APOV

FINALLY!

Bella was finally free from Edward. Him and his selfish ways. I giggled at my own joke and stroked the brush over Bella's smooth brown hair. Rosalie was bathing her own skin in sun block before walking over to Bella and dancing the bottle in front of her eyes.

"Ok Bella, lift up your arms so I can pass it over your skin, it will help with not getting sunburned."

I laughed as Rose tried to be gentle, lathering up Bella's exposed flesh. And the bathing suit that we dressed her in was so darn cute!

I wiggled from excitement before tying up Bella's hair and dancing around to call Jasper, who came but stopped before entering the room. We all looked to Bella and smiled in reassurance. She wouldn't even look at us, her head was still down and she still kept murmuring the same things over again.

Something with sounded like. Hyah hyt agweh-

And let me tell you, hearing it over and over again was starting to make me repeat it in my head as well. Since Edward had walked out the door, she had not acknowledged any of us. I almost felt like calling Edward, but knowing that was against the rules.

With a final touch up, I grabbed the keys from my dear lover. Who was so cute with his small pout. I kissed his cheek and watched as he walked back into Emmett's room. I knew as soon as we left they would go to the waves and catch some much needed surfing.

I guess it was a lot different from all our other living arrangements. But it was something we all enjoyed; we weren't as into going to the beach as everyone was. We never really bothered to go out into the sun; Esme was serious about the sun hurting our pale skins. Today was different though.

And then I noticed Rose lifting Bella's hand and tugging her out of the room. Bella followed without a word, her head still down as she shifted her eyes back and forth. Then she mumbled –

"Edward."

I opened my mouth and looked at Rose as she looked back at me with the same bewildered expression.

"Bella! You have a beautiful voice; you should use it more often."

She ducked her head and whimpered as we walked out of the door and opened the car door, which was parked right beside the steps. Her hand suddenly gripped my arm as she pressed closer to me and mumbled Edwards name again.

I smiled and patted her shoulder.

"It's ok Bella, were just going to the beach."

Normally, no one would take a car to the beach, mostly since everything was so close, we didn't think Bella would be up for a little walk out of the house, mostly without Edward. Plus, I had a feeling that I knew exactly what happened to Bella. When I mentioned to Edward that maybe a man had hurt Bella in their own way, He freaked at me and told me to get real.

Deep down, I knew he considered my words carefully. Then how come she had grown so close to a man, Edward. Still she feared others such as Emmett, Jasper, and Carlisle.

It was a mystery I couldn't even solve.

Today we would have fun though, and maybe get another part of our friend that was lost long ago.

The beach was full with girls and boys, swimming and playing frisbee, or throwing a volleyball around. Bella ducked her head and would creep behind me when someone got too close or when a boy decided to be brave and say hello. Bella would turn away and grip my hand as if it was her life.

We stayed by the towels, Bella sitting beside me under the beach umbrella the whole time. When Rose or I tried to coxs her out to go swimming of when we got invited to play ball. She would look at me with huge eyes and shake her head.

If I walked away, expecting her to follow, she would whimper and bit down on her bottom lip as she got on her knees and watched me like a hawk, but she wouldn't leave the towel, Even when we didn't go back to comfort her.

Some people would turn to look at her, worried when she whimpered or lifting an eyebrow when she let the tears roll down her cheeks.

I let Rose sit by her when I wanted to go take a dive, turning around every so time to check on Bella. She was sitting, playing thumbs war with Rose, who laughed when Bella took her other hand and put Rose's thumb down so she could win.

Then, Bella tensed and crawled closer to Rose, half sitting on her lap and I quickly got up to check what was wrong. Rose was as clueless as I was. I sat on the towel Bella had been sitting on and she looked at me with wide eyes before ducking and hiding her face.

I looked around to see if someone had made her scared but no one seemed to be looking our way. I shrugged and looked at Rosalie when she shrugged as well.

"I don't know."

"What time is it Rose?"

"5:39"

"Edward got out of work 9 minutes ago."

Bella whimpered and clung to Rosalie as she patted Bella's Back. Her words being muffled but we heard clearly what she wanted. Edward.

And just like that, the devil himself showed up, which I was grateful for.

"Well, hello ladies."

Bella lifted her head and smiled a dazzling smile, jumping from Rose's lap into Edwards arms. He laughed and wrapped his arms around her. His eyes looking into hers to make sure she was ok. And that's when I saw it too clearly. Edward was falling for her.

He may not know it yet but he was head over heels for the girl.

"Hello beautiful. Hey Alice, I saw a shop just down the street; it opened up just last night. Looked like it had some nice clothes."

I squealed and grabbed Rosalie who was as hyper as me as she stuffed all our things in the bag we brought, flinging it over her shoulder as we raced up to the car.

Edward laughed and followed with a girl still clinging to his body.

Rose muttered something I didn't catch, when I asked her she looked over to Edward, who was trying to get Bella to simply walk beside him instead of walking backwards as she had her arms around his neck.

People started to stare and laugh at the "silly couple" they saw in the gesture.

"Alice, this guy walked past Bella and I when she started to tense up and hide against my neck. Like she does with Edward. I think someone hurt her and she saw him or thought she did."

I nodded slowly and as soon as Edward reached the car, I grabbed Bella and walked her to the other side of the car, telling her she needed to put on some shorts so she didn't have to walk so exposed. This wasn't really a matter in Brazil. I just wanted Bella to actually be comfortable. Her top was a deep shade of blue and when I showed her the shirt, and asked if she needed it or if she could go without. She didn't say anything, but looked at Edward.

I figured maybe she could walk without a shirt, after all, Rose and I were both going only in our bikinis. Jasper and Emmett would probably kill us when they found out we showed off our bodies.

I glanced at Edward and Rose who still were in a deep whispered conversation. When I turned to keep Bella busy a few more minutes, she wasn't beside me. But walking back to Edward.

"Hey! Guys! Let's go."

Edward lifted his head and spotted Bella who was slowly walking to him, her eyes trained on him. He smiled and tilted his head, stepping back so she couldn't wrap her arms around him. She looked hurt before he grabbed her hand and lifted it up to his mouth.

Always the gentleman.

We all walked to the little shop on the corner and got lost in the clothes that were on sale. Everything was so pretty! I had to have it all. Unlucky for me, I didn't bring enough money to buy out the whole store.

Dang!

How was a girl to choose?

I grinned and looked at Edward. His eyes already on me as she laughed.

"I didn't bring any money with me either."

Bella shifted slightly as she pressed herself against Edwards's side, her eyes over her shoulder. Edward turned to look and suddenly his fist was tight against his side. His green eyes glaring at a young looking boy who was staring at Bella with a surprised expression on his face. He didn't even bother to hide his obvious interest.

"Hey kid. Watch it."

"sai da que!"

Edward repeated in Portuguese, just to make sure. The boy turned to look up at Edward and I. Rose suddenly came right up beside Bella and also frowned at him.

"Bella, where have you been?!"

We all turned to look at Bella; whos gaze was on the ground. She murmured something and shrugged her shoulder. This raised a big question in our minds. She hardly noticed when we asked her a question. Who was this boy?

"Who are you, how do you know Bella?"

He turned to look at all of us and glared in a hateful way.

"If you've done anything to her, ill rip out your dick!"

Suddenly Edward pulled Bella away from the boy and pushed her behind him, his eyes beating down on the boys' dark ones.

"I didn't do anything but help her these last few days. And what about you kid?"

He didn't say anything for awhile. His expression relaxing before he noticed Bella clinging to Edwards's hand, well… arm. Edward didn't look like he minded as his body shifted towards her and pulled her closer.

"Bella, let go of him, were going to my house."

And just like that. Bella let go of Edward. We all widened our eyes and looked down at Bella whose head was down. She then looked up at Edward and back to the kid we all were starting to wonder who he was.

"I... I... I... I don't.. Want..."

And that was all that came out of Bella's mouth before she whimpered and laid her head against Edwards's chest. Her brown eyes looking up to the boy.

He didn't say anything and turned to look behind him, as if worried someone might see. He then muttered some angry words under his breath and growled at Bella.

"He's looking for you Bella. We shouldn't be out in the open."

"Then lets go back to my house, we'll talk things over."

I mumbled and smiled at the boy, my hand grabbing at his arm as I took him towards the car. Rose came on his other side as she too took his other arm. Smiling sarcastically at him. He laughed and wiggled his brows, in a playful manner, I wouldn't know.
