Chapter 3
Edward
I knew it must have been bad when Bella froze next to my heart could beat it would be ripping out of my stone cold body. I was so worried why was Ness like this and why had Alice not seen it and warned was no one taking me on. I could hear Ness breathing rapidly down the phone.
"You're worrying me know Ness tell me what's wrong". Bella still hadn't unfrozen I was begging to worry that what was affecting Ness was affecting Bella too. The next thing I heard made me want to cry.
"Dad"*crying* "please don't worry" *sniff* "I can't stand Jake" I heard her voice break on the last word.
"JAKE" I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I froze. Bella came out of nowhere and grabbed the phone out of my hand. I didn't see her unfreeze.
Bella
My little girl was in pain. That Dog had hurt my daughter. Wasn't it bad enough he had imprinted on her? Jake used to be my best friend. I didn't choose him because he wasn't the love of my life. Which I know say Edward was the love of my wasn't the point I hadn't been able to be as lose to him anymore. He'd changed since the battle with the voltori. I can't quite put my finger on it but these past 8 years he hadn't been round much at all. Ness usually saw Jake down La Push. Which Alice still wasn't happy with because she couldn't see Ness's futcher and it didn't help her at all by going hanging with a pack of wolfs. Emmet didn't like Ness spending time with Jake recently. He hated him for making Ness's girl problems stronger. As for the rest they kept there opinions to themselves. Jasper and Edward and Alice I felt the most sorry for because they had to feel, read, see their relationship.
"Ness!" I heard her breathe in sock.
"Mum?" I could feel her confusion. Edward had his hand out next to me for the phone he wasn't going to grab it while walking down a street I had done it when no one was around. Everyone would have known I had no intention of giving him the phone back until I knew what had gone on.
"Yes, love it's okay know tell me what's happened or elsewhere on the next flight back". I needed to hug her the hardest part was I couldn't. I was in London and she was at home in Washington St. Helens. With the family well surely someone's with her.
"Mum you don't need to come back, Listen I have to go". By this point I was about to break the phone why wouldn't she just spit it out what had happen with Jake?
"Ness don't you dare put that phone down!" Slinance she didn't put it down put she wasn't breathing.
"Renseme Carlie Cullen!" "What has happened!" Edward held my hand at this point probably so whatever I did wouldn't be to rash as we were in a crowed place. That or he was scared of what I was about to do. The most likely sinaro was that people where staring at us.
"Fine mom, Jake's left me." I must have gone rock solid frozen not moving on. If I was human I would have been bright red with steam coming off me. I could feel Edward tugging me trying to get me to move.
"Jake's left you?" I said angrily.
"Yes " I could hear her crying.
"Jake has crossed the line where on our way home!" I put the phone down so I didn't say anything I would regret later. Edward was frozen in shock by what he had just herd. I could feel him shaking like Jake did. I was worried that he was going to blow and do something stupid.
"Edward, are you alright?" I said slowly the anger still evident in my voice.
"Jacob Black has done what to our daughter!" I could tell he was gripping his teeth. If he was human they would of smashed by know.
"Bella Jacob is going to pay for this". I looked at his eyes and I saw tears I would of said he was crying if that where possible.
"Edward, I know, I want to get out of London. I'm sorry I need to be with Ness where going to leave first thing tomorrow morning." I looked at him and we grabbed out hands and started walking back to our hotel. When we were inside Edward still looked in despair like someone had shoved an iron down his throat blazing hot.
"Bella, give me your phone I need to speak to Emmet" I sighed I didn't want to know what he was asking Emmet to do or say but whatever he was telling him I didn't want to hear. I could hear him talking but I put my shield down knowing he would be able to hear my thoughts. It worked by a minute on the phone he came to me. I was rushing round the hotel room with our suitcases. He grabbed me and stopped me from going into vampire over drive. He kissed me on the lips patiently and looked me in the eye.
"Bella It's going to be okay. Jaspers in our room trying to calm Ness down. Alice has rang Rose she's hunting with Esme and carsiel they will be back tomorrow. Emmets spoke to Sam well not spoke. But I'll tell you that later. All you need to know is that Jacob is not with Sam where everyone thought he would be. Sam said he's not seen him in weeks." I began to comprehend what he was saying but all I could manage at this moment was a slight nod. My eyes filled up with tears and I wished I could cry.
"Alice has booked our tickets our flight leave at 4 am and its 5pn know nine hours and we'll be on our way back, Bella look at me it's going to be okay. We'll get through this okay?" again all I could manage was a slight nod. Edward left me to pack and he took a walk in the November rain. My thoughts of Ness where getting all in my head. I needed to speak to her but I knew Jasper was trying to calm her down. I didn't want to ruin his work with her by her hearing my voice that was filled with so much pain and regret. So I texted her. She would have been able tp read it over and over again I knew it would calm her.
"Darling, me and your Dad will be back soon. We promise say calm it's going to be okay. I wish I could be there to hold your hand. Baby please don't cry don't let Jacob win. I love you loads and loads stay strong and listen to your. Uncle Emmet Uncle Jasper and Aunty Alice and Aunty Rose. And of course you're Gran and Granddad. We all love you see you very soon. It's breaking my heart. Big hugs and kisses from me and Dad we will love you for eternity goodnight princess. Sleep tight angel love you, Mom xxxxx" It broke my heart writing it but at least it would help keep her calm hopefully until we get back. My poor little princess.
