I woke up the next day realising I was in the guest bedroom that is pretty much mine. I got up off the bed and got dressed, then I went down the stairs. Today was the day that Ms. Stoogal was coming back to take me to the Childrens Home.
"Good morning Edward." Esme said when she saw me walking down the stairs.
"Good morning Esme." I said with a sigh.
"Its going to be ok, Edward." She said trying to make me feel better.
I just nodded my head and walked into the living room, waiting for Alice to come down stairs. I turned on the T.V. and looked for something to watch.
"MORNING EDWARD." Alice yelled making me jump.
"Morning Alice." I said. then I got an idea."Hey Alice?" I asked getting her attention."Wanna play cards?" I asked.
"Sure, what game?" She asked.
"I don't know." I said thinking of a game.
"Oh, I know lets play 'Go Fish.'" Alice suggested excitedly bouncing in her seat.
"Ok." I said. After 5 games of 'Go Fish', Alice winning 3 out of 5 of those games, and 2 games of 'War' there was a knock on the door.
Esme answered the door while Alice and I went upstairs to get my stuff. When we got down stairs Ms. Stoogal was there. We both sighed and walked into the living room.
"Good morning Edward." Ms. Stoogal said.
"Morning." I said while looking down.
"I'm going to put your things in the car while you bye to Alice and Esme." she said.
"Ok." I said.
When Ms. Stoogal was out side Esme had me in her arms hugging me."Edward." She said."You be good for Ms. Stoogal and the people at the Childrens , and remember we love you." Esme said with tears running down her cheeks. I reached up and hugged her back tightly. Then I turned around and was tackled to the ground, by Alice."I love you Edward and don't forget us." She cried. " I wont and I love you too." I told her.
"Alice you need to let Edward up cause he has to leave now." Esme said. Alice nodded and letme stand back up. Once I was up Ms. Stoogal came back in.
"Edward, its time to leave now." She said. I sighed and nodded my head. We walked out to the car, got in and started to drive away.
***************************** A WEEK AT THE CHILDRENS HOME********************************
I was sitting on one of the swings at the Childrens Home thinking about all the things thats happened to me. When Devon walked up and started picking on me. Ever since I got here a week ago devon hasn't been very nice.
"Hey look guys its the mute kid." Devon said while all his friends laughed.
"Maybe we should get him to talk." Devon said with an evil glint in his eyes.
I stood up and tried to walk away when I was pulled back and thrown to the they started to beat me up and I eventually passed out from the pain but not before I saw a pair of gold eyes.
Bella(POV)
Jasper,Emmett,Rose,and I were all hanging out,getting ready to go hunting. We walked past the Childrens Home when we heard someone talking, it sounded like they were picking on someone. Jasper and I went to go look and when we got there we saw some kid beating up another kid and his friends helping and I ran over there.
"Hey what are you doing?" I yelled. They stopped what they were doing.
"Nothing just trying to get the mute kid to talk." One of them answered.
"So you thought it would be ok to beat him up?" Jasper asked in disbelief.
"How old are you?" I asked.
"9" the kid who was beating up that little boy said.
"How old is he?" I asked while pionting to the little boy on the ground.
"He's 6." One of them said. My eyes grew huge.
I walked over to the little boy to make sure he was ok. He had tears running down his face and blood every where. He was barely breathing and his eyes were closing. Without thinking I carefully picked him up, when I did he let out a whimper and more tears fell from his eyes.
"Its ok I'm going to help you." I told him.
"Bella I'm going to go and tell someone who works here what happened." Jasper said.
"Ok I'm going to take him to Carlisle." I told him.
"Ok." He said.
As I was leaving the Childrens Home I walked into Emmett and Rose.
"Bella what happened?" Rose asked.
"Some kids beat him up just cause he wouldn't talk." I said with distaste.
"How old were they?" Emmett asked.
"10 years old." I spat.
"And he's like what 5 or 6 years old?" Rose asked.
"He's 6. The kids all call him the mute kid." I said sadly. "I mean what the hell is that? They think just because he wont talkand hes younger they can hurt him? Thats just sick." I said discusted.
"I'm going to call Carlisle and let him know you are coming." Emmett said while taking out his phone. I nodded my head and took off, Rose and Emmett right behind me.
"That poor little boy I hope he's going to be ok." Rose said.
