Topic: My new home. Date: July 1st 2019 Dear journal The trip home was boring, I kind of felt like a third wheel because all mom and dad did was talk and rather than interrupt them and remind them of my presence I just kept my mouth shut and typed on the laptop or read a book…occasionally they would acknowledge my presence and I responded accordingly to their questions and of course we stopped for lunch and breaks not that they needed it, but I did….there were a few times my butt became numb seriously not a pleasant feeling…we did eventually get back to Alaska, but before going home we pulled up at the Cullen’s place dad wanted to thank Edward and the rest of the Cullens for looking after me when he went on his trip. Mom and I followed dad, inside we were greeted by Esme and Jasper. The three of us went to the living room where mom and I sat on the couch together, she wrapped her arm around me and I did everything in my power not to get this stupid grin on my face, although I did smile…just a little. Dad walked into the kitchen as I asked where Renesmee was , Rosalie had walked in from the kitchen “she is out with Fido” she spoke sounding disappointed “Rose” Esme spoke sounding firm, Esme wasn’t the type of woman whom condoned name calling or bullying. Rosalie said nothing else instead she approached mom and smiled “I have a present for you Sarah” she spoke and pulled out a cool looking IPhone “I have taken the liberty of adding in everyone’s numbers both from my family and our cousins” your number is also saved in the phone as your number until you memorize it.” it was a nice gesture and mom stood up and hugged Rosalie and thanked her. Dad walked into the room with Edward and Bella, standing up I left moms side to stand by dad and offered my hand out to shake Edwards “thank you for having me as a guest in your home Mr Cullen” I spoke formally, well sure I’d call him Edward before, but this was different I was thanking him for his hospitality so it’s only natural I be respectful it’s one of the things my dad taught me when I was younger…be respectful to your host. Edward had this crooked smile on his face “your welcome anytime Tobias” he spoke shaking my hand before lowering his hand I smiled and walked back to the couch and mom seemed quiet she stood up only to stumble forward, I helped keep her balance and dad was at my side in an instant he asked mom if she was ok, and she told dad she just needed some rest…I asked dad what was wrong with mom and he told me she was just feeling a little unwell. I knew it was a lie, vampires don’t get sick I wanted to know what was going on, but dad looked totally fixated on mom he was fussing on her lifting her up into his arms “Brian will you react your freaking Tobias out…calm down” Dad turned around to look at me while he held mom and had this creepy fake smile on his face “Don’t worry she is fine” I raised an eyebrow as mom looked at me, “yeah Brian…that’s real convincing” mom spoke with sarcasm Dad thanked the Cullens again and told them we would be in touch and he left of course I followed dad was heading towards the front seat of the passenger’s side when mom told him she wanted to sit in the back next to me. I climbed into the backseat and dad lowered mom next to me and she placed her arm around me and leaned in to kiss my forehead “relax Tobias…I’m fine…” she spoke as if she had Edwards’s ability to read my mind I asked mom why she was like this so frail and weak. It looked like it was hard for mom to explain and dad tried changing the subject by talking about how great the house was and how we would love it, but mom spoke over him silencing dad “The Volturi did something to me…to make me sick, don’t worry hun…I’m not going to die or anything, it’s just going to take me a while to recover from it” the more I heard about the Volturi the more I hated them, why were they like this…I get that those who have power seek to use it, but why have power in the first place…can’t we all live in harmony? I guess the answer to that would be to enforce the law of the vampires, maybe once upon a time that was the truth…now I don’t think it is, the Volturi have become corrupt with power now instead of being law enforcers…their just bullies. Mom rubbed my head “hey earth to Tobias….did you hear me son” I snapped out of it and looked at mom “yeah I heard you mom…I understand” I spoke of course it was a lie, I didn’t hear what mom was saying, I was off in my own head lost in my own thoughts that I didn’t hear anything, but there was one thing I know for sure “don’t worry mom I’ll take care of you” I spoke and felt mom’s arm around me tighten. Looking at mom’s expression I smiled, she seemed so happy and when I heard her speak I nodded my head “how lucky am I to have two big strong men to look out for me.” she spoke and I nodded my head, I leaned towards the front passenger seat, in the pouch behind the seat was my drink bottle, it was vanilla coke… I started to take a drink from the bottle “so Tobias you have a crush on Nessie” mom asked which made spit out my drink as I began to choke on the coke that was already down my throat “I what….No” Brian chuckled “nice one Sarah” he spoke as he kept chuckling, mom was gently hitting my back as I continued to struggle to breath, she then began to rub my back it felt nice “well it looks like you do, all you want to do is spend time with Nessie” mom teased and I rolled my eyes and put my drink back in the pocket I didn’t feel safe drinking now eying my mother curiously “She is my friend mom” I answered her, Mom smiled “your girlfriend” she continued to tease and I folded my arms and scowled, fixating on the review mirror and could see dad watching me he let out a chuckle and “alright Sarah stop picking on Tobias you’re going to put him in one of his moods” dad sounded amused, I guess I didn’t mind being the butt in their jokes at this moment, it’s not like they were doing it to be cruel…they just doing it to be amusing. Mom asked me what our new home looked like and I couldn’t answer it because I haven’t actually seen it yet…spending time with the Cullen’s and then all this mess going on well it’s no wonder I haven’t seen my new home yet. Mom seemed thrilled though she tightened her grip around me “well we get to see our home for the first time together” the thought had never occurred to me that this would be both of our first time viewing our new home, we had made it to the drive way and dad started talking about how great the new house was, and how we would love it. When I looked to my mom for her reaction I could see scepticism ….seeing it made me feel closer to her, she must love our real home as much as I do. From the outside all I could say was wow…not as in wow I loved it, but just by how big it was…the house had two floors. Dad pulled the car over and he climbed out and carried mom out of the car I followed dad and looked at mom feeling anxious and I heard her speak again “Tobias stop being so neurotic I am fine I promise” dad looked at me and smiled “listen to the woman Tobias when your momma says she is going to be alright it means she is going to be right.” It was around that time my mom giggled when dad called her momma, I have no idea why, but to me the word momma sounds Southern. Dad gave us the tour to the house it was all pretty standard and furnished. We came to the second floor and dad showed us around, one room had a king sized bed and a CD player there was also a cabinet with a vase on it and in the vase were roses. The next room was dad’s officer it was empty with the exception of a polished wooden style desk and a laptop the next room is completely awesome dad calls it my play room it had this massive TV attached to one of those little hard drives according to dad the hard drive has a few hundred movies in it. I also have a cool x-box 360 near the TV and a book shelf full of books on the top part of the shelf and on the bottom Xbox games. And get this I have like three bean bags. Next to my awesome playroom was my bedroom it was really simple and clean, very well done it had a single bed, a desk and laptop with a cupboard and beanbag in the corner it was nice and simple. The last room had one of those keyboard piano’s and guitars it had a comfy chair, I looked up to mom and saw she was in awe dad explained that this room was mom’s music room he told me all about how talented mom was. “She must be she has the voice of an angel after all” mom smiled at the complement “yeah and the mouth of a sailor” dad added, mom who was still in dads arm moved one of her hands to hit him at the back of the head. After the grand tour we went to the living room area and dad put mom on the couch and I sat beside her, dad went to the kitchen to make me something to eat for dinner and I sat with my mom leaning against her shoulder I could feel her wrap her arm around me so I ended up leaning against the side of her chest mom’s arm was around me and her grip was sort of tight. She started to stroke my arm it felt nice, I felt warm inside and safe…all these years I wondered what it was like to have a mothers love….it felt incredible and I loved every second of it. Dad eventually returned and told me to go have dinner that it was waiting on the table. I reluctantly left my mother’s side and had my dinner, dad cooked some chips and salad and a nice cup of blood. Dinner was great, when I placed the dish in the sink I returned to the living room to find mom in dad’s lap dad had his wrist to mom’s mouth and they both looked a little uncomfortable. Mom looked up and stopped instantly and smiled “hey how was dinner” she asked wiping what looked like venom from the side of her lips “hey you finished already….you eat like a horse little man” she spoke while dad nodded his head, I asked mom what she was doing and she evaded the question and slowly climbed out of dad’s lap with his help, dad was so careful with mom he treated her like she was fragile crystal. I joined my mother and we spent the next hour and a half together until it was bed time, I was sad and reluctant to go to bed…my time with my mother just keeps on flying by…a minute feels like a second an hour feels like a minute, a day…it feels like an hour...I have so much I need to learn from her so much more I want to know. I did as I was told and went to straight to bed after getting changed and brushing my teeth. I couldn’t remember what I dreamed about, the next thing I could remember was waking up to a girlish laugh, as I climbed out of bed slowly I snuck to the stairs and sneaked down till the living room was visible and I saw my mom and dad they were dancing, well sort of…dad’s hand was around mom’s waist lifting her inches of the ground while the other hand was holding hers. Mom recited the lyrics to the song Do you wanna be a poet and writer Do you wanna be an actor in lights? Do you wanna be a soldier and fight for love Do you wanna travel the world? Do you wanna be a diver for pearls? Or climb a mountain and touch the clouds above Be anyone you want to be bring to life your fantasies but I want something in return It was at that point dad leaned in to kiss mom on the lips and he swung her around, I don’t think I have ever seen dad as happy as I have without mom…it’s like he founding the missing piece of the puzzle. Their lips pulled apart and they both spoke in unison “Tobias go to sleep” mom had a giant smile on her face and I ran back to bed and after some effort I went back to bed. When I woke up this morning I came to write in you and tell you everything, anyway I have to go mom is calling me I will update you later ok ~Tobias The song featured in this entry that Sarah Recited is Burn by Tina Arena
