Bella
September 29, 2006
"Are you really not going to talk to me?" Carlisle asked as I headed for the door, I pushed past him this morning, got something to eat and finished the rest of the homework that was due today, not speaking to him or even listening to him.
"I'm going to be late for class." I spoke, as he stood in front of the door.
"Bella, please."
"Three months I went through the worst pain I'd ever felt in my entire life, worse than being bitten by James. And I went through it all alone! And you didn't come back, you didn't even call! Or email. You saw the pain I went through and didn't do a damn thing about it! Now move, I'm going to be late." I said, he sighed and moved out of the way. I opened the door and walked down the stairs to my car.
Regret filled my body when I saw Carlisle's face when I backed up, his face was filled with pain and hurt. I sighed and tore my eyes away from his, the gate opened and I pulled out.
I was 5 minutes late to class because I couldn't stop thinking about Carlisle, I'd really hurt him. I never meant to hurt him but when he told me he saw the pain I was in, or Alice had seen it, it hurt me. And then all the lies, just made everything worse.
By the time I got back home around dinner time, no one was home and it was dark. I sighed. He was probably at work. I watched a little TV, reheated what I ate last night and then went to bed.
I was rudely awaken at 3am, I sat up in my bed and groaned.
"What the hell, Alice!" I exclaimed, I slipped my feet into my slippers and walked downstairs, the door to the study was open and I froze in the doorway when I looked in. Two guys were standing over my desk, the one looked up and we made eye contact.
"Shit! You said nobody was home!" The other one looked up and I realized the taller one was coming toward me and I ran.
"GET HER!" I ran as fast as I could but being the clumsy person I am, I tripped on the stairs and smashed my face on the hard floor. Everything went black.
When I woke up again, a person was on top of me and I screamed. My vision was blurry but I could tell my clothes were ripped and the man was inside of me.
The person smacked me hard across the face.
"Shut up, or I'll kill you bitch." The man hissed in my face, tears slipped down my face as I blacked out once again.
Carlisle
I saw Alice rushing toward me when I got out of surgery, her face was full of panic.
"Alice? What's wrong?" I asked.
"W-We went hunting, I didn't see it until after."
"Didn't see what?" My full attention toward Alice but that's when I smelt it.
Bella.
I didn't even let Alice explain, I ran as fast as I could to the ER. They were pushing her in the moment I burst through the door.
"What happened?!" I asked, rushing to Bella.
"Home invasion. She was badly beaten and it looks if she was raped." My blood boiled and my eyes turned black.
We rushed Bella to a room and that's when she woke up and started screaming, I yelled at the nurse to get something to knock her out.
5 hours later
I walked through the doors to everyone who was sitting in the waiting room.
"How is she?" Alice asked first, though I'm sure she already knew.
"She's fine, she's stable but I've had to keep her knocked out because she woke screaming. What in the hell happened?"
"We were going over to see her but we needed to hunt first, I checked just to make sure everything was going to be alright and it was. We were about 30 minutes from her house when I saw the vision. It was too late, the guys were gone and Bella was out. Emmett and Jasper followed the scent but it stopped about 2 blocks over, they must have gotten into a car. It was two guys and what I can see from the study, they broke in thinking no one was home. Bella's blood is everywhere upstairs, all over her bedroom and in the hallway and on the stairs.' Alice said. I growled and pushed the hair out of my face.
"They did a real number on her, her face is going to all bruised up and she has a broken arm."
"Was she raped?" Esme asked, I couldn't even say anything I just nodded.
"Someone has to call Charlie and Renee." I said.
"I'll do it." I nodded as Alice pulled her cell phone out and walked away.
"Don't worry, Carlisle, we'll found the bastards who did this." Emmett said, I nodded. I would be killing those bastards with my bare hands.
Bella - October 5, 2006
I blinked open my eyes and pain filled my entire body, I groaned and looked around the room. Charlie was passed out in one of the chairs and Carlisle was staring at me, holding my hand. His eyes were black, meaning he hadn't fed.
"You haven't fed." I said, my voice quiet and hoarse.
"I haven't left your side." He said.
"You need to feed."
"Bella?" I looked over at Charlie as he opened his eyes and rushed to my side.
"Hey dad."
"God, Bells! How do you feel?"
"Sore."
"I'll get the doctor." He said, rushing out of the room and then I looked at Carlisle.
"I haven't worked since you got hurt. Dr. Allen is on your service."
"What happened? Did I trip or something?" I joked, all I can remember is yelling at Carlisle this morning about him knowing about my depression and everything else is black. He was very quiet and I knew something was wrong.
"Carlisle, what happened? How long have I been out?"
"You've been out for about a week. Someone broke into your house and you were attacked." When he said attacked, his voice turned a bit, laced with venom and anger.
"What do you mean, attacked? How was I attacked?"
"Carlisle!" I exclaimed when he didn't answer after a few minutes.
"You were raped." My entire body froze and that's when Charlie and Dr. Allen came in the room. Dr. Allen. He checked me over, Carlisle still holding my hand. Charlie seemed to glare at Carlisle because of this.
Alice was able to get Carlisle out of the room as I knew Charlie wanted to talk to me.
"So, you're dating another Cullen?"
"Carlisle's different and we're not dating. Just friends."
"Friends don't sit by hospital beds for almost a week, no sleep, no food refusing to move. What's going on with you and him and when did you get back into contact?" Charlie was angry, his face was red and he had his hands on his hips.
"Alice and Jasper are both attending Princeton, and before you ask I didn't know that, and I ran into Alice at a coffee shop, they live just a few houses down from me."
"Isn't he married? Plus, he's like 34, Bells. That's a bit old for you. How does Edward fell about this?"
"He's not married. He's only 28. And Edward is in Italy with his biological parents. I know you're worried but I'd rather not play 20 questions right now." I snapped, in no mood to deal with Charlie, I was in pain.
"I don't like it."
"You don't have too. I'm 18 and I don't live under your roof anymore."
The entire time Charlie was here he glared at Carlisle and always made little comments whenever Carlisle did something. And of course I had to explain why Renee wasn't coming up to New Jersey which resulted in a crying fest. I just wanted to get back to my life.
After a few days Charlie left and I wasn't sore anymore, but my arm was still in a cast which I wouldn't be able to get off until late October. Carlisle refused to leave my side for the first few days and wouldn't hunt, until I pushed him out of the door and told him not to come back until he had hunted. He agreed but had Esme stay with me just in case one of the guys came back to finish the job or anything.
Thankfully I don't remember a thing about what happened. Alice and Rosalie had the upstairs cleaned and redone before I even got out of the hospital so I was fine. Besides the few cuts on my face and the cast on my arm, slowly I forgot what happened.
