Got a new chapter! Please read and review!! I love reviews!!
I do not own Twilight or anything.
I winced as I saw him stiffly walking up the path, his face was comically angry, and yet I didn't laugh. His large, muscly figure blocked the doorway, and he waited for Max to leave the house whilst biting his lip, obviously hoping he wouldn't phase.
"Well, see you at school Nessie." Max said, his voice shaking from the hard stare I was giving him.
"Yeah, bye." I muttered, not being bothered to be nice to the person that had upset Jacob so bad. And yet, even though I felt sorry for Jacob getting the wrong end of the stick, I surprisingly felt a flash of anger burn inside me, and I felt like throwing words at the boy in front of me like small, round stones, clicking and hitting him savagely. I winced at the thought whilst anger rippled through me; I knew the same was happening to Jacob.
"I have waited so long for you to grow up!" Jacob spat, his words hitting me like fire. "And you can't even wait three months for me to get to London!" He yelled, his body violently shaking. I stood still, not worried by his dangerous behaviour, even if he did phase I would be okay, I was half vampire. Speaking of vampires, my dad usually joined in a fight when I was angry with Jacob, I think he secretly enjoyed them.
"Go on Jacob! Phase! You know you want to run away! You don't understand something, so you run away! That's what's always happening! Phase, Jacob! PHASE! I don't want to even see you here anymore!" I screamed, my voice shaking, and tears threatening.
"I think I may just do that." He seethed, his voice almost composed, so I felt an urge to hype him up just a bit.
"You haven't yet! So shout the words you so want to shout! Be a wolf! 'I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down!' Remember the wolf is always bad!" I shrieked, shrewdly reminding him of the '3 little pigs' story, and doing a poor impression of the wolf.
"Woah. There are a lot of hormones there." I heard Jasper whisper to Alice. I turned around, and glared at the happy couple sitting on the sofa, Jasper pretended to whimper. When I turned back around no one was there, and all I saw was a shadowy wolf leaping into the forest in the distance.
"Argh!" I shouted, kicking the door hard with my foot, I could feel fire inside of me.
"Calm down Nessie." Alice murmured, whilst I presumed Jasper calmed me.
"He'll come back soon." She said, her voice soft and slippery like silk. I took a deep breath.
"Oh yeah, and can you see that?" I asked scornfully, still irritable.
"Look, Nessie, it's not the end of the world." Jasper soothed. I shouted again, and ran from the house, I was heading for the big house, to go and visit Lizzie. She would understand.
I leapt across the tranquil lagoon, still angry and aggressive, I don't even know why. Jacob had been in the wrong and I had done nothing. Nothing. But, I continued to tear through trees and branches, letting them try to rip at my impermeable skin. I reached the glistening white house in record time, two minutes and eight seconds.
"Hello, Nessie." Carlisle said, and I couldn't help but be polite back.
"Hey, grandpa." I greeted him, glancing around the house, whilst trying to smell Lizzie. She was definitely here, it was just odd that she didn't come and meet me straight away; we were best friends.
"How was your first day of school?" He asked, going to the kitchen that was rarely used, and turning on the kettle.
"Awful." I replied, thinking only of the short-term.
"Why, my dear what happened?" Granddad asked, and he sounded genuinely worried. I reeled off the Max and Jacob story, whilst he nodded sympathetically.
"Well, I may not be the best person to talk to this about but –"
"That's why I'm looking for Lizzie." I said, cutting him off rudely.
"Oh, she's upstairs with Edward." He replied, pouring me a cup of steaming tea, I think he was getting into the whole 'English Gentleman' role. I forgot about it, taking off up the stairs agilely.
I paused at her bedroom door, which was firmly shut, as I listened to the conversation that I thought was maybe about the secret dad knew.
"You can't get tangled up in this web, Elizabeth." Dad said, his voice ice cold.
"But I can't help myself, Edward. I just… I'm in too deep." Lizzie's usually casual voice was strained and shaky.
"You are never 'in too deep'." Dad said, he was obviously quite angry, but I couldn't understand the dynamics.
"But I… I… -" The door had swung open so that it was ajar, and dad clapped his hand over Lizzie's mouth so that she could say no more. He glared at me.
"Nessie." He said, though his voice had perked up a bit at my arrival.
"Hey dad." I decided to play it cool, 'I hadn't heard anything'.
"Hi Nessie." Lizzie said shyly, hugging me.
"Lizzie, I've done something really stupid. Jacob's really mad at me."
"Why?"
"He thought I kissed that disgusting boy Max who came to the house. Dad it was your entire fault! I wanted to get him to leave quicker!" I pushed my father, ignoring the fact that he didn't move an inch when I exerted all my force on him.
"Well, I should go, it's almost six."
"Can't be late to see mum. You only see her every single day." I mocked him, dad ruffled my hair annoyingly and left the room, grinning.
I spent the rest of the afternoon discussing how mad Jacob might be at me, by taking apart the whole of our conversation, and even body language, as we could watch it over and over again with my talent. It was around seven that we were called down for dinner. Well, I ate dinner self-consciously, whilst everyone else gathered around the table to speak about their days.
"I really like my new high-school." Rosalie said, pouring me a glass of apple-juice.
"Yeah, because all these guys keeping hitting on her." Emmett said angrily, he punched his fist on the table, causing Esme to wince. She loved the dining room table.
"Emmett, I'm not going to get into their pants, am I sweetie?" She smiled appealingly, and I think Jasper calmed Emmett, as he grinned and hugged his wife graciously.
"We all know that that ends badly!" She grinned as she smiled suggestively to Edward and Bella, whilst they grimaced. I was shocked.
"Please! I'm eating!" I shrieked. Alice swiftly changed the subject.
"Anyway you can't say 'pants' anymore." She said. "We're in England, it's 'trousers'." She put on a very posh English accent as she said the word. We all chuckled.
"The kids at your school must hate you Alice." I grinned.
"No, I compliment them on their accents. I said they were 'charming' and that we should go and have tea sometime." I laughed, and was soon joined by everyone else.
"And you know what –" Suddenly Alice paused and her body froze. Anyone who didn't know her would think she had died or something, but we all knew she was seeing a particularly vivid vision.
Jasper went through his usual routine of asking her what she saw, and glanced around the table nervously, as I speared another one of the ravioli's that I had been given.
"Tell us what you see!" He pleaded, whilst Alice shook her head slowly and sullenly.
We stood, crowed around her fragile, porcelain body while Alice muttered and moaned and eventually grinned unexpectedly.
"What did you see?" Jasper asked, voicing the thoughts I could guess we were all thinking.
"You'll see soon enough." His wife said, whilst skipping out the house, giggling quietly.
Okay, the real story will start quite soon. So, I think if this gets:
13 reviews - update on Wednesday
15 reviews - update Tuesday
17 reviews - update Monday
20 reviews - update TODAY! :)
Btw, I don't mean +17 reviews, I mean the ten I already have plus seven.
Thanks,
Milly, x
