A/N: Okay, we'll see if my internet works when I get back to boarding school in a few hours..
Chapter Thirty-Eight
"Huh?"
"Come live with me. I'm sure my parents would be alright with it. They practically know you already from everything I've told them about you. Don't worry, I didn't tell them about your dad, but we can if you want. They're really nice and they'll love you"
I stayed silent as he kept on talking, pointing out all the good points about living with him.
"And you wouldn't have to go back to your dad every day"
He finally stopped talking, looking at me expectantly.
I thought about it. Living with him would be good. I could finish high school; keep my job to earn more money. Not suffer abuse every day.
"But, what if your parents don't like me?" I fretted.
"They'll love you; you can come and meet them after school if you want, I'll just send mum a text letting her know you're coming over" he offered.
"Think about this Edward, do you really want me to live with you?"
"Yes" he answered straight away.
"Please Bella, I don't want to see you becoming homeless, I want to know you are safe in bed every night, not being out on the streets somewhere or in a dodgy little motel"
I knew he wanted the best for me. He's the most kind person I've ever met.
"Okay"
