Chapter 7: BPOV

Damn cell phone, I thought.

I broke off the wonderful kiss between Edward and I, and grabbed my cell phone out of my pocket. I looked at the caller ID.

"I don't recognize the number." I said, and barely noticed the looks I was getting from Edward's family.

"Hello?" I asked into the phone.

"Hello, is this Isabella Swan?" A mans voice asked.

"This is her." I said, worried.

"Ms. Swan, I wish I didn't have to tell you this, but James Kendall, your ex-husband, has escaped from our jail. It appears as if he has an outside helper, maybe two, but we are unsure of they may be. He killed three of our guards last night, and the only idea of where he is heading is Seattle, where he bought a plane ticket to Seatac." The man said, regret in his voice.

"What!?!" I exclaimed in disbelief.

"I'm sorry ma'am, I wish it wasn't true." He said.

"Oh my gosh," And my world went black.

"Emmett!!! Get me another blanket, her skin is chilled." I heard a motherly voice say.

"Mom?" I asked groggily. I felt as if weights were pressing down on my body, and everything felt cold.

"No sweetie, it's Esme." Esme?

Everything hit me like a wrecking ball, the phone call, James escaping, Edward's house. I realized that the weight was four thick blankets covering me as I lay on the couch, and I had a massive headache.

Edward was sitting right next to the couch, holding one of my hands. His warm hand felt good against my cold fingers. "Edward, what happened?"

"My love you fainted. I was hoping you could tell us." Edward said, concern coating his velvet voice.

I bolted up on the couch, the blankets falling away from my upper body. "James." I whispered, and I wasn't sure if anyone heard me.

"Bella, what about him?" Edward asked, confused.

"He escaped. I have to go. It's dangerous, he's on his way here." I was balling up the blankets at my feet, trying to untangle myself. I dragged one foot out, but the other one caught in my rush, and Edward's arm grabbed me.

"Slow down my love. Where do you think your going?"

"I have to get away from here. He's on his way, here, to Seattle. I have to hide, he'll kill me Edward. And anyone I know to get to me." I said, desperation in my voice as I struggled against his grip. "Alice." I said as I thought of people I knew. He would get her, too.

I was too wrapped up in my thoughts to be aware of everyone in the room. Emmett and Carlisle were discussing something in hushed tones. Esme had left the room abruptly, and Rosalie was no where to be seen.

"Bella, where will you go?" Esme asked as she walked back in the room, cell phone in hand as she looked intently at the screen.

My mind got to work. It had to be out of Washington, James would surely find me if I stayed here. And I had to take Alice with me, it wasn't safe for her, either. I had no where to go, but she did.

"Las Vegas. Alice's half sister lives there with her family. They would let us stay there." I said, looking around for my cell phone. I found it on the coffee table next to where I was on the ground. I quickly pressed the number two and send.

Alice answered after three rings. "Hello." Her voice was groggy, like she just woke up.

"Alice, James escaped out of jail, we have to get away from Seattle." I said in a rush.

"What!" Alice was fully alert now. In the back ground I heard a male voice say, "Alice sweet pea, what's wrong?"

"Alice," I said, ignoring the voice, "I was thinking we should go to your sister's, Autumn, house. James never knew you had a sister." I could hear her shuffling around, and the man's voice kept asking what's wrong.

"That's a good idea. I'll give her a call. Where are you?" She asked.

"I'm at Edward's parents house. But I'm going home right now to pack. Who is that in the background?"

"Oh, that's Jasper, the guy I told you about last night. Anyways, it doesn't matter. I'll be at your house in forty five minutes. Bye." She hung up the phone, and I just sat frozen. Edward disappeared from my side some time during my phone call. Esme was on the phone, sounding like she was arguing.

I got up, careful of the blankets this time. Out the window it was dark, and the clock on my phone read nine o'clock.

Esme hung up her phone and said, "I got you a family four pack to Vegas, that leaves at twenty after midnight. It was the best deal I could get. The reservations are in Edward's name."

"Oh Esme you didn't have to." I said.

"Yes I did. I haven't seen Edward happy since before he found out he was adopted. You make him happy, and he's only know you for a day. That means something." She gave me a hug, then left the room as Edward walked in.

"Come on Bella, we got to go." I walked over to him, grabbing my coat, not bothering to put it on. I was too numb to feel the cold as we went into the cold night.

He ushered me into the car, and ran around to the driver's side. He drove faster than before, which I didn't think was possible, and got to my house in record time.

"Pack whatever your hand touches. I have to go and pack myself, but I'll be back soon. I promise my love." He leaned over and opened the door at the same time he kissed me quickly on the lips.

"Why do you have to pack?" I asked.

"I'm going with you, and there is nothing you can say to stop me. Now please go, Bella. I'll be back." He just about pushed me out the car. I stumbled out, and shut the door. He sped off down my street, and I just about ran to the front door. My hand was shaking as I stuck the key in the lock, and I threw open the door.

I was more hesitant to enter though. There is no way he can be here already, Bella, calm down, I thought over and over to myself.

I reached over to the light switch, flicking it on without crossing the threshold. The entrance was empty, as I knew it should be, but my mind was nagging me that I should be careful.

I walked slowly into the front room, and I shut the door behind me. I made my way to my room, turning on lights as I went. I quickly packed all that I needed, throwing anything into my blue rolling bag.

"Bella?" I jumped at the sound of the voice in my house, even a small scream escaped my lips, but I quickly relaxed as I realized it was Edward's. "You left the door unlocked." He explained as he walked over to my dresser and grabbed a handful of clothes and threw them into the suitcase.

"I think I'm good." I said, zipping the zipper closed, and Edward lifted it off the bed, carrying it downstairs. I went into my office, and placed my laptop into its case, then I headed downstairs too. Edward was standing in my living room by the window, peaking out ever so often.

I just stood in the doorway, looking at Edward, until I heard Alice's Porches coming up the road. Her car squealed to a stop right in front of my house, behind Edward's Volvo. Edward grabbed my bag, and I carried my laptop out to the car. I put my bags in the trunk as Edward went to get his bag.

Once it was all back there, I went to the side door, opened it, and found that same blonde haired man I had seen at the party in the passenger seat.

"Hello, I'm Jasper Whitlock." He said with a hint of a southern accent. He got out and moved the seat forward so I could get in the backseat. Edward followed, and once Jasper was in the car, Alice sped off.

No one spoke, and I stared at the window as the bright lights of Seattle faded behind the yellow car. We made it to the airport at ten after ten. Edward went to get the tickets while Alice explained the story of Jasper. Apparently he wasn't going to let her go alone to Las Vegas when she was in danger.

The wait at the airport was stressful, as I nervously sat next to Edward in the seats by out gate. Jasper had his arm around Alice, who seemed keyed up too, and he was soothing her with soft words in her ear. Edward was doing the same with me, but it had little effect on either of us.

When our flight was finally called, we boarded and the two and a half hour flight began. We all sat together in the four seats in the middle of the plane, Alice and I in the middle.

I fell asleep on Edward's shoulder ten minutes in to the flight; I don't even think that the seatbelt sign ever went off. But, after what felt like two seconds later, Edward was shaking, me awake.

Alice was dead on her feet, as we collected our baggage, and Edward went to rent a car. Of course he came back with a sports car that I didn't know the name of.

I was awake as we drove down the bright street. People were wild on the street, and the traffic was a bad as Seattle at rush hour. Alice had told Edward where to go before she fell asleep again.

It wasn't hard to find Autumn's house, it was about a mile away from the heart of Vegas. The boys grabbed our luggage as Alice and I made our way up to the front door. Alice rang the door bell, then banged on the door when that took too long.

The front porch light came on, and the door opened slightly, then after a second, all the way.

"Alice, what are you doing here?"

Please REVIEW!!!! And any ideas, please PM, or email them to me. i'll try to get them in here!!!
