chapter 4

We left for school the next morning. The roads were covered in ice and a fine layer of snow coated the ground and tree tops. When we got there my siblings headed inside while I waited in the parking lot until the bell Alice stayed with me though. After a couple minutes Hope came into view parking her truck and getting out. She walked around to the other side of her truck and a loud screech could be heard. her head snapped up toward the noise, Tyler's van came into the parking lot sliding around on the ice headed right towards Hope Marshall. I didn't even have time to think about the consequences before I ran across the lot toward Hope pulling her out of the way of the van shoving it in the opposite direction. "What the" she muttered sitting up. Then she took in the situation before her "well damn it" she continued. The EMT got there not long after. The first person to get through to us was a woman I had never seen before. She turned to look Hope in the eye " you okay?" she asked. Hope just shrugged "all good aunt Keelin," she answered. Aunt? I thought but shook that off to focus on what was going on around me. lets just say fifteen minutes later Tyler was on a stretcher in the ambulance while Hope and I were sitting next to him on the floor of said ambulance while Hope seemed quite mad about her involvement in the situation. During the time the EMTs were getting Tyler out of the van and onto the stretcher, Hope and her aunt had argued about why she had to go to the ER rather than class. The first thing I did when we got there was find Carlisle if I had just exposed us he needed to know. Locating him wasn't difficult; he was in his office. His head snapped up when he heard the door open. "Are you alright?" he asked, "what's happened?" "There was an accident," I answered before launching into the story of what happened this morning. Once I had finished he pondered for a moment and determined that this was a conversation we needed to have at home with everyone present and we didn't know she saw anything yet. Hope and Tyler had been looked at and a man was standing next to the hospital bed Hope occupied while they spoke and some sort of cellar and her parents being unavailable. The man was black with a buzz cut, stubble and was wearing jeans and a T-shirt. When her chart was signed and Carlise had questioned her about her injuries, the man noticed the curious glance I was giving him. He held out his hand for me to shake. I gripped it cautiously. "Marcel" he introduced himself "I'm Hope's brother" in return I nodded and shook his hand. Then my focus turned to "Hope may I speak with you?" I asked her. "Sure," she answered. I led her through the halls to somewhere we wouldn't be overheard. When I finally stopped and turned to face her she smiled "what's up?" she asked. "What is up with your family?" I asked in return. "can't tell you that" "why?" just that one word somehow made her lose her temper. "Look vampboy one would think that you would understand a secret would be important to keep" was it my imagination or were the lights flickering? She stopped talking and took a moment to calm herself when she spoke again the sound contained a lot less rage. "Look I can't tell you but if you want a hint I'm a sort of unicorn and if you can figure out my dad's last name that might help out, I gotta get home. See you tomorrow I guess?" Well that was so much help I thought sarcastically. Before heading back to school. The afternoon passed in a blur as I tried to make sense of Hope's words to no avail and way too soon we were in the car on our way home where presumably hell would break loose.

Chapter four for ya just got my first review and I can try to make the chapters longer. My only worry is that it will seem like too much detail or subject for one chapter. If anyone has any other ideas be sure to leave a review and I will take them into account
