April 14th, 8:00 AM (Edward POV)
Bella just stood there still in fear. Even though I couldn't read her mind I knew what she was thinking. I bent my head down to her ear and quietly whispered to her. "Bella, love everything will be ok." Bella's hands started to shake a little and I quickly held her hands. I kissed her head and looked back up at the two men again.
The younger man coughed and broke the silence. "Ms. Bella……don't worry your father is now in a stable condition at the hospital. If you want we could give you a lift to the hospital to see him."
Bella shook her head, her eyes were still horror struck as she took a deep breathe.
"I—I will drive sown there. I j—just need to get ready and then I will go see him."
Bella put on a fake smile to make the two guys feel like she was ok, and probably so that they would leave.
"Thank you for taking your time to tell me this." She said still fake smiling.
I looked up and nodded my head so that they knew that I would take care of her. They nodded back, put on their caps again and turned to leave. I shut the door and turned to look at Bella. Her back was turned to me and she started to walk up the stairs. She looked like at ghost gliding up the stairs very slowly. I walked up to her in her room and turned her so that I could see her face. Tears…tears streamed down her face. She was shaking and I pulled her into my arms, holding her so close so that nothing could take her away from me. I felt her cool tears seep through my shirts. "Ssshh…..Bella……ssshh"
Bella looked up at me as I wiped the tears from her eyes. "E-- e—Edward I need to go see him." I nodded and stood up.
"I will let you change, I'm going back to my house to talk to Carlisle. Will you be ok, love?" Bella nodded and let go of my shirt. I kissed her again and left to give her, her time. I walked outside and looked at the sky. It was sunny this morning but now a storm is rolling in. I turned, got in my Volvo and drove away.
April 14th, 10:00 AM (Bella POV)
When Edward left I went into the bathroom and turned on the shower. I grabbed my clothes and locked the bathroom door. I stripped off my old clothes and got into the warm shower. Letting the relaxing warm water rinse sown my back I washed my hair and my body. I made sure all my hair shampoo was rinsed all the way out and then I turned off the water. Stepping out of the shower the phone began to ring. I wrapped the towel around my dripping wet body and went to go answer it.
"Hello…?"
"Bella is that you? Your voice sounds different."
"Jake? Why are you calling me now? Usually you're still sleeping." I smiled waiting to hear what his comeback would be.
"What can't a guy call his friend without being questioned?"
"Yes, if that guy has a reason to call, but anyway what's up?" Jacob's voice turned low and more serious.
"Did you get the news yet?"
"Yes, I heard it I'm getting ready to do see him right now." I sighed.
"Bella……are you going to be ok?" I could hear the worry in his voice.
"Yes Jake, I'm ok. I got to go, I have to get changed so I can go." I said brushing my damp, long brown hair.
"So you're going to the hospital? Billy just left to go see Charlie too. He thinks he was attacked."
I shot up and my eyes widened. "Attacked, by what or who?!" Jacob sighed. "Don't hate me because I'm telling you but Billy thinks it's a blood sucker."
I walked into the bathroom again and closed the door. "I see… but what would they want with Charlie?"
"I don't know it's just a theory, But any way are you sure your ok?"
"Yes, I'm ok Jake thanks for calling me I have to go, talk to you later, bye."
"Bye Bells." I hung up the phone and turned to my clothes. I got changed and heard a door slam. I opened my door and walked down stairs, I looked around the kitchen and moved to the living room. I looked around and saw nothing. I let out a sigh and turned back to the kitchen. Looking down at the ground I saw little red dots smeared on the floor. I followed the trail of the red dot into the down stairs laundry room and flipped on the lights………………..
A bloody murder scream passed my lips.
(Edward POV)
I pulled into Bella's drive way and walked to the door. It was locked……. That was unusual. All of the sudden I heard Bella scream. Without thinking I rammed through the door and ran inside. "BELLA!?" I saw a trail of blood and I quickly followed it. The trail leads to Bella's laundry room. I walked in and heard a small whimper from a dark corner. "Bella!?"
Bella looked up, tears over her face and blood all over her hands. I grabbed her and held her tightly.
"E-Edward I tried to save it, I really did." She cut off.
"What happened here Bella?" I said kissing her trembling head.
"I heard a door slam and came down stairs. I saw the red trail and followed it. Then I turned on the light and saw it." Bella pointed over to the pool of blood and a dead raccoon laying in it. A growl ripped through my chest as I held her closer.
"Come on Bella lets go get you cleaned up. I will change my shirt with the extra one in my car." I picked Bella up and walked her to her room.
1 Hour Later (Bella POV)
I walked down the stairs with Edward and we got in his car. We drove out of the drive way and started for the hospital. Edward cleaned up the mess as I was getting cleaned up again. I looked at him not paying any attention to the way he was driving. He put his hand on my lab and we held hands. "Edward….Jacob called me. He was wondering if I was ok."
"That was….nice of him." Edward smiled at me and I smiled back.
"Yea it was, but any way Billy left to go see Charlie too. Billy has a theory about Charlie."
"He does…..well what is it?"
I took a deep breath and looked at him. "He thinks that Charlie was attacked when he was patrolling around the forest."
Edward sighed. "And he thinks that it is one of my kinds, a vampire doesn't him?"
"He isn't blaming you he just……"
"I'm not mad Bella because it's the same thing Carlisle and I was thinking about." Silence fell over the car as Edward drove. I looked at him and he could tell that I was worried.
We pulled into the hospital parking lot and got out of the car. Edward right away came over to me and held me close. We walked to the front desk where a lady in bright pink was sitting, smacking on her gum. "Yes, can I help you two today?"
I opened my mouth to talk but Edward beat me to it. "Yes, could you please tell us what room Mr. Charlie Sawn is in?" Edward smiled at the girl and she blushed.
Here we go again Edward was dazzling her and he probably didn't even know it.
"Why yes I can, let me see." She flipped through a list of highlighted names.
"Mr. Swan, well it says he is in room 119, on your right." She smiled back at Edward.
He nodded "thank you" as we turned away. We came up to the room and I opened the door. There Charlie sat up right in bed with an arm cast on his right hand and a brace on his left knee. I started to tear up at I ran over to him and hugged him, making sure that I didn't hit is injuries.
"Oh Dad, are you ok? I had two police guys come to the house to tell me the bad news, and I thought of the worse. I missed you so much." I didn't notice but when I stopped talking and opened my eyes Charlie was laughing. "What's so funny?" I asked with a pout on my face.
"Oh Bella you worry too much, a little arm cast can't keep down this old man. I will be healed in no time, as soon as these doctors let me out of here." Charlie smiled at me and I felt better. I looked over and saw Billy in the corner talking to Edward. I sat down by Charlie and watched everyone. It was like about 20 minutes later and Edward was driving me back to his house. I sat up at looked at him.
"Good afternoon sleepy head, did you have a nice nap?" Edward smiled my favorite crooked smiled and looked back to the road.
"Yes, But how did I move from the hospital to your car?" I asked while fixing my hair in the car mirror.
"I carried you here. It was getting late and Charlie asked if I could take care of you since he is in the hospital. So I told him that I would always take care of you before we left."
Edward pulled up into his drive way and turned of the car. He got out and came over to my side of the car. I looked at him and started to tear up. Edward bent down and Held me. "Bella………Bella please calm down. Everything will be ok." he held me close to his chest. Letting my tears stain his shirt.
"E-e-Edward what if he knows who it was, or worse what it was."
A small growl ripped through his chest. Edward kissed my forehead and we walked into the house. I took off my shoes at looked up. Alice, Rosalie, Emmett, Jasper, Carlisle and Esme were staring at me. Esme waked up to me and hugged me. "Bella so good to see you again, dear." I hugged her back at smiled at her. Carlisle cut in between your conversation. "Bella we all have to talk." He said with a frown.

She laid there so peacefully, like an angel.
All of the sudden there was a loud knock on my door.
It was Alice and she was shaking.
"What's wrong Alice, What happened?" She shook her head.
"Edward Watch Bella, keep her very close."
