Lucy's P.O.V.
Mister Cullen had his nieces and nephews staying with him. There was a girl named Yazz who helped me tame my hair before bed, her boyfriend Seth who looked after me like a puppy, and the other two named Royal and Sophie kept to themselves. There was another bedroom that Seth said I could sleep in. "That's Jasper's room. He doesn't visit often. I thought you would be more comfortable in it." Carlisle explained to me after I was ready for bed. For dinner that night we had shrimp stir fry with noodles instead of rice. I also had chocolate milk.
Seth tucked me into bed and started telling me stories of a friend of his who made friends with the devil. "What happened to her?" I asked tiredly drifting off.
"She died, so did her sisters and most of her family. We are all that's left, us, Jasper and her in-laws. But she died a hero." he told me before changing the subject. I don't know to what since I fell asleep.
I felt safe in this bed. I didn't wake up from nightmares that night. In the morning I woke up and got ready to go home. I made the bed, brushed my teeth, got dressed, and had breakfast before Yazz and Seth took me home. Daddy was worried and waiting outside the house when we pulled up. As soon as the car stopped moving he had the door open and me out of the car. I couldn't help but laugh as my dad came out.
"Crowley you snake put her down and let me say hello to her." My dad sighed
"Never ssshe'sss mine, angel." Daddy hissed like a snake getting me to laugh more and try to remove his sunglasses. That was when he put me down he won't take them off when outside. I went to my dad and hugged him. I said goodbye to Yazz and Seth before going inside.
I spent the rest of the day with my dad working on my puzzle. Well, I worked on the puzzle and he quizzed me. With stuff I shouldn't know but I somehow did. "What does this mean? Este es mi hermano." I was asked and I thought about it for a while while working on my puzzle.
"This is my brother... I think. Dad, I'm an only child though why would I ever use that?" I asked when my daddy sat on the floor next to me not taking sides. Daddy always says he is on his own side when we fight. But I had to admit I was curious about Jasper.
That night I did have a nightmare. I was older probably around sixteen and was on horseback. A gunshot was heard and a name was being yelled out so I turned around. There was a house being burnt down and my other two scout leaders were there Pan was just getting up off the ground. Someone who looked rich was making a fuss over him as Hera attacked someone I couldn't see.
The scene then changed I was in a different bed when Pan and his older brother came to get me. We then got the rich girl who was fussing over him and broke Hera and her husband out of jail. I watched as Pan and his brother both got shot before getting back up. The scene then changed again.
I wasn't in a bed this time, I was on an unfamiliar couch but I feel like I should know it. That's when the door opened. Standing in the door was a man three years older than me if I had to guess. He had the same blonde waved curls as me, he was covered with scars and had red eyes that I think were green at one point. I was scared of him but dream me wasn't and tried to hug him that was when he bit dream me and I woke up screaming.
Both my dads came running into my room to make sure that I was okay. I had two birthmarks shaped like the crescent moon one on my neck and the other on the left side of my chest. Neither of my dads can explain them. I was crying at this point I couldn't understand what I just saw.
My dad lifted me up understanding what happened. "Do you want to sleep with Crowley tonight or me my little light bird?" he asked I forget that they aren't dating sometimes.
"Daddy." I said before being handed over to my daddy. The three of us went back to his room my dad made himself comfortable among all the plants my daddy had in his room.
"Angel if you are just going to spend the night among my plants, you might as well join us on the bed and help me sing her back to sleep. Also, get some sleep yourself." My daddy told him. My dad did listen. The three of us were now on daddy's bed with me between the two of them.
My dad waved his hand and music started to play. I have no idea what they were singing but I eventually fell asleep again. Sleeping through the rest of the night was easy with my dads. I do wish my daddy would ask my dad out sometimes though.
When I got up in the morning I got ready for school when there was a knock on the door. I found this odd since my dads didn't have any friends who would just show up. The other leaders from my scout group would call ahead if they were coming by and they had one British friend who would come by with his wife and daughter sometimes but again they always gave notice. I went to the kitchen to see my dads talking to an older man. I also noticed a cup of coffee sitting on the counter with my dad's name on it. Now call me crazy but something didn't sit right with me about the coffee as if I could smell something wrong with it. First, my dad never drinks coffee my daddy did but not my dad. Second, it smelled like almonds and mint and to me mint means danger. So I grabbed the cup of coffee and snuck to the bathroom to dump it out. That was easy since nobody noticed I was up yet.
"Keep it down or you'll wake Lucy and she can sleep for another half hour." I heard my dad scold the other two in the kitchen with him. I didn't turn the tap on until my daddy did to start making pancake batter for my breakfast. Once I had the coffee dealt with I went to the kitchen.
"Morning Dad, morning Daddy." I said walking into the kitchen while trying to control my hair. The older man looked at me as if I was a speck of dust. My dads wished me good morning before the older man realized that the coffee he brought my dad was missing. I got excited when my daddy placed pancakes shaped like flowers and stars in front of me with a fruit salad. I did pick around the kiwi and cherries though. My daddy started to pack my lunch as I ate breakfast. My dad was helping me with my hair he decided to put it up in a ponytail with two scrunchies that had wings one was white and the other black. My dads also made sure I had the necklace they gave me for my seventh birthday a chain with two pendants that look like feathers again one black and one white they did give me a purple iris pendant to add to it on my eighth birthday I just never did since I lost it.
"Ready to head to school my little bird?" My dad asked after I finished breakfast. I nodded and got up. Dad and I normally walk to school but today the older man joined us. He kept trying to convince my dad to leave Daddy and me. It wasn't working there was probably something in the coffee I poured out that would have made my dad agree.
"I'm not leaving Lucy and Crowley." My dad told the older man hugging me. The older man looked upset his plans didn't work but I stuck my tongue out at him. The older man was gone by the time my dad and I got to school. I had two friends at school one was named Catherine she was the daughter of one of the scout leaders but she wasn't in the group, she had light brown hair actually that had a slight wave to it and her eyes were a deep brown as well. My other friend moved here from Tennessee he had black curls, a dimpled smile, and blue eyes his name was Emerson. Emerson was trying to get me to join them in their laser tag team.
"Come on Lucy, we don't use our real names in laser tag and you can wear whatever want." He tried forgetting my dad was there until he spoke up.
"Have a good day you three." My dad said before leaving. The three of us then went inside. We sat in our usual seats in the class just minding our own business when someone started flinging things at my head. I then ended up with a bloody nose during gym class because one of the kids who didn't like me kicked a ball right in my face. Catherine did move and so did Emerson eventually. I did miss them.
Jasper's P.O.V.
I have been alone for too long. I know that Edward is hunting me. That's why I haven't seen any of my family that survived my disaster of a wedding day. I get the occasional text from a few friends of Nina's like Mazikeen, Lucifer and his brother the angel I forget his name since we never had a proper introduction, not his twin though thank heaven and god above for that. The last one from Lucifer was about six years ago being extremely cryptic he just said that my sister was safe. The one before that was nine years ago telling me that Nina was being born again but no word on Carmen or Peter. When I asked about them I got no answer. Maybe they didn't know.
I risked going to the woods to hunt. It has been a while since I have hunted. Unfortunately, before I could feed I came across an old man who lost his way in the woods. I offered to help him out of the woods. "Thank you young man have a drink with me I have been so lonely. My friends don't visit often and my wife recently left me." he told me but I could tell that he wasn't as he seemed. He led me to an arcade. I noticed that the man grew younger next to me, he had red hair and pulled a pair of sunglasses out of his coat. He put them on just as a kid came over.
"Hi Daddy, I'm going to tell Dad you left me here alone... Who is your friend?" The kid asked the man next to me. I did a double-take because the girl looked exactly like Nina when she was nine. Same blonde hair, same blue-green eyes, same tanned skin, She even had a crescent moon-shaped birthmark on her neck where one of Nina's scars was. She wore a white sweater, jeans and black running shoes. She didn't seem scared of me though.
"If I buy you food and more arcade credits will you not tell Angel?" the man next to me asked the girl as if he was trying to bribe her.
"Nope. Sorry, Daddy, a scout is honest. If Dad asked about tonight and I didn't tell him you left me alone I would be telling a lie." She explained and I smiled before deciding to get her more arcade credits myself. The man still got her food.
"Thanks, mister Daddy normally takes me here on Friday nights so he can sing karaoke but it depends on how well I do on spelling at school." The girl explained to me as she dragged me to a game. It was skeeball then she looked at me like she expected me to play.
"Do you want me to play with you?" I asked her and she nodded. She seemed to be studying me. Then something happened she said that her right hand wouldn't move. She started to lean to her left and I caught her just before she could hit the ground. I asked one of the employees where the karaoke was.
" There is a sign right outside the door you can't miss it but I'll show you I'm heading there any way to drop off some drinks that people ordered." The employee told me as I carefully carried the girl. When her pa saw me with her zoned out he grabbed his phone out of his pocket before using the speed dial. We didn't have to wait long before the person he was calling picked up.
"Hello Crowley, is something wrong? I normally don't get phone calls from you when you and Lucy are at karaoke." the man on the other end stated. So they don't talk while this man and the girl in my arms named Lucy were here.
"I know Angel but there was a problem. I know I have the car but do you think you could please pop over here? It's Lucy she is having a seizure I think. You would know." The man explained and I sat down making myself as comfortable for the child I was still holding. The fact that the child was so calm around me and I feel the same with her made me think that I found Nina.
"I'll be there in a few seconds Crowley." The man on the other end replied before hanging up. Then I heard the front door of the building open. There was some talking coming from the front desk the same voice as the phone asking for directions like I did. Thankfully Lucy seemed to be coming around. That was when a man in a tan suit, a tartan bowtie, and a light blue shirt arrived. He also had hair so light it almost looked white. His blue eyes were full of worry for the girl stirring in my arms and on my lap.
"I don't know what happened one moment she was playing skeeball and the next, she said her right hand wouldn't move while leaning to her left." I explained to the blue-eyed man. The one who brought me here was singing some sappy love song. I then decided if I was going to mess things up for this young girl I should stay away. I had a new identity ready.
I handed the girl to her dad and left. I then sent a text to Rory. From that day on Jasper Whitlock was dead he died in a cabin in the woods that caught fire. I have been taking that stuff that slowly made us like how Nina was over the past few years. The side effect of being like Nina the way I became like that was my eyes could reveal my true nature, so I needed to eat food right after I drank blood. Anyway, I got off the subject from that day on I was going by Axel Rathbone-Ledger. This was because I remembered there was one time Nina said I looked like two actors one was just starting out named Jackson Rathbone and the other one died young he was named Heath Ledger. And Axel just sounded cool. But Nina did say one of her favourite characters in one of the games she played was named Axel. I went to meet Rory who handed me a bag with hair dye and my new identity.
"I hope you like black hair. I thought it would match your green eyes." She joked her emotions were giving me a hint of mischief as if there was something that I didn't know. I don't think I'll find it out for a while. I then got my ass out of Texas.
I went to a small town in New Zealand, I got a house and a job as a music teacher that wasn't a band the school didn't have one. Instead of violins and cellos, we had guitars and bass guitars. An entire amp system with mics as well. The kids only had to work together on one song every other project was an individual or small group project. But I never forced kids to do a song they didn't like or play an instrument they did not enjoy. But they had the most fun on Fridays when we would jam out for about 10 minutes sometimes longer sometimes shorter. After that, I opened the floor to my class and if anyone wanted to do anything they could as long as it was appropriate for school.
