a.n: Enjoy! =)
KPOV (Karen's point of view)
Jillian came running in to the house, a smile on her face. Zander was smiling too. How the heck could they be smiling now?
"She's alive!" Jillian shouted dancing around the Cullen's living room. Oh no.
Maybe Jillian should see a doctor... Esme was thinking watching my sister closely.
She's flipped her lid! Emmett exclaimed mentally. I would have agreed if I haven't been able to look in to Jillian's mind.
"She is going to live!" I found myself screaming before long. Why I was screaming I wasn't sure. But I didn't really want to know. All that was important now was that Mom was alive.
"What are you two talking about?" David asked looking at Jillian and I like we had three heads.
Jillian explained her vision to all the non-mind readers. Talking fast and excitedly as she did. I kept waiting for Dad's reaction to all this. To my surprise he didn't have one. He just sat there on the couch, Mom laid out in his arms. Mom's body was limp and looked weak. She hadn't looked like that in Jillian's vision...
JPOV (Jeremy's point of view)
Of course she was going to live! My children had lost it. Melissa never died in the first place. Where they got the idea that she had is beyond me. I mean really. Where do kids come up with this kind of thing? If Karen would have just listened to Melissa's thoughts she would have known. What kind of dead person has thoughts? I looked down at my angels face. She was smiling. It was only a matter of time now before she woke up. I'll be right here when she does. Holding her weak body in my arms. She wouldn't be weak for much longer.
Soon we'd be kissing in the Cullen's living room after saying our vows. Melissa would be in the dress Jillian had made her and I'd be in a tux. We will get married and then go on our honeymoon to where ever my love pleases. When Melissa was ready to return we will. We'll come home to out three beautiful children. Tell them all about our honeymoon. And of course how much we missed them.
JPOV (Jillian's point of view)
"I have to finish the dress!" I exclaimed realizing mom's wedding dress wasn't finished yet.
I started for the stairs but was stopped. By Alison. "So she's going to live?"
I laughed. "Of course! I saw it!"
Alison looked at me like I had lost my mind. "How is that possible?"
"Maybe the DNA just takes a little time to kick in. How am I suppose to know? All I know and care about is that Mom is going to live. That's all that's important."
"What if she's different?" Alison asked, not really to me this time. To everyone.
This brought me down. I hadn't thought about that. Would Mom be different? Does dieing change a person? I looked over to Mom in Dad's arms. Limp and weak. Dead. Not the way she looked like in my vision. I suddenly started to worry. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe I was just wanting to see Mom alive. What if she wasn't? What if she was just dead?
"Great now look what you've done." Karen said glaring at Alison. "Jillian I'm sure your vision was correct."
I pulled my eyes from my mother and looked at my sister. "You don't know that for sure..." None of us did.
JPOV (Jeremy's point of view)
Jillian shouldn't doubt herself. Alison didn't know what she was talking about. Alison was the one who got us in to this mess to begin with. She has no right to talk. She doesn't even love her daughter. "Jillian, listening to Alison is a bad thing to do." I said tearing my eyes from Melissa's face to glare at Alison.
"Oh so he can hear us." Karen muttered angrily. She had something against me. I hadn't done anything to her.
"Karen whatever I have done to offend you--."
She cut me off, yelling of course. "That! That right there is what's wrong with me! It's like your a different person or something!"
I shook my head. "No. I'm the same as I've always been."
"No your not! If you were the same you would be confronting your children. Being a father. Instead you just sit there and act like nothings wrong."
Before I could tell her she was wrong, Melissa moved.
No one in the room moved or even breathed. All eyes were on Melissa.
"Melissa? Sweetheart?" I whispered making sure to smile down at her. Her eyes were still closed but her legs kept moving. Twitching kind of. Like she was restless.
Jeremy... Melissa thought. Your so cold. Why are you cold?
"Mel, I'm a vampire. Remember?"
A smile crossed her pink soft lips. Oh yeah. I hate vampires...
"I know. You've made it quite clear."
Jeremy? Is it safe?
"Safe?" She had lost me.
Yes, safe. You know to open my eyes. All the danger's gone right?
I smiled again. Instead of answering her with words, I answered her with my lips. I kissed her gentle on the lips. She started to kiss me back. But ended the kiss all to soon. Slowly her eyes opened. She looked up at me with a bright smile on her face.
MPOV (Melissa's point of view)(Haven't heard from her in a while, huh?)
Before I knew it, three sets of arms were wrapped tightly around me. I did my best to hug my children back but it was hard to move.
"How are you feeling?"
"Are you still in pain?"
"Your not going to die on us again are you?"
It was just question after question. I didn't even get the chance to answer one before another was asked.
"Children why don't you give her some space?" A voice suggested that I didn't expect to hear.
My head shot up from looking at Jillian's smiling face to see Alison. Standing behind the kids in her black robe. Looking as evil as ever. Her eyes were red and fading in to black. They were also narrowed.
"Why don't you leave?" Karen asked in a low voice as she moved from the floor to sitting at the bottom of the couch. David and Jillian stayed in the floor but moved to the end of the couch with Karen. All of them glaring at Alison. Kids know who to hate and who not to hate, that's good.
"Because I want to be here for my daughter. How are you feeling?" She wasn't serious, was she?
"Fine. And since when am I your daughter? I thought you didn't claim me."
Alison smiled. "That was the past. I was hoping we could start over. Fresh start."
As much as I hated her, I couldn't let this chance pass me up. She was my mother after all. A fresh start seemed like the only thing we had left to save out relationship. I wasn't going to let my guard down though. The last time I trusted her, I got killed. And that's not going to happen again.
"Fine we can start over. Just don't expect me to trust you anytime soon."
Alison smiled again. Her smiling was a good start. "I understand."
"So, who's ready for a wedding?" Alice asked excitedly. I believe she was more excited about the wedding then Jeremy and I were.
I laughed. It felt so good to laugh again. "I know I am."
"I've been ready since I laid eyes on you." Jeremy said taking my hand in his then kissing my lips softly.
"Hey save if for the honeymoon!" Jasper said. This had everyone laughing. Even Alison. Maybe she was being truthful this time. Maybe she really did want to start fresh. Guess I'll find out.
"I have to finish your dress!" Jillian suddenly exclaimed jumping up. She bend down and gave me a quick hug before running upstairs. Alice and Esme right behind her.
I sighed and fell back on to the couch. It was good to be alive.
a.n.: Review please! Wedding should be the next chapter...! =)
