Chapter 4

In the mirror she saw Edward's face and he was having a scary-evil looking grin on his face. She felt his presence. The image was showing that he was exactly behind her. She turned to look, but, he wasn't there. Her breathing rate was increasing tremendously and she was already sweating. Sweat was dripping from her forehead and this gets even worse when she sees him in the mirror as she looks into the mirror again.

"Bella, I want your blood. I want you in my arms." Edward whispered in the air. She felt like it was real. She could feel his cold breath breathing down her spine.

Bella yelled out "Noooo…!'

She felt a hand was placed on her shoulder.

"Bella, Bella are you okay?!" Jacob shook her vigorously. Bella opened her eyes. It was all a dream. The flight attendant came to see what the chaos was and she looked worried. Everyone in the plane was really quiet and stared at her. Even a baby stopped crying, she saw the tears in the baby's eyes.

"Miss, are you okay? Here's a glass of orange juice. Maybe that will help you to relax and calm down." The lady handed over a cup of orange juice to her.

She took a sip and slowly drank the juice. Her eyes were on everyone else on the plane. They seemed curious.

Jacob wiped off her sweat with a cold towel the lady gave to him. Alice was really worried with Bella's condition. She was sitting behind them. She asked Bella what she dreamt about. Bella explained to her. She started to breathe normally again. Maybe it was the juice, after all orange had vitamin C in it. Helps you to relax.

"Can it really be that Edward is hunting you down? I don't really understand. His face was really hard to read. He can lie his expressions, since he knows that I'm watching him."Alice explained to all of them.

Jasper, Emmett and Rosalie was also in full concentration listening to Alice's explanation.

"So, what do you think? Why is he coming back to hunt Bella?" Jacob asked as he looked into Bella's eyes. He was already reading her mind of what she exactly wanted to ask. Only, she was still in her state of shock.

"I don't know Jake; I am truly confused myself. But, I'll tell all of you if my vision changes or when I see anything." Alice frowned.

Alice was supposed to know everything, since she was the one who was able to predict the future. But, she can't help it, the future changes frequently.

Jacob cuddled her. Somehow, she felt cold. Her teeth were chattering. Maybe Jacob saw that.

She tried to close her eyes. She woke up several times, but managed to take a nap at the end.

She found peace in her sleep. She didn't have any nightmares after that. Maybe it was because of Jacob's snore that blew her worries away.

They arrived at the airport in Arizona safely. They took their luggage bags and got hold of two cabs to go to Renee's house.

She put her head on Jacob's arm and continued her sleep. After all that she has been through, who could blame her of not having enough sleep? He was happy that now she had already calmed down and forgot all about Edward. That bloody blood sucker.

Jacob was able to hear her heart beating. The rate was normal again. He loved the fact that her heart beats for only one person, and hopefully it was him.

He can hear her breathing. She was breathing through her mouth.

Bella curled up to him in the cab.

Luckily, they had the cab all to themselves. The Cullens were in another cab. They didn't want to disturb Bella and him. Or in a more negative way, they don't want to be in a same cab with a smelly dog. Jacob looked at the positive side; the fact that, they didn't want to disturb both of them. He needed some time alone with her.

Bella woke up. "Good morning, sunshine. How are you feeling today?" Jacob greeted her and kissed her forehead. He looked at her like she was a beautiful sunflower you pluck in a perfect garden. He made her feel like she was the prettiest girl that ever lived.

" 'M kay…a bit dizzy though." She slowly opened her eyes and yawned; closing her mouth. She knew her morning breath is able to take down a bear, maybe even the grizzly bear. She didn't want to kill Jake of course. She still loves him. Suddenly, a so-called "brilliant plan" came to her mind; killing Edward with her morning breath. That would make things a whole lot easier. All she has to do is to eat lots and lots of onions and don't brush her teeth at all before she goes to bed. It occurred to her that her plan was so crazy, that it might just work!

"What are you thinking about, Bells?" Jacob was now worried maybe she has totally gone out of her mind. She laughed like a crazy witch having a mischievous plan. She was rubbing her hands together in an extremely disturbing fashion as well, an evil glint in her eye.

She burst into maniacal laughter, but abruptly stopped. The thought of her telling Jacob what she was thinking about was hilariously crazy and stupid!

Jacob smiled and looked away. Deeply inside he seriously thinks that Bella is out of her sane mind. Either that or she's on drugs. No, she's still sane enough to know that drugs are not good – or is she?

The cab journey to Renee's house ended with the same laughter from Bella. Jacob thinks that maybe they'll need something very strong to calm her down. Maybe a knock on the head will do it.

The cab stopped in front of a beautiful modern Mediterranean house. Phil's Toyota was parked outside. Bella looked out of the window, she feels like there was something definitely wrong somewhere. Firstly, the front door was opened wide and Phil is supposed to be at work. He's a coach for the middle school's football team. Today is a working day for him. Jacob was already taking out the luggage bags from the car.

Alice came running from the cab behind. "Oh my god Bella, something bad has happened here!" She was already in tears. Jasper patiently paid for both taxies.

Bella came running towards Alice "What happened Alice? What is it? What's wrong? Tell me!" Bella was shaking Alice's arms.

Jacob sniffed something. He straight away went inside the house without hesitation.

"Take care of Bella for me, Em." He ordered Emmett

Bella looked over at Jacob and back to Alice.

"I'm so sorry Bella! I think that…I think that Edward…he's HERE!" Alice was struggling with her words.

"Edward, he's HERE!" in Alice's voice ran through her mind and repeated so many times. It was heard like a tape recorder.

Bella fell to the ground. She laid there motionless. Alice was in front of her, everything that she said was a total blur to her now. It was all going down the drain now. Her life is going down the drain.

There were loud crashes heard from inside the house. "Where's Jacob? What's happening inside there?" – Thoughts that ran through her mind. She looked towards the opened front door.

Jacob was nowhere in sight. She crawled up from the front yard to the door. She felt someone lifted her up and put her arms around their neck. It was both Jasper and Emmett. They were there to help her. Suddenly as they were walking towards the door, she saw blood stains. She forced herself up. All she was thinking about now is her mother. Whose blood stain was on the front porch?

She was calling her "Mum, mum! Where are you?" again and again inside the house. But, there was no reply.

Alice, Emmett, Jasper and Rosalie came along behind her as she entered the house.

"Bella…Bella!" She heard; it was Jacob. He sounded like he was hurt.

Bella rushed to where Jacob's voice was coming from.

She was really shocked at what she saw. She gasped. The living room was covered with blood splatters.

There was blood everywhere. It was like someone killed a deer with a chainsaw and the blood is spread throughout the entire room. It was a crime scene. Everything had its place, but now, it seemed like a hurricane crashed into this particular living room.

What really happened here? Who died? Where's Jacob and Phil and most importantly, where's her mother?
