I sat down on the hospital- bench in Carlisle´s office, just as my stomach cooped loudly. Carlisle smiled, as he got the things he needed from the lockers in the room.

"Let me guess…" he began. "Alice and Rose forgot you´re human, and forgot to take a break for you to eat earlier."

"Something like that." I lifted up my feet, Esme said something to Esme, too fast for me to hear what he was saying. I started pulling off my socks, it hurt, I bit my lip not to groan. At last, I realized that I had wounds on both of my heals. It didn´t look too bad now when I had gotten of the socks. Carlisle took them and threw them in a bowl at his desk.

"So, Jamie…. Your birthday is soon isn´t it?"

"January the fifteenth." I said. "But I don´t want anybody to make a big deal of it!"

"Yeah, good luck with that with Alice in the house." Carlisle chuckled. "Anything special you wish for?"

"Is there anything that could prevent me from getting blisters while I´m skating?"

"Actually, I think there is special kind of socks that could I think. Is there anything else?"

"Seriously Carlisle, you gave me all I wanted for Christmas. The only thing I could wish for is… OW." I couldn´t help myself from groan when Carlisle started cleaning the blisters.

"Sorry… is what?"

"Okay, this is gonna sound weird, but… I want a gravestone." Carlisle looked at me, kind of with the reaction I thought I´d get. "Said so. Not for myself, I´m not gonna kill myself or something, but Jordan´s gravestone is the ugliest thing, I have ever seen." Carlisle nodded, and put plasters over the cleaned blisters. Then he took my socks, and the things he had used to clean the blisters and laid it all in a bowl, before setting it on fire. I didn´t move, I stared into the flames until it had burned out. Then I walked out of Carlisle´s office, Esme was making food for me, it wasn´t ready yet so I walked downstairs and to my room for waiting. In my room Alice and Rosalie had left all the bags with clothes we had gotten today. I started with pulling up a pair of new socks from one of the bags, and put them on.

I started with pulling off all the price tags off all the clothes, then I just threw them on the bed, and folded the bags, one after one. When all the bags laid on my desk and all the clothes, with all the price tags in the bin under it, and all the clothes unfolded on my bed. I folded everything and laid it in the wardrobe. Just as I was done, Esme called for dinner, and I walked back upstairs.

New year´s eve, almost midnight

I was back in the window seal outside the kitchen. Esme and Carlisle was outside, and at last, five minutes before midnight, I decided to get down from the window seal and outside. Carlisle was fixing with a big box of fireworks that somehow would show off all at the same time. Esme showed me to stand back, next to her, as the minutes passed by.

Four minutes

I pulled my coat closer around me

Three minutes

Oh great, the cold gave me a panic attack

Two minutes

I jumped up and down, trying to get some warmth in my muscles

One minute

The last minute of 2017

Midnight

Ding dong. We heard far away from the church in Bangor, then Carlisle light up all the fireworks in the box.

I had never been a great fan of firework, I held my fingers in my ears as I watched all the colors in the night black sky. I´d have to admit, it was beautiful, I just didn´t like the sound. And less than a minute later, it was over. Even though we still heard the fireworks from the rest of Bangor.

"I´m going in now." I said, and without waiting for answers, I turned around and opened the door. I walked to my room, changed my jeans and shirt to sweat pants and a hoodie, then I walked over to the family room where there was a fire in the fireplace. I pulled a blanket around me and sat down In front of it, I was still freezing, and I was trying to regain some warmth in my body. Trying to stop the shivering.

I heard the others came downstairs behind me, they said something, again too fast for me to hear what, Carlisle came to sit down next to me.

"I would love to do something to make you feel warmer. Hold you, but I´m afraid I´d only make it worse. Esme´s upstairs making hot chocolate." I nodded, and crouched even more. When Esme came down with the hot chocolate, I laid the blanket next to me, and took small sips from the cup. It was good to feel the warmth spreading, all the way out to my fingertips.

January the eight, school started again, my first lesson was English with Mr. Trey.

"So, students, I hope you´ve had good holidays, but now it´s time to start again. During this term, I´m giving you a essay to write during these months. And that one is to write each poem."

"WHAT?" Came from Cody Gardner. (a football player, the most boyish boy in school) "Trey, I´m a guy, guy´s don´t write poems." There was assent mumbles and nods from the rest of the classroom.

"Mr. Trey, is there any chance you´ve seen ten things I hate about you during the holidays." Jada Carlyle (A/N yes, I´m very aware of which name I gave her. It´ll suit a storyline)

"Mr. Trey if you please. And yes, my twelve year old forced me to watch it with her. And as well, to you Mr. Gardner, I actually think that some of the time´s most successful poets are or were males. Now, to what I was gonna say, whatever you wanna write your poem about, is up to you. It won´t have to rhyme, and I won´t give you any lessons to write it. The dead- line for it is midnight between Sunday, June the third, and Monday June the fourth. Everybody will hand in their poem, but keep a copy yourself, because you´re reading it out loud in class." The protests were wild, I was nervous already now. I had never written anything, or nothing good at least.

"So…" Mr. Trey began. "Over to the next assignment."

When Carlisle came home from work that day, I was laying on my stomach in the sofa watching one of the glee- DVD:s I had gotten for Christmas. I didn´t react until he threw me something. At a closer look, I saw that they looked like socks. Only they had only half feet, when I looked at the tag I realized it was the kind of "socks" people used to prevent blisters while skating. I raised myself on my elbows and looked at Carlisle.

"My birthday isn´t until next week!" I said.

"I know, but I realize you´re getting crazy about not being able to skate because of those blisters, so I thought I´d bring you those now."

"Yeah, yeah you´re right. Thanks." I laid down flat on my stomach again and kept on watching glee."

"You´re gonna try them out?" Carlisle asked, I raised on my elbows again, and nodded.

"Yeah, yeah of course, not now." As on a given signal I yawned big. "I´m a bit tired." Carlisle looked worried. "I´m fine, just tired. First day at school after holidays you know."

"Well… I´ll be at my office, come there if you feel worse all right?" I nodded, and then kept on watching glee. And as I was singing along, I noticed that my voice sounded a bit more hoarse than usual. But as I cleared my throat, it was gone again, and I didn´t think more about it.

HEEEEEELP. I need more tips on what the Cullens will give Jamie for her birthday, I´ve decided some! But any suggestion is still welcome, write it in a review, or a PM and send it pleeeeease.
