Chapter 9:
The knight in silver Volvo
It was a beautiful evening here in Seattle; the girls were shopping for their date to the Spring Dance and were having a great time with each other except for one particular brunette who was sitting down on the bench outside of a dress shop with a small black book in her hand, flipping a page after a page with deep thought inside her head, oblivious to a pair of hazel eyes walked towards her way.
"Iris?..."
Iris startled at the voice calling her name and quickly closed the book as she turned to face the speaker, "Bella? What are you doing out here? Shouldn't you be in with Jessica and the others?" she asked, placing the book back inside her bag as she feel her slowly sitting next to her based on the sound of the wooden bench cracked at her body weight.
"I was but I'm getting tired of hearing their rating about what should wear and all that" shrugged the Swan as they both laughed at the thought and enjoying each other company as they watched the people passing by the shop with deep thought, "I think I see a new bookstore somewhere down the street" Bella suddenly spoke up as she looked thoughtfully at the said street, catching the other brunette thought as she recalled the event inside the black book in her bag.
Isn't this where Bella being attack by the thugs?
"I'll come with you" Iris blurted out instantly as she remember the incident that about to happen and slowly stood on her feet as they walked slowly to the said bookstore, ignoring the tingling feeling of someone watching behind their back.
I hope he's around here somewhere…
"Well… well… well… what we have here?"
"My… what beautiful ladies you are?"
"Want some company angels?"
They stopped beside each other as they gazed towards the upcoming thugs walking their way, blocking the path as she gently motioned Bella behind her with a glare on her face. Bella lightly tugged the edge of her deep blue jacket in fear as she could felt the shaking of her body behind her, "Bella…" she hissed, trying her best to block her view from the thugs as they back off from the ally into the shadows, "No matter what happen! Keep running! Don't look back!"
"But-"
"Just trust me on this" hissing slightly as she watched them taking a step closer with a sadistic laughed among themselves for their reward, "I'll hold them off"
"What's with the whispering about darlings? Don't you want us?"
"Yeah… we will make you feel so… good"
"Bella…!"
Bella whimpered in fear as she slowly back away from her friend, hesitantly to move when suddenly one of thug lugged towards her to catch her hand but blocked by Iris as she punched the guy face with her fist, "BELLA! RUN!"
"You dirty bitch"
Punch!
"Ugh!"
Iris fell down onto the dirty ally from his punch and hissed in pain for her bruised cheek with blood flowing from her cut lips as she felt the man hand touched her throat to choke her airway with a growl, "You good for nothing-!" tightened his hold as she gasped for air to breath…
Edward!...
Suddenly the sound of tyres screeching echoed inside the ally as the a pair of bright lights blinding their eyes. A silver Volvo drove itself towards the thugs rapidly before stopping with an angry Cullen coming out from the vehicle with glaring onyx eyes, "YOU'RE DEAD!"
Iris blinked to dismiss the blurriness of her eyes at the familiar voice entering her slipping consciousness and choked out his name as she struggled to be free from the man clutch, "E-Ed…w-ward…"
A punch hit the man faced causes him to lose his grip on the brunette throat as she fell down onto the ground, gasping for air to fill in her aching lungs as she watched him brutally beating the thugs with his anger in horror.
Edward!
"Get in the car, Iris!"
But-!
Abandoning the bloody thugs for her, Edward growled and instantly run to her with his vampire speed as he scooped her up into his arms in bridal style, heading towards the Volvo with human speed in case if they have audiences before heading toward the driver to start the engine. Edward tightened his grip on the wheel for the thought of her being harm or worse rape by the dirty thugs as a growl escaped from his lips before hitting the oil pedal and speeding his way from Seattle to Forks, oblivious to a pair of violet eyes gazing onto him in concern as she slowly facing the anger Cullen slightly in confused, "Edward?..." touching his cold hand gently for his anger as she felt him tensed in her touch.
"Just talk to me! Anything! Keep me distracted or I'll hunt that men down!"
Iris flinched slight at the coldness in his voice before withdrew her hand and looked down onto her laps as she bit her lips, not knowing what to say to ease his anger but couldn't help whispering the words coming through her minds at the moment with a soft voice, "I-I love you" causing the vampire beside her to release his grip on the wheel in shock before turning his amber gaze to her, "…What?"
A moment of silenced engulfed both of the couple before sudden sadistic chuckle escaped from her rosy lips as she shook her head amusedly, turning her attention to the scenery flashes out from the window, murmuring "Nothing…" as she ignored the eyes on her for the words before taking a glance on the near mirror for her newly bruised cheek and cut lips coming from the man punch, hissing slightly in pain as she frowned, "Well, that's going to leave a mark"
She's avoiding again…
"…Here. Let me have a look at those"
Edward turned his attention away from the road and tilted the brunette head up as he looked closely at the purple bruise adorned on her swollen cheek, caressing it gently with his cold hand to numb the pain away with concern and guilt flashed inside his molten golden eyes, "It's definitely going to leave a mark" he silently agreed and withdrew his hand back as he made a left turn, "Let go to my house and let Carlisle to have a look at those"
"Don't worry. Alice has it covered. She told your grandparent that you guys are having sleepover at our house tonight for the Spring Dance tomorrow"
"And my grandpa actually believes that?"
"Yes. Your grandpa simply agreed as he murmured something about friendship bond or girlie night"
"Oh… that just great" frowning as she crossed her arms against her chest, "My grandpa actually believe I would dance without sending my date to the hospital for break his toe?" earning a chuckle from the Cullen beside her as they pulled over in front of a large house build in the centre of the Forks forest.
"Come on"
Edward opened the passenger door for her; holding out his hand for her as he guided their way to the front door where the others were waiting for their arrival.
"Welcome! Please call me Carlisle and this is my wife Esme. We were expecting you"
Iris nodded with a small smile on her face as she ignored the hissing pain from her cut lips, saying "Nice to meet you again, Carlisle. Esme" giving the Head of the Cullen coven a firm hand shake before turning her attention to the beautiful woman by his side, "It's nice to finally meeting you, Iris. Edward been talking about you" Esme smiled and slowly pulled the said girl into her cold arms, giving her a warm hug as she looking at the purple bruise on her cheek in displeasure, "Oh my, what happened to your face dear?"
Before she could opened her mouth to reply, Edward growl at the memories happened hours ago and spat the words in disgust with furry in his darken eyes, "A drunken man punch her in the face!"
"Oh my! Are you alright sweetie?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Just a bruise and cut lips that's all"
"Let's have a look at that shall we?" Carlisle cut in between their conversation as he motioned Edward to bring an ice pack to reduce the swollen and make their way upstairs to his study room, "Please have a seat"
Iris murmured her thanked as she took a seat on the leather couch in the middle of his study room and listened to the sound of him shuffled through his medical bag for some cotton wool and antibiotic to treat the cuts on her lips.
A knock could been heard inside the room which causes the brunette to turn her attention away as she watched Edward walked inside the room with a small ice pack in his hand, "How are you feeling?" he asked, gently sitting down beside her as he gave her the ice pack for her bruised cheek.
"Fine… but mostly tired" stiffing a yawn as Never Alone by Lady Antebellum filling the house coming from her phone which causes her to flush slightly in embarrassment for the distraction as she took the call with a tired voice, "Hello?"
"Oh my Gosh! Iris! Where are you?"
"Huh?... Bella! Are you alright?"
"I'm fine! I'm managed to find Jacob driving down the street and instantly ask him to help you but you weren't there! God! Where are you?!"
"I'm at Edward house right now. He managed to save me in time before taking me back to his house for his father to treating my bruise cheek"
"Thanked God-!" listening to a deep breath in relief before another voice entered into the speaker, "Hello! Iris! God, where have you been?! I'm looking everywhere for you!"
"Jake?"
"Of course it's me, flower girl! Who else's? Where are you? I'll come and pick you up"
"No! It's fine. I'm at my friend house now. I'll sleep over hi-her right now"
"Alright then! Just be careful next time! I'll see tomorrow, Ris"
"Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow Jake!"
Closing the phone in her hand, she couldn't help but release a deep sigh before pinching the bridge on her nose tiredly, murmuring about something before turning her gaze onto the silence bronze boy beside her, "Sorry about that. He's being over protective again"
"No, it's alright… Your boyfriend I presume?"
"Nope, just my childhood friend"
"I see…"
Iris blinked at the unmistaken relief tone coming from his lips and turned to see him smiling at her with a pair of warm molten golden eyes aiming into her, "Come on, let get you to bed. You look like you about to drop dead any minute" holding out his hand as she took it and leaded the way towards their guest room located across the hall of his.
Laying on the soft bed in the middle of the huge guest room, she sighed, snuggling closer to the softness of the comforter before opening her violet eyes and watched him taking his seat on the rocking chair beside the wide closed window as moonlight illuminate his shadowy figure, "Are you going to watch me sleep all night?" she asked, raising her eyebrows questionably at the silent figure as he chuckled, giving her a nod in confirmation for her question.
"Why? Scared that I might hear you talking in your sleep?"
Iris frowned at the answer and glaring at him in the dark before pouting, saying, "No! I don't talk in my sleep. I just don't need a stalker to watch me sleep all the time"
"…I always watch you sleep"
She blinked her beautiful violet eyes at the soft tone in his voice and gazing deeply into his, seeing nothing but genuine flashed inside the golden eyes before scooting over to make some room as she raised the comforter and motioned him to bed, saying "Come here. You'll get neck cramp if you sit there too long"
"If you might haven't know, vampire don't get neck cramp"
"Yeah but that doesn't mean I like you watching me sleep in the shadow. You look like rapist for god sake!"
Finding there's no way to end their little useless argument, he finally agreed and slowly make his way to the bed as he lay beside her, "Happy now?" he asked.
"Very much"
With that the said tired brunette snuggled closer to the cold as she release a deep breath, leaning her head onto the vampire shoulder with a soft smile, "You're cold" she mumbled as tiredness finally taking tow on her body, feeling a pair of cold arms hesitantly circling around her waist as he pulled her closer, placing a gentle kiss on her forehead, "Good night, Ris…" his soft velvet voice whispered into her ear as darkness slowly swallow her into the unconsciousness…
"Night, Edward…"
