BLACK ROSE: DUSK

CHAPTER 3: FLASH BACKS- THE BEGINNING

I can really smile now, seriously. I've never been so happy since the battle. I can finally make myself up to Damon, now, I just hope his sister, Denise and my family could forgive me. I packed everything Damon needed and left the Volturi mansion. Damon and I were holding each other and I really felt happy that he's alive. I went back to the house and while everyone was in the family room. I gently carry Damon into the house.

"Julian! Julian!" I helped Damon to lie down in the couch while finding Julian.

"What is it Allise?" Julian and Clarisse came out.

"Oh my, is that..Damon?" Clarisse was in shock. "Damon? What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be dead according to the Horavon by now?" Julian seems to be in shock too.

My siblings all came out to see what was going on, and they were all surprised to see Damon here. Julian took Damon to his room to rest, and so that he could try to cure his scars and wounds. Clarisse was assisting him. I was just standing in the balcony looking at the sky while holding my cup of hot tea.

"You alright there Allise?" I was wondering who was talking to me, sounded like Sasha, my sister. "You're not mad anymore? I mean, you used to not talk to me."

"How can I be mad when Damon's back, besides, you did it because you had no other choice." Sasha didn't blame me for all that's happened, I was releaved. But what about the others? Sasha didn't stay mad when Damon came back, what about Sienna? Rob? Hayley? And most of all, Jasper. I don't think Jasper will get over of what I did to him. It all happened in that one moment. That one moment. From the day I met Damon and Jasper's love, Bobbi. I'll tell you all about it.

Flashback

I wasn't always a vampire until Julian changed me. I was a normal eight year old back then. Julian told me I was so playful back then I always get hurt and bleeded, that was the problem. Julian said, I wasn't suppose to be changed until I was 12, it was the most suitable age and it's a stable age to train a new born, a vampire that is. So that's where it all begin, my vampire life. But I had fun. My siblings, Sasha Hale, Jasper Hale, Hayley Carter, Sienna Carter and Robert "Rob" Carter and I were very close, we shared stuff, but we always joke among each other. And we always have different opinions and thoughts, well, we're all born from different eras. Sasha was a living swell with her wealthy husband during the 1700s. Jasper was the youngest major in the Texas calvary during the Civil War. Hayley was a classical singer during the 1900s, and Rob was a military coach for World War II. These siblings could be my ancestors, but still, we were joking around each other.

I was a vampire, and I'm still one, I can predict stuff. I went to school acting like a normal person with brown eyes in the morning, and gold eyes when I'm thirsty, for blood that is. Julian and Clarisse take us hunting every day. Until one day, this new kid came to school, Damon, Damon Salvatore. He was charming, good looking but I knew it would be wrong if I dated a human. Sasha had Rob and Jasper was quite close with Hayley before meeting Bobbi. I'm always the lonely one. I was always gloomy and moody whenever I see him, we were lab partners, I would always miss classes whenever we had to operate animals. The he finally asked me "Hey, Allise? It is Allise right?"

"Allise is short for Allison. Why are you talking to me?"

"Sorry, since we're partners, I wanna ask, why do you always miss class everytime we get to do experiments? It's fun operating stuff. Hey hey, son of a doctor here." he giggled and tried to make it seem like a joke.

"Your point is? Well, me missing class is just normal, I have allergies..with..blood. Yeah, blood. Sorry for all the inconvenience." I tried to smile, but can't. "Oh, don't worry. See you at luch?" He was taking his book and going out. "Yeah sure." I was sitting down and not sure what to answer him.

Sasha and Hayley noticed me being moody lately and wanted to know what was going on.

"You ok Allise? You look kinda blue today, kinda pale too, too pale for a vampire." Sasha was asking me while looking at the mirror in the car. "Yeah, you look awful Allise!" Hayley just thought my day couldn't get worst. "I don't know.." I don't even know what to answer her, this Damon guy is in my head, he seems so different. why am I having questions about him?

"Bet she saw Riley, that vampire new born dude that the Volturis let Julian treat." Jasper just assumed it while biting his chips.

"That Riley? Why? Does Allise likes him?" Rob was curious about it. I was just quiet and was trying not to get into any conversation they're having.

"Oh, keep up, Rob! Riley's into her, I don't know, love at first sight, or scent. Riley creeps us all out. we wouldn't want him to be in the Carter family" Sasha didn't like Riley at all. "Tell me about it, Riley's a total weird guy, he has brown eyes, and when he's thristy, it turns red. Creepy much!" Hayley said. Jasper was even telling Rob about how weird he was in biology class, "That dude, creeps the bio class. Whenever we're having an experiment. He stays and just sucks the blood in the corner. And, he's making a mess to the school. Vandalisme on the wall writing Volturi."

"Okay..he's weird!" Rob was shocked to hear that. I can't stand to hear his name anymore, so I just said "Oh shut up you guys, it's not Riley I'm being moody about. It's this new guy, Damon. He's got me questioning stuff about him. He's different. He's like, the first friend I've made after Dakota."

"Someone's got a crush!" teased Hayley. Sasha, Jasper and Rob were coming near me and wanted to know more about it. "Drive your car would you Sasha!" yup, I was annoyed. When we all went back home, we all prepared for hunting, I didn't joined them, I told them I had work to do. But actually I followed my mind and went to his room balcony. He didn't notice me, he was doing homework. But something about him makes me wonder, it's in the tip of my tongue, but what is it?

Everything doesn't seem right. I don't know what was all of it, my feelings were mixed up, I can't tell if I'm happy or sad or angry or eager. Damon Salvatore was a big experiment with me. I really think I might like him, but how will he react if he knew I was a blood-sucking creature? That was the hard part.
