Deepest Darkest Depths.
Chapter Two;
Pleasure and Pain.
LPOV (Lena)
The music washed through me like a great wave. Tom held me against his stony chest as we moved in time with the music. I noticed Edwards face as Bella pulled him up to dance; it was incredible how much love could pass between them in a matter of seconds. It made both Tom and I smile as they joined us on the dance floor. Bella had a wicked grin on her face as she danced. She knew the effect she had on Edward; she said it was her 'revenge', I never could understand what she meant by that.
I turned to face Tom and nodded towards the door. He grinned as he looked at my two 'cousins' dancing, already in their own personal bubble.
"Let's go," I took Toms hand and led him off the floor, passed all the annoying sweaty humans, and we were outside within 5 seconds.
"Now what?" Tom studies my face carefully for a hint, even though I he knew I never gave anything away. His features changed to reveal my favourite inquisitive grin as he realised I was having one of my scathingly brilliant ideas.
I looked over to the two motorbikes we had been given as wedding presents a couple of months ago. With me being babysat most of my Vampire life, we hadn't really had the opportunity to ride and try them out…
"They'll be mad at you y'know." Even though we both knew he was right, Tom and I still walked over to the mechanical beasts without so much as a hesitation.
"We'll be back before they get home." As I climbed onto my cherry red Triumph Bonneville, I remembered I still had to pay back Bella for convincing the others to allow us to have the magnificent machines.
Tom revved up his black Harley Davidson Electra Glide. I could hear the long line of people behind us gasp in awe, like they would at a fireworks display. Neither of us could help but smile; most people would give anything to just sit on these classics.
As we rode off, the wind blowing through my hair, I couldn't stop the laughter as the excitement took over my system. I wondered could have made Bella stop, it was so exhilarating! Before I could try to remember, we pulled up to a lay-by in the road; we were already on the outskirts of Seattle.
"Do you think we should go back? I mean the others are sure to have noticed our absence by now." Tom looked concerned, but I could hear the hope in his voice that I would say no.
"Yeah, ok," His face fell slightly. "Tell you what, I'll race you home. The last one has to eat human food!" I grinned at the freedom I was experiencing.
"Ha ha! You looked just like Emmett then!" Tom started to laugh, but stopped abruptly as I pounced on him and pinned him to the ground.
We wrestled around in the dirt, fighting playfully with each other as we so often did. We both stopped and looked up as we heard a familiar car pull up.
"Do you two have ANY idea of how much worry and panic you just put us all through?
An angry Rosalie was not a force to be reckoned with.
"But surely, Alice saw we would be alright?"
I stood up as I realised that the expression on Rose's face was not that of anger or worry, but of confusion and doubt.
"She saw you two leave, then the rest, well, that's all she saw. Besides, you both should have known better." Rosalie turned back to her car, but I felt as though the lecture wasn't over. Tom and I both knew that she was keeping something from us, but neither of us wanted to ask what.
She sighed, and I knew we were going to find out regardless.
"Your futures vanished, how were we to know you'd both be safe? Stuff like that has only happened a few times before," She was more or less talking to herself now. "And that's because the werewolves were involved." She added thoughtfully.
Tom and I released a low growl at the words, even though the local pack and we coexisted without any problems. But we had both heard the pain and hurt in Bella's voice whenever she spoke of her old friend Jacob. The hurt and sadness was apparent in Edwards's eyes when she had to explain why.
We climbed onto our bikes again, with Rose following close behind us. When we got back to the Cullen household, we found they were all there, waiting. They relaxed as soon as we were in the door.
"Well, at least you've put them to good use now. Did you enjoy your ride?" Bella smiled as she moved over to Edwards side.
I smiled as Tom did the same with me, putting his arm round my waist; pulling me closer to him.
Alice looked slightly perplexed as she sat down in one of the dining chairs.
"How did it happen? I don't understand. How did I not see that Rosalie would find them?
"You know, for a partner in crime, you are seriously slow on the uptake." Edward laughed as he sat beside his sister. "You had the vision before Rosalie left, remember?" Doubt was thick in his voice, and the smile on his face didn't appear in his eyes either.
Alice smiled feebly, and then gently laughed. I felt a wash of relief and calm as Jasper entered the room. All of us looked at each other, but I couldn't shake off the feeling that I was missing something.
"I think I need to go and hunt, anyone want to join me?"
Alice suddenly jumped up and looked around at us a little too hopefully; me in particular. Bella looked at Alice quizzically; we had only gone two days ago.
Something was wrong, seriously wrong. I just couldn't figure out what.
So, what is going on…?
Ok, please review for me! This is my first fanfic, so any feedback is helpful!
