The Golden Swan // Edward Cullen

Chapter seventeen

Brea was laying in the familiar meadow, letting the sun soak into her skin.

"Brea!" A familiar voice called out.

Brea sat up and looked around, searching for the voice.

A dark shadow emerged from the tree line... It was Edward.

"Edward!" Brea smiled.

She jumped to her feet, walking towards Edward.

Suddenly he was gone.... Disappearing into thin air. Brea felt a warm hot liquid pour out of her arm, she looked down and saw blood. Brea looked back up hearing a low growl. Jasper stood before her, hissing and growling..... He jumped at her but Brea flung him into the air, across the meadow.

"Brea?" Edward said.

Brea looked up,  Edward was looking at her with disgust.... then sadness.

Edward turned on his heels and walked away, disappearing once again.

"Brea! Wake up!" Bella called out.

Brea's eyes snapped open, she turned to look at her door and noticed it was open. Charlie and Bella walk in.

"Good morning sleepy head!" Bella smiled, wrapping her arms around Brea.

"Happy birthday girls!" Charlie said.

"W-What that's today?" Brea asked, completely forgetting.

Charlie handed Bella and Brea their gifts. Both girls got a digital camera and a scrapbook.

"Dad, we all agreed, no gifts," Bella said.

"Wow! Dad, this is actually really great. Thank you," Brea smiled, jumping out of bed to hug her dad.

"Your mother got you both a scrapbook, since this is your senior year," Charlie smiled.

"I can't believe we are seniors," Brea sighed.

"How'd you both get so old?!" Charlie smiled.

"We are not even that old," Brea laughed.

"I don't know kiddo. Is that a wrinkle?" Charlie asked.

Brea jumped over her bed and looked into the mirror, searching her face.

"Kidding!" Charlie laughed.

Brea grabbed a pillow off of her bed and tossed it at Charlie, who bolted out of her room.

"That's not funny!" Brea called out.

Charlie's laughter filled the hall and soon disappeared.

Brea and Bella both got dressed and headed outside.

"You want me to drive you or are you gonna ride the bike?" Bella asked.

"It's a nice day! I'm gonna ride the bike," Brea smiled, hopping on her bike and pulled out of the driveway.

"Race you to school!" Brea called out and sped off.

"No fair! Brea!" Bella called out.

Brea laughed. Hearing what Bella said.

Ten minutes later Brea pulled into the parking lot.

"Brea! Hey!" Angela greeted as Brea climbed off her bike.

"Hey Angela!" Brea smiled.

"You finish the Shakespeare assignment?" Mike asked.

"He means will you finish his assignment?" Jessica laughed.
