.:Chapter Twelve - The Fear:.
I sighed as I rolled up the windows to shut out the cold night air. It was dark out past the windows of the truck, and I was pretty sure that it was going to be raining when I arrived back in Forks. I sighed as I relaxed slightly and turned the volume of the radio down, and then took hold of an unwrapped juicy cheesy BBQ wraps I'd got from a local KFC on the way out of Port Angles.
I'd got three, along with two large drinks; Coke and 7Up. And a small box of Popcorn chicken.
I was happy and content with this, it was the kind of stuff I'd lived off most of my life, that and the BBQ for some strange reason reminded me of my original home town, Houston, Texas; in my own head that sounded stupid, there were plenty of things that could remind me of that place - So why BBQ sauce?
I missed my home town - I didn't remember it well, but I knew I missed it, kinda like I'd miss my hand if it was cut off. I was five when I was taken from there, after been forced to leave the long yards of fresh looking greens, yellows and browns, they were replaced by fake greens, harsh yellows and unbearably dark browns.
I remember little things, like horse riding with my Dad, and making buns with my Mom. I remember one thing quiet well though, and that was that at night my Mom would sit me on her knee and my Dad would tell me stories; I remember waking up the next day in my bed and not knowing how I got there.
Looking back now, it was easy to assume that my Mom or Dad had carried my to bed and put me there, but at that age everything was a mystery: Some things still where.
I shock my head slightly as I forced the more sadder memorise of my Parents out of my mind, after all these years I still couldn't face the truth of their death.
I sighed as I finished the wrap and just in time for me to reach the exit into Forks. I sighed as the heavens opened and rain hit the truck like a water fall. I sat silently for the last few miles into town, and then turned the radio off when I'd reached the street Morgan's house was on.
I sighed slightly as I turned off the truck and then grabbed my stuff. I pushed open the drivers door and then jumped out, I then shut the door and locked the truck. I then turned and rushed towards the porch; I mean I may have liked the rain, but I was in no mood to get wet to night.
I closed the door silently and then made my way towards the staircase, and then dropped the truck keys into the key bowl, I then silently made my way upstairs when I realised Morgan was asleep on the sofa.
I shut my door quietly, and then turned to face my bed. I stopped short, the confusion probably evident on my face. In the middle of my bed sat a small delicately wrapped parcel. I walked towards the bed, and then placed my bags down on the floor.
I scanned my eyes over the delicate silver wrapping paper, along the silver were swirled patrons in every colour my eyes had every had the chance to see, wrapped around the silver was a aqua blue ridden that was pulled into the most precise bow I'd ever seen, slid under the top corner of the bow was a small piece of lilac paper.
I sat down calmly with my right leg tucked under the bridge of my left leg. I then slowly slid the paper free, and proceeded to unfold it when I found it had been folded over twice. I traced my fingers over the large script like writing that read - SORRY.
I frowned slightly as I laid the paper down and then slowly slid the ribbon from its bow, and then peeled the paper back. My eyes widened when they set upon the silver frame that had been hidden beneath the silver swirl covered paper.
I slowly picked the frame up, the touch felt to smooth against my skin almost like as if it had been freshly polished. I ran my fingers along one of the engraved rose and leaf patrons; there were four, one for each corner.
I smiled slightly, this thing that had visited me was human of some sort, and part of me wished it would visit again. But part of me worried, what if this was some kind of cruel trick some one was playing on me. The smile quickly left my face, I had to be ready for anything. My life had not changed completely, I knew then I would always been in fear of something, or one...
