Edward stared through the window, looking for a glimpse of- aah. There. Although he'd not seen HIM in centuries, he knew he could never forget HIS face. It was impossible. No one could forget those deep, green eyes, flecked with gold... but. He was there for a reason. So he smiled, and watched as a familiar look of recognition and horror crossed HIS face.
Sabrina was confused. What kind of an expression was that? And she was confused as to why the ginger haired man had inspired such a feeling in Puck. Never the less, she smiled at the man and politely asked, "Who are you, sir? And why are you looking at us through the car window?"
"Edward," the strange man replied, "and I'm looking at you through this window because I'm the man who hired you. Or her husband, at least. And may I enquire as to the well being of the gentle Puck?"
Sabrina gawped. How did the man – Edward – know Puck's name? Well, that answers one question... she thought, it sure does explain Puck's... recognition... of this man...
"Well yes, sweetie, it does. I'm Edward Cullen. Pleased to meet you."
Which led to Sabrina being even MORE confused.
Alice was also confused. She couldn't see the futures of any of her family members. Not only was it confusing, though, it was worrying. Because she couldn't see any one else's. Not even any humans. It was worse than the battle against the new borns...
"He's one of them." Puck stated flatly. "One of the gay posse. Well, he's bi, really. But still."
"It's lovely to see you too, Puck. How goes it? The boss will be delighted to hear you've come to visit. It's a shame that I could never read YOUR thoughts. I'm sure it'd be delightful. Oh well, you simply MUST come and meet my wife, Bella."
Sabrina was feeling more confused than ever. What was it with gay guys and Puck? They all seemed to instantly adore him. Well, that's quite understandable, really. After all he is H.O.T! Wait! No! I didn't think that! That didn't cross my mind once! Never has done! Sabrina stared at the man.
"Did you just hear what I thought just then?"
"Yes..."
"Oh. Well. Don't tell Puck, then? Please?" she was beginning to feel REALLY worried. She didn't like that man knowing every thought that flew into her head. Or Puck's expression just then, when she said that. AND she was confused...
"Never mind YOU being confused, Dearie, Because i really am. Why aren't you scared of my ability to read your thoughts?"
Oh. Yeah. Right. She SHOULD really be worried about that more than any thing else. But after meeting up with hoards of magical everafters, she wasn't really worried about that. What she was worried about was-
"my lack of magical powers? And why you're not addicted to me? Well, that's because i'm not technically an Everafter. I'm a vampire."
Oh. Well, that explains it! Suddenly she burst out laughing. Feeling more than a bit creeped out, Edward turned around just as a petite brunette pounced on his back. After a whispered conversation, Edward's smiling face frowned at whatever news the female vampire had brought. The girl looked confusedly at Puck and Sabrina, before clapping her hands wildly.
"Oh, do excuse Alice, my dears. She's a vampire too, and she's specially gifted like me. Her power is to read the future, and... Oh. You, dearest," he said, pointing at Sabrina, "Already know what she just saw. In fact, both of you do. And you don't like it."
"Oh." Sabrina guessed at once what it was. "It's the marriage thing, isn't it." Alice gasped, looking confused.
"It's okay. I can't see the future. I have been to it, though." Sabrina explained. "There was this trouble with Cinderella and her boyfriend – no, not Prince Charming, the mortal one – Tom. He wanted to be an Everafter, too, and created these time tears all over the place. My sister and I got sucked into one, by accident. And anyway, it's 'Billy' and Snow. No one else is allowed to touch Charming."
"Okay. You're life is too confusing, even for me, and I'm a vamp." Alice's confused expression hadn't left her face for the whole conversation. Suddenly, both vamps tensed. A micro second later, Puck did too. And when the creature arrived, Sabrina... waved?
"Hey! Chipmunk! What are you doing here?" she asked the surprised man.
"Me? I... live here. What about you? And who's the dude? And why are you hanging around with the Cullens?"
"They HIRED me, Jacob. I AM allowed to talk to people without your permission? "
"Well, sure. But you still haven't answered the other question. You know, about-"
"I am Puck, the Trickster King... And Sabrina's fiancé."
"Puck! We had an agreement! No telling random people! Or anyone! Including any of my childhood friends!"
"Oh. Yeah. Right. Sorry, Grimm." And Jacob made a whipping motion with his wrist.
"May I ask how you have come to know this werewolf?" Edward enquired.
"Werewolf? Jake, what's he- "and as she watched a sheepish grin slide over his face, she cried, "What is it with me and impossible creatures? And I don't WANT a best friend who's a werewolf – I already have one as a guardian!"
"Hey!" he cried, looking hurt, "It's not my fault! Blame those blood suckers over there!"
And just as the reality of the company she was keeping settled in, a figure swooped overhead. A figure followed by a much smaller one, probably about the size of her little finger
Guess who the figure is? And no, it's not a giant talking marshmallow...
