B POV
I was finally being able to get out of the hospital, I was of course beyond happy about this. Although, taking pain medication wasn't that great and having a cast on my broken leg was going to burden. I'm sure I'll live.
I smiled, thinking that Jake and his allies were unable to hurt me anymore. They were going to be in a strict prison out of the state of Washington. Charlie, being the chief of police, made sure that would happen for my well being.
My ribs were getting better, I couldn't do strenuous activities of course since they were healing. My wrist was all better from the resting and icing it went through. Those two weeks in the hospital were what you call hell. Along from being boring, I had absolutely no privacy, I was being checked on constantly.
I was going to be able to go back to school in a week or so, Edward promised he wouldn't leave me out of his sight for nothing. He's been perfect, so far and been the best boyfriend ever. He was over practically 24/7, Charlie was always watching our every move claiming he was trying to be a responsible parent. Some may say that Edward's behavior seems kind of obsessive, yeah I think that's the word. I find it pretty cute and protective.
School was going to be over soon, to be exact in a month from now. Because of being in the hospital, and everything that happened throughout the school year with Jacob, I am failing every single subject. Alice and Rose come over to help me with school work sometimes, it's really thoughtful of them. They brighten my day, we talk like we're 7th grade again and we're talking about boys and they keep me up to date with everything going at school.
7th grade was when Jake happened, nobody truly does know the truth about him. Even now, I still feel sympathy for him even though he is the reason why I am how I am at the moment. He was my best friend, he was the person I called when I was down.
Billy and Jake use to be so close but, then Billy moved out and neglected him. He would send him great birthday presents to make up for the lost time, that didn't really matter to Jacob he wanted the love from his father. His mother was a nice person to everybody else in this planet expect Jacob. She would call him useless, and that hurt Jake more than anybody knew. Jacob turned into the psychotic monster because of good for nothing parents. He deserved better, Jake was a good guy before the monster overtook him.
Even though Jacob did this to me, I could never hate him, he didn't deserve the kind of treatment his parents gave him. Our relationship was based on pure lust for each other, nothing more. When Edward came to the picture I realized what love was.
I saw the definition of love like the one that is read in the bible:
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails
Whenever I though about that passage my mind wandered to Edward. Which reminds me that Edward should be stopping by soon.
As if reading my mind, the doorbell rang. I got up and grabbed my crutches and made my way to open the door for him. When I opened the door I was met with Adonis himself, he had that damn crooked smile plastered onto his face. He leaned down and gave kissed me chastely, he pulled away far too soon and smirked at me and helped me to the couch.
We sat and watched a couple movies together sneaking kisses every now and then. We had just finished watching A walk to remember, when Edward looked at me his smoldering eyes making me feel like putty in his hands.
He grabbed one of my hands and kissed each knuckle before looking at me again.
"Would you like to go to prom with me Bella?" He asked me. I smiled up at him, it was sweet but, my leg wasn't exactly in the state for dancing.
"Edward, I would love to go, but there is one problem my leg is broken." I told him. He kept on smiling at me, and I was started to think something was wrong with him.
"Bella, don't be silly I won't let go of you." He said.
"Edward," I started.
"Bella, come on it'll be fun. We only get to go to prom twice in our lifetime." He interrupted me, trying to convince me.
"We have next year too." I told him.
"Please do it for me?" He told me while lashing the power of his gorgeous eyes.
"Fine," I said giving in. He smiled at me crookedly and kissed me again. I felt someone clear their throat. I blushed knowing who that was. I could see Edward's cheeks were a light pink also.
"Um, I'm sorry sir..." Edward told Charlie, while scratching his neck nervously. Charlie grunted and walked off towards the kitchen mumbling about me being a little girl still. I rolled my eyes at Charlie and his nonsense.
"So, you ready for senior year?" He asked me. I groaned, I hate junior year.
"I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to graduate with my class now." I told him.
"Yeah you are Bella, I know you are." He told me. There was no use in arguing with him about this one.
"Alice and Rose have been helping you a lot with your classwork. I'm sure you'll be caught up by the end of this month." He kept on going.
"Okay," I said, I really didn't want to say anything about that matter. He sighed and cupped my cheek and kissed my forehead.
"Don't stress about it love, everything will work out." He said trying assure me. I gave him a weak smile and fiddled with him bronze hair.
We stayed on the couch like that for what felt like hours, Charlie surely wasn't a happy camper about that.
"So what's your favorite kind of candy?" Edward asked.
"I love M&M's." I said, while smiling at him.
"Okay." He grinned at me, I wonder what that was about.
Edward left that night around 9 after we ate dinner. Charlie was helping me get to my room, which happens to be on the second floor.
Throw it in the bag started playing once I got to my room, signaling it was no other than the crazy shopaholic Alice.
i keep hittin tha baton, Louie vuttion
gucci down to her feet, Yup just like me.
Im the one, with them ones.
Fuck the price on the tag
just throw it in the bag.
"Hello?" I said.
"Bellllla!" Alice practically sang through the other line.
"Al, what's up?" I said.
"Oh you know, Bella don't play dumb with me." I honestly didn't know what she was talking about.
"Alice, what are you talking about?" I said.
"You going to prom with Edward." She squealed. I covered that ear knowing the squealing wasn't going to end anytime soon.
"Yeah, and?" I said asking her to continue.
"Don't think that because you have a broken leg you're not going to miss out shopping with Rose and I for prom dresses." She told me sternly.
"Alice, my leg is broken I can't have to much pressure on it for a long time." Didn't she already know this.
"You're not getting out of this one." She said. I groaned, this was going to be hell.
"Wait, how do you know I'm going to prom with Edward anyways." I asked her. If Edward told her anything he was going to be in trouble.
"Edward was talking about asking you to go with him today, and I knew you were going to say yes already." She told me like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Damn that short shopaholic pixie.
AN: I hate school. lol. That is my reason why I haven't updated in practically two months! I hope this made everyone happy, I tried to add fluff to this:) I also gave somewhat of a reason Jake acted like he did. I mean it's seriously horrible, period but that needed to be said. This chapter will be wrapping up pretty soon in the next two chapters I believe and I will be writing an epilouge, no sequel. I have no time to update as is, it would be really hard to come up with an idea for a sequel and this story was more about abuse more than anything and half based on realationship I have gone through... so my life is kind of uncoiling and I haven't dated since that realationship so yeah. I'm nobody cared about that part.
Anyways, I have movie recommendation for you all! Go watch Paranormal Activity!!! It was the most F'n scariest movie I have ever seen! I am like still kind of freaked by it, but it is seriously scary I have never been scared by a movie in my life and this one got me practically going insane I was like "OH MY GOD" over and over again and yanking my hair out. It is a must see!
Review please, sorry for the long AN. I love every single one of my reviewers and readers!
