AN: so, very short chapter. Just the phone call... hope you enjoy it!!!
Ring.....ring....ring….
"Hello?" a musical voice said from the other end of the phone.
"Hi, my name's Alice, and, well I have a problem that only you and your family can help me with."
"I'm sorry miss, I think you have the wrong number." The voice said.
"NO! I don't. Edward, you HAVE to listen to me!" Alice almost screamed, losing her composure.
"How-? How do you know my name?" He said, confused
"I'm like you and your family... I'm just more special... I need your help; I'm only a day and a half old." She said with no hint of sadness in her voice.
"Oh. Well, in that case we'll be there shortly.... wait. Where are you?" He asked.
"At Motel 12, just outside Seattle."
"Okay, see you in-"
"Two hours" She cut him off
"How did you-"
"Special, remember?" She cut him off again
"Okaaaay then... good bye. We'll see you then." He said, as if he thought she had something wrong with her, which she does, but she didn't really need to know that I thought that.
"Okay, bye." She pushed the end button then turned to us and opened her mouth to say something, but Kayla beat her there.
"OME!!!!!!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE I JUST HEARD EDWARD'S VOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OME!!!! I'm ACTUALLY going to SEE EDWARD CULLEN!!!! THE Edward Cullen!!!! Oh, what am I going to wear??? "She screamed high on the fact that she was going to actually meet THE Edward Cullen as she so put it.
I calmly walked to the table where I had left a roll of duct-tape while Alice cowered in a corner, surprisingly afraid of Kayla, or maybe it was just that her voice had gone ultra high and it was hurting her ears. Kayla was still yelling and hyperventilating when I stuck the tape to her mouth and reduced her to mumbling. However, she still mumbled animatedly about Edward.
"Thank you! I didn't know when she was going to stop!" Alice said with relief as she rose from her hiding place. She went to hug me but stopped just before when I moved back slightly. Her face betrayed her hurt though before she could cover it up,
"Just in case you can't control yourself yet." I said quickly so that I could erase her pain. I knew it had worked when I saw her face transform into one of happiness and understanding. Still, I was hung up on the comment that she had made before about not being able to see if Kayla would ever shut up.
Wow, Alice not knowing when Kayla was going to stop... now THAT was just plain sad... I thought as I stared at her disbelievingly.
By then though, Alice was sitting on the bed flipping through another phonebook.
"What are you looking for now?" I queried,
"I was just looking to see if Jasper had a cell phone listed. I can see that that search is pointless." She replied with a sigh.
Alice and I spent the next hour and a half debating how to explain what was going on to the Cullens and before heading out into the woods, Alice positioned us about a hundred feet from the meeting place and had us block out thoughts by singing Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis.
AN: I'm going to keep the actual meeting for the next chapter. Sorry, it was so short. I just wanted to get the phone call posted. Please R&R!!
