I was sitting in my 3rd hour one more hour till I can have lunch with Edward. Tom was known to go to the extreme when things didn't go his way. At that thought I stared aimlessly at the bruise on my arm. I thought about that night two nights ago.

"Bella get over here now" Tom slobbered he was drunk really drunk.

"Tom no stop!" I screamed as he picked me up and took me to our bedroom. I was kicking and struggling. "Where were you tonight" I screamed Tom just held my neck tighter I coughed out gasping for air. Finally after two minutes Tom released my neck and slapped me across the face I screamed in pain.

"Don't back talk me you little slut!" Tom yelled and punched me in the arm. I fell to the floor gasping for a breath. Tom angrily picked up a vase and threw it across the room aiming at my head. I dogged it.

Tom left and I limped to my cell. And texted my angel Edward.

"Hey"

He immediately replied and we just talked until I fell asleep. Dreaming of Edward.

I snapped back into reality what if Tom did something like that. Edward could protect himself but still it would be my fault. It was time to start my lesson considering this was my A.P class so I wouldn't let them watch the movie. We talked about A Midnight summers Dream. About a half hour into class there was a knock on my door. It was Edwards assistant Marsha. She was in her late 40's and just moved here from New Jersey.

"Ms. Swan Mr. Cullen wants you to meet him in his office for the rest of today he already sent in a sub." She squeaked at a high pitch thick accent. Edward wanted me in his office the rest of the day. My mind drifted off to all the things we could do. Wait Bella you just broke up with your dick boyfriend.

"Okay" I mumbled and I walked out of the room Marsha was still in the room waiting for the children to calm down and wait for the sub to come in. I walked down the halls to the office looking in on all the teenagers dazing in space. I got to the office. And Ms. Cope was sitting at her usual spot as receptionist. Ms. Cope hated me she thought I was having an affair with Edward and apparently she was already doing that in her mind. She has a huge thing for Edward and would always not let me in his office.

"Hello Ms. Cope Edward called me down to his office." I murmured she may never have a chance with Edward but she was a mean old lady!

"Oh Miss. Swan are you in trouble again?" Bitch…

"Oh no Ms. Cope Bella is never in trouble in fact she is much a saint." Edward appeared out of his office and told that old lady. Ms. Cope grumbled something about young people and their hormones. I made my way into Edwards's office. He shut the door and I looked around the same little quaint office. The walls were beige and he had his wooden desk and his leather sofa. Edward looked perfect as always but there was a sparkle in his eyes like hope? Oh swoon he had hope I needed more hope a lot more hope. I ran in to Edwards's warm embrace. His strong arms wrapped around my waist and picked me up and put me on the sofa. I cried in his shoulder as he kissed the top of my head and stroked my back.

"Bella baby do you want to get back together with him?" He asked even though I couldn't see him I heard the hurt in his voice. I shook my head.

"I hate him but he-he could hurt me or you and I don't want to go home." I cried I was getting myself back together. A little bit. Edward shock his head.

"Baby did- did he hurt you" he whispered in my ear I didn't say anything.

"Bella did he hurt you?!" Edward asked me again I never seen him so upset and angry at me or at him? Not at me I hope he was all I had left. All I did was whimper a yes. "Sweetie why didn't you tell me? I could have helped you I will have his head you know that right? Ill protect you forever you my Bella. I'm not letting you go home I'm getting your stuff tomorrow." His words touched my heart I knew he meant everything he said. Gosh I think I'm falling in love with this man.

"E-Edward thank you so much you're perfect. But I –I can't go home he will hurt me again." I blubbered just saying what I thought. I knew he was he only one who I had left.

"I know we are just friends but you can stay with me till you get back on your feet. Oh and he will never ever get within 100 feet of you. Bella can ask you when this started?" he was weary with his questions but I hope I never get back on my feet. Living with Edward would be so much fun amazing. And Edward wouldn't have to worry about room. His birth parents died when he was 4 and left him their whole estate and they were well in any other way to say it filthy rich. Edwards's adoptive parents were move then Edward could have hoped for Esme and Carlisle. Esme was a home decorator and Carlisle was one of the top surgeon's in America.

"Edward I'd love to stay with you thank you so much I can never repay you. And for your other question he started just hitting me about 5 months ago but the last 2 months have been aful. He would choke me and such but I'm done with him he's in my past and he was a fucking tool. I only stayed with him because I knew he would threaten to kill me if I broke up with him but I think because I broke up with over text he'll just leave." Edward looked taken back at this new information. He wanted to say something but he bit his tongue I knew it was something like "Why didn't you tell me". I guess I was just scared. I was living in fear for a while. But that's done that chapters over in my life I'm now free! And it never felt so good.

"Oh Edward really how can I repay you? Your being too perfect to me." I asked he knew I didn't have much money and he was letting me stay in his house for free that was too much to ask but I wouldn't say no other wise I would be sleeping in my car. Edward had a smirk in his eyes and he was smiling my favorite crooked grin

"You know you can repay me in a date?" He looked so proud but also nervious. Oh my sweet old fashion Edward. Oh my god Edward just asked me out on a date after I cried and spilled out my guts to him. And he still wanted me to go out with him?

"I'd love that but I don't think that's enough," and with that I leaned in and kissed him. Edward was surprised I could tell that much I wounded my hands in to his gosh damn sexy hair. He leaned in and depend the kiss he licked my lip asking for an entrance that I granted I moaned he was a perfect kisser he was perfect at everything and I was me. Boring plan Bella. But I didn't think about that I gasped for a breath and Edward started kissing down my neck. Taking his time like he was worshiping me. We pulled apart for a breath.

"Bella when is he not going to be home?" Edward asked

"5:00 is when he goes out drinking." I sighed leaning against Edwards's chest. Edward was playing with my hair. "Tom said I'd never see him again but I don't trust him, He'll probably wait till I'm alone at the house and do something big and bad.

"Honey so you will stay with me till you find your own place," He asked again

"Yes I'll stay with you and go out on the date." I said proudly I was going on a date with Edward Cullen!

"It's almost lunch and I don't have anything big and you already have a sub would you like to go out for lunch then we can calm you down then after head out to my place and we can get to settle in and then at 5 me and you can go get all your personal items okay love?"

"Lunch actually sounds amazing considering I haven't eaten anything today." Edward just laughed and shock his head.

Edward pulled up in to an Olive Garden Edward knew I loved this place. We walked in and Edward had his arm around my waist pulling me in to his side. My mind told me we were going to fast but it's not like we were total strangers we knew basically everything about each other. So we were past that stage of getting to know each other we already had out first kiss. I've been to his house before but he had never seen mine. My mind pulled me back in to reality when there was a 20 something year old eyeing my Edward. Wow Bella you aren't even his girlfriend yet and you're being possessive!

"Hi umm I'm Lauren and I'll show you to your table." She smiled and fluttered her eye lashes but it looked like she was twitching. Once we were seated at our table me and Edward were just staring at me it made me feel self conscience

"Bella did I tell you how breath taking beautiful you look today?" he asked raising one eye brow, smooth Cullen. I blushed at the compliment. "Ahh and there's that beautiful blush my blushing Bella." That just made me blush more.

"Edward do you think we are going to fast I mean I'm going to be staying with you for a while and we already had our first kiss." I shrugged I felt weird discussing this with him because if anything I was the one who wanted this to go a long way. Edward thought while chewing on a bread stick

"I don't think so… I mean we have known each other forever. We are already past that awkward sage. And with the kiss don't a lot of people kiss on the first date?" I nodded

"Your right sorry I just worry I don't want to lose you." I mumbled my checks turning red.

"You'll never lose me I'll always be here forever."

We were heading back from the restaurant to Edward's house. Lunch was care free and fun we really talked not as friends but as lovers. I laughed so much with him. Just being around him made me happy. We were both jamming out to Carrie underwood I knew Edward wasn't a big fan of Country but damn you just have to love it. I was so in to the song that I didn't realize we were here.
