Chapter 9- Trying to Find Her

3 days later

Bella POV

It has been three days since I've seen Rose, Emmett and Edward. I miss them all, so much. I miss how Rose would stand up for Edward and me when Emmett will see us kissing. Even if it was just a little peck on the lips, he would go overboard. You might think I sound crazy, but I also miss Rose's cranky hormones. She's a caring person that looks out for her family, which I love about her.

I miss how Emmett would be my big brother. You know…protecting me, looking out for me, everything a big brother would do for his little sister. Even when he irritates me I still love and miss him. He's probably trying to be strong, but I know he'll be upset and when he finds out who has done this. He'll make sure the person stays in the hospital. He might look strong and tough and all but deep down he has a soft spot.

I mostly miss Edward; he's my other half. I knew something was missing besides my brother. I knew there was someone out there for me and I've found him. Edward is the person that made my heart whole and pure. I miss him so much. I miss how he would play the piano for me, put his arms around me when we were in bed sleeping, his smile, how he would pinch the bridge of his nose when he's mad, how he would kiss me goodnight (or just do it to bug Emmett), and I miss his green eyes. I'm just glad that Edward's not going through this. I would rather let that happen to me than him.

Right now I'm in this dark room. The room only has a mattress with a blanket and a toilet at the corner. On top of that, my left leg is chain against a bar window. Let's just say that the chain is very long. I'm sitting on the mattress playing with my fingers. The bread and water is placed next to me but it still hasn't been touched. She only gives me two meals a day and the meals are getting smaller. I just grab the water and drink a small amount because I was getting thirsty. That's all she's been doing these past three days. Bringing my meal and leaving the room without a word.

I grabbed the plate and started to eat small bits of the bread. After just taking a few bits I heard the door open and she walked in. She only comes in two times, once in the morning and once at night night to give me my meal. But she's already been here twice. Why would she be here now?

"Well you seem to get weaker by the past three days," she said with an evil smirk.

"Yeah, so it's not like you care."

"You're right I don't care," She agreed with a laugh.

"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"To tell you that Edward is doing fine without you."

Wait how does she know about, Edward? Three days ago she said that I took her man. Please don't tell me it's my Edward that she is talking about. I looked up at her face and I saw her shaking her head.

Yes, she's talking about my Edward. She wants Edward. But, he's never said anything about another girl. He said he didn't have that many friends; just Emmett, Rose and Jasper. Alice too, but she's his sister.

"You stay away from him; don't put him in the middle of this!" I yelled.

"Oh, but Bella, I can't because he is the whole reason why I kidnapped you," she stated.

"What do you mean?" I inquired.

"You took him from me. I love him. He's supposed to be with me, not you. I don't know what he sees in you."

"Edward and Emmett will do so much stuff to you that you're going to wish that you were dead!" I screamed at her with so much anger.

"Like they will ever find out, I mean it's not like you're Emmett's real sister."

"I am his real sister." I said defensively.

"No, you're not," she replied

"Yes I am; you can run a damn DNA test on us."

"Whatever."

"Wait how do you know that, Emmett was trying to look for his sister?"

"Edward told me," She stated with another smirk.

"How did you even meet him?" I asked in a small voice.

"I'll tell since you are no longer going to be in this world," she said, "I work with, Edward. I'm an OBGYN physician assistant. I mostly work around his office."

No wonder she knows Edward. Also, when I found out Edward helps women give birth I was really happy for him. Plus, if we ever were to marry (which probably will never happen now) and was pregnant with his baby, I would want him to deliver our baby.

"So that's how you know, Edward?" I inquired.

"Yes, he talks to me every day. But ever since you two started going out, all he does is talk about Bella this, Bella that, Bella everything. Before you came around I thought Edward and I had a chance. Now I'm going to make sure that you two will never see each other again," she said.

"It won't matter." I defended.

"Really? How?"

"Whether you like it or not, even when you get rid of me, it's going to change." I said boldly.

"What's not going to change?"

"How Edward feels about me. If he really liked you, even just a little bit, he would have told me about you. I even asked one day if he ever liked anyone and he said no. He's never loved anyone how he loves me." I finished, filled with anger.

"Well then if he isn't ever going to like me and if I can't have him, then no one can," she said before walking out of the room.

"Wait when are you going to-" I started, but she cut me off.

"When the time is right I will get rid of you." Then, she was out of the room.

I started to struggle. I don't want to be here. I just want to go home, get curled up in my bed, get some sleep, and be wrapped up in Edward's arms. All of a sudden I burst into tears. I can't take it anymore; I hope Edward finds me soon.

Edward POV

It's been three days since Bella has gone missing and it has been miserable without her. I have been moping, upset, and grouchy. I won't eat, I barely drink, and I haven't slept. Rose and Emmett are starting to worry about me, but I keep telling them that they don't need to be worry about me. We should be worrying about Bella; she is more important right now.

I miss her so much and I don't know what I would do without her. I haven't stopped looking for her ever since we found out that she was taken. I have been looking non-stop, except when I'm forced to go back home during the night, but during the day that's all I do. I won't stop for anything to look for her.

Everybody at work understands so they're letting me have some time off. I miss doing my job, but I miss seeing Bella more.

Right now I'm driving around town trying to find another place to look for Bella. I looked at gas stations, other stores; I've looked almost every place in town. The police keep telling me that they will handle all this. I don't see them doing a damn thing. I don't see them putting it in the news and I don't see them putting up 'Missing' posters.

I decided to go to the hospital and see if anybody has seen Bella just to be in the safe side. I pulled in the parking lot. When I was in the hospital I went to the hallway where I work. I asked all of my friends and even some of the people I don't even know if they have seen Bella. I even showed a picture of her.

Then I started to realize something, I haven't seen my assistant nurse yet. She works Monday-Friday and she never missed a single day. The only time she does if she is terribly sick or something happened to a friend or a family member. I went to the women who work behind the desk manning the phones and computers.

"Hey, Kate have you seen my PA?" I asked one of the women.

"No actually I haven't. She was supposed to come; she didn't call in sick or anything. The last time anybody saw her was the last time you were here," She answered.

"Really?"

"Yes, Dr. Cullen."

"Oh, okay."

I started to get really suspicious. She's not coming into work without phone calling and she hasn't been around ever since the last time I was here. That was the day Bella was kidnapped and now that I think about it, she had to leave early to go do something. I started to leave but Kate stopped me.

"Hey, Edward, I'm praying that Bella will be found and that she will come back home safe and unharmed," she quietly.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

I walked out of the hospital and into my car. I decided to go to the police station. When I was there I walked up to the front desk and I asked to speak with the chief but they told me that I would have to wait. I said it was an emergency. The police officer agreed to get the chief and walked out.

"Yes, may I help you? I hear it's about Bella Swan," The chief said.

"Yes, I just have an idea that I know who took her," I commented.

"Okay, then, who do you think it is?" He inquired.

"My assistant."

"Where do you work?"

"I'm a doctor; she's my physician's assistant." I said and then all of a sudden I thought back to the tattoo on the video. My assistant has that tattoo. That's it! It was my assistant! It all adds up; she has that exact same tattoo on her hand.

"Chief, she did do it. In that video do you remember that tattoo on that woman's hand?"

"Yes," he replied.

"My assistant has the exact same one on her hand and nobody has seen her or heard of her since the day Bella was taken. She had to leave early that day to go do something is what she told me," I explained to him.

"Okay, can I get her name? We can look her up and to find out where she lives," The chief stated.

"Tanya Denali."


I'm so sorry it took me so long, I'm still trying to get my learner's and when I did try to write again, that's when I heard the news about Kristen Stewart cheating on Robert Pattinson. I couldn't write anymore because that made me depress, I hope they will work it out, because they were awesome together, they were the cutest couple ever, plus I honestly think it was all a set up. I'm also sorry that it is short, I felt like I should leave a cliff hanger, I know I'm being cruel, but I hope you liked the chapter. :)

On the last chapter, I got 10 reviews on the last chapter can we try to beat it in this chapter, please. ; )

I'm so happy you all love this story it makes me, so happy that some people love my stories, my mom believes I can actually become a real author, she's read this story and she loves it, not because I'm her daughter, she said she actually really enjoyed it so much, she also kept rushing me telling me that I had to hurry up with this chapter, that she really wants to see what happens next, but she told me that I have to work on my spelling and grammar, I told that I know I do, but other then that she loves this story. :)

You, readers and my mom is so supported, you all encourage me to become an author, your reviews what keeps me writing, because I know there are people out there who loves my stories. I know not everybody is going to love my stories, but that's what makes it to be a great writer. I know I will get positives, but I will also get negatives and that's okay, that tells me what I need to work on. Love you all. :D

Don't forget I have a FACEBOOK page, you can find it on my profile. :)
