It's night. The moon shines brightly through the window. I take a quick look at the alarm clock.
11:49pm.
This silence is killing me. I jump out of the window, skilfully land on the soft moss and start running . At a clearing I come to a stop. I'm standing in the moonlight and think about everything.
What if they find out about my gift?
What will they do then?

I've only seen the Volturi once in my life so far, when I lived there. I don't remember what exactly that year was. I displaced that. At that time, I still hunted people.

Even then, they slaughtered any tourists. I couldn't handle it, because there were also children they killed. That's why I decided to become a 'vegetarian'.

I enjoy the bath in the moonlight and then run again. Suddenly I stop.
I smell something.
A human.

I follow the smell. It really attracts me. I try to keep my distance. But then I see him.
Brown hair.
Blue eyes.
He camps here in the woods.

I don't want to be there as a stalker, so I take a few steps back. Unfortunately, I step on a few branches. He looks around startled. I can't help but run away.
Luckily I can't blush anymore, I think.

I jump through the window of my room. Then I sit down at my new desk and take a history book. It certainly brings me to other thoughts.

In the morning everyone gathers in the living room. Alice has already seen Jane and Alec coming soon.
It's probably only a matter of seconds.
The bell rings. Esme opens the door.
At least they have the decency to ring the bell, I think, and hear Edward laugh.

They enter the living room and watch everyone. Then her bored gaze falls on me.
"Amber Cullen?", Jane looks at me suspiciously. She remembers me. I nod.
Carlisle steps in front of me.
"What gift does she have?", Jane asks.
"None", Carlisle says without hesitation.
"I'm not sure", Alec says to Jane. She nods.
"Pain", she says. I break down and writhe in pain. That I'm screaming doesn't seem to bother Jane and Alec. They even enjoy it.
"Again, does she have a gift?", Jane asks.
"I don't have a gift!", I shout. She turns her gaze away from me. I get up trembling.
"We'll find out", Alec says threateningly. And then they're gone.

I let myself fall onto the couch. Renesmee hugs me. I feel as if I have been grilled.
"What do we do now?", I ask desperately.
Yes, what do we do now?
