It was just another day at the garage…doing constant work on both cars and bikes, but Clay Morrow knew that the Cullens were here in Charming. They just couldn't come right now due to their "condition" as he told the other SOA members. They wouldn't come to see them until at least nightfall. He gazed at his cell phone nervously.
"C'mon Carlisle…call me" he thought.
Like a charm, it rang. "Hey" he said.
"Clay? Is it you?" it was Esme.
"Yes ma'am it is. Where's Carlisle?".
"We're just resting up from the trip. Alice says to tell Jax hi".
"Got it. So…when can I expect to see ya?".
"We'll be heading out at sundown. Will that be alright?".
"That's perfect, ma'am. See ya then".
"Alright. See ya Clay. Oh, don't forget to tell Gem that we're here".
"She already knows".
"Thanks a lot".
"Not a problem" Clay hung up and Jax walked in.
"Who was that?" he asked.
"Esme" Clay answered.
"Wait, Esme Cullen?" Jax sat down.
"Believe it".
"Is Carlisle with her? What about the others?".
"Well…duh, Jax. God knows Carlisle and Esme don't go anywhere without each other or their kids".
"Clay…you know their not their kids exactly".
Clay shrugged. "Well, it's kinda hard not to say that they aren't their kids. Granted, Rosalie's a bit of a bitch, but…".
"Clay! You said you liked Rosalie!".
"I respect her, as the tough girl in the family. Oh, which reminds me, Alice says hi".
"Alice? The family psychic?".
"Yep".
"I thought she hated me".
Clay shrugged. "Guess she doesn't now".
"Well…when they comin'?".
'They're leavin' to come here at around sundown".
"Perfect. Does ma know they're comin'?".
"Yeah, she knows".
"Makes things better".
"Yeah, a little. Remember the last time she was here?".
"Ah…Rosalie again. Man, and we thought ma hitting that girl in the face with a skateboard was bad".
"Which is why we have to make sure that doesn't happen again. God knows what'll happen if Rosalie tries to pull that crap again".
"Agreed…so, you want us to straighten up the club before they come?".
"Nah, we got plenty of time for that".
"Hey" Tara came in, "What'd I miss?".
"We're gonna be having guests over here in a little while" Jax answered.
"Oh, did I come at a bad time?".
Clay shook his head. "No, we might actually need you later on. They're leavin' their place at around sundown, so we'll need to straighten up a tad around here in about an hour. For now, just hang tight".
"Alright…I'll stick around. Why aren't they coming sooner?".
"Uh…" Jax looked at Clay.
"They have this thing about sunlight, really bothers their skin, makes it really…shiny I should say".
Tara looked confused, but took it. "Alright, I'll just hang here".
With that she left, leaving Jax and Clay immensely relieved.
"Works like a charm".
"Wonder how long it'll take her to figure out the truth".
"Never…If Carlisle finds out we exposed his family's secret to the rest of Charming, the results won't be pretty. Trust me, you don't a vampire as your enemy, Jax. Take it from someone who knows".
A/N: I think this is a little OOC, but I hope it's okay. It'll get good in the next few chapters, I promise. See ya next chapter!
