Hey Guys, sorry for the wait. I haven't really been myself lately. A lot has happened since the summer. And on top of that I've been so depressed I haven't felt like any of my updates would be worthy for you guys to read. But since some of you are demanding an update here you go. Enjoy.
Chapter 11: Getting Renesmee
*Renesmee's POV*
I don't really remember anything that happened. It kind of happened all in a rush. Brian came home from work, looked to be drunk by his walking, and then he beat me. The usual. And then he apologized in the morning for about an hour but still it the pleads in his voice never quite made it to me. They seemed to have stopped dead in the air and then vanished. By now I had learned that my father didn't want help. Yes I'll admit that he loves me, but he is sick and needs someone to take care of him. But I am not that person. I can't be anymore. I nodded my head at him as he finished his long usual speech and then made my way up to my room. I shut my door and let my tired eyes roam around the room. And then the last thing I remember was that I collapsed.
"Renesmee? Can you hear me baby?" A soft voice whispered. I could tell I wasn't on the ground anymore because I was moving side to side in someone's arms. My eyes fluttered opened to see my father's beautiful face. His eyes held such worry as he stared back at me. His face had worry lines in the middle of his brow.
"Daddy?" I croaked out. Edward settled me on the ground and ran his hand down my cheek.
"Oh my angel." He whispered. He placed his lips on my forehead and let them linger there for a little while. I felt another pair of strong arms hoist me into the air and start walking.
"Jake." I smiled as I said his name burying his face in my hands. When I had a chance I looked around the yard we were in. Jake was taking me to a car I did not recognize. I saw police swarming the house, some were taking Brian to a car, and some were talking to Edward. I whimpered as Jake asked me the next question.
"Why did you leave Renesmee?" He asked softly as he held me in his arms as we sat together in the passenger's seat of the car. I just shook my head and buried my face deeper into his shirt. I felt another pair of arms rubbing my back.
"Were going home now baby." Edward said. "It's over." Edward kissed the back of my hair and then walked around to get into the driver's seat of the car. I looked in the back of the black Mercedes Benz half expecting to see Bella there. But she wasn't.
"Where's momma?" I asked. Jake looked to Edward. Daddy sighed.
"Renesmee, ever since you left she has been a wreck. She won't eat, she won't sleep, and she won't do anything. She just sits on your bed with your old stuffed bear and cries. She wanted to stay back and wait for you at home." Edward said sadly. I bit my lip as I cried silently to myself.
"She's the reason why I left." I said. Edward stopped the car at a red light and turned to look at me.
"What?" He asked confused, shock written all over his face.
"Brian told me if I didn't come with him he would kill Bella." I said. Edwards's hands coiled around the steering wheel. His grip tightening.
"That bastard." He said with venom in his voice. Jake growled.
"He's a mean man daddy, he had us all tricked. He pretended to love to me every day until he just snapped." I said. Edward's teeth clenched together.
"You won't ever see him again baby. They're putting him on trail." He said.
"He's been found guilty before." I said.
"They want to give him death this time." Edward said. I sucked in a sharp breath. Jake leaned down and kissed my cheek. I snuggled into his chest as we drove towards the airport. We walked through the building to our terminal. People were staring at me. I must have been a sight to see.
"You look beautiful." Jake said wrapping his arm around my waist. We boarded the plane and Jake let me have the window seat. I threw up a couple of times on the plane into a barf bag and excused myself to go to the bathroom. I sat down on the toilet and cried. I cried for myself, for my family, for Jake, for my friends. Everyone who had an impact in my life. Everyone that I had let down. I heard a knock on the door.
"It's Jake, Ness can I come in?" He asked me. I reached out an unlocked the door. Jake squatted down and took my hands in his.
"You going to tell me why you are crying?" He asked.
"I just let everyone down that I love….that love me." I said. Jake closed his eyes and took in a deep breath.
"You didn't let us down, you just scared us is all." Jake said surely. "We all really missed you." He said. "I missed you." He said.
"I missed you too." I said.
"Come on." Jake smiled. He took my hand and led me out of the bathroom. Yes people were staring at us in disgust but it didn't bother us. We were just happy to be together. Edward took my bruised hand as I walked past him to get to my seat and kissed each knuckle.
"I love you daddy." I said softly.
"I love you too my Renesmee." He said. And then I sat down in my seat and closed my eyes, resting on Jake, as I thought about finally going home.
