Me: *picks up plastic egg* yay! More candy!

Edward: *makes face* how do find that stuff appealing?

Me: This stuff is appealing cause each bite is like a magical wonderland *stuffs more candy in mouth*

Jasper: 'Magical Wonderland?'

Me: *eats more candy* Don't judge me. This helps me get away from my sadness.

Edward: what sadness?
Me: The sadness that means that I don't own Twilight, that sadness.

Ed&Jazz: Oh

Chapter 7

LPOV

"Night Lily!!" we chuckled at the family before letting sleep take over...again.

I woke up to the sun peaking over the mountains to shine through my window. The sun?! Shocked, i shot up right only to be constricted by the strong, warm arms of my beloved Seth. The events of last night hit me and i looked down at my wrist only to see it's been restricted by a black brace. Oh god, he really visited me in my sleep. according to Edward, the only way he knew something was wrong was because he couldn't read my thoughts anymore. I couldn't believe it. He was in my dreams and he injured me from there.

I looked up at Seth only to see him sleeping soundly. He looked so peaceful. His facial features softened, his lips parted slightly, his arms holding me protectively against him, and his hair all over the place. As i looked at this peaceful person next to me i couldn't help but think of the dream that i had before Ross interfered. Seth in wolf form, injured. Then when the dark figure came in, he hurt my Seth as he was trying to protect me. Ross. Ross was that dark figure and i knew it. he could hurt Seth and i wouldn't be able to live with myself if i was the reason Seth was hurt in any way.

Then it hit me. If Ross can hurt me in real life and my dreams, what's stopping him from trying to hurt me emotionally?

Oh, that's right. Nothing. Nothing is stopping him from hurting me in any way, shape, or form. There's nothing that's going to stop him and that's not what scares me. What scares me is that now he's got more than enough reason to go after me. Ah! Why can't he just give up already?!

"Your wrong you know." I jumped at the sound of the voice only to see Edward leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed over his chest.

"Sheesh Edward, you could make some noise when you move around, you know." I giggled halfheartedly.

He chuckled, "Your still wrong you know?"

"what about now?" I asked.

"About there being nothing stop him from hurting you again." He walked over to my desk and sat in the deep purple chair. "He's a heavy sleeper ain't he?"

I shrugged, loving his subject change but knowing I would have to get back to it anyways, "How am I wrong?"

"There is something that's stopping him." He said seriously.

I sat up, "oh yeah? What's stopping him from hurting me? What's stopping him this time? Nothings stopped him before, what's so different about now?"

He sighed, "You know what's different? The last time he hurt you-not counting last night of course- but the last time, you had no one. But now, you have a family. A family who would fight to the end then let that monster hurt you. Not just that, but look beside you. You have your own personal protector. That guy right there, would rather die than see you hurt again. You have people who want to protect you. That's what's different this time."

I looked down knowing he was right- "Always am." "Shut up"- but this was my fight, I didn't want to drag them into this. I didn't want them to be hurt because of me.

I heard Edward groan, "Ugh! Your just like Bella!"

"Your acting like that's a bad thing."

He sighed, "It's not but unlike her, you'll listen to what I have to say rather than interrupt me with some stupid excuse."

I shrugged, "Yeah well, I just don't see the point in arguing when I know I'm not going to win."

"Your going to fit in this family just fine, you know?", he chuckled.

I sighed, "Yeah"

"what's wrong now?"

"It's just, I know you want to protect me and all but I just don't need more people getting hurt because of me. I mean, take Mark and Loraine for instance. They did absolutely nothing but let me stay in their home and they got pulled in just like everyone else in my life did. Everywhere I go, someone gets hurt and I don't think I can take it if more people-someone I know gets hurt." I couldn't help but think of all the people who were hurt because of and landed in my mental picture of my old foster parents and my old friend Jack.

"I know. But, do you honestly think that one lonely vampire is going to hurt all seven of us including the wolves?" He got up, walked over to my bed and sat down, "You got to have a little faith in us."

I smiled, "oh yes, I wouldn't want to wound your ego now would I?"

He grinned then it faltered. "what is it?"
"Um, it's nothing really." he said looking down.

"Edward. Come on, not all of us are mind readers you know."

He sighed, "Um, er-I'm sorry about what happened to your friend, Jack."

"Oh, yeah, Jack" I sighed, my eyes starting to burn from the upcoming tears.

"it's okay to cry you know. It always used to make Bella feel better when she cried." He pulled me into a hug.

I leaned into his embrace, "it's just hard to find out that way. I-I mean, he's g-gone. He's really gone. He helped me escape, and he's gone."

"I know, I know, it's okay. Let it out." Edward soothed as he rubbed my arm up and down.

"It wasn't supposed to be this way. I didn't want him to go back." Tears flowed endlessly down my cheeks and made their way to his shirt. "I knew it was going to happen. I knew he was going to get hurt. I just knew it. Why does Ross do this to m-me?" Sobs took over and Edward just sat there rubbing my arm, saying soothing words.

When my sobs died down, I pushed myself off of Edward, "thanks, I think I needed that."

"your welcome. Now," He got up and headed towards the door, "Esme says breakfast is ready so you might want to wake up Seth over there."

I looked over and sure enough, Seth was still sleeping. "my god, he slept through all that?"

Edward chuckled, "Yep, he could probably sleep through an earthquake if he wanted to. Well, wake him up and downstairs be Alice comes in and you don't want to know what she has planned for you."

I shuddered at the thought of what Alice has planned and waited for Edward to leave before crawling over to Seth. Edward's right. Seth is a heavy sleeper.

So this is kind of a filler but i had to get something up before the week(stupid school).

alright so nothing much, but hoped you enjoyed and don't forget to review.
