Chapter 3 – Fights
Bella stared at the sword in her hand. She hated it. She felt dizzy. She felt sick. It felt so heavy in her hands, stained with the pirates scarlet blood…She looked up, and ducked as another pirate charged at her, his sword narrowly missing her left ear. She screamed, and Peter turned and attacked.
"I could have beaten him myself!" Bella complained.
"Didn't look like it…" he said, and went back to fighting Hook. Bella screamed in frustration, and resumed attacking pirates that were coming at her left, right and centre…
Someone poked Bella's cheek.
"Wakey wakey, sleepyhead…" Edward sung.
"Agh!" Bella screamed, and fell out of bed. "Edward, it's a Saturday morning… why did you wake me up so early…?"
"I didn't. It's 11:28am."
"Bugger!" she moaned, slowly climbing out of bed. She was shattered. "I promised Charlie that I would help him this morning!"
"Don't worry. He came in an hour ago, and saw you were sleeping, so he just left you. He's worried. He hears you screaming at night. Are you gonna tell him?"
"Tell him what?" Bella moaned sleepily, climbing back into the warmth of her bed.
"About the dreams. Or are you just gonna lie. He's gonna ask at tea tonight." Edward stated.
"Oh, I almost forgot that you could read minds…" she muttered, and rolled over in her bed. Edward pulled her covers back, and Bella screamed again.
"My, my, somebody's in a screaming mood today. What was this dream about?"
"Never you mind. Now get out whilst I get dressed."
-xXx-
Bella lounged around the house all day, occasionally picking up some dirty laundry here, or dusting a shelf there, all while Edward was blabbering in her ear.
"No, really Bells. Who is Peter? He must be a bad guy, if he's giving you nightmares." Edward persisted.
"I have already told you, he's none of your business!"
So, as Bella wouldn't tell him, he made up his own assumptions.
"Was he another vamp that you met when I left you?" he guessed.
"Hell, no!"
"An ex-boyfriend?"
"You could say that." Bella muttered.
"Did he hurt you?"
"No!"
"You said that real quick. What did he do to you?" he kept asking.
"He hurt me emotionally. Happy? Will you stop asking questions now?"
"Nope."
Bella groaned in frustration.
"What did he do to hurt you emotionally?"
Bella turned round, staring furiously into Edwards golden eyes.
"He left me! He abandoned me, and I haven't seen head nor tail of him since! He left me, just like you! Dropped me off at home, and never looked back! Why d'ya think I went into such a state when you left? Because I thought it would be a repeat of that time! I thought you would just turn away from me, and never come back!" Bella screamed, and burst into tears.
"Aw, Bells, you know I wouldn't do that…" Edward said, and tried to embrace her, but she shoved him away.
"You would. You took away any memories that I would ever have of you, like you never existed. Well, he didn't do that. He promised me what he was doing was for my own good, just like you said. And he forgot about me. Went back to that god-forsaken place he calls home, and probably found himself a new mother while he was at it!" she sobbed, grabbing a nearby Kleenex and wiped her eyes.
"Whoa whoa whoa! You have a son!?" Edward demanded.
"NO! See, this is why I aint telling you anything! 'Cause it's too bloody hard to describe! He can live forever, make new friends and new enemies and new relationships every fucking day because he's just a boy! He can do what he likes!"
"So he is a vampire! A child vampire!" Edward growled.
"No, he isn't! And if I tell you what he is, you wont believe me. And if you did, you would jump to conclusions, just as you have here!" Bella yelled. "Charlie will be home soon. Get out."
"Wha-? Why, Bella. Why the hell are you so upset?"
"I said get out of the fucking house!" she screamed, pushing him with all of her strength to the front door, and slamming it in his face. "And don't bother coming back in through the window!"
As soon as she heard Edwards car pull out of the drive, she ran upstairs to her bedroom, and cried her eyes out into her pillow, just as she did that night, six years ago, soon falling into another sleep plagued with nightmares…
-xXx-
"What the hell is wrong with her?" Edward kept saying, over and over again, pacing around the room while Alice read a magazine.
"Oh, for crying out loud, she's just upset, that's all. A heap of dreams are haunting her about her past. Wouldn't that stress you out too, if you had to sleep?" Alice asked, casually flicking through the magazine. "Ooh, look! A shoe sale! 75% OFF!?"
"Ugh, typical Alice. A family member is upset, and your fantasizing about shoe sales." Edward grumbled, and banged his head off the wall. A few crumbles of plaster fell to the ground.
"Better clean that up, before Esme gets back" Rosalie said, entering the room. "Why are you so upset? So, Bella's being a bit moody. Its probably just her time of the month."
Edward resumed banging his head off the wall.
"She told me to fuck off. Don't you see that as a sign?" he groaned, sounding like someone had just killed his puppy. Not that they could have a puppy. Emmet would just eat it, if Jasper didn't get to it first.
"Not really." Alice said. "And whatever you do, don't bother going to the Volturi. It'll just cause more trouble."
"You really don't help." He said. "Anyway, I'm off to kill something. I'll be back in a few hours."
"Ok. Stay away from La Push. Bella would never forgive you if you killed one of the dogs."
Edward banged his head off the wall once more, before zooming off into the forest.
"Oh, bloody hell. I thought I told him to clean this up!" Rosalie snared. Alice went back to reading her magazine.
-xXx-
"Don't worry, your safe now." Peter said, cutting Bella's bonds. As soon as he was free, she kicked him as hard as she could in the shins.
"Ow! What was that for?"
"Where have you been!?" Bella demanded. "Hook stuck me here 4 hours ago! The water is freezing, and I've lost all feeling in my toes!"
"Well, there was about 3 pirates, and they decided to play a game of "Lets see who can shoot Peter in the-"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever! Get me out of here!"
Bella snapped awake, and found that she couldn't move her neck. She shuffled around a bit, and with an almighty crack she found that she could move her neck again.
"Well, that's the last time I sleep at the opposite end of the bed…" she muttered, while rubbing her sore neck. Whilst walking over to her bedside table to get her brush to try and tame her mop of hair, she tried to remember what had happened in this dream.
"The incident at Skull Rock…" she grumbled. "Not exactly a good memory…"
Ok, another chapter! I hope this one is ok, and that Bella's tearful babbling makes sense! By the way, this is based off events both in the movies and the book.
