Bella P.O.V

"Well that was uh.." I said trying to find the word as Jasper and I walked into the hotel room that we booked for the night. He just rolled his eyes as he flung his car keys on the side table in the little room.

"It was a disaster, is what it was." He said softly grabbing me and pulling me onto the little bed. I laughed as I turned on my side to look at him.

"He stuttered the whole time."

"Yah… poor guy." I said as I played in Jaspers hair. He just shrugged lazily before he turned into me and kissed me, getting straight to the point of us booking a hotel for the night. I laughed softly as I laid on my back and he went on top of me, kissing my neck. I put my hands under his shirt as he took off his leather jacket. I laid on my back and I stared at him softly as he did.

"I'm not going to fuck you Bella." He said as bent down again and kissed down my neck.

"No?" I asked disappointed.

"No… I'm going to make love to you." He said softly before he put his lips on mine. I wrapped my arms around him and just let his scent engulf me. He slowly undid the buttons on my blouse and unhooked my bra before he attacked my chest.

"Fuck." I muttered.

"It's gonna be a long night baby." Was all he said before he went back to work.

-Home-

"Is anybody home?" Jasper asked eyeing my house that looked oddly deserted.

"Charlie and Sue went out of town so, everyone's probably out going crazy." I said mindlessly as I turned to look at him. He just nodded softly before refocusing his attention onto me. He took my hand and then kissed it.

"I had a good time." He whispered.

"Me too." Was all I said before I leaned in to give him a little kiss. I got out of the car and watched him drive off before I turned around to go into the house.

"Bree!? Lee!?" I yelled as I stepped into the house placing my bag on the floor and flicking the lights on. I went to arm the security system but drew my hand back when I realized it was smashed. Without a second thought I went into my pocket and dialed Jasper.

"Hello? I'm driving is everything okay?"

"Jasper I think someone is in the house." I whispered. But that was all I could really say before I turned and saw Leah on the floor in a puddle of her own blood. I screamed.

"Leah!" I screeched before I ran to her but that was right before I felt something sharp in the back of my head, and everything went black.

-Who knows When-

"And that was all you saw?" Said a stern voice who didn't seem to be impressed with what he was hearing at all. It smelled clean… like pine almost. I felt like I was on something scratchy and my head hurt. It hurt a lot, it hurt so much it made me moan out.

"She's waking up." Said the voice of my father. In a tone that caused silence all around. I blinked once, twice, three times before I saw my parents standing in the room. One male police officer in uniform and a woman who was dressed in a pant suit and seemed to be a detective by the badge and gun on her hip. The first thing I saw was my mothers' worried face, my fathers aggravated one at the police officers, and the first thing I felt was my head. But the first thing I said was this.

"Is Leah dead? Mom is Leah dead I saw her on top of a bunch of blood I saw her-

"No- No honey she's not dead." She said calmly as she stroked my hair as I burst into tears. My mother had tears in her eyes as she shook her head.

"She's not dead honey I promise you she's just hurt but she's going to be okay." My mother said soothingly as she stroked my hair. It was then that I noticed that Leah was in the hospital bed across from mine… sleeping. The woman with the badge looked at me.

"You said you saw her in a bunch of blood is that all you saw?" The woman asked my father got up pissed.

"Alright that's it! My daughter just woke up from being attacked ! She's scared can you not fucking see that? That's the first thing you ask her!?" He barked at her. Leah stirred in her bed and woke up at the yelling.

"Mom?" She croaked out. Rene went over to her worriedly.

"She's still not here yet honey they're on their way." She said softly as she stroked Leah's hair now. Playing mom to both of us.

"Phil the girls don't need this right now." Rene said quietly. "I'm unhappy too but everyone is just waking up and confused and I want the girls fixed before we deal with all of this okay?" Rene said losing her voice as tears fell. Phil just nodded softly still angry.

"What do you want to do?" He asked her.

"I want everybody out. No police officers no detectives no people from the newspaper. The girls need to get better. Okay?" She said to Phil. He nodded softly once more.

"You heard her… get out." He said to the two of them.

"Mr. Dwyer with all due respect that isn't the best-

"With all due respect. I will be suing you people so viciously you may not have a job tomorrow, so I think if you still wanna have your chances at working at a desk filing papers at least you let my daughter and her sister get better before you jam your accusations down their throat" Phil said in a low and in control voice. The detective pulled the police officer out and when they were gone Phil just shook his head. He looked at me.

"Are you okay?"

"What happened?" I asked in a scratchy voice. My mother and Phil just looked at each other. I looked over at Leah who herself looked confused. "Leah what happened?" I asked her from my spot on the bed.

"Bree and Seth took the Porsche out for a joyride and Jake and I were going to go to a party on the res and… I forgot something." She said trying to remember.

"What did you forget sweetie?" My mother asked her attentively trying to get her to speak without being so harsh like I guess the two cops were. Leah blinked a little before she answered.

"My bikini top… I brought the bottom and didn't bring the top so I turned back and went home when I was on my way to Jake's and I ran up the stairs got the top… and I heard someone shuffling around in Bree's room. I thought she left with Seth, so I went to ask why she was back and then somebody in a hoodie just came at me when I opened the door…we were going at it and somehow we rolled down the fucking steps while we fought. And then they hit me with something." She said as she cried remembering. "They were going to hit me again I know they were but then Bella came in the door and noticed something." She said as she sobbed. I teared up at how scared she was. My mother put her hand through her hair and kissed her forehead.

"It's okay sweetie. It's okay we're here." She said tears in her eyes as she held Leah. Just then Charlie and Sue walked in, in a panic.

"Dear god! What the hell happened." Sue exclaimed coming over to me and looking at the cut on my forehead. She squinted her eyes at my face as tears gathered in her eyes.

"Sweetie what is going on. No one will answer me." She said as she touched my forehead. I just looked over at Leah and when she followed my eyes they widened.

"Oh my goodness." She said walking over to Leah who was in horrible shape in comparison to me. My mother took that time to explain everything. My dad just wrapped his arm around my shoulder and I leaned into him as Rene basically explained everything from the middle of the room.

"Someone broke into the damn house what! How! When!?" Charlie exclaimed not even able to find the words to say.

"We're getting to the bottom of it." Phil said rubbing his face against his hands.

"Well while they investigate we have to get the kids out of here. All of them." Charlie said.

"They can stay with us… Rene and I have tonnes of room, we can have them enrolled in-

"What!?" Leah and I both said interrupting them. Charlie and Phil looked at the two of us.

"We can't leave Forks. We graduate this year we… dad." I said softly.

"I understand that this is frustrating sweetie… but. You or Leah could've gotten killed. It isn't safe here."

"I don't want to go back to Phoenix I have a life here…" I said softly.

"Me too." Leah replied.

"I get it I do… I just… I can't bear the thought of anything happening to you guys." Rene said to Leah.

"It's for the best." Charlie said to us. Just then there was a knock on the door and the police officers from before came back in. Phil huffed at their presence but the rest of us stayed quiet as they kind of explained the situation we already knew.

"Whoever broke into the house was after something one of your children may have had." The woman said. Everyone looked at Leah and I and Phil went to go get Bree and Seth who were waiting patiently in the waiting room so we could all be questioned together.

"The police officer explained that whoever hurt the girls may have been after something that one of you guys have." Charlie said sternly to all of us. Bree, Leah, Seth and I just looked at each other not really saying anything under the suspicious glances.

"Like what?" Leah croaked.

"We don't know but… we can assume since the person was described as rummaging through Bree's stuff that they were probably looking for something. They went when nobody was home which means they weren't trying to hurt anybody." She explained.

"Is there anything you guys are involved in that may bring on this kind of attention? Are you involved in anything. Drugs?-

"Drugs!?" We all exclaimed incredulously.

"You think we're pushing drugs?!" I said my eyes wide. My mother spoke.

"We know it's unlikely but… we still need to ask."

"No for God sakes we are not pushing drugs this is ridiculous. Our house gets broken into and we're the criminals?" Bree asked looking at me and then at Leah. I just crossed my arms.

"They're sending us back to Phoenix" I said knowing she wouldn't be happy.

"What!?" Bree and Seth exclaimed.

"We're sending all of you to Phoenix… it's not safe for you guys to be here." Charlie said.

"Uh What!?" Seth said standing up. Bree just shook her head looking at our dad.

"No dad.. come on please? You sent us here to have a life and… it's not fair that when we start one you take it away." She said to Phil who just looked at Rene helpless.

"If it's any help… we can have round the clock surveillance and protection on the kids… and their friends… For safe measure."

"See?" Leah asked trying to reason. My mother just looked at Sue. She shook her head.

"I can't leave you guys here. There is no way in hell I could leave you guys after this."

"So then don't leave Rene… move to Forks." Seth said eagerly. Rene looked disgusted.

"No" She said crossing her arms.

"Mom.. Please. I want to graduate in Forks… I don't want to run away from whoever is trying to hurt us…. Never run away from a fight. Right dad?"

"Now you listen to me?" Phil said with an eye roll and Charlie laughs a little bit.

"Well we do have a nice property across the street it's vacant … and huge." Charlie said to Rene who looked Phil sighing. He shrugged.

"We did make them come here… it would be insane to… take them back." He said to Rene.

"Please Rene?" Leah croaked.

"Yeah mom please?" I asked softly.

"Alright fine but there are rules. Nobody and I mean Nobody goes anywhere alone. I'm talking insane buddy system. Curfew of eleven for all of you."

"What!?" All the kids said their eyes bugging out of their heads.

"Do you want to stay in Forks or not?" Sue challenged all the kids who stayed quiet. We all just stared at each other. Nobody said anything but just looked at each other with tortured eyes as we realized our lives were about to be lame. No more sneaking out. No more late-night partying in the city. No more late-night Jasper. God if I found this stalker I'd kill them myself.

"Okay." We all agreed. After that the cops did a million things. They asked us questions together, then separately. They asked us about our partners our extracurricular activities. It was insane how much questions we got asked. They took everybody's finger prints. It was only around six o clock that I was finally able to see Jasper. He came in looking tired, his eyes bloodshot, his hair in a messy man bun as opposed to it down as it usually is. His button down shirt was rolled up to his elbows and he had his leather jacket in his hand. Carlisle walked in with him.

"Baby girl." He whispered coming over to me. Taking my face in his hands as he kissed my forehead. I threw my arms around him and just burst into a fit of tears. My mother told me he wasn't allowed to see me while everyone was being questioned on various things.

"It's okay I'm here. I'm here." He whispered kissing my forehead repeatedly. Carlisle took Jaspers' jacket and hung it up. He went to go see Leah and pretended like he was giving us privacy. He wiped my tears away.

"I thought I lost you no one would tell me anything for-

He started.

"It's okay. It's okay I'm here." I said quietly as he held me. He put his forehead to mine. I held his hands and we were taken out of a little moment at Carlisle standing there with an apologetic smile, holding his clip board.

"Sorry son I got to check her vitals." He said. Jasper just nodded moving over to the side but not by much. Carlisle looked at him as though to say "really?".

"Jasper. Sit. Down." He said sternly. Jasper rolled his eyes but despite his aggravation he listened. I giggled a little bit and Carlisle who was amused checked me up.

"They're going to keep you here for observation for a few nights see how your body responds to the medication we put you on." He said. I groaned.

"It's okay… you got your sister." He said. Leah just raised her hand and grunted before she took a bite of spaghetti that Jacob was feeding her. I just smiled softly before he left the room and let the kids be. Bree and Seth walked in with the rest of our friends. When everyone was cramped inside the room everyone was able to speak for the first time since all the craziness happened.

"I bet your ass it was Lauren Mallory… she was always an odd one." Jessica said with her arms crossed. Mike rolled his eyes.

"It was not Lauren Mallory."

"Maybe it was Mrs. Cope? Didn't she have a huge thing for your dad in high school?" Jacob added.

"Guys." Edward said touching his temple. Trying to get everyone to shut up. "It was not Cope and it definitely wasn't Lauren. Truth is we're not going to know who it is especially since we're being watched like hawks now."

"Yeah Charlie just told me to walk with pepper spray" Bree said with an eye roll.

"And my parents are moving to Forks. That's two added parents." I mentioned.

"This is so unfair." Alice mumbled.

"Well I think we should fight like hell to figure out who did this" Bree said.

"Uh why. We can get ourselves killed. Leah barely made it out alive and I'm so fucked up my teeth hurt." I said.

"I know." She sympathized softly. "But-

"No… No buts it's too dangerous." Edward said as he put his arm around Alice.

"I'm with Edward. We should just leave it alone and let the police handle it. We'll be free in a couple of months anyways. I don't want anyone getting hurt." He said wrapping his arm around me and kissing my forehead. I leaned against him and shed a tear. Because I was tired, maybe even a little scared. I couldn't really tell you which.

OOooo

"Have you seen my red blouse?" Leah asked as she came down the stairs and into the kitchen.

"What's a blouse?" My dad asked he sipped his coffee. Rene rolled her eyes. Seth skateboarded into the house and my dad just laughed as he did.

"Enjoy it while you can the floors are getting done later!" Phil yelled after Seth. I sighed as I looked at my notes at the bar in the kitchen. This was our life now. My parents moving across the street had meant that everyone was scattered and clustered everywhere. Sometimes all the kids would stay at my parents house or we'd stay at Charlie and Sue's or sometimes some of us would spend the night at one place while some were at the other. It was wherever we happened to be. I can confidently say that Phil and Rene had taken in two more children in the form of Leah and Seth. Phil and Rene were liking the idea of having a son. As they had never really had any real boys around. Phil loved it, he loved Seth you could see it. Seth loved him back. Whatever he couldn't do at one place he would definitely be able to do at the other. The four of us learned that quickly. We used it to our advantage.

"You're still not dressed yet!?" Charlie asked walking in with Bree hot on his tail, dressed ready to go. She had spent the night at the other house, staying with Sue making cupcakes for a bake sale at school.

"She's looking for a blize?" Phil said.

"A blouse dad… blouse." I said talking to him like he was an idiot. He threw a little piece of paper at me and I laughed a little bit.

"Hello! Hurry up. We have to get going!" He yelled at all the kids. Seth skateboarded by him almost knocking him over. "What the hell type of shit show are you running here Dwyer!?" He yelled at Phil. Bree just laughed as she went to Phil and he kissed her hair.

"Charlie you're in a better mood this morning." Phil said being sarcastic as usual. I giggled. Charlie rolled his eyes.

"Oh don't get smart with me. You don't have to deal with my mother." He shot back as Rene went and handed him a cup of coffee.

"You always did get weird around your mom." Rene said as she went into Phil's arms.

"I do not" Charlie defended his face red. Sue walked in just then with a sample board.

"I have the swatches!" She exclaimed excitedly.

"Ah wonderful." Rene said clapping her hands together. Since my parents had moved into this monstrosity of a house that had been vacant. Rene and Sue had been making it more "livable" or as my dad and Charlie liked to say. "Spending money in-between spending money." Charlie and Phil though an odd match spent a lot of time together and had a male bonding thing going on.

"Guys! We need to get going!" Charlie yelled. Just then a security guard walked in and Bree rolled her eyes.

"Mr. Swan we have you scheduled to leave ten minutes ago." He said professionally. Charlie gave us a pointed look and Leah stomped her foot. Rene laughed.

"Okay I have a perfect pink shirt it's Gucci?" Rene said suggestively to Leah as she took her hand and guided her upstairs to help her get dressed so Charlie wouldn't implode. Twenty minutes later we were all being escorted to the Forks Memo nursing home. Where the rich kept the relatives they refused to deal with in their old age. Seth's words not mine.

"Now I understand life is crazy. But she can know none of that got it?" Charlie said at all of us as we walked into the plush lobby of the nursing home.

"Why are you such a mamas boy?" Bree said under her breath and Leah disguised her laugh as a cough. Charlie's face got all red but otherwise didn't say anything. After going through to reception, Charlie guided us up the stairs to one of the "Princess" Suites. Which was just code for mad expensive. When we got to the door, he stopped.

"Alright one by one so she's not overwhelmed." He instructed.

"I'll go first if I could leave right after." Seth said. Charlie gave a single nod and Seth didn't wait another second before he went into the room to talk to her. The rest of us were waiting and after Seth we went in one by one. I was last. I stepped into the large room to see my beautiful paternal grandmother sitting in front of a vanity. She smelled like rich old woman…. If that had a particular smell. When she saw she me put both her hands over her heart.

"There she is…. Isabella." She said as she looked at me with her cold green eyes that still had some genuine emotion.

"Hi." I said timidly. She laughed a little laugh that sounded like bells and I smiled. I saw my face in hers… it was different. She tilted her head to the side as I sat at the edge of the bed in front of her.

"Well look at you.. you're beautiful." She whispered.

"Thank you." I said. "It's so nice to meet you." I said politely. She just stared at me and I started to squirm under her gaze.

"Is something wrong?" I asked.

"No." She said quietly as she sighed. "I just missed so much time." She said quietly to herself a she stirred some tea in a teacup I didn't even realize was in front of her. I just shook my head softly.

"It's okay we're all here now." I said with a smile. She reached over and touched my cheek.

"Yes… you're all here now. Thank God." She whispered. "Now tell me about the boy." Was all she said with a little laugh and I smiled before I told her about Jasper.
