A/N: Chapter Thirteen is edited… Thank you for those continuing to read this and for those who are barely giving this story a shot. Happy Reading!
Three days since Sam talked to me. Embry joined the pack and he was enjoying it. He expressed himself to me about how guilty he feels about not being able to tell Jacob or Quil. I told him how they were going to soon join us and to give it time. I was in my bedroom. Notice how I said my. Sam's been sleeping the guest room and has barely spoken a word to me. Rini and Damon barely notice it, but Stella can see it. I feel guilty, that I couldn't tell her that it was going to be ok because deep down I knew that it might not be. I was listening to Miserable by Lit. I looked at myself through the mirror. 'I am tough. I am a mother of three. I got through the tough times when I my parents divorced. I got through the times when my mom died. When I was raped. When I lost Logan. I can get through this. I am strong. Sam can not break me because he is angry at me. I don't care. My kids will come first.' I thought to myself. I brushed my hair and pulled it up into a ponytail and got out my outfit for the day. I changed quickly in it and grabbed my purse. Today the kids and I are taking a day off from the drama. Just the four of us. The storm was coming and I wanted to spend sometime with them, especially since the sun was out. We were going to the amusement park in Seattle, WA. Yup. Great Seattle. I walked out the door and went down stairs hearing talking and some shouting.
"Why are you guys not at school?" Sam kind of barked. My eyes narrowed. Hell no. Momma bear is coming out with her claws if he doesn't cool his ass down.
"I pulled them out of school, Sam. They're my kids and I want to spend time with them. If you are against it then maybe we'll speak about this later tonight. The kids and I are in dire need of fun. With all drama going on we need it. Now Rini, Damon, Stella, go get your sweaters just in case and then wait for me at the car." I walked towards the kids as I said the last part as they rush to get their sweaters and ran to the door and got in the car. I turned to the boys and looked at them.
"I ordered some pizzas for you guys. They'll come around by seven pm. So I hope you guys are here when they come. I don't know what time we'll be back, but don't miss us too much." I turned and walked out the door. I did not feel like getting into fights today. I got into the car, started the ignition, plugged in my Ipod and began to drive as we started listening to the remixed version of Dancer by Mc Magic. The kids were looking around excited as they passed some stores before we headed into the freeway. Thankfully, there was hardly any traffic in the freeway and we made it to Wild Waves. We parked the cars and did the whole check in routine with the tickets and all that buzz. We walked around and had some food before we began to get into rides. 'This is what I needed' I thought. 'Drama free and fun time with my kids' Smiling we ran around holding hands as we bought some merchandise and got wet in some of the rides. It was definitely worth for them to be ditching school. By the time we got out of the park it was already nine and we were barely getting into the freeway too. The kids were asleep as I drove. 'Today was fun. Tomorrow, I have to go shopping to get Stella some new suitcases and as well as Rini and Jamie some too. They leave soon.' I thought silently as I exited out of the freeway and on became the journey back home. I glanced in the rearview mirror to see how the kids were doing. They were still asleep. My eyes focused back on the road as I entered La Push and parked in front of the house. I woke up the kids and moved aside as they got out of the car. Locking the car, I walked toward the porch and unlocked the door as the kids and I slowly slipped in. By now it was 11:37pm and the kids were due for their bedtimes. I kissed their foreheads as they rushed into their rooms. I locked the door and started up the stairs. A yawn escaped my lips as I entered the room. I look towards the bed. Empty. I sighed, shutting the door and walked over to the closet and pulled out my pajamas and quickly changed into them. Tears slipped through my shut eyelids. As I slowly slipped into another horrible dream.
Screams. Crying. Four people with dark cloaks around them and another scream. Fire. Why do I feel like I'm burning. Make it stop. Make it stop. MAKE IT STOP!
I shot up from bed as I looked around slowly pulling the covers off of me and walked towards the room Sam slept in. Quickly opening the door I walked in and saw him sleeping. I didn't care if I was acting like a scared five year old, all I knew is that I didn't want to go to sleep tonight. Slowly, I got into bed with him and curled up. I felt him shift.
"Ana, what ar-" He began, but I quickly wrapped my arms around him shaking.
"Don't leave me, Sam. Please just hold me. I don't want to be alone. The visions." I gulped.
"They keep getting worse Sam. It's getting so bad, that all I'm seeing is death, Sam." I cried as I felt him wrap his arms around me, holding me tighter than usual.
"Sh. Don't worry. I'm here. I won't leave you." He told me softly. He kissed my forehead as I let the rhythm of his heartbeat rock me to sleep.
