Chapter 10
EPOV
I charged foward and pushed Jacob to the ground. I got on top of him and pummeled his face. His followers did nothing to stop me. Wise choice. He was going to pay for all the pain he had caused my girl. Then he had the audacity to push me as well as her. Was he asking to die? It was one thing to mess with me but don't ever mess with my girl! He laid defenseless beneath me. His eyes and lips were becoming swollen. He even stared to cry. "Wow and he's supposed to be a wrestler?" my mind said. I ignored it. I couldn't focus on anything but making Jacob pay. I got up and kicked him in the stomach and the throat. He choked out in pain. I snarled at him and began stomping on him. I picked up a brick, preparing to hit him in the head with it. Then I heard Bella's voice. "Edward, no! Stop!" she screamed. Deja vu much? I instantly looked at her and saw the fear in her eyes and the tears streaming down her face. I put the brick down and glared at Jacob, silently telling him not to move. Wow this really is deja vu.
I slowly started to walk over to her and held out my arms. She took a step back. She looked so terrified. Ugh, how could I be so stupid?! Her mother abused her so of course she wouldn't like violence! I thought I was protecting her but I was really hurting her. Now I bet she thinks I'm going to hit her something. I would never do that. I would never abuse a woman. I would never abuse anyone. "Bella, I'm not going to hurt you. I know I scared you baby girl and I apologize deeply for that. I need you to know that I'm not going to hurt you, love" I spoke softly. She hesitantly walked over to me. I slowly pulled her to me. She began to relax a little. I rubbed circles on her back and trailed my fingers slowly down her spine. I heard her breathing start to speed it up. I was instantly worried. "What's wrong, love?" I asked with concern. She shook her head and smiled at me. Her smile was so beautiful. She was beautiful. I was about to kiss her but then Mr. Greene, the principal came running over to us. "What happened?!"

I watched in fear as Edward continued to pummel Jacob. I was glad that someone was finally standing up for me and standing up to Jacob but I felt that it could have been handled another way. I had been abuse since I was little so violence wasn't really something that I was fond of. I was suddenly pulled from my thoughts. Edward was holding a brick over his head, about to hit Jacob in the head with it. My eyes widened in fear. "Edward, no! Stop!" I screamed through my tears. He immediately looked at me. He put the brick down and glared at Jacob. Then he slowly walked over to me. I took a step back. I was afraid. Was he going to hit me? "Bella, I'm not going to hurt you. I know I scared you baby girl and I apologize deeply for that. I need you to know that I'm not going to hurt you, love" he spoke softly. I hesitantly walked over to him. I had stopped crying but I was still afraid. He slowly pulled me to him and I relaxed a little. He rubbed circles on my back and trailed his fingers soflty down my spine. My breathing began to speed up. That felt so good. "What's wrong, love?" he asked with concern. I shook my head and gave him a smile. Then Mr. Greene ran over to us. "What happened?!" he demanded. "Bella and I were walking toward the building and Jacob was blocking the entrance. Then he started insulting Bella and I and shoved us. I just defended myself and Bella. Jacob has been bullying Bella" Edward explained sincerely. He asked Jacob, members in the crowd, and I was this the truth. We all said yes. I was surprised that Jacob's followers didn't lie for him. I guess they were scared.
Then the three of us went into his office. Jacob had to lean on Mr. Greene to walk. After he was done talking and questioning us, Edward was suspeneded for fighting and Jacob was expelled for bullying. He gave me permission to go home for the day. Then he made Edward and I leave to room to have a private conversation with Jacob and call his parents.
"What do you want to do, love?" Edward asked when we were in the parking lot. "It doesn't matter as long as I'm with you" I said, smiling at him. He kissed me sweetly and we got in his car. "Ok. Let's go back to our meadow" he said, taking my hand and leading me to the car. He opened the door for me and shut it we I got in. Then he got in and we drove to our meadow in peaceful silence.
When we go there, I was just as amazed as I was yesterday. It was so absolutely beautiful. We sat there for hours talking, kissing, and just being us. I was so in love with this boy I felt like my heart was going to explode from all the love.
After watching the sunset, Edward lifted me up to my feet and spun me around. I giggled and blushed. He pulled me to him and kissed me. "I love you" he whispered. "I love you too" I whispered back. "I suppose I should get you home" he sighed. I froze with fear. "Bella, baby calm down. Carlisle and I are going to get you out of this. I promise" he declared. All I did could do was nod. "Edward, you never told me how you knew she was abusing me" I managed to say. "Carlisle told me. He heard her threaten you in the hospital room. That's the real reason why I came to your house that day. It was really just for confirmation. I was at the door the whole time. I heard her push you down. I even heard what she said to make you hurry to come in the house" he explained, trying to contain his anger. "Oh" was all I could say. I looked away from him, not wanting him to see the pain in my eyes. He gently pulled my face back towards him and kissed me softly. I melted into the kiss and instantly relaxed. He carried me back to the car.
I was uneasy the entire ride home. Edward tried to get me to relax but I couldn't. My heart practically stopped when we arrived at my house. I was paralyzed with fear. "Baby, look at me" Edward said. I forced myself to look at him. "We're going to get you away from her soon. I promise" he said firmly. Then he pulled me to him kissed me firmly. It eventually turned soft and sweet. Then I took a deep breath and opened the door. "I love you, Bella" Edward said softly, pain in his voice. "I love you too, Edward" I whispered, holding back tears. I slowly walked toward the door. Edward watched me the entire time until I was in the house. Then I felt a something hard hit my head. I started to lose consciousness.
