Edward POV

The ring was just like Bella said, on her dresser in her room. As I had entered her room only a couple of minutes ago it had been the first thing to catch my attention. It was now crushed tightly within my palm. The thoughts of Bella wearing it only hours ago stabbing at my heart. As I fell to the floor, my body no longer able to withstand the heartache my first tears began to fall. Why would my Bella leave me and why was she such a coward not even to say goodbye? Why couldn't she talk to me face to face, we could have talked through any problems and she wouldn't have had to leave. I could hear shouting and despair downstairs as Charlie had arrived home but I didn't care. My Bella had left me.

The diamond of the ring was cutting into my skin as it crushed into my hand. I really didn't care, maybe I was hoping that the pain in my hand would kill the pain in my heart, the agony of my heart being ripped into a million different pieces.

"Edward?" my head shot up to the soft voice that had just spoken. It was Alice the look of shock and sadness obvious in her face. We didn't say another word but she crossed the room and took a seat besides me. We put our arms around each other and cried into each others shoulders.

As I finally opened my eyes again I slowly began to take in Bella's room for the first time since I had entered it. It was a mess, obviously where Bella had packed her bags quickly. There were clothes on the floor, discarded she wouldn't be needed them wherever she was going. There was a sheet of paper screwed up on the floor. I left Alice sat sobbing on the floor while I got to my feet and walked over to it. My hands were shaking with nerves as I opened it. It could have just been rubbish but deep down I really hoped it would be a clue as to where Bella had gone. My eyes scanned the page in disbelief. No wonder Bella had gone, she was protecting everyone.

Dearest Bella,

Just a note of warning for your mind. I hope you have noticed all that is happening around you, seen what has happened to your brother and blondie. Your family must feel destroyed, but who can they blame? You Bella Swan. If you didn't exist, if your life wasn't so perfect none of this would have happened. Emmett wouldn't have lost his pride and Blondie wouldn't currently be lying in a hospital bed.

Who could be next Bella? You could be the one to make this all stop.

Would you want to see that pixie friend of yours go insane before your eyes? Having to see her own father decide to put her in an asylum, knowing that it was all your own fault.

What about Chief Swan? Could you sit back and watch as the next robbery he is called out would be his last?

Bella I hope you have clearly understood what you have to do, as there is really only one answer. You won't try to do anything stupid and call the cops as I will know. You wouldn't want that pretty boy of yours to get hurt now, would you?

Your Guardian Angel.

Jessica POV

It was that time of week again. Today was always the day I would go and visit my grandmother. She was slowly dieing of cancer and there was nothing the doctors could do. It was so hard to sit and see somebody who you know is dying while trying to keep a straight face and pretend that everything is all right for their sake. Walking down a corridor I passed the nurses station where I could catch parts of their conversation.

"I told Emmett I would phone him if there was any change at all with Rose while he nipped home." One nurse said to another.

"It is such a shame for them both, such a young couple having to go through something like this at this stage in life." The second nurse replied.

"I really hate having to see Rose's face every time I enter her room. It tares me up inside to see how much pain Rose is in knowing she can never have her own children just because of one scumbag."

I didn't need to hear anymore and before I realised what I was doing myself I was heading to the exit of the hospital. There could only be one Emmett and Rose, that would be Emmett Swan and his girlfriend Rose and what I had just overheard was all my fault. I had only asked James, Victoria and Laurent to scare Bella so she would dump Edward who could then be mine. I never imagined that they would be attacking people to cause lifetime damage. As I climbed into my car I felt sick. To think about what the whole family must be going through, to what Rose must be going through. If I was ever told I was unable to have children I would not know what to do and would my life be worth living. Before I had chance to think about anything else I threw to car door open again and retched out into a hedge, my stomach feeling like it had been twisted into a million knots. As I wiped my mouth clean and took my seat back behind the wheel I knew there was only one place I really had to go now. I had to confess.

Bella POV

The pain was excruciating. I was curled up tightly in a ball in the centre of the bed, my eyes closed, Edward the main picture in my mind but I had to learn to swallow the pain and get on with life, for I still had a lot of time left. I knew the pain would never leave but I hoped one day I would be able to confide my pain to one place of my body, a place I could shut away and forget about. My heart, for there would never be anybody else in my life who I could learn to love as much as I loved Edward. He would forever be the person who owned the key to my heart whether he knew it or not.

The hotel phone was ringing but I didn't answer it. It would only be the hotel reception telling me about something. It could even be that I didn't have enough money to stay for the amount of time I planned to spend here. I had already dipped deep into my college fund to get a flight to Phoenix and then even further to stay in the hotel near the airport. I wanted to stay close to the airport so that as soon as I knew where my next destination was going to be I could leave and catch the next available flight. I didn't know what I was going to do next but when I did I would have to find a job. Now that I was all alone I would need money. I would no longer have Emmett and Charlie there to help me out and pay for the roof above my head. If I was to keep living I was going to have to keep myself.

I pulled the covers on the bed tightly around myself and closed my eyes tightly. I tried as hard as possible to push my fears to the back of my mind. I pictured Edward and myself together in our meadow. My lying there in Edward's arms, while the grass and flowers blew gently around us in the autumn breeze. Edward was stroking my hair with one hand while I traced the lines of his other hand with my fingers. His skin was so smooth to touch and I could feel his smile as he kissed my head.

A loud banging interrupted my thoughts my eyes shot open. I had fallen asleep with Edward in my dreams and now there was a banging coming from the door. My fear reached me again. These people had found me, not only had they tortured me by making me leave my family and Edward, but now they had found me and probably wanted to kill me. I wrapped the blanket tighter around me as my body began to shake. I couldn't open the door, I wouldn't but no doubt these people would be able to get through the door soon enough. Sure enough the banging soon got louder as the people on the other side began to force themselves at the door. The tears began to roll down my face as I realised this was the end. I would never see anybody ever again and I would die in this hotel room with only my murderer here for company. There was one last crash as the door sprang open and all I could do now was wait and face my death.
