A/N Jacob is not a wolf in this story. He might be in the next one . . .
Chapter 9
Edward POV
"Family meeting" Carlisle said. Every time Max leaves we have a family meeting. It's starting to get annoying. "Anyone have a clue about what she is?"
"She must be part bird or something" Rosalie said "Remember what she said when I asked her why Angel changed her appearance to a bird she said 'It fits character'"
"That makes sense but what about the other clues?" Carlisle said
I got it. I know what the secret is. She said she's an angel that wasn't sent from heaven. Angels have wings. Birds have wings. She said that birds fit her character. She must have wings but if I tell them they'll think I'm crazy. I'll keep this to myself until I prove it right.
"Edward? Do you have an idea?" Carlisle asked
"No nothing comes to mind" I lied. I'll have to ask her when nobody's around to hear. . .
Max POV
We made it home in time to order a pizza and had it delivered right before they came. I really hate when people come over to my house I have to act like a normal person. Hopefully they're not crazy scientists from the school that were friends with Jeb. But that would be too specific.
Knock Knock.
Great they're here.
I opened the door.
"Max?" someone said
I looked up to his face "Jake?"
(A/N they know each other from when Max went to the beach!)
"You two know each other?" asked a small man in a wheel chair.
"Yeah we met at the beach in La Push. You must be Billy" I said shaking his hand "Come in" I made space so they could get in.
"It's nice to meet you Max" Billy said "Don't you have a sister?"
"Yes I do I don't know where Ella is. This house is like a maze sometimes"
"Do you like it here in Forks?" Billy asked
"It's okay but I'm not one to stay in one place for long" I said
"You like to travel?" Jake asked
"Yeah all over the world"
"That's cool"
"What's cool?" Ella asked as she walked over to us.
"Me traveling" I said "Ella meet Billy and Jake Black"
"Nice to meet you" she said
1 hour later. . .
"Bye Max and Ella" Jake said as we walked to their car.
"Bye Jake, bye Billy" Me and Ella said at the same time
"Bye Max remember you can always come down to La Push if you're bored"
"Bye Billy thank you for coming" I said waving them goodbye. I watched them leave until they were out of site and walked back inside. I sighed. I never get to have friends for long. They die or I have to leave them for their own good. Just like the flock and Ari died and I left J.J back in Virginia and never saw her again. I can't go to school tomorrow I brought back to many memories. If I don't go to school I'll have to find someone to pick Ella up from school.
I ran upstairs and grabbed my cell phone and called Edward.
Edward POV
I was playing my piano thinking about my theory of Max having wings. It made no since but it's possible. Then my phone rang it was Max. She's the only person who calls me out of my family.
Cell phone conversation
Hello-Me
Edward can you do me a favor-Max
Sure what do you need-Me
I'm not gonna be at school tomorrow. So could you pick Ella up from the middle school sense Alice is taking her shopping-Max
Sure I'll tell Alice to pick her up-me
Thank you Edward-Max
No problem-me
Bye-Max
Bye-me
End of conversation
Max isn't going to school tomorrow perfect. I'll go to her house and tell her my theory. But I wonder why she's not going to school well I'll just have to find out.
"Alice" I said as I walked over to her
"I know you want me to pick up Ella from school tomorrow" she said
"Okay" I said
"You and Max aren't gonna be at school tomorrow" her eyes were full of curiosity "What could that possibly be for?"
"You tell me you're the future teller" I said walking away from her and into my room. She might be on to me.
Maybe I am stalking Max. But I doesn't matter I'm a vampire that makes up for it. I wonder why I'm drawn to her.
Max POV the next morning
I woke up with a huge headache of course I always do on this day of the year. I really didn't feel like getting up today but I have to take Ella to school. I got up and toke a cold shower just to wake me up. I put on some shorts and a jacket. I felt like crap. I wish this sorry day would just end. Ella was already in the kitchen.
"Alice is gonna pick you up from school today so you can go shopping" I said walking toward her
"Okay. Are you gonna be okay here by yourself today?" she asked
"Yes I'll be okay I might go flying in the mountains"
"Alright be careful" she put on my helmet and we walked to the garage.
"Ella when am I not careful" I said getting on my motorcycle
"What are you talking about your never careful" she said getting on
"Whatever you know what I mean" I said driving down road
When we got to the school she toke off my helmet and sighed. She looked a little sad
"Is someone messing with you?" I asked her
"No not really" she said.
"Well if they are tell them your sister will kick their ass got it" I said smiling
"Okay" she said smiling and walking off. I watched her disappear into the school and drove home. When I got home I didn't bother to put my motorcycle in the garage. I toke off my jacket and unfolded my wings and toke off toward the mountains. It felt so good to fly. Just to fly away from my problems but they always come back. I landed in a clearing that was next to a cliff that overlooked the ocean. It was beautiful. I sat down in the middle of the clearing and folded my wings in. I listened to the waves go back and forth. I didn't realize I was crying until I felt a tear drop on my hand. I pulled my knees up to my chest and put my arms around them. I sat there crying into my knees wishing someone was there to comfort me like Fang did when I was upset. Then I felt a cold hand on my shoulder. I looked up to see Edward. But who else would it be. He sat down next to me and wiped the tears from my cheeks. He is such a sweet heart. I leaned against his chest and he wrapped his arms around me. He held me tighter and we stayed like that for a few hours.
"I know the secret" he whispered "You have wings"
Dang he's got it all figured out.
"Your right" I said looking up at him "Only you know?"
"Yeah I figured it out yesterday after you left. I didn't tell anyone because it seemed like a weird idea" he said smiling down at me
"It is weird. I'm a freak" I said and stood up unfolding my wings.
He looked at my wings. "Well if you're a freak I'm a monster"
"You're not a monster" I said
"Then you're not a freak" he said.
"Thank you Edward" I said and hugged him. I think he was afraid to hug me back cause of my wings. I folded them in and he hugged me back. I let go and looked at him and he looked down at me. I noticed how much taller he is than me. I hate being short. Then I realized he was leaning toward me and I was leaning closer to him. His ice cold lips crushed against mine. The only thought in my head was oh God we're kissing nothing could ruin this moment.
Max I hope you know what you're getting in to. . . Of course the Voice would come.
What are you talking about voice? I thought back
Just because the Cullen's won't hurt you doesn't mean other vampires won't
What other vampires
. . . . . . .
Of course you're quiet when I want an answer. Whatever.
Wait I'm still kissing Edward I forgot. We broke apart minutes later when a burst of sun came out of the clouds. He started to run towards the shadows but I grabbed his hand before he could. I pulled him into the light. He started glittering like diamonds were on his skin. He looked so umm I don't know the word. Whatever the word is it means retarded and funny at the same time. I couldn't help myself I busted out laughing.
"Why are you laughing?" He asked me
"You look so retarded" I said still laughing.
"You're calling a sparkling vampire retarded. You have wings attached to your back"
"So I can hide my wings. At least I don't sparkle like a disco ball in the sun"
"Ha ha I sparkle. Are you done laughing?"
"Yeah I'm done laughing" I said "I feel so much better now"
"Why are you out here anyway?"
"Today is not a good day for me"
"Family member passed?"
I nodded no need to go through depression explaining it to him. "I got to go eat something. I'm starving"
"Can I come?"
"Sure why not. When I take off in the air don't stand there like a idiot" I said jumping into the air
"Okay" he said and sped into the forest. I didn't want to look slow so I flew in hyper speed or whatever it's called. All I know is that I was going fast. Thankfully we got there at the same time. I landed next to him. I think he wasn't over the wings attached to my back thing so I folded them in and put on my jacket that was lying next to my motorcycle.
We walked inside and Edward followed me into the kitchen. I pulled out tub of Oreo's cookies n cream ice cream and a spoon. We walked in the living room and sat on the couch. I started eating it.
"You're not gonna put it in a bowl?" he asked looking at my ice cream.
"There's no point in doing that I'm gonna eat all the ice cream" I said putting another spoonful into my mouth.
"Do you eat a lot when you're depressed or is that normal?" he asked
"Yeah I eat like this all the time." I said still eating I was half way done
"How are you skinny? Do work out overtime or what?"
"No. I'm not sure something to me being 98% human and 2% bird or me flying." I said getting up and throwing away the empty tub of ice cream "I'm not a scientist"
"I'll have to ask Carlisle about that. Anyway what do you want to do?" he asked getting up.
"I don't care. I know you're gonna take me to your house and there'll be questions and flying and all that crazy crap." I said rolling my eyes
"Yeah your probably right" he said "Come one lets go"
"No way I'm not presentable" I said
"Fine I'll see you there" he said then I was alone.
What have I gotten myself into?
