Pills Chapter 7

?POV

I had never run so fast before in my life. The feeling of the chase was unlike anything I had ever felt. Sure we had all played around, but we had never had any motivation to really let loose. Now we had the motivation. The leech ahead of us was vaulting from tree to tree trying to escape. He was only making himself dizzy, cause it was not bothering us at all. I could smell his scent from miles away, although I could also smell the bloodsucker that was still back in the field. He though he had gotten past us without us knowing. What a dumbass. Just cause we could not see him did not mean we did not know he was there. We all knew he was back with the girl, but he was not running. We were after the one who was.

It was only a matter of time before we caught up to him. I could hear Sam telling me to circle back and make sure that we kept track of the girl and the other vamp. I was pissed. I really wanted to get myself a piece of the cocky bloodsucker who though he could just waltz into our territory and hurt innocent people. I was forced to follow the Alpha's orders, so I turned around and sped back to the unlikely couple who were huddled together in the cover of the trees.

It really sucked that all of our thoughts were linked when we were in wolf form. I had heard things about my brothers that I had never really wanted to know. But there were times when it was really useful. This was one of those times. As I approached the pair, I could hear Jacob's voice in my head, growling fiercely, because as soon as my eyes landed on the human girl, he recognized her.

Its Bella. And that fucking piece of shit Cullen. What is he doing back here?

We all knew about Bella and what had happened after her vampire boyfriend had left her alone in the woods. Sam's thoughts of her lying catatonic in the dirt haunted each of us, and Jacob was rightly furious to see that he had returned. But I could not pay attention to Jacob's ranting or I would never be able to do my job and make sure that these two stayed put. I quickly phased before I came into their sight and threw on the shorts I had strapped to my ankle before approaching them.

"Hey. If you could just do me a favor and stay put for a bit, that would be great. We should have the other parasite under control in a few. Thanks!" I yelled before turning on my heel and phasing mid-jump. I loved the way it felt when my shorts ripped off my body as it turned into its true wolf form. My paws were flying over the dirt as I tried to catch up to my brothers. I could hear the metallic screeching of teeth ripping through the impenetrable skin of the vampire, and knew that I would not make it back to be a part of the action.

There were pieces of the leech scattered all over the ground as I entered the clearing. Sam and Embry had phased into human form to start a fire so we could completely dispose of the monster. I could hear Jacob's annoyingly loud thoughts as soon as he realized I had returned.

Did he say why he was back? Was he touching her? Does she remember him?

His lips were pulled back in a snarl as he pawed at the ground, no doubt imagining Cullen's face in place of the dirt.

He was touching her. She did seem to remember him. I did not stay long enough to find out why he had returned.

I quickly broadcasted my thoughts to him, hoping that he would be able to control his anger and not go running back to them and rip him limb from limb. If Cullen was back, we needed to let Bella make the decision as to whether she wanted him to stay or not.

BOPV

He was back. And I remembered him. Everything about him. I could not bring myself to let him go. I had my face crushing into his chest, greedily taking in his scent. They say that the sense of smell is the sense most tied to memory. I had never really experienced it, but I could now say that it was true. As I breathed in his smell of basil, lime and evergreen, I could remember ever moment I had spent with Edward.

I finally pulled my nose from his cool stone chest and raised my eyes to his face. He was looking down at me, his golden eyes rimmed in onyx. I did not realize I had been holding my breath until I swayed in his arms, my lungs burning. His face morphed into his crooked smile that I remembered so well and my heart beat against my sternum so hard I was sure it would be bruised.

"You came back." I whispered.

"I had to." He replied in the same quite tone.

"What took you so long?"

He looked broken as he debated what to say. "I asked Alice not to look for you. I had hoped that by now you would have moved on, found someone like Newton to love." He sneered. "But I was weak. I could not help myself and I asked Alice to check on you. When I saw you, a shell of the beautiful and intelligent girl you once were, I new I could not stay away any longer."

"So you only came back because I was broken?" I said, my voice betraying my anger. He had not returned because he missed me, wanted me. He only came back because he felt guilty for what had happened to me when he left.

"No Bella, you misunderstand me. I knew that I had to come back and try and fix what I had done. I could not be sure that you would even want me back when you could remember what had happened. I only knew that I had to try and bring back the girl who loved me." He pleaded, dropping to his knees and wrapping his arms around my hips. I could feel his cool breath against my abdomen, and even in my anger my body responded to him. Arousal I had not felt in months warmed my belly and my heart stuttered in my chest. I could feel his smile against my skin and was furious that he could tell how he was affecting me.

"Stop it, just stop." I pleaded as I pulled myself from his embrace. "Were you the one who was changing my pills?" I demanded.

"Yes. Carlisle helped me research what kind of drugs they were giving you. We hoped that you had recovered enough to be able to function without all the medication. Dr. Miller would never have weaned you off the drugs, they were too important to her study." He said cryptically. How did he know about Dr. Miller?

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Dr. Miller is not even a doctor. I have no idea how Charlie let you get involved with such a quack. She has no background to be able to prescribe you the kinds of drugs she was. They had horrible side effects, and Carlisle found some major interactions from mixing the ones she had. If we had not stopped them when we did, you could have suffered long term liver and heart damage." He said, clawing at the dirt in his anger.

Our conversation was interrupted by the sound of thumping feet and snarls. I forgot my anger and launched myself at Edward, knowing he would protect me above all else. A bare-chested giant appeared from the trees.

"Hey. If you could just do me a favor and stay put for a bit, that would be great. We should have the other parasite under control in a few. Thanks!" He said quickly before returning back into the trees.

I pulled myself from Edward's embrace, knowing that if I allowed myself to continue touching him I would not have the strength to push for the answers I needed.

A/N: So who do you think was the unknown POV?? I would love to hear your thoughts. Going to start to put subliminal messages in here to review. Please, it is the nice thing to do. :)
