annabelle's POV
after aunt alice had a vision and ran out of the room, uncle jasper and i followed close behind, to find her running into the forest. "come on." uncle jasper said over his shoulder as he lead me after aunt alice.
we kept running towards her scent until we found her at the cabin where i met krystal earlier. i ran up to her and grabbed her wrist to stop her from going inside. "what are you doing, aunt alice? i met a vampire here earlier, and she told me to stay away from here!" i hissed under my breath.
aunt alice just nodded. "exactly. she had no right to say that to you. now go back with your uncle jasper, annabelle." she hissed back, gently pushing me back to my uncle. he grabbed my wrist and pushed me behind him.
aunt alice went inside slowly, and then i heard growling and hissing. i stepped forward, but uncle jasper held hs arm out in front of me. "your aunt alice's got this." he said. but he didn't sound so sure.
then aunt alice started telling krystal that "i could go wherever i want to" and krystal just said "well, this is my property, and i can tell her to get off it anytime i want to" and then aunt alice came outside.
"what happened, alice?" uncle jasper asked when aunt alice rejoined us. she just shook her head. "i'll explain it later." she replied. and then we took off for home.
edward's POV
bella was talking to carlisle when alice had a vision. bella continued talking, but she grasped my hand firmly. when alice came back to the present, she mumbled something and ran outside, with jasper and annabelle behind her.
after they were gone, bella turned to me. "what did she see, edward?" she asked, and i could hear the concern in her voice.
"she saw a vampire telling annabelle to stay away from her. it was from this morning, i could tell, annabelle was punching trees." i explained, standing up and running after them.
i didn't want them to hear me, they would just send me back, so i ran more slowly and hid around trees as they ran. when jasper, alice, and annabelle stopped in front of a small cabin, i hid behind a tree a few yards away.
alice went inside and i heard hissing and growling. she had a conversation with the vampire, apparently named krystal, and jasper held annabelle behind him.
alice finally came back, and they ran home. i followed suit. the only thing holding me back from killing that other vampire was the example i would be setting for my daughter.
annabelle's POV
after aunt alice, uncle jasper, and i got back to dad's house, we all sat down like nothing ever happened, and nobody questioned us. dad had no doubt told them what happened, anyway, he stopped talking abruptly after we arrived.
"annabelle, it's noon, we should probably get home now." mom said, standing up once again. i nodded and stood up. dad followed.
"what are you doing, edward?" mom asked when he followed us to the door. he laughed with everyone else.
"making sure my daughter doesn't go on another rampage, of course." he answered calmly, walking out to mom's car and opening the door. mom climbed in, with dad riding shotgun. we drove home in silence, but when we got home, dad followed us inside.
"so, jasper wanted me to remind you about tomorrow," he said, turning to me. i nodded and he kissed my forehead before i went upstairs.
when i got up there, i unpacked the suitcase mom had packed for me, only to find that i had forgotten to give dad his surprise. i ran back downstairs and came in the living room.
"mom, i forgot to give it to him." i said. i didn't even have to say what, she already knew. she nodded. "i'll leave you two alone." she said, running out the back door and into the forest. dad stood up and followed me to my bedroom. i sat down at the piano and started to play.
dad gave mom a CD of songs he played on the piano, and she gave it to me for a 10th birthday present. i loved the lullaby that he played for her, and i learned, by ear, how to play it. (yes i really did in real life, too).
while i played, he sat on my bed and listened, smiling. he was confused at first, but once i started playing, he recognized it and smiled.
when i finished he got up and hugged me. then he tickled me. i started laughing and ran downstairs. he followed me, and i screamed. he tackled me in the living room and tickled me some more.
when i started gasping for air, he stopped and started laughing himself. i stood up and inched towards him, grinning evily.
"oh no! don't you dare!" he said slowly, inching away. i ran up and tickled him back. i chased him around a few times, and mom came back. she just stared at us. we stared back. she burst out laughing. so did we.
i love my dad.
hope you liked this chapter!!!! WELL REVIEW AND TELL ME!!!!! thanks for reading!
