Hey guys, me again. Thank you so so much to Tomboy25 for reviewing. I wasn't going to continue this until I realized you reviewed, but now I will!(: So here's the first chapter. It's still a little vague, but the beginning of stories are always really hard for me to write. Please review! Enjoy!
Today I'm at my mom's house. She's too busy throwing a huge Christmas party to even recognize that I'm here. So, I'm sitting in the baby's room, making baby noises at her. I would hate me if I were her, I sounded extremely annoying. "Oh Leila, I wish you didn't have to grow up here. I wish you didn't have to have our mother to care for you." I whispered to her, leaning my head against her pink crib. Her husband, Jim, wasn't half-bad, but my mother herself was getting sluttier and bitchier with age. God I hated her.
I gently picked the baby up and placed her on my lap. She looked so sweet and innocent, staring wide-eyed up at me, a giggle escaping her small pink lips. I grinned at her and leaned back, humming a lullaby I didn't know the name of. "I'm going to make you a promise right now baby girl." I whispered softly into her ear, her new brown fluff of hair tickling my nose. "I'll have you out of here by the time you're 5. I'll get the money by then, and we'll be gone. I'll build a whole new life for us. I'll be your mom. I'll take care of you like our mother can't. We can have a happy ending, I just know it." I gently drew circles in her back and kissed her forehead before placing her back into her crib. "Sleep now, baby. Love you." I took one more glance at her angelic face, watching her eyes flutter closed, and walked out silently.
As I shut the door, I turned around and ran straight into someone. "Oh God, I'm sorry." I said, looking up to see the face of the person.
He looked about 18. He had black hair and had creepily white skin. His eyes were an odd shade of red. Must be contacts. Overall, he was absolutely beautiful. "No problem, beautiful." He murmured, smiling softly at me. "Is this your house? It's nice."
"Yeah, thank you." I replied, feeling slightly awkward, standing next to this gorgeous guy. Although, I felt the odd urge to step closer. I did, but only slightly.
He gently pushed back a stray strand of my hair. "My name's Leo. What's yours, beautiful?"
I felt like I could melt in his eyes. He had this effect on me, making me want to wrap my arms around him and kiss him right there. "Juliet." I started absentmindedly twirling my hair around my index finger. It's weird though, I never do that…
"Well, Juliet, would you like to go for a walk with me?" His eyes, though they were such an odd, frightening color, were somehow warm and welcoming. I unknowingly stepped forward and took his hand, beginning to lead him down the stairs.
I blinked a few times, dumbfounded. Why had I just done that? Gosh, I really was going out on a limb today. Talking to an older boy, flirting with him, taking his hand? I shrugged the strange feeling off, figuring it was just instinct or impulse or something.
Leo took the lead and walked us out the front door. "DO you need to talk to your mom or dad before we go?" He asked, his voice so honey-sweet.
"No." I replied quickly. My mom was probably passed out on the floor somewhere by now. "Let's go."
This was where my mind started to go fuzzy. I was laying here, in the darkness, reliving what had happened to me. Too bad I couldn't remember past that point.
I don't know how long I've been laying here, screaming in pain. It could have been minutes, days, weeks, months, years. All I knew now, was that it was fading. My body was starting to cool down, the fiery heat fading away from inside of me.
I opened my eyes. At that moment, I was looking for one thing. That silver moon. I wanted to see it again. It had filled my mind while I was laying in agony. It was everything I knew.
But I didn't see my moon. What I did see sent a shiver down my spine. I leaped back and let out a growl that scared myself. "Stay away from me." I growled, glaring at him. I don't know what he did to me, but I know it was bad.
He backed up, a small smile on his lips. "Okay, my Juliet. My god, you are beautiful." He cooed, his voiced soft and overly sweet.
"Shut up!" I screeched, suppressing the sudden urge to leap at his throat. I paused for a moment, realizing the beautiful, sing-song sound of my voice. He smiled even wider, flashing white teeth. "What. Did. You. Do. To. Me?" I hissed, pronouncing each word separately.
He stepped forward and stretched out a hand. "I made you into something beautiful, Juliet. Something amazing. Now, we can be together forever. I'll teach you everything you need to know." Suddenly, he was inches from my face, as if he transported there.
"Get away!" I cried, shoving him. Surprisingly, he was sent flying back into a tree. I was about to scream in horror, when he got up easily.
"You are a feisty one, aren't you?" He said. "Come now, I'll take you for something to…eat." I flinched at the way he said eat. He was walking toward me again.
I was suddenly so angry I was sure I'd scream. But I didn't. My mind flickered, imagining him walking away and not coming back. I wished he would.
"Come on-" He cut off as he abruptly turned and started walking in the opposite direction of me. He stared back at me, confusion filling his red eyes. "What the fu-" He kept looking from me to his feet. It seemed forced, like he was trying not to walk away. What the hell was he doing?
After a few moments, he was gone, unseen from behind rows of trees. I looked side to side, absolutely freaked out. I 'hmphed' and started walking away, quickly noting how gracefully I was moving. I took a deep breath, taking in the smells around me. Something smelled delicious. I looked around, but saw nothing but trees and a few birds overhead. I smelled something else too. Something else that just smelled…familiar. I started running to it.
Woah! I gazed on either side of me, the world was flying by. I was running fast, faster than I'd ever run, faster than Olympic sprinters. Fast.
The smell was getting closer. It smelled so warm, like home. I ran faster, if that was even possible. The funny thing was, nothing got blurry. The trees I was speeding past stayed just as clear as when I was standing-which was amazing. Everything was clearer than usual, crazily sharp and real. I wonder if this is a dream.
I froze suddenly. The smell was here, maybe 20 or 30 feet away, and it was almost overwhelmingly strong. I walked forward, my pace slow and calm, even though I was screaming in fear and confusion on the inside. I don't know just what I was scared of, but I was.
And then I saw them.
I hope you guys liked the chapter! Pretty Please review, it would make my day AND it would make me write an even better chapter next. If you have any ideas of any kind, PM me! I'm also open to new characters if you have any for me. This will have all the Twilight characters (including Renesmee), but I'd be happy to add non-book characters into it as well. So, PM me with character ideas too. Thanks lots!
Hugs and Kisses!
