Ch.9

At lunch I went to visit the group of vampires and decided to bring Teddy along with me. This morning was a shock all on its own. I was woken by Teddy who said that Esme had made us breakfast. While we were eating and everyone else was getting ready for school, Edward had decided to put an effort and sit with us. He played with Teddy and actually tried to strike up a conversation about sports where I brought up Quidditch and explained the rules. The minute I brought up the fact that we rode by broom, he tensed and told me he had to leave in order to calm himself. Teddy sat confused and I just laughed.

"Harry's here!" Jasper called.

"And he brought Teddy!" Emmett added.

The rest laughed. I pulled up a chair beside Bella like last time and Rosalie plucked Teddy out of my arms. He laughed and I grunted.

"Oh relax," She assured.

I rolled my eyes.

"So Harry.." Started Alice. "I heard you and Edward talking about sports this morning. What kind?"

This should be good, I thought. Bella looked and me and smiled in approval. Edward paled even more.

"Ah yes, wizarding sports. We were talking about Quidditch. Basically it's a cross between muggle soccer and football. The goal is to score with as many points as you can by throwing or kicking a ball into one of three hoops, with a club, by the Beaters and Chasers. although you have to watch out for bludgers. Balls charmed to chase and hit you. But the most important are the Seekers. The look for a tiny golden ball with wings called the Golden Snitch. It's really fast. A seeker has to chase the Snitch. The team who catches it wins the game. I was Griffindor's seeker since my first year. The youngest in a century to be so. We ride by broom. I had the fastest broom made. The Firebolt. It's actually proven to be faster then a vampire and a shapeshifter combined."

"Damn..." Emmett whispers.

"Sounds like fun," Jasper comments.

"It is."

"Do you still play?" Asked Bella.

"No. I have no time."

"Bummer.." Emmett mopes.

"Did you bring the broom though?" Edward asked.

"I lost it during the Battle of Hogwarts. I miss that thing."

.....

The bell for end lunch rang and we all sighed. We all sighed. I received a hug from Alice, Bella, and Emmett. A clap on the back from Jasper. I was smiled at by Rosalie after she thanked me for letting her play with Teddy who ended up sleeping on her. Edward and I nodded toward each other. I left and as I walked out I saw a gorgeous woman walking in my direction. She was young and tall in a brown short jacket and black tank. Black booty shorts brown panty hoes and black heel boots.

"Hello. Can I help you?"

"Oh no thanks. I'll be transferring here next year and thought I'd take a look around."

She looked to old for school. In her early twenties. She was a pale thing with funny green eyes and flaming red curls. Something about her looked incredibly familiar. I couldn't place it.

"I'm sorry, is this as a student or a teacher?"

"Teacher."

"What do you plan on teaching?"

"Theater."

"Ah... How nice."

"Yeah." She said with a pearly laugh.

"How old is your son?"

Laughing I looked at Teddy who was shying away from the woman.

"I'm actually his god-father. He lost his parents in an accident only three weeks old."

She frowned and then smiled in sympathy.

"Well, you seem to be doing good with him."

"Thanks."

There was something... Oh so something that didn't feel right.

She stuck out her hand.

"My name is Victoria. You?"

Oh my god. It's her! I have to lie and find a way out. Then, I have call one of them and tell them.

"Henry... Henry Portfield. And this is Edward Lumin."

Teddy's name wasn't truly lie. This real name is Edward. Edward Remus Lupin. Why he was nicknamed Teddy.. I still don't know why. I tickled my hand into the air without her seeing and I heard my car alarm go off.

"Shit! That's my car. I'm sorry. It was a pleasure to meet you Victoria. I have to go."

With that I left her standing and ran out to my car. I got in and drove it away.

I pulled out my cell phone as I drive.

"Come on..."

"Why are you calling? I'm in class you idiot."

"I'm sorry but it's an emergency.."

"Mr. Cullen what are you doing?"

"I'm sorry sir but I need to take this. It's a family matter."

I heard Edward walking out of the classroom and into the hallway.

"What?"

"I saw her!"

"Who?"

"Victoria!! She was walking around the building and I happen to talk to her. I didn't know until she told me her name."

"Are you sure?"

"YES I'M FUCKING SURE! She was tall, pale, with puffy red curls. She must have been wearing contacts. Her eyes were green but it was an odd green. Not the kind a human carries."

"What did she say?"

"She was surveying the school because she's working there next year as a theater teacher. That's what she said."

"What do we do."

"Obviously she was scouting you all out. Or Bella. She wasn't dressed to fight. I'd just advise you to be careful and stick to Bella at all times."

"I'll text the others."

"Thank you."

"Your welcome."

"Be careful... I don't want any of you hurt."

"...We will."

I hung up then and sighed.
