AN:hey guys, hope u like things so far :P haha, well keep reading, and review.


Serenity's POV:

I could only imagine what my parents would have said to what they saw in front of them that one rainy day, their daughter that was suppose to be in school, and the boy that was with her, both unattended and alone in the rainy woods. It drew to much suspicion for them, but thank god auntie Alice was with him when they pulled up to my car. If not, then who knew what could've happened? Julian and I moved out of the car in a flash an hour or two later when they pulled up, but I still wasn't ready. From there, my dad and favorite aunt transferred us over into the Volvo and took off, driving back down the street in utter silence. It was almost too quiet, like a hurricane before the storm.

finally, we dropped Julian off at his house. To say that his parents were worried would have been a complete out right lie, because if there was one thing that they knew about my family, was that they sure knew how to keep a kid safe, that and my grandpa was the town doctor. Before leaving him, my eyes shifted to Julian's as they asked a question that only he understood. "is it safe?" they asked as Julian nodded silently in answer. Once I was in the car and out of view of my dad's protective eyes, I pulled out my phone and started texting my boyfriend. after I hit the "send" button, I noticed my father's features change, a glare soon fixed its self into place along with out right disbelief. I thought it was because I'd skipped school and kept trying to relax my nerves as we made our way home. I had never skipped before, and that was the basic truth if you didn't count yesterday. When we got to the house, I didn't know what to expect.

"how could you some thing so reckless?" he lectured with suppressed rage. I watched confused as to why what I did could have been so careless. Me? Careless? Silently I questioned the words that repeated themselves over and over like a record. Never. I'd never be careless or reckless, it just wasn't my cup of tea. If anything, I'm more careful than reckless. I let out a jittery little laugh that couldn't ever hold humor. "how many times have you been in trouble? How many times that we could've not known what you've done?" he paused. "that could put you at so much risk, us at risk? What you did with him, I don't even want to know. Except for one thing," dad was so quiet that I had to look up at him with an arched eyebrow. "and whats that?" I asked.

"how can you tell him?" it took me a few minutes to figure out what he was talking about, but my expression was still blank. "tell 'who' what?" I questioned. His voice turned hard when he spoke. "how could you tell him the truth?" unsuccessfully I tried to control the raw emotions that surged through me. "i- I couldn't take it anymore! Do you know what its like, living with this secret? As a child, not being able to get close to anyone? Anyone!" my voice broke and tears started running down my face, hot and salty. It wasn't able to sooth the pain that would always make my heart clench. I didn't think it ever would, not in this lifetime or the next. Of course escape would be just too easy. I looked away but I could still feel my father's staring at my back as if I hadn't moved.

Next he asked, "how can you put us in danger?" finally I was able to glance at him, briefly holding his gaze before looking away again. "i, i- I love him dad!" I stuttered, but managed to make my voice become stronger. i was hardly able to shock him, but so far I was on a roll from what it seemed. "and you'd rather risk your family over him? Would you rather risk all of us? Including your self?" he said slowly, letting the words sink in. I violently shook my head. "I'd never want that! No, I couldn't. But thank god the Volturi weren't near by." this time he took a long look in my direction with cold furry that was quiet, but when you looked for your self, you could see it in his eyes. They were unsettling and not familiar to me. "you have no idea what they're like." he replied dangerously low. It was obvious of who he was talking about that I shivered.

"no absolute clue of how they think. You are too reckless, young minded, a child practically. In their eyes, one life is like a twig. Snap, its out. Theirs, on the other hand, are like a rare precious gift. If you ever met Jane, you'd be worried." my aunt placed her hand on her brother's shoulder in the other wise quiet house. We were its only inhabitants at the moment, but still, it didn't help the matters. "Edward, I'd see if they were near by." instead his eyes shifted over to Alice. "no Alice, you wouldn't. Remember how Victoria put your theory to the test?" she nodded, clearly remembering the nomads that came trying to kill my mother. Suddenly I always wondered why my aunt could see me, but never my sister. An unusual hostility started to build its own cloud that covered my mind.

"you guys never get me! Ever! I cant believe you guys!" I said having enough to say to them, I ran upstairs to my room, and shifted the locks. They closed easily, with finality and a loud click-click. Dad came to knock on my door, but I wouldn't open up, so knowing that I could still hear him he said, "Serenity," I didn't answer, "Serenity, open up this door right now." still no answer from me. He walked quietly down the hall and replied, "the car is gone." I nodded to myself. I didn't care, I knew that would happen, so it didn't matter, as long as my feet were able to still carry me and I could walk was all that I cared about at the moment.


Demetri's POV:

I was so close I almost had her. Almost! She was right there too, but then so was he, that human. No matter, he's no threat. I ran back to the house, picked up my phone and i-pod, turned it on shuffle, and drowned out the world. All the pain, turn-oil, troubles and issues couldn't reach me as I submerged my self into a little bubble. I had my eyes closed and couldn't hear Jane's persistent knocks on the door. Instead, when I opened them again to change the song, I saw her standing over me in an arrangement manner and asked, "what? No room prepared?" I stared at her, placed the device on pause, and asked.

"does it look like I'm room service?" a familiar searing pain burned in my bones, and knew it was her doing that was choking me. It was menacing as I crouched in pain, withering on the floor and stared at her mischievous smile. Finally she let go and I was able to breath again. "now, my room?" she asked again. I looked at her, turned away, rolled my eyes and thanked god that she wasn't able to see that. I then got up and started walking the stairs, taking them three at a time, one heavy foot step after the other. She followed until we came to a door at the end of the hall. "here you go." I muttered walking back down to the living room. I'm not sure why I was able ask her, but I did. "i thought you weren't coming for a few more months." she laughed. "you're the one that asked for four months. We don't have that kind of time."

I wanted to yell anything, but I couldn't get away with it in person, no, it was more like begging for a death wish, one that I couldn't afford. Then Alec got home, before he went upstairs, I said quietly to him, "please control your sister, will you? I don't need to have any extra trouble added the batter." he nodded his understanding, but he still loved his biological sister. It was natural for him, and unlike me, she was hardly able to tell him what to do unless they both agreed to it. I didn't know what else to do. What was there?

I was tired, board, and all the other loose ends were taken care of. It wasn't like we ate anything solid, so, I couldn't make dinner. I decided to either run to Seattle or to their home, which ever came first.


Serenity's POV:

I couldn't take it anymore. How did he know? How did he find out is what I wanted to know. Lately all I've been hearing is the "what" part, but never "how" it happened and I was sick of not being able to have answers. I hoped Julian was able to hide what he was thinking from him, I honestly did, and prayed it wasn't me dad was reading. I didn't have all the facts, so I wasn't sure who it was. But with my father, you never knew when he'd pick something out from your mind that he wanted to hear, after so many years of practice it took him very little effort. It was confusing. I stared blindly out the window, watching the rain fall, each drop a single tear out of a crying sea.

I heard as my father pulled away to go hunt, leaving me alone in the house. Everyone was still hunting, they knew how I felt about it, so it didn't surprise them that I'd stayed behind. And aunt my aunt went to go pick up my sister. I looked to my night stand that held my clock radio and saw that school was over. We were now on break, and I was left with nothing to do except to use my phone. Which was exactly what I did. I started texting Julian.

Hey, u there?

Yeah, u grounded? 0_o"

yup! Indefinitely...

Lol, I cant imagine tht one

well, u might want to, cuz when u can live forever that sorta thing does happen :(

Nessie came running up to the room when they got home and asked, "what happened? Why are you guys so quiet? I mean, its so nice out, its raining!" she smiled happily. Strange enough, she loved the rain, but me? Not so much. I sighed. "of course you'd be happy for rain. It always hides what we are, our true selves. Could it be any more deceiving?" I said miserably. She turned her head so that her eyes could face me with a raised eyebrow. "what do you mean? Honestly what happened? Did I miss something?" she asked. I nodded and replied "i told Julian the truth." I said in a rush. "about?" she pried. "about what we were. Everything, from beginning to middle to end." her face fell.

It was a first for her, especially because I'd never told anyone out of the coven or the pack. I couldn't, but when I was with him, I felt like I just had to tell him the truth, even if it meant I'd get in trouble for it. "He'd been so truthful about his past even if it'd caused him so much pain, Nessie, but Julian didn't lie. From there, just thinking about having to leave him hurt too much that I can't picture myself with out him. And since I'd known him, he's never hurt me that I'd want to forget about him either." I said. Renesmee turned around heading for the stairs as I asked "where are you going?"

"to go get some boxes." boxes, for what? Is what I wanted to know. "why, is this because of me?" I almost shrieked, stunned. "No, I just want to move down stairs." she said avoiding my stare. But what she didn't see, she still felt. Pain and betrayal swirled around inside, causing me to not want to think, but what I kept asking my self was how did my dad find out? It seemed Ness read the emotions that threw them selves in front of my irises, but I calmly asked in a steady voice, "were you listening when I told him?" guilt flashed in her eyes and was soon gone. "why? Why did you have to tell them? Why were you listening?" I asked, but my voice cracked.

She turned away from me, steadying her voice. "look, its not my fault. I don't want to hurt mom and dad and they should know the truth." anger laced my words next time I spoke. "even if its a cost to me? Even if..." an frustrated sigh broke my lips. "you don't...you don't know me, do you? You don't know how I feel, what I go through. Nessie, do you not know what it is to be in love?" she shook her head slowly at each accusation. "it comes and goes, and for what? Pain, suffering, why? Why live through it?" she questioned painfully.

Before I could answer, she turned away, walked down the stairs and was gone. I couldn't stand this anymore, I had to go out, I had to breath. I packed my things together, as many clothes as I could carry in one luggage, which apparently meant I could only bring a good ten? Twenty pairs? Of everything? I grabbed my good leather jacket, finally, I opened up my window, and lept down. I ran into the forest, and kept running until I could see no more. I couldn't take it, I needed to be away, needed a way to get out. What I needed was my own life! I didn't know where to go, but I wanted to wake up from this endless unnerving dream. Finally, I went back to the cottage, unsure of how good of an idea it was. But I had to give it a try, I had to see something.

I brought my phone charger with me just in case, but it had no reception or charge and the wall plugs didn't work because they were out of power. I then wondered how Demetri got it to work that night, but left the thought unfinished. Thank god, the door was still unlocked as I collected enough dry wood to light in the fireplace and then went to go look for a match with no luck. I settled on one of the drawers, and nearly jumped for joy as my eyes took in the lighter. I took the small flame to the pile, letting the flames lick away at the bark, then went over to the bed, placing my luggage beside it, collapsed and fell asleep.


Demetri's POV:

I didn't know what to do anymore, there was only one solution, as I looked through the woods, peeking at their home from the distance, but I could tell she wasn't there. She was gone. I walked back through the woods, careful not to make a sound, I caught her scent; it was wild, reckless, and just like her. It was also careful and calculating. I followed it, to tempted by the thought of having her, but soon recognized the trail that she took with every step that led deeper and deeper into the woods back to the cabin. We needed both of them, both serenity and her sister, and I didn't know how to pull it off. I was shocked beyond end to run into the other sibling that I forgot about whether or not I was wearing the contacts. She was also as stunned as I was.

"Dem... hmm... Demetri," she stuttered out, confused as to why I was here. I wasn't so sure that she knew my name, but then again, I guess she did. she looked around behind me, trying to place answers to the undoubtedly long list of questions and started off by asking, "ah... what are you doing here? Aren't you suppose to be, uh, er... home?" she finished undecided. I shook my head, "nah. Too boring for my tastes and it's break." I explained as she nodded. "ah." quickly, before it could get too awkward, I changed the subject before she could press me for more answers.

"what are you doing out here?" I asked. She blushed, "i... I don't know. I think I was getting fresh air," I looked at her incredulously. "in the rain?" her expression grew defensive, "yes, in the rain. I like the rain." a half sigh -half chuckle escaped. "what, what's so funny?" she questioned curiously. "my brother, loves the rain. I wouldn't be surprised if he's out there right now." I replied, thinking of his strange obsession for this weather, but as I mentioned his name, Renesmee's eyes brightened. "Alec?" she asked. I nodded, "yeah." an idea started forming the longer we stood there.

"look, why don't I give you his number, and you could call him. If you like?" I added. This admission seemed to stun her, she shook her head violently, "oh I cant possibly do that! I mean, wouldn't it be a little weird for me to call him?" she fretted. "not in the least. In fact, I think you should," I replied encouragingly enough, playing the part, hoping that she would take the bait. Only after a short while, I knew she was hooked and almost ready to make that call. "here," I said, taking the phone that found its way into her hands and started punching in my brother's number. She took back her phone, looking like she was about to delete it from her contact list, but changed her mind at the last second. She gave it a wistful glance when I added, "keep it."

I left before she could change her mind again with one thought in mind. One down, one to go. Then I'd gotten a text from the subject of our conversation.

What did u do?

when I didn't respond, two more made their way persistently into my in-box.

Demetri, I kno ur seeing this

now wht did u do? o.O

I knew he was confused as to why I didn't answer; so then I did.

go along with it, its ur break

I closed the lid to my phone, powered it down and left for my original destination.


Alec's POV:

she called me, she actually called me. I didn't know she was going to, what my brother did or how or what happened, but I didn't want to as I had the strangest feeling that that was the break he was talking about. Renesmee had called, like always, I picked up on the first ring and was enchanted by her voice. "Alec?" she said into the receiver. "hello?" I replied calmly. When she spoke, the sound of her voice took on a brighter but casual tone. "um, this is weird but, how's your break?" I chuckled at her choice of words, wondering which one she meant.

"it's okay, I guess." I said. "oh, okay," she seemed to falter a bit with my answer. In a brighter note I asked, "how about your's? The rain putting a damper on things?" she happily answered, "well, no. I find this weather quite interesting. In fact, there's so much more to do when it dose rain." I smiled at this, "really?" I could picture her smiling now. "yeah. I love it! Don't you?" she questioned. I wanted to see her, so I asked, "hey, are you doing anything later?" there was a long pause and it made me hopeful. "no. do you want to, hang out later or something?" she hesitated. "I'd love to," I assured her. "great!" she exhaled in relief. "um, what time?" she asked as I thought of that for a minute.

"I'd say around 7:00 if thats okay with you," I answered, leaving room in case she wanted to go a little later. "its okay, see you at 7:00 then, bye." she said hanging up on the other line, leaving me in silence. Jane then came down the stairs to the living room, "bravo!" she said delicately, a smirk working its self into place.

I looked her once over, then turned away wondering what she wanted now, and was about to find out. "looks like someone has a date," she commented mischievously. "yes and you're not coming," I told her warningly. She laughed, her voice a twinkling wind chime. "like I'd do something like that," she scoffed. I arched an eyebrow at her as she smiled again and said, "okay, okay, fine. Me not coming,". My muscles relaxed immediately, "good. Now I need to go get ready.' I said and went up to my room. All the preparations are set.
