Part Two

TPOV

I wasn't expecting her to say that. Bold she stood there leaning on the counter the cup to her lips watching me. I knew she at the very least had an idea as to what I was. Wonder how she came across my world. Her body was tense.

" Fair enough "

Didn't she say she had a cat? I didn't smell one " Where's you're cat?" I knew she had been lying but I asked to lighten the air.

She laughed " Yeah sorry bout that "

" You don't seem that scared of me. I half to ask how do you know of my world? "

" you're not the first of you're kind iv had run in's with. "

Not the first? And she's still human? A interesting story im sure. I moved slightly not because I had to it was just natural for me to move every so often around human's. She watched zeroed in like she was expecting something else.

" Im not going to hurt you " I wasn't planing on it anyways

I moved slower this time walking towards the couch and sat down. Everything smelled of her.

She followed sitting across the coffee table from me in a small chair. She sat on one of her feet. She leaned back the cup of coffee resting in her lap.

" I'd like to hear about some of you're other " Run " in's " She looked nervous

" do you have a gift? " She was avoiding my question

" You have quite a bit of knowledge of my kind... Yes I do have an ability not as powerful as others but I am a very good tracker " She nodded

" Well It's because of certain ability's that I can't explain thing's. I feel like a blip on somebody's radar and I've spent months steering clear of that..." She slowly turned the cup in her fingers

"I don't understand"

She looked at me frustration clear on her face. She was struggling with her word's.

She leaned forward " A few year's ago I was attacked by a nomad another of you're kind saved me for reason's beyond me I learned a lot from said vampire. One of the member's of the coven is very gifted one of the best tracker's But not the kind of tracker you are This one can sense people from any where just from some one seeing or hearing the target its after So by me telling you certain thing's can land me on that radar and they'll find me "

" You're not the same as others are you? You abstained from human blood? " her eye's were guarded I wasn't expecting that. Very few of my kind where like that. I'd only ever heard of a few coven's that lived that way. I for one only hunted animal's when trying to keep a low profile in an area with a low population such as this one and people turning up missing would create unwanted attention I was unsure how to answer her. She was waiting her pulse picked up She was starting to fear me again. So I lied

" Yes. I'm different from others of my kind. "

She relaxed a bit but not as much as I would have liked. I wasn't sure what I was doing here. Or where this was going. A passing moment in time a break from roaming around. Sounded good to me.

"Don't you belong to a coven? "

" Yes they moved on day's ago I'll catch up with them soon enough "

She pulled her foot out from underneath her and sat on the other one crossing her other leg on top of the knee. " You stayed behind because of me? "

" Yes … I knew the moment you looked at me that you knew something I just didn't know what I was curious and to be honest bored. It's in my nature "

She smiled this didn't seem new to her.

" So you have you're answer you must be bored again "

I shook my head " Not yet "

My Coven was sorta like me. They were at ease in the human world was able to live side by side in many way's with out exposing us for what we really are but They didn't like to stay in one place for very long. We kept to ourselves and enjoyed our life style. We'd just returned from France a few week's ago a long stint of art and culture but one of our member's had drawn to much attention to us so we left. He's the youngest still learning to control his appetite and has a bit of a temper. To be that young again.

" So what know? " Funny I'd just wondered the same a moment ago

" I don't know This is interesting to say the least. And I must admit You seem very much alone. "

She smiled

" It's kinda what I was aiming for but as much as I've tried to distance myself from you're world no matter what I've done I always find myself right back in the middle whether it's vampire's or some other supernatural being " She rolled her eye's and smiled a little wonder what that's about.

We spent the better part of three hour's talking she cooked something to eat which didn't smell very good but she ate it so must have been good to her. She never turned her back fully to me which suggested she still didn't trust me.

She avoided subject's she felt would some how tip off what ever gifted vampire she'd spoke of before.

It was fast becoming 2am when her cell phone rang. Seemed late for a phone call by human standered's anyways. Must not have been a common thing because she looked at it with surprise,

She gingerly picked it up and answered

" Hello? " she paused listening I could hear a man's voice on the other end.

" Bella we have problem's "

" What? "

Bella? Odd nick name for Sara maybe a middle name " Sara Bella "? No much to corny sounded more like a part of the brain.

" One of you're leaches caught wind of you "

" How? "

" don't know.. wasn't me.. Was running a patrol with Alice Emmett and Paul and you're leach stopped dead in front of me I almost ran smack into her "

Doesn't sound like another vampire Wouldn't keep referring to his own kind as a leach must be the " Other " supernatural beings

" heard her say you're name and like a bat outta hell she was off Emmett hot on her heel's "

" Going to tell Edward " It wasn't a question she was stating a fact. She looked around the room before her eyes rested on me. Something had been said that tipped off these other vampire's

" What are you going to do? Their going to go to you "

" Leave before they get here.. If they drive it'll take a day or so If they run maybe less So I guess I head out tonight " She looked stressed

" Well you better start now I think they'll take the fastest way to you. Call me after you've left and headed "

" I will thank you for giving me a head's up "

" Hey Bells? "

" Yeah? "

" I miss you "

" I miss you too Bye Jake"

Her hand fell beside her and she looked around the room again. This was my fault im sure.

BPOV

I racked my brain trying to figure out what it was that i'd said that coulda tipped Alice off but it could have been anything who know's really what she was keeping an eye out for. It could have been a phrase I used a lot for all I knew.. One word to explain how I was feeling Panic complete and utter panic.

I wasn't sure what to say to my new friend but I had to get outta town before dawn.

" Im sorry but I half to get going "

My guard was down I moved past him heading for the bedroom. I yanked a duffle bag out from under the bed and tossed some clothes in pulled the shoe box out from the closet I dumped most of it in a side pocket in my bag and shoved the remaining amount of money I had left in my pocket. I switched my flipflop's out for a pair of boot's. And shoved them in my bag and closing the zipped I threw the bag over my shoulder. I spun around and once again came face to face with Trevor. I'd almost forgotten about him.

" I can help you get out of town "

I wasn't even sure if I could trust him not to eat me but my option's were limited if any. I was lucky to make it out of Forks with out them catching my scent. I didn't know if i'd get that lucky again.

" can you get me out with out them catching my scent? "

He smiled " Can you handle getting wet? "

Wow.

" Yeah "

" Than yes I can get you out of town with out leaving a scent "

I Stood a few feet from the crashing waves of the Gulf of Mexico. It was winter and the water was going to be cold Great.

He smiled down on me and like a flash of lighting I was on his back and he was trotting towards the water. Was I doing the right thing? Trusting a Nomad I didn't even know? Bout to find out.

Soon he was treading water My duffle bag was floating behind me inside a plastic bag. The water was cold but holding onto him was even colder. I couldn't help the shiver's running threw me.

He swam out really far and I couldn't help but think " Shark of shit sharks.. Oh shit " I hated the water. I hated Dark water even more. If I couldn't see I didn't want to be in it. And there was no moon. I could barely see the light's from the shore and after a few more minute's I couldn't even see those.. " Oh shit "

I felt silly holding on to him bobbing in the soft swell's. He swam with out so much as one complaint.

" thank you " I coughed a little my timing sucked just as I opened my mouth to say it a wave hit me in the face.

I felt him laugh " You're welcome "

I don't know how long he swam It seemed like forever. But I noticed we were heading towards light's. Soon he was touching bottom and walking out of the water. I could feel the wave's crashing into my thighs. A few seconds later I was on my feet. The beach was dark. I could barely see him. I stood still. I wasn't sure which way to go. What I did know I was freezing.

" Where are we? " I couldn't help the chattering of my teeth as I asked.

" From the smell of the Cajun I'd say New Orleans "

Wow he swam a whole state over Damn

" come on let's get you outta those clothes "

wow

" Into something dry " he added. I could almost hear the smile.

He took my hand and lead the way. After a bit we were walking on a wooden side walk. Salt grass on either side of us. It was almost as tall as I was. Small solar light's lit the way. We were in somebody's back yard. I could hear a small dog barking. The closer we got the dog yelped a little and then stopped. Maybe the owner got tired of it and smacked him or it sensed danger and figured it was best to shut up.
