Chapter 10: Danger persists
Carmen
It was a normal Friday morning, no school thankfully due to yesterday's events. My family all went hunting for the day…well most of them, Renesmee and Jacob are heading to the bonfire on La Push beach, Jason and Laura are doing God knows what whilst Cathy and Seth are at Pizza De Casa for lunch. Cathy insisted on saying it wasn't a date but I wasn't too sure. I found out earlier that Seth and Cathy shared a kiss during the camping trip with the Masons so it wasn't entirely convincing that they have strong feelings for each other. I think everyone saw that but the only oblivious people were my parents which made Cathy sort of happy inside. I was bored in this house. Well firstly, Jason and Laura were in his room probably making out so I guess I wouldn't get friendship time with her either
Laura and I have grown very close ever since I was born and I can't really explain it but I feel this connection towards her, like she's more than just my friend or my cousin's girlfriend but I put it down to the fact she's always there. She reminded me a lot of my mother, not my adoptive mother but my biological mother. I never met her however I always she an image of her in my dreams. Her all in white, her white cloak, and her natural golden-blonde hair glistering in the sun, her beautiful hazel-blue eyes which change color almost everytime I meet with her. I always thought she was an Angel
She plays a good character in my life. In my dreams she'd always tell me how lucky I am to have this family and that I should never neglect them, telling me how perfect I am and how much she loved me. Everyday I'm so eager to sleep because that's the only time I get to see her. I always visit her grave, every Saturday I'd pick at least one fire lily and place it on her tombstone because according to my Uncle, that was her favorite flower. I never really get emotional when I'm there because I never really met her, but the thought of seeing her in personal was yearning inside of me but I knew all too well that'll never happen
After an hour of total boredom in my room, I decided I'd head downstairs and get something to nibble on. Unlike my cousins, I enjoy human food more than them, my favorite is any Pizza known to man accept mushroom because I'm surprisingly allergic to it. I opened the refrigerator and grabbed a slice of sandwich when I heard a groan coming from the living room
"Hey Danger D…What's up?" I hollered him as he sat on the living room carpet doing something I wasn't quite sure of. Danger D was one of the nicknames I gave him after he killed two Mountain Lions on a hunting trip with his bare hands out of frustration
"Oh nothing, just trying to figure out how to duplicate this" he said pointing at the cup his gaze was focused on. Diego has a gift by making duplicates of himself or a creature of whom he pleases, but that'll mean he'd have to put his complete focus on the object in order for it to succeed
"How is it looking up?" I asked making my way to him
"It's wigged out, I guess I can only duplicate living organisms" he sighed in frustration
"Hey that's a good thing, maybe you could duplicate me so my parents won't know where I am when I sneak out to a party" I joked and he chuckled
"I wouldn't be so confident because we have three mind-readers in the house and one of which is your Uncle" he said with a light snigger. I shrugged then my phone vibrated in my pocket and I took it out to see Brady's Caller ID
"Hello?" I said answering the phone
"Hey Car Bear, let's hang out today?" he asked
"Um…yeah sure" was all I said
"I'll be there in a few minutes bye" he told me before hanging up. I smiled slightly
"Should I be here when you guys like make out?" Diego joked. I punched his shoulder slightly and huffed. Diego is one of my best friends between the Cullens, simply because we get each other and we get along quite well. Diego has also aged to a hitch; he now looks physically 12-13 and growing fast
"So Diego, have you decided on heading to school next fall?" I asked
"I might, I haven't really decided yet" he said. I nodded understandingly. It would be cool to have Diego with Cathy and me. The door bell went off and I got up to answer it
"Hey" Brady said with a cute smile. Brady is a 16 year old sophomore in Forks High whom I met a year ago by my best friend Jamie Thompson because they're siblings. Since then Brady and I were close, despite our huge age difference, Brady and I are quite compatible. My parents still don't know about our relationship well I have a slight feeling my mother does but my father is completely oblivious. He bent down and pulled me into a hug
"Hi" I mumbled at his shoulder "Wanna come in, I just have to get ready okay?" I asked and he nodded. We walked into the living room to see Diego lounged on the couch watching a Basketball match that probably played yesterday Night
"Hey man" Brady said to Diego. Diego just nodded not taking his eyes off the screen
"I'll just get my purse" I told him and went up to my room. After I had the things I need, I went downstairs and muttered goodbye to Dee before heading out of the house with Brady
"So where are we going?" I asked as we approached a thousand oak trees in the forest I saw a blanket laid in the center of the forest with a basket and two Chinese bowls
"I thought we'd have a little picnic before I head to seasonal champions" he insisted as we sat on the mat. Brady was a Basketball player for Forks "And what's a picnic, without chocolate covered strawberries" he said picking one up and feeding one to me. We lay around in the sun all afternoon, soaking in its rays and each other's presence as we ate and touched and kissed, we chatted and laughed and just enjoyed each other's company
"Gosh it's so pretty here" I exclaimed in awe of this part of the forest. As the Mockingbirds chirp high among the trees
"Well you're beautiful" he said with his gorgeous smile and as his gray-hazel eye winked at me. I blushed red as he leaned in for a kiss
"She is pure beauty isn't she" we heard a deep musky voice from behind. He had a weird Danish/American accent. Both Brady and I spun around and I gasped at what I saw…

I know it was kind of short sorry for that but I promise the next chapter will have some more insight on the next chapter. Who is this mystery man might be?
What do you think of my Fanfiction so far? Should I carry on with it? Or should I ditch it?
