The thought hasn't escaped me, as my current two aggressors stun me and pull me from my hiding spot that they are two of the three that can control the fire that can wipe out my race. God, I am not trying to melodramatic here but if I live through this I promise to enjoy life more and not be a broody bastard! Oh no… I am going to die a virgin! What are they going to do to me?
"Harry mate, levitate him towards this empty classroom. We can talk to him there."
I suddenly feel my body lift into the air and a float into a classroom. I hear the door click and the lock on the door activate. If I could gulp, I would.
"Reenervate!" Sweet baby Jesus I can move again thanks to the ginger kid. They both have their wands pointed at me and I am cornered into one of the walls.
"When Cedric said he had a twin and it was one of the Cullen's that he wanted us to meet we didn't expect his doppelganger to be snogging our best friend."
"I'M A VIRGIN!" so much form my dignity. At least this way I can escape with my life. My two capturers look at each other and burst out laughing.
"You really expect us to believe that?! You are like, bloody ancient!" That red head really has a temper.
"I mean it! Cast a spell or something to check if I am lying!" I beg. I am not above begging. The redhead has now moved his wand to my crotch and I really value my member.
"Dobby" Harry calls.
I hear a faint pop and suddenly a small green creature appears. "Master Harry Potter sir calls for Dobby."
"Yes Dobby, I would like you to go to Snape's storage and grab us a bottle of veritaserum."
"Yes sir, Dobby lives to serve Master Harry Potter sir. Master Harry is the best master sir." The creature bows and pops away. Things are tense for a few minutes until the creature comes back with a bottle and pops away again.
"Drink it" Harry states. I take a gulp of the disgusting potion. I immediately feel funny.
"What is your full name?" Harry asks.
"Edward Anthony Masen Cullen"
"Are you related to Cedric Diggory?" that would be Ron.
"I am not sure. We are planning on looking into our family history to determine if we are related or not. I believe we are though because the resemblance is uncanny."
"What is your biggest fear?" No… please not that question….
"Lint. It is comprised mostly of other people's skin and it grosses me out." They immediately burst out laughing.
"Well Harry, we know the veritaserum is working. No one in their right mind would admit that out loud!"
"Are you a virgin?"
"Yes" I may be embarrassed beyond belief but this potion is probably saving my life.
"Do you want to deflower our Hermione?" FUCK! Or it may end it.
"Yes, she is my wife. I will wait until she is ready. The bond wants us to move things along but I don't want to rush anything." Please don't kill me…
"What do you mean bond?" Ron asks.
"We have a soul bond, or at least that is what Dumbledore and Hermione called it. It is actually getting painful being away from her."
"Ron, go get Hermione so she isn't in pain but don't reenervate her yet." Suddenly the door slams open and a vengeful demon-induced Hermione steps through.
"Uhh… Harry, too late." He sounds frightened.
"HOW DARE YOU BOTH?! I planned on talking to you like rational adults but NOOOO…. You two buffoons go and ruin it!" she suddenly stops yelling and whispers "I thought you wanted me to be happy." She's upset….
"Sorry 'Mione." They repeat in unison and go to hug her. As she hugs them she smiles at me and winks. She played them by pretending to be upset. I try to make a mental note not to ever fall for that.
"You owe Edward an apology too."
"Sorry mate. We just care for her ya know?" I just nod. Afraid to speak at the moment due to the potion.
"Now Dumbledore wants to see the both of you." They scurry out of the room and Hermione comes to hug me.
"You okay?"
"Yeah, they gave me some kind of potion that makes it to where I can't lie? They didn't kill me or glare at me when they left so maybe I am making progress."
Hermione looks at me worriedly. "Veritaserum has never been tested on vampires. We don't exactly know when it will wear off."
Oh . . . . Oh God no!
"Let me test it. It may be gone by now. What animal did you have as a kid?"
"A cat." Still working. Damn.
"C'mon, let's go check on the family. It is time for dinner." She goes to lead me out of the classroom but I pull her back and hold her close to me.
"I am not ready to share you yet. I want to make out." Well… I can't lie. She smiles and kisses me. As she leans up to put her arms around me I notice that her shirt rides up a little so that a small sliver of skin is exposed. I take advantage of the fact and place my hands partially under her shirt rubbing circles into her back. She lets out a small moan and I nearly jizz my pants. I pull back from her in a hurry.
"What is the matter" She looks hurt.
"I nearly jazzed my pants when you moaned. Too much more and I would've taken you." This truth thing is going to get old….
"This is going to be a long day for you." She says with a smirk. "Come on, let's go drink our dinner."
EmPOV
Cedric ran into Harry and Ron on their way to Headmaster's office. They apologized to Cedric for stunning him but gave him a little piece of news to make up for it. The best news I overheard all day. Edward can't lie. MWHAHAHAHAHAHA.
I run into the great hall and tell the rest of my family to get them in on the torture. Edward is nearly impossible to get one over on so everyone wants a piece of this. Even Carlisle and Esme look eager.
Oh here they come! Here they come!
Cedric, can you do something to make sure he can't run away? He nods at me in confirmation. Oh this will be good!
"Hey all, how was everyone's day?" Hermione asks. She really is hot. Too hot for Edward. Speaking of, he just growled in my direction. He must disagree with me. Vain.
"We all had a pleasant day. How was yours, Edward?" Rosalie says with a smirk. God she is so hot. Especially when she is pran- prancing. Yeah. Prancing. Good save, go me!
"It was bad. I ran for my life against Hermione's friends and they found me and asked embarrassing question. Why are you acting odd Emmett" Oh my, my, my.
"What did they ask you?" GO ESME!
"They asked me if what my greatest fear was, if I planned to deflower Hermione, and if I was a virgin."
"What did you answer?" YAASSSSSS CARLISLE!
"Lint, yes, and yes." He looks like he would be sweating if he could.
"YOU TOLD MY BEST FRIENDS YOU PLAN TO DEFLOWER ME?" Bahahaha. Look at him flinch.
"I said you were my wife so…. Uhh… eventually, but we wouldn't until we were ready!" That calmed her a little. You can tell she is still irate though.
"Son, did you say you were afraid of lint?" Weirdo.
"It is made up of other people's skin! It is gross, dad!" Even Hermione is beginning to move away from him.
"So brother, who is your favorite sibling?" His eyes grow wide at Rosalie's question. He knows we know he can't lie.
Instead of answering the question right away Edward tries to run but notices he is stuck to his seat. He looks to Hermione for help but she isn't budging. Yup, she is still pissed.
"Alice" he blurts out. Hey, I am hurt! How dare he?!
"Who was your first kiss?" I knew Hermione wouldn't resist for long.
"Tanya, she forced me." Hermione looks dangerous. I heard her mutter "I am going to get that bint."
"You have three choices: Cedric, Jasper, and myself. Which would you marry? Which would you kill? Which would you fuck?" tehehehehe. I am evil.
"I would definitely kill you Emmett. I would fuck Jasper because maybe he could manipulate my feeling enough not to make want to kill myself. I would marry Cedric just because that is all that is left."
"Who is your celebrity crush?" Cedric asks.
"maundryhunphrd" he mumbled.
"What was that? Alice asked.
"Audrey Hepburn" BAHAHAHAHAHA. Who is that?
"Did you steal my copy of P.S. I Love You?" Man Esme can hold a grudge. That was years ago that she was complaining about losing that movie.
"Yes." Ohhhhhh Edward you are going to get murdered.
"You are grounded! You also better return it!"
"Yes mom." Good boy.
"Have you ever stripped?" Damn Jasper! Savage.
"You know I have Jasper. It was at your bachelor party! I was nearly assaulted."
"Have you ever been arrested?" I forget Cedric doesn't know about him much.
"A few times but we always manage to escape. It is mostly because Emmett drags me into some stupid scheme." True.
"A few months ago you came home early from school and stayed in the shower for 3 hours. Why?" How can someone wank for three hours? I was generally curious.
"Mrs. Cope tried to sexually assault me."
"SHE WHAT?!" uh oh. Esme is about to go all mama bear. What else do I know Edward is embarrassed about?
"Who is your favorite singer?"
"Justin Beiber" Hermione is nowhere near sitting beside him now.
"What is your guilty pleasure?"
"The telletubbies." I knew it!
Ehh… Edward is boring now. *lightbulb* He knows stuff about everyone else though, and he can't lie.
"Do you know anything embarrassing about Carlisle and Esme?" I ask.
"Yes"
"What is it?" Carlisle and Esme look like they are going to throttle me.
"They roleplay and last time Carlisle was Little Bow Peep while Esme was the sheep."
BAHAHAHAHAHA. Now they look like they are going to throttle Edward.
"Do you have anything embarrassing on Emmett?" of course he doesn't.
"Of course." What? What could I POSSIBLY be embarrassed of?
"He made a near perfect score on his MCAT." That little Traitor.
"Emmett, you will train with me young man! How could you not tell me?" Carlisle demands. Stupid Edward. He seemed to realize he could turn the table on us.
"Alice had a pet rock and would cut pieces of Jasper's hair and glue it to it. She called it curly."
"Jasper has a secret affinity for pole dancing."
"Rosalie has a third nipple."
"Cedric…" Edward tried to continue but was cut off.
"Silencio." Cedric demanded.
"HOW DARE YOU?!" Jasper, Alice, and Rose demanded. We all stormed away.
"Hey come back! I am still stuck!" He yells. Oh well… serves him right.
HGPOV
I decided to have my library time to get away from Edward and his idiocy. What was he thinking telling my friends he was going to deflower me? I will come back in about 40 minutes to reverse the jinx. I am steadily reorganizing the books when Harry and Ron walk in and throw me off my rhythm.
"Uhh… Hey Mione."
"Hey Ron, hey Harry. Did everything go okay with Dumbledore?"
"Yeah. He just wanted to catch up. So… a soul bond?" Ron looked at his feet when he said that. I couldn't help but feel guilty.
"Yeah, it is pretty crazy. I am glad I won't be alone though. Edward is pretty great when he is not sticking his foot in his mouth."
"He chews on his own foot?" Ron looks mortified and I can't help but giggle.
"It is a muggle expression, Ronald."
"Oh, well it is weird. Even you have to admit that." Harry shook his head in agreeance. Boys.
"So you feel okay about the whole thing? I know you two don't really know each other and now you are forced to live together? Are you worried about compatibility?" Harry asked.
"You remember me saying earlier that same day I didn't want a relationship. Edward is actually a big nerd. Not someone I would picture myself with at all. Speaking of, I better go rescue him. Cedric hit him with a sticking jinx and left him in the great hall." We all laugh because we know how Cedric can be.
"Seriously boys, I love you but he makes me happy. I might not have pictured myself with him before but now I feel like somehow he is absolutely what I need. I don't think I could live without him and I never want to try"
With that I go to find Edward in the great hall. I start feeling a sickening feeling in my stomach. Is something wrong with the bond? I hurriedly open the great hall doors but Edward is nowhere in sight but he left his pants sticking to the chair.
EPOV
I thankfully made it to our room without anyone seeing me without pants. Thank God for small favors. It took me about 30 minutes or so to figure out how to escape. I leave to go tell Hermione of my escape prowess and I hear her voice coming from the library. Ron and Harry must have caught up with her.
"You remember me saying earlier that same day I didn't want a relationship. Edward is actually a big nerd. Not someone I would picture myself with at all. Speaking of, I better go rescue him. Cedric hit him with a sticking jinx and left him in the great hall." I hear their laughter and I bolt away.
She doesn't want me. Did she ever? I thought we were getting along great last night but the entire time she was making fun of me. I know I haven't been the most suave around her but I would never talk about her behind her back like that. Or manipulate her feelings.
She doesn't want me.
I hurt. It hurts.
Before I realize it I am at the top of the astronomy tower. I try to look out the window and focus on anything but the pain.
HGPOV
I start to panic. The pain is getting worse. Where is Edward? I follow his sent up the furthest tower. He must be in the astronomy tower. Why didn't he come find me? I finally see him and let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.
"Edward, I have been looking for you. Congrats on your escape. I had come to save you and you were gone." I say as I hug him from behind. He turns to me and I immediately notice that his eyes are dead on the inside. What happened?
"I am sure you were so worried." He spat at me.
"What is wrong? Why are you so angry?" I can hear my voice hitch.
"What is wrong? WHAT IS WRONG? What's wrong is that I am stuck with you as a soul mate! If this is what I waited a century for then I would rather wait a millennium than be stuck with you!"
"Why are you changing your mind? I thought we were okay?"
"Oh I am sure you did." He said with an eye roll. Why is he doing this? Why is he hurting me?
"Do me a favor and just get the fuck out of my sight. I don't want to even be near you."
I start down the steps as he requested but pause for just a minute. "Why are you trying to hurt me?" I ask him in a whisper as I look into his dead eyes.
His eyes spark for just a second. "I am only returning the favor." That is the only explanation he offers before he turns back to look at the night sky.
I am suddenly in the shower. When did I move to my room? I put on the pajamas I must have laid out and some point when I get here. After 20 minutes of lying there unthinking, unfeeling Edward comes in. He changes into pajamas, takes his potion, and lays on his side of the bed. He refuses to look at me.
"I need your hand to negate the effects of the bond." He says as he snatches my hand. He is quickly asleep. I just lay there. Not thinking. Not moving.
