Twisting Physics

There we were, in front of a great, white house. He opened the door and the boy that I guessed is Jacob signaled for me to enter. He followed in after me and I found myself standing in a bright room with a tall, widespread wall of glass window at the side furthest from me, it looks out to the river. It was quiet, unnaturally quiet. Then, I saw a man walking down the stairs accompanied by a young woman, their movements were so fluid it was unreal. I was slightly distracted by the young woman of which now, was whispering into the man's ear. I think she noticed me, maybe she too was distracted by my stare. The man spoke.

"Hello. Edward, I trust that your hunting trip has done you well?"

"Huh? Oh, yes. Yes, Carlisle I have quenched my thirst," and he chuckled and everyone joined in.

I saw the small woman nudge the man who goes by the name of Carlisle. Now i'm catching on.

"Oh, and who might this be? Welcome!" Carlisle smiled and stepped closer to me. He looked at me close for a moment then nodded his head with a smile. "So you are a vampire like us...but i've noticed something...you have a heartbeat."

I was captivated by how calm he remained. Most of the people who have ever seen me stay away, but he seems so in control...i wonder what it is.

"Yes, I do. Actually...I don't really know what I am." My voice didn't sound real, it sounded scared and shaky. Listening to these words I finally recognized how sad I really was, well, in my situation, who wouldn't? "I sleep too...don't know why."

"Yes, you are half human, half vampire. But before we get into the details, let me introduce my family and me.

"I'm Carlisle Cullen. I am a doctor and as you know, a vampire. And this"-- he pointed out the short woman beside him--"this is Alice. she is a Cullen as well and she joined our family with her mate, Jasper. She's also the most exciting and enthusiastic out of our bunch."

"Hi!" Alice burst out in a chirpy voice. "I knew you would come!" And then she grabbed me and clasped me to her stone body.

"How...did you...see...me?" I said with the rest of the breath left in my lungs.

"Oh, I'm sorry," she let go, although I liked it, it felt nice, and I needed that.

"Well, we have a theory that with some people, when they turn into vampires they have certain...powers let's say and me, lucky me, I get to see what's happening int the future! And get to fore tell the present destined for a person from a distance!"

"Wow, so you saw that I was coming?"

"Only when you made the decision to run and stop ih Forks."

"Forks," I felt dazed and confused, where is 'Forks' anyways? Definately not Canada!

My eyes rolled back and I was out for the moment. And I thought that me being able to sleep was twisting physics!
