This is all I've done with the little free time that I had.
Hope you enjoy this very, very short chapter.

Wipe Your Eyes
Chapter 11 - Treacherous
I can't decide if it's a choice
Getting swept away
I hear the sound of my own voice
Asking you to stay
And all we are is skin and bone trained to get along
Forever going with the flow, but you're friction
This slope is treacherous
This path is reckless...

That night, I didn't end up going back to the hospital. I was in no mood to deal with my parents. I just wanted to shower and to sleep.
When I was already on my bed, I found it hard to sleep because so many things are coming into my mind. Up until now, it was hard for me to believe that Mom was really home and that she was never going away.
There was also my father. I was still wondering how he got into an accident. I don't know if I was ready to forgive him yet. He did promise that he would change and make it up to me, but I still find it hard to believe his words when he broke his promise before. He said that nothing could break us, but he was the one who destroyed our family.
And then Jake. I wanted to be there for him because I know what he was young through and it was really hard to cope up to something like that. I wish I could just take away all the pain from his eyes.
He had no one now. I don't know if his father even cared to check on him. He hadn't come home since he started college.
It was funny that Jacob thought I had a great father though I already told him everything that happened in my life. He said he was even jealous of me because my dad was there, supporting me though I didn't care about him.
Three hours had passed since laid on my bed and it was now past one. I was really tired but I couldn't sleep. I hate feeling like this!
I grabbed my phone from the nightstand and speed-dialed Jake's number.
After three rings, he answered it.
"Jake-"
"Who's this?" A woman's voice cut me out.

"Oh God, Bella, how I've missed you!" Esme pulled me into a tight motherly hug and sobbed on my shoulder.
"I missed you, too," I told her as I returned her hug.
This was very wrong to say, but I loved her more than my own mother. She was the definition of a perfect mother. She took care of me and I could always talk to her when I have issues.
I never felt like my parents cared for me. They just kept asking me to this and to do that. I felt very pressured on making them proud of me. They wanted me to meet all their expectations. They almost disowned me when they found out that I wanted to be married at a young age to a man older than me.
That was the time that I fought for my right to make decisions of my own.
"Have you guys seen Nessie? It's been three days since she last texted me, and she said that she would just be staying home. I'm really getting worried, her phone rings but she never answered it," Alice said worriedly.
Edward sat up, making him wince in pain.
"I need to look for her," he said.
"Where do you think she could be?" Carlisle asked, pulling Esme on his side who was now worried sick.
A hundred scenarios entered my mind. Almost all of them were bad.
"Find her, you need to find her," I cried.
I need your suggestions! There are more than a hundred who added this to their lists, so please review. Reviews/comments help a lot.
