Bella 's Perspective

I knew Esme wanted to talk to me, but she probably thought I didn't. She was right. I just wanted to get as far away from them and their house as possible, but the only way I could have this freedom was if Esme came with me. They were guessing that I would do a runner, but they should know that I didn't stand a chance between Alice and her visions, unless I was with Jacob.

I didn't know where we were going, but Esme obviously did. I did want to talk to her about using the piano, so I could figure something out for Charlie's funeral. But something inside was telling me to keep my mouth shut.

We passed a long log; I decided to balance upon it. Just for fun, but it wasn't in the slightest. I think Esme was surprised that I didn't fall on my face. Just because they're typical graceful vampires.

I let out a quiet sigh.

An hour had passed, I didn't want to go back and face the rest of the Cullen's . But I had started to get tired. I tried to keep pace with Esme so she wouldn't notice. She probably thought we should be back by now.

"Bella, I think we should be heading back" Esme suggested gently. Did I have a choice?

I nodded, not making any attempt to talk, I had to go back sometime.

I mentally screamed.

We started to head back, walking with a big gap between us.

Esme's Perspective

I knew Bella didn't want to go back, she didn't want to eat or go back to the house. The poor girl, I don't believe Carlisle insisted on force feeding if she didn't improve soon, it would help her but she wouldn't like it or trust us, not that she did anyway.

It was quiet a slow walk back, not cause I was vampire. It was because Bella was exhausted.

We opened t he door of the house, to be greeted by my family. Bella tried to squeeze passed us.

"Where do you think you're going?" Alice wrapped her arms around Bella's waist.

"To read." Bella whimpered.

Alice looked at her and frowned.

"We're going to have some breakfast." Alice announced.

Bella looked confused.

"we're?" she raised her eyebrow.

I hoped she was joking, I didn't really favour human food, But if it was to help Bella I was all for it.

Emmett picked up Bella, who jumped from his skin. That's strange, because she never used to do that.

Carlisle and I glanced at each other.

"Fuck you Emmett, put me down." She said through her teeth. Bella didn't have the best language these days.

"Gladly." Emmet sat her in front of the food.

Carlisle placed his hand on Bella shoulder.

"Bella, if you eat a bit you can go, if not we all will stay here until you do" He explained gently. I hoped this worked.

Bella perspective

I whimpered, looking at the food. If I didn't eat I would be staying here forever.

The Cullen's positioned themselves around the table waiting.

I just stared at it disgusted, How I wish Victoria had killed me. I knew all eyes were on either the so called 'food' or me.

I turned away looking out the window, but accidentally caught eyes with Jasper.

"Eat" he ordered. I guessed my emotions were getting to him.

I looked back down.

I pushed the food away, I heard several people growl.

"Ok, I will compromise." I looked at Carlisle.

"Yes Bella?" he said curiously.

"If I eat this, can I go home?" I said. I wasn't meaning to be a smart ass. But if I went home I wouldn't be told to eat.

Carlisle locked eyes Alice, who shook her head. Some friend.

"No Bella" he stated.

I sighed heavily, trying to day dream. My thoughts went to Charlie, I did miss cooking for him.

I closed my eyes , ready to drift asleep.

"BELLA, STAY AWAKE" Rose snapped. Since when did she start pretending to care.

I jumped at her voice.

I started lifting the fork from the table, but thought better of it as sat it back where it was.

Carlisle's Perspective

Bella lifted her fork, trembling slightly. I looked up at my family they looked hopeful. But it was to soon, she placed it back where it was.

I heard Esme sigh beside me.

If this didn't work I thought of putting a drip in her or force feeding which I was not fond of, I had seen the nurse at the hospital try it with some patients. But if I put I drip in her, it couldn't last forever.

I thought of Jasper sending waves of hunger to Bella, but that would probably cause us to attack Bella.

"While we're here, Bella?" I said sternly. I wondered if I would get a decent answer out of her.

"mmm." she said not really paying attention.

I glanced at Edward.

"What were you up to while we were away?" Edward decided to take over, not that it was a good idea.

Bella froze and looked up to Edward, glaring.

"Nothing" she sighed. There were a lot of things she hadn't told us, I could tell.

"So, you've been staring at a brick wall?" Emmett raised one of his eyebrows.

Bella shrugged.

"What have you guys been up to, beside's sucking animal blood?" Bella bit her lip, frowning. We weren't really expecting that.

"Bella don't try and change the subject. Eat." Alice glared. She obviously could see what Bella was going to do.

"Bella, if you don't eat we will force feed you." Emmett pushed the food closer to her.

"Emmett that was just an idea." I hissed so Bella couldn't hear.

"You can't force feed me." Bella glared at him.

Emmett looked taken back.

"Wanna bet?" Emmett ripped away his chair, but was slammed back down by Edward.

Bella's Perspective

How could they threaten me with force feeding, I'm not a baby. If the Cullen's were human, I would be out here so fast.

I saw Alice smile; she probably was probably finding it amusing that I couldn't escape eating with her around.

I heard my phone ring up-stairs. So I did bring it?

I got up from the table, trying to sprint my way upstairs.

Sorry haven't updated in a while (I think).
