HEY EVERYONE! I'm back! Oh, and Please, just pretend that the thing with Alice and Jasper didn't happen last chapter. I had writers block when I did that, but now I'm cured of the dreaded thing.
I hope you like it! And, I will add the names of the people who reviewed next chapter :) Please review!
~Paige's POV~
It was about midnight when my plane landed… at least I think it was three in the morning. My mother and father warned me that we were in different time zones…
"Excuse me, what time is it?" I asked one of the flight attendants, right as I was about to exit the plane. The flight attendant smiled at me.
"Well, it is midnight on the dot." My eyes widened. MIDNIGHT? HOW! I left the airport in Jacksonville before 9, but I know the flight was longer. Wasn't it? Ugh, this is to confusing.
"Thank you, Ma'am." I exited the plane, trying to ignore the confusion of times. Wait… I told Jake and Kira to pick me up… Crap! I used Jacksonville time, which means that I told them they should pick me up at 3! Did I say three Forks time, or Jacksonville time… GAH! This is all Embry's fault! If he hadn't of broken up with me, then I would still be in Jacksonville, and I would still know what time it was!
I pulled my phone out of my bag, turning it on. I hope they will understand, and not be mad that I got times mixed up. I bet Kira will be glad she doesn't have to be here at 3 in the morning.
"Paige? Is that you?" I heard my name being said. The voice sounded eerily familiar, but I don't know where I have heard it before. I slowly began walking, wondering if the person was talking to another person named Paige. Paige is a common name, right? Yeah, of course it is.
"Paige Michael, I'd know you anywhere. Hey! Paige, wait up!" I walked quicker. The mystery person caught up with me, putting their hand on my shoulder turning me around.
"I knew it was you!" I saw the tan face of Quil Ateara smiling at me. I grinned back at him, hugging him.
"Quil! It's been a while!" He hugged me back. He was so warm; it was nice. Just like-
I stopped that train of thought, lets forget about him, and focus on what's in front of me, not what has happened in the past.
"It sure has! What brings you to Forks?"
"Just…. Stuff." I didn't feel like explaining.
"I meant what brings you to Forks this early?" I laughed.
"My plane." He began laughing with me. I sure missed hanging out with Quil and the others after they had to come back here.
"So…" Quil stopped laughing. I looked at him confused.
"Didn't work out with you and Embry, huh?" He sounded like he felt awkward. I nodded, looking at my shoes.
"Yeah… but oh well. Hey, where is baggage claim?" I changed the subject. Quil grabbed my hand.
"It's this way. Follow me." He pulled me along to where the baggage claim area was.
~Alice's POV~
I opened my eyes. My head still hurt from what happened before. Wait… what had happened before? Ugh… my head really hurts…
"Alice?" I heard a soothing (but eerie and creepy) voice come from the right side of me. I groaned, but turned my head so I could see who was talking.
I wish I hadn't though.
"What are you doing here?" I said, trying to sound tough, but hearing my voice made my ears ring, and my head pound.
"Why, is that any way to talk to your sister?" Bella chuckled darkly, her arms crossed.
"Sorry, my head really hurts. That's all." Bella looked at me with confusion.
"What, no screaming at me? No over-exaggerated gasp? Nothing? Just 'sorry my head hurt'?"
'Well, sorry but my head DOES hurt. No thanks to you.' I wanted to say, but I knew that wouldn't be the best thing to do at the moment.
"Sorry." I had to think my words through before saying them. I don't want to tick Bella off. One wrong word could make her snap, and seeing as though I'm the one in the hospital bed, I'd rather not have her kill me.
"Why do you not like me, Bell?" I looked at her with tired eyes. She blinked.
"Why? Well…. I-I just do. Is that a bad thing?" I shook my head ever so slightly.
"No… you can hate me. As long as you won't regret it, then you can do whatever you want."
"Regret? Why would I regret anything?" I can't believe I'm having this conversation…. WITH A PSYCHOPATH! Okay, Alice, gotta play it smart.
"You remember what Mom always told us? She always said to live life to the fullest. Life is to short to have any regrets. Is there anything you regret, Bella?" She was silent. Did I say something wrong? I hope not…
"Yeah… I do." She sounded defenseless. She sounded like the old Bella I had grown up with.
"Bella, sorry to change the subject, but I had forgotten to wish you a Happy Birthday, so… Happy Belated Birthday." I coughed at the end of that sentence. I got a good look at her face.
Her facial features surprised me. She looked vulnerable, but at the same time she looked like she was strategizing. She had tears in her big chocolate brownish-red eyes. Wait… brownish red? Her eye color is different… strange…
"Happy…. Belated birthday? Alice… you still wish me a happy birthday even after what we've been through?" I nodded.
"Of course, you're my sister after all." Her eyes widened, she looked like someone had punched her in the gut.
"Alice-" She trailed off, almost like she was at a loss for words.
The door flew open.
"Get out." A menacing voice came from the doorway.
"But…"
"NOW!" The person yelled at Bella. She bolted up from her seat, and ran out the door.
I was left alone and confused.
"What the hell?" I mumbled to myself.
"Ali-Cat!" Rosalie ran in, and hugged me. My eyes widened as she squeezed me.
"MUNCHKIN! Uh… Munchkinette, why are you turning purple?" Emmett ran in. Rosalie looked at my face and gasped, letting go of me. I took in a big breath, refilling my lungs with sweet air.
"Geez, Rosalie, warn a girl would ya?" I laughed, sitting up. She smiled apologetically at me.
"Hug?" Emmett asked cutely, his arms outstretched.
"Sure." I stayed sitting down. Not like I had a choice.
"Run into my sweet embrace Alice! Run, nay, frolic into my awaiting arms. Skip if you must, but Emmett is waiting!" Emmett smiled. Rosalie and I stared at him.
"I'm waiting!" Emmett had his eyes closed, and he was smiling. It took everything I had to keep from laughing.
"You're going to be waiting for a long time if you want her to run, skip, or frolic to you." Emmett looked at Rosalie with a pouty face.
"Why?" He whined.
"She has IV's in her arms and she has to stay in bed." Rosalie slapped the back of his head.
"ALICE! ROSALIE IS HURTING ME!" Emmett ran over to me, and hugged me.
"OOF!" He had thrown himself at me, causing me to fall back on to bed.
"EMMETT! DON'T TACKLE HER! YOU WILL CRUSH HER!" Rosalie scolded him, pulling him off of me.
"WHY! Alice is a tough cookie!"
"Yep, but this tough cookie is feeling kind of crummy." I made a cookie joke. Rosalie chuckled softly, while Emmett was howling like a freaking grizzly.
"Why does it sound like Emmett is dying of laughter in here?" I hear /his/ voice from outside the door. Is it sad to say I felt my heart pounding? I felt like it was so loud everyone could hear it.
"Wow, Jasper, just hearing you made her heartbeat quicken." My eyes widened. Just because they were vampires, they could hear my heart? Rosalie, seeing the look of shock on my face, began laughing.
"The heart rate monitor, sweetie. It shows us your heart rate." I blushed from embarrassment, how am I so stupid?
"Aww, she's blushing." Emmett cooed. I glared at him. He put his hand close to my face (I don't even know what he was trying to accomplish by doing that). Big mistake. I opened my mouth, and bit his finger.
Emmett looked down at me, noticing what I was doing. His eyes filled up with tears.
"ROSALIE! ALICE BIT MY FINGER! I THINK SHE IS A CANNIBAL! ROSALIE! PROTECT ME!" He struggled, flailing his hand around. I squeezed my eyes. DAMN IT! DOESN'T HE REMEMBER I'M A HUMAN?
"JAZZY! STOP! You're hurting her!" I let go of his finger, lying my head back on the pillow.
"Oh, sorry Alice." He stood next to Rosalie, not like he had a choice. She was holding onto his ear, making sure he wouldn't do anything stupid.
"All of you, settle down! Remember this is a hospital, not a playground." Carlisle walked in with Jasper and…
"What is he doing here?" Rosalie glared at Edward who was standing next to Carlisle.
"I'm here to make sure Alice is okay. And, that she stays that way. Lately, everyone has been on edge. Something big is coming. Something none of us have ever witnessed before."
"Ah, cut the Narrator act. What is this thing you're talking about?" Rosalie crossed her arms, letting go of Emmett's ear.
"I just told you, I don't know." He glared back at Rosalie.
"Then how do you know that there is something coming?"
"I just do, okay?"
"I believe him." I sat up again.
"You do?" Emmett looked at me with disbelief.
"Yes, I do. And I can help." I pushed all the 'vulnerable and weak' thoughts to the back of my mind. I had something I needed them to know. Something that will help all of us get through this event that Edward is warning us about.
"No way, Alice. You're human." Jasper walked up to me, staring at me.
"I'm going to help." I wasn't taking no for an answer. He looked almost pleadingly at me.
"Please Alice."
"I can see events before they occur." That was our advantage.
"You… what?" Rosalie looked surprised.
"YOU HAVE ESPN?" Emmett wasn't joking when he said that… he was being serious.
"I can control emotions." Jasper interjected.
"I can read minds." Edward sounded like he was fighting with Jasper when saying this.
"Oh no, we're not getting into that again." Rosalie cut off the telepathic guy fight going on between the two.
"Well, seeing as though we're making some what of a quilting circle, or sharing circle if you would rather me call it… What do we know of this event coming up?" Carlisle pulled up a few chairs, setting them around my bed.
"Well, when I was with Bella and Victoria, they were fighting."
"And that is new, why?" Rosalie cut in.
"They were fighting with each other." I nodded.
"Bella has regrets." I mumbled.
"Why do you say that?" Carlisle asked. Jasper took my hand into his, intertwining our fingers.
"Because I talked to her today." This caused pandemonium in the group.
"She was here? Why didn't you call a nurse?" Rosalie sounded angry.
"Because, she would have hurt me if I had. I was being smart. I talked to her. Remember how I was always the peacemaker back home? I talked to her like I used to. She sounded like the old Bella. She told me she had regrets. She wasn't even mad at me. She seemed relieved to be talking to someone. But, someone interrupted us and yelled at her telling her she needed to leave. She left then you came in Rosie." Rosalie looked shocked.
"How is it you can be so smart and be able to keep calm, even in those circumstances?" I smiled.
"I don't know, I just keep a level mind, and think before I speak. I knew that even one wrong word, and she could kill me." I felt Jasper's grip on my hand tighten.
"Hey, where is Kira?" I just noticed the absence of the redhead.
"Who knows, probably somewhere being pregnant." Emmett said. I began laughing. I don't know why what Emmett said made me laugh, but it did.
"Rosalie, I thought you were being with Kira because of the baby." Jasper leaned his head against mine. Some of his hair hit my face, tickling my cheek lightly.
"Esme is with her right now." Carlisle finally got out of his shock.
"How is Esme?"
"She is doing well. She had to find a way to cover the events that happened in the hotel, but she is sneaky, and found a way. That's one of the many reasons I love my wife." I nodded, Esme hides her true colors well. She puts on a sweet mother act, but when someone tries to harm someone she knows, she becomes almost like a ninja.
"Rosalie, either your butt just vibrated, or you got a text." I then noticed where Emmett's hand was. My eyes widened.
"EWWW! PDA!" I shrieked playfully.
"You're one to talk. I bet Jasper does this all the time to you." Emmett shot back. I blushed.
"Even if I do, I hide it better then you ever do." My eyes widened.
"Back to the subject-" Edward cut in.
"Does Victoria, Bella, or the mystery man have anything to do with the tense atmosphere?" I asked Edward. He nodded.
"Probably-" I cut him off again.
"Will the werewolves be involved?"
"Most definitely." He stared at me, "You and Kira are going to be put in danger."
"And that is supposed to be new news why? I'm put in danger almost every day. I think I can handle it."
"No, Alice, he means that it will be more dangerous. You will be challenged more than ever." Jasper kissed my forehead, "Are you sure you want that?"
"If it means I get to be with you, then I'm positive. And there is nothing anyone can say that will change my mind."
"How about no." I looked up, seeing Charlie walk in.
"No to what?" I asked. What does Charlie know about what he is saying no too?
"You're not getting married this young! I just walked in, and I hear 'if it means getting to be with you, then I'm positive'. Alice, you're not old enough to marry him! When you get out of high school is when I will consider it." My eyes were wide.
"I was actually asking Alice if she would want to get married after we both finish school. Thank you, Chief Swan." Charlie nodded, smiling.
"I'm just glad my little Alice got together with you Jasper, and not Edward." Edward cleared his throat.
"Hi Chief Swan." Charlie's eyes widened.
"Oh… Edward, didn't see you there…" Charlie paused, "Hi…" Charlie scratched the back of his neck.
"Uh- Dad, I think you should go…"
"Yeah. Bye sweetie, I'll be back later." He kissed my forehead, then walked out.
Rosalie made sure he was gone, before starting to laugh.
"That…. That was amazing. Beautiful! Wonderful!" She was laughing like a crazy loon.
"So who texted?" Jasper asked Rosalie. She pulled out her phone, obviously forgetting it had vibrated.
"Kira. She says Paige is in town." My eyes widened, and I grinned.
"Really? YAY!" Paige and I had become great friends over the short time we got to know each other.
"Hey, Carlisle, isn't it true that you can't officially hold Alice here unless she wants to be here?" Rosalie randomly asked. Carlisle looked shocked.
"That is true. Alice, do you want to stay here or go home?"
"She's not going home. If she leaves here, she is staying over at our house." Jasper answered for me.
"Yeah, and you can monitor her there, seeing as though you are our father and you live with us." Edward walked over to me, and sat on the other side of me, where Jasper wasn't.
"And, we can invite Kira, Morgan, Paige, and the others over for a pow-wow. We need to start planning for this big event that is going to happen. We need to be ahead of the game." Carlisle walked over to me, and unplugged me from the IV.
"Yay! Lets go!" Rosalie was about to pull me off the bed.
"One sec, can I have a moment alone with Alice?" Jasper still held onto my hand.
"You'll have plenty of time to be alone with Alice at home, Jazzy. Lets go."
~Kira's POV~
"Why the hell didn't you call us when you landed? Why did you wait here for three hours?" I scolded Paige. I wouldn't have been so hard on her if I hadn't have found her snogging Quil Ateara at the baggage claim place. If they were talking I wouldn't have gotten angry, but no! Paige had to be fuckin' his face off!
Under different circumstances, I would have been thrilled that they were kissing, but Paige came here to make up with Embry! I know how she feels, being broken up with hurts, and I guess Quil confessed, but she probably won't be going out with him for a while! I know that a hook-up is not so bad, but she lives in Jacksonville for god's sake! Wait… what AM I saying? I was rooting for her and Quil to end up together, but why did they have to be kissing in an airport? Don't they have better things to do? Like, oh I don't know, get her luggage? Her bags were just sitting on the conveyor belt, while she was sitting on Quil's lap, mapping out the inside of his mouth.
"Sorry Kira." She stared at her shoes, looking guilty. Quil was with Jake, probably talking about why he was there.
I sighed, patting her head.
"So, how'd it happen?" I had been the mean cousin for to long. It's now time to get back to being normal Kira.
"Well, he was holding my hand, showing me where the baggage claim was. We passed a News Stand that was open, and he told me to close my eyes and open my mouth. I did what he had said, and he put a Hershey kiss in my mouth. We then walked to baggage claim again, and when we got here, there was a mob of people. I tried to weed through the crowd but I got pushed. Quil helped me up and told me that we should wait until the crowd had died down. So we both sat on the benches, and I asked if I could have another kiss, and well, you can guess what he gave me." I squealed and hugged her.
"That is so cute!" I gasped, feeling the baby kick.
"You okay Kira?" Jake ran over, hearing me gasp.
"Yeah… the baby kicked, that's why I gasped." Jake put his hand on my stomach. I felt the baby kick again. He smiled down at me, and got on his knees and talked to my stomach.
"Hi… uh… I'm your dad. My name is Jacob, but you will know me as Dad. Yeah… thank you for being our kid, and yeah…" Jake looked like he felt awkward.
"Jacob, quit the awkward act. You've seen me naked before; so don't act like you're nervous because you're talking to my blimp of a stomach. That's your kid for goodness sake! Be a man!" Jake smirked at me.
"Well, that was your mother. She has a temper, but we both love you. And I know you will love your mother." The baby kicked again. I smiled down at Jake.
"That's better." He stood up and kissed me, I kissed back. I quickly broke the kiss, and yelled at Paige and Quil.
"JUST CAUSE JAKE AND I ARE MAKING OUT DOESN'T MEAN YOU TWO CAN!"
"Yeah!" Morgan yelled, causing me to jump.
"When did you two get here?" I asked Seth and Morgan.
"We've been here the whole time. You drove us here."
"Oh yeah…" I scratched the back of my head, "Sorry. I forgot."
My phone vibrated. I pulled it out, reading the text from Rosalie.
"We're going to the Cullen house. They need to talk to us." Jake nodded, grabbing Paige's bags.
"Quil, help get your girlfriends bags." I yelled over my shoulder, walking Paige to the truck.
~? POV~
"They know." I sneered.
"I know that they know. It is good that they know." Victoria walked up to me, patting my shoulder.
"Therefore, they can cower in fear, and be afraid of every turn, waiting for us."
"Yes, and when they think that they are in the clear, we will strike their one weakness."
"Weakness?"
"Alice."
