Edwards's pov
Once Alex was in her house Emmett and I rushed into the car.
"How'd it go?" asked Alice
"There's something wrong with that girl" said Emmett
"Why would she lie and say that her brother was there when clearly he was not" said jasper, so he noticed
"And why would her brother leave his car and not be there at the house?" said Rosalie
"Whatever this is I can tell you that this girl is not human and she is definitely hiding something" I said as we arrived to the house.
"Tell us once were inside" said Alice, I nodded.
We all headed to the house and were there in less than a second. Esme and Carlisle, sensing we needed to talk, were already at the dining room seated.
We all took our seats.
"So what happened today?" asked Carlisle
"It was much harder than the last time but I barely just managed" I said
Barely I heard Alice thoughts say do you have any idea how many times I saw you killing her?
"Yes she's alive" said Emmett in an annoyed tone "but what happened Edward? What makes you think she's not human?" everyone's head automatically turned to stare at me
"I have enough reasons to think that not only is she inhuman but she is hiding something though I don't think it is any of our business what she is hiding" they all nodded. "today I came across her in the parking lot and well the words that we spoke to each other were not pleasant…" esme looked at me worriedly and I shook my head, of course I didn't let anything slip.
"Something I said really angered her and…she growled at me it was inhuman. No human would have been able to make a sound like that and her eyes- her eyes- Emmett did you see what color her eyes were?"
Emmett seemed a bit confused. "they were black" he said it as though it was obvious.
"Her eyes are green" murmured Alice
"Yeah and when I talked to her- when she got mad- her eyes turned red I saw it"
"But how can that be?" Said Carlisle
"Well knowing that I think Edward is right that girl is not human" said Rosalie rarely did she agree with me but then again I had barely talked to her especially this past century
"Should we be worried?" said Esme
"Well they've been here for a month and everything seems to be fine…" he seemed to be deep in thought
They seem calm enough he thought
"if we see that something is amiss then I guess we should intrude, only if we see something that might point towards them though… otherwise I think maybe we should leave them alone and not intrude upon their lives" everyone looked at him and we all nodded we all agreed with him but I saw curiosity in Alice's mind as well as Emmett's and I myself was very curious, though I knew I shouldn't be. Being curious was taking a bad step but I didn't think any of it at the moment
"Anything else we should know Edward?" asked Carlisle
"Nothing that should matter Carlisle" I assured him
That night I went hunting and Alice accompanied me.
"So what are you thinking?" said Alice as I finished my third deer.
"I'm not thinking much Alice" I walked over to her and leaned against a tree.
"Yeah you are"
"I'm thinking what she could possibly be hiding"
"Yeah that's been running around in my head too lately"
"Trust me I know" she grinned at me
"There's something you didn't tell Carlisle" she guessed
"Its scary how you know me so well Alice. Should I worry?"
"not at all well I wouldn't be worried" I tried to chuckle. I wasn't successful however.
She noticed, "So what was it you didn't tell him" she asked changing the conversation
"It's not much. It's just that when she introduced herself she said her name was melody potter, and then she corrected herself and said her name was Alex parker. "
"why didn't you tell Carlisle"
I shrugged "I didn't think it important"
"but it does draw some attention" she added and I nodded "I noticed something too" she said
"what?"
"there are some periods where her future just gets lost, then it appears much later, sometimes it disappears for hours.
"Eavesdropping Alice?" she stuck out her tounge at me
"Call it whatever you like but you have to admit that it is weird Edward"
"It is do you think she is something like a werewolves" I said remembering the werewolves from la push. How you couldn't see their future
"I don't think so because I never could see the werewolves and with her I can see her but her future just goes missing sometimes. Besides she looks much to weak to be a werewolf"
"Could she possibly be hanging out with a werewolf or something of sorts?"
"I don't know" she said thoughtfully
"Well keep looking out for her future and try and see if there is a pattern to her disappearances. Does it happen often?"
"Almost everyday not to day though" an image of Alex crying in the darkness of her room passed through Alice's mind
"She's not doing very well is she?" I asked and she shook her head
"I just don't understand what could have possibly happened to her that is making her react like this and Edward you haven't seen that girl the past few months but everyday she seems worse well emotionally at the least. Today was what really scared me though"
"I know what you mean she looked worse than the first time I saw her."
"Edward she seems like living death. I kind of keep expecting her to drop dead at anytime. A human can't go through such depression, it kills them eventually"
"Yeah it does I don't even think it is possible for a human to experience such pain. I've never seen any human in such pain that is so evident in her eyes.
"the look in her eyes scares me… they are dead and hold no emotion but at the same time there's something in them I cant quite say what it is but it scares me a lot"
Oh no I cant do this I cant become too interested in this whole situation. It not right
"We shouldn't be worrying over her own problems Alice its none of our business"
Oh Edward you try to be so cold… her tone was disapproving
"Just forget what we just talked about Alice"
The next day she wasn't at school
An image of Alex curled into a very small ball on the corner of her room passed through my head and I glared at Alice
She's not getting any better did I tell you that on the weekend I couldn't see her future at all?
I ignored her completely
On Wednesday she was back and she looked very slightly better.
She wouldn't speak to anyone and she ate alone.
It was just as hard as that first day to sit next to her in biology. I was well aware of her but she seemed to be unaware of any of her surroundings. Her face was blank and she didn't move at all throughout the whole class. It was such and eerie sight that no one not even the teacher tried to break her out of her trance.
We never spoke. Not much had changed though. As curious as I might be about this creature I still hated her and I still wanted to kill her. Her smell still made my throat burn and I was still in much pain. I was still cold and careless on what happened to me and I still missed her and grieved her.
Alice kept looking out for her future but I refused to listen to whatever she had to say about Alex.
The months passed and I noticed that once a month she would leave early on Friday and come back on Monday looking worse than when she left. She looked so bad to the point that her skin no longer was pale but it began to get a very light tint of grey. Her bones were very noticeable and she wouldn't eat at all.
But nothing changed for me. Nothing really happened until December….
its short i know but theres not much that edward does in the next few months
he remains sulky and grieving for bella
on alex's side though there are many things to tell
mostly from the wizarding world
i will say this though there will be more alex and edward after the winter break
