A/N: This chapter is still in Jeremy's point of view but the next will be in Melissa's again.
We followed her for at least an hour. Where were we? Where ever it was not many people lived around there. All you could see for miles and miles were trees and grass. You might get lucky and see an animal but surely not many. Maybe that was because they felt a threat near by. Our kind of vampire sure was a threat to animals.
Melissa finally pulled off to the side of the road. I saw her turn and tell the kids something. Whatever it was got Karen upset, it looked as if she was yelling at Melissa. After a few short things were said Karen shut up and just glared out the window. David was silent though the conversation. I got out of Edward's Volvo the same time Melissa got out of her black convertible.
"What? What is it you want from me?" She asked glaring at me but I noticed when ever her eyes were on Alice they were softer,kinder. Once again I wonder what I did to make her feel this way towards me.
"Like I said before I just want some answers." I made sure my voice was clam and my eyes welcoming to her.
"Okay what do you want to know?" Was it really going to be that easy?
Would she actually answer my questions. I decided to start with a easy question.
"Alright. Are Karen and David my kids?" It sounded so strange coming from my mouth.
"Yes."
"Why didn't you tell me about them?" Melissa got quite at this question.
Man, I should have asked another question!
"Next question." Melissa finally answered after a short silence.
"Why did you leave me?"
"Because of the kids."
Then I asked the question that had been eating at me since I saw her again.
"Do you still love me?"
"Next question." She answered to fast. The words left my mouth and she answered.
I shook my head. "No. This ones either a yes or a no. Do you still love me?" I repeated moving to her.
Melissa took steps back the closer I came.
"Mel, you know you don't have to be afraid of me. Just answer the question."
She began biting her lip again. What was with that anyway? Did it make her feel better or something? I started to reach for her hand but something I couldn't see grabbed my hand.
"What the...?" I muttered as I was suddenly picked up and thrown half way across the field that was next to the road.
"Why did you do that?!" Melissa shouted angrily at thin air.
Who was she talking to? And who just throw me? As I stood up I saw Alice get out of her car. She was heading to stand next to Melissa but stopped when a man appeared in front of her. Whoa! Where did he come from?! I could tell he was tall, tan and strong. His hair was black but I knew nothing else about him. I was pretty sure I had never seen this guy before. I was just about to run over to Melissa and find out who this guy was when I heard a voice in my head.
Are you okay?! The voice asked. It was sweet, beautiful and child like. I looked over to Melissa's car and saw Karen and David looking out the window at me. Karen looked worried while David glared at me. I nodded at Karen. A smile crossed her face, she looked so much like her mother it was hard to believe.
Good. I can read minds you know. Even when a ghost is around. Karen told me still staring.
That's great, honey!
I thought back then her sentence fully clicked in my mind.
"Ghost?!" I shouted.
