Chapter 6
Hey guys how are y'all? I really hope that good. I wanted to thank y'all for your reviews. It really means a lot to me.
So Esme is half vampire half human now, in other words she's a hybrid. I still don't know what power in going to give Esme but she is going to have one besides having compassion cause I think that Esme would have been a very cool vampire if she had been able to do something more than to be compassionate.
Anyway so in the previous chapter y'all got to know what Karla's and Carlisle's blood can do. Karla can turn a full vampire into a hybrid and Carlisle can heal wounds. I think that looks great in Carlisle since he is going to go back to being a doctor.
Anyway I will now leave you guys to the chapter.
I do not own any of the twilight characters but I do own the ones that I've created.
With that said I will now leave you guys to the chapter.
Enjoy!
ESME'S POV
I could hear everything that Carlisle dad talking with Alice downstairs, even though Emmett had the television on.
"Touchdown!" Emmett yelled standing up from his seat.
I couldn't see him but I could imagine him by what I was hearing
"I'm so sorry Esme. You're here all in pain and I'm here all happy because the Seahawks scored the first touchdown." Emmett said.
I wish I could have rolled mu eyes at him.
"Even though its a replay." He said.
If I could I would have laughed at him.
"Future wife." I was what caught my attention from downstairs.
What? Who was going to get married?
"How do you know that? I haven't even thought about it?" Carlisle asked.
"I'm so sorry Carlisle. Now Esme heard me too." Alice said.
Carlisle was getting married? To who?!
Carlisle sighed. "Its okay Alice. I eventually will ask her to marry me, right?" He asked.
"Yes! And I'm already planning everything! The dress, the shoes, the decorations! I wish you could see it! It looks so beautiful!" Alice said sounding excited.
I shut then out then. I didnt wanted to listen to see who Carlisle was going to marry.
What if it was some other woman?
I wouldn't be able to take that. Now I understood why Carlisle kept saying that once it was done there was no going back.
Had I even made the right choice? What if all this time I wanted to be with him but he didn't wanted to be with me? What if he was just feeling sorry for me and that's why he was with me?
I took in a deep breath and let it out. Now that the pain was bearable I felt like I could breathe.
The pain wasn't like it was in the beginning. I didnt feel like I was being burned alive now but I still felt the fire, and then I felt like I had flames going gown my throat.
Could that be the thirst?
"Dont worry Esme. You have a little bit more and then the process is complete." Emmett said patting my hand.
I wish I could talk to Emmett. This process was making it harder since I wasn't able to talk to anyone.
"Still watching the game, Emmett?" Edward asked coming into the room.
"Yeah. I thought that it might help Esme distract herself from the pain." Emmett said.
I wanted to smile and tell Emmett how thoughtful it was from him and to thank him. That it actually did.
"She says that its thoughtful of you and she wants to thank you. That it actually does help her." Edward said.
How did he do that? How did he know what I was thinking? It wad like he knew how to read minds.
"I actually can Esme." Edward said.
How?
"Its a gift. Some people get gifts when they turn into vampires. Alice can see the future but it changes made on decisions. Emmett is the strongest of us all. Jasper can change someone's mood. Rosalie got her beauty. Gisselle can see the past and the present and she can show it to someone by touching them." Edward said.
What do you mean?
"Its more like a 3D vision. It's like you're actually there but nobody can see you." Edward said.
What will I be getting?
"That we still have to see. Carlisle has self-control. We're all waiting to see what you'll get." Edward said.
How much longer?
"Just a few minutes. Your heart has to stop and then it had to start again." Edward said.
Then my heart started to beat faster and all the fire was back. It started to leave my toes and finger tips and it started going towards my heart.
My heart was beating so fast that it sounded like a helicopter.
The fire was stronger. It was like the first time that the venom entered my body.
It stayed like that for a few minutes and then it started slow down making it easier to breathe.
Then my heart beat slowed down until it was barely beating.
I heard rushing steps coming into the room. One after the other.
There were so many different scents in the room. There was someone to my right that smelled of roses and lavender.
I immediately knew who it was. I knew that it was a woman and I knew that it was Karla because of the scent of her blood. I remember that she had sweet blood, but there was someone next to her which had to be Jace.
He smelled differently. He smelled of sunlight, honey, Jasmines, and lilies.
Then my heart took its last beat and then it stopped.
Everything was silent except for the others hearts.
Was that it?
Then my heart beat once. A few seconds later it took its second beat. A few seconds after that it took its third. It toom a few minutes before it was back to normal.
Was my transformation complete now?
I didnt feel no pain. I didnt feel anything.
I opened my eyes and looked at the ceiling.
Everything was so different.
Everything was so clear.
So sharp and defined.
The light was brilliant.
I could even see every single one of the rainbow colors in it. I could see the dust motes in the air. I could hear everyone breathing at a different rhythm.
Some were nervous.
I took in a deep breath and smelled different scents all at once.
Sunshine, honey, lilac, pear, sea water, pine, lavender, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, freesia, roses, and so many more.
There was someone on my other side and by the scent I immediately knew who it was.
He smelled of sunshine, honey and the sea.
Carlisle.
I smiled feeling proud of myself for being able to recognize his scent.
Someone squeezed my hand and my body reacted before my mind did.
I flipped off my back in a spin so fast that it should have left me dizzy. I looked around where I was and found myself crouched against a wall defensively.
What's happening?
Then I realized that it had been Carlisle the one that squeezed my hand and that I had overreacted.
His skin felt different. It didn't feel hard anymore.
It felt soft and smooth.
I looked around and saw that the rest wad standing against the wall. I straighten up and kept looking at them.
Jasper and Emmett were covering the rest.
"Esme?" Karla asked.
I turned to look at her.
She walked forward and Jace right behind her as if guarding her. Ready to jump in front of her in case anything happened.
Dont be afraid. We're here to help you. Karla's thoughts echoed in my mind.
"What?" I asked.
"You look confused and afraid. Dont be. Its just us." Karla said.
I sighed. "Everything is so different." I said.
Karla nodded. "Yes its going to be like that now." Karla said coming to stand in front of me.
I gasped.
She looked so different. Her beauty popped out more.
I reached out a hand to touch her face.
"Karla be careful." Jasper said.
I furrowed my eyebrows.
Why would Jasper say that?
Then I saw my hand. I turned my hand over to see my palm and then I turned it back to see the back of my hand again.
My skin was different.
"How do you feel?" Carlisle asked.
"Confused." I said.
Carlisle nodded. "That's normal." He said.
"You're probably wondering how you look." Alice said bring a full length mirror that was against the wall.
I looked at myself and stood there in shock. I looked different and at the same time I looked the same.
"Do you think that I'll look different to everyone else?" I asked.
"You see the difference because you can see all the details clearly." Carlisle said.
I nodded.
My eyes were not dark brown anymore but light brown. My hair was still the reddish-brown but now it had more volume. More color and it shined more. It was in loose curls at the ends. My skin was a pearly color.
The woman standing in front of the mirror was absolutely beautiful. She had smooth perfect planes of her features.
My features.
"What do you think?" Alice asked.
"Can I go out in the sunlight without burning?" I asked.
Everyone chuckled and relaxed.
"All of us have been out in the sunlight." Rosalie said.
I smiled. I looked back at the mirror. I was wearing a dark red dress with a black jacket and black boots.
"What do you think?" Gisselle asked.
"I think I can get use to my new reflection." I said with a smile.
Everyone smiled.
Then my smile disappeared.
"My mother?" I asked.
"She's in the hospital. She still hasn't given birth. She still has a few hours which means that you have a few hours to hunt as well." Alice said.
"I need to hunt? But I'm not hungry." I said.
"Its a precaution." Alice said.
I nodded. "Okay. But why do you have me all dressed up if I'm going hunting?" I asked.
"Because you're half a vampire now which means that you are getting a whole new closet." Alice said.
I rolled my eyes.
"Shall we?" Carlisle asked offering me his hand.
I put my hand in his and we walked together to the window.
"We're jumping out the window?" I asked.
Carlisle smiled. "Well if you want we can go down the stairs and walk out the front door." He said.
I shook my head. "No its fine." I said.
"This should interesting." Emmett said.
I sighed.
Great. If I messed up Emmett was going to be making fun of me for the rest of eternity.
"You want me to go first?" Carlisle asked.
"No, no. I want to go first." I said. I had seen enough movies to see how people jumped off two story buildings.
I took in a deep breath and then I let it out. Then I jumped out the window and landed with one knee on the ground and my leg extended and one of my hands on the ground. Then I stood up and looked up.
Everyone was trying to see out the window.
"Nicely done Esme!" Alice said.
I smiled.
Then Carlisle jumped and landed next to me. "Ready for your first hunting trip?" He asked with a smile.
I smiled and nodded.
He took my hand in his and we started walking at a human speed.
"Can I ask you something?" I asked.
"You can ask me anything." Carlisle said.
"Are you sure that no one is going to notice the change?" I asked.
Carlisle smiled. "Nobody is going to be noticing because they are going to be very focused on finals next week. They'll give you a second look probably next school year but that's it. To them it would be seeing you without makeup and then seeing you with makeup." He said.
I nodded. "That's a great difference." I said.
He nodded. "Yeah but we can still be normal for a while. Then we have to move." He said.
"How do you do it?" I asked.
"Move on?" He asked.
I nodded. "Its hard at first when you have a family that you wont be able to see. But after a few decades everyone is dead and it gets easier." He said.
I sighed. "I wont be able to see my family anymore?" I asked.
"For a few years yes but then everyone will start to wonder why you're not getting any older and the Volturi might get involved." He said.
I nodded. "But we can always keep an eye on them, right?" I asked.
Carlisle smiled. "Just like I looked out for you." He said.
I nodded and sighed.
"What's wrong?" Carlisle asked.
"I heard when Alice said that you're getting married." I said.
"Oh! Aren't you happy?" He asked.
Why would I be happy?
"Look Carlisle I get it. I know that you were just trying to protect me, but you should have told me." I told him.
Carlisle stopped walking. "What are you talking about?" He asked.
"Why did you wanted to be in a relationship with me when you were already with someone else?" I asked.
Carlisle looked confused. "With who?" He asked.
I sighed. "I dont want to know. So I'll just go away so you can be happy. I dont think I can be there." I told him.
"But you have to." He said.
"No I don't." I said.
"Yes you do." He said.
"Why? Can't you see that its going to be painful for me?" I asked.
"Because it's you who I want to marry." He said.
"What?" I asked.
Carlisle came to stand in front of me. He took my face between his hands. "I love you Esme. I wouldn't want to be with anyone but you. You complete me. I know that its too soon, but Esme will you marry me?" Carlisle said before he took a small blue box from his pocket and he got down on one knee.
I gasped.
"I have been alone for a long time but nothing will make me happier than to share my life with you. The moment I met you everything changed. I looked out for you since you were little and I saw you grow up into the wonderful woman they you are today. Esme nothing will make me happier than to be able to call you my wife one day. Esme Anne Platt, will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?" Carlisle asked.
I smiled. "Everything changed for me as well the night you saved me. You went from being my savior, my protector, to being my lover. But to me you will always be my lover, my savior. So yes. Yes I will love to be your wife one day." I said with a smile.
Carlisle smiled and stood up. Then he took the white gold ring and put it on my ring finger.
The ring was beautiful. It had a light pink diamond and it had a small white diamond on each side.
Then Carlisle pulled me towards him and gave me a light kiss.
I didnt know if it was me or the change my body got but none of us was prepared for what came next.
I kissed Carlisle hungrily and then I ripped off his shirt.
Carlisle picked me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist. Then he pressed me against a tree. "Are you sure that you want this?" He asked.
"Yes." I said before I kissed him again. I took off my jacket and threw it on the floor.
Carlisle kissed the side of my mouth and then he made a trail of kisses down to my neck.
Then we heard someone coming.
"Someone's coming." I said between breaths.
Carlisle set me on my feet them.
A few seconds later Alice appeared. "I'm so sorry to interrupt." Alice said covering her eyes.
I rolled my eyes.
"Are y'all decent?" She asked.
"Yes." I said.
"Okay. Good!" Alice said before she uncovered her eyes. "So I brought y'all something since y'all are going to need it. No need to thank me. I wasn't spying either. I was just looking to see how the hunting had gone and I saw that y'all were going to need it. Anyway I'll be heading back now." Alice said before she handed Carlisle a backpack.
"Have fun!" Alice said with a smile before she left.
"What dis she bring?" I asked.
Carlisle opened the backpack and we saw that it was clothes for him.
I laughed. "I guess she probably saw when I ripped your shirt." I said.
Carlisle smiled.
I grabbed the backpack and threw it to the floor. "Now...where were we?" I asked.
Carlisle smiled and pressed me against the tree again. "I think I have an idea." He said before he kissed my lips.
I smiled and kissed him.
Okay guys I am going to leave it there :) so yes Esme and Carlisle ate now engaged. I'm probably going to fast.
What do you guys think? By the way I have a surprise for y'all in the next chapter.
Thank you for reading. Thank you for reviewing. Take care and until next time
