Sunday morning, Edward called Bella saying that we're going to play baseball. We, as in Bella and I, going to play baseball with a bunch of vampires. Yeah right more like we're going to be on the sideline watching them be all awesome. Morning was good, we ate breakfast with Charlie, Bella was getting frustrated with her clothes. And honestly, I found it rather amusing seeing Bella stress about what'll she wear. I mean the girl didn't act like a girly girly, she's more of a tomboy, and yet she's stressing over her clothes. I couldn't take it anymore so I helped her pick out her clothes, but she was going to tell Charlie that we're going with Edward. She groaned but accepted anyways.
Edward texted that he was almost here so Bella and I went downstairs to ask Charlie. We found him in the kitchen cleaning out his guns. Ohh this is going to be fun, I thought to myself. Bella went to get him another beer and I stood in the back, leaning on the kitchen wall.
"I have a date with Edward" Bella tells her dad.
At that moment I decided to take a picture of his face. Omg, I laughed at Charlie's shocked face, his face was priceless. This will make a good memory when we look back at our life.
"Who?" Charlie says, recovering from his shocked.
"Edward Cullen" Bella starts to say.
"Dr. Cullen's kid" I finished for her.
"Isn't he a little old for you?" Charlie asks Bella.
I laughed silently, he really doesn't know. Bella heard my laugh and send me a glare, telling me to shut up.
"No he's a junior and I'm a junior. He's right outside. He wants to meet you, officially." Bella says, silently praying for her dad to say yes. It was silent until he clears his throat.
"Well bring him in," he said clipping his gun into place. I was holding a laugh so bad. This moment I would bring up to both of them, forever!
"Please be good" Bella pleaded with her father. Charlie made a halo above his head as in saying he's an angel.
Bella goes to get Edward while I stay with Charlie. I was holding in my laugh, Charlie noticed me struggling and he glares at me. I hold up my hands in surrender and he cracks a smile. But his smile dies down when Edward came in with Bella.
"Hello Chief Swan, I'm Edward Cullen," Edward said.
He brings out his hand to shake Charlie's, but he doesn't shake it. I had to cover my mouth from laughing. Edwards puts his hand back and continues like nothing happen.
"Bella and Amelia won't be out too long. We'll be playing baseball with my family." Charlie looks relieved that Bella wasn't going alone.
"Amelia, you going? Why didn't you say so?" Charlie asks looking at me and I shrug.
"Wait, if you're going than that means you're dating one of the Cullens?"Charlie says narrowing his eyes at me. I laughed but stopped quickly.
"Charlie, the only single male in the group was Edward. Now that's he's dating Bella, there's no single person in their group. So no I'm not dating a Cullen nor am I dating someone outside the group." I tell him making him relieved. He nods and doesn't say anything, in fact, no one else say anything for a while.
"Alright well, this was lovely and all. But I think we should get going." I say looking at Edward. He nods and we start to head out. Charlie stopped Bella and me.
"You still have the pepper spray right?"Charlie asks Bella. Bella was speechless and I couldn't help it I laughed. I laughed at this whole awkward situation. Thank god I didn't have to go through all that.
~~ at the field~~
We got to the empty field, everyone was already here. I see all the couples with each other. When I saw Dr. Cullen and Esme I felt sad. I wanted to be the one Dr. Cullen looks at me with such love in eyes.
"Amelia you came," Alice says looking at us.
Alice comes and hugs me as we approach them. I laugh at her childlike actions. I nod and greeted everyone. For some odd reason, I had a bad feeling about this. It felt like deja vu. Like I'm forgetting something important, once again.
"You wanna play?" Jasper says with a smirk, fully knowing that I couldn't play vampire baseball. I stick out my tongue at him making them laugh and Dr. Cullen smile. Esme explains that Bella and I will be umpires, so we shouldn't pick sides. It was The Blondes vs The Brunnetts.
It game started once we hear the loud thunder. Rosalie was the first to bat and Bella called out. Rosalie glares at Bella, Dr. Cullen tells her 'nice kitty'. Rosalie looks over at me, I meowed and winked at her. We both laugh and she calms down a bit. It was Dr. Cullen turn to bat when he hit, Edward and Emmett both clashed together trying to get the ball. When the clashed together it sounded like lightning hitting the earth. Jasper was doing some tricks with his bat and I called him a show-off. He winked at me and did another trick before batting. When he batted, his ball went straight to the tree, making Emmett climb it like a monkey. Rose comes up next to me and calls him, her monkey man. We both stare at each other and laugh.
I laughed at Jasper when Bella called him out. He rolled his eyes and pouts. "Hey, you're supposed to be on my team. I'm your favorite, remember" He says making me laugh.
"No, I'm her favorite" Emmett yells for across the field, making us all laugh.
Rose went up to bat again, it was going well until Alice yells for them to stop. She was looking all scared. Edward came running to Bella's side, while Dr. Cullen came to mine.
"They were leaving but they heard us," Alice says looking at Carlisle and Edward.
I saw Edward holding Bella looking scared and angry. He was probably scared of losing her and angry that she was in danger. Carlisle was holding me tightly, almost as if he was scared he'll lose me. I look up to him and since he's way taller than me. I find him already staring down at me. His facial expression was calm yet his eyes told another story. They held so much emotions; sadness, hurt, worried, angry, and love? While Alice and Esme were helping Bella hid her scent, Rose gave me her hat and Carlisle gave me his scarf. Emmett and Jasper were in front of Carlisle and me, ready to protect us. My heart was beating really fast and im positive it wasn't helping the situation. Carlisle most of heard my heart beating crazy because he held me tighter to him.
"C-Carlisle what's wrong?" my voice was shaking.
He didn't say anything nor did he look at me. I looked over at Bella and she was scared. I gave her a small reassuring smile, telling her it was going to be okay. She was behind Esme and Edward. I was behind Carlisle, he was holding my hand.
Everyone stood in a line, watching the forest, waiting for the newcomers to arrive. Suddenly three new vampires stood in front of the Cullens and us two humans. They all had red eyes. They looked rather familiar, but I didn't know from where.
In the middle of the red-eye vampires, was an African male with dreadlocks. He was holding the ball that went to the forest. To his right stood a pale, light brown hair that he had in a low ponytail, red eye man. He was to busy staring at Edward to know what was going on. And to the left of dreadlocks was a beautiful fierce red hair lady. Her red hair matched her red eyes. She was staring at me, she was making feel even more scared. She stopped staring at when Carlisle hissed at her.
"I believe this belongs to you," dreadlock say, throwing the ball to Carlisle. He catches the ball eases.
"Thank you," Carlisle says.
"I'm Laurent, this is James" dreadlocks points at the pale man, whose busy staring at Edward, then he points to the redhead "and this is Victoria."
At that moment my heart stops and I become stiff. Omg, how could I be so freaken stupid? Of course, this is the moment when James becomes obsessed with Bella. I'm in panic mode, which wasn't feeling our situation any less. Carlisle held my hand tighter, reassuring me everything was going to be okay. But I knew better, I should have known better. I know what will happen. James won't stop until he gets Bella.
"I'm Carlisle and this is the rest of my family" Carlisle points to us, even Bella and I. I smiled a bit, he included us in his family.
"Hello" Laurent greets us, for a second we stared at each other but then he looked back at Carlisle.
"I'm afraid your hunting activities have caused some of a mess for us" Carlisle inform them.
"Our apologies, we didn't now that territory has already been claimed," Laurent says. I didn't like the way he said it. His red eyes roam over my body. I felt Carlisle stiffs and Jasper hisses at him.
"Yes, the territory has already been claimed," Carlisle says with a hard tone. I'm not too sure if they're still talking about the land anymore. This time I squeeze Carlisle, trying to calm him down a bit and it worked, somewhat.
"Besides we have a permeant resident nearby," Carlisle says a bit more relaxed than before.
The tension is raising really high. Everyone is staring at one another. Laurent's eyes would fall on my body, James and Edward are having their own little stare down, Victoria and Rosalie are glaring at each other, Bella and I are looking at each other, worrying for the other's safety.
"Oh really? Well, we won't be much problem now, we were just passing by" Laurent speaks up after a while.
"The humans were tracking us, but we lead then East. You should be safe." Victoria finally speaks up, giving us a fake smile.
"Excellent" Carlisle says with a tight smile. It goes silent once again. You can practically feel the heavy tension between these two different covens.
"Could you use three more players?" Laurent says, trying to break the tensions.
I couldn't help but feel like he's isn't such a good person. At his comment, the Cullens became on high alert. We all looked at Carlisle since he was the leader. We would do what he sees best for us.
"Sure, a few of us were leaving. You can take their place." Carlisle says and Laurent nods.
Carlisle turns to me, leans down and kisses my forehead. He back up looks at me and tells me that I'm going with Edward. I nod at him and give him a small smile, which he returns. Emmett throws the ball at them, but Victoria catches it.
"I'm the one with the wicked curve ball" she smirks at us.
"Oh, I think we can handle that," Jasper said trying to lighten up the mood.
It worked because they either laughed or smiled at his comment. I, on the other hand, didn't. I was worried about Carlisle staying here with the red eyes. They all start to go to their position, but the wind catches Bella's hair. The wind didn't catch mine because Carlisle was in front of me, blocking the wind. James stops and breathes in her scent.
"You brought a snack," James said staring at Bella.
He then starts to advance towards Bella but stops when Edward pushed her back. The Cullen's stood protectively in front of us. Since he nor the other two red eyes didn't catch my scent, I stood in front of Bella, pretending to be a vampire. I wanted to act like one, so they would only think there's only one human, instead of two. Carlisle must have known what I was playing at so he let me. But that didn't mean he liked it nor that he wasn't protecting me either.
"A human?" Laurent says in shocked. He glances at me, wondering if I was human as well.
"The girl is with us. I think it's best you leave." Carlisle says calmly. Laurent must have taken that as a confirmation, that only Bella was a vampire, not me.
"I can see the game is over, we'll leave now," Laurent says. He must have realized that they were no match for the Cullens. They were outnumbered and outmatched. He moved away from us. However, James doesn't make an effort in moving.
"James!" Laurent hisses. James moves away, going to Victoria and they leave us.
Once they left we all knew that they'll be back for her. Carlisle turns to look at me with an apologetic expression.
"Take them away," Carlisle says to Edward, still looking at me. I was going to argue but he shook his head. Silently telling me to obey, which I reluctantly did. With one last look I left with Edward.
