Chapter Thirteen: Incident: Bella's Point of View
Well, its morning. I thought to myself. My eyes were still closed but I could hear birds singing. This is a brand new day. I opened my eyes and stared at the ceiling. Cold air suddenly washed over my whole body and I groaned and reached out trying to find my blanket. I came up empty. Sighing I opened my eyes and the sight shocked me so much I screamed.
The ENITIRE guard was standing next to my bed looking at me. Well not the entire, I probably got a bit carried away with that, Jane and Heidi are missing due to food shopping for them. "AH! What the hell are you doing?" I screamed at them. They all laughed and one of them (a male) did a really evil horrible laugh that reminded me of how he laughed in his room so many months ago.
~In Her Attack Type Thing~
Between the times I blinked and opened my eyes I was back at his house in his room. I looked around and started sobbing. I was in a terrible state, back how I was at the time.
"Bella why are you crying? You wanted this," his voice rang out loud and clear. I saw him stalking from in the shadows over to me. He had a look of pure evil on his face.
"Stay away," I cry trying desperately to move away, "Go away," I was sobbing so much. He by this time made it to the bed and was crawling on it. I screamed and started thrashing around. An invisible force was trying to pin me down.
"Shh dolce ragazza, don't worry, come back, it's not real," A sweet voice tried to coax me out of my state. I started sobbing heavily. I kept mumbling one name over and over again 'Alec'
"I'm here Bella, it's okay I'm here," his voice whispered softly to me.
"Who's Alec Bella? One of your past boyfriends?" He was getting dangerously close now. I shook my head; hoping this would all go away. On which it did.
~ End Attack~
Alec had cradled in his arms as I sobbed. He kept muttering things into my ear, nice things, until finally I stopped sobbing. I had those annoying hiccups that always come after crying. Everyone had left the room so it was only Alec and I left alone. I looked up to him and he looked down at me. He moved his hand from on my arm and brought it up to wipe my tears away.
"Dolce ragazza what happened?" Alec asked concern laced his voice. I shrugged not really knowing what to say.
We kept in that position for I don't know how long. A soft tap was heard and Alec sat up straighter and said "Come in," Aro, Marcus and Caius filed in. My eyes widened and I sat up.
"Hello Bella, Alec," Marcus greeted instead of Aro. They all looked at Alec and me. I probably looked horrible with puffy red eyes, and last night's make up running down my face, tears streaks, hair a mess and in my pyjamas. I nodded not trusting my voice.
"Hello Masters," Alec said, gently putting me off him and standing up. They waved at him and Caius said well ordered,
"Alec sit down with Bella this instant," Alec sat back down and pulled me into the position we were in before they came in. They smiled, but had pity in their eyes. I am getting sick of being looked at with pity. No way should they pity me. I growled, not as terrifying as a vampires but it sounded scary to me. Everyone looked at me shocked.
"Stop. Looking. At. Me. With. Pity." I growled at them. They looked a bit taken back, but then realisation lit their eyes. They smiled but this time without the pity. I relaxed a bit.
"Okay Bella, we are sorry," Aro apologized. I nodded and snuggled back into Alec's chest.
"We heard about your little… incident this morning," Aro chose his words carefully. He sounded as though he was accusing me of something. I looked down saying nothing.
"It doesn't matter much Bella, but if you wish to become a vampire most human memories fade, you might trust male vampires again, like you trust young Alec here," Aro motioned to Alec who was quiet.
"You don't have to try and convince me anymore Aro, I have already chosen to join your guard," I confessed. I knew that I haven't really thought about it, but truth be told, this is probably what I would choose anyways. Everyone looked pleased with my decision. Aro clapped once.
"That is such a good thing to hear Bella, but are you sure? You must be sure young one, otherwise it's pointless us turning you and you not being happy here," I think Aro actually cared about me. I nodded.
"I am sure Aro, I don't think I had much choice in the matter after meeting everyone," I confessed again. Aro looked so happy, joy was radiating from him all over the room. I laughed.
"That is brilliant news Bella, when would you like to be changed?" he asked, now this I don't really know. I shrugged.
"After we have the meeting with the Cullen's," I felt Alec vibrate at the mention of them. I patted his leg lightly.
"Well Bella, you will be pleased to know that we have contacted the Cullen's," Aro growled their names. Everyone here must dislike them now, which I felt kind of guilty for… Kind of being the key words in that sentence. I gave him my whole attention.
"They will be coming here within a few days for the trial. Would you like to go with Alec somewhere? Or would you like to stay here?"
