The Forgotten Guard

Chapter Fourteen

- Elizabeth's P.O.V. -

When I got back into the bedroom, Alec is reading a book and looks pissed. I walk over to the bed and sit down next to him. He doesn't look at me until I take the book away from him.

"Alec, what's wrong?" I ask. He looks into my eyes. "Nothing." He says rolling his eyes.

"Seriously? Do you think I'm stupid? We've been together for three-hundred years, I know when you're lying. Now tell me what happened?"

"I just had to tell a group of people, that I don't like, that I love you. You know that I don't like doing that. So that's why I'm pissed." Alec says, grabbing my face and looking into my eyes.

"I understand this, Alec. But sometimes we have to do things we don't like." I tell him as I take his hands off my face and grab his face with my own. I kiss him hard on the lips and he kisses back just as hard.

"I love you." I say against Alec's lips. "I love you too." He says back.

The next morning, I'm digging through my suitcase. "Why can't I find my favorite pants? I know I packed them. Alec, where are my pants?"

I stop digging and stand up. I walk around the room and still can't find my pants or Alec. Where the hell is Alec? Shit, I don't want to socialize with the Cullens just yet. It's too early in the morning for their 'humans are not food' speech.

"Today's going to be a long day. I can feel it. I can't find my pants or my mate." I sigh. I grab my sweatshirt and pull my hair in a messy bun. I sigh, grab my phone, and walk out of the room. I put my phone in my shorts and walk down the stairs.

As I step off the bottom step, Bella runs right into me. She falls back onto her butt.

"Seriously, watch where you're going." I tell her walk around her.

"Why are you so rude to me? What have I done to you?" She asks and I roll my eyes. I turn around and stare at her.

"Are you kidding me? You really just asked that question. Are you that stupid? Do you not understand that you being here and the things you know might kill you or the people around you? You are the one of the reasons that I will probably have to kill all of you."

"Why though? Why will you have to kill us?" She whines and gets off the floor. I roll my eyes. "Nevermind. You don't understand and you won't ever understand. So why don't you leave me alone while I'm here. Thanks." And with that I walk into the kitchen to find Alec sitting there talking to Carlisle.

"Are you serious right now? Are you serious? Where have you been Alec? I really needed you and you weren't around." I walk over to him and punch him on the arm. "I really hate you some days. By the way, do you know where my favorite jeans are?" I ask looking through the fridge. It's a habit because back at Volterra, we have bottles of blood in the fridge. I miss Volterra there's only three or four stupid people there.

"Did you look in the bathroom or under the bed?" He says pulling out a bottle of blood under the table and hands it to me. "Thank you. I didn't look there." I take a drink of blood. "Hold this. I'm going to go find my pants." I push the bottle into Alec's hands.

I hear laughing from another room and then, "that's a good one!" I roll my eyes, kiss Alec on the cheek, and run back up to the room. I quickly walk into the bathroom and look all over the place. No go on the bathroom. I walk over to the bed and fall to my knees. I crawl over to the edge, flip the sheets so I can see, and there they are. My favorite pants! I grab them and stand up. I pull my shorts off and put my pants on. I take my sweatshirt off and put on a different shirt. I keep the messy bun though.

I grab my phone from my shorts and run back down stairs. I walk into the kitchen, grab my bottle of blood, and walk into the living room. I sit down next to Alec and look at the TV. Baseball is on. The Royals and the Orioles, I guess it's an important or something.

I put my head on Alec's shoulder. "You found your pants, did you?" He asks. I jump up from the couch and do a little turn around for him. "I did! Thanks for the help!" I sit back down and kiss Alec on the cheek.

"So the werewolves are back." Emmett says.
