A/N: this one is told from the girls POV and i will continue to switch back and forth between the two views.
It took everything in my power to walk away slowly and not look back. The moment that the door closed behind me I squeezed my eyes shut my heart pounding in my chest as I felt the beginnings of a migraine coming on.
“Hey are you okay?” I looked up to find a teenage boy with bright blue eyes and dark brown curly hair looking down at me. It was then that I realized that I had moved to sit down.
“I’m fine.” My voice sounded weak even to my ears and the boy look half as convinced as I felt about me statement. I groaned running my hand back through my curly black hair wanting to bury my face in my hands and forget the deal that I made. “I’d rather not talk about it.” My voice was even weaker as I said this before standing up and nodding to the boy. I turned headed towards the parking lot unwilling to face even more of the day and the feelings that were rolling off of the students in the waves.
I was half way to my car, a small black mustang that was my baby when I felt a hand wrap around my arm tugging me around to face him.
“I was told that you were here but I didn’t wanna believe it. Yet here you are. What the hell are you doing here?” I growled as I tugged my arm out of his grip ignoring the warm skin and my instant desire to lean into it.
“Who the hell do you think you are?” My voice cracked as I practically yelled the words at him, “you don’t control me nor do I give a damn what you think.” I turned to finish the short walk to my car when he reached down his hand connecting with mine. I could hear a scream in the distance as the images began to flash before my eyes. They weren’t visions. They were memories and as each one passed before me the pain in my head intensified. The brown haired girl with the dazzling smile seemed to appear the most as I continued on in a trance like state. The memories stopped abruptly as he yanked his hand away from mine.
“What was that?” His voice was low and he was visibly shaking, his emotions screaming pissed off at me. I whimpered reaching up to touch my forehead rubbing at my temples ignoring his questions for the moment as I tried to process what I had seen. She was dead. The brown haired girl with the beautiful smile was gone and he had been the one to kill her that much was clear to me.
“What did you do?” I tilted my head up to look at him as the bell rang signaling the end of class. He stiffened, growling in a way that was inhuman as students started to pour into the parking lot. He turned and glared over his shoulder as the same bronze haired that had made my heart pound in the classroom walked into the parking lot followed by those kids that he had been sitting with in the lunch room. His lips curled up in a snarl as he started towards me, the black curly haired boy that he had been sitting with grabbing him by the arm.
“Jacob.” His head snapped towards me and away from the other boy as I said his name his eyes narrowing as if he just remembered that I was there.
His eyes grew wide as he stared at me a moment before he grabbed my wrist, careful to avoid my hand and hauled me towards my car.
“What are you doing here Carleigh?” I swallowed refusing to answer him as I slipped my hand back through my hair. This was not the conversation that I wanted to be having.
“It’s complicated Jake.” He growled as he tugged open the passenger side door and pushed me in, taking my car keys in his hand as he walked towards the drivers side, slamming my door behind me.
“What happened to you, your mom said you wouldn’t be coming back the last time that you left. I mean sure you’ve always been a little strange but that thing that you just did was more then a little freaky.” I shuddered leaning back in my seat as I turned to stare out the window, pulling my seatbelt over my body. He rolled his eyes frustrated as he turned on the car and proceeded to pull swiftly out of the school parking lot.
“Let’s just say that Parker hasn’t exactly been the best father figure that I could have.” Jacob nodded his head as if that was the most normal of things that I could say all the while muttering something under his breath about stupid bastards. “I’ve always been weird I mean even I can admit that. Well Parker, he decided that it was time to find out just how weird I really was. He took me to his work and they locked me up there.” I closed my eyes shrinking back further into my seat my arms coming up to wrap around my legs, the wounds still all to fresh in my mind to keep me from taking the hellish trip into the past. “It started with a bunch of tests and then just kind of progressed from there. One day it was seeing if I could feel the emotions in a room…I mean I know that that sounds absolutely crazy I don’t believe it myself,” I continued speaking so fast that I could barely keep my breath when I saw Jacob glance at me with a skeptical look crossing his features, “the day after that they pushed it further, could I manipulate those emotions…” I was shaking by that point my arms moving to wrap tighter around me hoping to keep the shaking down. “Do you know w hat its like to be…experimented on?” Jacob shook his head as he continued to drive pulling towards the reservation and the place that I had been calling my second home since I was little but hadn’t seen in years.
“So that’s where you’ve been this whole time? A rat in a science lab?” Jacob swore as he turned off the car in front of what I recognized as his old house. I nodded not trusting my words before turning to look out the window once more my eyes glazing over with unshed tears.
“That pretty much sums it up.” I swallowed, my voice sounding thick to me.
“Why didn’t you go for help then Carleigh?” he asked in a slow growl. I shook my head, another question that I couldn’t answer and didn’t want to try.
“It doesn’t matter.”I shook my head once more before pulling off my seat belt and turning to look at him once more. “Who was that boy, the one that you were glaring at?” Jacob shook his head a small sad smile forming over his lips.
“Stay away from him.” He didn’t look at me; instead he remained staring out of the front as he let out a small breath. He sounded tired past his years swallowing as he finally turned to look at me. “Nothing good can ever come from knowing Edward Cullen, Carleigh. Just, “he sighed again as he tugged off his own seatbelt and pushed open the drivers door and climbed out. I scrambled out as well following after him and walking to the other side of the car. “Just stay away from him.” He nudged me towards my car and watched as I climbed in before closing the door. “Do me a favor; keep your doors locked and your window closed.” I nodded not quite understand his request but willing to agree if it meant that it would give him some piece of mind. With that he turned and walked into his house leaving me sitting in my car wondering what exactly had happened in the time that I was gone.
Shaking my head and convinced that I wouldn’t get any more answers that night I started my car and made my way back towards the house that my mother had been living in since I was little.
I turned off the car when I had parked and made my way up the thirteen stairs to the front door feeling a sense of calmness settle over me as I took in the familiar surroundings.
I groaned tossing my backpack onto the floor next to the front door before making my way down the stairs and into the walk out basement where my room was located. Stretching at an attempt to work the knots out of my back I pushed open the door of my bedroom and froze as my eyes fell on the man that Jacob had told me to stay away from standing in the middle of my room looking around with wild eyes. My mouth opened and I was sure that I was going to scream a moment before his steel like cold hand snapped over my mouth muffling any noise that I might have made, a wild look coming across his beautiful dark gold eyes.
