VERY IMPORTANT AN: I hope you guys enjoyed the last chapter! Now I have a little challenge for you guys, I actually have 2! This chapter is SUPER special and I'm sure you'll find out why. It was VERY hard for me to do and took me weeks to plan! So I would really like you're input. So far I have 27 reviews, which is awesome because I never thought I would even 1. So I wanted to set a target for 40 reviews, so 13 more, I know you guys can do it so PLEASE try. The second challenge is kind of a competition. The baby is going to need a name so I was thinking if you guys had any good names could you please send them in as reviews, because my PM is kind of on the blink so please try to do that too. Wahoo, finally done with that, *wipes sweat off brows* your reward for reading the longest author note I have ever written... THIS CHAPTER! ENJOY!
Chapter 12: Past and present.
Hero,
"Go shower and we will come meet you up there, Esme would have cooled off a little by then." Edward whispered.
I didn't reply as I trudged up the stairs. My phone blinked with unread text messages which I ignored and jumped into the shower. I wouldn't have minded staying in there the whole night but the water got unbearably cold, even for me. I slowly slipped on boy shorts and a baggy T- shirt of Emmett's. I sighed as I opened my bedroom door, no point prolonging the inevitable I guess. They were all standing there of course, standing there in their still yet graceful vampire way, except Bella of course, awkward and clumsy as always. I smiled a little at the thought, dearest sister of mine.
Esme stalked into my room and lowered herself onto the armchair near my bed and Carlisle stood behind her, with his palms resting on her shoulders. I knew exactly what was going on here, they were going all Parent army on me, they obviously didn't know me if they thought I was going to break that easily.
Alice and Bella sat on either side of me while Edward sat next to Bella. Emmett sat next to Rosalie on the floor and Jasper crouched on the floor in front of me.
"Explain." Esme ordered, her face was completely expressionless.
"There was a boy back at the home; he was called Jacob. You remember him, Bella?"
Bella nodded. "He was the all round bad boy back at La Push, Him and Hero used to hang out a lot."
"Continue." Carlisle said.
I rolled my eyes. "One night we snuck out to a party and we were kind of drunk, a little high too, we robbed the mall and the police men were chasing us and we ran and ended up behind a super – market somewhere."
"Yeah, that was the night you came back smelling like Alcohol and weed. It took ages to get the smell out the room before Sister Mary came around for inspection." Bella muttered.
Emmett, Edward and Jasper snickered. I even saw Carlisle's lips twitch.
"Do you know where we can find Jacob?" Alice asked, glaring at Jasper.
I shrugged. "He got adopted before Bella and I left."
"Did he know?" Esme asked her voice breaking.
My heart tugged, I never wanted to hurt Esme, and she was the only person who I felt I could talk to without being judged.
"I don't think so." I answered timidly.
Esme took a deep breath. "Ok."
I blinked. Twice.
"Ok? That's all you have to say?" I asked.
"What do you want me to say Hero? Because frankly, I'm just as confused as you are!" Esme exclaimed.
"I'm so sorry." I mumbled, I could feel the tears stinging behind my eyes."
"I can only think of one thing to do." Esme finally concluded.
"What?" Carlisle asked.
Esme turned around and looked me in the eye. The next words she uttered chilled me to the bone.
"You're going to Volterra."
AN: Hope you guys enjoyed it! Remember 13 reviews is the challenge, I normally update like 2 times a week so I normally just check my reviews on Thursday or Friday!
