Bella POV
Isabella Swan sat firmly in the beige chair in their kitchen. Her father Charlie Swan was currently drinking away his pain and his mother was comforting her sister, Alice.
This wasn't what she wanted. She didn't want to see her beautiful sister upset and crying to the point to depression, she didn't want to see her father drinking, and she especially didn't want to see her mother emotionless, and blaming herself for what happened.
No one could ever have guessed that James would have done that. No one in their right mind would think that this perfect family was not so perfect. They would never guess that the eldest Swan, James Charles Swan would rape the youngest Swan, Isabella Marie Swan. But most of all, they never would have guessed that he would kill son, Harold Swan.
The world always seemed like a beautiful place, until you were hurt, thought Isabella. She shook her head, making her long brown hair fall down her shoulders in loose waves. Her brown eyes filled with tears.
She just couldn't fathom how her older, big brother who used to be straight-A student, student body president, start soccer player, loving brother, and father could change so drastically.
How could he rape her? They used to be best friends, they always were there for each other…but apparently that wasn't the case. At all.
How did this happen? Why couldn't she prevent it? All these question swarmed through Isabella's mind at the speed of light.
Her darling nephew, who she was absolutely loved, was dead. She watched him die, she held his dead body. She had to tell the world what happened. She was the one who had to watch her family wither into nothing.
She convinced herself that this was her fault. That she was the reason James did these things. No matter what her family tried to do, they couldn't pull her out of her dark cage.
She wanted to die. To kill herself, slowly and painfully. She had caused all their pain, and that was why her family was now, in figurative terms was dead.
She hated life…she was ready to do whatever she could to forget about what happened.
And when her family learned about this, they quickly decided that maybe Forks would be a better place than here, in Phoenix, Arizona. Maybe, just maybe they could start anew.
Edward Pov
Edward Cullen sighed. Geometry was not his favorite subject, especially when his annoying, preppy, conceited brother was flirting with the teacher.
He was seventeen, with a pale, muscular body that drove women crazy. His auburn hair was messy and his green eyes showed pain.
He was finding it difficult to even focus for ten minutes. All his thoughts, kept heading back to that night, six years ago. To the night that fucked him over. The night that ruined everything.
It was all his fucking fault, every last single fucking thing was his fault. Everything.
Damn it. He was damned. There was no way that god would want him now. Edward was sure that the gates to heaven were closed and that the fiery pit of hell was beckoning him home.
It was all wrong. It wasn't supposed to be like this. It all went wrong.
He was fucked.
And he knew it.
And he knew he was seriously fucked over when he realized, at that precise moment in geometry class, it was happening again……all over again………
