Here we go!

So it occured to me that people are probably thinking I'm a Jake fan. I'm not. At all. I actually hate him, but I think he makes a good friend for

Bella in this story. So no, Jake DOES NOT love Bella. He loves her as a friend. And yes, Jacob is a werewolf.

Chapter 8:EPoV

"Edward, this is crazy. When will you understand that she just wants you to leave her alone?" Rosalie asked, exsaperated. Ever since her meeting with Bella in the hall

she'd been completely against ever having her in the family. Not that she'd ever actually wanted Bella in the family.

"Rose, you heard what Alice said. I can stop it." I explained for what seemed like the millionth time. A little while ago Alice had seen Bella being...followed, I guess is the

best way to say it. Several men. They wanted to hurt her. That was not something I could tolerate. Even if Bella didn't want me, I could never let her get hurt.

"My God Edward," Rosalie rolled her eyes. "This is stupid." She said before heading off to the garage. Her thoughts told me she was going to leave my car alone.

"Don't touch my volvo." I hissed. If she did, she could wave goodbye to her BMW.

"I won't." She snapped back. "I'm just going to tamper with Emmett's jeep."

"What about Emmett's jeep?" Emmett came down the stairs. "Edward, are you serious about this?" he asked when he saw me 'get dressed' for the weather.

"You think I should just leave her?" I asked increadously. I knew Rosalie would feel this way, but Emmett?

~Sorry dude. I know you love her but maybe it's just time to let go. Emmett thought apologetically. I growled. And left without saying anything else.

Right now Bella and Angela would probably be on the one-oh-one. I went there quickly, driving at a hundred as soon as I hit the road. Bella would get her hair done and drop

by a convience store, where she would go for a walk while Angela checked out the library. Then the men would come. As soon as they entered my mind, I pressed down

harder on the gas pedal.

My phone ringing broke into my thoughts. I checked the number before answering. "Hey, Alice." I greeted.

"Edward? Where are you now? What are you doing?" Alice asked, her voice panicked.

I frowned. "I'm on the one-oh-one, why?" What was up with her.

"I can't see Bella!" She cried.

My body locked down. She couldn't see Bella? What? What could that mean? "You can't see her now?" I asked, my voice low and dangerous.

"I can see her now." Alice said. "But I can't see her tonight! She just disapeared!" She wailed.

"Then I'll find her before tonight and then I'll see her." I hung up, not giving Alice a chance to answer. I was going at one-twenty right now.

IPoV

"I'm going for a walk." I hissed to Angela, not looking at Edward.

"Izz..."Angela started. She saw my face and changed her mind. "Meet me at the lirbary when you get back." She sighed.

I nodded and sped out of the convience store. I walked down the street, not really knowing where I was going. All I knew was that I had to get away from him.

The thought brought me up short. I stopped. Why should I need to be away from him? It's not like he means anything to me. Why can't I just be around him? I didn't even have

and answer for myself. I started walking again, slower this time, thinking about each step before I took it.

I was on a lonely street. I was the only one walking. Wow, people in Port Angeles really don't like to walk places. Suddenly I felt like I was being watched. My hand went to my

pocket, where my pocket knife was hanging, and I looked around myself. I couldn't see anyone but a man behind me. He was a good distance away. When I turned forwards to

start walking again, another man came around the corner and stood facing me. I froze. Just a coincidence, I tried to tell myself. Stop acting like a paranoid kid.

"Hey beautiful!" The guy from behind me called. I turned to look at him. He was coming up fast. I looked at the guy in front of me. He was coming this way too. My hand curled

tightly around my knife.

"Busy tonight?" the second one called.

"Yes, actually." I said tightly. "Hopefully you understand."

"Of course we do." The first man said gently. The second man was close enought to touch me now. He drifted his hand up and down my arm before I snatched it away. If I killed

either one of them here, It would soooo not be my fault.

"Don't be like that." The second man purred. He cupped my chin. I punched his face. "Fuck!" He cried, covering his nose with his hand. He took it away. It was covered in his blood

and his nose was probably broken. "You bitch." he hissed. He tried to slap my face. I punched his gut. He doubled over.

"You can win this, bitch." The first man wasn't talking so gently now. He grabbed one of my arms. My god. Hadn't he learned I could punch yet? I punched up underhis jaw. He let

go of my arm. I took my chance to run away. Another man stepped out and cut me off. Come ON!

Just then an all too familiar silver volvo sped down the street and spun so it was facing me. Déjà vu much. The door opened and his voice said "Get in." Yup. Definently déjà vu. I

debated on wether or not I actually wanted to get in. It took only a second before Edward said "Damnit Izzy! Get in the car or I will physically come out and drag you!

I decided to get in the car.

I jumped in and fastened my seat belt. Edward drove back to the convience store where I had stopped. Angela had taken my car to the library.

"What were you doing?!" Edward hissed angrily.

"Trying not to get raped, thank you!" I retorted.

"Why can't you ever just run away?" he asked, still angry. I refused to look at him.

"I did, you retard." I snapped. "That's when ass number three stepped out!"

He didn't answer. I opened to door. "I'm going to the library."

"Actually, I would much rather you came with me." Edward said. I looked at his face for the first time. I could see arguing would be pointless. Even with my own piheadedness,

I knew I was no match for the ass sitting next to me.

"Fine." I slamed the door shut loudly, and Edward winced. I smirked a little.

"Where are we going?" I asked, my voice unfriendly.

"Somewhere neither of us has been in a while." He responded quietly. I pulled out my phone and dialed Angela's cell.

"Hello?" She aswered.

"Angela. I won't be able to make it back to the library. Can you drive my car home? I'll walk to school Monday morning and drive you back home after school." I asked.

"Sure. Why aren't you coming?" Angela asked, sounding worried.

"Because Edward wants me to see the light, and to do so, he had to kidnap me." I said. She laughed.

"See ya Monday!" She hung up. I looked at where Edward had stopped.

"I'm not getting out." I said. We were at the parking spot where we would walk to the meadow.

"What?" Edward asked, shocked.

"Damnit I am not getting out of the car!" I screamed, tears threatning to overflow.

After much failed persuation, Edward was forced to carry my to to the meadow. I was crying and screaming at him the whole time.

He froze when he saw what was in the middle of the meadow. I managed to climb out of his arms and I sat, tears flowing. I brought my knees up and hid my face. My hands

cupped the back of my head.
