"Honey, where were you? What about the rules?" I walked up to take her in my arms but to my surprise, she shuddered away and glared at me. The way she moved – there was something robotic about it. She was not herself.
"Bella, what's wrong? What happened?"
"I'll tell you what happened. Emmett and I – we're getting married."
I stared at her.
"What?"
"You heard me. I don't love you, Edward. I love Emmett and Emmett only. This whole thing has been a game. And Emmett doesn't love Rose. He loves me. So I'm leaving you."
Her words stung and tore at my heart. I placed both of my hands on either side of her face and stared hard at those warm chocolate brown eyes that I loved so much.
"Bella, what's
gotten into you? I know what you're speaking isn't true!"
It
was times like these where I seriously wished I could read her mind.
Bella struggled out of my grasp, so I grabbed her shoulders instead.
"Don't touch me!" She cried and broke free. "You don't believe me? I'll prove it to you." And with that, she flipped open a sleek, silver camera I didn't know she was carrying and shoved it into my chest.
"Watch."
I watched with horror at Bella and Edward kissing passionately on the floor.
"How could you?" I whispered, staring at her.
BPV Each word I spoke made me want to cry. I wanted to stop. Really, I did, but with the imaginary restraints Derek put on me, I couldn't.NO! Edward! Don't believe me! This is a trick! It's Derek!
I wanted to scream these words, but nothing came out. Instead, I watched myself shove the camera into Edward's stone chest. I watched as he stared with horror at the small screen. And I watched as he looked up at me with hurt-filled topaz eyes.
"How could you?" He whispered.
I wanted to go to him. To wrap my arms around him and tell him there was no other. That I loved him more than life itself. But I knew that was not the case. Instead, I felt my lips slip into a sick grin and I wanted to kill Derek. So much. Without answering, my legs began to move on their own accord out the door and I felt myself being carried back to where the closet was. Where Derek was. As soon as I entered the closet, the power was released and I felt myself crashing down onto the floor in a heap of sobs. Derek chuckled and I glared spitefully up at him.
"Why? Why'd you have to go ruin my life like that? What did I do to you?"
"What did you do to me? You came to me."
I heaved another sob.
"Come, Bella, this time, there's no one to save you."
He bent down to pick me up but I screamed.
"NO! I won't go with you! I won't! Edward! Help…….mmmm! MMMFFF!!" He had already pressed his hand onto my lips and I was struggling to speak.
"Be quiet Bella…"
I immediately felt my lips press together in silence. His hand left and he planted his lips delicately to my forehead.
"Let's take leave. You will be pampered tomorrow morning. This time, I will take you to my real house…you will be treated just like a princess."
