The following week, I was sitting at my spot when, over my head piece, I heard, "I NEED ALL HEAD SECURITY TO REPORT TO THE SECURITY ROOM!" Then a couple minutes later someone said something else, "Edward, come too. Where sending Jarred to take your place."
Jarred came in to cover me, he looked worried. "You can't tell me, can you?" I said. He shook his head. I ran to the room and everything was so hectic.
"Everyone needs to be looking!"
"No one should be sitting!"
Then the next thing I heard scared me, "Try her phone again!"
"Try whose phone!" I yelled, "What the hell is going on?" Everyone got quiet and stared at me.
Mark walked up to me and grabbed my arm, "Come with me, Edward," he said, pulling me into the other room. He turned and looked at me once the door closed behind us, "Bella's missing," he said.
I got quiet, "Excuse me?" I whispered.
He inhaled slowly, "Jake was watching her and I guess he left her alone for a second," he said, running his hand through his hair, "Jake said he heard her scream and turned around and some guy had her."
I was quiet. I didn't know what to say, "How are we trying to look for her?" I asked.
"We're trying to track her phone at the moment," he said. I nodded and walked out of the room to join the rest of the team to help find her.
I was almost on auto piolet, just going with the motions. Doing everything that I've ever learned to bring her home. I couldn't focus though. This wasn't just some girl I was trying to bring home here; it was my girl. just kept thinking about her. Was she okay? Was she scared? Would I ever even see her again?
Then the door opened and Jacob walked in. Immediately my façade dropped. I was now longer Edward Cullen, Secret Service work. I was now Edward Cullen, Bella Swan's boyfriend, and I was furious. "You bastard!" I said, jumping up from my chair. Then I jumped on Jacob and started beating the shit out of him, "She was your responsibility and you fucked up!"
"Edward!" Mark yelled, pulling me off Jacob. He brought me back into the back room and threw me to the ground.
"You need to calm down!" he yelled, "Or I'll send you home!"
I put my hands on my head, not even bothering to get h up from the floor. "I'm trying!" I yelled back. Then I felt the tears in my eyes.
"This is why you're not supposed to get emotionally involved," he said, "Didn't they teach you anything in training!"
I removed my hands from my head and pulled myself up so that I was sitting on the floor. "I didn't plan this," I said, "You can't pick who you love."
He sighed and kneeled down next to me, "I know," he said, "But you need to pull yourself together. Freaking out isn't going to help find her." I nodded. "Clean yourself up and then get back in there."
….
I sat in the security room for the rest of the night. I never left the room. I took a break for a few minutes to call my mom and tell her I wouldn't be coming home because of everything that was going on, but even then, I didn't leave the room, I simply stood in the corner of the room while I took the phone call. A lot of people worked in shifts, and they tried to get me to let them take over for me, but I just told them I was fine. Even Mike tried to get me to leave but I still refused. I was not leaving this room until I figured it out.
As I sat at the desk, looking over all the paperwork, I thought about Bella. I thought about her smile, her laugh, the way she said my name, the look in her eyes when was excited. I thought of the way she felt in my arms, I thought the way her lips felt against mine.
I remembered seeing her this morning. I remembered her smile as she kissed me good-bye, I remember the faint glow from her necklace-
Wait.
The faint glow from her necklace?
I jumped up from my seat, the chair falling to the floor behind me, causing everyone to turn and look at me.
Why would her necklace glow?
"Edward?" Mark said.
Unless.
"Edward!" President Swan called out.
My gaze snapped to him, "I figured it out," I said.
