Tonight I was supposed to be going over to Ashton's house and now that I had my friends back I had half a mind to cancel on him; and go out with them. But I couldn't do that to him. I was just about to leave when I heard a knock. I walked to the door and pulled it open.

"Ashton, I thought I was coming to your place?" I said inviting him in.

"I sent you text that I was coming over here. My parents are having some problem today," He smiled sadly, and I felt sympathy for him.

"So what do you want to do," I asked sitting my key back on their hook. He shrugged, and followed me into the kitchen. I was looking for something to cook, when Ashton called out my name.

"Bella…there's something that I need to tell you," He said uneasily. I was really starting to get worried about him. He walked around the counter, up to me, and took my hands into his. "Bella, I love you."

Time completely stopped. My mouth hung open in the air as my mind tried to process what he just said. It repeated itself in my head many many times. I could only stare. He loved me. Even when I was into him, it was a crush. I had only known the guy for what, three weeks? And here he was saying that he loved me.

"Bella?" he asked uncertainly, a bright smile on his face. God I didn't want to hurt him after he was so nice to me, but what could I do? I didn't want to lead him on. I slowly pulled my hands out of his and his smile faltered. I smiled kindly.

"Ashton, I'm sorry but I don't feel that way about you," I said as nicely as I could. He shook his head no.

"But that day in the parking, when we almost…we almost…" His voice trailed off. Oh! I forgot about that.

"Ashton, I know that almost happened, but that was when I had a crush on you. I liked you in that way then, but something else happened. I realized that you were just a friend to me. I like you as just a friend."

"But I don't want to be 'just friends'," He said, "I want- He stopped abruptly as if thinking about something. It was quiet for sometime as I continued to look at him worried.

"What does he have that I don't?" He asked looking down at the floor.

"What? Ashton, what are talking about? Who are you talking about?" I asked.

"YOU KNOW WHO THE HELL I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!!" He yelled making me flinch horribly. He was livid. I could see the rage in his eyes. I was scared. As I kept taking steps back, he took steps forward.

"Ashton calm down," I said trying to sooth him and myself.

"I won't calm down until you tell me."

"I don't who you're talking about. Tell me!"

"CULLEN!" He roared. I wanted to cry. I trusted him, and he turns to this. yelling at me. I swear he's about to hit me. But what did Edward have to do with this?

"What does Edward have to do with anything? We're not like that. We're lab partners, and maybe even friends." I said frantically.

"LIAR!" He bellowed pulling the dish rack from behind me on to the floor. All the dishes I washed shattering as they hit the tile. I screamed in horror; my eyes filled with tears.

"What do you want Ashton? What is wrong with you? We need to get you some help or to a doctor. You need help!" I said trying to think of some way to distract him. I had to get away, but how? How?! He smiled devilishly at me, and walked forward until my chest was pressed against his.

"Dear Bella, I need anyone but you," He said lovingly. His fingers ran down a strand of my hair, and down to my face where his knuckles brush my cheek. I resist the urge to cringe and push him away. I didn't want to anger him.

His face came closer to mine and he kissed me. It wasn't sweet and pleasant; it was forceful and angry. I couldn't help it this time; I shoved him away from me and gagged. When I realized what I did I looked up at him and saw fury. He grabbed my wrist and I screamed hitting his arm; struggling to get away.

"LET ME GO!" I screech, "Leave me the fuck alone!" He's squeezing so hard it hurts so badly. Of all times to forget about my safety classes now wasn't the best, but I was just drawing a blank. I jerked and jerked and jerk my arm free. I dashed for the door trying not to trip on the glass.

Then all off a sudden something slammed over my head and I fell. Everything was red. The last thing I heard was Ashton saying some kind of nonsense.

"Don't worry my sweet Bella. You may want to run now, but in time you'll realize how much you love me and we will be together forever, my precious. My precious." Then everything went black and I was no more…

It was the most bizarre called I had ever received. I was just watching the TV, thinking about Bella, when my phone rang. The number was private, but I answered it anyway.

"H'llo," I said lazily. For a few seconds I just heard breathing, but they began to speak.

"You will never see her again." They said I pulled the phone away from my ear and looked at it like it was the one saying crazy things. I put it back to my ear.

"Excuse me?" I said.

"She never loved you. She's always loved me and me alone. So stay out of our lives so we can be happy."

"Dude, you're off your rocker. Whatever your problem is, I don't care. You must have the wrong number. I was about to hang up when he said the most unexpected thing.

"I do not have the wrong number Edward Cullen. Leave us alone or you will regret it. She's not yours and she never was. She's mine!" Then they hung up. I just sat there frozen. Who the hell was that? I couldn't call back because the number was private.

It was completely dark; God how my head hurt. Where was I? My eyes were starting to adjust. I stood up and my body was totally aching all over.

"You're awake now," someone said quietly. One small light flickered on, and I saw Ashton. I ran to him and wrapped my arms around him.

"Ashton, where are we?" I asked. I looked at him and before I knew it he crushed his lips to mine. It was they were hard and hurtful. Then it all came back to me. The dishes crashing to the floor, the yelling, the pain in my head. Once again, I shoved him away from me, and spit in his face. It came so unexpectedly. He back-handed me and I fell to the hard concrete floor.

"You will love me." He said, "You will love me. Just give it time."

"Never!" I said glaring up at him in such hatred. He just chuckled and left me alone under my one little light. I had to get out of here. He's a psycho, a sicko, and a lunatic.
