I ran at full speed without using my time jump. It was one of those times that would make the situation worse. Whenever I thought about it, my foot would step into the ground and I would leave an imprint. You could probably see the anger fuming from me and I was glad Jasper wasn't in the room. It probably would have killed him.

Stopping just outside the forest, I put my hand on a tree to lean steady myself. The state I was in wouldn't help me when I saw Charlie. I took a deep breath and thought about what Edward said. Chewing on my lip to let the anger flow through my movements, I tried to see why he did it.

I would have completely annihilated the plane if Edward had told me then and I knew I was too weak before to handle it. Then the whole thing with the human blood and me being weak after that.I stopped and the wires connected in my brain.

Edward didn't trust me with Charlie. After I told him I had killed people, he instantly didn't trust me with humans. I sucked in my breath. He didn't know I was 'allergic' to human blood. But when he found out, I was too weak and would have torn myself apart. Even now, I am still weak too even use my gift full on.

I smiled. He had done it in my best interest. Although he should have trusted me from the beginning, I could understand why he didn't. This time I laughed to myself.

Could I never be mad at my husband for more than five minutes?

I shook my head in reply to my own question. Looking at the house ahead of me, I still couldn't decide what to do. So I just climbed the tree, went up to my window and open it.

It looked exacting the same from when I left. Nothing was touched or even moved. The screen on the computer was still on, still showing the note that I had left Charlie on that night. I gulped down the tears that were forming in my eyes. Edward was right, I couldn't handle this. Not now.

Heading back to the window that I had silently closed, I looked out to see Sam staring straight at me. He was in his wolf form but he transformed in front of my eyes. He was mad that I was here but I didn't really care. Rain started to fall and his figure was blurred. I could have focused but my mind was elsewhere. The window showed my reflection.

My pale skin almost matched with the grey outside and all my features were smooth. Since I still had my hood up on my cape, it cast a shadow over my face but my eyes burned their usual bight lavender. I felt like an alien. My hand went up and touched the glass, touching the reflection.

That's when I noticed someone had come into the room. I couldn't see who it was in the window because it was fogged up by the rain. The scent was also unfamiliar. So I didn't dare turn around.

"So, are you a new addition to Jacob's watch?" If I had normal skin, it would look like I did right now. It was Charlie, he was the unfamiliar scent.

"You know, they really think they could stop me from killing myself but they couldn't." I heard the smirk he let out. "The jumping off the cliff was an experience though. It was almost like I was flying but then Jacob had to save me. Then again, when I was going to just do the crude way but he had to stop me there too. All I wanted to do was to join my daughter."

I moved my head to the side a little bit but I didn't make it so he could see me. From the angle I was looking, I could see Charlie. I almost wrenched. He looked terrible. His hair was grown out and he had a scruffy beard. The clothes he was wearing looked like he had been wearing them for weeks. But by far, the worst was that his eyes looked hollow. There was nothing left of him and it showed.

"My daughter got taken from me you know. It was my entire fault because I didn't move my ass when I was with her. I could have saved her but I didn't. The man she was going to marry left her though and then they said that she would never make it back. I tried not to believe them, but a week went by and I knew they were right. She was the only one who really loved me enough to stay and then I failed in protecting her!"

Charlie slammed his fist on the bed. I couldn't help the tears that trickled down my face. I had done this to Charlie and I didn't know if I could undo it. I took a deep breath and swallowed hard. Putting my hands up, I pulled the hood down off my head. I closed my eyes and turned around, opening them to look at Charlie. He was staring at the floor and crying.

"Please don't cry dad, please." I couldn't take it anymore.

Charlie looked up and just looked at me for the longest time.

"Dad, please." He wasn't saying a word but his eyes were somewhat glazed over.

"Bella?" his face still showed no emotion.

"Yes dad, it's me. I'm back."

"I wish that were true. I really do wish."

My mind blanked out. He didn't believe me.

"Dad, it me, Bells! Please, look at me!" Charlie had moved his head away from me and stared at the wall. Tears were running down his face again.

"Stop it. Just stop, I have had enough of your tricks in the past. Just let me be alone for once." I went over to Charlie and squatted down. He flinched when I put my hand on his knee.

"Dad, I'm here. I'm right here in front of you. Please, look at me." His eyes connected with mine but they were glazed over. I had lost him to his depression. Standing up, he turned away from me and leaned against the wall.

"Stop torturing me. I have nothing left. No one is left for this old man."

I wanted to slap him, yank him out of his mindset. My hand went up to his face and I laid it on the side of his face. A shiver ran down his body at my cool touch but I didn't take my hand away.

"It is me. You're Bella. I'm here, with you. Please, understand that. I came back for you."

"Must you haunt me? Must you bring up my guilt?" My hand fell away from his face. I needed more time to help him understand.

A howl in the distance told me I needed to tell someone that I needed more time. I was afraid to leave Charlie but I didn't want to fight Sam in front of him. I took Charlie's hand and led him down the stairs.

"Stay here, I will be right back. Don't move." Charlie's eyes widened and his face seemed to turn paler than he already was.

I was out the door in seconds flat and I used my gift to get to Sam fast. Just as lightening stuck, I was a foot away from Sam. His eyes went wide with shock.

"You will let me have a night with my dad and you will let us have it alone! I will not fight you if I don't have to but I will easily fight for my dad. Although I should thank you, I am not in the mood to do so tonight. So just back off!" I growled and he took a couple steps back.

I didn't even wait for his reply when I ran back to the house. Upon opening the door, I saw Charlie standing in the living room. A gun pointed to his head and his eyes closed.

"No!" I screamed and lunged at Charlie.

The shot rang throughout the house but the thunder and lightening drowned it out.
