Here's the next chapter (:
Azalea POV
Thank god that wolf didn't chase after me. I wasn't sure if it did that I would be able to face Marcus again. Even though he lied to me. But it's impossible, I couldn't be in love with an animal, right? I was jerked out of my thoughts by someone calling my name, Jordan, my mom's boyfriend. Ew, for some reason the thought of my mom having a boyfriend creeped me out. But he's nice and I have no doubt my mom sent him to find me. I slowed down and eventually stop and leaned on a tree. When he finally made it to me I noticed he wasn't tired at all. What is this guy?
"So did my mom send you to find me?" He nodded before he spoke.
"Yeah, she's worried about you." I figured a much but I just couldn't bring myself to care yet.
"Well we need to get back to the house. Alice had a vision, a bad one." I started to say that I didn't want to go back to that house or see Marcus's lying face but what he said caught me off guard.
"Wait, Alice had a what?" He looked up at me like I was crazy and then realization shot across his face.
"Oh yeah. I forgot you don't know." Now it was my turn to look confused, well even more confused.
"Know what?" He mentioned for me to walk and I guessed he was leading me back to the house.
"Ok so everyone in that house, besides your mom and me of course, is a vampire." He looked over at me like I was supposed to say something but really all I could do was blink. I couldn't accuse him of lying since apparently I am a nymph, a magical creature, so why couldn't vampires exist? But it was just too real for me to comprehend, he continued. "Some of them have special powers that are unique to them. Alice is one. She can see into the future." That was different. "And she had a vision that something terrible was going to happen to the family, soon." By this time, somehow, we ended up back at the house. I was still upset but if something bad was going to happen then I guess I shouldn't be wandering around in a forest by myself. I walked inside the house to a much different scene than when I left. Everyone was crowded around Alice who was sitting in a chair staring blankly into space. I looked around the room until I saw my mom walking toward me, she brought into a tight hug and gave my an apologetic look.
"Sweetie are you ok?" Damn, I had almost forgotten that I was supposed to be upset. I looked around again until I saw Marcus sitting in a corner looking at me. I met his eyes.
"Yeah mom, I'm fine." She smiled at me and I found the strength to smile back.
"UGH!" The sound made me jump. Alice had stood up and was now pacing in front of the chair she was just sitting in. She wasn't happy. "God, I don't understand! Why can't I see this person?" I looked up at my mom.
"So why didn't you tell me that everyone was a vampire?" This made everyone stop what they were doing even Alice looked over at me. My mom smiled weakly and looked over at Jordan.
"You just couldn't help it could you?" He smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist making her smile even wider.
"It wasn't on purpose babe, it slipped really. When I told her about the vision I had to explain the whole story." She nodded.
"That's true." She turned back to me and smiled. "Well you know now and I was going to tell you I just couldn't find the right time I guess." I understood that, when I found out was probably the best time ever, it just didn't seem that way when I found out. Something that I had completely forgotten about was Marcus, he was still sitting alone in the corner. I stepped around my mom and walked over to him. He looked up when he saw me and immediately began apologizing, again. I held up my hand and stopped him.
"Stop it. Marcus it's not just the fact that you lied, you let me think that I was alone. You let me think that there was no one else in the world with powers like mine when all along you knew that there are plenty of people like me. How could you do that?" He didn't have an answer and I didn't expect him to have one. That would have just made me angrier. "Look I need time to think." He met my eyes and I could instantly the fear in them.
"Are you…are you breaking up with me?" I sighed and closed my eyes. I didn't want to break up with him..I just felt so betrayed. Sometime in the midst of all this craziness Jacob, Renesmee's boyfriend, and Seth, Kat's boyfriend showed up. I didn't see what happened before he spoke but I did hear the urgency in his voice.
"Dad," that was Jordan. Jacob tore his eyes away from Renesmee to look over at him. "Leah's coming." Jacob looked confused but then after awhile realization he wore the same expression as Jordan but before either of them could react the door burst open. A girl stood in the doorway she was tall and had a skin tone that was similar to Jacob's. Everyone in the room was stunned silent but from the corner of my eye I saw Edward gasp and turn to me. She scanned the room and her eyes rested on me. Her eyes, I've seen them before.
"It's you," I said it like it was supposed to make sense but it didn't, except to her it did. She walked toward me and stopped when we were less than an inch apart. Without hesitation she stroked my cheek and let her hand linger there.
"It's you," and then, she kissed me.
