Finally a longer chappie XP ok here it goes.

I Do no Own Twilight (I need to come up with a better disclaimer)

By Myself – Chapter 4: Secret Lives

Bella POV

We turned onto a dark forest road. The headlights were the only light and it was slightly creepy.

"My family likes seclusion. No one really seems to like us," Mia explained. Hmm, that's not helping their 'I'm not a vampire' thing.

"Who are your family?" I asked I didn't know if I was asking too much.

"My Parents are Teri and Mike and Peter is my little brother he is about eight," She told me. "Here we are," she announced we pulled up to a slightly large log cabin. It was cute, but oddly mysterious. We got out of the car and I followed behind her. When we reached the door she turned to me. "Wait here, I should warn them," she unlocked the door and stepped inside but she didn't close the door. I could hear faint whispers.

"You did what?!" a male voice whispered. I guess this was Mike.

"Mike, she couldn't just leave her there, we can take Peter hunting. Say we are camping," a woman's voice said reasonably.

"This should be a good test for Peter; we have kept him hiding for so long," Mia complained.

"Mia, he is only eight, he mentally can't control his blood lust," Mike insisted. I took a small step back. I had been drawn into a coven of vampire's maybe that's why she was hiding her eyes. Shit. Shit. Shit, I was going to be dinner.

"Hey don't forget I'm older than you," a little voice complained.

"Not psychically," The male hissed. "Come on we can go hunting," he stated then there was quiet. Mia came and opened the door.

"My Family went camping," she explained. She led me into the house, and the small cabin was filling with different things, a collection from different periods. "My parents like to collect stuff. I'm more partial to the sixties memorabilia myself," she said. "There is a guest bed room down the hall. You like pasta?" I nodded but I don't think vampires kept pasta around the house. I found the room and left my bag there. I walked back out to living room and found the kitchen. I was debating on actually saying that I knew what she was. "My mom didn't go shopping but we can order pizza. We don't have many people here," she kept her sunglasses on as she dialed the number.

"You know you don't have to do anything you have already done so much, if I can borrow the phone and call a cab," she stopped dialing the number and hung up and looked up. "I mean if that would be easier," I countered.

"Are you afraid?" she asked sarcastically, but I could tell the meaning behind it.

"No," I said. "Nothing can scare me anymore." she sighed and ran her fingers through her hair.

"Mike and Teri are going to kill me for this but," she took off her sun glasses and looked me straight in the eye; her eyes were black and gold. Gold? I was expecting red like the Volturi.

"You're a vampire." I stated more than a question. She nodded. "But you're a vegetarian vampire, you won't hurt me."

"How do you know all this?" she asked. "Come sit down," she pointed to a stool next to her. I sat down, a little nervous but nothing like what I felt in the past.

"My story is not that interesting," I warned her.

"Please, if you know about vampires it has to be interesting if you're a human." I took a deep breath and began my story. I explain to her about how I move to forks and Edward. I went into detail about Him and his whole family and about them being vampires. I briefly explained about him leaving and Voltera briefly; they were still hard topics. Then I slipped everything about Jake and how Victoria was coming to kill me.

"And that's when I decided to leave. I felt they would be better off without me." she shook her head in disbelief.

"You know you're the first girl around my physical age that I have talked to in fifty years? And it is such a small world that we know some of the same vampires." I could tell shock on my face formed. She laughed. "Here let me get you some water before I tell you how I know your vampires." She turned and brought back a glass of water.

"I was changed on one of those vampire raids during that religious upheaval time period," she explained.

"So does that mean you're as old as Carlisle?" I asked her.

"Yes, but not in human years I'm nineteen, and my brother is my actual brother he is only eight. Have you ever heard of an immoral child?" She asked me.

"No," I shook my head. I couldn't remember if Edward had said something or not.

"Well then Carlisle is a man of his word. You see when I was bit I had hidden my brother in a hidden place in our house, then after my transformation and found him and accidentally bit him." She held face in her hands. "I felt so ashamed. We both knew the stories about vampires. I dammed an eight year old to forever be an eight year old. He can never enjoy things of us older people and is stuck like that forever," she ranted. I didn't know what to say. "Anyway, after a few years we met Carlisle and he told us about eating animals instead of humans. He took care of us for about ten years working with our powers and our thirst together. He also taught us about immortal children would easily be killed by Volturi. They claimed the children were way to powerful for their own good. That's when we decided not to put Carlisle in danger anymore and left. He was like an uncle to us. We never called him father because it was just too soon to be calling anyone by that, anyway we lived in hiding working on our powers on our own and my thirst is completely under control. My brothers thirst other hand; not so much. That is how we got Mike and Teri. They were hiking in the Adirondacks; after we moved to America. That wasn't the best swim. But that's another story. Peter and I were hunting and found their scent and he ran off. I couldn't stop him, I just able to rip him off of them. Now they are our parents. Teri didn't like how we were such wild 'ragamuffins'," She quoted the air before she continued. "They took us in as their own, but then while traveling we meet Victoria. She saw Peter and threatened to tell the Volturi. We tried to kill her but her and that James was too good for us." Now we have been hiding out here for fifty years. I had just gotten the car so I could at least go to the book store and there you show up with that horrible excuse for a truck," she smiled. She seemed to have finished her story.

"You it's not your fault," I told her. "For your brother or anything," it was true. It wasn't her fault someone bit her and her newborn sense took over and got her brother and later on he bit Mike and Teri.

"You make guilt sound stupid," she laughed. We sat there in silence for a while.

"You said you and your brother had powers," I tried to pick up the conversation

"Yes, I can see people's memories, even the forgotten ones. I can manipulate them as in make you forget them or add news ones. My brother can make him and his scents completely disappear. He can do it to people in close range to. You see why the Volturi can't find him. They'll use him." She cared a lot about her brother.

"Well you don't have to worry about me telling anyone."

"Thanks I better tell the family that you know and about how Victoria might be following you." I nodded as she went to call them back. I couldn't hear her she was whispering so only vampires could hear. I heard her slam the phone and walked back to the kitchen. "I'm sorry I dragged you here."

"What happened?"

"They want to talk to you."

Mia POV

I slipped out of the room and quickly dialed the phone. I had just spread my entire vampire history and my families to this human. I'm sorry but I was in deep crap.

"So did you bite her yet?" my annoying little brother asked.

"Peter," I hissed. "This is no time for jokes now hand the phone over to Teri or Mike."

"Alright," I hear a shuffling and then my father for all intensive purposes come on.

"Talk to me Mia."

"She knows about vampires. I didn't tell her she knew what I was just by looking at my eyes. She knows who Carlisle Cullen is and she also knows Victoria." I finished up quickly.

"How?"

"She dated one of his vampire sons."

"No, not that I mean Victoria, how does she know Victoria?" he asked.

"She is being hunted by her. It's a long story I think she should tell you."

"Mia! She has to leave now! We have been fine hiding here and don't need any interruptions."

"Mike, stop being a hot head if you had blood pressure it would be through the roof. Now calm down and we can talk this out if you come back. Bella is really sweet and understanding."

"Fine but I'm not a hundred percent sure any of us will keep cool about this."

"Dad," I said. A name I rarely used. "It will be fine." I slammed the phoned down. Maybe a little to dramatic and a little too hard but I didn't care. I walked back into the kitchen and sat down next to Bella again. "I'm sorry I dragged you here." I muttered, I should have just left her on the side of the road, but that wasn't how I taught to treat other people.

"What happened?" she asked. She was so innocent to everything and she didn't give a dam that a deadly creature sat next to her and more were on their way.

"They want to talk to you."
