These dreams didn’t wake me up screaming or sweating cold as the horrid ones of the ‘dark ages’ would. These were more original somewhat. The kinds of nightmares kids have; monsters chasing after them, getting lost in a dark wood… There was no mystery to them. No secret that I had to find. Of course, they weren’t completely understandable. I still could not see what the ‘monster’ was. Whether it was animal or something more extraordinary, which I was pretty sure that it had to be, given the extraordinary creatures that were actually after me at that very moment.

Victoria, the Volturi.

But I didn’t know why the dream wouldn’t reveal Victoria’s face. So it had to be one of the Volturi. Someone I hadn’t seen so I wouldn’t recognize.

That could probably explain the shadow.

‘Anyways, prophetic or not, I have to concentrate.’

Today was calculus and biology.

Biology was much more comforting to process what with my already present knowledge of the subject and my personal angel sitting beside me to sooth my nerves. Despite what Emmett may have thought, I did not allow Edward to whisper the answers to me.

“I don’t tolerate cheating.” I told him while we studied at my house. Well, I was the one needing study. Edward was already recapping on all his history’s worth of biology as he sent kisses up my neck. “Of any kind.” I turned to glare at his angelic face.

Calculus was another story.

“How do you think you did?” Edward asked me as Alice and I piled inside the Volvo.

“I don’t even want to consider it.” I said grimly. It was actually very annoying how I was the only one among the three of us that had reason to worry.

“Why’s that?” He asked while pulling out of the parking lot.

“Well, it started making sense so that probably means I failed.”

“You know what you really need and what would be perfect for such an uncertain time as this?” Alice piped from the backseat and I immediately glared out the window.

“No, I do not need whatever it is.”

“Do too!” Alice bounced. “You need a new outfit for graduation.”

That I couldn’t deny. My only skirt was becoming quite notorious lately.
