Alice barged in the room. That made me happy. It wasn't me that made him stop, just Alice. That was wonderful...Wait what! Since when did I like Emmett? "Bella, why can't I see you or Emmett?" she asked quickly.
I smirked. "Maybe you're going blind."
"That's not what I...Why are you and Emmett in bed together? I expected Edward not his brother." Oh man. What was I doing. I really hope Edward wasn't here. It would hurt him so much if he saw what Emmett was thinking. I didn't want to hurt him. I still loved him.
So am I still waiting for this world to stop hating. Can't find a good reason. Can't find hope to believe in.
Thankfully my cell rang before I had to answer. I grabbed it off the nightstand. Why was someone calling me at 5 in the morning? What happened? I hugged my knees up to my chest as I answered. "Bella… you n-need to come t-to La Push...S-Someone k-killed B-B-Billy." Sam choked out. No. No. It was B...He couldn't...That couldn't...Not Billy. He was more of a father than Charlie ever was. Billy couldn't leave me too.
"H-How?"
"It...Some...I..." I heard muffled talking and shuffling.
"Hi Bella. Sam can't talk at the moment. We really need you to come down. S-Something really...Just come down with one of your bloodsuckers." Emily said in a tiny broken voice.
"We'll be there soon." I hung up and walked over to the closet. I wasn't sure when I had actually stood. My head was spinning out of control. "Emmett I need you to come down to La Push with me." I dressed in a grey jacket with black jeans and flats.
"I can't go there." he retorted as I walked out.
"They wont attack. You don't have to. Alice can you?"
Before she could reply Emmett was by my side. "No! I'll do it." He picked me up bridal style and began running. I wrapped my arms around his neck.
"Thank you. You didn't have to." I really didn't expect him to. I guess I underestimated him. The nights cool air was blowing lightly in my face. It was weird to be running with a vampire again. I had gotten use to riding on a werewolves back.
"I told you I would be here for you. No matter what it's for." He wiped my face of the tears. I wasn't sure when I had started crying. I sniffed and rested my head on his shoulder.
"You'll be an awesome second father to my kid or kids." I told him. A large smile appeared on his face.
"Where am I going?" he asked once we passed the treaty line.
"Go straight 3 blocks then take a left. Jake's is the last house." I said softly. He sighed. I had a feeling he wasn't to keen on seeing Rosalie as I was with seeing Jake but I still loved him. I couldn't just not show up. No matter how much I didn't want to be there.
Emmett stopped once the house was in distance. He placed me on my feet but took my hand. All of the pack was outside. Jake sat next to Rosalie on the porch. I had never seen him so sad. His eyes met mine and he stood. I met him halfway and he pulled me into a tight hug. God, I missed him. After a moment I pulled back from him. "What happened?" I crossed my arms over my stomach. His eyes focused on my baby bump and more pain added to them. He was probably thinking the same as I was; Billy would never see his grandchild.
"We left for a few hours and...When we got back...He was in his room...Dead." He walked back over to Rosalie and put his head in his hands. I glared at her as she wrapped her arm around him. I should be the one comforting him not her. Emmett put his hand on the small of my back. I felt myself calming some. He had Jasper's power when it came to me. I couldn't be mad when he touched me.
I turned my attention to Sam and Emily. They both looked sympathetic. I guess Sam understood to a small extinct how I felt. I knew he never wanted to hurt Leah. He loved her. It wasn't his fault.
"Why did I need to bring Emmett?" I asked quietly.
"We wanted to see if he could get a scent. The le...Rosalie couldn't." he told me. I was glad to see he still didn't like her. It made me feel better actually.
I grabbed Emmett's hand and led him into the house. The front room looked the same. We continued to the bedroom but I stayed in the hallway. I couldn't go in.
Billy's chair was broken in half. One piece hanging out the broken window and the other half on what was left of his bed. There was blood covering the walls and Billy...Billy was on the floor. His throat looked like it was ripped out by claws. His arm and leg was disconnected. There was blood coming from his eyes. His wide eyes. he saw who killed him. He probably tried to scream but no one could hear him. I wonder how long he had to suffer before he died.
I leaned against the wall for support. I watched as Emmett walked slowly around the room. I understood why Rosalie couldn't go in here to get a scent.. Emmett looked like he was in pain. His eyes were pitch black now. He took a few quick sniffs and came out closing the door behind him.
"Are you ok?" I whispered. His eyes met mine and slowly went back to there topaz color.
He walked to me and wrapped his arms around my waist.
"How are you?" He ignored my question. I simply nodded. He led me outside. There were faint sirens getting closer. I guess the cops were necessary even though they were pointless. "I couldn't smell anything. It was like..." He shrugged.
"Like no one was there?" Jared asked. Emmett nodded. "Same for us." Then who killed him! I wanted to shout. I wanted answers but I wouldn't take it out on them. They didn't know anything either. Rosalie came over to where we were standing.
"Will there be a fight if I bring him home?" She was looking more at me than Emmett who automatically said yes. I looked over at Jake who hadn't moved from the spot on the porch. He couldn't stay here. I didn't want him at a hotel no matter how nice it was. i wanted him close to me even if he wasn't with me.
"No. It's fine." I turned my attention to the ground.
"Thank you." She walked away. Three cop cars came to a stop on the curve with more sirens following. Charlie was the first to arrive. He glared at me as he went to Jake. I cowered back into Emmett's side. He wrapped his arms around me.
"Don't let him get to you, babe. The babies...Or baby is...are a good thing. It's not your fault he can't see." he said softly in my ear. He really did know how to calm me. I still didn't want to be here though.
"I don't feel good. Lets go." I waved quickly to the guys then started toward the forest. Emmett picked me up once we were out of sight and started running. The morning's air helped some. The moment we were up in my room I ran to the bathroom slamming the door I puked and peed then puked again I sat on the rug by the tub. I wasn't sure if I puked because of morning sickness or from what I saw. I couldn't get the image out of my head. All I could see was his face twisted in horror. I didn't want to see that but I couldn't stop thinking of that. It was so... Tears started cascading down my face. I had planned to call him this morning. to check on him and make sure he knew I was ok. Damn it! I didn't even get to say goodbye. What if he was worried about me? He died not knowing rather I was ok or not. if Jake would be ok with Rosalie. How his grandchild would turn out. It was so unfair. I knew he was going to die sooner or later but not now.
"Baby are you alright?" Emmett called through the door. Despite how I felt my heart still fluttered.
"I'll be right out." I stood and went to the sink. My eyes were red and puffy. Tears were covering my cheeks. I looked terrible but I felt worse. I brushed my hair and washed my face before going to my room. I laid next to Emmett on my bed. "Hold me." I whispered. He obeyed immediately pulling me to his chest and locking his arms around me. I looked up at him and kissed him. He responded instantly. I opened my mouth once I felt his tongue on my lip. It was wonderful kissing Emmett. He made all the bad things in my life seem minor...Well almost. Some things wouldn't be fixed with a kiss but it helped. He made me so light headed I could hardly think.
"Get some sleep Babe. You'll need it."
An: Yes I know Charlie wouldn't act that way but just go along with it. PLEASE REVIEW!!! X_X
