BELLA P.O.V
'Hello?' I called out into the empty house. 'Mr and Mrs Black? Anyone there?'
Silence.
I sighed and fell back onto the chair I was next to. I wonder where everyone is, I thought. I was at another Foster home; these people seem friendly enough but there son is a bit creepy. I have been here for 2 weeks now and I was leaving in a couple of days to go back to the orphanage. I can't say that it has been a bad stay here, I would be kind of lying. The Blacks are very kind and give me too much, if you ask me. But even so I couldn't wait to leave, there son Jacob was my age but really muscly and tall. When I first met him I was petrified after everything I had been through he looked like the type of guy to hit and kill someone. He started out being really nice to me, he asked me how I was and talked to me about everything but then after the first week things became…weird. When ever I looked at him I would find him watching me, always watching. He would always appear up behind me out of know where, and touch me all over my body that I felt uncomfortable and cold.
I didn't say anything though, I was too scared. When ever I was about to I would see a dangerous emotion flicker across his eyes telling me to keep my mouth shut.
I felt chills begin to run down my back when I thought about it. I made sure I was never alone with him, or in the same room for a long time. I felt uneasy just sitting here on the couch in an eerie silence all alone. I heard the wood floors creak behind me near the doorway. I jumped up and spun around and yelped. Jacob stood there staring at me in the doorway, he looked scary and powerful as he studied me, taking in the way I shivered and began backing slowly away.
'Jacob,' I said, my voice wavering a bit. 'W-What are you doing here?'
He came closer to me taking giant steps. 'I wanted to talk too you Bella.'
I kept backing up as he came towards me. I felt my heart beating miles a minute, this is defiantly not good.
'About what?' I asked trying to distract him.
'About you, you are very beautiful Bella. One of the prettiest girls I've seen by far.'
Normally I would have blushed by now at the compliment but the way he said it made him sound almost possessive.
'T-Thank you,' I mumbled and began to turn. I was by now at the door and all I needed to do was open it and I would be free. Jacob obviously knew this and grabbed me by the shoulders and slammed me into the wall behind me.
'Bella, where do you think you are going we have some important matters to discuss,' he almost growled and banged me against the wall again. I felt my head hit it and began to get a bit dizzy.
'Jacob your hurting me,' I whimpered.
'Well Bella maybe you should learn to listen.'
With that he threw me across the room and I hit the couch and fell to the ground. I began to try and pick myself up but he was already in front of me lifting me up and pushing me onto the couch.
'Now Bella I want to show you just how beautiful I really think you are,' he whispered as he slid on top of me.
'No,' I cried and began to hit him, trying in a faint attempt to get him off me. 'No, please don't.'
I felt tears pool up into my eyes as he grabbed my arms and pinned them above my head. He began to give me hard kisses up my neck finally reaching my mouth. He forced my mouth open and jammed his tongue in and letting it explore. I felt his other hand begin to tug at my shirt trying to get it off. I squirmed but it didn't do much because he was straddling me. His mouth finally pulled away from mine and he lick down my neck. I gasped for air and tears fell down my face 'No please Jacob, stop, please.'
'I don't think so Bella, You, Are, Mine!'
I screamed and jumped upright. My eyes flew open and I felt tears begin to fall down my cheeks. I was hyperventilating and gasped for air like a drowning person.
'Bella,' someone yelled. I heard some footsteps rush over to me and when I looked over I saw Edwards face only centimetres away.
'Bella what happened,' he said. He sounded so worried and scared I cried even harder.
'I-I and then, and h-he is coming for me, h-he is coming,' I sobbed out.
Edward stood up and I felt myself being lifted and placed back down. I was instantly warmed as a pair of arms encircled me and pulled me into a hard chest. I felt a hand stroke my hair soothingly and someone, Edward I presumed whispered reassurances to me. I felt my sobs after a while begin to subside and felt darkness once again creep over me. The last thing I remember was a soft humming and what felt like a kiss on my forehead.
'Is she still asleep?' I heard someone whisper.
'Yeah she's been out for ages, she has to be waking up soon,' another person said.
'She was seriously freaking out she screamed so loudly it scared the crap out of me,' a soft voice said. 'God, I wonder what happened.'
'The email she read before she fainted sounded like someone was stalking her,' a girl muttered sadly. 'But, but that can't be right, right? We have to be wrong.'
'I sure as hell hope so.'
I groaned having had enough of listening to the voices. I heard them instantly stop as I began to move around waking up all my muscles. I slowly opened my eyes and saw everyone staring at me.
'W-What?' I managed to croak out. My throat, I realised, was incredibly dry. I saw Alice stand up and come and sit next to me, handing me a glass of water. I gratefully took it and gulped it down quickly. When I felt my throat finally sooth I spoke again to break the silence. 'How long was I out?'
'5 hours Bella, it is now night time,' Joe answered and came over to crouch down in front of me. 'Bella, what was all that about?'
I looked away 'What.'
'The fact that you went crazy after receiving a phone call that freaked you out or the fact you fainted after reading a rather threatening email.'
'You read the email,' I yelled. 'Why would you do that.'
'Because I'm worried about you Bella, you've been jumpy and scared and I want to know why. That email Bella, isn't just a friendly scaring, that person is serious.'
'Don't you think I know that,' I cried. 'He is a frigging creep, after what he did to me before I know this isn't a friendly scaring. He is coming for me why do you think I left the orphanage in the first place.'
'Wait, wait, wait, hold on a second. You said you left to start a life,' Edward said. 'So you were lying.'
'No! Maybe, Yes, well kinda.' I stumbled for the right words.
'And who is this he?' Emmett demanded.
'And what did he do before,' Rosalie asked.
Everyone began to talk at once asking me questions, talking to themselves and I felt my head begin to spin. I closed my eyes and instantly regretted it. I saw Jacobs face sneering at me, and the nights he attacked me for his own pleasure. I put my head in my hands trying to block everything out but it wouldn't work. I needed to get out, to think and calm down.
'Shut up,' I yelled and jumped onto my feet. 'Just please, be quiet. I need to go out.'
When I saw everyone about to open there mouth I held up my hand 'Don't, I just need to be alone.'
With that I walked out. How am I going to tell them, tell them how much of a screw up I really am. God they will probably leave me like everyone else.
