I smiled at Alice as I came out of the bathroom; I was wearing jean shorts and a white flowing top. I looked at my phone, I had sent Edward a text saying that I was going to stay at my dad's tonight but he wasn't replying.

I yawned and Alice frowned, "You tired?" She asked.

"Yeah." I said while sitting back down at the table and looking around the restaurant, "Alice do you mind if I go home, I am not feeling the greatest."

"Sure, you want me to drive you or . . .?" She left the statement hanging.

"No thanks, I am only going to my dads but thanks for dinner; I will pay you tomorrow for it." I said to her, as I stood up and kissed her cheek.

I walked out of the restaurant and started to make my way home but when I got to the dirt track road, I noticed a Volvo, but I recognised the plate number . . . Edward.

I parked my car on the opposite side of the road, I looked through the passenger side door, the glass was broken.

My heart sped up, I looked at him, and my hand went over my mouth, I opened his drivers side door and once I did it, his body fell forward, I caught him and held him, "Edward . . . Edward wake up." I yelled, "Edward."

He didn't move and I held him tightly too me, looking at his badly battered face. I shakily got my phone out and dialled 911.

"Chief Swan speaking." I heard my dad say.

"Daddy, Edward he's . . . he's not waking up and, and I am scared dad, I am on the side of a road and its dark and Edward is bleeding." I cried, my hysterics coming into full force.

"Bells, we are on are way, can you tell me were you are?" He asked, his voice panicked but demanding.

"About a mile south of the lodge on the road you take home from work." I said.

"Okay, do we need an ambulance?" He said.

"Yes, badly, he looks as if he got beaten but dad he's not waking." I cried even louder, dropping my phone.

A few minutes later, I heard sirens, they were loud. I watched as my dad got out of his car a sad expression on his face. He came over to me, his hands moved as if he wanted to hold Edward up but he didn't, he looked clueless.

A paramedic came over to us; she looked at me and Edward's position. I then took a hold of his shoulders, slowly lifting him upright.

My dad caught me as I was about to fall, I looked at the blood on my hands and my white top was completely covered in blood, I gasped in shock, shaking.

I held onto my dad as he carried me to his car, he sat me down and I looked at him, I looked at his face but didn't see anything. He had a blank expression.

"Who did it?" He asked me.

"I-I-don't-k-k-no-w." I said shakily.

He nodded and got up, "Stay put." I nodded, I watched as he ran over to Mark, one of the deputies, he said something to him, he gave orders to everyone on the force and talked to the driver of the ambulance, he gave mark a piece of paper and pointed to some things before running back to the car, he put me in my seatbelt and I could tell he was bringing us home.

He opened the front door and helped me upstairs, he turned on the shower and took of my top and shorts, he left me in my underwear and bra. He turned the shower on and handed me soap and shampoo. I showered for five minutes before getting out; Charlie wrapped me in a towel and led me to my room.

He got out sweats for me, he left me to change and I did. I lay on my bed, wanting to see Edward.

There was a knock on my door and Charlie came in. "The hospital rang, Edward is stable but is going into surgery, they are repairing a bleed in his stomach and also they stitched his face, Carlisle says that he wants you to stay put, sleep and you can see him in the morning, O and Alice is coming by tomorrow morning to collect you." I sighed, warm tears coming out of my eyes.

I heard my dad sigh and he came to the bed, he wrapped me in his arms and I held onto them a whimper escaping my lips.

"Bella, I know you're scared and sad but Edward will come through, he always does. Remember in high school when he got tackled on the football team and he was in hospital getting metal screws in his leg to keep the bone together, he was fine after that." My dad pointed out.

"I know dad but this time it is major surgery, he could bleed out and die, and if he dies were does that leave me?" I said, my voice weak and fresh tears made there way down my face.

"Bells . . ." Charlie said, but stopped his face sad.

"Dad go back to the scene and find out who did it. I am fine here, just go find who put Edward in the position he is in." I said.

"No Bells, I am staying with you." He said.

"Dad go, I will be fine. I want you to go and find out who did it." I said, staring him in the eyes.

He sighed in defeat, nodding. "Okay but you are not to move. No going out, no letting people in that you don't now, no unlocking any door or window and no cooking, I don't want you to harm yourself in any way." He said.

I nodded, "I promise."

He kissed my forehead and wrapped the afghan around my body before leaving my bedroom and going to his car. I heard him drive down the road.

I lay there for what seemed like hours, the doorbell rang and I jerked upward. I looked out the window and saw Emmett's jeep.

I sighed in relief before going downstairs and opening the door, He was in hysterics by the look of his face.

He came in and immediately went to the kitchen, he sat down and looked at me, tears running down his cheeks, I had never seen Emmett cry before. I sat across from him and held his hand.

"What happened?" I asked him.

"Well he was fine at the bonfire, then Jacob and his friends arrived, he said something about you sucking on his dick and moaning his name and that you didn't want to move to Seattle but Edward just got up and left, he walked away, he didn't want to get into a fight because he was taking your feelings into consideration, he knows you don't like him having a misunderstanding with Jacob." He said his voice sad but hard.

I gasped, "He said that? I have never been with any other guy apart from Edward, I am a virgin." I said shaking my head; I couldn't believe Jake would say something like that.

"I know, no one believes Jake, he said he was good at making jokes. So he was making a joke a pretty sick one too." Emmett rolled his eyes.

I shook my head, "Who did it to Edward?" I asked.

"I say Jacob and his friends but I still don't know what happened to the window of his car." Emmett whispered, his eyebrows furrowed.

I sighed, I felt tears in my eyes, I felt violated in a way, and I didn't feel comfortable with Jacob making jokes about me.

The house phone rang and I jumped up to get it. "Hello."

"Hey Bells." My dad said, "I was just checking up on you. Are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah, Emmett is over." I told him, my voice weak.

"O that's good." He sighed, "Can you put him on the phone?" His tone becoming serious.

"Sure." I said giving the phone to Emmett.

"Hello. Yeah, that's what I was thinking of. I now its weird how it's broken. Do you know who it is? Okay, I will be there in a minute. Bye." Emmett said.

"Come on Bella, we have to go to the station." He whispered.

I nodded and went upstairs getting into jeans and a hoodie; I put my converse on and locked the house door, following Emmett to his car.

He drove to the station, and parked beside a police car. He looked at me and I sighed looking out the window.

I closed my eyes and got out; I walked up the steps and into the warm reception area. I walked to my dad's office, he was sitting in his chair and a sad expression was on his face.

"You know who did it?" I asked him.

He sighed and gestured with a nod over to the corner, Jacob, Sam and Embry sat there handcuffed.

I gasped and looked at them, they all had blood over there shorts and there hands were bruised. I could feel myself fuming, I ran at them my fist flying but someone pulled me back. I fought against there grasp but I just found myself gasping for air and feeling weak.

I was sat in a chair and I heard a door being closed. I looked up to see my dad with his hands on Emmett's shoulder, he gestured to the seat beside me and Emmett reluctantly took it.

My dad sat down at his desk and I looked at him, "They were found a mile away from Edward's car, they were hiding in the woods. They have admitted to beating Edward in the parking lot, they say Edward got in his car, was driving really fast and they followed him, scared that he would crash, once Edward's car was on the side road, Jacob said he punched in the window, seeing if Edward was dead or alive." I frowned and just then a knock hit the door. "One sec." My dad said, going over to his door.

He opened the door and Billy Black stood there, his face looking tired and annoyed. "Charlie I have to talk to you, you have to get Jake out of this mess, and he's a good kid."

My dad frowned and moved away from the door, "Tell that to my family, my soon to be son in law is in surgery because of what your boy did, now I know we are friends but I am not letting him slip away from this free handed." My dad said, nearly shouting, this was the first time he referred Edward and Emmett as family and I liked it.

Billy looked at us, shocked. He stepped away from the door and I glared. I looked at the clock my eyes wide at the time, nearly 6am.

I watched as my dad closed the door and Emmett held my hand. He rubbed his thumb across my palm, soothing me. "It will be okay." He reassured me, I nodded.

My dad sat back down and shook his head, he was obviously angry. "Um when Edward wakes up will you ring me, I need to question him." My dad whispered.

I nodded, "Do you need me to get you anything?" I asked him.

"No I am fine Bells, go see Edward." He smiled half-heartedly at me.

I hugged him goodbye and Emmett and I got up and left, I glared at Jake, Sam and Embry as I walked out. They all stared at me and I shook my head, Emmett and I got into his car, making our way to the hospital, I was really nervous to see him, I knew he would look worse . . . . . .
