15. Reaction ~
I sat down in Helen's living room, on a couch. I thought it was time that I should have left and went on home, to think things over. As I got up, I spoke to Helen and told her that it was my time to go home. Claire was my everything. Claire is my everything. I will watch out for her. I am her angel.
I walked out the side door connected to their garage, and opened the gates. I had ran home. Half-way there, Claire & Serena popped up in my head. I had made a commitment to Claire.. Seeing as I would be anything for her, not matter what. Serena, was a very nice young girl, very gentle. Yet not very interesting to me that much anymore. I had promised myself that day that I would tell her that it was over tomorrow.
About 30-40 more metres away, and I'd be home. I could sense it. I decided not to get home at that time, and went to Sam & Emily's place. I turned around and started to walk away slowly, and walked into the forest. I could tell something was following me, I wasn't sure about what that thing was. I could have sworn it was the misleading figure that we almost approached while protecting the reserve, but it could have been anything else. After about five minutes, the breeze that had been blowing west turned to breeze south, which was hitting me straight in the back. Suddenly, there it was; the figure. I needed back up since I needed to get it out of here. Then, Jared, Paul & Embry were already here. We all split up to chase one thing down. It was a bit fast for us, but we caught up after a few seconds.
"Woah, can you even tell what the heck that is?" Embry called. "I think it is a vampire, man!" Jared exclaimed. After hearing 'vampire' it made me think of what happened before, Victoria. But that couldn't be her. She turned into nothing at all. Useless ash, dust. The only vampires I knew that were around are the Cullens. Was there somebody else? That could not be.
16. Run ~
The figure stopped for half a minute, then turned to us. We all stopped and stared closely at the figure. The figure was dark, and had middle-height. It was a bit far to see itself clearly, but we could tell it was a Vampire. "RUN AFTER IT YOU GUYS!" Paul yelled. The vampire's face became clear, it was a man. The reaction on his face was very tempting. It looked like he was going to attack one of us or something. All he did was run off with a large grin on his face.
"Crap. He got away." Jared sighed. "Well, at least we now know what he looks like." I said. "Let's go tell Sam what happened, I'm sure he'll be able to know our thoughts on what happened." Paul said as he started to walk away.
All four of us were on our way to Sam and Emily's place. Jacob caught my eye and came towards us. "Hey Quil, what happened? Something gone wrong?" Jacob questioned. "Err, yeah.." I sighed. "Some vampire is back. That figure we saw last time was no ghost." "Oh really?" Jacob asked. "Yeah, he made a run for it!" Embry exclaimed. He wasn't too happy about this. Sam & Emily came out and joined our conversation. "So what's this I hear?" Sam said as his arm was around Emily's waist. "Stupid vampire's back." Paul said. "All we know is that it's a man, and that for a fact he is a bit tall, and had long hair." Jared said. "You think we should tell the Cullens?" Jacob asked. "Well, we'll have to wait first, if anything happens again we're going to have to tell them." Sam explained.
17. Feelings ~
No word could ever describe how Serena feels when she's around me. If anyone could ask me about how I feel about her in one word. I'd say uninterested. I do know that I don't like her. But anyways I was about to tell her it was over between us over the phone. I did not feel like talking to her in person because, if I did, then she would have questioned me, and maybe she would have begged. But she didn't. I was shocked. I dialed her number and awaited for an answer.
"Hello?" Serena asked. "Hey Serena, it's Quil." "Oh hey Quil, did something happen?" I was moments away from letting those hurting words coming out of my very own mouth. "No.. I just wanted to tell you something." "Well, what is it?" I took a deep breath and said the last thing I ever would want to say to her. "I'm sorry Serena. It's over.." Next thing I knew she said something that confused me: "Oh, it's okay then; didn't hurt. Can I tell you something?" I scratched my head and said: "Yeah, sure. Anything." "Well, don't tell Seth but I like him." Serena said. I could tell she smiled when she said that. I froze. Back to the conversation, I continued: "That's nice.. I guess. Did you want me to tell him?" She hesitated and replied: "Well, not sure.. I don't think he likes me at all. He knows me, but not too well." I stared at the floor in silence. "So I guess I won't then." "Alright then. Bye Qu--" I hung up and cut her off. I was a bit disapointed at how she liked Seth, and not me. I was a bit jealous. But I had Claire to worry about now, not Serena.
I got to Seth & Leah's place to hang out; for sure I wasn't going to tell Seth was Serena had told me. I knocked at their door and Leah opened it with a bitter look on her face: "Umm, hey Quil; C'mon in." "Thanks Leah." I said as I walked in. "So where's Seth?" I asked. She rolled her eyes at looked at the stairs: "Up there, go look for yourself." I rolled my eyes and went on upstairs to Seth's room.
