Chapter Twenty-Six
Bella had woke up a few hours later finding herself still at the Cullen house. She hoped the last night was just a terrible dream. She sat up not knowing Rosalie was in the room. "It was real," she stated.
"I was afraid someone was gonna say that," Bella said looking over at her.
"Everything is gonna be okay Bella," Rosalie said standing up. "Its hard for awhile but eventually you get adjusted back to life," she said.
"Sounds like you have experience with this," Bella said causing he to nod and sit on the bed.
"When Edward found me that night," Rosalie began. "I was just raped by my husband to be and all of his drunk friends," she said looking down. "They brought me out of my darkness,' she said. "And we will help you too," she said taking her hand.
"But I wasn't even raped," Bella said looking down at her hands. "Shouldn't I have been over this by now," she said lookig over Roslaie.
"No," Rosalie said. "Just because they didn't accomplish that sick task doesn't mean that you should feel any less pain then I did," she said. "The fear was still there and look at all they did to you," she said.
"What about the wolves?" Bella asked changing the subject. "Won't this cause problems?" she asked.
"Yes," Rosalie said. "But Edward cares for you a lot," she said. "So I guess your worth it," she said jokingly causing them to laugh. "They went out to talk with the wolves," she said.
"What?" Bella asked with panic in her eyes.
"Don't worry Edward can handle it," Rosalie said. "Edward said I should feed you," she said causing her to smirk at her.
"I am not his pet you know," Bella said causing them both to laugh.
Edward went with the rest of his family minus Rosalie to meet with the wovles. The met at the center of the boundary. "How is Bella?" Sam Uley the leader replied.
"She's not doing to good," Carisle said. "What your friends did to her," he said with anger in his heart. \
"They are no longer friends of ours," Sam said. "And there will not be a war," he said. "Tell Bella I am very sorry I should have control them better," he said.
"Yeah you should have," Edward said growling at him.
"Billy sends his apologies as well as the other familes," Sam said. "I hope this doesn't change things between us and the treaty," he said.
"No," Carisle said. "We are still good when it comes to that," he said shaking his hand.
"Come on lets go," Sam said to the pack. All of them had sympathetic looks and Jasper could sensed they felt very guitly.
"Lets go back home," Esme said causing them all to nod. A few hours later Edward and the rest of them came back to the house hearing laughter.
"What is going on?" Esme asked coming into the kitchen. It was a complete mess.
"You are suppose to put the lid on the blender before you start it Rose," Bella said wipping the shake off of her face and Rosalie looked at her hair.
"Hey," Rose said sternly. "I have never cooked," she said.
"Excuses," Bella said throwing a piece of fruit at her and Rose through it back. Everyone was in shock that they were getting along so well. But they did have something to bond over.
"Okay," Edward said. "The human needs a bath," he said helping her up from the floor.
"Mmm," Bella said holding onto her stomach. "Carry me," she said causing him to smile.
"Of course," Edward said lifting her up in his arms and ran to the bathroom upstairs. Alice had set some towels and clothes already in the bathroom.
"Wow," Bella said. "She knows everything," she said softly.
"I'll get the water warm for you," Edward said causing her to nod. She went to undress and then stepped into the shower. "Here let me help," he said.
Bella began to feel alittle panic as he went towards her chest with the rag. "Please stop," she said out loud. "Edward……I" She said seeing the hurt look in his eyes.
"I am sorry," Edward said. "Here," he said handing her the rag. "I will leave," he said.
"No," Bella said. "Just," she said. "Can you get in here with me?" She asked causing him to nod his head and took off his clothes. Edward stepped in the shower and wrapped his arms around her.
"Do you still want me to help?" Edward asked causing her to nod.
"Just let me help," Bella said placing her hand on top of his as he held the rag. After the shower he took her back to the guest bedroom to get some sleep. "Stay," she said.
"Always my love," Edward said causing her to smile.
"Love," Bella said. "It's a nice feeling," she said resting her head on his bare chest. Edward smiled down at her and hummed her to sleep.
