Chatper 3

BPOV

I was sitting on my bed, alone, like I had been for the past week. My stitches had been taken out of my leg, but I wasn't allowed to leave... yet. Today was the day my fate would be decided. A social worker was coming to take me to a foster home, to see whether I would like it there. Fat chance of that happening.

Carlisle walked into my room, followed by a strict looking woman. She glared at me before turning to Carlisle.

'Is this the child you were talking about?' She stated, scribbling furiously onto a clipboard.

'Yes it is.' Carlisle replied. The woman turned to me again.

'You'd better follow me. I hate having to find homes for children like you, but I think I may have found one.' She said smiling. This was all a cover, I knew that much.

I stood up and grabbed my backpack from the floor. She looked closely at me before sighing and walking out of the room. I started to follow her, but Carlisle grabbed my hand and placed something in it.

Reaching the car, we got in. Whilst she was driving, I opened the piece of paper I had been given and started to read it.

Dear Bella,

Please don't throw this away once you know who's writing it, although I think you have a pretty good guess who it is already .I just wanted to say, I'm sorry for screwing up your life. If I had never sat on your table, none of this would have happened, and you wouldn't have had to leave.

I know what you're going through, ok? And, if you ever need to chat, well, I would say call, but I know neither of us have phones because of... well, I won't go into it, but I'll give you my MSN address instead. If you don't add me that's fine, but I'll always be waiting.

GoodbyeBella.

Edward

I carried on reading his MSN address before the letter finished completely, and I realised I wasn't alone in this world anymore.

We pulled up in front of a house, and it didn't look too inviting. I was escorted to the door by the social worker, before she left me too it.

I knocked on the door, and waited whilst somebody fumbled with the catch. The door opened a crack.

'Yes? What do you want?' The man snapped at me.

'Errm, my name is Bella Swan? You've been expecting me?' I mumbled. The man looked at me before tutting and opened the door fully.

'Make yourself at home sugar, 'cos your never going to leave.' And with that he slammed the door and walked off.

1 week later

EPOV

I still hadn't heard from Bella, and I was worried. I remember the first time I had seen her, and I knew the look well. She didn't know her place in the world, and then when I saw the cuts, I knew exactly what she was going through. I didn't mean to mess up her world.

And the night she got shot. I was only holding her down to keep her from getting hurt. I didn't understand why Carlisle told me to let go, but I did. And then her stupid, stupid father shot her in the leg. I still can't get her scream out of my mind.

And here I am, sitting in front of the computer waiting for it to load, expecting Bella to have added me.

Slowly the computer turned on and showed me the homepage. I impatiently loaded MSN, and to my surprise, I had one new add. I accepted quickly and found that it was Bella. I didn't have chance to start a conversation, because she had already done it.

(This is their convo ok? Sorry if it doesn't make sense)

-bella- says:
Sorry I haven't added you for aaaaages. I didn't even know my foster had a computer :(

Eddie Boy says:
No probs. I'm just glad you did. Everyones been reali worried about u, especially Alice.

-bella- says:
She'll cope. And I'm fine, just a bit lost at the mo.

Eddie Boy says:
Lost? Brb just gonna change my screen name, Emmetts been on here ;)

-bella- says:
I don't know :S I just feel as if theres no place for me in this world. I'm stuck at home all the time, I'm not allowed out. The only time I am is for school or when I have to do the shopping. I hate this foster parent, he's making me get left behind in my schoolwork and my grades are suffering...

~Edward~ says:
I know what it's like falling behind. That happened to me loads of times too. If its that bad, why don't you just phone up the social worker and ask to move? I did that lds of times b4 I moved in with Carlisle.

-bella- says:
I would, but he keeps hurting me, and I can stick up for myself, but if I do, then he looks me in my room with no food or water. I just don't know what to do anymore, I'm so scared.

~Edward~ says:
It'll work out fine, you'll see. I'll talk to Carlisle about it. I'm really sorry Bells but I got to go. Just hang in there for me, ok?
Byee

-bella- says:
I'll try.
Bye

And with that she signed out. I didn't quite know what had happened, but all I knew was Bella was in danger, but just how much danger, I wasn't quite sure.

Sorry, guys, another mushy chapter :L I think all my chapters are mushy tbh.

Remember to review :)
