Klaire's POV:
Oh God, my heart rate was accelerating through the roof right now! His family was here after what he just said about his cousin, Riley. Was he here? What would they think of me? The oldest vampires in the world are about to see me! I wanted to run and hide under my bed and stay there until they left!
Jasper noticed my uneasiness and came over to me while we stood in the kitchen. "Hey, it's okay. If Riley is here I won't let anything happen to you." He says and rubs circles on my back. I try and give him my best smile and hear someone knock on the door.
This isn't how I thought the day would've went!
Jasper walks over the the front door and I see a women crash into him. "Jasper, my nephew! How are you honey? I'm sure you're feeling better? We're so glad that you're back, truly back! You must be so depressed! Are you?" She immediately bombarded him with questions and I see that he smiled at how with a hint of sadness.
"I'm fine, thank you Aunt Margret." He says and kisses her cheek before a man walks in then. "Uncle Samuel," Jasper greeted and they shared a man hug, or whatever you call it. A women then walked in then and I saw her face was emotionless, did she not have her humanity on? She already scared me. A guy then walked in then, much like the women, he was down right scary too.
I wasn't one to judge a book by its cover, but those two both held nothing but destruction in their eyes. The women had light brown hair with bangs across her forehead. She was quite tall and skinny, he eyes were a dark brown. The man had black hair, long and almost resting on his shoulders. His eyes were a green colour and he was quite built.
"Who's this?" The women called Margret asked and walked over to me and grabbed my hands in her cold ones. "You're a lovely human, my name is Margret."
"Uh- I'm Klaire." I say awkwardly as everyone looked at me. "It's nice to meet you." I mumble, trying to cut the tension. Why must I be socially awkward?
Margret smiled and brought me into a hug, but it didn't once decrease my nerves. "No need to feel nervous, love. This is my husband Samuel, he's Jasper's fathers brother." She said and pointed to the older looking man, "my sons daughter, Amelia, and my son, Riley."
My heart skipped a beat when she said that that was Riley. Fuck! I smile very, very nervously and look down then, I didn't want to be here at all!
"Jasper, you mind making us coffee?" Samuel asked. Jasper nodded and I begged him in my head for me to take him with me. "Klaire, if it's alright with you, can we talk with you?" Samuel then asked and I wanted to throw up.
Jasper looks at me and I smile and nod forcefully. They all began to walk to the living room just beside the balcony I went out and spoke with Xavier for the first time.
They sat down on the chairs and I awkwardly sat down next to Margret, feeling more comfortable around her then anyone else.
"How's Jasper?" Samuel asked quietly and I swallowed the thickness in my throat. Only then do I look over at Riley who had his jaw clenched. "We know his emotions are on now, so how's he coping?"
