Goodbye For Now (Twilight Fan Fic)

Saying Goodbye

"Ella!" Came a call from deep in the woods, and Ella called back to them.

The sound of four running pairs of feet met my ears, and I have the urge to run away. Ella saw this and grabbed my arm to stop me.

Three men and one girl came into view. The girl looked exactly like Ella, except for the hair, and the boys all looked different. One had dark blonde hair that looked almost baige, another had almost black hair and the last one had the same colour hair as the other girl, who daek mahogany hair.

"Who's this?" The blonde one asked, eyeing me.

"This is Edward," Ella grinned. "Edward this is my older brother Darren," She pointed to the blonde, "My older brother Tristan," She pointed to the dark haired boy, "My older brother David, but we call him D," She pointed to the brown haired one, "And my twin sister Mary."

"Hi," I murmured.

Darren stepped forward and looked straight into my eyes. "You're the first suicidal vampire I've ever met," He comments.

In his mind I see his talent is seeing people's emotions, but he has to make eye contact. "Probably," I agree. "Your talent is kind of restricted if you don't mind me saying. My brother Jasper can feel people's emotions and project them."

Tristan raises his eyebrows, "You can see talents?"

"No," I say, shaking my head. "I can read minds."

They all smile at me then, which is honestly quite creepy. "Welcome to the family," D smiles.

"I can come with you?" I ask skeptically.

"Of course!" Mary smiles. "You're just as weird as us. Besides, its about time Ella made a friend."

"Shut up," Ella glares at her sister. "But she is right, we would love for you to join us."

I shift slightly. "I don't really want them to think I'm dead."

They nod, understanding. "Go say goodbye," Ella encourages. "We'll be here."

I sprint back to the house. God this will be hard. Saying goodbye... What if if can't do it?

I jump into my room through the window to find Carlisle and Esme in there. In shock I actually fall backwards out the window, landing flat on my back. It knocks the wind out of me, but I get back up and jump back into my room.

The moment my feet touch the ground I'm engulfed into a hug by my mother. "Thank God you're alright," She murmurs.

I pull out of the embrace and look at Carlisle. He studies me carefully.

"Carlisle..." I begin. I can't find the right words so I might as well say it. "I'm leaving."

Shock becomes his dominant emotion, and suddenly my siblings are crowding the doorway. "What?" Emmett hisses.

Running a hand through my hair I look at Esme. She smiles at me, telling me she will let me go if I'm sure. I nod, and she pulls me into another hug. "Good luck sweetheart," She whispers.

"Thanks mum," I bury my face in her shoulder.

Letting her go, I rush around my room at vampire speed to put all my valuables in one small rucksack. When I'm finished Carlisle pulls me into a hug and says, "Be safe."

"Will do, dad," I grin slightly, and Carlisle smiles back at me.

"I'll miss you brother," Jasper grins, and shakes my hand.

"Yeah, me too," Emmett mumbles, shaking my hand. He was never one for affection.

Suddenly Rosalie is hugging me. I hug her back gingerly, and when I let go of her she doesn't let go of me. "I'll miss you, Edward. And I'm sorry for everything."

Finally she lets go, and runs to Emmett, already dry sobbing.

Wow.

I turn to Alice, and she looks like she would be crying if she could. I hold my arms out, and she runs into then, dry sobbing.

"I can't believe you're actually leaving," She cries.

I smile sadly. Alice has always been my favourite sibling, and from her mind I know I'm her favourite too. "It'll be alright, Ali," I whisper. "Just keep them safe for me."

We let go of each other, and the moment we look at each other we're hugging again. "I'll miss you," We both murmur at the same time, causing everyone else to smile.

When we let go of each other Alice runs to Jasper, and he holds her tight in his arms. "Bye," I choke out one last time before jumping out the window.
