After Dark

33.

I'm sitting in my room again. The sun has already set. Suddenly my phone rings.
"Hello?", I ask.
"Amber!", the voice screams. It's Carissa.
"What's going on?", I ask in confusion.
"Gray, he's gone!" She says desperately.
What, how can he be gone?
Where did he go?

Oh no, tomorrow the school will start again!
What are we doing?
"Do you know where he went?", I ask, sounding just as desperate as she is.
"Unfortunately not, he was just gone", she tries to calm down, but fails.
"I'll try something, everything will be fine", I say and hang up. I think of Alice's gift.
Suddenly I can see him. I can't believe what I see.
He is with the Volturi.
How can that be possible?
How can he do that to us?
I wish I could cry, let my feelings run free. But that doesn't work.
Suddenly Ren's in the room,
"What happened?", she asks and comes closer.
"Gray, he has betrayed us, he is with the Volturi", I just give stunned from me.
"How do you know that?", she asks.
"I have seen it in a vision, his decision is well established", I say, getting up,
"I'm going outside again, you should go to sleep slowly, tomorrow we have to go to school", I say and go.

I walk to the cliffs to have peace for a while.
At the moment I prefer to be alone.
