Bella POV
"Bella, Bella honey come on you have to wake up" I heard some one talking.
"NO, I am too comfortable." I said as I rolled over.
"Yeah, I know, you are lying on me" replied Sam.
"What" I sat up quickly. "Oh head rush"
"You ok Bells?" Dad asked.
"Yeah Dad, just sat up too quickly and why am I lying on you Sam" I asked.
"You feel asleep and must have been having a nightmare, I tried waking you up but when I grabbed you, you sort of cuddled up to me and haven't moved since. I tried to move but you as soon as did you started screaming again, so Charlie and I thought it was just easier for me to hold on to you." Sam stated.
"Oh Ok – Where are we Dad" I asked.
"We just pulled into LaPush" Dad replied.
I looked out the window and we were driving past the beach. "Dad can you let me out here and I will meet you at the house please" I begged.
"But honey everyone will want to see you" Dad said
"I know, but I just need to regroup before I have that many people in one go." I said. "Please Daddy"
"Fine, but only if Sam goes with you." Dad said.
"But Dad I don't need anyone to come with me and I will be at the house within fifteen minutes max." I said.
"No Bella, Sam goes with you or you come straight to the house." Dad said.
"Fine" I grumbled. "Let us out then"
He stopped the car and Sam and I jumped out.
"Don't worry Charlie I will personally have here at your house in the next fifteen minutes." Sam said.
"I am counting on you Sam" Dad replied before driving off.
I went running down to the beach without even waiting for Sam. As soon as I got down there I started to feel funny, I couldn't explain it, it was like there was something missing. I didn't know what it was, I turned around to ask Sam about it but as soon as I saw him the feeling went away. I am really starting to get confused.
"Hey are you Ok?" Sam asked as soon as he got a bit closer.
"Yeah, just had a funny feeling but its gone now" I answered as I sat down at the beach
"Can I ask you some questions about yourself while we are sitting here" he asked.
"Sure as long as I can ask some back" I said.
"Ok – How old are you?" he asked
"18" I replied, "and you?"
"20" he answered. "When is your birthday?"
"13th September" I said "And yours?"
"13th March" he said. "Favourite colour?"
"Black" I said, we kept going back and forth asking each other questions, I was surprised at how much we had in common.
"Bella we better get up to the house, Charlie will be having a cow, we have been gone for fifteen minutes now and it takes five minutes to get to your house." Sam said as he stood up.
"Ok" I said and held my hand up so he could help me stand up. Once standing I started brushing the sand off of me and then Sam grabbed my hand and we started walking up to my place.
Charlie's POV
I had just dropped Bella and Sam off at the beach and was driving home, I couldn't stop thinking about what I saw at her place, I mean I know why they have body chalk outlines for, but I just couldn't or didn't want to think about what had happened for them to be there.
I pulled up out the front of my place and saw Billy sitting there in the door way. I got out of the car and walked up to the door.
"Where is she?" Billy asked.
"I had a lovely drive Billy thanks for asking" I said sarcastically.
"Never mind that, where is she?" he asked again.
"She is down at the beach with Sam, she needed a bit of time before she came and faced that lot" I said as I pointed into the lounge room, where I could hear not see the pack.
"Why did Sam go with her?" Billy asked.
"He imprinted on her" I said. "So it looks like we get to tell her everything, wont Jacob be happy about that, he wanted to tell her as soon as he phased"
"Yeah, but I don't know how he is going to take the imprint, he sees her as a sister." Billy said. "Do you know what happened with Renee?"
"No, she's not ready to talk about it and from what I saw at her house I don't know if I am ready to ask" I replied.
"Hey Charlie, Where's Bella?" Jacob said as he came into the kitchen. Embry and Quil followed him.
"She will be here soon, no actually she should be here, she said fifteen minutes it's been that now, where the hell is she?" I started worrying.
"She will be fine Charlie, Sam is with her" Billy said.
"Why is Sam with her?" Jacob asked
"Because she wanted to stop at the beach and I didn't want her to be alone, is that ok with you Jacob" I was starting to get angry not at Jacob but because Bella should be here. Jacob and his friends went back to the lounge room to watch some more tv. Just as I was about to go down to the beach and get her the door opened.
Bella POV
Sam and I had just got back from the beach. I looked through the door and could tell my Dad was starting to get a little pissed. I opened the door and before anyone could say anything I jumped in Dad's arms and hugged him.
"I'm sorry Dad I didn't realise we had stayed down there that long." I said.
"That's ok just don't do it again." Dad replied
"Bella, come here and give your favourite Uncle a hug" Uncle Billy said as he wheeled himself around the kitchen table. I jumped onto his lap and gave him the biggest hug. "I missed you Uncle Billy" I said
"I missed you too honey" he replied.
"Where's Jake?" I asked looking from my father to Uncle Billy.
"Him and his friends are in the lounge room" Dad said
"Ok, well I better go in and say Hello" I said. I wanted to see Jake I did, I just didn't know how I was going to handle so many people. Dad, Sam and Uncle Billy followed me as I walked into the lounge room. I walked in to see Jake, Embry, Quil and two other guys that I don't know playing games.
"Well isn't this a nice welcome home" I said, standing there with my hands on my hips.
"Bella" all three guys turned around and came running at me, I grabbed Sam's arm and stood behind him so they couldn't all grab me at once.
"Bella" Jake whined. So I came out of hiding so to speak and he grabbed me in a hug and started spinning me around. I thought I heard someone growl, I turned around and saw Sam glaring at Jake.
"Come on Jake I want to say hello too" Embry and Quil said. Jake put me down and I was instantly grabbed by both Embry and Quil at the same time. Once they had let me go Jake grabbed me again and pulled me further into the lounge.
"Bella this is Paul and Jared" Jake said as he pointed to the two guys in the room.
"Hey Guys how are you going" I said
"Good thanks its nice to finally meet you, the guys are always talking about you" Jared said.
"Yeah but you are much prettier then they said you were" Paul said. I could tell he was going to be trouble but hey I could live with it. Jake had grabbed me and pulled me down on his lap and had a firm grip on my arms like he wasn't going to let go any time soon. I was starting to panic. I couldn't move.
"Jake let me go." I said.
"No, I finally got you back here you are not going anywhere." Jake replied. I started to struggle.
"Let me go please" I was really starting to panic now. I was having trouble breathing. Jake had let go at this stage but I couldn't tell.
"Bella, honey, breathe. Jake has let you go now." Sam was crouching down in front of me. But he had grabbed my wrists in the process. I yelled out in pain. He immediately let go. Jake starting pulling up the sleeves on my shirt and saw the red marks on my wrist. Everyone in the room went quiet.
"Bella, what are these" Sam asked.
"They are rope burns" I whispered.
"WHAT" everyone yelled.
