Part 2 - Zahn and Friends From Past
After about 4 hours of flight, she was finally in LA, and finally free. She went over to fetch her bags, then after doing so, she walked out to the meeting place and there he was, her uncle Zahn, she heard him say;
"Bells!" She ran forward into his opened arms, cried of relief when he wrapped them around her, while people stared at them for no reasons really. He then let her go and took a few of her bags and the two walked out to his car, and then they were off to his place of living in LA, while driving he asked her some more of what had happened in Forks, but she told him when they were home she would tell him for she didnt want them in an accident or something like that, and with that he knew something bad had happened for her to say so. So they talked about his job and what was on his agenda when it came to work and stuff.
After about 30 minutes of driving the two pulled up to his house, and it was a very beautiful, bigger home, but so much his style of home too. She loved it too. The two then pulled out her bags from the trunk and went inside of the house and he led her to her own room and left her to unpack her stuff on her own, as he went to his living room to wait for her to come out and they could talk about the issues behind her coming to him, despite that he had no mind or issues, he just wanted to know the whole story behind it all. She was all for it too, she wanted so badly to tell him the full scope of it all too to him, so after unpacking her stuff and taking a quick shower to shower of the grime of being flight and stuff, she was now in her PJ, a t-shirt and shorts, she came out to him and sat down on the couch next to him. He looked over with a smile on his lips of what she wore, and then said;
"OK, Bells, spill what is going on?" Bella just burst into tears then she told him the whole story, and when she was finished, he was in disbelief and pissed off at Renee and Charlie's behaviour, as he then said;
"Why didn't you call me sooner, baby?" Bella sighed and said;
"For my ex-boyfriend didn't allow me to even call you when I told him who you were, as he thought I was cheating on him when he saw your name on my phone-list, yeah, he went through it and my email for any clues, stupid asshole, and after a huge fight that led to tears and slaps, he then broke it all off, and I really thought he was going to believe me and leave it alone and we could carry on with our strange relationship, but that was not his own plans. He hurt me alot."
"What the hell is wrong with this boy, who does he think he is to do something like that, and what do you mean he hurt you, how?" Bella sighed, as she then moved her shirt down and showed him a scar above her right breast, and he fumed of the sight, as he said while touching it gently;
"What did he do, Babygirl?" She still was crying, while telling him about the abuse he had put on her, and his rejections of when it came to sex, and how he would hit her when asked about it and tell her it is a sin if you have sex before marriage, and that she acted like a wanton whore when she tried to get him to sleep with her. He was just shocked, and held her in his arms, while she told him of everything.
"And your father, the man I used to call as my brother, what did he say about it all?" Bella told him about their huge fight after she had called him and he was furious of his "brother" and declared that man delirious and not a brother of his anymore if he could act and do that to his own daugther. Bella just held onto him, as she cried still and he held her until she fell asleep in his arms, and he then carried her into her room and laid her down onto her bed, and left the room, just as the door bell went off, and he went to answer it after seeing if Bella was awaken by it, but she hadnt been, so he closed the door for now and went to open it up, and saw the Spears brothers there on his stoop and let them in the house after greeting them with a hug.
Soon after the two took noticed of his wet spot on his shirt and the bags in the living-room area, and Eddie asked;
"So who is here and why do you have a wet spot on your shirt?" He looked down onto his shirt, as he said;
"Oh that is Bella, she is in her room sleeping off jet-lag. And it is her tears on my shirt." At that the both sat up straighter, as the two knew of her being his "Niece/Daugther", Michael asked
"Why was she crying for, Zahn? I mean she should be happy to be here with you."
"Oh she is, but the reasons behind why she came to live with me, was the reason behind her tears, and I dont blame her either, as it made me so pissed off that I want to punch Charlie daylights out of him and make Renée cry too. Fucking idiots the both of them."
"Why what happened, Zahn?" At that a new voice joined them;
"For how both have treated me through the years and been like when I was broken last few weeks." Zahn turned to her, while the two boys with him gapped and stared at her;
"Are you ok, did we wake you, sweetheart?" Bella just shook her head, said
"No a horrible dream did and I went out to get some water, when I heard voices and felt the need to announce myself." He nodded, as he reach out his hand to her, and she took it while he led her to a seat, then said;
"Well, Bella, meet my fellow actor friends and crew-mates, Michael and Eddie Spears." Bella blushed slightly, then said
"Hi, I am so happy to finally meet Uncle Zahn's friends, as I knew of you through our phonecalls and emails over the years." The both just smiled and took her outstreched hand in theirs to shake it, then let it go and she stood up and went out to the kitchen to fetch water for herself and came back to sit with them, and Zahn asked
"Are you ok, not tired still?" She said
"No, the little nap helped out abit for my lag and tears earlier, now i just have a small headache of crying but the water will help me out for now." He nodded his head at that, as the two boys who had come over for a visit, Michael asked
"Did you ever live in Pierre, in South Dakota or nearby it?" Bella looked up at him with small shock on her face, said
"Yea, my "mother" moved us there after she first took to her mother's place, horrible woman her too, her mother died of cancer when I was 9, and the two of left for Pierre, as my mother could never stay in one place for too long as it made her antzy and flighty to try next place. Why do you ask?"
"Werent you the girl who stumbled onto a set and my producer got pissed off at the girl for destroying the scene?" At that Bella flushed red, and stammered;
"OMG i remember that, it was horrible to be yelled at like that, I didnt even know it was a set nor anything else, you saved me that day when I almost fell over the cliff that I stumbled onto that day."
"I am glad to have helped you and I told the director off that day too, that you didnt even meant to be there in first place, or stumble like you did that day."
Bella just smiled nodded her thanks, as Zahn just smiled at the two, and so did Eddie, then he said
"Wait is your name Bella Swan?" At that she looked confused but nodded her head, said
"Yes, why?" He just grinned, and said
"We were like 5 years apart in school, but you hung out with me and my friends in school during about 1 year before you left again."
"Oh I remember now, wow, what a small world we seem to live in, if i just knew you were the same from Zahn's stories, I would have come sooner to meet you both." Making them all chuckle at that, as Michael said
"So what happened then? I mean Zahn told us some of it, but your version is what?" Bella sighed then told them everything that she had told Zahn, then she excused herself to get dinner ready for all of them to eat in a hour or so. Michael and Eddie was pissed off when she had told everything except the part of what her father had tried to do and done/said to her earlier today. Michael asked Zahn;
"What about her father, what did he say or do to her?" At that he sighed, and told the two what her father had both said and done to her through it all, as Eddie hissed out;
"Are you fucking serious, Zahn, he actually told her to get over it and herself and start dating a much younger boy his liking and that the said boy is also his godson?" At that Zahn nodded his head, as the two boys were pissed off at that, as Bella came back out to them in the living room and said
"Did I miss anything?"
"No, B, I hope it was ok to tell them about how your father was like to you." Bella just shook her head and said
"No I dont mind it, as I dont want to re-tell it all over again. Just too much pain for now." He nodded as she sat down again next to him, and looked over to the boys and gave them a shy, small smile. They returned it to her with soft looks instead of looking pissed off. Eddie asked then after few;
"And your mother, what did she say or do when she learned about the break up? She grimaced, said in soft tone holding onto Zahn's shirt in his back, and he just let her do so, as he knew what Renée was like, and wanted to know too.
"Well first she was shocked of us breaking up, but then she flew off in the phone and called me things that I dont want to say again, as it was very hurtful things to say even now.. Then she hung up with "Dont call me back ever if you are going to be a such cry-baby about it, just move on and find someone else, for fuck sake" She didnt even care, never has if it has not to do with herself, being selfish and stuff." Zahn just held her hand, as the two boys were in shock of Renée's hurtful dismiss of her own daugther's pain.
"Well I knew somewhat she was a selfish bitch, B, but this is not what I thought she would say or do to you, B. This is last drop for her too." Bella just sighed as she then said
"Then you wont be too happy to hear what she put me through while growing up with her was like, and even made me to be placed in another family for 2 years of what had happened to be placed there over her home."
Making the three look confused and worried even, as they knew it must been bad enough for her being removed from her mother's place and not placed with her dad instead of a new home for the 2 years. He said
"What happened, and why didnt the social services place you in your father's care?"
"For he told them that he was too busy with his career becoming the police chief of the town he still live and loves to live in to this day?!"
"He what? How dare he?" Bella just shrugged, as she said
"I think he was unhappy that he got me and not a son, and let me know what had happened to me was my own fault if I was such a whore."
Zahn yelled out "WHAT HE CALLED YOU WHAT?! AND WHY?!" Eddie and Michael shared a look of shocked disbelief, as Bella had tears in her eyes, as she said
"One of the guys that my so-called mother was dating at the time I was around 13, was giant asshole and horrible man ever. I had to fight with both of them alot, but the night it all broke loose, was the night I broke his balls to never be able to have children of his own and also broke his jaw and arm, aswell gave him black eyes."
"What did he do for you do self-defence that I taught you?" Bella looke at Zahn, as she said wobbly
"He tried to rape me, while Mother sat back to watch it happen"
"He tried to do WHAT?! And your mother watched it happen to you?" Bella nodded, as she said
"She was fucking high as a kit that night too, but she nor he saw it coming when I punched him breaking his jaw while screaming his head off, I then busted his neither regions and I also gave him two black-eyes then as I called the cops on him, my mother tried to get me back on the bed so he could do it to me, and I fought with her aswell, defending myself, she too got a broken arm and a black eye. The cops came and cuffed them after hearing the screams on the phone from me and that I fought hard too. They gave me credits of the injuries that I had given them and the only injury I had was bruised up breasts, as he had violently fondled me with his roughness of hands."
"My god gracious, and when they called your dad of it, he went off on them and you right?" Bella nodded her head, as Zahn just held her into his lap now, and the two boys were in shock and disbelief of this being revealed to them too. Michael was pissed for what she had been through and had already found himself liking her more and more the moments went on and promised himself to help her out and see where it led to be with the two. Eddie promised to be a brother to her if she wanted that of course. Zahn was seriously thinking of adopting her as his own daugther and get her away from being in her so-called parents lives anymore she already been for now it was enough for him at least. He looked at Eddie, said
"Does your mother still work as social worker?" Eddie said
"Yes, why?" He said
"For I will ask her of adoption papers, to be able to adopt Bella as my own daugther and get her out of her fucking parents not so much parents lives for good." Bella looked up at him in shock, as she said
"Y-you want to do that, Zahn, you want me?" At that they all looked sad at her words, as he said firmly
"Yes, babygirl, you have become more and more over the years like a daugther to me, Bells and what you have revealed shows how horrible parents your mom and dad are to you and should been arrested for their own parts of not raising you in right ways and I have enough, they deserves to be thrown in jail for their own parts of what you been through and be loved by me, will you let me do it?"
At that she shocked them all by throwing her arms around Zahn as she also said loudly
"Oh, daddy, please I want it so badly please, dont let them take me away anymore." At that he just held her and the two boys nodded to themselves that they would get in contact with their mother about it all.
