BPOV
When we opened the Attic door, there stood, whom I assumed was Shax, from the photo in the book.
He grinned like a Cheshire cat, and picked up his arm like he was going to throw something at us but before he could, Paige screamed, "Piper! Blow him up!" It was then that I realized that I was in Edward's arms, with my face buried into his shirt. What the…
I jumped out of his arms and tried to blow him up. All that happened, though, was his arm blew up! Was something wrong with my powers? He glared and then disappeared in a puff of smoke.
I looked towards my sisters. I was about to speak, but stopped when I saw them glaring.
Shit…"What the hell was that Piper?! Why did you suddenly just freeze up? Were you scared? Of a demon? We've been handling demons for years!" Prue hissed.
I looked at them, apologetically, "I'm sorry. I… I don't know what happened. It won't happen again." I looked at the floor, counting how many boards were in it. I then glanced at Edward, smiling apologetically at him.
"Prue," Phoebe scolded. "It's not her fault, she just got scared. It happens." She shrugged casually.
"Yeah…well…" she left the room, me staring after her. I remember when Phoebe told me about all of them freezing up and being scared of a demon when they first got into this 'business'. She has no right to be yelling at me.
"Um…" Paige tried to break through the awkward feeling in the room. She glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "Oh! 11:30. Time for bed." With that she and Phoebe ran out of the room.
I stood there, feeling uncomfortable with being left alone with them. Lokking for en excuse, I remembered what Paige just said, "Um… I guess I'll head to bed too, then. Goodnight." I smiled, and walked out to get ready for bed.
When I walked into my room, I went into the bathroom and changed clothes and then brushed my teeth. I pulled my hair up into a pony tail and climbed into bed, praying that I wouldn't have another nightmare about Edward leaving me.
No such luck…
"You…don't…want…me?" I tried out the words, confused by the way they sounded, placed in that order.
"No."
"Well, that changes things." I was surprised by how calm and reasonable my voice sounded. It must be because I was so numb. Everything he was telling me still didn't make sense.
He just stared at me. "You're not good for me, Bella." He finally said.
"If… that's what you want."
He nodded once, and then he began to walk away. That's when I started screaming.
I heard someone holding me and telling me to wake up.
I was still screaming when I opened my eyes. When I did, the screaming abruptly stopped as I looked into the eyes of…
