Three days had passed and nothing changed. She was still stuck in Cal's basement and she felt sick every morning and being trapped and constantly taunted did not help any. Rose knew she had to be strong for the sake of her child. She had to ignore the fact that Cal gave her scraps to eat, just so the baby got as much food as it could.
"I promise you. When you are born I would spoil you rotten" She said silently to her baby. She was still flat and hardly showing. She was entering her third month soon and Rose knew if she was stuck her for longer she would start to show and she was not sure what Cal would do to her baby.
Rose walked around her room quietly, if she made too much noise the werewolf Cal had put to guard her door would come in and tie her down. Rose was thinking about Jack. She remembered Carlisle and Edward telling her he would not be the same anymore. Rose could not help but wonder what about Jack would be different. She wondered if the extra senses he had made him a better artist or if it made him better at reading people. She wondered how he would look without those beautiful blues he possessed; she also wondered if like Edward, Jack had developed some sort of incredible power. She spent her time thinking of him and the life they would have once he rescued her from all this.

James was trying to adjust. Like they had all experienced, it was not easy being a new born and having to feed only on animals. James had yet to figure out what his power was exactly, but he did notice he was able to predict what everyone was going to do or say before they do or say it. He had not told anyone this yet, so he did not know for sure if it was a vampire thing or his own thing, After all he had only been a vampire for three days
"Edwards been looking for you" James heard a familiar voice say. He had left the house early and had gone off on his own, so he could have space to think without his grandfather hearing his thoughts.
James looked up at Jack and smiled lamely as the other man took a sit beside him under the tree. A human gesture, but both Jack and James were humans not so long ago, it was hard to forget habits.
"My father has started a search for me" James said "We did not exactly depart on the best note" Jack looked at him in understanding. Last time he saw Rose, she was being dragged into a car like she was some kind of…..
Jack did not like to remember that night. He hated himself for not being strong enough to stop it. To kill Cal then and there and put an end to their misery. Now they did not know where to search for Rose
"He really hated you, you know" James said knowing Jack was thinking about Cal and Rose
"I know, he did try to shoot me a couple of times" Jack said and James smirked
"We'll find her. I have a feeling he took her to long island. Tonight we'll set off and go and get her, while the others deal with the Alaskan pack" James said. In the last few days Alice got visions of the Alaskan pack coming closer to them, they had been able to tell the Cullen's had left California and with the help of the wares here, they got the information on where to find them.
"I want to do that, but I can't just leave. The Cullen's have been nothing but great to me. They need our help now, so we have to stay and fight with them. Besides I highly doubt Cal would really hurt Rose. He might not treat her right, but he won't hurt her. I'm sure of it" James knew Jack was not so sure of what he said, but instead of saying anything, he just patted him in the back
"Everything would work out fine" He said

Bella sat quietly in the living room. She had a book in her hand, but she was not really reading it. Esme, Alice and Rosalie had all gone out to feed. Carlisle was somewhere planning a fighting strategy with Jasper and Emmet. Jack and James were nowhere to be found and she did not exactly know where Edward was either, that is until she felt a presence behind her.
"Still trying to read my mind?" She asked and she heard him sigh as he walked in front of her
"You are not normal, Isabella" He said and Bella acted like she was offended. She really liked Edward as a friend. He was the calmest of all his siblings, even though Jack seemed calm also, but it was only because he worried of Rose the whole time. When he was in high spirits, he was a loud one. Edward though was a very book warm person, and he was quite witty. He was good at playing the piano and he just had a certain charm that she had not seen in any other person.
"Says the living dead man trying to read my mind" Bella retorted and Edward laughed before he sat in the couch beside her.
"What are you reading?"
"A sappy love story called Pride and Prejudice" She said and Edward stuck is tongue out in fake disgust
"Alice has read that book over sixty times yet she can't get enough of it." Edward said and Bella smiled
"It's a good book; I'm just not a romantic person"
"What sorts of books do you like then, suspense, mystery?"
"Yeah, those are good" Bella said smiling at him.
"You know if I could read your mind, we won't be having this conversation, no need for an interview" Bella laughed
"It's a good thing because we get to know each other like regular people do" Edward smirked. His face leaned in closer to hers and Bella felt her breathing stop, she was nervous and scared about what was about to happen to her, but she did not move. She wanted him to kiss her and just as she had closed her eyes, she heard a loud crash and the moment was gone. Edward was up and around the corner like a lightning bolt. It was Emmett that had jumped from the stairs to the floor
"Take Bella away, they would be here anytime now" he told Edward
Soon Jack and James were standing in the hallway and the three women not far behind them. The sky had turned dark all of a sudden and Carlisle and Jasper came down the stairs immediately
"Okay" Carlisle said "Here's the plan"
I know it's been a while, but I sort of lost my inspiration, but thanks to my sister I think I might have a bit of something in me to finish this story.
