Serenity's POV:
it was dark when I woke up, I was disoriented and was quiet unused to my surroundings, and couldn't help but shudder. The fire had long since gone out, making everything look eerie as something moved in the shadows. "who's there?" I called quietly. "no hellos? Am I really not even worth that?" the voice returned. "now that is sad Serenity." his words froze me in place, I knew who it was and thought of how huge a mistake I made in coming here. "Serenity?" Demetri's voice asked softly. "I wont eat him," I replied quietly; defiant. This seemed to confuse him for the moment, but I heard his feet move closer in my direction and a small chuckle that was colored with amusement. "I see, so you still have feelings dinner, but will you ever consider taking up my offer?" I blanched. "sorry, but uh, not in this lifetime."
the lights suddenly come on, illuminating the room as I reach up to shield my eyes, letting them quickly adjust, and notice just how close Demetri and I were standing. Mere inches and a chair separated us. "how do you do that?" I heard myself ask, annoyed that I couldn't figure it out. At this he smirked, his fingers twitching towards his pocket, pulling out a small device. "ah, see, now this is why I love technology. Nothing more handy than a remote activated generator," I snorted. "do you know what's even more handier than a remote?" I asked, thinking of the answer with delight and wishing I had one with me. "what is?" he arched his eyebrow. "a cannon." I replied simply. "And why's that?" he asked. Mentally I answered his question, so that I can launch you across the earth and be rid of you, grinning that he couldn't figure it out by now, but instantly sobered by the strange pang it brought along with it. Why would I be feeling this way?
The longer I stared at him, the longer I wanted to know what he would feel like to me if I were to hold him in my arms. No, bad. bad bad, very bad idea. Quickly before any other insane craving could reign in, I looked away from Demetri, my eyes rapidly searching for a way out of the small prison. Demetri caught the direction of my gaze and chuckled again, "go ahead, I should warn you though, they are locked and I still haven't been able to find the key." what was he planning? "you still haven't found the key, and you still aren't going to get me to eat my boyfriend." I stalled. He laughed bitterly. "he's human. Squishy and boney, are you sure about your choice?" he was agitated, and he was still trying, but I didn't know what he wanted.
Renesmee's POV:
soon I escaped from my sister's accusing voice to the shelter of my room and later went out to go hunt. What I hadn't expected though, was to run into an Adessi twin, Alec's brother Demetri. It was still impossible for me to think of the arrangement I made with Alec, but I was happy and after taking aunt Rose's advice, I found that it was becoming a more bearable burden to not have Jake around. For once in my life I was able to breath and not have to worry about some one's overly watchful eye. I was in my room pulling together some jeans, a few borrowed heels, and a red blouse for my date with Alec later. Dad didn't seem to mind that I was going out, for all he knew he probably thought that I was going to the res to see Seth, and I felt bad for not telling him that that wasn't the case.
Walking to the edge of the property, I waited as Alec pulled up in a red mustang convertible and climbed in, asking, "so, what do you have in mind?" he smiled. "don't know, still new here, remember?" I blushed, forgetting about that. "sorry," I whispered. "hey, no worries and I mean it Renesmee." he replied sweetly, I looked over at him as he drove and smiled, loving how the way he said my name reminded me of melting honey. "Port Angels would be a good start," I recommended thinking of how mom and dad would take Seren and I there when we were little. It seem to be almost like forever ago, that I was last there, swinging in my parents' hands and my sister was situated on my father's shoulders, all of us laughing happily while Seren and I giggled wildly at mom's account of stories about uncle Emmett.
I laughed softly to my self, forgetting the here and now or the fact that I was a teenager sitting with a boy who wasn't Jake. "am I missing some thing?" Alec asked amused. "oh, i was just thinking of a family moment, sorry." I explained apologetically. "ah. That's fine, I mean I understand having a sister and all," he replied. I gasped, thinking that it was just him and Demetri and felt bad for being so narrow minded. "so what's her name?" I asked inquisitive now. "Ja- Janelle, her name's Janelle," Alec answered, an emotion that I didn't recognize flashing in his eyes. Instead I wrote it off, looking away towards the speedometer noticing a speed that my grandpa would hardly approve of and something that was a little fast for a human.
When ever we passed under the upcoming street lamps, I took in his beauty, admiring the every difference that he was to Jacob, and how they contrasted to each other. Alec's skin was a mix between an olive and pale cream, while his eyes were a red-ish brown, and his hair were long rich mahogany strands that barely reached his shoulders. Of course it pained me to think of Jacob, but I bit my lip and refused to let thoughts of him ruin my happy mood, let alone a whole evening when I knew he didn't regret his actions. Things in the car were silent until we reached our destination, the lights gleaming happily at the waiting tourist in a welcoming glow, and other teens roamed near the small strip malls in groups. Alec found a parking spot near one of the restaurants and getting off, we made our way down a little path and eventually found the movie theater.
As we grew closer to the entrance, my eyes caught one of the titles that flashed in red and one of the banners that announced the were playing classical movies tonight, and my excitement seemed to soar in a suspended state. Alec read the enthusiasm that my body projected as he asked, "any movie in mind?" I knew which one answering without thought. "Titanic. Um, if that's okay?" I added, trying to be polite. "sure, if that's what you want to see. Two tickets for Titanic miss," Alec replied to the girl working the ticket booth. We soon found a few seats in the middle of the semi-packed room, previews for other upcoming movies playing while the lights dimmed and readied for the main showing. Other viewers whispered in hushed conversation, some munched on popcorn while others were texting their friends before the movie started.
"it's funny how I've never seen this movie before," Alec mused thoughtfully. I was shocked, who else hadn't seen this movie? "but its been out since '98, you sure you haven't seen it?" I asked. He nodded. "surprisingly enough, isn't it?" he smiled darkly, "i have heard of it though, and I believe the actual story is a tragedy." he commented. Yes, it was. Grandpa Carlisle had said it was a total nightmare that night of 1912, as he waited in the hospitals of New York finding the news of the unsinkable ship a rather shock and was immediately put to his limits with those who had caught hypothermia from the accident. I looked back to the screen, seeing Jack and his best friend trying to make it to the ship before it had set off on its final voyage, and wondered what it would have been like to have been caught in the icy depths of the Atlantic.
Like many other girls of that stayed to watch the end of movie, I recited Rose's lines along with her, wishing that Jack had been smart and stayed on the board thingy with Rose instead of being in the water. None the less, I still cried, even after seeing the movie a billion times with Seren and Jake. Alec took my hand and guided us to the exit, then led me to one of the Cold Stone's that was down the next street. Just as we were about to walk out, Leah and Jake stopped in front of us, Jacob growling and shaking hysterically, as Leah glared at Alec then shifted the evil eye to me.
"Nessie, get away from him," Jake growled from his teeth, but I wasn't going to be ordered around any more. "no Jacob." I said calmly. "either you get away from him or you're both lunch." Leah hissed. I shook my head and protectively stepped in front of Alec with my arms crossed over my shoulder. "again, I say no. give me good reason why I should Jake," I demanded from him, ignoring Leah completely. His eyes were pained by my choice, but he tried to be logical about the situation and started reversing gears. "Leah, go find Seth and re-leave him of his post," he ordered her. She double shook her head, "why?" she wined.
"go Leah! I need to talk some sense into her, so unless you want me to make Seth beta, then I suggest you should leave," he growled, angry at her for her resistance. Finally left with no other option, she left eying Alec and I before returning her gaze to some of the woods that opened into the city. "he's a little too old for you don't you think?" Jake asked nodding to Alec. "correct me if I'm wrong Jacob, but you did turn thirty-nine last year," I replied sharply. "I'm younger than that bloodsucker that's standing behind you, Ness." he returned, his hands still moving like a tuning fork. "you know what Jake? I've had about up to here with you, now if you cant let us enjoy our evening then I guess we'll be leaving." I replied, turning away from him and towed Alec away with me back to the car with my free hand.
"sorry you had to witness that Alec," I apologized, but he shook his head, "no, its fine, maybe he's right." Alec admitted. "No! Its not alright, Alec, I need to make it up to you," I replied frustrated that things didn't go like planned. "okay, so things aren't fine, but if you really want to make it up to me, I was going to go back to Europe for break to visit my family. I still am, but if you would want to come with me I'd understand." he offered and I nodded vigorously. It wasn't a first that I had flown out of the country, but that was with family, and the thoughts of Europe had me just as intrigued as I wondered were the Adessi family was originally from. "oh I'd like that Alec, thank you," I whispered. " when were you leaving?" I asked. "next Friday; I should take you home," he replied looking at his cell phone. I nodded and we left back for Forks.
Serenity's POV:
okay, I was getting tired of the charades, and as Demetri realized what I was up to he closed more of the distance between us. I was starting to have trouble breathing and my heart pumped faster with each step he took and I finally came to a conclusion. "i still owe you a dance don't I?" I asked as he nodded. "you do, we never got around to it." he said quietly. "you win," I replied quietly, "let me go and I'll keep my promise." he shook his head. "no, first we'll dance and then I'll keep my end of the bargain." I was left with no other choice so I nodded.
Demetri stepped back, turned around so that he could face what little furniture there was in the cabin and began to push it off to the side, clearing just enough space for it to be called a dance floor and plugged in a secret i-pod dock with a crimson Nano. After adjusting the volume, Demetri hit play and a soft melody started from a piano, the room instantly filled with sound as he came and took my hand. We started rocking back and forth with the sound, following the beautiful rhythm, and spun once or twice in a waltz. Once the song ended and another began to take it's place, we kept dancing, my feet carrying me and he glided effortlessly across the floor, while violins played in harmony with a flute and another piano, but this time I recognized the track.
"lion, the witch and the wardrobe?" I asked surprised by his choice. "what's wrong with that?" he asked. "nothing, I just never pegged you for the type to listen to classical music," I found myself answering. "believe it or not," he laughed, "but I have a harder time keeping Alec from changing it to alternative, than I do listening to classical. Besides, the track at the end of the move is pretty soothing." he replied. I guess he was right, I mean I did love the ending when the Pevensies became kings and queens, but I was beginning to get sleepy as he leaned forward and kissed me on the cheek. "was this so bad?" he asked. "yes, no, oh I don't know," I said undeceive.
Again the song ended, but unlike last time, Demetri pulled out of my grasp, pausing the next tune and went to the door. "next time we meet, I hope you could stay longer so that we can talk. And Serenity?" he said pausing by the door, "try to stay dry the next time it rains, we don't want you catching a chill now do we?" as if just realizing what I just did, I turned around and reach for a pillow, throwing it at the now empty space that he had stood in. why was he having this affect over me? I asked myself frustrated that I couldn't find the answers to this question.
