~Present Day, Forks~
We've moved again. I always hated that part, never being able to stay in one place for long and having to leave all the amazing people you'd met. That's why me and Chris stopped speaking to people, it was less upsetting to leave then. We had a choice every time we moved, we could either enrol in high school or get a job... since this town is really small and jobs are scarce we went with school.
It was our first day and so, being the dramatic people that we are... me and Lee decided to make a grand entrance. We arrived in the nicest car we have and strutted our way to reception whilst ignoring the stares from all of forks high school. That day was pretty boring but the clumsy humans were ok entertainment I suppose. One student in particular seemed to take an interest in us the most, Isabella Swan stared at us like she had seen a ghost... which I suppose isn't completely inaccurate as we are "undead" but still she's a strange one and we'll have to be careful around her.
We got home and did the same thing we always do, train, eat, train some more, watch old movies and reminisce on old times.
~Two months later~
Isabella had started trying to talk to us now... frankly she creeped me out, so me and Lee avoided her like the plague. She'd say things like "I know your secret" and "it wasn't a dream" and "you are real". We would just stare at her like she was out of her mind, which, to be fair I thought she was.
~4 months later~
Life had been pretty much the same the whole time we'd been here, although we kept running into an old friend who seemed quite interested with this place for some strange reason. We just kinda left her to do her thing although she did warn us about the wolves that roamed the forest. We had bumped into them a few times and strangely they didn't actually mind us being there, they said as long as we don't kill or turn anyone then we are welcome. They did ask us if we knew the Cullens though and Lee seemed to recognise the name but wasn't sure where he had heard it before.
Anyways, today was another boring day at school having Isabella try to befriend us and all the other kids watch us like we're freaks. When we arrived the atmosphere seemed different though and we couldn't tell why. We went to all of our classes as normal and it was at lunch that we realised why everything was different. There was another coven of vampires here and not only that but Jasper was one of them... I couldn't see Maria which was a good sign but regardless I reached out to Lee
"Jasper is here with loads of vamps, what do we do?" I said in my head and gave him a pointed look.
"We can go if you want, Scarly but it looks like he's a veggie now." His voice echoed in my head and I thought for a minute about his offer, although I noticed the bronze-haired vamp staring at us and became uncomfortable.
"Can we go please, Lee? I don't like this" and with that thought he grabbed my hand and led me out of the doors to our car.
I called Robbie at the first chance I got "Hi Robbie, ummm did you know that There's a new coven moved in?"
"Yes, Scarlett, I did. Why?"
"Because Jasper is with them and I'm kind of freaking out about it?"
"Oh ok, darling. Would you like me to call a meeting between covens, to make an agreement and see why they're here?"
"I don't really want to see him though."
"You wouldn't have to attend my dear."
"But what about Chris?"
"Myself and Charity could go to them if you'd feel better with Christopher with you?"
"Thanks Robbie."
"See you later, darling."
Lee rested his hand on my arm, "Are you okay?" I shook my head as tears that would never fall gathered in my eyes, " Oh, Scarly. It's Ok, I won't let him hurt you."
"It's not that, Lee. I don't know how I feel about seeing him after all these years... I mean what if he really has turned his life around? What do I do? I've spent so long running in fear that I don't know how I'd react if the threat is gone."
He opened his arms after pulling up in the garage and I climbed into them, Christopher was the only person who I ever allowed to see me like this... vulnerable and inconsolable. This has only happened a handful of times during our time together and he always hated seeing me like this. He'd envelope me in his arms as he knew it made me feel safe, like I knew my big brother was there to protect me no matter what.
