Mother
Bella didn't know what to say, good thing Edward was behind her and can hear all my mother's thoughts. "Yes, Ben is here." I skipped to the door my strawberry blond curls bounced on my shoulders I was truly acting like I was 13, I laughed at myself for that. Bella and Edward stepped aside and stood behind me they weren't going to leave me with her alone, "Hey, Bena," I knew it was my mom I could tell. Her smile, her hair were all like mine, I pulled a picture out of my pocket. Father gave it to me because I keep on asking questions about her. The only thing different were her eyes no longer the green color but the golden ones. No wonder she left, I thought to myself. "So are you going to invite me in," she asked with a smile so sweet that a rock would melt, I wanted to ask one question before I was going to let her in.
"Quando il mio compleano?(When is my birthday?)" I said, my mother should know Italian, at least that's what my dad told me
"That easy," she said still smiling, "April 14th" she said with ease.
We let her in I stood close to Edward and Bella. Charlie had left when we were at the door he got a call. "So, how have you been, I see you are staying with Bel-,"
"No," I said, "I'm staying with Edward,"
"Edward?" I pointed to Edward for her, "Oh Edward," she said but then spoke in a different language, one I didn't know, I think it was french. "Nice to final meet you, John," I cringed at the name of my father on her lips, "told me a lot about you,"
"Nice to meet you to," Edward said shaking her hand, I moved towards the table were my sandwich was. I sat down and finished it, while Bella, Edward and my mother talked about me. It seemed like she was the perfect mother sweet and kind. The one that would bake you chocolate chip cookies when you came home from school. But she was always like that even in the faint memories of her.
"So, Amber," I started she frowned at me "I mean mom, how old are you?"
"Why would you want to know such a question?" she doesn't know I know she changed. I was eating and Edward didn't say anything about it.
"You think I don't know, look at your eyes, your skin," I said, she didn't say anything, "I lived with Edward, mother, you would think I would now right? And anyway I should know I'm changed too. You can't tell right now that I'm sick but even ask Edward." She looked at Edward with a 'is this true' stare, He nodded.
"I'm 26, quanti anni hai?( how old are you?)" she asked
"I'm 15," she was surprised but didn't show it cause I did look 13. It was wired how this was all playing out, it seemed like she just missed a year or two instead of the full eight that she did.
"So, why did you come back now? How did you know where to find me?"
"I knew these questions would come up. Umm….I wanted to come back sooner but I couldn't I wanted to make sure that I wasn't going to hurt you and your brother so I tested myself every year by walking in a store or something that had a strong smell of human blood. Until now I never passed it. The answer to how did I find you was that umm… I'm a tracker." Wow what's a shocker, ( no sarcasm intened) that wouldn't of been my first guess more like I hear about you dad death tears, and the only person that he will trust with his kids would be his brother Charlie. " And I also have a question for you, said you were sick? What do you mean by sick because we both know we can't get sick."
"Well it my power per say, it changes me back to a human ,kind of, by the site of blood." I waited to see her reaction before I went on, it was like she didn't hear a word I said, "Well kind of,' i repeated "my heart beats for the five minutes then stop my skin and eyes change color and I get hungry. But it wearing off now, I'm going to go hunting soon, I'm getting thirsty," I told that more to Edward.
"And don't forget the sleeping," he told me, I smiled
Career Day
My mother, Bella, Edward and I talked a little more about my sickness, school, stuff and that she missed. I like my mom a lot, she really nice- I know that was wired to say that my mother is nice but she is. After that we went back to the Cullen's house, it was something, my mother meet everybody else. Carlisle did some tests on me before we went hunting. My mother seem to like them, my mom is easy to be around, I guess, I only just reunited with her 2 hours ago.
I was getting better, to my normal vamp-self, and my mom never left since the day we meet, three day ago. Now I'm going back to school, it's eat with the Adam day. Then when she found out it was career day? Emmett gonna pay for that. My mother discided to come and talk about her job. You are asking what actually is it hah I wish I knew, she said it was a surprise, Oh God please help me. You are also wondering did you tell her about how her job has to be something far away because that what you told Adam, don't worry I told her. She is going to be showing what she does 8th period right after lunch.
Once I got into the school everyone was talking about my mother, who's mom is that? I wish that was my mom. Oh baby that mom is H-O-T. I rolled my eyes at the last one. This is how this career thing worked you follow your kid around until you do your speech then you go home. So all day I had to hear that and don't forget the ones Edward told me because people wouldn't dare say these ones out loud: "How old is she, she must have had her kid when she was 14?- I hated that one-Is she married I want to ask her out?-that one was from my Social Studies teacher, I'm sacred ,I know.
It was finally lunch time, I want to sit with the Cullens today but stupid Brian, one of the boys that sat with Adam, was like all, don't you remember you sit with us today. I was going to punch him but then my mother said come on Ben I want to see you friends. "But I thought you want to sit here," I said
"No, that's okay," she said in that rock melting voice. We followed Brian to the table, here comes all the questions.
"Hi, Ms. Smith," Adam said, "I see you got back from your job,"
"Yeah, I'm on break," my mother said with a smile
"Mom, this is Adam," I told her I wasn't going to tell her anyone else but I said why not, "And this is Billy, Connor, Ryan, Matt, Joe and Brian you meet," they all wave and said hi
"So do you sit here everyday?" my mom asked
"No,"
"She sits with us every other day," Connor said
"Oh, okay,"
"So, what do you do?" Connor asked, my mother laughed
"You will find out next hour," she answered, "May you excuse me. I have to go use the bathroom."
"Yeah, sure," Connor said, why would my mother need to use the bathroom? My mother got up and made her way toward the bathroom. "I like your mom she really nice. To bad you don't see her all the time," Connor said
"Yeah, to bad," I said and I meant it, I just found out my mother was still live four days ago and she like my best friend, no matter what happens next hour.
"You guys really look a like, you could be her twin without the age difference," Connor said, I never here that before but he was right if a really looked my age I could be almost my mother's twin. For once his comment/question wasn't annoying or unimportant/
"Oh thank you," if I was still sick I would blush. My mother came back from the 'bathroom' and we talked some more, Connor tried with all his might to find out my mother's mystery job. She was really good at making it a surprise, the bell rang, here it comes 6th hour, has final come.
Job
I walked into the classroom, my mother already there standing in the front of the room. She changed from her jeans and a fitted shirt to a A-line skirt and a nice blouse. The bell rang, all the kids mumbled about my mother's job, some ruder then others.
"Good afternoon class," my mother began, "I'm Bena's mother, and I'm here to talk about what I do for a living," kids mumble, I roll my eyes. My mom gave them a serious look and said, "don't worry my not a ," I closed my eyes shut oh no she not! This is my first time my mother ever embarrassed me, "striper," she did it, and the hole class cracked up, I buried my face in my hands and shook my head.
"So, what do you do then?" a boy shouted out, I think it was a kid, named Eric
"I'm a translator," I looked up a translator that actually works, she travels for different events and she did know how to speak like 4 different languages. "I translate in 4 different languages: French, Italian, German and Irish. It a really good job, you get to travel and talk at the same time," the classed laughed, I smiled, "You also have to be a good listener, and know a lot of languages," I was so proud and happy of my mother her job was prefect! "does the class has any questions," A lot of people raised there hands. "umm…….you," my mother pointed to Emily, a girl that dies her hair, like every month.
"Umm.. how much do you get paid?" hopefully my mother did her homework
"Well it depends on who you are translating for, when I translate for a president I get paid more then if I translate for a convention," other people got their questions answered. My mother was so good at this a was so surprised. I liked it when one kid asked her to speak Italian. She said: Mi chaima Amber Smith e sono madre di Bena Elizabeta , which means my name is Amber Smith and I'm Bena Elizabeth's mother. These was the first time I was officially happy that she came back.
Today is my 16th birthday, but they don't say birthdays, cause they would have hundreds. I called it 1 year dead but my mother still calls them birthdays though, yeah I know, she's still here she's part of the family now. Emmett said he's going to teach me how to drive, I just got my permit a few days ago. Emmett still scares me but not as much as before. So here I am in my new black Audi, Edward, Alice and Bella for got me. I was taping my finger on the steering wheel. Jasper was seating in the back just in case I start freaking out.
"Okay, you ready," Emmett said, I nodded, I can do these, I told myself "Put it in reverse and back out," he told me, I slowly back out, " Good now put in drive," the nerves flooded though me but then I felt the wave of clam Jasper sent. I turned in to the street, first I was crawling it felt like I wasn't even moving I looked I was going 40 I pressed on the gas now I was going 50..60..70..80..90..100…120..140. "Good job," he laughed and smiled. Then I saw a traffic light coming up it was yellow I was decreasing speed. Then it went to red, "What are you doing?!" Emmett said
"It was yellow it means slow down, right?" I asked was I wrong I think I got that one right on the test.
"Yeah, it does," Jasper said
"So what's the problem," I said confused, it went to green I speed along
"Well we don't use those definitions," I was still puzzled, "Green means go," Emmett started
"I know that," I said, making a left turn
"I'm not done," I huffed, "yellow means speed up and red means-,"
"Stop," I said getting it
"Well whatever you say we never get to red to know what it means," Emmett said, I just shook my head. We were back at the house,
"Whatever Emmett," I said as we got out the car
