Chapter 10
Bella's POV
June 14
I held poor little Emily while she cried. I cried myself, I cried for Emily, I cried for Rose and I just cried. I cried because I whish I hadn't been so mean to Rose. I cried because of how courageous Emily had been.
"Emily, I don't even know what to say about your experience. It is absolutely terrible and I do know that and I whish you hadn't had to go through that. You can not blame yourself though; your mother wouldn't want you too. It is absolutely not your fault it is Royce's fault and only his fault. When I was diagnosed with cancer I wasn't worried about myself, I was worried about my child. Mothers would give their life for their child's without a second thought. Your mother is included in this; she did what she had to do as a mother. You know that what she says at the end of her phone call is not true; she is forced to say it. We are going to save your mother though, thank you so much for telling me. I love you my beautiful niece." I said all this hoping she would listen and believe me. I knew she would have a lot of emotional problems for the rest of her life. We would all be here to help Emily though, support her. For now the first thing would be to save Rose. I knew that would make Emily feel a lot better and it would make me feel better too. I held Emily and thought about how we would save Rose. First we needed everyone in the family to know what was going on.
"Emily, first we will save your mom. We will need to tell the whole family so they can help us. I know you don't want them to know, but think of your mom. We have to for Rose. I need to tell Edward right now and then we should invite everyone over here to tell them. I can tell them what happened if you don't want too. We don't have to go in to any details at all. We need to tell them though." I was convincing but gentle when I said this. I didn't want to startle Emily but if we were going to save her mom we had to tell everyone.
"Thank you Bella, I think that is a good idea. It will be hard but it needs to be done. I think I would like it if you told them. I don't think I can say it again. Please don't go in to details, I have to take my time with all the horrible things. I want to save my mom though, that would make me feel a little bit better. But please can my siblings not come? I don't want then to find out about this until it's all over." I respected Emily's wishes of course and we phoned everyone asking them to come over. They all obliged but asked why; we just said it was really important. When we phoned Emmet he didn't know if he could leave the kids. We sent our friend Jacob, whom we had known since we were kids, to look after them. Everyone agreed to come and half an hour later everyone was arriving. We hadn't told Edward yet; Emily said she wanted to tell him with everyone else. I respected this of course even though I wanted Edward's advice. I wanted to be able to comfort Emily but I couldn't figure out how.
"Thanks for coming everyone, especially on such short notice. So you all, naturally, asked why we wanted you all to come over. Edward and I have some great news that I think we should share it right now and then Emily and me have some stuff we need to discuss as a family." I was going to tell the family about the twins. We needed to at some point and I figured we had everyone here so this would be a good time.
"Edward can you come and tell the family with me." Edward put his arm around my waist and gave it a light squeeze.
"As you all know I am 8 weeks pregnant. Edward and I found out some amazing news at my first sonogram. Carlisle already knows this of course." I started, Edward continued.
"Bella has already made me the happiest man in the world and now she has just become even more amazing. Everyone, Bella and I are expecting twins." Alice squealed, Carlisle smiled, and Emmet laughed in his booming laugh. Esme came over and pulled me in to a hug and then Jasper did as well. Alice was next and immediately started talking about matching baby outfits. I calmed everyone down so we could get on with the next news.
"Okay well the next thing I am going to tell you is the real reason I have brought you here. Emily has told me all of this morning but I am going to tell all of you because it is too hard for her. No one knows about this yet, not even Edward. "I started and everyone immediately had a solemn look on there faces. I continued.
"Well as you all know Rose has moved in with Royce. Now you all think that it is because she wanted too, I thought so too, until this morning. Rose was forced to move in with Royce and she was forced to say what she said to all of us. Emily and Rose were at the grocery store when they met Royce. At first he was nice but then when they said they had to leave he wouldn't let them. He took them to an abounded cottage. He had a gun and tied them up. First, while Rosalie watched, he raped Emily." I heard many gasps and grumbles from the men. They were mad, as they should be.
"Then Royce did the same to Rose. He was planning on killing Emily and then later doing the same to Rose. Rosalie wanted to save Emily so she said she would go with Royce and do everything he said. This was all two weeks ago." I went and sat down and pulled Emily in to a hug. She was crying and once again I started to cry. Everyone else was also crying. The men looked upset but also absolutely ready to kill. I knew they were thinking about Royce. I was glad they were this mad at him.
"So we need to come up with a way to get Rose out of there. Jasper you are a detective, what would be the best way to do this?" I questioned.
"Well Bella I don't think getting the police involved yet is a good idea. They wouldn't help. We need to come up with a strategic plan. Once we get Rose out of there we can alert the police. If Edward would be willing to take it as a lawsuit and get Royce put in jail that would be good. Bella or Emily has Rosalie been trying to fight him off?" Jasper said this all so calmly, like he did it everyday. I knew he did do it everyday but this time it was his sister. I could see that he was trying to stay calm for everyone else though. Before I could answer his question, Emily did, speaking up for the first time in a while.
"Yes but he is very strong. She stopped fighting him because he gives her rape pills. He is making her take drugs so she can't think properly." Emily said it couragesly but with a ton of sadness. Everyone was sad. Esme came over and gave Emily a hug, just as everyone else did. They all thanked me too but I told them not too. Edward said that he would absolutely be Rosalie's lawyer.
We were going to get our Rose back. That was for sure!
Thanks for reading!
So I have an idea for some Bella stuff that will happen but first I need to finish the Rose-Royce-Emily thing. Everyone knows now so that's a start. Incase you didn't figure it out Jasper is a detective and Edward is a lawyer.
I was looking up information about breast cancer and pregnancy and the cancer actually can't spread to your baby in your womb, I know this doesn't go with this chapter but I thought I should say it. I'm sorry for putting that in there, I'm no doctor. It is fiction though so we can just pretend it can happen.
I love reviews but reviews that are just saying "love it" or "please update" are kind of dissapoting. Please just add something too it!
Thanks for reading and please review!!!
