BPOV
The smell of decay was fresh as the walls leaked some sort of liquid I didn't bother to find out. I closed my brown eyes in hope of unfocusing. In hopes of forgetting I was here once again.
I felt alone and unsafe, when I was getting used to being safe and in the arms of my angel. Edward. Where did he go?
Why would he save me only to leave me again? No, No, he didn't leave me.
The sound of tortured moans and the painful cry of a woman in pain came blaring into my ears. A whimper came out of my throat without consent as I tried to block it. My hands shooting out to cover them.
I thought of Edward. Why did I let him in? A question that was so easy to answer became something confusing.
I loved Edward. I couldn't ever tell him though. Because I was afraid, I let my fear control me for so long. I let James take action without a fight, I had lost my hope. Now I gained it again only to have it forced away. I let the men take me.
I let them take me because I knew what would happen if I caused a scene. I was reminded again and again when I was taken out in public.
My mind was closed, Edward had changed that. I let him in and he saw a side of me no one ever had seen and no one ever would. When I first saw Edward. I felt safe. I felt happy. A feeling I was unfamiliar with.
In that point I knew Edward would come. He would fight for me. He wouldn't care what got in his way; he would come only for me.
I knew for sure now, but in return Id give him something else. Id give him my heart because he deserved it.
I then curled into a ball and tried not to cry. I knew James was quite busy with his own new toy. I didn't care as long as he left me alone. I waited for my savior. I tuned down everything else as I imagined Edwards face.
I imagined Alice and her pixie way of making everything alright, I imagined Emmett and his teasing that always made me blush. I imagined each and everyone of my family. And I felt horrible. I felt horrible because while Jacob had been there for me when I wasn't so insane; I never gave him what he wanted. I never could until Edward made me feel.
I wished to die that day when I ran in front of his car. Instead, I got something else. I got faith. I got hope. I got love.
"Bella?"
My name on his tongue was always a nice sound. I hummed in pleasure as I imagined him in here now. I imagined his arms coming around me as he whispered sweet words in my ear. His lips descended on my cheek as he tried to comfort me.
"Mmm, Edward. I wish I had told you everything."
"You can tell me now. Ill never leave you alone again."
I opened my eyes and gasped as his face was held inches from mine. My breathing stopped all together before it picked up in a wild race. I tried gasping in air as my eyes landed on his bright green orbs.
"Edward?"
"I'm so sorry."
I lifted a small hand to his face, tracing his cheek as he stared at me. My finger ran over his eye as he closed them, they ran down his nose, tracing down to his lips. My finger caught on his lower lip as I pulled it down gently.
"Your really here."
He smiled at me and chuckled softly. His lips suddenly closer as he pressed them to the side of my lip.
I closed my eyes as I grabbed at his head, pulling him closer before my lips moved to be in full contact with his. I didn't want to ever let him go.
Edward muzzled his lips with mine before pulling back, a happy smile across his face.
"Bella, we have to get out of here."
Then we heard it. Screaming had broken out as the men raced in all directions. Foot steps loud and fast as they ran down the hallway. Our door was pushed open as an officer pointed a silver gun at Edwards head and spoke some words.
Edward lifted himself and stepped away from me as his hands rose. He spoke other words I didn't understand before the officer shouted at him and rushed my Edward to the wall, slamming him to it as Edward shifted to turn around and put his hands behind his back.
"No!"
The officer looked at me and smiled gently as he held onto Edward; another officer came in and knelt in front of me.
"Voce fala English?"
"Huh?"
The officer smiled and took my hand; I cringed away from him as I lifted my own self and wiggled my way between Edward and the wall. He shifted to give me space as his head leaned down and laid against my neck.
"It's ok Bella. They don't know I'm the good guy. Haha."
Jacob walked into the room and spoke to the officers as they nodded and wrote down whatever Jacob said on a clipboard. The first officer smiled sadly at me before uncuffing Edward. He put his hands around my waist before turning us around and facing them.
"Este bom."
"Desculpas. Sr. Cullen."
"Nao. Brigado para ajudar."
They lift then and Jacob trailed behind them. Edward pulled me forward as we walked out of the filthy room with them. I came straight to James, his eyes on me and Edward as he glared in pure rage. He tried to spit in my face but missed horribly as Edward went over and punched him when the officer would have anyways.
I was surprised the police cheered Edward and not butt in. I suppose Brazil had different law matters anyhow.
"Edward?"
Edward looked at me anxiously.
"Yes Bella?"
"Can we go home?"
Edward looked at Jacob, and smiled at him. He went over and patted Jake on the back as he spoke harshly to an officer, staring at James the whole time. He then went over to me and pulled me along.
"Yes, we can."
