Breaking Dawn: My Style
"Edward, are you ready?" I asked once I had gotten off of his back. I anxiously awaited his answer as I strapped myself into the Volvo. He looked at me, and heard my breath catch. He smiled at the sound of my racing heart.
"Yes, love. Yourself?"
I laughed shakily, "I guess I'm as ready as I'll ever be."
He grinned my favorite smile, and then kissed my forehead lightly. I couldn't stop thinking about the reaction that I would get from Charlie. I closed my eyes, trying to relax, but was soon watching Edward.
"We don't have to do this now, Bella."
"Yes, we do actually. He deserves to know, Edward. I am his only daughter. He has the right." I sighed. I turned to see a pronounced smirk on his face, "I'm not saying that I want to. But we should get it over with as soon as possible."
"Well, at least Alice will be happy with you." He chuckled.
I just nodded, once again in fear of my voice cracking.
Minutes later we pulled up to Charlie's, and Edward walked around to my side of the car. He helped me out, catching me when I stumbled.
"Nervous, love?"
"No." But my voice cracked in panic. He continued to rub soothing circles into my hand.
We reached the door, and simultaneously stepped in. Charlie was lying on his big lounge chair, looking lazy. He looked confused at my distressed face, but his expression immediately turned into a smirk.
"Having troubles, you two?" He slowly smiled. What was with him lately? He absolutely despised Edward after he came back from… NO. I would not think of that now.
"No, dad," I watched as Charlie's face fell "we're fine. But we do need to talk to you." He shut the television off, and turned to face us.
"What is it Bells? Everything okay?" He looked a little worried now.
"Yeah Dad, everything's great, More than great. I mean-" I was interrupted by Edward coughing loudly. "Right. Anyway. Dad, as you know Edward and I are pretty serious." I watched his eyes grow larger. "So, we want to take our relationship to the next level." His eyes were at their maximum capacity now.
"But Bells, your so young and-"
"Dad, please let me finish. As I was saying, we want to take our relationship to the next level. We want to get-" I took a deep breath, and looked at Edward for reassurance "Married." We said at the same time.
"WHAT?" Charlie stormed. I could practically taste his anger. "But you… And he… But… He…" Charlie was out cold. I looked at Edward and said, "Should we stay? Or run for it?"
He smiled. "Honestly? Stay. But if he pulls out a gun or starts throwing a fist you GET BEHIND ME. Are we clear?"
I nodded.
"Good." He smiled. "You handled that amazingly, love. I'm proud of you. He's about to get up though, so you might want to back up."
"Ugh… Bella…" he moaned. Then he registered what had happened. "Dammit Bella! Why? HE LEFT YOU! He left you alone! When he came back you accepted him like the prodigal! Why?" He screamed at me.
Edward had dropped my hand like he had been electrocuted, and was slowly backing away from Charlie and I. But I barely noticed that. "Charlie! How dare you say that! He left FOR MY OWN GOOD! Don't you dare talk to him like that! He's not a dog! He's my fiancé! If you talk to him like that, then you're talking to me like that too." Edward was walking across the room to Charlie and he looked like he was trying to get something out. But once he got close enough, Charlie took a step towards him, and punched. I screamed, although I knew fully well that Edward would be more than fine. I was only worried about his reaction. I did as he told me to earlier, and I ran behind Edward.
"Please stop." I whispered. Edward immediately turned around and held my shaking figure.
"I won't hurt him. I promise, love." He whispered to me.
"LOVE? You don't love her! You left her! How is she supposed to deal with that for the rest of her life? You left her all alone! With no one to turn no except for-" He boomed.
"Don't you DARE say it." I whispered passionately.
"Jacob." He replied.
"CHARLIE! What is with you? I do not love Jacob! Don't you get it? I love Jacob as a friend only! GET OVER IT!" I screamed.
"Bella. You do love Jacob, though! You just… don't know it yet! How could you marry this… this…" he pointed a finger at Edward and screamed "THING! Jacob loves you for more than your body! He-"
Charlie was cut off by a boulder hitting him square in the face. I was shocked that I had just punched my father. I wasn't even a violent person! But still, I wasn't ashamed of it.
"I'll be back to pick up my stuff at 2:00." I said to a wailing Charlie.
The second we were out the door I passed out.
