7. PORT ANGELS

Why was it so normal for humans to drive slow? Even Carlisle drove faster the Jessica- though we made it to Port Angels by four O'clock. It was weird to drive with humans all the way there. I mean, it tested my will power for sure. I didn't intend on my eyes becoming slightly darker as we got in a car- or not being prepared if either of my friends got cut. And then, there's always the chance that I could slip up and do something off like not breath or blink, or walked to fast. God It sucked to be a vampire... with human friends.

"Didn't you go with your boyfriend?" Jessica harassed me when I told her I didn't normally go to the dances at my old school.

I grinned. "I had better things to do with my boyfriend." I muttered with a sexual undertone. I meant it to sound as bad as it could, but poor Angelia almost died out of shock.

We made it to one of the few dress stores there was in this town. Jessica and Angelia both asked me about my opinions after they tried on each dress. With Ang, it was always too short or the wrong color, just the opposite of Jessica. I would just smile and watch them have fun.

"Bree, what do you think?" Jessica muttered holding up the electronic blue and a short black dress.

"Blue." I said swiftly. It was cuter and louder, and it sreamed 'Jessica!'

She thanked me then and ran to the shoes part, leaving me with Ang.

"How do you like this one?" Angelia said, holding up a honey colored that match her golden hair perfectly.

"I love it, and you get to where heels to this one." I told her with a big smile. By the time we made it to shoes, Jessica had found black heels and was over to the clutches and jewels.

Angelia grinned at that. "I'd be the only time I could though."

I rolled my eyes, I was only a few inches shorter then her. "I feel you pain- but if you like heels you need to flaunt it, not just stick to flats." I said, in a strange wise voice I never herd myself talk in.

"Ya..." She started, wanting to say something else. "Eric is tall enough for me with heels." She paused then. "Edward is good for you in heels." She hinted and and I frowned. "He'd still be a bit taller."

I narrowed my eyes, my good mood dieing then. "What makes everyone think where together?" I asked, staring at the floor, my voice hardening.

She shifted her weight and looked away. "Well just that..." She stuttered. "Emmett and Rosalie, and then Alice and Jasper. It seems like you two are just-" She stopped.

I laughed, interrupting her.

Her voice got more bold. "Well, it makes sense."

I sighed. "It does." I said, way too low for her to hear.

Just then, Jessica came back, showing off her new necklace that matched her dress perfectly.

"You're a speed shopper." I smiled up at Jess, saying it kind of loudly.

"Did you finally pick your shoes Ang?" Jessica said, impatient, completely ignoring my statement.

Angela nodded, apparently in fear of Jessica. I laughed. "So what's our next stop?"

"How 'bout dinner?" Jessica grinned, while the man at the cash register was eye-balling us.

I groaned. The only dinner I wanted was a big warm bowl of sweet, thick, bear blood. "Can I meet you two there?" I asked. "Emmett sent me on a mission to buy me a few CDs for her while I'm here." I lied through my teeth.

They both agreed, and I smiled at then before turning the opposite direction.

It was growing dark while I was just walking around, waiting for them to finish up their meal. At one point, I passed four men, but that was on a busy side walk with plenty of people on it. Now, from the sound of it, they were stalking me.

I herd the loud and mischievous whispers about forty feet behind me. I glanced at the group of about 4 grown men before slipping though a narrow ally way. From the shadows, I saw them.

"I think she went this way.." I herd a deep voice say, a little in front of me. I frowned, I didn't want to hurt anybody- I didn't want to make my family hate me again, and I didn't want to break my recored.

I backed away, touching the old and destroyed brick when a small laugh muttered from behind me. I turned on my heels, lowering myself. Cat like. That was how I must have looked. They didn't know I wasn't the pray. I was the Predator.

"We thought we lost you," Muttered one of the men, closing in on me.

I hissed softly, leveling a dark stare and walking forward.

I tried to push though the wall of men when someone caught me around the neck- and another holding back my arms.

That didn't go well for them- I slammed myself ageist the stalky one, the one holding my arms back. He yelped out in pain and surprise as I kicked my knee into the other one that was attacking my neck.

When they both let me go I, Disappeared.

Rounding the corner I frowned. I knew no one else had seen my inhuman sprint, but I had just risked a lot.

Now I was just running as fast as I could without people noticing, to get to the restaurant, but I was going to be late. I knew. I quickly pulled out my cell phone with little hope that Jess wouldn't mind.

"Where are you?" the voice snapped on the other line. The phone had only ringed once. I laughed at her cheerful voice.

"I got sidetracked." I grinned.

I herd a laugh from Angela and a snicker from Jess. "With who?" She asked.

"No on-" I jumped, doping my phone. With narrow eyes I tried to elbow the person who grabbed me by the waist.

"Bree!" I herd a voice snap. I dropped my bag and purse this time.

"Edward! What the hell are you doing here?" I asked, spinning around to see his dark eyes glittering and hair mused. I waited for a forth of a second. "Alice." I answered for him.

He scowled. "I really don't know why you ask questions." I rolled my eyes, and picked up my bags. With the most stubborn look I could master, I stormed over to his car and slammed the door shut.

He was already in the other side, staring at me. "What were you thinking?" He snapped.

I bit my lip, staring at the passing buildings. He waited. "What was I supposed to do?" Those six words almost made him explode.

"You could of killed them!"

"So! They've killed others!" I said calmly. "An eye for an eye, what happened to that?" I always thought that that was the way to go.

I herd a loud snap from the other side of the car. Blinking, I turned my head towards Edward and took in the scene. "Your going to break the steering wheel." I said, trying to calm him.

"Your going to get someone killed." He scowled.

"Edward!" I screamed, slamming my foot down. Hurt betrayed my face. Do you really think that? I couldn't help but asking in the slightest interest.

His head turned in the slightest, as if he just comprehended what he said. "Bree- I'm sorry." He said, but ice still tented in his voice.

"No your not." I crossed my arms. "You wouldn't of said it in the first place." He sighed. There was no agreement in this.

I saw the peer coming up in the distance and Jessica's car in the parking lot or the diner.

"What should I say?" I asked, doubtful as he pulled into the parking lot.

He was lost for words for once.

"Bree!" Jessica called. She must have been waiting in the Restaurant for me. Shock entered her face as Edward jumped up and opened the door for me.

I frowned at that. I didn't want any other wild roamers flying around.

"Where were you?" She asked, running next to me.

I smiled. "I got lost and ran into him-" I nodded towards Edward, but sadly, Jessica wasn't convenienced.

"Why did you come-" She started but Edward had a sly grin on his face. "If you wanted to hangout with us we would of brought you along.

"Well-" I stomped on his toe. I will hurt you. Badly. I threatened.

"-Did you two eat without me?" I asked Angela, smiling.

Angela looked guilty. "Yes- we were going to wait but Jessica suggested to go ahead and eat."

Jessica looked hurt. "I didn't know we would have company. "

I felt a little urge in the pit of my throat to punch her. I swelled it down as quickly as I could.

"Oh that's fine." I said in a silky voice, starting towards the Volvo again.

"I think you should eat something." A small voice said behind me and I spun quickly. Edward- I warned. He smiled. "Will you two be joining us?" He asked, politely towards my opened mouth friends. Why does he do that. I thought shanking my head.

Jessica looked down, leaving Ang to answer. "You go ahead and have fun Bree," She smiled. "Like I said, we ate already-" She started, grabbing Jessica's arm and pulling her towards there car.

"Have fun!" I herd a light call from Jessica, and after her muttering: "Damn her." I grinned at that.

I turned to Edward then. "What was that?" I asked, starring him down.

He looked utterly obvious. "What was what?"

I laughed lightly. He looked so clueless. "Have you forgotten we don't eat?" I asked, watching the car drive away.

He grabbed my hand, pulling me to the Volvo. "I was being polite." He smiled crookedly at me.

"Do you always have to be polite?" I muttered, crossing my arms. "Jessica will explode one of these days." I smiled.

He looked like he would enjoy that. "That'll be the day."

I frowned. "You just like the idea because she's my friend." I muttered.

He shook his head rapidly as he grabbed my hand and turned on his heel.

I smiled at him, following him towards the Volvo we had arrived in five minutes ago. "I thought you were going to buy me dinner." I said as I slammed the door shut.

Edward didn't talk until we were back on the main road going home.

"No." He asked.

"No?" I asked. "Whats so supposed to mean?"

He sighed. "You ask a lot of questions."

I grinned. "You make a lot of statements."

I bounded down the stairs in a patriotically good mood after a long shower and a change of clothes. I tip toed quietly towards the couch where Emmett, Jasper and Alice were sitting. I was aiming to scare Emmett when I realized they were too intent on the news cast for today. Whats the big deal. I muttered inside my head as I peered curiously at the T.V. Alice spoke up, "She's going to be mad."

I narrowed my eyes at the TV. "She is mad." I said, crossing my arms.

Alice gasped, Emmett jumped, and Jasper was unemotional.

I crossed my arms as the hour news appeared across the screen. 'MURDERER AND ALEGED RAPIST FOUND OUTSIDE POLICE OFFICE KNOCKED OUT AND INJERED.'

I saw a picture fade- of the stalky short man who I could have taken out easily and almost killed the night before. He had a beard, and lighter hair in it, so he could be easily disguised.

I narrowed my eyes. "Where's Edward." Unemotional.

"He left you, with Carlisle. To do that." Jasper nodded towards the T.V. In a strange, happy voice. I felt something touch me in the pit of my stomach. "Jasper stop it." I snapped. I knew how his little power worked, and I wasn't going to take it again.

"I don't know what your talking about!" He jumped to his feet, and was facing me in an instant. His hands were clenched in rage.

"Liar!" I mocked.

"I'm not lieing." He muttered in a hostel and low voice. "It's not my fault he doesn't love you enough to trust you. I can't blame him. I positively don't like you." I cruel smile hit his lips then. "And neither does anyone else in this family."

I wanted to hurt him, right then and there. And, something must have triggered that in Alice.

"Bree!" She screamed, right as I felt weight knocking me off balance and onto the floor. Hard hands pinned down my legs as Alice took my arms. I blinked to see Emmett there, glaring.

I didn't waste my time struggling. I simply went limp and glared intently at the celling. "Jasper?" I asked, my forehead creased.

"What?" He snapped, his voice crisp as ice.

"Can you please just, burn in hell already?"

"I'll go when you go." He replied, cool as usual.

With a giant heave to get past Alice and Emmett, I frowned. "When Edward comes home, tell him I'm going to kill him." I said as I walked towards the door.

"Where you goin'? Emmett asked, his eyes now perky.

"Out."

"Oh." Was his witty answer.

Alice sighed. "They are almost here now. You might as well wait." She grabbed my hand like a friend would and sat me down.

I waited while tapping my foot on the ground. Who ever said that doing that makes the time go by faster was wrong.

But, just as Alice said, they arrived shortly.

The door swung open. I jumped up and walked up to Carlisle, who said as a greeting, "He's waiting by the Volvo." His voice was glum and his brows furrowed together.

I narrowed my eyes and mustered up the most pissed off face I could. With a small nod towards Carlisle, I sprinted. In a matter of seconds I was with him.

Edward looked very vulnerable at that moment. Like someone was going to rip him into peaces. He knew me all too well now. My face fell as he started walking out towards the woods, and he gestured me too follow.

This was going to be important.

"Explain." I started, while we started running side by side. He seemed to know the trail we were taking.

With a withered sigh he slowly and calmly stated what he and Carlisle did. Suddenly he stopped, and plopped himself down. He explained how he followed their sent, and stalked them, and took them down in a dark allay way at 4 am, all while Edward lied to me and said he was hunting.

After he stopped his story I stayed quiet till the anger bubbled up inside of me. "Are you a IDIOT!" I screamed at him, while clenching my fists. "You could have lost control! You could have lost everything you worked for in your damned 100 years of life!" I was throwing a fit. "I can't believe you! And you did this even when I told you not to! That I had already had it under control. Do you not trust me? Is Jasper right? Give me a damn answer, Edward. Yes, or No." I hissed while so much was going through my mind.

I saw his lip quiver slightly. "Bree-" He interrupted. "I don't want you to lose control." He glanced up at my eyes from his seat on the floor, but looked back down. "I don't want you to go back to the Volturi. I don't want you to leave me!" His voice cracked when he said 'me'.

I blinked. "I- I-" I started to stutter over the words.

He smiled, getting up and snaked his arm loosely around my neck. "I simply have came to the point where I can not live without you, Bree." He mussed

I was prepared for a lot of things, but not this. On one hand, I positively loved this man. I wanted to stay with him for the rest of eternity. And I could understand his point- and I knew he loved me too. But on the other hand- I didn't want it to come out like this. Out of pity.

I was pathetically rubbing my right temple. Slowing I started to speak but through clenched teeth. "You are good at changing the subject."

He grinned. He knew how to play me.

He leaned forward and pressed his lips lovingly up to mine.

Like I said at the top, not my best chapter :/ It'll get better though I promise! I just needed a chapter to transation their relationships I guess (:

Hope you liked it; please review :D
