Chapter 2
BPOV
"What could be so bad about Edward Cullen?" I asked.
"Bella, Edward Cullen was a strange child" Rose said.
"How strange are we talking?"
"Stranger than you know" a deep voice said, making me jump a little. I turned around and saw it was Emmett who entered the kitchen.
"Emmett don't scare my sister" she chastised.
"Oh come on I was not" he said. I rolled my eyes.
"sure you were" he said with a sly grin.
"Anyways maybe you both could share some light on this" I said.
"Edward was in the same grade as me and Emmett back in high school. The three of us were good friends along with Tanya who's his ex. Although she and I never got along, I do feel bad that she lost her sister." Rose said.
"What made him go well…um…"I asked, trying to find the right words.
"Insane? Let me tell you sister dear" Rose said, sitting down across from me. "Edward and Tanya were together almost throughout our years at high school. Emmett and Edward were best friends at that time."
"Were?" I asked.
"That's for later. In our senior year in high school, their relationship was started to deteriorate but they tried to work it out. From what I heard supposedly she was cheating on him and Edward was oblivious. I don't know the whole story since it's been what, years since we graduated?" she asked Emmett.
"Yep but who's counting really? So one day it was a couple weeks before prom Edward shut us out. We thought it was because he found out about Tanya. When Prom came around, he and Tanya went together but somehow he found out about her cheating and he went nuts" Emmett said.
"He would drink almost every day and he got arrested a few times for DUI" Rose said.
"And this happened while he was in high school?"
"Yep" Emmett replied, confirming his answer.
"I'm surprised he managed to graduate with us that year" Rose mumbled.
"What happened afterwards?" I asked.
"Rumors were that one day while he was in college he literally had a break down and something happened that caused him to be institutionalized for a few years" Rose said.
"Did it ever become clear why?"
"No one knows but we were surprised he got let out five years ago and I was shocked that he started up his company" she replied.
"Where was I when all of this was happening?" I asked and Emmett and Rose laughed a little as we sat down to eat.
I couldn't help but go back and recap the story. Something happened between the times he was let out up until now. Who knows what happened?
"So what you're saying is that something triggered him that he had to be locked up?" Riley asked the next morning.
"Possibly but I didn't get into that part" I replied.
"You guys have to remember we do have other suspects to question again now that Kate's death is supposedly to be linked to the other murders" Leah said.
"We don't know until the results get back" I said. "What do we put Cullen under then?"
"I say person of interest for now" Riley said. "I say we could try to question the parents."
"We could question the Denali family and see what they have to say" Felix said.
"You think it's the right time to question them after what they went through" Demteri stated rather than questioned.
"Dem, we have to know what happened" Felix replied.
"Must I remind you not to call me that" he said while the rest of us chuckled.
"How about this, two of us go question her parents while some of us go question her sisters" I suggested.
"Might as well get it over with" I heard Felix mumbled.
"Any particular reason why we got picked to question Tanya?" Jake asked as we were driving towards her apartment.
"Rose was telling me on how she and Emmett were once friends with her and Edward and since we are trying to solve her sister's case, might as well question her" I replied.
"Do you think she had anything to do with her sister's murder?"
"I don't think so, she wasn't with her when she was killed but she did find the body afterwards" I replied.
We pulled up towards a nice apartment complex in Port Angeles. We got out and went over to the directory and found her apartment number. It was silent ride on the elevator knowing that we're about to question the victim's sister.
We made it to her floor and walked only a few feet before we got in front of her door. I knocked on it hesitantly as we waited to see who would be home. The door opened and it revealed a woman with strawberry hair and clear blue eyes who stood probably taller than me.
"Can I help you?" she asked.
"You're Tanya Denali?" I asked.
"Yeah?" she replied hesitantly.
"We're Detective Bella Swan and Jacob Black, we're here to talk about your sister" I replied.
"I already told the cops before" she said.
"We want to speak to you about a person if interest, if that's alright by you" Jake said.
Tanya looked at us before she stepped away from the door entry way to let us in. She led us over to the living room as she sat down on the arm chair while Jake and I took over the love seat.
"Who's this person of interest you want to know?" she asked.
"Edward Cullen" Jake said. From what I saw, Tanya's face fell when he mentioned his name.
"I haven't heard that name in years. Is the bastard dead?" she asked almost bitterly.
"Why say it like that?" I asked.
"Edward Cullen was once the love of my life or so I thought. We were inseparable in high school until I cheated on him" she replied.
"Why cheat on him?" Jake asked.
"He wanted to take things slow while I wanted us to be together forever" she replied. "I started seeing this guy James something. I don't remember his last name. Fuck I don't know if he's in town anymore but before prom he found out about the cheating and he went nuts."
"Did Kate ever tell Edward about what was going on?" I asked.
"I don't think so. But then again, she hated his guts" Tanya said.
"Was there any reasons?" Jake asked.
"She only told me that she sensed that he was off. I don't know what it was that put her off but if only I would've paid attention to what looks she was giving him whenever Edward came over…" she said sadly.
Jake's cell phone rang and he excused himself to answer it. I sat on the couch as I shifted uncomfortably in my spot.
"You're Rose's sister" she said.
"Yeah, how can you tell?" I asked warily.
"She mentioned you I think once or twice" she replied, looking at her nails.
"Bells, we got to go" Jake said urgently.
"If there is anything else" I said, standing up and handing her my business card. "My number's on the back."
As I was getting up to leave, she called out, "How's Rose by the way?" she asked.
I turned around to look at her. "She and Emmett are married now" I replied.
"Oh well that's good" she said. I nodded as we left her apartment.
"Want to tell me what that was about?" I asked as me and Jake were going down the hallway to the elevator.
"Felix called me and told me something" he said.
"Well?"
"Edward came back to town a day early" he replied. "Surprisingly, he's willing to speak to us."
This should go over well.
A/n: Okay so Edward will make his debut in the next chapter.
I wasn't sure what Tanya's eye color was in the series. I don't remember since it's been awhile since I've read the series so I just made up an eye color for her. Hope that's fine!
I'll try to update next week. It'll be a busy week for me next week so hopefully I'll be able to update.
