Bella's POV

Edward gently set me back on my feet as I pulled away from his lips slowly. I smiled looking into his eyes, he stroked my cheek. I grabbed his hand gently and led him back to the picnic, we started to pick up everything before heading to the car. I got into the car while Edward packed everything into the trunk, he got into the drivers seat before pulling out of the parking lot at the beach. I couldn't stop smiling and looking at the ring, I spent a lot of time dreaming of what it would be like to marry Edward and now I didn't have to dream anymore, it was really happening.

"What are you thinking of love?" He asked.

"Oh nothing." I said.

"Nothing?" He questioned.

"Yeah, nothing." I said smiling.

"Okay, if you say so." He said taking my left hand in his and holding it.

"Do you think Alice knows already?" I asked him.

"Most likely." He said.

I groaned.

"And if I know Alice, that means she'll be waiting to attack you." He said.

"I know." I said.

We were already home, I was mentally bracing myself for what was to come. I was excited to tell the family, that is if Alice hadn't spread the news already, but I was dreading Alice's attack.

"Ready?" Edward asked.

"Ready as ever." I said.

I took his hand before walking into the house, just as expected Alice let out her famous squeal and attacked me with the tightest hug she has ever given me. She jumped up and down while saying that she couldn't wait to start planning everything and picking out the dresses. I rolled my eyes before the rest of the family walked in.

"What's going on?" Esme asked.

I smiled and led Edward over to everyone, I took a deep breath before holding up my left hand for them all to see.

"Oh my god!" Rosalie screamed.

She rushed over to me before giving me a hug, everyone else followed hugging and shaking hands with Edward. Everyone was happy and excited, the next hour was spent talking about the wedding. At that point I was ready to spend some time with the most important little man in my life, I rushed up the stairs while everyone continued to talk. I opened the nursery door and walked over to the crib, I gently lifted the sleeping baby out of the crib.

"My little man." I whispered.

I sat down in the rocking chair and rocked as I touched his little nose followed by his little hand that stuck out of the blanket. I smiled down at him as he took a deep breath and let it out, I smoothed his brown hair down feeling his soft baby hair on my skin. I stood up and walked out of the room yawning, I walked into the bedroom before shutting the door and laying Matthew down on the bed. I climbed in next to him laying down, I rested my head on my arm as I watched him sleep before I slowly closed my eyes.

I yawned and slowly opened my eyes, I noticed that Matthew wasn't on the bed anymore. I sat up slowly and looked around, I got out of the bed quickly taking a quick look around the room. I ran to the nursery and checked the crib, nothing. I started to panic, I rushed down the stairs and into the living room. No one was in there, I ran in the kitchen to find everyone in there, everyone except for Matthew.

"Where is Matthew?" I asked.

"Upstairs in the nursery." Edward said.

"No he's not." I said.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"I fell asleep with him in the bed last night and I woke up and he was gone!" I told him.

"Yeah, I put him in the crib." He said.

"And he's not there!" I yelled.

"Okay, just calm down." He said.

We spent the next ten minutes looking before we came back downstairs, I was already crying.

"Edward..." I whispered.

He turned to look at me.

"Where is my baby?" I cried.

He walked over to me and wrapped me in his arms.

"We'll find him, we have too." He said.

"My little man is gone..." I said clutching his blanket in my hand.

I looked at the family who looked just as shocked and scared as I did, I knew that they would be crying too if they could.

I gasped as I shot up in bed, I gasped for breath as I looked around.

"You okay?" Edward asked.

"Where's Matthew?" I asked.

"In his crib." He said looking at me weird.

I shot out of bed almost tripping, I ran into the nursery and over to the crib. I almost died of relief when I saw him looking at me as he moved his arms and legs slowly as he started to fuss. I picked him up in my arms and held him tightly, it was just a dream.

"What's going on?" Edward asked.

"Nothing. Just a bad dream." I said.

"Must have been a bad one." He said wrapping his arms around me.

I nodded.

"Edward?" I said after a few minute of silence.

"Yeah?" He said.

"Do you think there's a chance that Jane is thinking of taking of taking Matthew?" I asked.

"What?" He asked looking at me.

"Do you think she might take Matthew." I said.

"Why do you say that?" He asked.

"That was my dream, well I wasn't sure it was her but shes after me so it had to be her." I told him.

"Love, no one is going to take him." He said.

I looked down at Matthew who was just looking around the room, he was clueless to everything that was going on.

"What are we going to do Edward..." I said walking over and putting him back in the crib.

"We'll figure something out." He said.

"How? I'm a new mother, I'm still trying to figure it all out. And you heard Jane, she's coming back and we don't know when!" I said.

"We will figure it all out some how, lets just not worry about it right now." He said.

I nodded.

"Will you just go! I'll be fine!" I said laughing.

"No going to the bookstore?" He said.

I looked at him like he was stupid.

"Right." He said.

He kissed me picking me off my feet and spinning me around. I laughed as he set me down on my feet, Alice and Emmett walked passed rolling their eyes.

"I'll see you in a few hours." He said.

I nodded, "Okay."

"Please be careful." He said holding my hand.

"I'll call Charlie if there is any problems." I told him.

"Okay." He said before turning to leave.

"I love you." I said.

"I love you too." He said smiling before leaving.

I turned around to face Matthew who was in his little bouncy seat, I smiled a little.

"It's just you and me little man." I said.

I went and locked all of the windows and doors just for safety. I went into the kitchen and started to make some extra bottles so I wouldn't have to later on. I stuck them into the fridge just to be safe, I turned around and walked back into the living room. I picked up the TV remote and turned it on, the shopping channel was on, and it just so happened that they were doing a wedding segment.

"That is just like you Alice." I said laughing.

What I didn't know was that I was being watched, Jacob was standing in the shadow by the stairs watching me. I picked Matthew up and held him in my arms as he slept.

"How about that dress? Huh? Would mommy look good in that one?" I asked him bouncing him.

He made a noise, I laughed.

"Yeah, I don't think I like it either." I said biting my bottom lip.

I looked down at him.

"Wow. I'm getting married. How crazy is that? I have a kid and I'm getting married." I said.

I set Matthew back in his bouncy seat before turning around, I froze when I saw someone standing in the shadow in the corner. I backed up slowly until I was next to Matthew willing to give my life to protect this little guy. I was about to ask who it was when they stepped out.

"Jake?" I gasped.

He didn't answer, he just looked angry, and it kind of looked like he was on something, like drugs.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

"What do you think?" He snapped.

I jumped at the way he answered.

"You don't look okay." I said.

"I saw you." He said.

"You saw me?" I asked.

"With Edward at the beach." He said coming closer.

"How much?" I asked.

"Just the part where that blood sucker got down on one knee and proposed, and you said yes!" He growled.

"You getting mad at me because I said yes?" I asked.

"No, I'm getting mad because your marrying that monster!" He yelled.

"Don't call him a monster!" I snapped.

"That's what he is! That's what his life is! Do you really want to bring Matthew into this?" He asked.

"That's none of your business!" I screamed.

"Oh yeah? So I'm not his Uncle Jacob anymore?" He asked.

"I didn't say that and you know it!" I screamed.

Matthew was crying, I turned my back to go get him, and that's when everything went black.

Edward's POV

I walked into the house with the family right behind me, we immediately smelt the stench. We thought nothing of it though, we knew it was Jacob and that they were probably hanging out upstairs. The next thing proved that theory wrong, there was a puddle of blood, not a lot, but enough for us to tell that it was Bella's. Jake's scent hid it at first, but I could tell now.

I looked around the room, Matthews bouncy seat was turned upside down and there was no sign of Bella. I felt like I couldn't breathe, even if I didn't need too. I ran upstairs to check the bedroom, I checked every single room upstairs and there was no sign of her or Matthew. I ran downstairs, I ran through the kitchen and stopped dead in my tracts. Bella was tied to a chair and completely knocked out. I ran to her sliding on my knees as I started to shake her.

"Bella? Bella!" I screamed.

"Oh God!" Alice cried as the family rushed in.

I shook her more slapping her face lightly, she started to stir, I looked at the back of her neck where I found where the bleeding was coming from. She winced as I touched it, she started lift her head slowly only for it droop back down.

"Bella. What happened?" I asked taking her face in my hand and bringing it back up.

She groaned.

"Bella! I need to know what happened!" I told her.

"Edward. Let me try." Carlisle said.

I sighed and stood up as he knelt down in front of her.

"Bella honey, can you tell me who did this to you?" He asked.

"Ja... Jake." She whispered.

My hands balled into fists.

"Was he angry with you?" He asked her.

"He saw Edward proposing to me." She said still groggy but getting a little better.

"Do you know why he did this to you?" Carlisle asked as he worked on getting her untied.

"We were yelling at each other when Matthew started to cry, I turned to get him and that's all I remember." She said taking breaks in between a few words to breathe.

"And where is Matthew?" He asked making the family freeze.

She opened her mouth to say something but closed it, her head drooped back down as she struggled to stay conscious.

"Bella... Where is Matthew?" He asked again.

"I... In his bouncy seat." She said.

"No he's not Bella, where else could he be?" He asked.

"I... I don't know." She whispered.

"Call the cops!" Carlisle said standing up and running to the living room.

"Edward..." She gasped lifting her head a little.

"It's fine, he's going to be fine." I said rushing over to her.

I got her free of the ropes before she fell into me.

Bella's POV

"And you don't remember anything else?" The cop asked.

"No, that's it." I said shaking my head.

"Okay, we'll let you know." He said.

"That's it?" Edward asked.

"I'm sorry but that's all we can do right now." He said.

"But he's missing!" I snapped.

"A person has to be missing for 24 hours before we can really search." He said.

"He's not a person he's a newborn baby!" I screamed.

"I'm sorry ma'am." He said.

"Bull shit." I snapped as walked away.

I saw Charlies cruiser pull up as he got out as fast as he could, I ran over.

"Dad!" I gasped.

"What happened?" He said.

"Matthew's gone! And the idiot wont do anything about it!" I cursed.

"We'll find him Bells, I promise." He said pulling me into a hug and kissing the top of my head.

"Pierce lets get a team out there to look for Matthew." He called.

"But sir, it hasn't been 24 hours yet." Pierce told him.

"I know that." He said.

"The policy-"

"I know about the policy, but I could care less about the damn policy when its my grandson who is missing." He snapped.

"I had no idea sir." Pierce said.

"Yeah well keep that in mind the next time you refuse to look for a mothers baby." He snapped walking back to his cruiser to look.

I walked into Edward's arms and hugged him, he rubbed my back kissing the top of my head. I watched as the cars sped out of the driveway with their sirens blaring and the lights flashing. I walked inside with Edward who helped me sit on the couch.

"You should get some sleep." Edward said.

"I cant, I cant even think of sleeping while he's out there somewhere." I said the tears coming.

"They'll find him, in the mean while you need to get some rest." He told me.

"I mean, he could be cold and hungry or hurt, and I cant help him because I... I don't know where he is!" I cried covering my face.

"Come here," He said pulling me into his arms, "It's not your fault, you were attacked by someone you thought wouldn't hurt you."

"And he has my baby! Well, that we know of! It could be anyone! Even Jane could be a suspect! And then what do we tell the cops? Oh, I'm sorry but a crazy vampire took him because she is after me?" I sobbed.

He didn't say anything, he just rocked me as I cried into his shirt, it didn't take long after he started to hum my lullaby that I started to drift off.

"Bella. Eat." Edward said.

I took a bite off food only to make him be quiet, I looked around the room expecting to hear a baby cry. I got up from the table and cleared my plate, I walked upstairs folding my arms over my stomach as I walked into the nursery. The crib was unmade and untouched from the last time I got him from the crib, I walked over and smoothed down the blanket that was on the changing table. I grabbed the teddy bear that was sitting on top of the toy chest the Alice got for him, I held it in my arms gently, I cried quietly into it so no one would hear me. I felt arms wrap around me, I didn't need to look up to know that it was Edward. I cried more into the bear before he took it from me setting it down, he turned me so that I was facing him.

"I cant just stand here while he's out there! I have to go look for him!" I said starting to walk away.

Edward grabbed my arm to stop me, "Bella."

"No! Let me go!" I cried.

"The cops are looking, there's nothing that you can do." He whispered.

"I'm his mother! I have to look!" I told him.

"Bella please!" He begged.

"No! I'm going to go look for my son!" I snapped.

I managed to get out of his grip as I rushed downstairs, I grabbed my coat and put it on. I zipped it up and threw my hood on because it was raining pretty hard outside. I ran to my truck taking one last look up at the nursery window where Edward was looking down from. I opened the door to my truck and climbed in, I started it easily before buckling up. I drove to the first place in mind, it didn't take me long, and true I was speeding a little bit. I pulled up, there were cop cars here and Charlie was standing at the front door talking to him. I got out of my truck and ran to the porch climbing up the stairs.

"Bella." Charlie said shocked.

"Tell me where he is!" I cried looking at Jake with tears running down my face.

"I don't know what your talking about." Jake told me.

"Tell me where my baby is right now Jake!" I snapped.

"I don't have him!" He told me.

"I don't care that you attacked me, I don't care that you hurt me, but I wont stand around and let you hurt him!" I cried.

"I don't have your baby! Now leave me alone!" He screamed.

"Are you on drugs?" I asked.

I never realized this before but his eyes were blood shot red, he couldn't stop fidgeting and he was acting very strange.

"What? No!" He lied.

"Please! Just give me my baby back!" I sobbed.

Charlie grabbed on to my shoulders and told his partner to finish up with the questions. Charlie led me to his cruiser, I let out a loud sob as I was pulled into his arms. He kissed my head and rubbed my back while I cried loudly into his chest.

"I... I want my baby back!" I cried.

"I know honey, and we'll find him." He told me.

"He's just a baby!" I cried.

"I know." He whispered rubbing my back more.

"Bella?" Esme said knocking on the door.

I was standing by the window looking out of it blankly. I haven't slept for hours upon hours, but I couldn't sleep, and I couldn't eat. Esme walked over to the window slowly and set a tray of food on the table next to the window. She brushed the hair out of my face, I needed a shower too, I just didn't have the motivation to do anything.

"You need to eat." She whispered.

I shook my head.

"You need to take care of yourself Bella." She told me.

"No, I need to take care of Matthew, and I cant do that because I don't know where he is." I explained to her.

"Bella, this has been hard on everyone, especially on you, but you need to keep your strength up so when they bring Matthew home you'll be able to take care of him." She said.

I closed my eyes, "What if they never bring him home?"

"Bella, don't think like that." She said.

"I cant help but think like that! It's been a day and they still haven't found anything." I whispered.

"They will, give it time." She said.

I sighed and walked over to the bed, she grabbed the tray of food and sat down in front of me with it. I started to eat slowly only to make her happy. When I finished it she smiled and patted my leg before taking the empty tray and leaving the room. I got off of the bed sliding my shoes on, I grabbed a jacket and headed downstairs. I managed to sneak out of the house without anyone seeing me, I slid my jacket out before heading into the woods for a walk.

I stuck my hands in the pockets of the jacket as I walked, I listened to the sound of crunching leaves under my feet. I had no destination in mind, I just needed to clear my head. I head a noise, sort of like a tree branch breaking, but I shook my head and ignored it. I kept walking telling myself that I was just being paranoid, I stopped once I heard the second snap of the branch. I looked around starting to think that this was a bad idea to come out here alone. But Edward was so worried about me that he wouldn't leave me alone, I just needed some alone time.

"Hello Bella." Jane said.

I whipped around to see Jane standing there in her black robe, red eyes, and her blonde hair wound up in a tight bun in the back of her head. She smiled at me as she slowly took a few step forward, I couldn't move. I was frozen in fear in the very spot that I stood, she came closer and walking in a circle around me.

"I heard your baby is missing." She said.

I didn't answer her, just followed her every move with my eyes. She walked over to a tree and traces the cracks in it with her finger before turning back to me smiling. I could feel the food that I just ate start to make its way back up my throat but I fought to keep it down.

"Is that right?" She asked.

I couldn't talk, I just looked at her unsure what to do. If I took of running she would sure catch up to me in no time, and then she would be angry. If I stayed here there could be a chance that she could hurt me, if I ran there could be a chance that she could hurt me, so either way I was most likely going to get hurt.

"Are you going to answer me? Or do I have to use my special trick to get you too?" She asked.

I shook my head.

"I heard your baby is missing." She repeated.

I nodded my head.

"Any idea who took him?" She asked.

"N- No." I stuttered.

"That's too bad." She said.

She took a few steps towards me which made me take a few steps back.

"Your not afraid of me are you Bella?" She asked.

I didn't answer, which made her angry, angry enough for her to throw me against a tree. I gasped in pain as my head smashed into the tree, she held me there looking into my eyes with her red ones.

"There's nothing to be afraid of Bella." She whispered.

I looked everywhere but at her, the ground, the other trees, or up at the sky. She grabbed my face roughly forcing me to look at her.

"Your still human." She said pointing out the obvious.

"Really?" I asked.

She threw me to the ground, I tried to crawl away but she slammed her foot on my back. I cried out in pain, she picked my back up and pinned me to another tree.

"Are you done being smart Bella?" She asked.

I closed my eyes tightly and nodded.

"Good." She said letting me go.

I took deep breaths bending over, my head throbbed, my back ached, and I wanted to throw up. I stood up straight the best I could to see her with her back to me. I looked around for the best escape route, I slowly took a few steps backward before taking off running. I had to give it all I could, I had to ignore the throbbing pain in my head, and the protests coming from my back. I didn't realize that I was running in the direction of the wolf territory, I crossed the border trying not to trip wondering why I hadn't been stopped yet. I screamed in pain and fell to the ground, I looked up to see Jane standing above me.

"Stupid human." She said shaking her head.

"Please... Please stop!" I cried out.

"Ha. After you just pulled that? Sorry honey, it doesn't work that way." She said.

I cried out screaming my loudest, she stopped and picked me up covering my mouth with her hand.

"Would you shut up?" She cursed looking around.

I kicked her and screamed biting her hand, she threw me against a tree. I hit my head off a sharp edge and everything went black.

I groaned as I felt a cold wash cloth on my head, I opened my eyes slowly. I squinted because everything was blurry, I tried to sit up.

"Whoa there Bella." Someone said pushing my back down.

"Emily?" I asked.

"Yeah, just relax Bella." She whispered.

"What happened?" I asked.

I finally was able to see clearly, the pack was here, Sam stood behind Emily who was kneeling down by me.

"We smelt a human, and I recognized your scent, and then a vampire came and we knew the Cullen's wouldn't be that stupid to cross the boarder." Sam explained.

I groaned.

"She got you pretty good, do you remember anything?" Emily asked.

"I went for a walk to clear my head and she came, she was in the woods and started to ask me questions. She attacked me, and long story short after a while of her throwing my against trees I ran. I didn't know I was running towards here, and... and I don't really remember anything else." I explained.

"Who is she Bella?" Sam asked.

"Jane, shes part of the Volturi. She's after me until I become a vampire." I said.

"Why does she want you to become a vampire?" He asked.

"Because if I don't, they'll kill me. They said they cant have a human knowing about their secret." I told him.

"The Volturi?" He asked.

"Yeah." I said.

"But you haven't told their secret to anyone yet." Emily said dabbing my head again.

"It doesn't matter, its her sick way of a game." I whispered.

Edward's POV

"What do you mean her future disappeared?" I screamed at Alice.

"I told you! I saw Jane and she attacked her a few times! Bella ran and then everything went black after a little bit of her running! I cant see anything after that point!" She explained again.

I was fuming, I kicked a trash can over before running outside.

"Edward!" Esme called after me.

I followed Bella's scent, I stopped where Jane had her for most of the time. I picked up her scent in the direction she ran, it didn't take me long to find out where she went. I stopped before I could cross the border, anything could have happened. Jane could have hurt Bella, or the wolves could have her, or both.

"BELLA!" I screamed.

Bella's POV

"He's here." Sam said.

"Who?" Emily asked.

"Edward. He's not in the territory but I just hear him screaming Bella's name." He said.

"Edward." I whispered feeling weak again.

"Can you walk?" Emily asked.

She helped me up, I almost fell the second I stood, she helped me back on the couch.

"She cant walk." Emily said.

"Edward." I cried/whispered.

"Leah!" Sam called.

"What?" She snapped coming down the stairs.

"Go tell him we have her." He told her.

"No!" She growled crossing her arms across her chest.

"Go!" He growled.

She glared at me before running out of the house.

Edward's POV

"She's at the house." Leah said walking up looking annoyed.

"Is she okay?" I asked.

"She looks pretty bad." She said walking away.

"WAIT!" I called.

"I'm not going to be a little messenger dog! I'll have Sam bring her to you." She said.

I waited, it took me all I had not to break the rules and cross the border. But Sam came not even three minutes after Leah left. He had Bella in his arms, she looked really weak, he walked up to me and smiled.

"What happened?" I asked him.

"She said when she was awake earlier that a girl from the Volturi, Jane I think it was attacked her. I was outside when I smelt a human and recognized Bella's scent, shortly after a vampire came and I knew it wasn't one of your family members. So I went to check it out, she got her pretty good." Sam explained.

I closed my eyes and ran my fingers through my hair unbelievably upset, I clenched my hands into fists before taking a few deep breaths.

"Billy told me Jake attacked her." He said looking at me.

"Yeah, Bella said she thinks he was on drugs." I told him.

"Yeah he may not have told her that was part of why we kicked him out of the pack, but we were experiencing some problems with him and drugs." Sam told me.

"He was doing drugs in the pack?" I asked.

"Yeah, it was getting pretty bad." He said.

"I don't think he told you this because Jake is denying it, but we're thinking that he took Matthew." I told him.

"Matthew is gone?" Emily gasped as she ran over.

"Yeah, Bella was tied to a chair and Matthew was no where to be found." I said.

"So Jake took him?" She asked.

"That what I'm thinking." I said.

"We'll keep an eye out Edward, Jake might not trust you but as long as you follow the rules I have no problem with you." Sam said.

"Thank you." I said.

"No problem." He said.

"Here, let me take her." I said.

He carefully shifted Bella into my arms, she winced and groaned before slipping back into unconsciousness.

"You might want to have your dad look at her when you get home. Jane threw her against the tree pretty hard." He said.

"Thank you, really." I said.

He nodded, I turned around and walked back towards the house. It took me longer then usual because I didn't want to hurt her anymore but I got there.

"Dad!" I called.

"Upstairs!" He yelled.

I took her upstairs to have Carlisle look at her, I explained everything that happened while he looked over her. He told me that she should be fine, she just needs to rest. So I took her to my room and laid her on the bed. I looked down at her and wondered how this could have happened to us, and why it all was happening now.

Review.
