RECAP!
~Edward swept me off my feet... Literally.
He picked me up and started carrying me bridal style. I blushed. Edward looked down at me and smirks. Edward starts jogging forward.
"We're almost there, and no doubt Alice is worried." He tells me.
"Yeah." I say. "I'm definitely going to get a lecture. I'm not sure if from Alice, Rose, or from both of them. They're going to kill me though. I don't know about Emmett."
"Nah, Emmett will just probably watch. But don't worry. I'll protect you."
I had to turn my head away from him, knowing my face would be as read as a tomato.
"Ahem."
Chapter Fourteen! :)
Bella POV
If I thought my face couldn't get any redder, I was wrong. Some day, I swear, my face will stay red.
"And what are you two doing?" Alice asks, a smile playing on her lips.
"I-I-I-" I stutter. I can't find the words to explain.
"We had some problems." Edward answerd. Thank you. "Bella is what you would call a klutz." Oh god. My face will never change back to it's original color.
Alice laughed. "Tell me something I don't know."
I struggled to get out of Edwards arms. I got out of them (sadly) and lost my balance for a second. Edward lunged forward to grab me before I fell, but I caught a telephone pole. I put most of my weight on my right leg, seeing as my left leg was unable to work at the moment.
"See." I turn to Edward. "Perfectly fine." And with that, I limped my way inside the restaurant. I could practically see Edward and Alice watch me with one eyebrow raised.
A waitress walks up to me. "Hello." She says looking behind me. I turn around and see Edward and Alice. "Is there anything I can do for you?" The waitress asks, looking Edward up and down. She was practically taking his clothes off with her eyes.
"Yeah, hey, over here." Alice says, snapping her fingers in the waitress's face to get her attention. "And no. We don't need any sort of help from you."
Alice grabs my wrist and Edwards and pulls us towards -where I am assuming- the rest of the Cullens are. A slight blush started spreading over Edwards face.
"Bellsy!" Emmett cries out when he sees us. I notice that Jasper is still MIA. People start to stare at us.
"Emmy!" I call out, recalling the nickname I gave him in Math.
The Cullens laugh. Emmett stares at me, then loudly adds "Emmett is not amused." I snort out with laughter.
I limp to a empty seat and sit down. "So, Bella" Rose says. "What have you been doing for the past, I don't know, TWO AND A HALF HOURS?" I winced as she screamed.
Everyone else sat down.
"I got lost... and then there was some... complictaions." I answer.
"But why couldn't I see your future?" Alice asks. Everyone nodded along, looking equaly confused.
I shrug. "I honestly have no idea."
"Well, what were you doing?" Emmett asked.
I looked at Edward, but he wouldn't look back. I don't know if I should tell them the truth or not. If I told them that I was attacked, they would definitely freak out. Plus, I did not need a twenty four hour watch dog.
I decided to tell them the truth... to an extant. "I met up with Jake and we started talking. I forgot about the time, and I forgot to call you. I'm sorry."
"It's m'kay." Emmett says, leaning back in his chair.
There was an akward silence after that. Until Emmett decided to tell some really, really bad knock-knock jokes. Which got really annoying, really fast.
"Guys," I say, examining palms. "I'm going to try to get some pebbles out of my hands."
"What happened?" Rose asks, leaning across the table to see.
I hold up my hands to show her them. Rosalie winced when she saw the stones lodged into my palm. She nodds and waves me away.
I hobble my way to the bathroom, cringing when I landed on my ankle wrong. As I walk into the girls bathroom, (There was no one else in the bathroom.) I noticed that it had a strong scent of baby vomit. I scrunch up my nose and look at myself in the mirror.
Just like I thought, there was no huge bump on forehead. But it was alittle pink. It would only look like I was blushing. (Which seemed to be the only thing I've been doing lately.)
I pick out the largest pebble in my skin. It stung a little bit, but slowly went away.
"Bella!" I look into the mirror, expecting to see Rose's or Alice's reflection, but instead I saw someone I didn't expect to see.
"Clara?"
She gives me a toothy grin. "Yep."
Thinking back to when I last saw Clara at the airport she didn't look any different. But then again, what five and a half year olds change much in a week.
I didn't even notice her mother walk in with her at first. But when I see her, I observe that Clara and her mom look exactly alike. Clara was basically a mini me.
Clara runs up to me and hugs my waist. I wince.
"Is something wrong?" Clara's mother asks, worried. "I'm a doctor, if it's something metically."
"Oh, um, it's nothing bad or anything." Clara backs away and looks at me. "I just fell. And... you know." I held up my hands as an explanation.
Clara makes a face. "Mommy, you gotta fix her!"
Mrs. Murray (A/N Let's just say that's Clara's and her family's last name. It's getting really annoying writing 'Clara's mom' over and over. :P) smiles sweetly at her daughter. "I'll try my best sweetheart."
She pulls out a pair of tweezers out of her purse, that she keeps 'in case of an emergancy'. Mrs. Murray begins plucking all the little rocks, one by one.
"Anything else?" She asks once she is done with my palms.
"Um, n-no." I lie. I didn't want to waste her time, when she could be spending it eating dinner with her family.
"What else, Bella?" Mrs. Murray asks sternly.
I sigh, "I twisted my ankle."
She examines my ankle. Clara walks up to me and looks like she's trying to say something but can't think of the words.
Clara's mother straightens up. "Nothing serious. Just needs some ice." I nod. I already knew this. "Would you like me to see if I can get some out of the kitchen?"
I nod again, and she leaves the bathroom. As I go to follow her, Clara grabs the hem of my shirt.
"Bella." She whispers, looking down at her feet. "There's something I need to tell you."
"What is it Clara?"
"I'm special too." She looks up through her eyelashes.
I was dumbfounded. "Huh?"
"Well, I can talk to animals and I can kinda control the ground and plants and stuff." Clara rambles on. "It's kinda cool. My fish, Sharky, will talk to me all-" Clara's mom runs into the room with a bag of ice in her hand. She looked close to tears.
"Clara! What did we tell you about telling people about thi-"
"Mrs. Murray." I say calmly. "It's fine. I'm uh, special, like Clara."
"Really?" Tears started dripping down her cheeks.
I twist my wrist to the right and the paper towel started rolling off the rack. Nothing too big. I became nervous when Mrs. Murray eyes widden and her jaw dropped.
Then she squealed like a twelve year old would, and gave me a hug. "That is so awesome!" I definitely was not expecting that. Clara laughed at her mother. Clara's mom jumped back. "Sorry. I just find stuff along the lines of supenatural so fascinating." She smiles. "But I'm so worried for Clara, though. 'Cause she won't know how to control her powers and-"
I cut her off again. "Sorry for cutting you off. But the school I've been going to really has helped me so far." I tell her. "Do you have a peice of paper and a pen?"
Mrs. Murray reaches into her bag of mysteries and pulls out a small notebook and a pen. I take it from her. I wrote down Carlisle's number. I wasn't positive if that was actually his number, so I wrote down my number to my new cell phone.
"Call this number and ask for Carlisle Cullen." I say, pointing to the number I wrote. "If it's not him, call this number," I point to my cell number. "And I'll get him for you."
"Thank you, Bella." Mrs. Murray gave me another hug.
"Bye Bella!" Clara gives me a quick hug.
"Come on Clara, Nana and Grandpa are waiting." Mrs. Murray hands me the bag of ice and then they were gone.
Seeing Clara with her mother gave me a queasy feeling in my stomach. Don't get me wrong, I was happy to see them. It's just... I wished my mom was like Clara's mom.
Taking in a shaky breath, I exited the bathroom. I sit down at my seat, across from Edward and in between Rosalie and a empty seat. Which is where Jasper is probably going to sit, since Alice is on the other side of the chair. I place the bag o' ice on my throbbing ankle.
"Where did you get that?" Edward asks.
I shrug. "Just..." I sigh. "A friend, I guess you could say." He raises an eyebrow but doesn't continue with the questions.
"Eddy!" I probably jumped a foot in the air when someone screamed. I think I even let out a little yelp.
"Holy shit! Was that a banshee?" Emmett asks, stating my exact thoughts.
Tanya struts up to our table. "Yeah, fuck you too, Emmett." I groan and put my head in my hands.
There is only so much that a girl can handle.
"Who invited the bitch?" Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Rosalie almost barring her teeth in disgust.
"Edward," Alice hissed. "I thought we agreed on a family dinner tonight."
Tanya snickered. "Then what is Bella the Bitch doing here?" I was about to interrupt, but decided on not, putting my head back in my hands. Even if I was going to, Tanya wouldn't have left any time for me. "You might as well call me a Cullen. Seeing as I will be joing the family soon." Tanya sat down next to Eddy and stroked his arm, with the emotion that seemed to be loving. I didn't know things like her were capable of having emotions. Edward seemed repulsed by this.
"Just to let you know, Tanya," Alice hissed. "Bella is more family to us then you will EVER be."
I am getting the worst headache ever. I took a sip of my water, blocking out the rest of this lovely conversation. I almost didn't notice Jasper walk in.
"Jazz!" Alice smiles at her boyfriend. She jumps up and sqeezes him.
"Alice." Jasper smiles back at her. "Will you sit down? There is something I have to ask you."
Alice sits down and watches him, curiously. Her face went blank for a few seconds and then back to normal. She frowned. My guess is that she is trying to see the future- to see what is going on.
"Alice. You know that I love you with all my heart. And there is no one I will love as much as you, ever." He takes a deep breath and reaches in his coat pocket and gets onto one knee. Alice's eyes widen as she sees it. I move in my seat, to get a better view of it. I gasp when I see a small black velvet box.
The kind of box that you would put a ring into.
An engagement ring.
Oh sweet jesus.
Okay, so how was this chapter? I updated this really fast huh? :) It's been about twelve days. I would have had it up earlier, but I 'Broke' the computer. (I tripped over a wire and unplogged a cord. I couldn't find where to plug it back in.)
And for the last chapter the total amount of reviews I got was... *counts it 'cause it was such a big number* TWO!... Seriously guys? -_- I love my reviews! I pratically live off them. I'm a review whore! Please, please, pleeeaaaaseee review.
I really really really want to post a different story on here. But I told myself I wouldn't until I finished this one. Whatcha thinK? Should I? (It would be like, Harry Potter, Darkest Powers... Maybe another Twilight)
That is all.
