Chapter 15

Vanessa's pov

He was literally ten feet away from me and I thought my heart was going to leap out of my chest. I knew I was supposed to be with Jacob. The real question was did I want to be? "Hey, Nessa. You're still up. I wanted to introduce you to the vampires. Ya know the good ones." I looked at the first one. Blond hair, gold eyes, and porcelain skin. Her hair was more golden than blond though. She frowned and said,"I am Rosalie." Even her name was perfect. The guy holding her hand was tall and had ginormous muscles. He kind of scared me. "I'm Emmett. Don't worry, I don't bite. Unless you want me to." He smiled and laughed. I gave a chuckle. A sarcastic vampire. Now I've seen it all. Then there was this blond one, who looked like he could be a male model. "Jasper." He said and smiled. He looked like he was in pain. Note to self, don't bleed around him. Then I was drawn to this perky female vampire. Bouncy, black hair, in a pixie cut. Very fashionable. She seemed bubbly and very nice. She stepped closer to me and said,"Hi, I'm Alice." I smiled. She wrapped me in ah hug where I could hardly breathe, "Alice, still human here." She released me and smiled. She said,"Me and you are going to be great friends. I saw it!" I smiled and saw the perfect one again. He stepped closer to me, closer than Alice had and said, "Hello, I'm Edward." I almost melted at the sound of his voice. It was so velvety and smooth. "Hi, I'm Vanessa. It's nice to meet you." I stuck my hand out and he shook smiled, his smile was crooked and adorable. I need to stop thinking about this. "Vanessa, why don't you show me you;re closet. Because, no offense, you're a fashion nightmare." I smiled and gestured for her to follow me. We went up the stairs and I flopped down om my bed. "What did you mean when you said you saw us being friends?" She smiled and giggled, "When you're a vampire you get this supernatural gift. I can see into the future, Jasper can tell what people are feeling and calm them down, Emmett has superior strength, and Edward reads mind. He looked kind of confused by you, though. He might not be able to read yours." I smiled, "That figures. I do kind of like to hide in the shadows. I kind of like you, Alice. But, you probably already knew I was going to say that." She giggled and nodded. "Yeah, I did. But, it's way better hearing it in person!" I smiled and laughed. I heard a light knock on the door. "Come in." I saw Edward's flawless face in the doorway. "Alice, can I talk to Vanessa, for a minute. Alone." She looked at me to clarify and I nodded my head. She walked out and he shut the door and locked it. I was kind of getting freaked out. "Alice make you her barbie doll yet?' I smiled and said, "No, not yet. It's probably coming though. Can I ask you a question?" He nodded his head and I said," Can you read my mind? Alice was telling me you looked confused when you saw me." He shook his head and said, "No, I can't. I look at you and concentrate really hard, but all I draw up is a blank. There's nothing. Like you're blocking me or hiding something." I smiled and said, "Sorry." He laughed and said,"Don't apologize. Sometimes a little mystery is good. OK, my turn to ask you a question. Can we be friends, good friends?" I smiled and said, "I'd like that. I was just thinking that, ya sure you can't read my mind?" He smiled and said, "Positive. And for the record. If I was Jacob, and you were mine, I wouldn't let you out of my sight for one second." Before I could say another word he was gone. Leave it to a vampire to keep me guessing.
