Not beta'd

Chapter 21

"Where is she?"

I figured after my 'date' with Zach I wasn't tired so I went and sat on the couch flipping through the channels. I couldn't find anything and I was bored and I was about to make my way upstairs to my room when Edward burst through the basement door flipping his cellphone shut. He ignored me and made his way to the kitchen looking for my mother. I shrugged and went up stairs to change into my pajamas. I stepped out of my skinny jeans and tripped over my own two feet falling on my face.

"Where's your mother?" Edward burst through my door.

Could he stop popping up in places around me? I was wearing my panties and a t-shirt and I quickly slipped on some sweats and crossed my arms, glaring at him. I thought I saw him swallow nervously as I walked towards him.

"She's at the cabin in Port Angeles for the week." I shrugged flopping down onto my back on the bed.

"What? Why?" He stared at me as I stretched on my bed and reached over to set my alarm.

"Do you not remember the fight you had?" I asked and shivered realizing my window was open.

"What?" Edward looked at me with a generally confused expression.

"That's just what she told me." I closed my window and walked over to Edward and put my hands on his chest and pushed him out the door before closing it. "Night!"

I lay down in bed and fell right to sleep.

My alarm went off at six and I did not want to get up and go to school. I had no choice really, so I rolled out of bed and headed to the bathroom and had a nice hot shower and sang some random song stuck in my head before climbing out and brushing my teeth and hair. I made my way to my room and slipped on a blue pair of panties and a matching bra and a white tank-top wen my phone started ringing. I jumped onto my bed and grabbed it off my nightstand.

"Hello?" I smiled. It was weird for me to be this happy in the morning.

"Hey, Bella." I could hear excitement in Zach's voice. "Look out your window."

"Your not going to be standing on my front lawn holding a boom box or something right?" He laughed in response.

"What do you see?"

"A man jogging." Not just any man, but Edward had just left the house and was jogging down the street. He looked.. Good.

"What else?" He urged.

"An old woman walking her dog?" I was confused.

"No! Your truck is gone!"

"Where did it go?" I exclaimed worried, I didn't like talking to the police.

"My dad got his buddy to tow it down to his garage so he ca fix it. Free of charge." I let out a sight of relief when I realized it wasn't stolen, but stopped short when I heard the last part.

"Zach.. I can't let you do that. Just tell me how much and I will pay him." I argued.

"No. Let me do this for you. You need someone to help you out whether you realize it or not." I was quiet for a long time after hearing his serious tone.

"Thanks Zach." I whispered.

We talked for a bit more and then I hung up when I realized it was way after seven. I liked having him as my friend. I walked over to my dresser and pulled out a pair of faded blue jean short shorts when I heard a creak in the hallway. I raised an eyebrow and looked out into the hall seeing no one, but my mothers door was slightly open and she usually has it closed.

"Edward?" I called out.

Was he back from his jog already?

I opened the door to the bedroom and gasped slightly. Everything was strewn across the floor and the bed. Boxes in my mothers closet were sitting out on the floor looking rummaged in and Edwards briefcase lay among the items on the floor, open. I knelt down and picked up some papers on top but then I saw the files underneath. The ones with big red letters and I opened one and I didn't really understand all the legal talk but the next one made me freeze for moment. It still said 'Confidential' in the red letters but right under it in small red letters read 'Renee Swan'. What?

Opening the file there were picture of her, information about things I didn't even know and I was just scanning it quickly. I dropped the file when I saw the next file. 'Bella Swan'.

That's not my last name.

I grabbed it quickly and gasped at what I saw inside. Pictures of me at school, shopping at the store and these weren't from awhile ago they were fairly recent. There was a picture of me at work talking to Zach. It listed all my hobbies, interests and everything about me. What the fuck? I felt like my breath was trapped in my lungs and I couldn't focus. This was Edward's briefcase. Why was this in here? Was he a stalker? I dropped the file and stood up quickly and was about to turn around when I heard the sinister click of metal on metal.

"Don't move, or I will shoot you." A voice said.

Slowly I looked over my shoulder to see a man not much taller than me in a black mask pointing a gun at me. He was a little heavy and he had sharp amber eyes that watched my every movement. School honestly sounded like a better option right now. I would rather listen to Lauren and Jessica blab on about some guys dick then this, and coming from me that's saying something.

"Put your hands up," I did as he told me, because he did have a gun. "Now tell me where the flash drive is."

"I don't know what your talking about." I said and turned to face him.

Then I remembered, Edward had a gun. Maybe if I could distract this guy I could pull out his drawer and grab the gun quickly. What would I even do with a gun? I didn't know how to work one. And would I honestly be able to shoot this guy?

"Don't fucking lie to me!" He yelled and walked up to me grabbing a handful of my hair. I cried out when he put the gun under my jaw. "Where's the drive?"

"I don't fucking know what you are talking about!" I cried out. The hard and cold metal of the gun felt like it was cutting open my skin.

I closed my eyes as he shoved it into my skin harder and then I heard a thud and he let go of my hair and I lost balance and fell onto the floor. The man lay beside me on the floor and Edward stood over us holding his gun in one hand and his hand out to me. I grabbed it and hugged him, never feeling as safe in my life. He grabbed my arm and dragged me out of his room and into my room grabbing my empty black duffel bag laying on the floor and grabbing clothes from my dresser throwing them in.

"What are you doing?" I asked frantically. My brain was in over drive and I could barely process all that had happened and it was only 8 in the morning. Some how I felt like this was going to be a very big day.

"We're leaving. Now." He said in a urgent voice.

"No."

"Do you want to stay here? Because once mister hit-man wakes up he is going to call his hit-man friends and they are going to come here and blow your fucking brains out." He growled.

"What the fuck is going on Edward?" My eyes watered and I grabbed my toiletries and whatever else was needed.

He didn't answer, but he grabbed my arm and dragged me down the stairs and threw me towards into the living room when a man with short dark hair and dark eyes came out of the kitchen holding a gun. He was tall and muscular and could probably kill Edward in a fight.

"Give me the girl Edward and no one gets hurt." The man said in a low voice. I really hoped I wasn't the girl, but I had a very bad feeling I was.

"Get out of here Paul. I'm going to take her somewhere safe." Edward matched his tone.

"I can't trust you. You've been off the map for over a month now, are you rogue?"

Edward snapped and tackled the guy and they fought viciously until Edward hit him hard over the head with his gun. Still determined he grabbed me and took me outside throwing my bag into the backseat next to another bag which was probably his. I got into the passenger seat putting on my seat belt as Edward pealed away from my house, and I wondered if that was the last time I would ever see that house I grew up in.

"Seriously Edward. You need to tell me what's going on right now! The files in your briefcase, the 'hit-man' and the guns?" I felt like I was going to hyperventilate.

"I'm not who you think I am."

"That's an understatement. Who are you?" He looked over at me and smiled a crooked smile before answering.

"Agent Cullen."
