~Chapter 6~

Cry for the Reasons

BPOV

I look out my window again to see the police car just at the curb, watching for anything that was suspicious.

The male police officer, Seth Clearwater, was in the car. His sister Leah Clearwater, the female police officer, was downstairs with Renée, trying to comfort her the best she could.

Julie was sulking in her room. I had been in there earlier, but she told me that she needed to think. So, I left and let her think.

Tears begin to form in my eyes again.

I wipe my tears away, sit on my bed, and stare at my picture of my father, Charlie.

The memory of what happened today came flooding into my mind once again.


--Flashback--

~2 hours ago~

"Mom? What's wrong? Are you okay? Please answer me. What happened?" I ask frantically.

Our mother then looks into our eyes, then buries her face in her hands again.

We about giving up asking her, but then she pointed toward the kitchen.

"I'm sorry if the sight will frighten you," she says in a shaky voice. "I'm sorry."

I get up and go into the kitchen.

What I saw, I wasn't actually prepared for at all.

There, I saw Charlie and Phil lying on the on the ground covered in blood.

I gasp, stumble back into the living room, and go right to my mother.

I try to stifle a cry, but I couldn't anymore and just broke down.

I know Julie must have been curious, 'cause she then gets up and starts heading toward the kitchen.

I was about to warn her and tell her she shouldn't go in there.

But, my mother stopped me.

We here a gasp from the kitchen and know it was Julie's.

She runs back in and doesn't even get to us.

She collapses on the floor and our mother and I rush to her side to help her up.

We practically stayed like that for a long while.

After we calmed down and settled into the couch, our mother starts speaking to the police officers.

"What are your names again? I didn't catch them before."

Her voice was sad. Very, very sad and depressed.

The male police officer starts speaking, "I'm Seth Clearwater and this is my sister, Leah Clearwater."

Our mother nods then asks, "Can you tell us what there is to do next?"

Leah then says, "We would like to stay here with you three for a few days and make sure the murder doesn't show up any time soon."

Our mother nods again and says, "We would like that very much."

Leah and Seth smile.

I then think of two things and decided to speak them out.

"But now….there are two questions. Who is the killer and, why was dad here anyways?"

--End of Flashback--

Of course, neither question has been answered.

I had called Alice about 35 minutes ago and told her we wouldn't be going to the basketball game.

Julie and I had decided that we were too depressed to even get out of the house.

I was even thinking of staying home all next week from school.

I hear a knock on my door.

I look over to see Julie standing threshold.

She was sad and worried and depressed and, all in all, in pain.

She walks over to my bed, falls onto my bed, and starts sobbing.

She puts her head on my shoulder and cries more. I start to smooth her hair, trying to comfort her.

"It'll be okay Julie. It will be. I promise," I say in the strongest voice I could give. It sounded strained though."

"Bella. I'm scared and I miss dad and Phil. It's so awful Bella. It's so awful!" She really breaks on the last word.

I start to cry.

Through my sobs, I say, "Julie. I know it's awful. But, it's meant to happen. Whoever did it, was awfully stupid. Because when I see them, I'll beat their ass."

Julie laughs a little, but not enough to show she is happy.

"Bella. I miss them."

"I know Julie. I know. I do too."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

JPOV(Jasper)

When Alice told me about Bella and Julie not coming to the basketball game and that they sounded sound, I suggested we go visit them.

Of course my beautiful Alice agreed and immediately started plan everything out from the game to the visit.

Alice had said something about beating the crap out Jacob Black, which I know I'll very much enjoy.

Emmett suddenly comes up to me and swings his right arm over my shoulders.

"So, dude," he says. "Beating up Jacob Black is still on for tonight, right?"

I nod. "Yeah."

I smiles widely and says, "Awesome! Can't wait! When is it?"

"During half time. So, Steven and I can come to. Steven really wanted to do this for Bella and Julie."

"And that's who we're doing it for."

I grin. "Yeah."

We all gather into Emmett's jeep and talk about the game.

Of course, we suspect that we'd win and all.

I don't blame anybody in this vehicle to bet we'd win. We're awesome at playing basketball.

When we start passing Julie and Bella's house, we see a police car.

I started to get the feeling that something was terribly wrong.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EPOV

Emmett slows down and parks on the other side of the street.

After he parks the jeep and cuts the engine, we all jump out.

When we got to the other side of the side of the road, the police officer in the car got out and walked over to us. He then says, "Hello. I'm Seth Clearwater. Who might you 6 be?"

I speak then. "I'm Edward Cullen and these are my friends. We're here to visit our other friends, Bella and Julie Swan."

Seth nods and says, "You may go in. But, my sister Leah will stop you and ask to see your ids most likely."

We all nod and walk toward the door and knocked.

We heard some mumbling, then somebody opened the door.

It was another police officer. She asks, "Who are you all?"

Alice then speaks. "I'm Alice Cullen and these are my friends. We're here to visit Julie and Bella Swan. They're our friends."

She nods, but then says, "I need to see some identification first."

We all get out our driver's license and showed her.

She nods again, hands them back, then says, "Okay. They should be upstairs. But please, please do be careful around them. Okay?"

We shake our heads yes and start walking up the stairs.

We come to a door and hear Julie and my dearest Bella.

"Bella. I'm scared and I miss dad and Phil. It's so awful Bella. It's so awful!" Julie says to Bella, and the last word breaks. Is she crying?

I then hear Bella start crying.

Bella says, "Julie. I know it's awful. But, it's meant to happen. Whoever did it, was awfully stupid. Because when I see them, I'll beat their ass."

Julie laughs a little, but it didn't sound very happy.

"Bella. I miss them."

"I know Julie. I know. I do too."

I start to get extremely curious and knock on the door.

Julie and Bella jump up in surprise.

They look at us and their eyes widen.

Their eyes were red and swollen.

Alice and Rosalie run over and ask them what happened.

We all came and sat around them.

Bella then asks Julie, "Julie. I think we should tell them."

Julie nods and Bella starts to tell the story.

Apparently, somebody had murdered their dad and step dad.

They were so sad and I was angry.

I wanted to kill whoever had killed their father and step dad.

I look over at Steven.

I then see the homicidal look in his eyes.

He was angry.

I knew I had the same look in my eyes.

It made sense too.

I loved Bella and I plan to tell her as soon as possible.

No matter what gets in the way.


Yeah. My original idea was that only Phil dies, but I don't think it would've been that big. Because Charlie is a bigger character and all. So, I decided on both. Yeah. I came up with this when I was getting myself some cereal. Smart, aren't I?

Do ya love it?
Do ya hate it?
Do ya love me?
Do ya hate me?
Just tell me the truth before I hurt ya.

Review!!!!!
