Chapter 11
JPOV
She was just staring at me not even bothering to look up to make sure it was her beloved sister at the door.
I heard her footsteps coming closer and closer. "Sorry for the hold up. That Cullen guy is such a drag."
There she was, her blonde hair still straight but messed with leaves and dirt. Her sister was trying to pick out the leaves but she swatted her away. She came forward and crouched down so we could meet eye to eye.
"So I guess this means I win?"
"Am I dead?"
"No." her expression was stunned.
"Then you lost."
She began to giggle. Not a cute little girly giggle like Bella does, more of a 'your funny but I'm still going to kill you' giggle.
Her fingernails began to trace around my jaw line. I swatted her hand away. That when she said, "Scarlett?"
I immediately began to feel pain, I tried to move my fingers and the pain increased. I felt paralyzed.
She continued tracing my face with her fingernails, gently, but it still irritated me.
"Stop" I managed.
"You know you are a cutie. Isn't he sister?"
"Yes, it's a shame though."
"It truly is. Why do you want me to stop? Does this annoy you?"
"Yes"
"Then it's working. Scarlett you can stop it now."
The pain left when she commanded the order. Her fingers stopped. "Better?"
I growled in return.
She stood up with a pout on her face. "Don't you growl at me." She pointed her finger accusingly at me.
"What else do you want me to do? Quack?"
The dark haired one snorted. She just glared at her sister.
"What do you want with me?"
"I have plans for you don't worry." The blonde one said.
"I don't date bloodsuckers sorry."
"Don't flatter yourself. You're my hostage."
"What?" I muttered.
"You're my hostage, you're my way to get to the Cullen's. Were gonna trade, me and that guy with the human."
"Oh great I'm screwed."
"Don't worry, I'm sure the human will protect you" she giggled.
For some reason that wasn't so reassuring.

On the way back to the house I didn't speak to Edward. I walked in front of him to make a statement. He obviously got the hint and kept his distance.
Finally after a few silent moments on the couch he said, "Bella I…"
I got up and left to the bedroom. A second after I shut the door there was a knock. "Bella please. May I come in?"
"No"
"Bella, I…I"
I opened the door. "I know you don't like him, but he's in my life. So you…you'll just have to get used to it."
"Bella I'm so sorry." His eyes looked sincere.
I moved aside so he could come in.
We just hugged each other for hours until someone knocked at the door. Edward tensed up. He let go of his hold and zoomed to the door.
I hurried up behind him, it was dark but I could see a small girly figure. And deep red glowing eyes.
It was definitely a vampire, maybe it was that girl who took Jake. I couldn't hear what they were saying but it was definitely a girl voice.
"Bella" she said.
I turned on the lamp. Alice?
