Run Away (Twilight/ F&F crossover)

Chapter Sixteen

Nobody thought Daria would wake up about the time dinner had finished cooking. Harry and Seth had arrived about fifteen minutes earlier, which resulted in Seth taking Nymphadora to play with her. Seth loved the baby, which was ironic, seeing as most teenage boys weren't very fond of babies, especially younger teenage boys. Though Sam knew Seth was careful with Nymphadora, he kept a watchful eye on the boy and the baby.

"What are you doing up? I thought you'd be asleep for at least another hour." Sue commented, when she seen Daria enter the room.

"Guess my body didn't want to sleep anymore; separation anxiety from Dora I'm thinking." Daria replied, as Sue simply smiled.

"Well, dinner will be done in a moment. I decided to make a casserole, I hope you like them." Sue said, and Daria smiled lightly.

"I like any home cooked meals. I haven't had many since I left home." Daria answered, as she sat down next to Sam.

When she sat down, Sam caught a small whiff of her scent, and he had to hold himself back from pulling the girl closer to him. The more he seen her, the more he could smell her, the more he could be near her, made him want to touch her, hold her in any way possible. He hadn't even felt this way when him and Leah had first started dating.

"Seth! Dinner's ready! Bring Dora, she needs her medicine!" Sue exclaimed, as she pulled the casserole out of the oven.

Moments later, Seth came into the room with Nymphadora in his arms. The baby was smiling slightly, as she held fistfuls of Seth's shirt. As soon as she looked over and seen her mother though, she began to whine.

"Oh, you fussy baby. What's the matter?" Daria cooed, as she walked over to Seth and grabbed her daughter.

Sue handed Daria the medicine dropper, and Daria smiled thankfully. She placed the dropper into Nymphadora's mouth and gave her the medicine, before tossing the dropper into the sink. Daria sat back down next to Sam with Nymphadora in her lap. Sue fixed Daria a plate, before placing it down in front of the young mother. As Daria began to eat with everyone else, Nymphadora opened her mouth for a bite of her mother's food.

"Want some?" Daria asked, and Nymphadora nodded.

Once again, Nymphadora opened her mouth for a bite of her mother's food, this time the woman picked up a very small bite and placed it in her daughter's mouth. Luckily Nymphadora was able to eat it, seeing as she had began to eat some foods and was soon going to have her two front teeth very prominent in her mouth.

The mother and daughter shared the plate, as everyone around the table watched them. Sam couldn't explain the feeling in his stomach while watching the mother and daughter, but Sue could tell just how much admiration the boy had for the duo. She smiled slightly, having no bitter feelings towards any of them, even though she could tell that Daria was the reason Sam broke up with Leah.

"Darling, what did you do before you moved here?" Seth asked, causing the girl to look away for a moment.

She had never talked about her family freely, but she had began to trust the Clearwater family. Sam knew a little, but he didn't know much. She wasn't going to tell them everything either, in fear that they'd change their opinion on her, or contact her family to let them finally know where she was.

"You don't have to talk about it, if you don't want to." Sue commented, but Daria simply shook her head.

"No, it's fine," She answered the older woman, before looking over at the young boy,"Well, when I left home I was still in high school, but I was soon going to graduate. When I wasn't at school though, I was normally either working on cars with my dad, learning how to race with my uncles, or cooking with my aunt. I was close to being a professional racer when I left, at least, that's what my family kept telling me." Daria said, as she smiled slightly.

"What was your family like?" Sue asked, this time intrigued by Daria's story.

"Well, my whole family raced, or at least knew how to race. My dad was the best racer I knew, and my mom was a close second. My dad and I were closer than my mom and I. My mom and I argued a bit more, but I still loved her with all my heart. My aunt, she was so amazing. She always gave me more freedom than my parents did, which got her in trouble sometimes. I had quite a few uncles, but they were all special in their own way to me. Brian, he taught me how to race the most, even against my dad's wishes sometimes. Tej, he taught me a bit about computers and such. Roman, he was just a big child, so we played pranks and joked around a lot. Han, a lot happened with him. I mean, he's amazing. He taught me how to drift like a pro, just like him, but it's been tough for a while. We've been through a lot of stuff, but we're family. I don't want to go into detail, especially since I left them and it's hard to talk about them, but I do truly miss them." Daria stated, as everyone finished eating.

"I made banana pudding cake for dessert, since Sam said you didn't like chocolate much." Sue commented, changing the subject as she pulled out the cake.

As she began to plate the cake for everyone, Nymphadora became excited. She squealed and tried to grab her mother's cake as soon as it was sat in front of them.

"No, you can have a bite, but you're not picking up the cake, Dora." Daria said, causing the baby to pout, but take a bite of the cake anyhow.

"Why don't you talk to them anymore? Your family?" Seth asked, making the table go silent.

Sue glared at her son, as Daria smiled sadly.

"I just can't. I left them, and I don't think they'll ever forgive me." Daria answered, as she looked up at the boy.

Seth felt bad for asking, but he was just curious. He didn't know why Daria couldn't talk to her family. He never left his family before, so he didn't understand. He knew not to ask anymore questions though, in fear of upsetting his mother and Daria anymore than he already had...
