Ch. 3 Questions answered
Annabelle's P.O.V.
"Well, you see, it is very cold here in Forks so my skin is cold. As for stiff, I was nervous about going up on stage. The reason we all look different is because, well, we ARE all adopted. If you saw our 'Parent's' you'd think they're too young for kids so, yeah, we're all adopted." explained Alice. In the background I heard a car door shut. I could also hear two heart beats that were faster than normal. I guessed it was Edward, Jasper, Emmett and Renesme. The other heart beat was probably Jacob Black, since he can't stand to be away from Nessie ever since he imprinted on her. I could tell Alice heard them too. Soon they were right next to us. "Edward! Renesme!" exclaimed Bella as she hugged her husband and daughter. Alice and Rosalie did the same to Jasper and Emmett. I was the odd one out again. "What about me?!" asked Jacob. "Hey Jake." I said. "Thanks Anna." He said. "Sorry we have to cut this short but we want to get the girls home soon. We heard on the news that there was going to be a huge rain storm." explained Edward. Just then rain started to pound on the roof of the venue. Then a man about 40 years-of-age came out by the boys and said "Sorry guys but we can't get out of here until the storm passes. All airports are closed." "Man!" exclaimed Jason and Shane. "We have to go." Said Jasper. I could tell he was getting uncomfortable with all these different emotions going on around him. I quickly pulled out a piece of paper from my pocket and wrote down my cell number really fast. "See ya guys." I said as I gave each of the brothers a hug. When I got to Nate last I handed him the piece of paper and whispered "Call me sometime?" in his ear. Then we walked back to Alice's Porsche.
The ride home was pretty boring. I guess I should explain to you more about me. My name when I was human was Annabelle Marie Brandon. No, I'm not related to Alice that way. I'm getting to that. Growing up I lived during the same time as Alice did, except I'm 4 years younger than her. I always got what I want when I was little. When my parents decided I was too spoiled they tried to stop. It worked for a while but that's when I learned I could persuade people into getting me whatever I wanted. It worked on my family and friends. Also, it worked VERY well on the guys. My family consisted of my older sister Caroline who was 19 and best friends with Mary Alice Brandon, aka Alice Cullen, even though she had premonitions. My parents were named Hannah and Gregory Brandon.
Alice was like my other older sister. She didn't mind hanging out with me when my sister was busy. Sometimes we all hung out together. Alice never gave in to my persuasions. It made me mad. Then, when Alice's family put her in the asylum, my parents decided to put me there too. Back then it was unnatural for a girl to be so persuasive. Alice and I had rooms next to each other, if you could call those very uncomfortable cells 'rooms'. There was a man there who really liked Alice. The man was no human. I could figure that out easily. He was so beautiful. He didn't look like he was from Mississippi like us. One day the man did something to Alice. I later realized that he bit her and changed her into a vampire. When Alice came back to her room three days later she was acting all weird and was paler than before. I remember that day better than any other day in my human life. I asked her if she was all right. She looked at me and had dark black eyes. I became scared because her eyes were usually a light brown almost hazel color. That's when she sniffed the air around her. Her mouth formed into a large smile. She then bit me. She then heard something and ran away. I climbed onto my cot and did my best to look like I was sleeping. People didn't pay much attention to me so that was good. All I remember of the next three days was burning, burning and blackness.
I lived as a nomadic vampire for a while. I killed SOME humans. I always felt guilty for killing them so I tried animals. My lifestyle turned into a bit like the Cullen's.
I lived with Tanya and her family for a while. This was after Bella's wedding and all that. One day I heard her talking to them on the phone. I persuaded her to let me talk. When they talked to me I introduced myself and I heard Alice for the first time in a while. We talked for a few hours catching up on things-like Edward, Bella, and Renesmee's story, the fact that she is legally married to Jasper, Rosalie and Emmett, Esme and Carlisle, and last but not least, what I've been doing since she left me in the asylum. A few months later I moved in with the Cullen's. I took Edwards old room, seeing as he and Bella moved into the cottage. During the night I practiced musical stuff. I had no interest in other things. I learned I could sing very well. I learned how to play guitar, piano, and violin. Everyone was surprised that I didn't break any of the instruments like Rosalie had. I was calmer. Music soothed me. It didn't take them any persuading to buy me an acoustic guitar and a violin when I wanted to learn, seeing as Edward already had a piano in the house and they were unbelievably rich from over time.
When I got home I decided to research more on Connect Three. I fired up my blood red colored Dell laptop and immediately went to Google. In the search bar I typed 'Connect Three'. I saw they had an official website, You Tube, Face book, iLike, my space, fan club and 3 CD's already. I learned their ages, full names, and anything else there was to know a bout them. (A/N: I'm not goanna waste my time with it b/c I KNOW that those of you who read this are JB fans like me.) I spent the night listening to their music, watching You Tube videos, and learning ALL about them. Nate's story on his Diabetes made me cry again. Oh yeah! I forgot to tell you that I kinda have two powers. I also have my human reactions to some things i.e. i'm able to cry accept its venom (A/N: Sorry! I just have to put this in here. I get most my ideas from other stories I read so if you recognize anything that is yours please don't get mad. I'm giving you credit right now.), and lastly I'm able to blush. My 'research' continued until the next day up to about 7 am.
End of Chapter three! Sorry I didn't post it earlier. As you guys from the forum know, I am running for Student body prez. this year. So I had to work on my speech and I'm trying to come up with a Slogan. Can you guys help me? It will get me to update sooner!
Peace.Love.Jonas!
