I bent down and kissed my little angel and bid goodbye to them both and then headed off for school.
Chapter 6
Bella POV
With the sun shining bright above my head as a walked to school, I had a feeling that today was going to be different but I couldn't pin-point why.
I could not tell if it was going to be good different or bad different.
It was bad different.
Jessica Stanley was waiting for me in the car park.
"OI Trailer Trash! You think that you can get away with talking to Eric! He's my boyfriend. It's not like he would go for you anyway." Jessica then proceeded to grab a clump of my hair and slam me into a wall. Pain shot through my body as I crumbled to the ground. She then slammed one of her leather boots into the stomach and I lay there, feeling as though I was about to throw up my breakfast.
Jessica then crouched down and whispered "If you even go near Eric again, you will get more than just a kick in the stomach" She turned on her heels and marched off to her boyfriend. Since when have I spoken to Eric? I don't talk to anyone, well not until recently when Edward and his family turned up.
After what had seemed like a lifetime, I hauled myself off of the concrete and glanced at the clock, it was 12.30pm. I had one more lesson until lunch so I slowly walked over to the Maths room.
As the bell ran to signify the start of lunch, I picked up my bag and walked into the canteen and sat at my usual table. My legs felt as though they were about to fail me and I was relived when I finally made it to my chair, I pushed what food had been dumped on the table to one side and I pulled out my homework.
I chanced a glance at the Cullen's table and I was surprised to find the table deserted.
Why weren't they at their table?
They couldn't have packed up and left? My heart rate increased rapidly at this thought and I started to hyperventilate.
Don't be stupid Bella! They're probably just ill or maybe a family crisis.
After I had calmed myself down and started to breath properly again, I picked up my books and bag and then slowly rose to my feet, clutching my stomach, I started on my way to biology,
Walking through the crowded corridors and the usual happened, I had paper thrown at my head and names called at me but I just took a deep breath then pushed my way through the crowd, just hoping that Edward would be sitting in his seat, but my hopes fell when I reached the classroom and found his seat empty.
Why do I care so about if Edward is here or not?
I'm such an idiot.
I reached my seat and tilted my head forwards so that my hair covered my face; this was my attempt to block everything out. Mr Banner was mumbling something about blood cells and blood types. All I could think of was that today was Friday. Phil would be back today, I couldn't remember if anything was damaged or moved or gone. I had left the house in perfect condition but Phil would find something and blame it on me.
The bell rang and I made my way out of school and towards Mrs Beed's house. The sun, along with my good mood had disappeared from this morning and the sun had been replaced with the rain, I pulled up my hood on my jumper but this was only a very thin jumper and the wind was bitter and I was soon shivering severely.
I reached Mrs Beed's house and knocked on the door.
"Afterno- Bella! Oh my you're freezing!" Mrs Beed exclaimed and she took hold of my hand and led me, once again into her living room, she pulled the blanket that was thrown over the sofa and wrapped it round me.
Tay ran over to me and then climbed into my lap and gently laid his head on my chest and soon enough, Tay was snoring ever so quietly and I couldn't help but laugh.
"Tay's had a long day" Mrs Beed stated. I gave her a confused look and she continued. "With him being so full of energy this morning, we went to the park, and we had ice cream. You know, you're probably the best big sister he could ask for, and he is very lucky to have you." She smiled slightly.
"He's the best little brother I could ever want." I said, stroking Tay's hair. "We better get going now, Phil will be wondering where we are." I pulled off the blanket and held a sleeping Tay close, he was going to freeze, and he only had a thin jumper, like me.
"Take the blanket with you, I don't want Tay getting ill" she said with a smile and I wrapped the blanket round his sleeping form and then we started on our way home.
I was walking up the drive way and I could smell the alcohol from the porch. I ran into the house and straight up the stairs.
