A/N: hey guys! ummm i haven't been getting as many reviews, as I would like to have, so PLEASE! review. it would make me incredibly happy!
ummmmm I'll be starting chapter playlists, and I just click my writing playlist, and shuffle. So if you see the same song, on any other chapters, I'm sorry. And they probably won't have anything to do with the story, if they do, it's a cool coincidence. oh and all of the songs, are HIGHLY RECOMENDED! so check them out, cuz all my writing songs, are pretty much my faves.
chapter playlist:
friends- band of skulls bulletproof- la roux collect call- metric use somebody- kings of leon dream on- the chemical brothers how you love me now- hey Monday take it off- ke$ha love the way you lie (featuring rihanna)- Eminem kiss with a fist- florence + the machine
It took I-don't-even-know-how-many stitches to sew up the long cuts on my legs. They even went a little above my waist.
Carlisle said that I'll most likely have to live with these scars the rest of my life. I immediately thought of Emily.
Charlie was called over to come pick me up.
The story was, was that I was hurt by a bear. Emmett found this hilarious, being that, that was how he became a vampire. When Charlie came into the house, and the story was told again, Emmett kept laughing hysterically, Rose had to drag him out of the room.
The good side was that I got to stay home until the stitches were out. It was only because they ran down my leg, and it hurt like the pits of Hell when I tried to walk.
Charlie had to work the next day so I was excited to have the house to myself for the next couple days.
Except I woke up to Alice sitting on the edge of my bed.
"Alice…" I groaned. It was too early for me to interact with people right now, and to top it off the tyenol wore off. Pain ripped through my leg.
"Hey Bella!" Alice said being her usual chirpy self.
I put a pillow over my head.
"Why are you here?" I grumbled.
"You didn't think we were going to leave you all alone with no one to talk to for the next couple days did you?" She said, as if it was obvious.
She dragged me downstairs eventually.
I was resting on the couch. My feet in her lap.
I was finally completely awake. Now I could talk.
Apparantly Edward would have been here too, but he needed to hunt. Alice said he was only a phone call away.
The day mostly consisted of Alice and I watching movies all day long. They were all my personal favorites. Everytime I put one on from the last ten years, she complained.
"Bella! The movies made nowadays SUCK!" She said agitated. I just chuckled and clicked play.
We were watching 10 Things I Hate About You. I was staring at Heath Ledger's face, and next thing I know, I was fast asleep. I dreamed about yesterdays events. The incident playing, and replaying in my head over and over again.
The thing that bothered me the most, wasn't the blood oozing out of my flesh, it was the fact that Jacob left me hurt. And he hasn't even called to check on me, let alone say sorry. I woke up with tears in my eyes.
Alice was looking at me sadly. "What's wrong Bella?" She asked.
I sat up, "Nothing. I need to make a phone call." I grabbed my crutches that were resting on the side of the couch, and went to the kitchen. I sat at the table, and whipped out my phone.
The phone rang one time. Two times. Three Times. Four Times. Five times. Six times.
"Hey this is Jacob, I'll call you back when I get the chance." Beep.
My brows furrowed. I felt Alice sit next to me, sadness filled her eyes again.
I dialed the number again. It went directly to his voicemail, I decided to leave a message.
"Thanks for checking on me Jake. I'm fine, no need to worry about me. I've just been laying around the house because I can't walk because I have long gashes on my leg, that are stitched up." I sighed, I felt my lip quiver. "Call me if you care." I hung up the phone, and dialed another number, praying he would answer.
I heard the panicked velvet voice speak into the phone. "Bella? Is something wrong? Why are you calling me? Is Alice still there?"
I was shaking as the sobs were taking over me. "Edward?" I asked in a small voice.
"Yes, what's going on?"
"Jacob. He left me yesterday. And he hasn't bothered to check on me." My body started to rock back and forth. Tears started streaming down my face.
He let out a breath. "Okay love, I was just about to leave before you called, so I should be there in five minutes."
"Okay hurry." I pressed 'end'.
I set my phone down on the table. Alice's cold arms wrapped around me.
"It's okay Bella. You know he loves you." She whispered.
"Then why did he leave me?" I blubbered.
"He-" She hesitated. "He's probably upset with himself."
I continued to sob heavily into Alice's shoulder for the next couple minutes.
I heard tires squeal to a halt, and then the front door open and close. More cold hands pried me off of Alice. I buried my face into his chest, and stained his shirt with my tears. He picked me up bridal style, and then he sat down. I felt the cushioned couch under my body.
I opened my eyes, and Edward wiped away the tears with the back of his hand. This only made me sadder.
"Oh Edward!" I exclaimed. I climbed onto his lap, and cried more into his stone body.
He rubbed soothing circles on my back. Eventually I heard Alice say she had to leave, she hugged me and left.
A couple minutes later, my body relaxed, and stopped shaking. Tears stopped welling in my eyes. I stayed in Edward's comforting arms, to upset to move.
"Better now?" He asked, I nodded, my head still resting on his chest. "Now tell me what happened, this is when me not being able to read your mind is a disadvantage."
I moved off his body, and sat next to him. I smiled weakly. "When has it ever been an advantage?"
"It is, believe it or not Bella." I sniffled. "I don't have to see what it was like for you when I left. I don't have to see how you feel about Jacob."
"I'm sorry." I said as I rested my head on his shoulder.
He moved away a little. "For what?"
"For making you feel so bad. For hurting you."
He moved back to his earlier postion. "I should be the one apologizing."
I shook my head. "You didn't do anything."
"Bella if I never left, I would be with you. If I wasn't paying attention to Jacob's thoughts, I would've protected you from getting those cuts. If-"
"Edward." I cut him off. "First, you left. Okay, it's over and done with. Let's not talk about it again." He nodded. "Second. It was Jacob's fault not your's." His face said he disagreed, but he nodded again.
"So are you going to tell me what's wrong?" He asked.
I took a big breath. "Jacob hurt me. And he ran off. Didn't change into human form, to see if I was okay. Didn't even call me to check on me. Let alone visit. I called him twice. First time it kept ringing. Second time it went straight to voicemail. He was ignoring my calls." I heard a small growl rise in Edward's chest. I closed my eyes trying to stop the tears. "Why Edward? Why?" I pleaded.
His lips went into a tight line, and then he spoke. "I don't know Bella. I wish I did. But I don't know. And I'll find out in just a second." He stood up quickly off the couch.
"Edward! Don't!" I yelled. I stood up too and grabbed his hand. "Please don't."
"Bella…" He complained. I pressed my lips to his quickly. I surprised myself by doing this. I pulled my lips off his, and god was it hard. I pulled him back to the couch.
He smiled. "Fine I'll stay." We both sat down on the couch, and then Charlie came into the house, a box of pizza in his hands.
"Hey kids. Bella how you feeling?" He ran into the kitchen and grabbed some paper plates.
He appeared back into the room. "Fine." I said as Edward greeted Charlie.
"I was on my way to Billy's when I remembered that you don't have dinner." He kissed my forehead.
"Thanks dad, but I could've made something for us." I noticed Edward's nose wrinkling.
"No, you are supposed to stay off your leg." He said goodbye.
"Oh and if-" I hesitated. "If you… see… J-Ja-Jacob… tell him to call me." He nodded and left.
My mouthwatered as I opened the box. My stomach yelling for food, I was to busy to even think about eating today.
I placed it on the plate and took a huge bite.
"That's disgusting Bella." Edward chuckled.
"What?" I asked.
"Your human food." He smiled.
I smiled too. "Remember, that one time at school when you told that human food tastes like dirt would to a human. And then you took a bite of my pizza."
Edward's smile grew. "Yes, I do. I've tasted better things." He raised his eyebrow, as I laughed. "And smelt better things." He tapped my nose.
I shook my head. "Ha, funny."
