Chapter 13

Bella's Point of View

When we got back to Charlie's home, the porch light was on and the cruiser was already there.

"Charlie is wondering where you two have been." Edward said.

"What else is he thinking?" I asked.

"Going fishing but he's still debating." Edward replied.

"Ok." I said as I got out of the car alongside Jade.

I shut the door and Edward was already at my side. Jade rolled her eyes at him. As we walked up the drive way, Jade stopped in front of us.

"Jade what's wrong?" I asked. She turned around and looked toward the woods.

"I smell something or someone." She replied.

"Victoria." Edward said. I looked up shocked.

"Who?" Jade asked.

"Bella, go inside." Edward said.

"What? No, I can't go in alone." I said looking at Jade.

"Ok fine. Just stay right here. Jade come with me." Edward said.

"Edward where are you going?" I asked.

"Just stay back and don't be so stubborn." He said.

I rolled my eyes and the two of them ran towards the trees. I couldn't see them anymore and I began to worry. Just then, Jade ran back towards me.

"Come on Bella. Inside." She said.

"Where's Edward?" I asked.

"He said he will be back later. Come on go inside." She said pushing me towards the door.

I saw Edward come back to his car and start it up. He sped off so fast I could barely see him. When Jade and I got inside the house, Charlie was sitting at the table reading the paper.

"Hey girls." He said.

"Hey dad." I said.

"Hi Charlie." Jade said.

"Where were you two all day?" he asked.

"Oh you know just hanging out." Jade said.

Charlie nodded his head.

"Ok. You were with Edward all day?" he asked.

"Yea. And Jacob and Alice." I said.

"Jacob? I thought Edward and Jacob didn't like each other." He said.

"They got over it. Sort of." Jade said.

"Sort of?" Charlie asked.

"Yea. Bella told me why they didn't like each other." Jade said.

"Why don't they like each other?" Charlie asked.

"Just stupid reasons." I said.

"Yea. They were both being idiots and made a small truce." Jade said.

By now, Edward was probably in my room listening to us. I think she wanted him to.

"Oh. Well, I am off to bed. Goodnight girls." He said as he stretched and headed upstairs.

"Oh dad, Edward and his family are going camping tomorrow so I'm going to hang out with Jake. It's cool if Jade comes along right?" I asked.

"Sure. Just be careful. Jake and his friends are pretty rough." Charlie said. I turned to Jade.

"I think Jade can take 'em." I said.

"Alright. Have fun. Night girls." He said.

"Night." We both said.

"Your room?" Jade asked.

"You know it." I said.

"Is Edward in your room?" Jade asked.

"Probably." I said.

"Think he heard me?" Jade asked.

"Did you want him too?" I asked.

"Yup." She said.

"Then yes he heard you if he's here." I said.

When we got upstairs, Edward wasn't alone in my room. Emmett and Jasper were with him.
