Chapter three
EPOV
The door creaked as it opened. Moth-eaten furniture upon dust covered floors graced me. The dark would have made it impossible to see if I wasnt a vampire. I stood transfixed at the door with my family behind me. I knew they were talking to me but I couldnt hear. Faint laughter was surrounding me. I felt someone else there and turned to watch as two kids stumbled into the clearing. Shock covered their faces but not at the glitering vampires. No, at the house. They couldnt see us, they were from another time. The little boy with unkept hair grinned and pulled his friend forward. She tried to tell him no but he wouldnt listen.
Whispering into her ear, she blushed and nodded. The ran up the steps and passed me holding hands. Her blue dress flapping behind her as they continued to run up the stairs. At the top they stopped and turn to me. The boy smiled crookedly at me while the girl winked. And with that they disappeared down the hallway.
My eyes widdened as I followed them, my feet moving on their own. There was no family. There was no vampires. There was just them. At the top of the stairs I saw her dress turn around a corner and through a door. My heart clenched painfully. I knew that room.
It was our room.

I lightly placed the guitar back onto the bed. All of the sudden I heard the front door open. A gasp escaped me. No one had ever found this house! How dare they enter! But than again it was never legally our house. It might as well have though with the amount of time we spent here. Voices floated up to me. More than one person than. I wonder how they found it. It was literally in the middle of nowhere! And its not like anyone followed me. I thought with a sigh.
Footsteps came towards the door. Frozen with fear I prayed they went away and I slammed the door shut, locking it. I could see the handle shaking. My eyes widdened. Quickly, I turned and jumped out the window landing near six strangers. They glittered in the sun. But more than that, they saw me. Like really saw me. Fear gripped me and I ran. Ran from the strangers, ran from my home, ran from my past. I only hope it doesnt bite me in the arse.
ThirdPOV
The family watched as Edward entered the house transfixed. It was like he was possessed. Jasper sensed he was feeling emotions that felt so old it was like he was in another time altogether, no longer with them. Everyone was confused. Of course they had all heard the story of him and his friend. Most of it was with this house. It was like their second home. With that in mind, it was suggested that they waited till Edward was ready for them to come in so he could deal with his past by himself first. Esme wasnt happy but she eventually agreed specially after seeing the house.
The house which looks nearly as old as Esme herself (For this she was turned in 1918 instead. Hope you dont mind!) was falling apart in places. Windows were smashed and all the paint was chipped. Boy it would have been a beauty in its original state...thought Jasper. The family listened as Edward tredded lightly through the house leaving most untouched. A door slammed upstairs making the vampires jump. Edward didnt do that surely...he was walking down the hallway at the time. And theres little to no wind about. Everyone passed uneasy looks. What was going on?
Thud..!
Heads snapped towards the light noise. With widdened eyes, they observed a girl - no a women - who must have jumped out of a third storey window. Emotions of unbelief poured off everyone but most especially the girl. Panic gripped them all. Bella was staring in disbelief as she realised they saw her. Impossible! She thought.
Suddenly, she turned tails and ran.
Her footprints gently touching the ground leaving a faint mark before disappearing altogether. (think of when you push something down and it comes back up looking like you never touched it.) It wasnt long before she was across the other side of the clearing fading under the shade or the trees. As soon as she hit the tree line, she disappeared from sight, no trace left to say she was ever there. The vampires left standing there shocked as they came about to their senses. Not only has someone seen them in their unnatural form but had just vanished!
Edward had finally entered the room. Looking around he spotted a guitar resting on the bed with no dust cover. Odd... Making his way over to the closed window, he spotted his family staring off into the distance. But for the life of him (no pun intended lol), he couldnt understand what they were doing. His brow creased as he continued to observe his family as they watched a gap between the trees. Just what was going on?
Im sorry this took so long to be put up. I never knew how hard it was to write down your idea and make it sound good before I tried doing it myself. With that note, I apologies in advance to anyone who I have ever said hurry up too or will say it too. I now understand your stress! Truly. Oh and if you know of any good marine/army/poilce/swat. etc stories, please do share! It takes me forever to find one good one. Thanks very much :) Hope you have enjoyed this so far!
