The rest of the week went by without anything interesting. On Friday Charlie came back home and Jasper and I went over.

He got the job. He would move. And even though I was sad I was also happy. After what happened with Carlisle I realized that I would still have a father. Someone who would protect me. We grew very close over the last days.

I decided to stay till Sunday. Saturday Jasper and I went shopping. We bought paint and a few lamps and all that stuff. And for the first time I got to see his closet.

It was messy on one side. Jeans and shirt were thrown around but on the other side there was a tux and his army uniform. I somehow wondered what he would look like in it.

I also noticed that his shoes were organized. Probably Alice fault.

We painted the wall behind our bed in a deep blue. It somehow fitted the flag and it brought the bed out better.

When I got home I felt like a hurricane went right through our house. Charlie had tried to pack a few things and ended up deciding whether or not to throw away a few things and since he couldn't make up his mind he left everything messy as it was.

I helped him a little and soon decided to do it on my own. On Monday after school I started organizing everything. I cleaned up a bit so that I could walk around the house without breaking my neck. I threw away most of the things he didn't need. When I was done with the living room I started with the kitchen. I only left enough for us to eat from and packed everything away.

Tuesday I started with his room and the bathroom. And by Wednesday I had everything packed up that was unimportant for now. Charlie had started looking for a flat or house in LA and soon found some good choices and decided to leave over the weekend. I hadn't seen jasper the last 3 days and missed him. He went on a longer hunting trip since it was sunny outside. He called me yesterday evening to tell me he would be back by Friday and we would do something funny that afternoon.

Thursday I sorted out my room and closet. And organised a car for the moving. Emmett and Jasper volunteered but Edward somehow didn't come along. The whole I had been there he didn't talk to me and I didn't mind. If he wanted to act like a little girl….

While I went through my things I noticed a CD. It was from my first Broadway show. I sighed and left it on the desk.

Charlie and I decided that it would be good for me to stay at the Cullen's for the weekend. The other didn't mind. Carlisle had offered to help me study for a biology test on Monday and I gladly accepted.

As I packed my things I wondered what it would be like to always love there. In a house where everybody knows everything. Where there are no secrets. It was somehow fun for just a few days but forever?

When I was done packing I quickly went down and made Charlie some dinner. He would leave tomorrow morning to look for the houses. When I was done I went down to my car and couldn't help but smile. Jasper and I had an argument about me coming to the house all alone. He insisted that I would wait till he was back from his hunting trip with Emmett. I told him I could very well drive on my own even though he always drove and when he ran out of reasons for me to wait he had to give in and pouted.

When I arrived at the Cullen's house Edward was standing outside and obviously waited for me. I took a deep breath and got out of the car. "Hello Edward" I smiled even though I felt like just ignoring him.

"Hey…. Uhm can I talk to you for a second?" he seemed nervous.

"Sure. What's up?"

"Well I wanted to apologize. For my behaviour. I know I made it hard for you to stay here and I wanted to say sorry."

"Why did you do it?"

"Well… come on Bella. Can't you just accept?"

"No. I'm not mad at you so you won't have to apologize. I just would like to know why you treated me that way." This all seemed so strange.

"You know what? I didn't do anything wrong. I don't like you. I don't like you. You're a plain human girl and I don't see what Jasper sees in you. You will go away from him and he will be alone. And I swear to god Bella if you hurt him and he gets bad again I will hunt you down myself and kill you. Slowly. It won't be easy for you. Jasper had a hard time accepting the way we live and you won't destroy that!"

I was scared. Scared and hurt. How could he think I would every do jasper any harm? I loved him too much for that.

"And just so you know. This whole apologizing was Esmes idea and I only did it because I love HER so much. From now on we will pretend to be good to each other and if you tell somebody about this talk we just had I will hurt you. Got it?" he looked at me with a death glare and I felt the teas already starting. I had to get away from here.

I nodded and he took off. He ran into the woods and I went back to my car. As I opened the door to get my bag I couldn't help but let the tears fall. I was so scared.

Suddenly I felt a cold hand on my shoulder and I screamed and kicked around me.

"Bella stop!" Carlisle. It was just Carlisle. He took me in his arms and tried to sooth me.

"What happened? What did Edward say?" he whispered.

"I can't tell you. He will kill me. I have to get away." I tried to get out of Carlisle's arms. I wanted to run away and never let them find me.

"Bella you can tell me. I will protect you I promise."

I thought about it for a moment and than started crying again. I whispered "I can't" over and over again and soon I fell asleep.

Carlisle's POV

I couldn't believe it. I did hear what Edward said to her and I wanted to kill him myself. For the last few years I wondered if it would have been better to just let him die. He wasn't a grown up man as I had assumed. His parents held him save inside the house and he wasn't what most man or young boys his age had been like in 1917. He was drilled to fight. To be a soldier and that was how he defended himself. He scared everyone around him.

But Bella wasn't someone who could hurt our family. Jasper once had let me on the feelings Bella shared for him and it was beautiful. It was pure love. The same thing I felt for Esme.

And Bella was a wonderful young woman. She was strong but she didn't believe it. Her self esteem was low because people would always push her around. But when I saw her dancing on the stage I saw a confident and graceful young woman. A woman who would stand up for her own. She was strong. All she needed was love. Charlie loved her that's for sure. But we as vampire had a different kind of love. We loved stronger more passionate. And that was what Bella needed.

I looked down at her and sighed. How often had I wished for a little girl? Sure I had Rosalie and Alice. But they were stuck in their own worlds. Bella showed me she needed me. Like she needed a father. I would help her study tomorrow. And I could still remember how she came into my office over the week she spent with us. She would listen to stories I told her and she would smile and laugh. Or she would open her eyes when I told her stories of how I used to fight or how I experienced things. She would sit in front of me and listen careful as to not miss a word.

Other times I would watch old movies with her and she would fall asleep on my shoulder or she would sit in the kitchen and eat ice cream and explained to me how the perfect ice cream should be. She would come to me of there was something in a quiz she didn't know.

We had a great time and I saw her as my daughter. A daughter I would protect and honour. My little girl.

I heard the front door slam shut and knew it was Edward.

When I heard him outside the door I quickly went outside.

"We have to talk Edward"

"Why? Because of the human. I know you heard me."

"Edward I will not allow you to threaten my daughter!" I screamed. Not loud enough for Bella to wake up but louder that I would normally speak.

"She's not your daughter Carlisle. You have Alice and Rosalie. I can't remember you spending as much time with them…"

"Listen to me Edward. And do it closely. Alice and Rosalie don't need me. They are on their own. But Bella needs protection and she is my daughter just like you are my son. I love her Edward and if you will not learn how to treat her right I want you to go."

"She will go Carlisle" he whispered. And than I dawned on me. Edward had once told me he had a sister. And she got married and left him. Alone.

"Does she look like you r sister?" he nodded.

"Edward she won't go. You have to trust her. Tell her why you act that way and she will forgive you. You have to trust. She's Bella. She wants nothing more than a brother in you. And this is your chance. You can take it. Have your sister back."

"Maybe I should talk to her now." I nodded and he went in to the bedroom.

Edward POV

"Hey" I said as Bella woke up. And I heard the way her heartbeat got faster.

"You don't have to be scared Bella. A brother will never hurt his sister." I smiled. Hoping she would understand but she looked confused. I sighed.

"Bella I have to apologize. Truly this time. You know… when I was 16 I had a sister. She was 18 and ready to get married. We were really close. And one day after the weeding she was gone. I never saw her again. And you remind me of her. For so long I had wished to have my sister back for just one day and than I saw you at school and I thought maybe this was it. You were back for me. But than fell in love with jasper and I thought that maybe you would leave. And than I would not only lose a sister but also a brother. I… I'm so sorry. Bella. Please forgive me…."

I looked up into her face and saw her smiling. She opened her arms and I slipped into them she held me as strong as she could. "It's ok Edward. I understand. I just wish you had told me sooner. I would have understood better."

We sat for a little while and Bella told me stories about NY and her shows. Suddenly there was a knock on the door and Jasper head was shown.

"Hey did I interrupt something?" he asked and smiled at Bella.

"No. we were just talking" she answered and gave him a kiss.

"Well than come on downstairs there is a surprise for you." He said and took her hand.

When we were in the living room I noticed all sorts of stuff for Bella. Popcorn and candy and Carlisle held a large bowl of ice cream and grinned at her while he handed it to her. "Tell ice cream queen did I do it right?" he said and Bella laughed and looked at it. "Well done dad" she stopped at the word and we all could see how happy that made Carlisle. He sat down with Bella and jasper and said "let the show begin." And than there was a movie starting. "That's me" I heard Bella whisper.

"Yes that's you. It the CD from your desk I thought we should all watch it" jasper said and for the next 2 hours we watched Bella dance and I couldn't help but be happy. I finny had my sister back.
