Are you wasting time on my story? Sorry it took awhile, but I have a lot of things on my hands at the moment. Forgive me?(: And by the way! I don't want any nasty comments on how much Jacob sucks! I mean to hell with that, it's my business on which team I am! Go team SWITZERLAND!
You reeled me in with your smile
You made me melt with your voice
Now I've been gone now for awhile
Just to find that I'm your seventh choice
And I don't wanna pay the cost,
But it be best if you get lost...
Cause we know you'll never change!
Don't say that you need me
And don't play these games with my mind
You better get out of my head cause your wasting your time
And don't say it's forever
And don't play cause you had your shot
You better stop messing around cause your gonna get caught

Chapter 21
I ran through the woods, the trees becoming a blur through my tears. My lungs seemed like they were on fire and my hands were still shaking from fear. Since I did not watch my footing, I stumbled over a tree root. I fell to the ground, the moss covered ground making it less painful.
My head throbbed with pain and my legs felt numb. I stayed on the ground just letting the tears wash over me. I felt like I was there for hours, my sobs turning into helpless hiccups. I was surprised and pained that Edward didn't come after me.
I heard a faint chuckle behind me and I instantly shot up. My head whipped around and I gasped, gawking at the figure in the black robe. His chalk white hand was holding onto an unconcious Gemma. His hand wrapped around her stomach like an iron grip. Her head was bent down, preventing me from seeing her face.
Then something caught my eye. On her neck was the ever familiar bite. Of a vampire.
"What the hell did you do to her?" I said, ridiculous enough my voice cracked.
"And Hello to you too.." He chuckled, dropping his hood. His face was beautiful of course, but his eyes held a glint of evil. "Hello Melody, my name is Felix"
I gulped, "What did you do to Gemma?" I demanded, trying to sound courageous.
"The same thing I did to her mother..." He paused, glancing at the unmoving form in his arm, "I sucked her soul out"
My breathe caught in my throat. That only meant one thing. Gemma is dead.
"W-why?" I gasped, planting my hands on the ground.
"You see Melody, if you do not cooperate with me, you will deal with the consequences" He responded, serious. He dropped Gemma on the ground and she hit the tree trunk.
I finally saw her face and tried to look away, but I couldn't. Her eyes were blank and lifeless and her mouth was open slightly. She looked innocent and I felt sorry for her.
"Now come with me, Aro is waiting" He sneered, gliding towards me gracefully. I used my hands to push myself away as the pain in my wrists protested against anymore movement.
"G-get away from me!" I shrieked, my right hand landing on uneven ground. Causing me to fall backwards on my back.
Felix made a clucking sound with his tongue, and with one swift movement, his iron grip was around my wrist. I let out a scream of agony, it felt like my arm was ripped out of it's socket.
"Come now!" He grunted, pulling me on my feet. I let out another yelp of pain as tears rushed down my face.
"L-let g..gooooo!" I begged, regretting I ever came back. This much pain wasn't worth it. "EDWARD!!!" I screamed and birds above flew away in fright.
"Quiet!" Felix hissed, yanking on my arm as he towed me away. I flinched away from Gemma as we passed her.
I stumbled over roots and my own shoes and that made Felix impatient. He kept yanking on my arm and yelling at me to hurry up.
"Hurry up!" He snarled, as I fell over a pretty large tree branch. I whimpered, it felt like a knife sliced through my head. It hurt so bad.
"Edward..." I whimpered, scanning the forests.
"Shut up! Edward is not coming, now come along. Aro is getting impatient!" Felix growled.
"LET GO OF MY DAUGHTER!" Someone roared. A blur hit Felix on the arm, throwing him into a tree.
I staggered back, falling into a pool of mud. I felt drops of water land on my face and hair, I looked up and saw that it started to rain. I heard another roar of fury and saw Felix getting up to his feet.
I saw that the blur was simply Edward. He bolted towards me, towering over me defensively. "Are you alright, darling?" He asked breathlessly, his hair wind blown from running.
"No" I whispered, shaking my head.
"Edward, that was simply uncalled for!" Felix cried, trying to dust off the leaves on his robe.
"Well, you deserved it" Edward grunted, glaring at him.
"Aro is getting impatient!" Felix fumed, his nostrils flaring, "You will come now, or I will take drastic measures!"
Edward narrowed his eyes to me and he bent toward me. He scooped me in his arms like I was some kind of fragile baby. "Fine" Edward sighed, "Let's go"
"What?" I gasped, and his eyes flashed toward me. It silenced me immediately. This sucks!
