I forced myself to get off the couch and go do something. I found myself in my dance studio practicing the dances for the Dolls' new songs. It's funny how a whole lot of the songs reminded me of Embry. "I Hate This Part", "Halo", "Elevator," all him.
I laughed at how "Halo" says, "I'm sorry I couldn't wear your halo, I'm sorry I couldn't be your angel, I'm sorry I didn't stroke your ego." Everyone says, now, I look like an angel, and James calls me his angel. It was pretty funny.
I heard someone walking down the whole while I was in the middle of "Bottle Pop." I loved how the time had me jumping down into the splits as Embry and Quil walked in. I didn't let them throw me off, I finished the song.
"Knock, knock," Quil smiled as I finished.
"Oh, hi," I laughed.
"I saw James slowly leave," Quil said, trying to make conversation.
"Yeah, I didn't exactly want him to leave, I cried. We haven't been apart since I brought him back. It's going to be a very long night, and to make it worse, I don't sleep. So, yeah I'm miserable. I miss him so much!"
"Oh that sucks," Quil replied.
"Yeah," I exhaled, "I love him so much!"
"When's the wedding?" Quil asked, looking at my left hand.
Embry growled.
"Haven't decided yet, but I know everything I want. I've already got a dress designed and everything." I replied.
"Am I invited?" Quil asked.
"If you be a good boy," I smiled.
"I'll try," he laughed.
Embry was silent.
"So, how's everything going in the world of the wolves?" I asked.
"Ehh, s' okay. Not too bad," Quil replied.
"…if you think the pack falling apart is okay," Embry said blankly.
"He speaks!" I said loudly.
"How's vampire world?" Quil laughed.
"Pretty nice, though I am half wolf too. It's good, though, for now."
"For now?" Quil asked.
"Rules," I replied.
"You and your rules!" Embry said angrily.
"I didn't make them!" I said defensively.
"So, how's Bella and the vampire spawn?" Quil asked.
"Bella will be waking up soon, as a vampire, and Renesmee is doing great. She's got Jacob and Rose looking out for her."
"Jacob imprinted on the baby?!" they both shouted.
"Yep! She's adorable! She's growing very fast too. She's, also, very intelligent. She's pretty amazing!" I replied.
"Not as amazing as you," Embry mumbled under his breath.
I eyed him, "I heard that." I smiled.
Embry smiled, "I speak only the truth."
"Oh! Are we finally getting along?" Quil laughed.
"I'm trying!" I laughed.
Embry laughed too.
"I want to still be friends; I want to be there for you when you need me," I said to Embry.
"Thank you," Embry said, wanting to hug me.
"Though, I still hate you," I laughed.
"Really funny!" he said and playfully pushed me.
"Quil, are you crying?" I asked.
"No!" he said defensively, "I just got something in my eye."
"Umm hmm…" I said.
"Lies!" Embry laughed.
"I'm just so happy!" Quil said through the tears.
"You're happy?! I, now, have less people to kill!" I laughed.
They laughed.
"I'm serious!" I said seriously.
"So you really did kill someone?" Embry asked.
"Yes, yes I did. You know they deserved it. You did do it too, technically."
"You drank their blood!" Embry yelled.
"I'm not gonna be wasteful! Besides, I'm not doing it for no reason! They need the payback, I need to feed."
"Do you want me to throw up?!" he replied.
"It's who I am! It's what I am, so get over it!"
"It's what you've become, you weren't born this way!"
"I might as well should have! I was meant to be this way! Doesn't anybody get that?!"
"If you were meant to be this way, you would've been born this way!"
"Why didn't I die then? Huh? I have the Quileute blood! I didn't die though did I? Nope! Not to mention I brought James back! This was all meant to be!"
"I think so too," Quil agreed, "I mean that it was meant to be."
"I was built for this life. I was born for this. You were born for this. We were born for this! I think it's perfect. For once in my life, since the last time I was with James, I'm happy! I'm actually happy!" I cried at the end.
"Well, if you're happy, nothing else matters," Quil said coming up to hug me.
"Thank you Quil," I said, wiping away my tears.
"You have…" Quil said.
"I know," I replied.
"You so different from all the others, on both sides. You're really something special," he said.
"I'm really something. I'm the only one that ever was and the only one there ever will be."
"You're awesome!" Quil laughed.
"Yes, I am!" I smiled.
"You know, you are bad, though, but awesome," Embry said.
"Oh I know I'm bad," I said.
"Oh come on! She's not that bad!" Quil said.
"Pssh!" Embry and I said in unison.
We all laughed.
"I'm a bad, bad girl, vampire, wolf, person, thingy," I laughed.
"Complicated, very complicated," Quil laughed.
"That's me!" I smiled.
"So, are you finally satisfied with your life?" Embry asked.
"Yeah, I believe so," I replied.
"He treats you well? He doesn't yell at you does he?"
"No! He's great! He loves me unconditionally, and he's just the perfect guy!"
"I'm glad you're happy," he whispered.
"It's been a while," I whispered, again, on the verge of tears.
"And you like being…"
"A vampire, bloodsucker, leech?"
"Yeah."
"Yes, I do. I love what I am now."
"But how?!" he questioned.
"I don't know…an eternity with my soul mate?"
"The blood…"
"I know it's hard to understand, but trust me, it's worth it. For me at least. They do say love will make you do some crazy things."
"Tell me a bout it!" Quil said.
"Claire," I laughed.
"He's got that kid spoiled," Embry laughed.
"Just wait till she gets around me again!" I said.
"Oh yeah, spoil her some more!" Quil replied.
"I've already got Renesmee spoiled. The kid's three days old, and she already knows to run to Aunt Shel when she wants to have fun!" I laughed.
"The kids love you!" Quil said.
"You would've been a great mom," Embry almost cried.
"Oh, well, too late now. I just wasn't supposed to be, or it would've happened about two years ago."
"What!" they yelled.
"I haven't told James yet. Hell, I just figured it out myself!"
"You and James were…"Quil said.
"Gonna have a baby?!" Embry shouted.
"Evidentially so. After he left something happened and I lost it. I didn't even know it! I probably would've had a second chance if I didn't make Carlisle turn me. Oh well, it's done now. I'm happy, so it really doesn't matter."
"You made Carlisle turn you?" Embry asked.
"Yes, I told him and everyone else, "Turn me or I'll find some random vampire to do it!' It worked!" I replied.
"Why?!" he asked.
"I was pissed, and I've been waiting like two years for it to be done. Why not then?"
"You stubborn ass!" he nearly shouted.
"What?!"
"You made him turn you to get back at us? At me?!" he shouted.
"Kinda, partly," I winced.
"You are such a cruel bitch!" he yelled.
"No shit Sherlock!" I yelled back.
"Calm down you tow!" Quil yelled.
"Calm down?! After what she did?!" Embry yelled back at Quil.
"What?! She was gonna do it anyways!" Quil replied.
"She did it to get back at us!" Embry yelled.
"She did it do defend her family!" I finally yelled. "Damn! Shut up! Like seriously, what would you have done?! You'd do anything to protect your family! I did what I knew and wanted to do! I'm a Cullen, officially, get over it!"
"How can I get over it?! You're my soul mate, but you love someone else. Now, you've become this careless, ruthless monster! I can't get over it!" Embry yelled and stormed out.
"Uggh! I'm calling James!" I yelled and stomped over to my phone.
I hit one on the speed dial and the phone rang once before James picked up.
"What? Are you okay? Did they try to hurt you? I knew I should've stayed at home! I'm on my way!"
"No, James, stay. I'm just a little pissed off, that's all. I just needed to hear your voice."
"I miss you."
"I miss you too. I wish you were here."
"I could be, just say the word."
"I don't want to ruin your bonding with the guys."
"We can bond some other time. You need me."
"But if you come. I'll lose!"
"No you won't!"
"Yes I will!"
"I'm coming home!"
"You are not ruining this trip!"
"I'll run home!"
"No! Stay there!"
"I'm coming home, and that's final! If I have to face your wrath, then oh well!"
"James…"
"Michelle…"
"You're being difficult!"
"You're being stubborn!"
"I'm being a big baby, it's nothing! I'll just put my big girl panties on, and I'll be fine!"
Quil busted out laughing.
"Who's that?" James asked.
"Quil." I replied.
"What about the other one?"
"Embry?"
"Yeah, him."
"He left."
"He's the reason you're pissed?"
"Yeah, kinda…" "Want me to kick his ass?" he said in a baby voice.
"No, it's fine!" I smiled.
"Okay, but I'm still coming home."
"No you're not!" I yelled.
"Bye baby. I love you!" James said then hung up the phone.
"Damn it!" I yelled.
"It's so fun listening to you two argue!" Quil laughed.
"Oh yeah, ha, ha!" I said sarcastically.
"I think its pretty cute!" he laughed.
"I think I'm getting ready to break your nose, let it heal, and break it again!" I growled.
"Violent, aren't we?" he laughed.
"Oh, shut up Quil!" I pouted and stomped away.
"Someone's being a drama queen!"
"Someone's not taking someone else seriously!" I said sarcastically.
"Oh, come on! It's all in good fun!"
"I'm pretty pissed off right now, so fun is not a good thing right now."
"Oh, cheer up Michelle!"
"That's pretty hard to do!"
"I'm pretty sure you will find something to do to cheer you up!" Quil winked.
"Oh you know me better than I thought you did buddy!" I smiled and slapped his shoulder.
"Just take your aggression out on him," he smiled.
"Oh my lil' virgin Quil, giving me ideas! What have you been doing?" I smiled and questioned him.
"I haven't been doing anything, but I know someone who has! Cough, you, cough!"
"Shut up Quil!" I laughed.
"I have a feeling I should leave before he gets here I don't wanna hold up any "venting"!"
"Shut up Quil!" I laughed.
"Bom chicka wah wah!" Quil said as he did some pelvic thrusts and whipped an invisible ass.
"Oh my god Quil!" I shrieked and laughed.
"Put on some Pretty Ricky or something."
"God! You're getting worse than Emmett!"
"It's gonna be like a porno movie in here!"
"Quil!" I laughed uncontrollably and punched his arm.
"Look at that! I cheered you up!" he smiled.
"Quil! You so crazy!" I hugged him.
"I know, I know. Just remember to tell him, 'I wanna be played like a sweet guitar…played like a slow jam in the dark. Gotta find the groove…you know what to do to get to me…"Quil sang.
"Ashley! Someone's been listening to their PCD CD's!" I smiled.
"Gotta have something to remind me of you," he smiled.
"Aww. I don't know what to say to them. I mean, come on! Look at me!" I pointed to my eyes.
"Maybe you can figure something out…you can do anything!"
"Eh, I don't know."
"Stop drinking human blood, for instance."
"My eyes were blue-green Quil! Gold…that's a bit different…don't cha thing?!"
"Contacts?"
"It will take forever for my eyes to turn. The red would turn blue purple, and the green…I don't know what…"
"What about your powers? You can do anything…remember?"
"Oh yeah!" I smiled. "What color are they now?"
Quil smiled, "Blue-green."
"Yes! I can hide it from the humans!"
"You still are angelic, though, even though you were before. It just magnified times a million!" he laughed.
"Lovely…oh well!" I smiled.
"You are truly beautiful. James is a lucky man, vampire."
"Aww! Thank you!" I smiled and kissed Quil on the cheek, he blushed.
"Well, hey, now you can call them or something." he said after a small period of silence.
"Yeah, I can. I should call Kimberly."
I picked up the phone and called Kim. It rang a few minutes, then she picked up.
"You're alive!" Kim almost yelled.
"Sorry, I've been busy."
"Doing what?" she asked suspiciously.
"A lot of things. Lately, showing my fiancé how much I love him."
"You're engaged?! To who?! Why didn't you tell me?!" She yelled. "Ashley! Michelle's engaged!"
"No way!" Ashley squealed.
"Seriously?!" I heard Nicole say.
"Seriously! His name is James." I replied.
"Is he cute?!" Jessica asked.
"He's fucking sexy as hell!" I said.
"Picture?" Kim asked.
"I'll send one. Hold on," I said and found a hot picture of James with his shirt off.
"Oh my god!" they all said in unison as they looked at the picture.
"I bet the two of you look so good together!" Melody commented.
"Want to see?" I asked.
"Yes!" Nicole said.
I sent the cutest picture of James and me sitting on the couch at the family house.
"Aww!" Ashley cooed.
"Look at the way he looks at her!" Kim said.
"When's the wedding?" Jessica asked.
"Not sure yet. But I know one thing. Ya'll better be my bride's maids! I'm gonna have a whole lot of them!" I laughed.
"Of course we will!" Kim said.
"I've already got, pretty much, everything in my head. My dress, for sure. Really, the only thing I'm unsure of is the bride's maids and maid of honor dress." I said.
"Who's gonna be your maid of honor?" Kim asked.
"One of my sisters. Probably my sister Alice. I may have two, my sisters Alice and Rosalie." I replied.
"Sisters?!" Ashley asked surprisingly.
"I got adopted into the best family ever! They are my real family; I don't care where I came from."
"Aww!" they all said.
"I'm glad you're happy!" Kim said.
"Thanks!" I replied.
"Baby?" I heard James call from the living room.
"In the dance studio!" I called back.
"Well, I think I should go," Quil spoke up.
"Okay, Quil. Kim, girls, I gotta go." I said.
"Okay," Kim replied.
"Bye."
"Bye," Kim said.
James walked into the room and took me into his arms. I couldn't even speak because he took my mouth. I wrapped my around his neck and he tangled his fingers into my hair.
"James!" I gasped as I pulled away.
"What?" he smiled.
"You idiot!" I laughed.
"You still love me," he smiled.
"That's true. I'm still mad though."
"You still love me…that's all that matters."
"Yes," I said before I gasped and fell to the floor in pain.
"Baby!" I heard James yell before I blacked out.
