Ok chapter four is finally here woooo! Sorry for taking so long but I've been very busy!
I don't own Twilight
Edward watched as Esme raced off in the woods carrying Bella. He then turned his attention to the police men who were swarming into his living room. One of the police men stepped forward and flashed his badge.
"Edward Cullen?"
"Yeah that's me", Edward asked feigning confusion.
"We are looking for a Miss Bella Swann. She went missing yesterday night and we understand that you were with her then". Edward widened his eyes in fake shock. "We're going to have to take you into the station for questioning". Two officers stepped forward and escorted Edward off to one of the cars and drove off to the station.
Another officer stepped forward. "Doctor Cullen, we have a warrant to search your house". Without another word the remaining officers began scouring the house for clues.
……………………………………………………………………………………………..
Edward was led into a room with all white walls. In the center there was a small table with a few folding chairs around it. On one wall a window that only the people on the other side could see through spanned the entire wall. Edward took a seat on one of the chairs.
"Chief Swann should be here soon to question you" one of the officers told him as the door slammed shut. Edward cursed inwardly, Charlie would be enraged at Edward, and getting questioned by Charlie wouldn't be easy.
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
"Well Doctor Cullen", the officers had returned to the living room, "We didn't find any traces that Bella had been here". Though Carlisle could not read minds, he could tell that the police men were feeling a mixture of suspicion and confusion. Carlisle didn't blame them. There wasn't a single bed or even a refrigerator in their house
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
The door flew open as Charlie stormed into the questioning room. Edward gulped and began to read Charlie's mind.
"What the hell did you do with my daughter?"
"Chief Swann", Edward did his best to keep his temper in check, "I know what this looks like but I swear I had nothing to do with your daughter disappearing".
"Liar! Bull Shit!" Charlie was yelling, his face red with rage, "Where the hell is she! What happened to my daughter?"
"Look, during prom I started to feel sick", Edward said his mind quickly forming an alibi, "Bella insisted that I should go home and that she would stay a while longer then call you for a ride home." Charlie took this in and thought of more questions hoping to catch Edward in a lie. He was about to continue his probing when an officer opened the door and beckoned Charlie outside.
………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Sir we searched the Cullen's house"
"Did you find anything we can use to pin against Edward?" Charlie asked anxiously.
"Nothing", the officer answered, "But here's the weird thing, did you know that the Cullen's don't have a refrigerator or beds in their house?" Edward, who was eaves dropping cringed at the officer's statement. Any normal family would have those two things, but because vampire's can't sleep and don't eat food, there was no need for such common household items.
"You did well Andrew", Charlie said, "That is odd but it doesn't help us". Charlie returned to the room.
………………………………………………………………………………………………
Charlie spent another hour questioning Edward. But any question Charlie asked no matter how detailed, Edward answered without hesitation.
"Alright Edward I guess you can go home now" Charlie said obviously upset. Andrew came into the room to drive Edward home".
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
It was after sunset when Edward arrived home. Right away he went to talk to Carlisle.
"It went okay, but Charlie is still suspicious of me" Edward said as he began to relate what happened. Carlisle scowled, it was obvious he was still angry from what Edward did but Carlisle kept his temper in check. Edward was about to leave when Carlisle stopped him.
"Where are you going?" Carlisle asked like Edward had just lost his mind.
"I'm going to see Bella"
"Not tonight you aren't" Edward scowled but Carlisle ignored it, "If the police come back tonight and you are gone it will look bad you can see her tomorrow". Edward wanted more than anything to see Bella but he knew Carlisle was right. Edward stormed off to his room and threw himself on the couch. He found himself thinking of Bella.
Was she okay?
How was the transformation going?
Did she hate him for giving in?
Ok that's chapter 4, I promise to have chapter five done soon!
