Chapter 25
The alarm on my phone went off and I quickly reached to turn it off. I got out of bed and jumped in the shower, the cold water woke me up and I felt a lot better. As I opened the door Jake was waiting to jump in the shower too. He kissed me before closing the bathroom door. After I blow dried my hair and got changed into a purple top, white jeans and purple shoes. Jake had already gotten dressed. I opened the door and went down a flight of stairs to find Emmett ease dropping on Mum and Dad.
"Shhhh" he said with his finger on his mouth
"EMMETT IF YOU WANNA EASE DROP ON MY MUM AND DAD THEN MAYBE YOU SHOULD STICK YOUR FACE CLOSER TO THE DOOR" I shouted all over the house
He give me a death look and Dad opened his bedroom door immediately.
"Emmett!!, get a life!!" Dad fumed
"I do its listening to yours, and of course doing other things" he said looking over to Rosalie
Mum came out and hit Emmett on the back of the head
"OUCH!" he shouted
"Don't do these things if you can't take in what you dish out!" Mum squealed before marching downstairs with Dad behind her
"Thanks a lot, Nessie" Emmett said looking at me "Your not my favourite niece anymore" he said folding his arms
"Your welcome!" I said in a high tone "I'm your only niece Emmett, so I kinda have to be your favourite" I said laughing
When we all arrived at school Carly came over to me straight away
"Nessie, are you okay? you didn't look so good last night" she said sounding really concerned
"Yeah, I'm fine now" I said smiling
"That's good, you had me really worried" she said relaxing
"Sorry" I said as the bell went
I had History first class today, Dad and Alice were beside me as we walked through the doors.
Lucas was smirking as we entered the classroom. Dad growled a bit under his breath as we sat down. Alice was at one side of me and Dad at the other, Mrs Gerald's walked into the classroom.
"Okay class over the next few lessons, we will be focusing about the second world war" she announces while sighs filled the room
"I don't understand why they teach these things, I mean some of us where here when it happened" Dad said
"Yeah, but nobody else knows that now do they?" I asked sarcastically
He rolled his eyes before his face turned to stone, he didn't move an inch.
"Edward?" Alice said moving her hands in front of Dad's face
I searched to see what he was looking at and I found it, he was looking at Lucas who had his eyes fixed on me. Dad's or Lucas' eyes didn't move throughout the lesson and when the bell finally went Dad took my arm and dragged me out of the classroom with Alice following behind us.
"Dad, let go" I whispered to him
"Come on, we need to get to the others fast" he said with seriousness in his voice
"What why?" I asked as we met up with the others, he let my arm go
"Edward what's wrong?" Jasper asked
"I can't read Lucas's mind" Dad said in a low tone
"What!" we all said with wide eyes
"He is a shield?" Mum asked confused
"I'm not sure. It was different from how I can't read your mind" he said looking at Mum
"Different?, different how?" Emmett asked
"It was like I could read his mind but he wasn't letting me, like he could control it" Dad said trying to explain
"What if he can do that with everyones powers you know, control them?" Jake asked
"If he can then he is definetly not just a human" Dad said
"Yeah, but he has a heartbeat and he blushes" Alice said "You don't think he is...." she said looking at me
"No, if he was half and half we would have noticed from the start" Dad said shaking his head
'Well has anyone else have any classes with him today?" Alice asked
"I have Calculus with him, last" Jasper said then my face just dropped
"This is just perfect, I have that too" I said sighing
"Trust me, he won't come near you" Jasper said "Not if I can control his emotions"
The bell went and me, Jake, Rosalie and Mum all had Technology together, so we made our way to that class. Our assignmeant was to make something close to our heart, so I already new what I was making. When we had all finished our assignments we had to present them to a class, Rosalie went next. She held up her project and it was in a shape of a monkey, I kinda figured it would be that because she calls Emmett her "Monkey Man" for some reason.
"Rosalie, please explain to the class why you chose to do your project on a monkey" Mr Samuels said
"Well, there is a person that is very close to me and that person reminds me of a monkey because monkeys are cute, flexible and most of all they can really grow on you. They never judge you or want to see you hurt, and when you really need them they are always there for you, even when they need a good banana or two." She said explaining as me, Jake and Mum all chuckled as we were the only ones who understood what she was saying and the meaning behind it.
"Okay, Nessie would you like to go next?" he asked, I'm glad he has catched on to my nick name
"Sure" I said getting up of my seat
"You have made a dog for your project, why would that be?" he asked when I revealed my assignment to the class
"I have made a "Dog" because when I am ever sad or upset that dog would always cheer me up or when I am lonely he would always keep me company. My dog makes me smile and he is the highlight of my day just seeing those big brown eyes and the brown fur that I can cuddle up too. I guess you could say many people don't understand me and my dog but as long as he is with me that's all that matters.
"Ah puppy love. Next?" Mr Samuel's said looking at Mum who had what it looked to be an Island.
"My project is based on a place close to my heart, it is an Island that is small but great things has came out of it and great memories. I shared a moment with a person that is close to my heart on that Island and everything else fell into place, the water, the view and the moon was so close to see too. This is one place that I will never forget and that is the reason it is close to my heart" Mum said sitting back down. Wait a second wasn't I conceived on an Island?, ew that is gross. People are very lucky that they don't know the very true meaning behind that Island, but unfortunately I'm not one of those people.
"And finally, Jake?" he said as Jake got up out of his seat showing a really unusual picture
"This is my project and it has the sun, water, wind and electricity in it. The reason for it is because these are things that no one can control, they are beyond our power and we don't know how they will turn out, just that they will always be there. If they are not here then there is no point of us being here. This shows how I feel about someone close to my heart, and the reason for me waking up every morning to know that that person is right beside me and always will be" He said with deep feeling looking at me with those big brown gorgeous eyes of his
A smile appeared on my face and I felt like crying to be honest, it was the most beautiful thing I have ever heard and so real because that's the exact same way I feel about him.
"That was by far the best speech and the most real and true meaning to a project that I have heard in years, well done Mr. Black" Mr Samuel's said clapping at Jake's work and suddenly claps filled the room
When Jake sat down, he looked in my eyes and I looked in his there was a very special moment between us there. I touched his hand and told him how much I love him and that he truly is perfect. He chuckled at the last bit and so did I. When the bell went, me, Dad and Jake had geography and when the lesson had started I showed Dad all about the projects that we made. He chuckled but I'm not sure weather it was because of Rosalie about Emmett or even worse Mum about that Island.
"What's up with that Island?" I asked him curiously
"Don't you know?, its where you were....." he started
"Yeah yeah I know all about that thank you very much, but I mean what's it called?" I asked him
"Island Esme, it was given to your Grandma by your Grandpa and they let us use it for me and your Mum's honeymoon" he said whispering
"Oh, now I get it" I said realising
"Miss Cullen, considering your paying so much attention to this lesson then perhaps you would like to answer a few questions" Mr Parker said challenging me with his eye brows up
"Okay" I said confidently as I could answer questions on geography in my sleep
"Tell us the seven continents in order from the largest to the smallest" he said
"Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe and Australia" I said confidently
"What is the capital of Brazil?" he asked
"Brasilia" I answered
"What about Denmark?" he asked another question
"Copenhagen" I said smirking
"Where is Saltzberg?" he asked annoyed
"Austria" I said smiling while Dad and Jake tried not to laugh
"Class as you can see over here we have........" he continued on with the lesson after that but kept looking in my direction with curiousity.
"You should have answered one wrong" Dad said noticing his curiousness
"What fun would that have been" I said smiling
Dad just shook his head smiling and we got back to our work. The bell went yet again and we all got up off our seats and packed our books away, I was walking out the door when Mr Parker called me back.
"Miss Cullen?" he asked
"Yes sir?" I asked him
"A word of advise Miss Cullen, I do not tolerate smart Alec's in my class" he said formally
"What did you just call me?" I said defensively
"You know, a smart Alec, a know it all." he said
"Yeah I know what it means.." I said annoyed
"Exactly!" he fumed
"Well I'm not gonna apologise for knowing things, sir" I said looking at him with beady eyes
"Of course you wouldn't, your smarter than that" he said walking around in circles with sarcasm in his voice
"What is your problem?, you asked me questions and I answered them correctly" I said to him with my eyebrows clenched together
"Is there a problem here?" Dad came in and asked
"No" Mr Parker said
"Well, obviously there is" I said disagreeing
"Please keep your cousin under control, Mr Cullen" he was saying to Dad
"Under Control?" I asked in disbelief
"Lets go Nessie" Dad said taking me out of the classroom "I'm very sorry, sir" he said as we left
"What do you think your doing?" he said
"Well I was trying to defend myself but your butting in didn't help" I said "Under control, I'll show him what under control means" I hissed
We met up with everyone else at lunch and they all had some news of their own
"Guys guess what?" Alice said with excitement
"What?" we all asked
"The baby kicked" she said whispering while a smile stretched across our faces
Then we looked over to Emmett and Rosalie who looked the happiest they have ever been.
"Aw" I said
"Wanna feel?" Rosalie asked me
"Sure" I said sitting next to her
"Make it quick, before people notice" Dad said
Rosalie placed my hand over her stomach and I was thinking of how Rosalie and Emmett looked there now, so happy and I felt a little nudge on my hand.
"Wait, did he see that?" Rosalie said smiling as I took my hand away
"Yeah, I think so" I said grinning
"What did he see?" Emmet asked
I punched his arm lightly to show him and he smiled when I released my fist from him
"So no matter what, we are definitely the first people he see's even though he isn't even born yet?" Emmett asked
"Yes" I said
"How did your last class go, love?" Dad asked Mum
"It was okay, just music, but I preferred the class before that" Mum said smirking
"Yeah, I heard about that" Dad said looking over at me before focusing his eyes on Mum
Mum leaned in and gave Dad a kiss and he kissed her back
"Hello!, daughter still here" I said looking away from my lovey dove parents
"Hello!, we're still teenagers" Mum said looking at me then back to give Dad another kiss
"You see, that right there is being out of control!, not me I am definitely in control!" I said thinking about what Mr Parker said to me
"I have to agree with you about Bella and Edward but you can sometimes be out of control Nessie" Jasper announced
"Your one to talk" I muttered
"Nessie!!" Mum shouted at me
When the bell went Jasper was the first one to get up, not speaking a word. I knew that his control for his thirst was a hard subject for Jasper and I stupidly used it against him.
"Way to go, Nessie" Alice said getting up while giving me her beady eyes "Jazz" she called after Jasper
I looked down at the ground as I was getting up and had a long face on. Mum and Dad shook their heads at me while heading back to class.
"It's okay" Jake said putting his arm over me as we walked the corridors, he obviously saw the guilt in my face.
In the next lesson all I thought about was Jasper and that I was going to apologise to him when we are in Calculus, for what I said. I saw Carly in the class and we started talking.
"So how did it go with them guys last night" I said smirking
"Well, I got one of their numbers, his name is Matt" Carly said smiling, when she said his name her heartbeat was going really fast and she was blushing a bit too.
"So have you called him?" I asked her
"No" she said turning shy
"What!, and why not?" I asked her with confusion in my eyes
"I don't know I mean, what if he has changed his mind" she started of saying
"Carly listen to me, if every girl or guy had that attitude everytime they were afraid of asking the other out, do you know how many couples there would be?, none. Besides if he does think like that, then he doesn't deserve you anyway" I stated truthfully
"That's easy for you to say" she said looking away
"What's that suppose to mean?" I asked her
"Oh come on Nessie, you know you could have any guy at all in this school" she said
"I don't care, I've already got who I want and who I'll always want and that's Jake" I said to her
"You mean, your not gonna have another boyfriend after him?" she asked in disbelief
"I won't need one because there will be no "after him" anyway" I said
"You really love him, uh?" she asked
"Yeah, I do" I said smiling
The rest of the class flew in and it was time for Calculus, when I entered the room Jasper had already took his seat at the back and I joined him.
"Jasper, I'm really sorry about before I shouldn't have said what I did" I said apologising to him
He didn't move, his eyes just followed one person, one person that he hated and I joined him on that note, It was Lucas.
"Jasper?" I asked him
"Nessie could you not have so much guilt, it's kind of distracting" he said
"I'd feel a lot less guilty if you forgave me" I said tempting him
"Oh yeah, sure your forgiven" he said before focusing on Lucas who had the biggest smirk on his face
I suddenly felt a rush of sadness flow through me and next thing I knew everyone was banging their heads on the table repeating "I hate my life, I hate my life" they chanted over and over again, even Miss Matthews was doing it but on the board instead of a desk. People were even crying and Jasper was having a mental breakdown by the looks of it, something had definitely gone wrong. I looked over to Lucas who was staring at everyone, he looked like he was having fun with it all and when he noticed me looking at his direction he just simply said "It has just begun". What did he mean by that?, was it a threat?, I honestly didn't know. When everything was back to normal, the bell rang and I grabbed Jasper and headed for the door. Everyone was looking at the cars for some reason and didn't look away.
"Guys?, we need to talk......" I said trailing on "What happened?" I asked when I realized they were looking at Jake's torn apart bike with the chains on the ground.
"Lucas?" I asked as they all nodded but when they looked up they could see I had my hand gripped on Jasper's arm and they knew something was wrong immediately.
"What happened?" Mum asked
"Jasper filled the room with sadness so that it would effect Lucas but, Lucas he....he threw it right back in his face and it didn't effect him at all" I said explaining to the others
"Jasper, are you okay?" Alice asked concerned
"Yes, I think so" he replied
I got lost in thought trying to figure out on what Lucas ment
"Nessie, what is it?" Jake asked shaking me a little
"Lucas, he said.........it has just begun" I said looking at my family
"What does that mean?" Emmett asked
"I don't know" I said shaking my head
"This guy is pushing me over the edge!" Jake growled
I put my hand on his arm before turning to Rosalie
"Is there anyway you can fix it?" I asked
"No, not even I could fix that, sorry dog" she said actually sounding sincere
"Rosalie.." I said glaring at her
"Sorry, Jake" she said
"I don't want you to be sorry blon-Rosalie, I want him to pay" Jake said
"Money isn't a problem Jake, It can be replaced" Emmett said
"That's not what I meant and I don't want it replaced I've had it for 19 years and me and Bella didn't go through fixing them bikes for nothing" he said sounding mad
"Mum?, fix a bike?" I laughed
"Actually I did help Nessie" Mum said
"Come on, we better get home to tell Carlisle and Esme" Dad said changing the subject
When we reached the house, Dad was the one who explained everything to Grandma and Grandpa.
"I'm sorry about your bike, Jacob" Grandma said
"Thanks Esme" Jake said sightly smiling
"Nessie, did Lucas say anything else or do anything that may give us a hint on what he meant by that?" Grandpa asked me
"No that was it" I said
"He has to be a shield, he just has to be" Mum said getting frustrated
"What, a shield for mental, physical and emotional attacks?, I don't think he is a shield" I said
"Then what do you think he is then?" Emmett asked
"Well we know that he his definitely a vampire and we know that he isn't half breed" I said
"Yeah?" they all said nodding their heads for me to carry on
"What if he is more human than vampire?, I mean it would explain how he still has a heartbeat and why he eats like a human does but still has powers and the same physical strength as a vampire" I said stating the obvious
"You know Nessie, could be right on this one" Alice said talking to the others
"Yeah, well only time will tell and he will need to be confronted by one of us, about all of this" Rosalie said
Everyone looked around at each other before everyone had their eyes on me
"Aw, Come on!" I moaned "You seriously want me to be alone with that guy again?" I said looking at everyone
"Your the only one he trusts and would listen to" Emmett said
"And we know he won't hurt you" Jasper said
"Really how?, how do you know that?" I asked him
"Because, I did tap into his emotions and he does love you Nessie, maybe not as much as Jake loves you or you love him but, he still loves you in a way"
"That makes me feel a whole lot better" I said sarcastically "Maybe he won't hurt me physically but there are other ways he can hurt me like emotionally or even mentally" I said
No one answered
"Fine, I'll do it" I said giving in
"We won't be far away from you Nessie" Jake said
"Yeah.....well I'm off to bed....night" I said to them making my way upstairs
"Night" they called after me
I opened my bedroom door before closing it again, I then got changed into my pyjamas and put my clothes on the hangers again. I opened the window and just sat there staring out while looking at the scenery. After that I climbed into bed and was drifting off to sleep, the last thing I remembered was Jake kissing my cheek.
Make me happy with a...........REVIEW, REVIEW, REVIEW!
