Smothered
Chapter 3
The next few weeks were strained and hell!
Emmett wasn't talking to my brothers, Edward was ignoring Emmett and Alec, but talking to the others and I was caught in the middle.
"Bella, look I'm sorry this is so screwed up, but I just didn't want to see you get hurt." Alec said for the millionth time.
"Drop it Alec… It's done and over with. Just remember what dad said, you're NOT the boss of me, none of you are, you're just my protectors." I rolled my eyes. I loved my dad, but what or who I needed to be protected from, I didn't know.
I'd had others guys get brave and ask me out, but they just weren't my type, I knew most of them wanted one thing, although Paul's friends had been flirting with me, the past few days and it's not as if I didn't know Jake and Embry, I'd grown up with all these guys, but Paul was intense and he was worse than Alec, when it came to me and guys.
"Bella, you're looking pretty down lately, what's up?" Jake walked up to me on my way to P.E.
"Oh, hey Jake, Um… Just my brothers. You know." I shrugged.
"Did Sam and Paul tell you that we're having a bonfire Saturday night?" he asked.
"NO! I'm sure my brothers will be there. I'll probably be home, the 3rd wheel to Alice and Jasper." I shrugged.
"Come with me. Be my date." he smiled.
"I-I don't know. You know how my brothers are and Paul and Sam." I grimaced.
"Pfftt… Who cares? This is your life. If your dad says yes, will you come? Please!" he was begging.
I sighed. "O.K. I'll ask my dad and text you later."
"Cool, here's my number." he scribbled it on my hand and kissed my cheek.
Damn, he was brave.
"I'll be looking forward to your text." he yelled down the hall as he jogged to his next class.
I was brought out of my stupor when Alice yelled at me.
"Swan, get your ass in here, before your late and have to run laps." she yelled.
"Coming, coming." I sighed and walked into P.E.
My dad came home that night and I talked to him about Saturday and he quickly agreed, because he knew Billy Black and Jake.
"Same rules as before, but I'll let you slide until 11:00pm, since you'll be at the reservation." he hugged me. "And I'll tell your brothers, to leave you alone, unless you look distressed or threatened." he nodded his head, for no argument.
"Thanks dad. I really would like a normal night out." I smiled.
Needless to say, Alec and James were the most pissed off.
James and Jake didn't get along at all and Alec, well… It was because Jake was a boy.
Hey, Saturday is a GO! Pick me up? ~Bella
Hell Yeah! I'll be there at 6:00. ~Jake
Awesome, I'll see you then. ~Bella
The rest of the week flew by and before I knew it, Jake was knocking on my door.
Jasper answered, since he was the only one home with me.
I came down stairs in a pair of skinny jeans, my Chucks and a deep blue, v-neck, long sleeve shirt.
"You look great." Jake smiled.
"Thanks." I smiled back.
"You kids be home by 11:00pm, you know dad will be calling for you and I won't cover!" Jasper smirked.
"Gee, thanks twin!" I smirked back and walked with Jake to his car.
The drive was long and kinda quiet, a few questions here and there, but nothing serious or prolonged.
"We're here." he announced.
"Oh, Joy! My brothers are here, along with Edward and Emmett. This should be fun!" I sighed.
Of course my brothers had to come up to Jake and harass him.
"You mess with our baby sister and we'll fuck you up." James spat.
"James, shut up!" I said as I punched him in the arm.
I grabbed Jake's hand and led him away from my brothers, before they could say anymore.
We walked to the food table and I saw Emmett. The hurt in his eyes was unmistakable.
"Hey Me." I smiled, Jake snaked his arm around me and pulled me closer, I shrugged him off.
Emmett just gave me a nod with his head and walked away.
"What do you see in him?" Jake snapped.
"Excuse me; you're not anything to me, just a date. I don't have to explain myself to you." I snapped and stormed off to the fire.
As I was sitting there, Edward came and sat beside me.
"Hey, why so glum?" he smiled.
"Oh, just thought this would be a fun night." I shrugged.
"I can make it fun." he raised his eyebrows.
"Ugh! Edward." I sighed.
"Hey, just trying to make you smile." he said and walked away.
Jake came over and sat, not saying anything to me, talking to his other friends. It was like that for about an hour and a half.
"Jake, I'm ready to go. This is not what I had in mind." I sighed.
He turned to face me. "Oh? And what did you have in mind?" he smirked.
"Not this." I waved my hand.
"Come on, I'll drive yaw home then." he mumbled.
My brothers saw me leaving and Alec started too approached and I mouthed I was going home; he nodded and returned his attention to beer pong.
Jake and I were on the long, dark road between the reservation and Forks, when he pulls off onto this side road.
He unbuckles and leans over the console and grabs me, kissing me.
I slap him and he gets angry.
"What the fuck?" he yelled.
"What are you doing? I asked to go home!" I snapped.
"No! You said the bonfire wasn't what you had in mind." he tried kissing me again.
"Get the fuck off!" I yelled.
"No one can hear you out here Bella." he said in a deep, gruff tone.
He got out of the car and walked over to my side, opening the door and pulling me out.
I'm kicking and screaming, but he just laughs, I'm no match for his strength.
He throws me on to the hood of the car and is trying to pull my shirt off. I'm kicking him now and he's still laughing.
"Don't fight it and it will feel better. We all know you went out with Emmett and he only goes out with girls for one thing. A FUCK! And now it's my turn." he smiled.
I was now crying and trying to fight him off.
He leaned down to kiss me again and I clawed his face. He jerked back and I rolled off the hood and took off into the woods. I couldn't see where the fuck I was, all I know is I heard him behind me and kept running. Finally I made it to a little clearing and was so tired, my legs were shaking and I thought I was going to puke. I could here him calling me in the woods.
I walked across the clearing, trying to catch my breath. Finally I saw the hiking path that we went on all the time.
My phone buzzed, thankfully it wasn't on ringer.
I picked it up and whispered. "Jasper, I need you." I was sobbing.
"What the hell? Where are you sis? Alec called to tell me you were on your way home and it's been over an hour. WHAT HAPPENED?" he growled.
"Jake, he tried to… he tried to rape me." I cried into the phone.
I hear Jasper yell to Alice to call Alec and then my dad. I told him where I was.
"Hide in the little ravine. Can you do that? He shouldn't be able to see you, if you go straight down and lay against the bank." Jasper sighed.
"O.K., hurry please." I cried.
"Leave your phone on and in your pocket, that way I can hear anything that happens." he demanded.
"O.K." I put my phone in my pocket and climbed down the side of the ravine.
It felt like forever and I heard Jake getting closer and closer. I kept my sobs to myself and leaned flat against the side. Jake was very close now. My heart was pounding and I swear he'd be able to hear it.
Then, my saving grace, my brothers and dad.
"Oh, hey Mr. Swan, I lost Bella out here somewhere, I'm sorry. We decided to go for a walk and…" that's all I heard from Jake.
I heard a crack and then James "I told you motherfucker! Don't mess with our sister!" and then what sounded like a stomp.
"Bells, come on out." Dad yelled.
I climbed up the side and lunged at my dad. "I was so scared daddy." I cried.
"It's O.K., you're safe now. My deputies are taking him away and he'll be charged with attempted rape. But, you've got to come to the hospital, I want you checked for these cuts." he smiled down at me and I just nodded.
"Don't worry, my dad is there." Edward smiled. I didn't even see him. As I turned to smile at him, I saw Emmett and he looked murderous.
I walked over to him. "Are you o.k.? I asked.
"No! That fucker hurt you. Why? Everyone knows you're a good girl and who your brothers are, does he have a death wish." he said as he punched a tree truck and then screamed in pain.
"Damn it, now there's 2 of you to be seen." my dad grumbled. "Let's go, we'll call your parents on the way there Emmett." my dad said with a nod of his head.
Emmett rode with me in my dad's police cruiser and my brothers followed, of course.
It was a long night in the ER.
Emmett crushed his hand and had to have it put in a cast and they were treating all my cuts and scrapes. I had 2 big gashes on my face and multiple ones on my arms.
They also checked the bruises to make sure he didn't hurt me worse.
There was no mistaking his hand prints on me.
They also took pictures for my dad, so he could get him 'taken care of.' as he'd said.
We finally got home and I just wanted a shower and sleep, but my brothers had another idea.
"We need to talk." Alec said and led us all to the game room.
"Alec, can't I please get showered first? I fucking mud and twigs in my hair." I said tiredly.
"Fine, but hurry." he snapped.
I went back upstairs to my room and showered, where I broke down. I cried and cried, I don't know for how long, but I did, until there was a knock on my bathroom door. "You O.K. sis?" Mike asked.
"Yeah, just finishing up." I said hoarsely.
I finished and threw on my P.J.'s and headed back to the game room.
"O.K., I'm going to start, since I feel responsible." Alec stated.
"Alec, it's fine. Really, I just want to forget about it and sleep." I sighed.
"Bells, it's not FINE!" he snapped. You were almost RAPED! Do you get it!" he yelled.
"YES! I fucking get it! I WAS ALMOST RAPED, not any of you! So just leave me alone!" I yelled and ran to my room.
Luckily they didn't follow, but I knew they wouldn't leave it be, tomorrow would be another day.
I cried myself to sleep.
AN: I hope this doesn't piss anyone off, she didn't get raped, but close enough to where this will cause her to be more moody and withdrawn.
