Once Upon a Dream

Chapter 14

Previously on OUAD:

Edward did a double-take and turned to look at Morticia who just shrugged and weakly replied, "huh...surprise?"

For a moment, Morticia was worried that he was going to faint. Could Vampires even faint?

"Fae? I thought they didn't exist? Carlisle said..." He kept muttering to himself as he lost himself in his thoughts.

'Did I break Edward Cullen? Is this really what does him in? Seriously?'

Eventually, he gathered his bearings, pacing the deserted street and muttered, "We need to call Carlisle. Now."

Morticia inwardly groaned, 'Oh shit, here we go again....another family meeting, yay! This one should be fun.'

Morticia pov: 

The entire car ride was deadly silent. Neither Morticia or Fauna tried to strike up a conversation with Edward, which Morticia was thankful for. Fauna reminded her of Alice without a buffer and she didn't think Edward could handle any added annoyance at the moment. His hands were gripping the steering wheel with such intensity that it shocked her that it was still intact. His phone call with Carlisle had been very brief but she could tell he was restraining him self a lot.  

She wanted desperately to ask him what he was thinking, how ironic. She was just as confused as he was! It was only mere hours ago that she found out about everything, so he couldn't hold secrecy against him. 

Although, she will admit she had planned to keep it private- just until she could figure out if it was complete bullshit or not. 

'I mean a fairy- really? DIsney could do better than that.' 

Instead of inquiring, Morticia decided to lean her head against the cold glass window of the volvo like before and watch the passing scenery. 

She noticed in the rearview mirror that Fauna was giving her an encouraging look and weirdly enough it didn't make Morticia more annoyed like she expected, instead it made her feel...comforted? It was almost like when her mom would make her bat shaped cookies with black frosting when she was having a bad day... it felt like home.

Morticia quickly shook herself out of that train of thought- thinking about her parents was just too painful at the moment.

Thankfully with Edward's love for breaking the speed limit, they were pulling onto the Cullen's property in no time. 

She thought Edward would storm up to the house in a fit of rage but instead he calmly walked to her side and opened her door for her, holding out his hand.

'wow, even totally pissed off, he still acts like a gentleman...woah.' 

As she heitantly took his hand, she took a glance at his eyes and saw they were a deep shade of onyx...

"Come on, everyone's waiting on us." He said in a deep but somber voice.

Morticia followed his lead and glanced back to make sure Fauna was still behind them.

The Brunette didn't seem phased at all by the notion of entering a house of vampires, but rather she looked like a kid about to enter a candy store- a bright ball of energy.

"Oh, this is going to be such fun." Fauna's accented voice tinkled like little bells once it reached Morticia's ears.

'Oh what hell this will be.' Morticia thought as she saw Carlisle and Esme standing at the door.

She had a brief flashback of when she had first been introduced to the Cullen family and the thought made her smile. 

'It seems I'm always dropping some kind of bomb on them when I come to this house...now why is that?... Hm, I guess it all amounts to my outatanding personality,' She scoffed at herself mentally.
