Chapter 8: In The Silence

Within an hour, my arm was fully attached and functioning once again. The whole time I was confined to the couch was spent talking to Alice and telling her random memories from our human lives. Of course, she couldn't remember them and Steph wasn't about to pull out any more memories.

When Carlisle declared that I was fully healed, Stephanie and I headed home after quickly hugging the Cullens goodbye. Alice seemed sad to see us go, but she knew that we would see each other at school again.

"Well…that was interesting," I finally said after a few minutes of awkward silence.

"Yeah…interesting…" Steph said while staring blankly out the window. She didn't even turn to look my way.

"What's wrong Steph?" I asked, worried about her.

"Nothing," she said quickly. Too quickly. I sighed and didn't press the point. Today had been long enough.

"Whatever you say Steph…whatever you say." The car was once again engulfed in the awkward silence. The second that I stopped the car in front of our house, Steph was jumping out of the car and running inside. I sat and stared blankly after her.

Stephanie had never acted this way before. Lost and confused, I slowly walked into the house. Steph was in her bedroom: the door was locked and closed. Sighing, I headed past her doorway to my own room and gathered things that I would need for my shower.

After finishing my shower, I sprawled out across my bed, trying to figure out what could possibly be bugging Steph.

Out of nowhere, a crash sounded from Steph's room, followed by her scream.

AN: Okay, It's short I know but I need to figure out where to go with this story. X.x please review? Sorry for the looooong wait.
