((Growls ferociously)) I am pissed right now! It's not right. See, maybe I should explain because it's definitely not because of any of you. I was supposed to go to this beach party today because for a few weeks I volunteered to be a counselor at this day camp. So I'm all excited for a really long time and I got everything ready for today. But when I get there, what do they tell me? They tell me that the freaking bus flaked out on them and we're having the beach party next Tuesday instead. Can you believe that? They had pizza and a movie to make up for it but I didn't want to stay. I'd rather write the next chapter for you guys. ((Screams in frustration)) But I was sooo excited! Oh well, I'll get over it. At least next week is going to be a great week with the beach party on Tuesday and my birthday on Thursday! I can't wait! Well enough of my rambling. Thanks for listening ;) I love all of you. And thank you for trusting me and continuing reading, I really appreciate it!
Disclaimer: How about another poem? Roses are red; Violets are blue; I don't own Twilight; but how I wish I do! ((Giggles)) These poems are the worst I've ever written.
Mike's P.O.V.
A/N: You know you want it…
What the hell, man! The fire was clawing at me; the pain excruciating. The last thing I remember was fighting with Edward and then this pain…All I want is Bella. As the pain worsened, I found myself writhing and screaming. Mostly I yelled for Bella. I don't know why…I guess I just didn't have any room for coherent thought in my mind while this fire burned through my body. It got worse with each breath I took and every heartbeat I heard. When I thought my heart was going to burst, suddenly the fire stopped and ice filled my veins instead.
I don't know, I think the ice feels worse. The rapid change from fire to ice was horrible. It kept switching back and forth for what seemed like decades. When would the pain stop?
Finally, it started dying down and I began to be aware of my surroundings. I was in a room I didn't recognize. It was huge and so much more advanced than my room at home. My room was so cramped, it was almost a closet and it was unbelievably messy. This one was spotless; I bet if you put on a glove and wiped one of the tables, you wouldn't get a speck of dust on your finger. Then, I regained my hearing, finding it was better than it had ever been. Vaguely, I heard whispering but it was so soft that even my better hearing couldn't pick up what they were saying. Finally, the fire and the ice stopped. I breathed out a sigh of relief and got up, stretching.
Where am I? What's going on? I thought, confused.
As I opened the door to exit the room, I heard, "Oh crap, he's awake." But it was so soft, I thought I imagined it. I gave myself a tour of the house until I came to a wall that was covered in photographs. It was in the hallway of the first floor as soon as you went down the stairs. I examined the pictures and I realized that I knew the people in the photographs. I let out a growl when it registered in my brain. I was in the Cullen house.
What the hell was I doing here? I let out a growl, pissed off and ready to go find Edward when I saw something that shocked me. I saw…me. But it wasn't me. I was so much paler and my features were more enhanced. I looked hotter. Yeah man, if I was hot before, now I was smoking. Bella would be unable to resist me now!
Right after I thought that, I heard a loud, furious growl coming from behind me. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Edward launch himself at me. Reflexively, I moved out of the way, causing him to fall onto the couch. For a moment, I was confused about what happened. I couldn't have moved that fast…it's humanly impossible.
"Ah, yes, but you're not a human…" Edward whispered; a smug look on his face.
What did he mean? Of course I was a human…Right?
Edward started chuckling and he was pissing me off even more. "What the hell, Cullen! What the hell am I doing in your house? Why the hell do I look different? Where the hell do you get off laughing at me? WHAT THE HELL!" Okay, yeah, I was really pissed.
All of a sudden, Edward's whole family joined him in the room, probably to stop me from doing anything. I just stared at them, confused and awed, feeling like an idiot the whole time. I couldn't stop myself, though. I had never seen them up close before. I only saw Edward that close but my anger and jealousy towards him always dominated his inhuman beauty before. Now, up close and personal I saw how beautiful they really were. Rosalie especially, damn that girl is so hot. None of them measured up to Bella though. She was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen in my life.
After a few moments, the eldest Cullen, Dr. Cullen, stepped forward. "Ah…Mike, I believe we haven't been formally introduced. I am Carlisle Cullen and this is my wife, Esme. I think you know the rest but the two blonde ones are Rosalie and Jasper Hale; they are siblings just as Alice, Emmett, and Edward are."
I realized that I was being dazzled by him so I shook my self out of it and said, "Mike Newton."
"Mike, I believe you might have some questions, but please allow us to explain first. We will answer any questions you have afterward. Okay? Just please listen…"
I nodded, unable to speak.
"Mike…you are a vampire." Those were the words that changed my life forever. They explained everything, my new abilities, my thirst, how they had to fake my death, everything. When they were done, it felt like hours had passed when it had really just been thirty minutes. I guess that when you can speak at the speed of light, conversations are a lot faster. When they were done I only had three questions.
"Okay…I have three questions. First, who bit me?" I had an idea about this, but I needed to be sure. "Second, why did they choose me? And third, where is Bella; I thought she and Cullen were inseparable…"
Timidly, Alice answered the first question. "Edward bit you."
Ah, just as I thought. I looked at Edward for the next answer. "I didn't choose you, it just…sort of happened. I was angry and it was stupid. It was a stupid, stupid mistake."
When Alice started to answer the third question, Edward roared, "He doesn't need to know! It is none of his business!"
I couldn't handle it. I couldn't be in the same room as that…that monster. I was about to pounce on him when I decided it wouldn't be the best decision; so I ran out the front door instead. I ran as hard and fast as I could, not bothering to look where I'm going. I had to clear my head. This was too much right now. After a while, I slowed down when I smelt something. It was the best thing I've smelt in my life. The monster in me took over then and I launched myself at my prey. I wasn't even thinking about it, it was pure instinct and it was the most exhilarating feeling I've had in my life and I didn't want it to stop. After killing ten more animals, my thirst felt satiated and I raced back to the Cullen house, my new house, wondering what I should do next.
Bella's P.O.V.
A/N: Because I know you're wondering where she is…
This morning, I woke up with Edward in my arms like I normally did, but I was in my room instead of Edward's. "Good morning Bella," my angel whispered, pulling me closer.
Mmmmm…I sighed as I breathed in his scent, feeling dazed. "Morning. I need a human minute…" I said, reluctantly pulling away from Edward.
When I was done, I met Edward downstairs where he had a simple bowl of cereal waiting for me. I smiled and gave him a quick kiss before sitting down and eating. While I ate, Edward told me about today's plans. He had arranged for me to go to First Beach with Jacob Black. This surprised me so much that I started choking on my cereal. Edward frowned slightly and lightly pounded on my back until I stopped. "Bella…what am I going to do with you?"
"Why…why am I going to First Beach? You hate Jacob…" I said, voicing my concern.
"You are going there because Mike can't and he is going to wake up today. I only arranged for Jacob to go with you because I knew he wouldn't refuse and I can't be there to protect you so he'll be there in my place."
I pouted half-heartedly and said, "What, you don't trust me to be safe for just a day?"
"No I don't. You can't walk over a flat surface without tripping over your own two feet. Now hurry up and finish your cereal, Jacob is almost here."
I did as I was told and sure enough, Jacob knocked on the door a minute later. "I love you Bella, stay safe…" Edward said as I walked out the door.
"I love you too," I whispered.
Now, I was at First Beach and I was having fun, just fooling around and throwing sand at Jacob just like I did on one of my trips here when I was younger. All of my worries fled my mind as I lost myself in the moment. I knew that Edward and I would deal with our problems when the time came. I felt like the world could wait…it owed me this much. Being this carefree just felt so good…
Woo-hoo! I updated as promised. Now you guys need to review. I'm going to give you a few days. Mainly because my mom wants me to focus on my party stuff so yeah…I'll update a lot if you guys want that but I like reviews. They motivate me, so the more you guys review, the faster I update. It's simple. Also, I'm happy because I finally got my own copy of Twilight. I read my friend's copy originally but I've wanted my own for so long and I finally have it. Go me! But am I the only one who is sooooo ready for New Moon to come out or what? I'm shaking in anticipation…
