Sitting down himself he gave me a smile and turned towards the piano, stretching his fingers he sighed lightly.
"I made you another song" he said in a light voice looking at me from the corner of his eyes. I gave him a genuine smile while I laid my head on his shoulder getting comfortable. Nodding my head I watched as his fingers skilfully sweep across the keys, humming softly I started to quietly sing unknown lyrics. After finishing the song we both heard Esme clap her hands. Turning my head I saw Esme watching both of us with a soft smile on her face.
"That was beautiful Edward and Abby your voice is amazing" I blushed just remembering that they had super hearing. Alice bounced into room followed by everyone else and I thought that now is the time that I should tell them about my past.
Emmett walked over to me giving me a playful slap on the shoulder.
"Abby you kicked ass" Emmett laughed out, I smiled at him about my victory as my tail started to swish faster, due to my excitement.
"Emmett. Don't encourage her about these things" Esme scolded as I giggled at him, for getting in trouble.
"Hmm guys…" I said getting everyone's attention but I noticed that Carlisle wasn't here.
"Is Carlisle still at the hospital?" I asked anyone.
"Yes why?" Esme answered.
"Well… I um want to tell you about my past"
"Well, I've finished cooking so, go and eat" I nodded my head as Edward led me to the kitchen by my hand; I smiled at him sitting down and started to eat.
"You had me worried when you didn't come back" he whispered into my ear making me shiver lightly. I looked at him, giving him a cheeky smile making him laugh.
"Are you sure you want to tell everyone your past?" he acted with concern laced in his face. I nodded my head as I finished my food.
"Yep, you all disserve to know and I know that you have been dying to know about it for a while" He just smiled and lovingly kissed the top of my head. About an hour later Carlisle walked through the door.
"Hmm, ok everyone. I'll tell you now" I mumbled knowing full well that they heard me. They all walking into the living room and sat down. Edward pulled me onto his lap wrapping his arms around my waist and I wrapped my tail around his.
"Well… ok so you all know that my parents hate me" I started and waited as everyone nodded their heads; sighing I looking down at my hands feeling my eyes water.
"When I tell you this I really… I just" I stuttered not being able to find my words.
"It's ok calm down love" Edward cooed in my ear running his fingers through my hair.
"Well… it's because when I was 14 my parents went out for a business dinner to seal a deal with some client, they were big business people back then. So they left me in charge of babysitting my two year old sister Marie. She was such a sweet girl, she hardly ever cried or had a tantrum and she was so cute" I smiled as I saw the image of her flash in front of my eyes. Shaking my head I lowered my head not wanting to look any their faces when I told them.
"Everything was going really well, by the time that my parents had gone out she was already in bed asleep so all I really had to do was just watch TV and pig out. But what I didn't know was that the baby monitor had broken" they looked a little confused.
"You know that they have little red bulbs and when where is a noise the bulbs light up according to the amount of noise" I explained gaining nods.
"well every time I looked at the monitor everything looked fine, my parents had rung me saying that they were going to stay in a hotel for the night and to go next door in the morning so they could help me looked after Marie, I stood by her door and heard nothing so I went to sleep" I took a deep breath as my voice started to shake, felt Edward tighten his grip on me.
"Well… when I walked into her room the next morning to check on her… there was blood all around her" I stopped talking for a minute, tears streaming down my face. I leaned back into Edward; he turned me around so my head was on his chest.
"I called the doctor and he said that it looked like she… had been crying all night and that she died from choking on her blood" I was full on crying and sobbing now.
"I… I hate myself for letting her die; I should have gone and checked on her or checked the monitor before. I should of done something but I didn't" I felt Edward rub my back to help calm me down, I took a deep breath and carried on.
"After that my parents started to beat me and I didn't do anything, I just let them do it with out a fuss. I believe everything they said. I believe that I dissevered everything I got from them. I tried to be everything they wanted in a daughter, I tried to be girly and popular, I was good, I cleaned the house, I did everything I could think of but every time I tried to impress them I got beat. I then understood that I would never be forgiven or even good enough of them. So I started to cut myself" I said looking down at my hands.
I cleared my throat and was handed a glass of water from Esme who looked like she wanted to cry. I thanked her as she sat back down next to Carlisle, I let my eyes wonder to my lap and I started to tell them the rest.
"I used to be popular, most loved girl. Every girl wanted to be me and every guy wanted to do me" I said with a bitter laugh.
"But that changed not that I'm bothered about that part, about a year ago, I was driving my car to school from my boyfriends house. His name was Jason, he was the quarterback and the most popular boy in school you know that blue eyes blond hair type, we did love each other so much, he was so sweet and kind" I sighed.
"But on the way to school I was driving and Jason though it would be funny to give me a love bite while I was diving. He… he" I sighed angry with myself and I felt Edward shift uncomfortably from under me, I turned to face him. His face was pained so I curled into him more and kissed his shoulder.
"You mean so much more to me" I whispered into Edwards's ear as he smiled and kissed me.
"I didn't notice an upcoming truck had swerved into our lane until the last minute and it… it hit him dead on… killing him instantly" I whispered fiddling with my hands.
"And of course everyone at school blamed me for the accident, all the 'friends' I had left me, well all accepted Emma. After it happened I started getting death threats and other things, hell. I still get the odd one or two" I said breaking down. Edward pulled me more into him placing kisses in my hair and on the side of my face.
"I started cutting again, I turned hollow. I had none there to help me. It got so bad that I was sent to the hospital for going to deep, when I went home the beating got worse. I was scared to go to school and go home; I had nowhere to go so I started walking through the forest to calm me down" I explained.
"And now I'm here" I said finishing my pity story of my past. I looked at everyone's faces to see worry, pain, anger, sympathy and some pity. I really didn't care for their pity. I looked down at my lap again waiting for the shouting, the insults and to be pushed to the floor, but none of that happened so I looked up to see that everyone had left the room. I looked back at Edward. He cupped my face into his hand laying a gentle kiss on my lips. I smiled weakly.
"So you don't hate me?" my voice cracking on the word hate.
"I could never hate you and if you get another death threat then I will hunt them down" he spat venomously.
"But everyone else…" I was cut off be Edwards lips.
"They still love you" he whispered into my ear as I let a sigh of relief out.
Again we were at school, I hated it. But I needed to find Emma I needed answers. I was walking to my locker with Edward by my side when I spotted Emma there.
I felt Edward tighten his grip on my waist. Emma rolled her eyes at seeing us.
"Hey Abby, Can I talk to you alone" she said glaring at me with a smirk stretched across her face.
"Ok" I turned to face Edward; I gave him a hug as he kissed the top of my head.
"Ok I'll see you in class" I nodded my head letting him go. I turned back to Emma and walked down the hallway with her not knowing that Edward and Alice were following us.
