Last time...
"Guys, she's stable. You can come see her." Carlisle said, peeking his head before we all walked in two her room.

Chris's POV.
We walked in and gasped at the scene. Belle was laying on the bed, pale. She actually could blend into the white sheets. I quickly walked over to her, avoiding her bandaged hand. I picked her other hand up and sat by her bed. She turned and looked at me, smiling softly.
"Hey Belle." I whispered.
She smiled hesitantly at me before her eyes looked over at the seven people standing in the door way.
"Hi Belle, how are you feeling?" Carlisle asked.
"I'm okay I guess." She said, eyeing them carefully.
I bet she was wondering the same thing as me. Who where these people?
"Belle, can you tell me what happened?" Carlisle asked.
Belle looked over at me and I nodded, I just felt like I could trust them. I don't know why.
"I guess. Well um...My foster father, he...I was late from school, and I didn't make dinner fast enough and then I felt dizzy and dropped a plate, but I couldn't clean it up fast enough so he got upset and hit me a bit." Belle whispered.
"Well where did you get the burn?" Carlisle asked politely.
"I forgot to turn the stove off, and I had a pan sitting there so he took my hand and placed it on the pan, that's when Chris found me." Belle whispered, looking at me.
"Okay, go on." Carlisle said.
"Well he came in and kind of hit my foster father..." Belle said giving my hand a quick squeeze. "Which you should have never done, he could have hurt you Chris." Belle said, tears forming in her eyes.
"I had to do something." I whispered.
"But throwing your fist into his face was not what you should have done, I could have lost you." Belle said as the tears spilled down her face.
I wrapped my arms around her as she shook against me, trying to comfort her.
"Nothing would have separated me from you. But how in the world are you worried about me when you just collapsed on the street?" I asked, a smile was playing at my lips.
"I...I don't want to lose you Chris. Your all I have...I can't lose you." Belle whispered.
I gripped her tighter then, I was not going to leave her at all.
"Belle, I'll always be with you." I whispered.
She closed the space between the two of us and just gripped me, crying.
"Well, I hate to break this up but after these injuries, I'm surprised you haven't been to the hospital before. These are very serious, but it does account for what Mike did to you." Carlisle said, walking over to a x-ray board. "You had internal bleeding, it had gotten extremely bad. If Chris, Emmett, and Rose hadn't been there to get you to the hospital, well...You may not have been alive anymore. Your wrist is broken and burned, and you have a gash in your side from a sharp object."
I looked at her confused, I knew I shouldn't have stayed after school!
"Belle, did this all happen tonight?" I whispered, trying not to involve the others.
She looked up at me, her eyes sparkling with tears again.
"I'm sorry Chris, I didn't listen to your warning." Belle whispered.
I sighed, holding her tighter.
"Belle, I know this is going to be hard to listen too, but, have you...Has Mike ever rapped you." Carlisle asked.
Everyone grew stiff at the moment, especaily the one named Rosalie. Belle looked down, new tears forming at her eyes. She slowly nodded, and I heard some gasps.
"How many times? And has he ever used inanimate objects?" Carlisle asked. "Like a knife or something sharp or blunt?"
Belle looked down, not wanting to say anything. I looked at her in horror. He didn't...I'm going to kill him if she says yes. Belle took a breath in and shook her head up and down slowly. I growled at the thought, making everyone look at me. I gave them a small smile and just looked at Belle.
"Why didn't you tell me?" I whispered, although the anger in my voice still showed.
She looked at me sadly.
"Because you would have killed him." She hissed.
I heard a chuckle and I looked over at the family as I saw the older one, I think his name is Emmett, whisper to the other two guys.
"He's not the only one." He whispered.
"Okay, who are you?" I asked, I was tiered of waiting on them to spit it out.
They looked at Belle and I and then at Carlisle.
"Well, there is a reason that we care so much and why our entire family is here. You see, we lost two people that where very important to us. My oldest children, Emmett and Rosalie, had to give up their kids." Carlisle said, looking at Belle and I.
"Okay and what does that have to do with us?" I asked hesitantly.
"Their names where and are, Christopher Luke McCarty Cullen, and Liberty Belle Dawn Cullen."
That did it, I looked at Belle before I fainted.
