Edward's Curse, Part 2
Amber got up, confused as she was, she looked around… nothing but the forest. Her skateboard fell out of the sky and hit her on the head. "OW!" she exclaimed picking it up. She had been sucked out of her room… to here? There was a serene looking meadow a few feet to her left so she began to stride towards the opening. It was silent. The sweet smell of fresh grass filled the already pine scented air. She reached the edges of the meadow, SUDDENLY… one large figure appeared on the other side of the clearing. The figure was getting bigger and clearer as it sped to a stop on the opposite side of the meadow. Taking no notice of Amber, the top half leaped off! AMBER WAS SHOCKED!!! Then realizing the other was just being carried by the other. Then the voices of the two strangers arose, "I can't go in the sunlight" said one. That did it for Amber, she knew the dialog, and the voice, and she, at the point, knew exactly where she was, "EDWARD!!! OH MY GOD! IT'S YOU!!!" she screamed at the top of her lungs running towards the tall figure. She tackled him and kissed him repeatedly. "ACK! Who are you!?" cried Edward. Bella looked shocked and stared at the strange girl on top of him. He struggled to push her away as he stood up. Bella tapped her foot, angrily, as she stared at Edward. Amber got up and hugged the vampire as Bella gasped. Amber looked up at Edward, " I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S YOU! I'VE ALWAYS DREAMED OF MEETING A VAMPIRE LIKE YOU!!!" she repeated over and over. Bella interrupted, "AHEM… WHO is THIS!?" she said pointing at Amber whom was still ranting on about how she loved Edward. He stared back, "I don't know!" he said. "YEAH RIGHT!" snapped Bella as she walked away (who needs Bella anyway?). "No! BELLA! I'm not kidding! I DON'T KNOW WHO SHE IS!" he cried taking a couple steps toward Bella before being stopped by Amber clinging to his leg. "Ugh! GET OFF!" he shouted at Amber. But she ignored him and went on about how she worshipped him.
By the time Edward was able to move, Bella was long gone. He stood there in confusion, Who was this freak?! Where did she come from?! And most importantly, how did she know him? He pondered this for a minute before Amber stopped talking and finally let go of his leg. She got up and then in sudden epiphany, she realized Edward didn't know who she was. "OH! How could I forget to tell you? I'm Amber." she said with a smile spreading a mile across her face. He looked back, she didn't know that didn't help, "Do I know you?" he sighed.
"Probably not." she said, "BUT I KNOW YOU!"
He stared back strangely at Amber. There she was, a 13 year old girl, with brown hair, skateboard in hand, and a pink Aeropostàl hoodie, and she knew he was a vampire, she knew his name, and she was obsessed with him, and he didn't know her at all. Edward was stunned. He didn't know he was at all a 'celebrity' of any sort! And certainly didn't think he would have fans if he was. To shatter the silence Amber asked quite loudly, "So how's Alice?!"
"What!?" answered Edward.
"You know, Alice… Cullen? Um, dark hair, a vampire…"
"You know my family?!"
"Heck yeah! There's Carlisle, Emmett, Rosalie," she said dreamily.
"What are you!? Some type of custom stalker!?"
"Alice, Esmé, and YOU." she continued ignoring him.
"How do you know this!?" he cried.
"And your house, OMAGAWSH, gorgeous! With the all the glass on the side, and the big yard with the-"
"STOP!" Edward interrupted, but that didn't do a thing,
"I can't believe how you can read minds! QUICK! What am I thinking…RIGHT NOW!" she cried.
"AHHHHH! NO! That's me and Bella's thing! Stop that! Think of something else!" he repeated as he began to walk away. Amber took another step closer, but Edward wasn't comfortable. Covering his ears he began singing "LA, LA, LAAA" trying to block out her thoughts.
He started to run to his top speeds, zooming through the forest in desperation to loose the crazy fan girl he had encountered. He ran all the way to his house, and was slowing down to a steady pace. He turned, thinking he lost her, but quite the opposite. He realized a rope had been tied around his waist and on the other end was Amber holding on. She had her skateboard underneath her and was again, blabbing on about something else she knew about Edward. "UGH! WHY!?" he shouted. Amber pulled the rope forcing her closer to him, "Yoo-hoo!" she said getting closer. "Oh no!" he replied and tried desperately to untie the rope. But unfortunately for him, the second he touched it, he got stung. "OW!" he said pulling his hand immediately from the rope. " WHAT!?" screamed Edward in reaction to the pain. "Bella gave me the rope… she said it was garlic rope, I think?" answered Amber. "Grrr…." Edward growled. Amber was as close as she could possibly get. "He, he, as great as this has been… could you untie me?" pleaded Edward."If you kiss me!" shouted Amber.
"NO!"
"Then I will not untie you."
Edward realized this wasn't good. If this, Amber, knew he was a vampire and told, even if people thought she was crazy, this would be a burden. He had to untie himself, and he could easily cut rip it to pieces if it hadn't been garlic. But for now, he would have to deal with this girl. Even if he did kiss her, who knows if she'd untie him? And if she kept he word, then that wouldn't stop her from bothering him. "UGH!" moaned Edward trying to bear the fact he was tied to a crazy person. He walked up the stairs to his house and quickly opened, went in, and shut the door. Amber was outside… still with the rope in hand but Edward was on the other side. He tried desperately to pull the rope from the door, in some attempt to free himself from Amber. But she know had the rope tied around her waist as well. She knocked on the window next to the door. Edward stared wide eyed at her until she began waving her arms franticly. She pointed to the door and made her hands walk across the window sill. "EDWARD!!! Open the door!" he heard ever so faintly.
Then more voices came. "Hey! Edward, who's at the door?!" said Emmet coming down the stairs. Edward quickly ran to the window and closed the shades on Amber and answered "No one… it was just… me." Emmet walked towards Edward. "Hmm. You ok?" said Emmet noticing Edward was nervous.
"Never better." replied Edward purposely getting louder, as he heard the faint words "Edward!!! EDWARD!!!" outside.
"Oh, well do you need any-?"
"No!" shouted Edward.
"Don't need to shout then!" said Emmet, he looked down at Edward's feet. Realizing a rope tied around his waist led to the floor behind his back and looped around one foot. Emmet's eye continued following the rope as it ran along the wall, and then following the trail to underneath the door. The other end was wiggling back and forth. Emmet cocked an eyebrow, "Uh, hey, Edward… what's tha-"
"NOTHING!" cried Edward running into another room, slipping on the rope and falling to the ground…. He got up and pulled away as hard as he could into another room. Emmet sighed, "I'm telling ya, mortality is not his thing…" as he walked away.
Edward peered out of the room to the front door. He didn't hear Amber's voice and the other end of the rope was not moving. He decided to quickly open the door to see if Amber was still there. If she wasn't he could finally escape her enslavement. So he took a risk and walked cautiously to the door. "Ok, nothing to worry about, you're a Cullen… you can do this. Teenagers don't scare vampires! YEAH! I CAN DO IT!" he chanted as he opened the door. Immediately he fell to the floor as Amber tackled him once more. He was smothered with teenage lipstick as he fought to escape.
PAUSE… (it is paused with a close-up of Edward on the floor, trying desperately to escape while being kissed repeatedly by Amber)
Brianna (ME) : (Walks in with backdrop of the paused image….)
Look at this… Edward Cullen, the emo vampire I can't stand, being tormented by a 13 year old girl… (I point up at the image) does anyone else find this ultimate torture hysterically funny!? BWAHAHHAHA. XD! (I walk away laughing my breathe away.)
UNPAUSE…
Amber continued the act as Edward made a break for it; he pulled away only to find Amber being dragged behind. "-and we'll have 4 children, Edward Jr, Amber Jr, Elaine, and Sheldon, I was thinking about the name 'Eliza' but it sounds to Australian, am I right?" she went on. He covered her mouth with his hand, "SHHH!" he hissed. Esmé came down the stairs with Carlisle right behind her and Edward could hear them coming into the main room, so he quickly pulled Amber and him behind a sofa. They waited there for sometime until the light foot steps of Esmé and Carlisle arose in the room, "I still don't know if Alice is right in the head. She is always going on about how 'Global Warming' will destroy us all in the future." Edward pleaded in his mind that Amber would keep quiet. But again, the opposite. She jolted out at the words and screamed "CARLISLE!" and hugged him. She turned to Esmé and hugged her too. The two Cullens stared in awe at the weird girl. Then they slowly moved their heads to the couch, where she'd jumped out from. Edward slowly rose to a stand, "He,he, heeey… Mom, Dad," he paused and faked a smile, "This is, uh, Amber." Esmé and Carlisle exchanged confused expressions as they focuses on the rope between Edward and, uh, … Amber.

Author's note: Well… I got bored one day, and Amber, Twilight fan and a friend, was annoying me about the awful subject. So I told her Edward's true torture would be meeting a fan… I will continue this story when I get a review... Hope you enjoyed!!!
