An Impossible Reality

Chapter 2- The Reservation

Disclaimer- I unfortunately, after much therapy and depression have understood that I don't and won't own twilight or the sage so I can love instead. (My story though!)


Alix POV

The drive seemed shorter somehow, even though it was a fifteen mile journey. I was just thinking of what we were going to do on the beach, start a camp fire kind of thing, I have never been much of and outdoorsy type but I have always loved beaches, and the fact that this one is going to be cold is no different than to England. Formby beach in Liverpool was like ice, but I still had fun with my friend Kate and her dog Penny. Her mum was there but it was mostly me, Kate and Penny.

I am going nuts! I just saw another white blur in the forest, maybe I need my eyes testing or something, because white doesn't belong in a forest unless it has snowed. Surprisingly enough, we don't get a lot of snow back home. It would be nice to see it more. We had a white Christmas a while back. It was so pretty I wanted play with it more than my gifts but soon got distracted when they were opened.

I pulled round the corner of the forest and saw the tiny town emerge, the one shop dead ahead. And stood by this store was the one and only Jacob Black. I pulled up beside the shop and turned off the engine. I opened the door and almost ran to greet Jake with a hug. "Sorry," I smiled, "I'm a hugger." He laughed a little as I unhooked my arms from around his neck.

"You all set to go meet my friends?" I nodded and he slipped into the passenger's seat. I got in the driver's side and since I had learned to drive when we stayed here with my aunt for a few months I was comfortable with driving on the right side of the road instead of the left. "Try to drive on the right side of the road?" he joked cuing me to playfully slap him on the arm, I then continued to drive.

It was mere minutes till we were outside of his small red house. It was so cute. It must have been weird seeing my house then returning to one of this size. Poor Jake, hopefully he will live somewhere where his big exterior can live easily. He had to duck his head to enter his house, he really was getting tall. And his muscle was getting big too. I walked in and saw even bigger guys and a big enough girl. "You guys, this is Alix, she just moved in from England." The big guys easily waved to me, one even picked me up into a death hug, I am pretty sure if Jake hadn't stopped it the term would have been literal. His friends were Sam Uley; he was just a little bit taller than the rest of the guys but Jake was catching up. Then there was Paul, he was the one with the most muscle, he looked peeved to meet me. Then there was Quil and Embry, Quil was the one who picked me up and Embry was the one who laughed hysterically at my predicament, or maybe he was laughing at Jake's reaction. The girl was called Leah; she was quiet and reserved and was the furthest away from Sam, maybe she had a thing with him that ended badly.

"Nice to meet you all. Oh yeah Quil? Don't ever hug me like that again!" I tried my best to sound angry but that just made him guffaw even louder.

"Aww I'm sorry Al." I glared at him. That was a guy's name, and an old one at that.

"Don't call me that either!" I demanded and he nodded, he wasn't going to I could tell that far. I may not be the brightest bulb around but I can tell when someone is or isn't going to do something and he wasn't going to stop.

The group seemed to separate, Leah went off to some place on her own, Quil and Embry were having a sea weed fight, Sam was pinching the bridge of his nose because of this and Paul was flexing his muscles and lifting heavy bits of drift wood. Then there was me and Jake, wandering down the beach. He had his arm around my shoulders and I thought nothing of, I had sat on a friends lap before now, no difference really. "So you think you're gonna like Forks?" he asked, my looking up from the sandy beach to his big brown eyes.

I nodded slowly, trying to compose words. He had a baby face like me, but his worked for him. "Yeah, I mean America is America, and although it doesn't rain half as much back home as it does here, I think I could learn to love it. Do YOU want me to like it here?" I asked, his cheeks turned red at my question, I suppose mine would be too but I didn't have a mirror to check.

"I would, you are, as I have already said, a cool girl." He covered; it took a little bit longer than it should since he had already said it the day before. I nodded and looked straight ahead. We talked about our lives in the past, I shed a few tears about my nana, and Jake said it was stupid for me to have forced happiness to meet Billy, since the wheelchair thing reminded me of her. Then there was dad moving out, he brought me into a sensitive hug and told me he felt bad for me, but then he told me about his mother dying on him when he was younger. It was my turn to comfort.

I flung myself into his arms, which resulted in me also landing in his lap, "I am so sorry you had to go through that Jacob!" I sobbed a little, he had had the time to get over it, but I don't think I could have managed without my mum all this time. "Are you okay?" I asked when he tensed up beneath me. I look to his face and he was blushing. I looked at our position and quickly shot back from him. "I'm sorry." I said blushing a little of the fact I had that effect on him. I didn't think that would ever happen to me, I am not always a guy's first choice. Normally second to last if I'm lucky.

After an hour of telling crappy jokes and poking fun at each other we headed back to the now packed group of benches made of white driftwood. There was the people I had suspected, Quil, Embry, Paul and Sam. I was surprised to spot Leah here but it seemed to be an organised gathering. There was Billy too, I gave him a hug and then spotted the new people. There was a woman who Sam seemed to be with since he had his arm around her. She had a huge claw mark down her face, I chose not to stare, it would be cruel and unfair. Then there a kid called Seth. He had his mother and was at with Leah, must be family."Sis!" he complained to her as she stole his hot dog he was roasting on the fire. Her mother scolded her and made her give it Seth back. She stormed off after that. Jake grabbed my hand and pulled me to sit next to him. "Hey I'm Seth." Seth introduced.

"Alix." I smiled to him. I shook his hand and sat back down. Jake handed me a hot dog and I ate it gladly, I didn't realise how hungry I was, I guess a bowl of golden nuggets doesn't last you long. He chuckled when I wolfed it down my gullet, he did the same soon after me and we laughed at our pig like eating styles.

"Where are you from in England?" he asked, I hadn't ever told him that had I?

"Manchester. That is why I don't talk like you would expect me to." I stated taking a look at the time on my phone. Before it hit me it was 6:30pm and I had to be home. "Aww!" I moaned as I put my phone back in my pocket.

"What?" Jake asked, concerned a little.

"I gotta get home." I moaned and he moaned to, it was quite funny. "I know but I have to, I will call or something, we will spend more time together!" I declared and his mood suddenly brightened. He walked me to my car and we stood at the door. There was an awkward silence.

Jake broke it. "Sleep well, and be safe." He came out with. Soon after he said it he flapped his arms around in question to his brain, I giggled and gave him one last hug. He pulled me a little tighter to himself, a little weird for friends. I pulled back and he allowed it.

"I will Jake. Night!" I sighed and climbed into my car; he was in my back mirror before I turned the corner and became hidden by the trees. I took a sigh of relief, he told you he was almost two years younger than you, you can't think of him that way, you will leave soon and he will be heartbroken, as would you. I felt a thud on my car and I halted to a stop. Oh fuck! Did I hit something? But I could still hear the thumping on the roof. It was coming from the roof? I saw red eyes in my back mirror and I began to panic internally. One minute the eyes were there and the next they were at my side. Oh my god. What is this?

It tapped my window for me to wind it down. I shook my head and his hand retreated to smash the window, I covered my face to shield from glass and felt nothing, heard no smash. Just the collision of rocks. As soon as I was sure he was nowhere near me I sped off to my home, I needed to relax.

I ate my dinner in silence and left immediately to the bathroom. I nice hot shower would relax me I suppose. I did for a minute until I began replaying my frightful encounter with some kind of supernatural being. The red eyes lingered in my head, I couldn't believe it. I always wanted to believe in the stories you would see on the movie screens but my mum just said I was living a lie and should believe in what's real. But now I doubt my mother's teachings. What was her logical explanation for this?

I climbed under my heavy duvet and rolled onto my side, I would forget about tonight's journey home, or so I thought.

"I will Jake. Night!" I sighed and climbed into my car; he was in my back mirror before I turned the corner and became hidden by the trees. I took a sigh of relief, he told you he was almost two years younger than you, you can't think of him that way, you will leave soon and he will be heartbroken, as would you. I felt a thud on my car and I halted to a stop. Oh fuck! Did I hit something? But I could still hear the thumping on the roof. It was coming from the roof? I saw red eyes in my back mirror and I began to panic internally. One minute the eyes were there and the next they were at my side. Oh my god. What is this?

It tapped my window for me to wind it down. I shook my head and his hand retreated to smash the window, I covered my face to shield from glass and felt two shards stab into my arm and shoulder. I screamed in pain and fright and shock, especially when I felt a cold arm yank me out of my broken car window. I was still screaming in pain from the glass being pushed further into my arm with this being's grip.

He snarled at me and threw me to the ground. "You better shut up!" his voice threatened as I did as told. If anything being told to do something so simple with a threat like that was so simple I had to do it. He smiled "I am glad we understand each other." He stepped down to me and looked me in the eyes by grabbing my chin. "Aww, so beautiful, perfect to kill." He smirked, I tried to pull my chin out of his grasp but instead he broke my jaw. I yelped in pain and hear a woman's laughter from the background.

"Nice one James." She giggled, kissing him on the cheek. Eww, lovey dovey murderers. And at that moment a 3rd killer appeared behind me. "She smells amazing. Can we do it now?" the lady demanded impatiently.

"She is right James." The guy behind me stated. "We should play with our food." He smiled, looking down at me with black eyes. Wait a minute! Food?! I began to hyperventilate.

"Well, look at that, NOW she panics, not when I break her jaw or yank her out of her car, but when we say she is food." He trailed and all three chuckled a dark evil chuckle. I wanted to plead for my life, I hadn't even started school, here yet but I knew that if I tried it would hurt. "Let's do this." He smiled and tilted my head to the side, stroking my pulse on my neck. Oh my god, I know what they are!

I shot up in my bed and began to touch my chin, not broken. It was just a dream! Oh my god, I have never had a dream that scary, holy crap. Just then mum burst into my room. She looked at me, my face glowing with a sheet of sweat from my nightmare. "Honey! What's wrong? It was just a dream." She comforted, pulling me into an iron tight grip hug. I nodded and she pulled away. "You sure?" I nodded again, I was afraid to speak in case my jaw broke on me, any figment of my dream coming true would signal my hyperventilation. She got off my bed and looked at me for a while before leaving the room.

I turned to clock and it said 6:30am. I would normally get up for school right about now so I guess I might as well now. I climbed out of bed and wandered into my closet. I remember my friends, Jessica, Cesca, Ela and Becky buying me a going away closet, Cesca's parents are rich and the rest of my friends saved up for me. I remembered Cesca getting all hyped up about something before my birthday, and I wondered what on earth she could have gotten me that was so good. When they gave it to me, I flooded into tears. We had our ups and downs but we had a good foundation once Kerrianne left the group, she was trouble, I could tell.

I pulled out the dress, crème with orange detailing. I like to state the obvious of my favourite colour when I can. I also got my converse heels, they were orange too. I thought I looked pretty funky, with an orange shiny head band to pull my outgrown fringe from my face, my natural flicky locks curled naturally today, if my hair is going to go this way every time I have a nightmare then bring it! I liked my hair this way.

I grabbed my orange boyfriend sweatshirt and left my room. Mum was up to make sure I looked decent for the first day. I looked fine, I knew what was venturing too far and what was just right. I had skin coloured tights on today to keep the exposed skin warm. She nodded in approval and I left the house, orange backpack in tow. I looked better than most days, my cheeks naturally flushed today so blush was not needed.

I drove to school and I was there soon enough. Pulling into spots weren't my strength in driving so I picked the one that had nobody in front of it. There was a car across from me one spot to the left who had a few girls sat around it, the owner of the car sitting on the hood soaking up the attention. He spotted me and stopped talking to the other girls, all eyes on me. I was a paranoid and I was not taking this well, I just thought they were staring because I was a freak or something. "Nice ride!" he said, astounded by it. He was shocked, not taunting.

"Thanks," I said sarcastically as I walked towards the gates. There was a silver car that had pulled up into the car spot just seconds before but the people were waiting inside it. This boy caught up to me and was trying so hard to keep up with my fast pace.

"Where are you from? London?" I stopped to halt. My eyes narrowed into his and he stepped back I little by my sudden uproar of rage.

"Just 'cos I am from England, does NOT mean that I am from London! It is this kind assuming that makes me red with anger to the fact that this is what you think! You know what, do me a favour and look up Manchester, google it!" I spat, the look on his face spelt horrified perfectly, people were now staring and whispering as I barged past him to the office doors. I could hear a faint hysterical laugh coming from the silver Volvo. I rolled my eyes, so freaking funny! "Hi I am Alix Allbrighton, just starting today." I smiled, she smiled back, very pleasantly.

"There you go darling. Enjoy your first day and report back to me with this signed. You won't have to do it again afterwards." I nodded and waved before walking to my first lesson. Maths. Neither my best nor my worst subject. It flew on by. I got my slip signed and retreated to the seat I was told to take. But P.E. arrived, I hated it with a vengeance I will have to do unnecessary exercise, I don't like it, I do my own thanks very much!

Unlike most new girls, I brought my kit to change into. I was in short shorts with my orange converse and a stripy white and orange tank top. Very cute as well in my opinion. I leapt up from my feet to spike and as it hit the gym floor it bounced straight back up and hit a guy on the back of the head. "Ow!" he exclaimed, I ran up to him as he turned to look at who did it. The anger in his eyes died when he turned to me. He eyes me up and down before he just grinned.

"Are you alright? I am so sorry!" I apologised, he laughed, rubbing the back of his head.

"I am fine and you are?"

"Alix, Alix Allbrighton, you?"

"Mike. Mike Newton. You're new?" I nodded then a girl had come to know as Jessica approached us from behind. Placing her pale hand on the mike's shoulder. Were they dating? But then he subtly shook it off and she knew but not a lot of people were watching so they never noticed.

"She has a major spike huh?" she giggled, she was very peppy, I could learn to like this girl. I nodded and waved as mike returned to his basketball match. Then all of a sudden it was lunch. Jessica walked me there, and we were soon joined by Mike and a guy called Eric, he offered to do a section on me in the school newspaper but I am good. I don't want any more attention that I am already getting.

I was offered a seat with the group, I was making friends in some sense already and I liked it. I had my first day as loner town for the rest of my school year. I was totally set on focusing on my table but that is when I saw them.
