I don't own Twilight, nor the characters or plots. Including the Eternals. My intention for this story was different. I went a little off with the concept, but it's actually better than what I thought of. Also my timing with the story is wrong. I didn't know when the Cullen's came back to Forks. So just work with me.
It's the rest of the week I refused to talk to Edward. What happened with Edward didn't feel wrong; it was like we knew each other for so long. It felt like we belong with each other.
I just couldn't deal with looking at him and getting that same feeling in my stomach. What if he thought I was easy because of that kiss?
Let's not forget my dear Sister Bella has decided to live with Dad and I. Yes she's my sister and I like her, but she can get under my skin. And just having her here will make things complicated. I think about it later when she's here. Back to my problems.
After that incident I went home to get the book on my family's background. I did what she said and asked the book what was going on with my body and I hated when it didn't give me a straight answer. It kept repeating the same thing over and over.
We must not all learn from words, but actions. You must win one with your affections. Life soon will teach you to survive. If here on end you must stay alive.
At lunch that day Alice invited me to seat over at the Cullen's table. And of course Ryan pushed me and Alice took the chance and grabbed me. She dragged me behind her as we made it closer to her table; I had to be by Edward for a whole lunch period again.
"Look what the cat dragged in." Emmett said when Alice forced me in a chair.
"Hi." I mumbled to everyone. I looked around the cafeteria to see people starring and whispering to each other.
Across from me is Alice and Jasper, next to them Emmett and Rosalie, and right next to me is Edward. He sat closer to me here than in class.
Jasper said, "How are you doing? After you left the house it's like you disappeared." I remember Edward saying that Jasper doesn't talk to anyone outside the family. Why he's talking to me, I don't know. But his voice was hinting at something.
I stuttered for a moment. "W-well I-I've been busy."
He looked disbelieving when Alice popped in, "At lease you're back. I brought you here for my selfish needs."
I was confused and said, "What for?"
"To go shopping of course. We can get some clothes and fabric so you can make me a one of a kind outfit by yours truly." She finished saying.
I laughed. An actually laugh. It was genuine, "If it means that much to you, then we can make a date later."
Emmett was shaking his head, "I think you might regret that. When Alice s determined there's no stopping her."
Edward joined in, "She's not that bad. If you and Rosalie stopped ripping each other's clothes off you wouldn't have to face Alice's wraith."
I snorted, "Gross."
"So was the noise you were making before you hurried out the house." Emmett said and a silence was presented.
The glare I threw at must have scared him because he moved his chair away from my direction. I leaned on the table with my hands apart. "If you ever bring that up again I will break you into pieces and burn you."
Whatever I said spooked them all. I didn't even know what it meant.
The final bell has rung to let us out for the weekend. Ryan was carrying me on his back since he found us in the hallway. At first I was kicking him, but he ran with me, with me laughing and Candice right behind us. Outside he brought me over to the car. I hopped down next to Candice.
Ryan was first to talk," The weekend is final here. What can we do?" he paused, "Oh. We can go to my aunt's house in Seattle?"
Candice said, "I was thinking about a movie marathon for two nights of romance."
I shook my head," We did those already. Where's the creativity?"
As soon as those words slipped out my mouth we had the same idea come to mind and shouted, "CAMPING!" Some people starred at us and others kept their heads turned knowing about the 3 musketeers we are.
"Okay team. Pack your clothes and other personal items. We leave 4 tonight. That gives us one hour and thirty minutes. Over and out." I did a silly salute and they both walked to Candice's car.
I turned to get in the car when Edward decided to scare me and appear from nowhere.
A small short came from my mouth. "Are you freaking stupid?" I hit his arm with strength I never knew I heard had. He was pushed back a bit and had a confused face. He looked from his arm to me. Before anything could be said he left. I was too confused to even think about what happened just now.
I got in my car and drove home. In the drive way was dad's car and Billy's truck. I parked on the side and headed inside. The TV was on blasting a sports game and I look over to see Uncle B and Charlie. Someone was getting drinks out of the fridge. Just then Jake came through the threshold. They didn't notice my arrival, too busy watching the game.
"Well my day was good. A little boring, but I learned none the less." I spoke a loud so they can hear me. All of them heard me and jumped in their seats.
"Hey Meme, how's school?" Jake asked when I sat down next to him.
"Nothing really, we just learn like always." I replied.
He shook his head, "I can see where the boredom comes in."
Uncle Billy and Charlie heads was turned back to the game. They really were game heads, even though they didn't do any sports.
I asked Charlie, "Dad. Candice, Ryan, and I want to go camping this weekend. Can I go?"
Charlie turned to me getting ready to say no when he saw the puppy dog face I like to put on. He sighed and said, "Do you still have your pepper spray I got you?" I nodded my head. "Well you can go. And I know you won't have service. So be back at home Sunday before sunset.
I let out a small scream and raced up stairs. I packed up two warm outfits for Saturday and Sunday. And some sweats and long shirts. Along with some underwear. I would keep my hair in a big braid to stay outta the way. I even packed up my sleeping bags for when I slept by Candice's house.
I changed into some loose jeans and put a sweater over my white t-shirt. I change my shoes to brown boots. After I finished packing I ran down stairs and made sandwiches for today and packed some water. The rest of the weekend we hunt or fish for something.
An hour passed without me knowing and a car horned beeped outside. Candice was in her car with Ryan in the passenger seat. I went to Jacob and Billy and gave them hugs. As I did dad, but gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Bye." I said as I left out of the door and into the car with my friends.
A long car ride later
"Are we there yet?" Ryan whined from the back. Just then Candice pulled over to a lot where people park to go camping in the safe part of the woods. That was not our plan.
"Okay guys, get your bags and let's head off to nature." I picked up my bag and swung it over my back. "Let's get this walk over with."
I planned to camp at the place where I first discovered the woman and my powers. The woods felt like and extra comfort. I even brought the book with me. After an hour of walking and taking a rest to drink some water, we made it to my clearing.
"So what do we do first?" I asked and sat down my back next to my friends' bags.
Ryan shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm a growing man so I need some food. Can we eat then actually do stuff."
Candice nodded, "I didn't eat at home so we can. Hopefully we can have time to do at lease something before sundown. "
I dug through my other bag and got out the sandwiches. They were ham and cheese, my favorite. I handed them two and a bottle of water. I wasn't really hungry so I got the tent bag from Ryan and saw the instructions on how to build it.
They were too busy talking to notice me start to build up the tent. It was big enough to fit us three, maybe more. It was like a miniature house. I only got the chance to put up the rods to hold them up when they were done eating.
"Really Mene," Ryan shook his head. "You couldn't wait for us?"
"Well not really. I wanted to check out a lake not too far from here. I found it one day. We should fish there tomorrow." I was saying when we all got the tent ready to sleep in. Yup, we all can fit in here.
We put our stuff in the tent and zipped it closed. I took the lead and walked towards the lake. Ten minutes passed when we emerged from the trees and a big lake came into view. The sun was beginning to set. It was the perfect view. The lake reflected the suns color, giving it an eerie glow.
Later that night
I woke up from a noise outside. My friends were heavy sleepers; a storm wouldn't wake them up. I walked towards the entrance and unzipped it. I stepped out the tent and looked around our campsite. Another sound was heard behind the tent. Something inside me awakened.
I crouched and walked where the noise was last located. All of a sudden my vision cleared. It was like seeing in daylight, yet it wasn't the same thing. A shape was hiding by a tree 3 yards away. I ran in that direction. When I got closer that same feeling when he was around came back.
I came to a sudden stop. He didn't move when I first ran to him. My head lifted and I sniffed the air. His scent is strong against the smell of the woods. My head was stuck between human and beast. I was there, but had different thoughts traveling in my mind.
He could smell me. I knew he could, because I smelt him. Edward was far from human. But whatever he was didn't matter. His smell turned with lust.
I shook my head. I didn't want a repeat of what happened with the other day. Or even what could happen if I didn't stop myself. Clearing my mind, I turned and ran back to the campsite where Ryan was snoring and Candice moving in her sleeping bag.
Sunday night
I came back home and seen Billy's old truck parked in the driveway. Saying goodbye to my friends, I went inside and heard no TV on. Charlie must be upstairs. I climbed the stairs and went to Dad's door. I heard him snoring so he was asleep.
Bella was supposed to be here by now so I checked out her old room. I opened the door to see her in bed. The room was rid of the childish dreams. I glanced at her again and made my way to my room.
The old book sat on my bed where I didn't leave it. Actually was in my bag for when I went camping. The book flew opened as I stood in front of it. I didn't flinch; I just stood and watch as the words came forward.
Time will reveal its cruelty to you, be you are the one must remain true.
Okay I got only half of it. And time is not on my side.
Monday at school
I sat on the hood of my car watching as Bella made her way into the student parking spots. She didn't need my help; she probably didn't want it anyway. She's too nice to say anything about it.
"So that's your sister everyone's been rambling about." She was looking as Bella got out of her car.
I nodded my head, "Well she is his real daughter and she hasn't been to Forks in a while. I can see why that would talk."
Ryan laughed, "They'll talk because they're bored with seeing the same faces every damn day."
Bella seen me talking with my friends and gave me a small nod then headed to the office.
English Class
I sat down next Edward in class. I've been able to control myself against my lustful feelings toward him. I barley know anything about him and we already made out. The teacher put a movie on for today's lesson. I took out a note pad and wrote on it and passed it to Edward.
Me: I'm sorry for all that's happened. I don't even know what's going on with me.
Edward: God says to forgive and forget.
Me: So do you forgive me or not?
Edward: Yes I do. Alice would especially have my head if we continue to ignore each other.
Me: Good. And I'm guessing you read the book before since it's in your library.
Edward: Actually, that was one of the few books I didn't read. Until last week that is. There's something about you that's different. You're not… normal.
Me: Neither are you. You're far from whatever you're letting on. But I don't care. We all have secrets and sometimes they need to stay hidden.
Edward didn't write back. I did see him fold the note and put it in his pocket. Ryan and Candice are at a meeting for some club they're in. I keep forgetting the name. Edward asks me to sit with them at lunch and we meet up with his family outside the cafeteria.
Walking next to Edward some people turned their heads in our direction. Bella's sitting next to some people at a table in the center of the room. She's made some friends. We made it to the table where Alice start complimented the outfit I threw together. I had on a black, leather skater skirt, with a long sleeve red plaid, crop top. And some black boots.
Their outfits leaned closer to lighter colors making me stick out. Even the couple thing going on with between them, well expect Edward. As if he was reading my mind, he put his arm around my chair.
I could feel the students' eyes watching us. The whispering was starting to get to me. A beep noise was heard in my ear. The next thing I know I can hear their conversations. A certain one had caught my attention. It was going on at Bella's table.
"…He's totally gorgeous, obviously. But apparently, no one here is good enough for him. Like I care." I think the girl Jessica said. "Anyway doesn't your time."
Bella said, "I wasn't planning on it."
Bella's eyes were over starring at the Cullen's table. Her eyes landed on Edward. I look at him and he's looking back with a confused and frustrated face. I moved my chair closer to him and sent a glare at her. She saw me and quickly turned back.
I let out a little huff and Emmett laughed. For the lunch period Emmett would tell stupid jokes and Alice was telling me she brought fabric to add designs to her old jeans. I did talk, but was distracted by the possessive feeling I had for Edward.
After School
Charlie, Bella, and I sat in a booth at Dad's favorite Coffee Shop. They were talking amongst themselves when Bella bought up the Cullen's.
After Charlie finished talking I said, "Their nice people. A little reserved, but I would be too if the school goes around saying ridiculous things about me.
Bella replied, "You're one to talk hermit."
I threw a fry at her and she laughed. It's true I used to be alone all the time. However, I'm better now. My thoughts strayed back to them. The Cullen's were already gone when I got in the lot. They seem like they were in a hurry. I wanted to start the book report and get it over with.
At home the book would wait for me. Sometimes I got back to the forest and work on my… powers. Whatever to call it. But tonight, something was off. One minute I was in my room the next I was in an unfamiliar forest. A mountain was close by with a hidden cave. With control over myself, I ignited my hand is a white, fog.
I walked to the cave entrance where I saw a figure slowly emerge from. It was the same man that killed my parents. Forgetting my safety I ran to him. But he didn't even notice me. When I was standing in front of him I moved my arm and it went straight through him. His head turned in my direction and he reached out his hand with that I blacked out.
Oh did was the chapter? I hope it was fine. I want to get more of her heritage in here so I added the little scene. The way I have this story going it's awesome. My first fanfic and I'm proud. Thanks a bunch!
