Chapter 10 – What Sophie said!

SophiePov

Riley is my best friend.

He says that mommy doesn't understand our friendship and that I can't tell her anything about it. But I don't mind.

Riley told me that my dad is an evil man and that's why mommy hasn't told him about me, and why I've never met him.

He told me that he's crazy and that he did something bad one time and it was to mom's best friend and that he did it because he was a control freak and didn't like mommy having friends, especially ones he didn't like.

Riley told me about this three years ago on my seventh birthday when I was crying because I had no daddy and all my friends teased me about it. Riley told me that I could call him daddy but I could only do that when mommy wasn't around because mommy doesn't want to replace my daddy. I don't know why though because he's evil and she's getting married to Riley now so he will become my daddy.

Riley told me that he wants to adopt me after they get married. He explained to me that it was when it is all legal and that I would be his daughter and not that evil mans. I can't wait for that day when I can be free from him. Riley says that I will even get his last name.

I will then officially be Sophie Alice Biers.

I love Riley very much. Even more than mommy and Auntie Ali, this is why I want to go with him. But mommy told me I had to go to the room we slept in last night. When I didn't go Auntie Alice took me there. She was very mad at me for kicking that Edward guy who they said was my daddy. He will never be my daddy though because Riley is. I will never call that horrible man dad because he doesn't deserve it after what he did.

I can hear shouting downstairs. Mommy is mad and I can hear Riley my daddy calling for me to come downstairs to him. I know if I do he will take me away from these mean people. They're mean people because they are keeping me away from my daddy the only person who loves me.

The shouting stops and the door slams and Riley has gone.

Why did he leave without me?

I lie down on the bed and cry because he lied to me. He told me on the phone before he got here that he wouldn't leave without me but he did.

Auntie Ali tried to make me stop and come give mommy a fashion show and tell Edward I'm sorry but I don't. I grab the pillow and pull it over my head. I hear Alice leave and close the door quietly. I wait until I know she has gone before I climb out of the bed and get my phone from the drawer that Riley had given me if I ever wanted to talk to him.

I opened it up and I had a message there from Riley

Sorry Sophie baby. Your mommy made me leave but I promise I will come for you and take you away from the nasty man. I will call you tomorrow and tell you when I'm coming for you. I love you. Daddy

Riley does everything a daddy is supposed to do and takes care of me. He even said that I'm getting an extra special present for my tenth birthday in a week. I can't wait.

I quickly put it back in my drawer before Alice got back and jumped back on the bed in the same position I was in before.

About ten minutes later I heard voices on the stairs. I went out and saw Edward carrying my mom into the guest room. I couldn't have that so I went in there and demanded to know what he did to her. Even though they said he did nothing I know it was him. He hurt my mommy. Just another reason to hate him.

He was still there when I went to wake mom in the morning. I hated that she was letting him this close and that HE was the reason daddy wasn't staying with mom and I.

He was pure evil nothing more than a…..

"What Alice," I said. "What did she say?" I had to know why Sophie hated Edward so much. And if she said something that would explain that I had to know.

"She, she, oh Edward she said you killed her mom's best friend," Alice cried.

"She said WHAT?" I yelled. Who the hell had fed her those lies? I certainly hadn't I never said anything about him to her.

It dawned on me after a few moments that it was Riley and that Edward was right. My ex fiancé had been poisoning not only myself against Edward to ensure I never told him about Sophie, but also my own daughter in Edward found out about her.

Oh hell Riley is going to pay for this stunt.

"Ali, you sure that's what she said?" Edward asked quietly. And I was surprised to here his voice break on the last word.

"Yes, she wouldn't say who told her though but I have my suspicions that it was…"

"Alice, we already know who it was, it was that fucker Riley." Edward said fiercely cutting Ali off.

"No no no. It wasn't. I don't know what has happened but Riley wouldn't do that. He wouldn't." Alice said trying to convince Edward. "You're just prejudiced against him because he's with Bella and haven't got to know him yet. Edward he really is a great guy once you get to know him," Alice babbled on.

"Alice, I think it was him too." I said before she could lay into Edward anymore about none existent jealousy Edward and I were barely friends again and trying to figure out what kind of relationship we could have.

"No B it wasn't. I didn't tell you this because I didn't want to worry you but Jacob turned up a few months back while you were out at the shops and he was alone with her for a few minutes while I took a phone call. It could just as easily have been him, the nasty little mutt." Alice said in a hurry.

All I heard was Jacob, alone with my daughter, and the word mutt.

"Alice why was Jacob there and more to the point how the fuck did he find us. He didn't even know I lived in LA," I demanded to know.

"He said something about calling and a guy, Riley, picking up the phone. I guess they talked and he came up to see you. Must have spouted some bullshit about the two of you being best friends and that but I'm telling you Riley would never say anything like that to Sophie," Alice said as she kept pushing the point.

"Okay well that's the third strike against my ex fiancé." I sighed, flopping back down in my bed.

"Third strike?" Alice questioned. "Ex fiancé? I thought it was just a spat that was fixable."

"Al, he poisoned my mind with lies about Edward to keep Sophie from him, he has filled my daughter with lies about her father and he told my former best friend where I live," at that Alice gave me a pointed look. "Guy best friend Ali, you have always and will always be number 1."

"Good to know, and as your best friend I'm telling you Riley is a good guy, he wouldn't do any of those, well except for the last but I really think he meant well." Alice said. The one thing I could really hate about Alice is when she got like this, always having to be right, saying she is all knowing and that if she had sensed anything wrong I would be the first to know.

"Ali, you don't know what went on yesterday so please reserve your judgment until after you know." Edward said quietly from the corner. "Oh and Bella you might wanna eat your pancakes before they get cold. You know as well as I that they are best eaten freshly made."

"You have a point there." I mumbled grabbing my plate and began to eat and inbetween bites Edward and I filled Alice in on the events of yesterday.

It was hard to believe that so much drama had happened in just one day. I thought I had left all the drama behind when I left high school. I missed the time when my relationship with Riley had been drama free and simple until I found out he was nothing more than a manipulative asshole.

By the time we had finished telling her what happened, Alice was stunned into silence which was a miracle in itself since she always had something to say.

Finally she found her voice and it wasn't what I expected her to say, "Am I losing my touch. I mean I always know and can read people so well. How did I get him so wrong?"

"Alice we were all fooled not just you," I sighed, finishing off the last of my pancakes. "Where did Sophie go when you left her?"

"She was heading downstairs. I think she wanted pancakes too." Alice said.

"Right well I'm going to get dressed and head downstairs and have a little talk with her. I need to set her straight about Edward." I told her casting a sad glance in his direction.

"Do you want me to come with you?" he asked.

"No I need to do this alone and heaven knows your shin won't be able to take another kick like that." I half laughed trying to make light of it. I knew Edward meant well but in truth it would be a hell of a lot harder to get through to her if he was there. If she wasn't open to the idea of accepting Edward then it was better he wasn't there for this. And then there was also the fact that he has no parenting experience and can't read her that well.

"Okay, I get it," he said sadly and it was clear he wanted to be there. "Just let me know how it goes."

I nodded and he left the room with Alice.

I'm not going to lie hearing Alice say that Sophie believed I was a killer hurt. But more than anything I regretted not causing more damage to that fucker Riley; actually scratch that I wish I'd left within an inch of death and him beg me not to kill him.

"Edward," my sister said softly, "Are you okay?"

"Do I fucking look okay to you Alice? My own daughter who knows nothing about me thinks I'm a cold blooded killer. How would you feel?" I yelled. I honestly didn't mean to bite her head off but really I had just found out that fucker had a huge influence over my daughter and had been filling her head with crap AND Bella hadn't even noticed.

"Hey, don't have a go at me. I'm only showing concern and I know we haven't talked in years and I've spent just as much time trying to hate you but you're my brother and I love you so damn it Edward grow the fuck up and don't take your anger out on me when it's him you should be mad at." Alice rushed out and I'm pretty sure it was because she thought I'd bit her head off again.

"You're right Alice," I sighed. "I'm going to have a shower and calm down a bit while Bella talks to Sophie."

I walked down the hallway to my room and as soon as I got in there I punched the wall several times before attempting to reign in my anger. I ran my hands through my hair and made my way to my en suite bathroom. I hoped that whatever Bella said to Sophie helped with the situation because if it didn't I had no idea what I was going to do.
