Bella:
"Pull!" she yelled again, when she had smashed her share of glass and pots. There was terra cotta debris, and little shards of glass lying everywhere in the grass, shining in the light of the full moon.
"No!" I yelled at her, "It's my turn!"
"Just give me one more hit!" she begged.
"No! I've already given you three extra hits. It's my turn now."
"Please!" she begged.
"Fine," I sighed and picked up one more flower pot, small with little flower designs etched into it. I pulled my arm back, waiting to launch it through the air.
"PULL!" she yelled. I hurled it up in the air, and watched it glow as it was illuminated by the moon, almost as bright as the sun itself. Then it fell to the earth as Jalin smashed it to bits with her bat. The red-brown dust settled towards the ground as she leaned against her bat, smiling.
"I love doing that." She sighed. "Alright, your turn," she said as we switched positions.
I gripped my bat with both hands, trying not to wring out my hands too much, or I would dent the bat far too easily.
"Pull!" I barked, as she hurled the little glass statue up into the air, glittering and shining dully in the moonlight. And then one of the light refractions shined in my eye and I had a flashback.
Edward, shining in the meadow, letting me trace at the veins in his arm, mesmerizing me.
I fell to the floor, hands clawing at my eyes, trying to gauge the image away. I screamed in terror; when would the haunting images stop!
"Callen?" she asked, as the glass hit the ground around me and shattered. "Oh my God, Callen!" she yelled as ran to me, shaking my shoulder.
"What's wrong?" she yelled as venomous tears streamed down my face.
Edward:
I wasn't quite sure what I'd expected when I arrived home. But it wasn't this. No, never would I have expected this.
I don't know…maybe I half expected, or possibly hoped, that there would be a group of police squad cars, lights beaming; sirens blaring, around the house to arrest me for attempted identity theft.
Maybe I expected them to be sitting on the couches, waiting for me to return… So they could ambush me.
I don't know what I was expecting. But I did not expect Emmett to tackle me and restrain me while the others filed in.
Somehow, I did not expect them to yell and scream at me for being an idiot. But they did.
"What the hell were you thinking, Edward?" That was Jasper. He was snarling.
"Edward, though I might not have the authority to restrain you from doing what you wish to do, but once you cross the line and do something that endangers the well being of our family, I must step in." That was Carlisle.
"Why do you have to be such a fucking idiot all of the time?" That was Rosalie. Naturally.
I didn't wait to hear what the others had to say. I pushed Emmett off from being on top of me, and he scrambled to keep me down.
"Get off of me!" I yelled, standing up and brushing the dirt off of my clothes. "I'm not going anywhere."
I sat down on the one-seater in the corner.
Rosalie thought a particularily rude thought, and I turned to glare at her.
"Enough." Roared Esme; looking between Rosalie and me. "Whatever is going on, I'm certain Edward will explain."
I took a deep unnecessary breath.
"Yes, I will." I said calmly.
"I'm dying to hear your brilliant explanation, Edward." Sneered Rosalie.
I opened my mouth to say something, but again, Rosalie cut me off.
"I bet this has something to do with the new girl, the vampire." She leered.
I just glared at her.
"She—"
"I'll bet Edward's in love with her, that he's stalking her just like he did Bella, just—"
"ROSALIE!" That was Emmett, not me. "Enough." He must have noticed how I was clenching my hands into fists, ready to kill her.
I took another deep breath.
"She knows where Bella is." I finally said. They stared at me with blank faces.
"Edward…" Carlisle said, sadly. "Edward, maybe you should move on. If you can't find her, then maybe-"
"She's not dead!" I roared, angrily.
"I did not say that." He said calmly.
"But you thought it! You're all thinking it!" I turned to Alice. "Even you! And you have visions of her still!"
She gave me an apologetic look. "Edward, how do we even know these visions are of her?"
I glared at her for a minute. "I know it's her!"
"Edward…" That was Esme, her thoughts made no more sense than Carlisle's. I stood up.
"No! Save it, I'm going to my room." I left, and to my surprise, no one bothered stopping me.
Bella:
After I finished crying, Jalin stood up and smashed all of the remaining glass sculptures; leaving only the pots for me to smash.
"Thanks," I said, meaning it.
"No problem." She said again. I sighed.
"Are you sure you don't want to talk about it?"
"Yeah," I said.
I jumped to my feet again, and she made her way slowly to the pile of pots, and picked out a big one.
She held it over her head, waiting to launch it.
"Pull!" I yelled, as she hurled the enormous pot into the air. There was faint moment that made me wish more than anything that it would crash into me and that I could die. But I knew that it wouldn't be possible.
It fell to the earth, and I swung my bat around, smashing it as hard as I could.
Edward:
I lay curled in a ball, trying to block out the babble of words out of my head. It came so easily before, why couldn't I now?
"Argh!" I groaned, clapping my hands over my ears, wanting the voices to stop.
I couldn't listen to any of my music. It all reminded me of my Bella. And if I thought it hurt before, it's nothing compared to how bad it hurts now.
She's alive, I know she is. I'm going to get her back if it's the last thing I do!
