Bella's POV
Words couldn't describe the pain I felt at this moment. It was like my spine was on fire, she threw me right into the rocking chair which couldn't stop my trajectory towards the wall. I tried to get up, my hands trying to find some type of strength to push but she was already on me. "Bella, Bella, Bella…I advise you to stay- the -hell- down!" She yelled at me. I looked at Victoria, at the person who killed Harry and was making my life a living hell. "What do you want with me " She looked at me and then picked me up by my neck. " I want you to feel all the pain I felt when James was destroyed by your Edward" Victoria had a firm hold on my neck and I couldn't breathe. As she walked with me to my door she then threw me down the stairs. AHHHHH, I screamed, with that throw I knew she had broken my leg it felt worse then when James made that 'clean break' the doctors called it.
I had to get out of here or she was sure to kill me. I heard a car pulling into the drive way. No, I thought, Charlie can't come home right now I can't have him killed too. I heard a door close and at that same instance I felt Victoria behind me pulling my hair for me to stand up. " Hmmm…it seems to me that I have someone else to kill" she smiled as I turned to look at her with terror. "NO" I tried to kick her with my good foot which was a waste of time. "Don't touch him" I yelled at her. Victoria looked at me and smiled. "This is going to be fun" she said to me as she dropped me and started to open the door. Tears started to fall down my face as I knew whoever came through that door would be killed unexpectedly by Victoria. I tried to get up once again, to call out to whoever it could be but as soon as I moved I felt something sweep by me.
I looked to see the door closing and a quick glance of red hair running back up the stairs followed by someone else. What the hell is going on ,I say to myself. "Bella…are you alright" I knew that voice, that high pitched sing song voice that only belonged to a slender pixie like female. I turn around to look behind me. I looked at her with a look of confusion that was replaced by happiness not 3 seconds later.
"Alice….is that really you" She gave me a small smile and walked over to me cautiously. "Yes Bella ,it's me" I looked at Alice as the realization dawned on me that she really was here with me. "Alice…I.." she came over to me then and gave me a hug. "It's ok Bella we're here now" I started crying, I could smell that she was really here. Her scent was out of this world and I continued to cling to her with all the power I had left. "Bella, we have to get you looked at ok…I don't know how much of your blood I can stay beside and it's starting to get uncomfortable not breathing." "No…I'll be fine… please" I knew I was beginning to loose it, my lip started to quiver. "Bella….look at me, I have to go get Carlisle, ok" I looked at her panicking "Please don't leave me…." Alice looked at me smoothing down my hair torn between staying with me or leaving me to get Carlisle. "I'll go" I looked to my right as I saw Jasper for the first time. He looked like he was in pain and trying his hardest not to breathe.
Alice looked at Jasper with a refreshing smile. "Thanks Jas". Jasper nodded his head as he went through the back door. "Bella…Charlie will be inside in 2 minutes prepare yourself." Great how am I going to explain this one. "Do you know what I should say Alice" I look at her with hope on my face. Alice looked at me and smiled "not a clue but you could always tell him you tripped". I look at my best friend I just love how everyone is a comedian at my expense.
"Bells….." *sigh* "Dad I'm right here" Charlie looked down at me with pure horror on his face followed by realization and then shock at seeing Alice. "Hello Charlie" my dad adored Alice, probably as much as I did "Alice Cullen….is that really you" Alice smiled at my dad "In the flesh". The twinkle in Charlie's eyes as he looked at her almost made me want to laugh if I wasn't in so much pain. Ahemmm, Charlie looked back at me and then the horror and realization reappeared. "Bells tell me you didn't fall down the stairs" I look at Alice who winked at me and stifled a laugh. "Something like that dad, could you help me up" my dad rushed over to me, picked me up and put me on the couch.
