'B, where are you?' I heard Jacob shouting. He'd followed me. I got up to try and get away, I didn't want to speak or look at him right now. I began to hurry towards the park gate, but ran straight into him..Jacob. He stood fiercely in front of me, blocking my way.

'Jake. Just leave me alone please..' I began to beg, becoming scared. I'd never seen him like this before. He began to walk closer towards me, and I began to back away from him until my back hit a wall. There was no way I could get away. He stood in front of me, lifted my head up and began to kiss me forcefully. Using his other hand to clench my hands together to stop me from defending myself. I used all my might to escape from his hold and tried to push him away. 'Get off me' I shouted, but he wouldn't listen. He continued kissing me, and began kissing my neck. I felt like I was going to be sick, the man I thought I could trust...my best friend. He stopped and looked me in the eye.

'You could have been with me, but no you chose him' Jacob spat. I knew he'd always wanted to be with me but I thought he understood. 'Look at what you could of had' he said, before starting to kiss my neck again. 'I mean your sleeping with his father so you can fuck me too!' I began struggling again terrified of what he was going to do.

'Help me!' I began to scream. 'Jake! Get off me!' I shouted as he became more forceful.

'Isabella?' I could hear someone shouting. 'Isabella?'

'Looks like your lovers arrived' Jacob whispered into my ear before turning and running off. I fell too my knees breaking down. I thought he was different.

'Is..Is what's wrong? What's happened? I heard you screaming.' I heard Carlisle's voice panic, whilst he crouched down beside me. He moved a strand of my hair out of my eyes and used the pad of his thumb to wipe my tears away. 'Isabella what's he done?' I began crying again and fell into his arms sobbing into his chest. Neither of us said anything for a while, just sat with Carlisle holding me and every once in a while kissing my forehead. I began to shiver, it was getting quite chilly. Carlisle let go of me, to take of his jacket and wrapped it around my shoulders to try and keep me warm. He then stood up, and put his hand out for me to help me up. I willingly took hold of it and we began to walk towards where he had parked his Jaguar. He wrapped his arm around my waist, helping me to walk towards the car. I climbed into the passenger side and Carlisle began to drive back towards the house.

'Do you want to talk about it?' Carlisle spoke gently. I stared out of the window, trying to ignore the question. I didn't want to talk. 'Isabella?' He asked again, trying to pressure me. I continued to ignore him. He pulled up outside of the house, and turned to look at me. I opened the car door straight away and walked to the front door using my key to unlock it. I ran to the bathroom, turned on the sink tap and began scrubbing my neck, trying to get rid of him. I looked in the mirror, I looked a mess. My mascara had run, and tears were still falling from my eyes. I knew it was a bad idea going to that dinner, why couldn't I just follow my gut instinct and not have gone? Then none of this would have happened. I turned of the tap and sat on the edge of the bath tub, when I heard a soft tap on the door.

'Is..please open the door?' Carlisle whispered. I ignored him, I knew it wasn't his fault and I shouldn't be ignoring him but I felt awful. 'Isabella are you okay? Please don't do anything stupid baby' He started to worry, concern in his voice. I heard him run down the hallway and run back towards the door and kicking it with all his strength, breaking the lock on the door. He rushed inside and saw me staring blankly tears running down my face. He crouched down in front of me.

'Have you taken anything?' He asked looking me in the eyes and checking my pulse. I shook my head slowly. 'What's he done to you?' I could see him beginning to well up and a tear began to fall down his face.

'He...he..' I began stuttering. 'If..if you hadn't come Carlisle..he would have..r..r..raped me' I broke down into his arms and began to explain everything that had happened including what he had said at dinner. Jake didn't even seem to care that I was pregnant either. Worse still..I was going to have to see him tomorrow.

'It'll be alright baby..I'll sort this' he soothed, stroking my arm. I turned to look him in the eyes I couldn't believe he had even said that.

'No Carlisle! Its not alright!' I cried. 'If I wasn't sleeping with you, I would have never gone on that dinner..Edward wouldn't have let me go, I would have preferred his punch to my face than what j..' I screamed. I couldn't even bring myself to say his name. Carlisle stood up, and walked out of the bathroom when I heard a smashing noise and then a bang. I winced at the noise and slowly walked out of the bathroom and towards my bedroom whilst Carlisle continued breaking whatever it was he was breaking. That night, I didn't sleep much. Kept tossing and turning and crying into the pillow...all I wanted was Carlisle to stay and hold me.

I woke the next morning screaming and crying. I punched my pillow out of anger. When I heard my phone beginning to ring.

'We were both young when I first saw you.

I close my eyes and the flashback starts:

I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air.'

I knew instantly it was Edward, that was the ringtone I had for him and him only. It was our song. The song that was playing when we had our first kiss and our relationship became official..the song we danced to at our wedding. I picked up the phone.

'Edward' I whispered.

'Hey angel'. He spoke. I smiled for the first time all night/morning. I still loved him..he was still my husband..my first love..I just didn't love him as much as I loved Carlisle.

'Its so good to hear your voice. I miss you.'

'I miss you too. Listen, I'm really really sorry but I won't be able to come to the scan' my mood instantly went downhill.

'Why? Why not?' I weeped.

'I've got to go to work, they won't let me have the day off. I've tried my best but they're refusing. I'm so sorry. I've spoke to dad and he said he'll go with you. He'll understand everything better' Edward explained. A tear came to my eye. It seemed he didn't care anymore.

'Fine..' I whispered, hanging up before he could reply to me. I got up and walked to the bathroom, taking the face cloth and cleaning my face before brushing my teeth. I walked back to my room and got changed into a pair of jeggings, a white top and dolly shoes. I walked down the stairs to see Carlisle sitting at the table with a glass of brandy, cuts all over his fists and a tear stained face.

'I'm sorry' I whispered. He looked up at me and another tear rolled from his eye.

'No..your right. If you weren't with me this would never have happened to you!' He cried. I rushed over to him and took hold off his hand.

'Don't say that..' I cried. 'Carlisle. I love you nothing can change that. It wasn't your fault, it was noones fault. I had no right to blame you'

'You had every right' he shouted slamming his free hand down on the table.

'No..no I didn't. If you hadn't have shouted, or came when you did..he would have r..raped me Carlisle' he looked at me and pulled me down onto his lap, wrapping his arms around my waist and putting his head on my shoulder. He looked up into my eyes and placed his hand on my stomach.

'I won't let anybody hurt you again Is' he whispered. 'I know it's been a long night, but now I'm here it's alright. I don't mind walking in your shoes. We'll take each step together, 'til you come back to center. You know that I know the real you...The demons are screaming so loud in your head. You're tired, you're broken, you're cut and you're bruised. But nothing's too heavy – just hold on' he whispered into my ear. I kissed him on the cheek and put my head on his chest.

'Will you come with me today..I don't want to be alone with J..him?' I asked quietly. So quietly I was surprised he actually heard me.

'I wouldn't let you go by yourself darling' he answered and I moved off of his lap to grab my coat. Carlisle quickly bandaged his hand up and followed me out of the door. I climbed into the drivers seat, there was no way I was going to let him drive right now. He didn't say anything and climbed into the passenger seat. We drove to the surgery and walked hand in hand to the entrance. I quickly signed in, and was told to go to room 6, and wait for the nurse..that nurse being Jake. We walked to the room and I sat on the bed, with Carlisle by my side. After about 5 minutes, the door slowly began to open, and Carlisle gave my hand a reassuring squeeze. Jake popped his head around the door and slowly began to walk towards me. I suddenly began to panic and started to shake.

'Bella..I'm so sorry. I don't know what came over me' he spoke brushing his hand through his hair.

'C..c..carlisle' I stuttered, my hand shaking in his. Jacob walked closer towards me and took hold of my free hand.

'I'm sorry..I hate myself for what I did' I started to cry and snatched my hand away. Carlisle suddenly let go of my hand and ran round to the side of the bed where Jake was standing. He pushed Jake to the wall using his arm to pin him there by the neck.

'I'm going to fucking kill you' Carlisle shouted. Jake was turning red and began gasping for breath. I stood up and tried to pull Carlisle away.

'You'll kill him! Let go of him!' I was screaming. 'Carlisle!' He let go of him, and Jake instantly fell the the floor clutching his neck and gasping. Carlisle turned to me anger in his eyes.

'Move' he said through gritted teeth. I backed away from him and watched in shock as he started kicking Jake in the ribs. 'You think its okay to assault a woman do you?' He was screaming, he knelt down and began punching Jake in the face repeatedly. Blood began to pour from Jake's face, before Carlisle stood up and kicked him some more. Jake started to go limp and hardly breathing.

'CARLISLE!' I screamed.

'Tell anyone I did this to you and I swear you won't make it through next time and trust me, speak to my lady again let alone look at her and I'll kill you. Oh and another thing if Isabella wasn't in the room right now you definitely wouldn't of survived' I heard him whisper into his ear. He quickly stood up pressed the emergency button to notify people there was an emergency. Grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the door. I quickened up my pace to keep up with him.

'We'll go to a private clinic to find out the sexes' he spoke. I didn't reply, just climbed into the car and drove to the private centre which he directed me too.

'He could be dead..' I whispered still in shock. I never knew Carlisle was capable of doing something like that.

'Good..after what he tried to do to you, he should be dead!'

'They'll trace it back to you, they knew he was my nurse and that it was my appointment slot' I choked.

'If he has any sense, he'll know not to press charges' he replied. I got out of the car and began walking towards the reception.

'Hiya, I was wondering if you had any spaces for a sexing scan please?' I asked politely. The brunette receptionist began typing into the computer. She looked up and smiled.

'Your in luck, we've got one in about 10minutes if you'd like that one?' I nodded enthusiastically.

'Yes please? How much will it be please?' I smiled. She began typing on the computer again, and asking for my details.

'If you'd like a gender scan, with a 4D view, which also comes with 3 black and white 2D images and the scan recorded onto DVD, it would be $162 or a basic 2D gender scan with no extras is $39?' She read off the computer.

'Is there an extra charge for two babies? I'm having twins' I beamed, rubbing my tummy.

'No extra charge. Same price.'

'Ermm..I'll have the $162 one please. Do you accept card?' Carlisle walked up behind me and put his hand on the small of my back.

'How much is it?' He asked the secretary, smiling showing his gleaming white teeth. She turned her gaze to him, and her eyes twinkled.

'Ermm..its..its $162' she stuttered, playing with her hair. I rolled my eyes and sighed, I know he's handsome as anything but really hitting on him whilst he's with me having a gender scan.

'We get too see them 4D hunny, and we get pictures and videos of our little miracles' I smiled, standing on my tiptoes and giving him a quick peck on the lips before tuning back smirking at the woman behind the desk.

'Yes, we take cards' she muttered coldly. I laughed quietly under my breath.

'We're paying by cash' Carlisle replied smiling again.

'Of course! Anything for you sir!' She giggled, dropping her pen purposely so she could bend down in front of him. Carlisle laughed and she stood back up, giving Carlisle the eye. I stared at Carlisle furiously.

'Your welcome to him love' I said leaning over the desk so she could hear me clearly. I turned and walked away to sit in the waiting area. I heard Carlisle say something too her, and they both began to chuckle. He handed her the money, said something again and then walked over to sit by me. I moved slightly to the left so there was a bit of space between us. I looked over at the secretary to see her checking Carlisle out. Carlisle looked at me and then gazed to where I was looking before looking back at me.

'What was all that about? Bit childish wasn't it?' Carlisle laughed sarcastically.

'Childish really? You may as well of fucked her right there and then on the desk the way you two were going' I said raising my voice so she could hear. I was absolutely furious. How could he stand there flirting with some woman right in front of me...especially after everything with been through.

'Keep your voice down..people are looking' Carlisle tried hushing me. I shook my head in disbelief and gritted my teeth.

'I don't care Carlisle. I'm sorry but I really don't care, after what happened last night and this morning and you go and flirt with the first woman you see..' I said in a hushed angry voice.

'Is..are you being serious? I was just being friendly. Your just paranoid, its hormones..' he stated picking up a magazine and started flicking threw it.

'No, its not hormones Carlisle Cullen!' I shouted. 'Why wouldn't I not think it I mean you fucked me on the side?' I nearly screamed at him, everybody turned to look at us, a few letting out a small gasp.

'This is not the time or the place Isabella..you know I would never do that to you!'

'Isabella Cullen?' A lady shouted coming out of a room nearby. I stood up, and smiled at her determined not to take my anger out on anybody else. 'Hello, I'm Carmen. I'll be doing the scan for you today, we're just through here' she explained. I walked through the door and realised Carlisle had followed also. He sat down beside me and put his hand on my knee. I looked at him, but didn't say anything not wanting to cause a scene in front of the person who would be doing the scan. She sat down in front of us and began to ask questions about how far along I was, when my last scan was and various other questions.

'That's great. If you'd like to lie down on the bed and roll your top us so I can do the scan then please?' I got up and lay on the bed, rolling my top up to just under my breasts. Carmen put the jelly on my stomach and began using the dopler to see the babies. As soon as I saw them my mood uplifted. Baby one was sucking his/her thumb whilst baby two lay there before kicking my stomach. I laughed.

'Well there's our footballer' I giggled turning to Carlisle. He took my hand in his, kissing it and smiling looking back at the screen a tear coming too his eye.

'Right, let's find out the sexes then shall we?' Carmen spoke.

'Ooh, yes please!' I grinned. She moved the dopler some more and began pointing at the screen showing and explaining to us how she knows the genders.

'Looks like your going to be having two baby girls. Congratulations' she smiled taking the dopler off my stomach. I jumped up hugging Carlisle, smiling from ear to ear. Two little girls, my little princesses. I was so excited. 'If you go back to the reception she'll have the dvd and photo's ready for you as they've been sent there ready to print out and burn onto disk.'

'Thank you so much' me and Carlisle both said at the same time. She nodded seeing how happy we were and opened the door allowing us to leave. We both walked back to the receptionist with our hands around each others waists. The secretary didn't even look at Carlisle once, just got straight to work on getting the dvd and prints ready. Carlisle put both his hands on my waist and pulled me into his warm embrace. I rested my head on his chest and he kissed my forehead.

'I love you Isabella Marie Swan' Carlisle whispered. '..and even though these babies aren't actually mine, and I'll never be able to look at them as my own..I'll still love them and their mommy' he whispered sadly. I looked up and looked into his sad eyes.

'We're going to make this work baby..I promise' I replied smiling sympathetically. The secretary passed us our things in a small bag.

'I'm sorry..' She apologised looking at Carlisle and me. I nodded smiling at her. All the anger suddenly gone. We took our things and slowly walked hand in hand out of the clinic and made our way home. All of the emotions from yesterday and today completely gone.
