let it go,

So leave it behind 'cause we, have a night to get away,
So come on and fly with me, as we make our great escape.

You'll be my only, no need to worry,
Baby are you down down down down down,
Down, Down,
Baby are you down down down down down,
Down, Down,
Even if the sky is falling down
"Alice," I heard Edward complained. "Can you please stop that." He hissed. I smiled at him innocently and just shrugged. Edward groaned again and slammed his head on the table gently. I was thinking about trivial things again when I saw Edward's head snapped at me.
"Alice," He told me sharply. "What are you hiding from me?"
"What am I hiding from you Edward?" I asked, faking my voice a little.
"I know that. Every time you think about something annoying or too many things, it means that you're hiding something." Edward explained. Emmett, Rosalie and Jasper looked at us with narrowed eyes.
"What are you hiding little sis?" Emmett asked, twirling the bottle of lemonade in his hands.
I shrugged. "Nothing. I was just thinking about songs. I'm not hiding anything." I told him but looking at Edward directly.
"You're lying." Edward accused. My annoyance was getting higher but Jasper was there to calm things between us.
"I am not." I told him. "Just let it go. It's none of your business anyway."
"So it is. You're hiding something." Edward spat.
"Woah, woah, wait there, Edward. We already passed 'the-Laurent-stage'. We don't want it to happen again." Emmett joined, putting his arms at the space between me and Edward, incase if he decided to attack me or something. I rolled my eyes at the idea.
Edward glared at me. "I just hate people keeping things from me," He muttered.
Renesmee Masen
The bell rang and I immediately went to Biology class, hoping that Edward was still not there. Well, now the moment of truth. I gotta keep my head busy. I sat at our table and placed my Biology book on the table, flipping on the pages until I'm on our latest topic in Biology. Our teacher appeared and sat at the front table. A few students started entering the class and one of them is Edward.
I took a deep breath as Edward sat right next to me. When class started, I saw from the corner of my eye that Edward kept looking at me. When I tried to look back at him, his head will snap back at the teacher. I wonder what will he do when we---
Think of something Renesmee!
Shoot, I almost thought about... that.
Edward stared at me with wide eyes before his eyes shifting into narrowing eyes. I focused back on the teacher, and I couldn't concentrate on what she's saying. When the teacher turned her back on us and told us to write on what she's writing on the board. I dug out my notebook and started to take notes.
Then something appeared beside my notebook---a piece of paper. I looked at Edward from the corner of my eye and he was looking down at his notebook while writing the notes. I looked back at the paper and fold it, hesitating a little.
I saw the most beautiful handwriting ever. It was elegant and mastered.
Can I talk to you after school?
Edward
I was confused, what would he talk about? I sighed and grabbed my pen. There was a space under the paragraph and I wrote something there.
Sure. Just make it quickly. Then I passed the note back to him. In a blur, I suppose that my eyes have missed it, Edward smiled a little. Weird enough. But that's what he looks like at my dream---
I looked back at the board and began writing the notes.
----------------------
I walked outside the school and immediately spotting Edward beside my car. I was beginning to get nervous again as I walked up to him. Edward his poker face again and that scared me a little.
"What is it?" I asked, crossing my arms across my chest.
Edward sighed. "Can you tell me what are you hiding?" My eyes went wide but controlled my expression for a second. I shook my head stubbornly.
"I have no idea on what are you saying." I told him. Edward glared at me.
"I know that you're hiding something. Even Alice is hiding something. And I won't let you walk or get inside your car until you tell me what is it." He said sternly, almost like a father scolding his kid that had sneaked up on some Rated R movie.
I tried not to rolled my eyes. You wouldn't do that. If you did, Mom will be furious if I didn't come home.
Edward shook his head and relaxed a bit. "Can you please just tell me?" He demanded, crossing his arms too. I looked at his eyes and they were pleading and in pain.
Should I tell him, now? What if...? Ugh! I really can't think straight right now. Why would this be the time? Will mom get angry at me? Damn it!
But, Mom didn't told me on not to tell them. But she knew that I won't do it. This is all confusing. Okay, since we have only three days left, what will be the worst thing that's going to happen? They'll eventually found about it in Friday, and it will still be the same.
Okay. We're moving. I thought. Edward's eyes were wide and his eyes were in much pain. If you're going to ask why, I wouldn't tell you. And I think you already know that answer to that.
We didn't speak for a moment and I wonder why didn't I went inside the car right now. Edward nodded glumly. And when I saw that, I felt my heart stop, I couldn't breathe and I felt my chest tightened. Am I actually feeling this right now?
I'm sorry, okay? It's just... it's not my choice and it's not my business. It's all between you and mom. And I'm not asking you to go to the house right now and beg her not to go---I'm just saying that, well actually I don't understand what's happening with me right now. I'm just sorry. Very sorry. I thought. And if you want to ask more questions, just ask Alice. I went to the driver's side of the car and when I looked back, Edward was gone.
Wow, that must've been hard for him. Very hard.
I went inside the car and started up the engine, pulling the car away from the lot and going straight to home. Tears were falling down from my eyes. I was shocked that I was crying because we're going to leave him. But I have no other choice. I just wanted to be a good girl to mom. But I'm not a good girl to my father.
Father. My Father.
What kind of daughter was I, anyway?
A/N: So I lied. There's an update this week because????? I sneaked into the computer and finished this chapter! :) Besides, the exams are still tomorrow.
