Chapter 9: How is this possible?

Maria P.O.V

I woke up in the middle of the night when I heard the front door slam closed. "Celeste" I shake him awake." I think someone is in the house." I whisper shout at him. "Can't I have one night of sleep." He mumbles before going downstairs.

I followed after him when I heard him mutter a ton of profanity. "What's-. Oh my god! What the hell happened?!" There were cooking ingredients everywhere, from what I could see the living room was a disaster, the door was almost off its hinges and Celeste, Demetri, and Markie were all yelling trying to figure out what happened.

It's official, me and Michael are the only sane ones. "Boys." I say hoping they'll stop bickering. Nothing. "Boys." I say louder. Nothing.

"GIRLS YOUR ALL PRETTY NOW CALM THE HELL DOWN!" I scream, which finally gets their attention. "Now, you three yelling isn't going to solve anything. Besides, whoever it was left a note on the counter."

'I told you to give her back.'

Was all the note said. There was no signature but it was pretty obvious who was here.

"So, that lodge. No one knows about it?" I ask. Demetri smirks and then says "nope. I'll go pack."

The car was loaded up with everything in the house that we didn't want destroyed.

Now the question was: do we take Kasey, or leave her the house?

We decided to bring her with us just for the sake of not having to kill her. She surprised me by not being mad that we had kept her isolated from everyone. "I though you would have just killed me." She told us.

The drive to the lodge was very long. Even after I fell asleep for the third time we were still hours away.

I faintly noticed that someone was carrying me. Not once did I acknowledge them, not even when I hit a soft bed. It was when he started to leave that I said something. "Where are you going Celeste?"

He sighed. "How'd you know it was me?"

"I could smell you."

He didn't say anything, he just crawled in bed next to me.

Within seconds we were both fast asleep.

"Come on wake up you two!!" Markie yelled. I rolled over and buried my face in Celeste' chest and mumbled "make him go away."

Celeste went to get up but I pulled him back down with strength I didn't know I had. Before he could try and move again I pinned him down and kissed him. "Uh well I'll just leave you guys alone then..." Markie murmured as he left.

"You didn't think I would let you leave the bed without giving me a morning kiss did you?" I smirked at him. He bit his bottom lip and then pulled me to him and held me. I couldn't help it, I unconsciously snuggled up to him. He picked me up bridal style and carried ne into the kitchen. "What do you want for breakfast?"

"What can you cook?"

"Anything for you."

"Well then I want chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate mousse cake, a bowl of fruit, freshly squeezed orange juice, bacon, sausage, and eggs." By then everyone else had entered the room. "Okay so cereal?" He asked. I glared at him. "You said anything." I pouted. "Besides, I'm the pregnant one, I need food." He couldn't argue with my there. He began fixing the food and he kept asking ne why I just stared at him. "Because I like watching you."

"You sound like a stalker."

"It's not stalking if we live together."

"Good point. Here's your twenty million dish breakfast."

The rest of the day was pretty boring. All we did was unpack everything. I think the only interesting thing that happened was when Michael and Markie threw books at each other.

I've been up for the past four hours organizing the library. You never really know how many books you have until you start putting them away. "Need any help?"

"Yeah you can put all the books up while I watch.

"I'm not your worker monkey Maria."

"Last I checked you did work for me."

''Yeah but now I only work when people are around."

"Says who?"

"Me." He can be annoying sometimes.

"Fine. But your still putting the books up."

I'm glad he decided to help out, I felt drained of any energy I had before. It was getting to where I felt very light headed. The room was spinning and I couldn't see straight.

"Maria?" I could faintly hear someone calling me. Their voice started becoming urgent and I could sense they were scared.

By now I could hear multiple voices but I couldn't make out what was being said. I was no longer in control of my actions, I sort of remember throwing up and then the room became clearer. I could hear everyone's heart beating, and I could smell their blood.

Maybe I had waited to long to feed and my instincts were trying to take over. I could feel my canines growing longer and sharper.

Attack.

Kill.

Feed.

No.

Attack.

No.

No.

No.

I will not hurt my family. I knew what would happen if my instincts took over. I started taking deep breaths. Maybe I could just blackout.

But...how?

I don't know what I did but all I saw was darkness.

I woke up with a terrible headache. I sat up slowly only to realize that hurt worse than lying down. "Ow"

"Maria your awake!" Celeste screamed. I winced at his loudness which made him apologize about twenty times.

"Come here.". He came up to me and laid his head on my lap. I played with his hair for a while until he fell asleep. He acted like a cat sometimes, which just added to his cuteness.

I got up after laying Celeste down in the bed. I went to our full length mirror and about passed out. How was I already showing a baby bump? I couldn't have been that pregnant.

I went to find Demetri but I ended up running into him because he was coming to me.

We ended up going to the hospital where they told me I was four months pregnant. Wow time passes by quick.

"Celeste..."

He stirred in his sleep a little. I called him again. This time he rolled over grabbed me and pulled me onto the bed with him.

"I need to tell you something about the baby." This got his attention. "Are we having a girl?!" We had talked before about whether or not we wanted a boy or girl. He wanted a girl.

"Well....yeah but-"

"We need to go buy stuff now then!"

"Wait. I'm not-" he wasn't even paying attention anymore. He was talking about all the stuff we needed. Sigh. Now or never. "We're having twins." He stopped and I swear I'm not exaggerating when I say he fainted from shock.

!! Yay twins! Not a very eventful chapter. The next few will most likely be leading up to the big plot. But, I wanted to know how everyone was enjoying the story so far? Do you love it? Do wish some things were different? Let me know! !!
