The Twilight characters belong to Stephanie Meyer, not me. Unless she is putting them up for sale, but I don't think that she will be doing that anytime soon. Even if she did I don't think that I have enough money to buy them anyway.
Dani, Karin and Jack belong to me. And no they are not going up for sale either.
Here is chapter four.
Sit back, relax and enjoy!
Reviews=Happy me!
Their house was freaking amazing. Gosh, I wish I could live in a house like this. It was so beautiful. And so big. It looked like something out of a movie. I noticed a piano sitting in the corner of the room. I wonder if anyone played it or if it was just part of the decor.
"Do you play?" Edward asked me. He must have noticed me starring at it.
I shook my head no.
"I wish though," I said wistfully, a small smile gracing my face.
He smiled at that as he started to walk down a hallway with Karin and I following him. We entered the kitchen. A girl with light brown hair was standing at the stove.
"Who was at the door?" she asked as she turned around. You could tell she was a little shocked to see us. She looked familiar. I thought back to where I saw her. Oh right she was at the table with them.
She smiled at us, sticking her hand out. "I'm Bella."
"Dani and this is Karin." I motioned to Karin with my head as I shook her hand, smiling.
"We had a flat, well a couple of flats, and we were hoping that you guys might a few." I told her.
I motion towards the guy who now had his arm around her waist and was about to continue when I realized that I didn't know his name. My confusion must have shown on my face.
"My name's Edward. Sorry about forgetting my manners." He told us with a smile.
"It's okay," Karin replied, looking almost dreamy eyed. I mentally rolled my eyes. Can't she tell that he with Bella. I was about to comment to Karin about that little tidbit of information, that even I could see, when I heard someone clear their throat.
"Oh, hey jasper." Edward greeted. Japer. The blood drained from my face. Thankfully no one saw, because they are all focused on saying hi to Jasper. I don't know what it is about him, but I always get flustered and shy when I am around him.
I never get flustered or shy around anyone. Heck I took a picture with Avenged Sevenfold and didn't even blink. They are practically my idols.
But no, with this guy I just want to go hide behind a curtain. I'm pretty sure I saw some out in the living room too. Hmmmm...I wonder if they would notice...
A quiet chuckle from Edward caused me to break out of my reverie.
"What's so funny?" Karin asked.
"Oh nothing, just remembered a funny joke." He chuckled again, looking at me. I was curious as to what the joke was and why he looked at me when he said that.
An awkward silence seemed to settle over the five of us. Jasper was looking at me. I was looking anywhere but Jasper. Bella was looking confused. Karin kept looking between Jasper and me with a grin on her face, while Edward was looking between Karin and me, smirking. The silence was deafening. We were probably making a hundred gay babies.
The Pirates of the Caribbean theme song sliced through the silence like a sharp knife, making me jump. I dug my phone out of my pocket, thanking God for whoever is calling me. I looked down at the screen. All those thoughts of praise and gratefulness flew straight out the window. It was Jack. Great. What does he want? I tried to keep the scowl off my face as I answered the phone, but from the look that Karin was giving me I wasn't doing a good job of it.
"What?" I snapped.
"Hey Dani. Is everything okay? You sound annoyed." He asked. I sounded annoyed? Good, cause I was. I was having a perfectly good time, well not exactly perfectly good, not even remotely good. I was having a perfectly awkward time before he called and ruined it.
I know I sound bitchy but like I said, Jack was not in my like list. In thirty years I might be able to stand the guy but right now, no.
"Everything is fine. Karin and I just got a few flats." I told him, while giving a pointed look at Karin.
"Do you need me to come and get you two?" He sounded sincere, but I knew that he would just be doing it to get on my mom's good side.
"Nope, we're fine. Listen Jack I'm a little busy right now."
"Oh, right, sorry. Well your mom and I were wondering if you wanted pizza for dinner?"
"Thanks, but no thanks. You guys can get whatever you want. I'll just pop some popcorn when I get home."
"Oh, okay." He sounded a little let down by this, but right now I just wanted to get this conversation over with. This wasn't conversation I wanted to be having in front of people.
"I'll see you and mom and home. Bye." I clicked the end button before he could even say good-bye.
I looked back up at Karin, smiling as if I didn't have a care in the world. He stared at me for a bit as if she were trying figure out a puzzle. I hate it when people give me that calculating look. I'm not some recluse who doesn't talk about my feelings, but I don't broadcast them like some people do.
"Hey so I should probably be getting home. It sounds like my mom is worrying again." I lied. Yes, I should probably be getting home, but I knew that when Karin dropped me off I wouldn't be going home for a few more hours.
I needed time to think and I wouldn't be able to do that in a house where either A.) My mom keeps bugging me about why I don't like Jack, B.) I can hear the kissy noise that my mom and Jack make or C.) I am forced to sit and watch a James Bond movie, one of Jack's favorites, so that we can have "family bonding time".
Karin, being oblivious to my thoughts, really believed that my mom was worrying about me being out after dark. She nodded and turned to look expectantly at Edward.
"Right this way, ladies." He motioned towards a door, which I figured lead to the garage.
We went out single file. First Edward, then Bella and Karin. I was right behind Karin, while Jasper was right behind me. If I hadn't know that he was there, I wouldn't have thought that anyone was behind me. He walked so quietly that those magical elves from the Lord of the Rings books would be jealous.
I love those books by the way. Sure there are some spots that are a little boring but all in all they are pretty exciting. I also had a major crush on Legolas when I was little. So sue me. I mean come on; he is tall, blond and handsome. What's not to like?
I swear I heard a chuckle coming from Edward. Does this guy have some mental issues or something? He keeps laughing randomly. I do that too, but only sometimes and never in front of people I just met. Don't want them to think I am crazy.
Like he knew I was thinking about him, Edward turned and looked at me a small smirk like smile on his face and a twinkle in his eyes. I smiled back with the word tweaker popping up in my head. His smile seemed to grow. I looked away and focused on Jasper talking to Karin about her tires.
"Do you know what type they are?" He asked her.
"Uhhh...ummm..."
"I'll take that as a no." I tried stifling a giggle, but it ended up turning into a snort.
Karin turned and glared at me. "Oh shut up."
"I didn't say a thing." I snickered.
"You were so thinking it though. It's not my fault I don't know what type of tires I had. I'm not a car person!" She pouted, crossing her arms.
Again I snorted. No, but she sure knew how to destroy the tires. Karin flipped me off. I clutched my heart as if I had been stabbed.
"Oh that hurts. That really hurts." I staggered back a little. Karin just glared harder. I smiled, blowing her a kiss.
I could tell that the others were just as amused as I was but Bella, being the sweet girl that she seems to be, decided to save Karin from any more embarrassment. I don't know why. Karin deserves it all. After everything I've gone through today.
"Well since you don't know what type of tires you have, how about if Jasper drives you and Dani home and then Edward and Jasper can bring your car down later after they figure out what tires it needs." She suggested to Karin.
"That would be so perfect!" Karin gushed. Perfect. Perfect for who? Don't I get a say in this?
"So there is going to be a neighborhood barbecue" Oh a barbecue, fun, "and even though you guys don't live in the neighborhood, well except you Bella, it would be great if you guys showed up." No! Not fun not fun. Karin seemed to have gotten over her embarrassment quite quickly and had gotten back to her evil little scheme.
"Sure we would love too." Jasper said with a smile, while Edward nodded in agreement. Oh no. I'm in trouble. Is Karin trying to kill me here? Is that how people from Forks welcome you? Embarrass the hell out of you.
With what seemed like a wicked smile Edward said, "We wouldn't miss it for the world."
If I didn't know better I would bet a million bucks that he knew what Karin was planning and was trying to help her.
"Yah! Isn't it going to be such fun Dani." Karin smiled, looking at me. I knew it was more of a statement than a question, but I knew she wanted me to make some type of comment. Oh she was so dead when we got back to town.
But being the nice person that I am, I forced a charming smile and said, "It's going to be a blast."
I am so dreading the weekend. God I know you are up there. If you love me at all, then please, I beg of you, save me.
Author's note:
First off, if anyone was offended with the gay babies comment then I am sorry. I didn't mean any disrespect when I wrote that.
Second off, I know pretty much zilch about cars, but I do know that you don't need specific tires, unless you have some type of special car that need some type of special tires, but I'm not talking about that. But in this story we're going to say that Karin's car needs specific tires.
And third off, I also don't know the inside of the Cullen house, so for you Twilight fangirls out there that know wayyy much more than I do about it, please forgive me if it is wrong.
