Emmett pov

Today was a pretty good day. All of the boxing classes were going as planed no injuries at all after this last break it would be my favorite class the juniors. As a coach I knew shouldn't have favorites but I did.

Annabelle None was the best boxer I had seen in a long time. She had been training since she was eight. I couldn't help but see her as the daughter I didn't have. Annabelle's parents never showed up for any tournaments and made her ride the bus home everyday. She was also a pretty friendly girl who was always a joy to be around. I had mentioned Belle to my wife Rosalie once and she just fell in love with her. She had taken to going to Annabelle's tournaments and supporting her the whole way through. We both notice earlier this year she had started to withdraw from everybody. Although only I noticed it in the beginning she was becoming more and more distance not talking during practice and leaving without saying anything. A few of her friends had come to me about this but every time I tried mentioning it she immediately changed topics.

After her best friend Cassie told me a on Monday that Belle had told her if she didn't show up to practice to open the letter she had given her and read it with me. That sent the warning bells off in my head. So today I had decided to sit her down and have a serious conversation with her.

I looked up at the clock and saw that the kids would be coming in pretty soon so I decided to start setting up some of the jump ropes for their warm ups.

"Hey Emmett need a hand there bro." I heard a voice behind me ask.

"Damn Jasper did you have to be so quite." I asked him before pulling him into a man hug.

"No but its funny to see your face when I scare you. Alice sends her love." He said smirking

Jasper was my brother in law who had married my little sister Alice last year. He was a pretty cool guy at 26 he was a high school counselor which fit him because he was the calmest person on earth. Well he had to be marrying Alice she was like a hyper pixie on sugar she was 24 and owned her a little boutique.

"Man Emmett when you called and said you needed help I figured it was with a student not yourself." Jasper told me jokingly.

"Not funny dude it is a student. Remember Belle you met her last year?"

"Yeah hilarious little girl and super sweet too. Is she okay?"

"That's just it man. I don't know she's been acting weird and not like herself. I'm going to talk to her during practice so I need you to watch the others." I told him running a hand through my hair a nervous habit that both my brother Edward and I had picked up from our dad.

"Man this must be pretty serious if you're going to sit her out of practice so you can talk to her?"

"It is. I'm almost afraid to ask what's wrong because I'm afraid that something is really wrong."

"Don't worry so much she's probably just going through a phase. But if there is a problem I'm here for you and her. She a very special girl after all."

"Thanks. Well enough of the heavy how about this Sunday at the family dinner I take you down at halo." I said my goofy smile sliding into place.

"What you up for a beating?"

"Ha don't make me laugh you can't beat the Emster." I told him.

Just then the group of kids walked in. Going into coach mode I told them all to change and start their warm-ups. I sighed I hadn't seen Belle walk in I hope she was just late.

As Cassie walked back out she shook her head letting me know Belle wasn't here.

I sighed I had a really bad feeling about this, but I put that aside for now running practice as usual.

After everything was finished and most of the kids had left I pulled Cassie aside.

"Cassie did Belle tell you she wasn't going to be here today?"

"No she didn't. She even promised she would be here she had something for Ms. Rose." Cassie told me with tears in her eyes.

"Its okay Cass but since she did promise I think we should read the letter. Don't you, just to make sure she's okay?" I told her.

She nodded.

I decided that reading it in my office would be best so I pulled a chair for Cassie and one for me as I opened the letter. I was written on notebook paper and her neat hand writing spread across the page. It read:

Dear Coach and Cassie,

If you are reading this them it means that I missed practice or something of the sorts that I promise to go to. I always keep my promises as you know. I'm glad both of ya'll are to. Well let me first start by saying thank you for everything that ya'll have ever done for me. Cassie you were my first friend who actually listen to what I had to say. You will never know how much that meant to me. You helped me realize that there is love in the world and to always see the brighter side of things. Coach, well coach you were the first person that I had taught me that I was worth something. You taught me that I was good enough to follow my dreams and not give up. You and Rose are the people I think of when I think of what parents should be. Since I met both of you I began to see ya'll as parents. I hope you don't mind. I know that someday when you become parents your kids will have the best parents in the world. I only wish I could have had the chance to be like ya'll. I think by now your probably wondering why I'm writing this letter and acting as if I don't have a future and well if you are reading this then I don't. I sort of have been lying to everyone. Whenever ya'll asked where my parents were or why they weren't there. I lied I didn't want ya'll to think less of me if you knew the truth. I'm a foster kid. Well right now you're thinking well that's not a big deal. That's were you are wrong I wasn't lucky in any of my homes I've been abused. Abused in every way possible, I had fallen through the cracks of the system. But I was able to deal with it because I had ya'll to help me and guide me. Well recently my foster parents realized that soon they would move me soon and that had them thinking that I was better off dead because they would get all my money. So they plotted a way to kill me and so the beatings got worse and I guess today they decided to finish me off. So I'm either dead or dying. I sort of hope that I'm dying because that way there's a chance that you will save me. I don't want to force you to do this. But just in case you want to be a hero you know where I live. Please don't every forget me. I'm so sorry I didn't tell you sooner I can only hope that I will have touched your lives in some way like you have mine. Love you forever.

Forever yours,

Annabelle None (Swan)

After reading the last line I felt tears fall down my face, besides me I heard Cassie sobbing. I felt so bad I had to save her if I could.

"Cassie, I'm going to get her okay. I'm going to save her. I'll call you tonight with what happened okay? Just go home and wait." I told her.

She looked at me, with tears streaming down her face, and whispered to me, "Save her coach please."

I nodded and ran out to my car. I heard Jasper yelling at me but I ignored him knowing he would lock up. I sped towards her side of town. Praying the whole way she would be safe. Please Belle hold on, please we need you.
