Disturbances
Last chapter- I grinned at my days work. I realised we were at my house, I hopped out without another word and shut the car door. I waved to Mike and headed towards the door. The wall clock read 5:00 "Maybe I can just ring Jacob, and beg for forgiveness and ask him to go pick up my car "I grinned sheepishly at the thought of his reaction. I began to dial his number.
Bella's POV
The phone rang once, twice, three times someone picked up.
"Hello" it was Jacob he sounded groggy I must have woke him.
"Hi Jake, sorry I didn't come over ….."I was interrupted
"Bella are you all right, what happened?" it came out in a slur, he sounded worried and his voice strained.
"Im sorry Jake I forgot that I had work and then my car broke down" I said as apologetically as I could.
"Wait how'd you get home?" He said confused
"Mike drove me home it was a nightmare"
Jacob just laughed I didn't find what was so funny.
"Shut up it's not funny"
"So-sorry how'd it go with mike?" he began laughing again
He was starting to annoy me now; I guessed I could wait till Charlie got home and ask him to go get my car.
"Fine then, if you're going to be like this I'll be going then!" I knew that would make him be quiet.
"Wait don't go! I'll be good what did you need?" he said frazzled
I smiled "well I was wondering if you could go pick up my car it's at my work. The keys are on the floor, pleeeeese." I did the best pathetic begging voice ever.
"Sure sure I'll be there in a few minutes" it sounded like he was patronizing me.
"Thanks Jake I owe you" I then hanged up.
A few minutes after I heard a car "Gee that was quick" I looked out the window it was Charlie he was late. I sat on a bar stool pretending to read a much worn copy of 'Withering heights'. Charlie stomped through the door and threw his jacket on to the hanger.
"What the matter?" I questioned just slightly interested
He mumble something incoherently, he obviously didn't want to talk about it.
A moment after another car pulled up, strait away I knew it was Jacob, the cars engine grinded to a halt.
"Bella you seriously need a new car that ones ancient!" he said overly amused then threw the keys at me.
"Hey Jake how are ya buddy!" Charlie yelled from the sofa to consumed in the football game to get up.
"I'm good!" Jacob yelled back
"Thanks Jake" I was truly grateful about him getting my car.
"No prob, Hey! I've got an idea how about you come back with me to my place." he was jumping up and down as he said this.
"Sorry Jake I promised Edward I'd go see him once he came back from his trip"
"Stupid bloodsucking party pooper of a boyfriend" He hissed in a revolted tone. I stared at him he understood why.
"Sorry"
"Good-buy Jake see you soon" I showed him to the door. He stoped under the porch.
"I really miss the days when it used to be simpler and it was just me and you" a frown spread across his face, his eyebrows furrowing covering his eyes in a dark shadow. It really pained me to see him like this. I couldn't help it I went over and gave him a hug. I burrowed my face into his chest and said "I miss those days to Jake but im happy, I'll come and see you as soon as possible."
"Okay, see you later" his voice still sounding hurt, he pushed me off. He turned around and headed into the forest. I stood there staring out into the sheeting rain unable to move. I twisted around and headed back inside, I took my time getting to my room nothing really to do and all of my major exams were done. I decided to email René my computer groaned to life, taking its time to turn on I began tapping the monitor impatiently. I had 22 new messages jut from today all from René. The latest one read….
Bells you haven't replied in forever are you okay? Hows school and Edward? Philip has been promoted to head manager I'm so proud of him. Please come back to Phoenix I really miss you.
I replied….
Mum I'm fine don't worry. Edward is fine, I'm really happy. Tell Philip congratulations from me. I miss you too mum but I've grown to like the rain and the freezing cold. You know I couldn't leave Edward. I'll try and come down to visit you this autumn holiday (when it's not too hot)
Love from Bella
I headed down stairs, trying to sneak past Charlie was usually easy because he was too consumed by the TV, but not today but I got caught. "Where ya going kiddo?" more aware than normal.
"I'm going to visit Edward" I said innocently.
"Hmp" is all he said I took it as a 'Fine'
"Be back before ten"
Running to my car I thought I saw something in the forest, I stoped to have a better look but by then it was gone. "Must be imagining things" I shook my head then reefed the car door open. A few minutes later I turned into the Cullen's driveway I expected them all to be there but it was just Edwards silver Volvo. "I wonder if the rest have extended there trip" I mused to myself. The sun was just beginning to set. I pulled the car into the drive way, I expected Edward to be out in a flash but he didn't come out. Their enormous entrance door was open so I let myself in. It was so eerie and dark without them here. I began my way up the stair case walking to Edwards room I pushed his door in slightly and had a peek, no one. I felt a cold pair of hands wrap around me, it made me scream.
"Sorry love I didn't me to frighten you" his voice as smooth as silk whispering in my ear.
"Its fine you just took me by surprise" I said between gasps still trying to catch my breath. That crooked smile came across his face then he kissed me. He pulled me tighter to his cold hard chest, in a strange way he was warm. I wrapped my arms around his neck and tangled my hands into his hair. Never taking his lips away from mine he smiled. My legs began to shake he picked my up and sat me down on his lap on the coach. I was careful not to make any sudden movements; I began to wrap my legs around him. He just sighed but allowed it. I traced the out line of his lips the tasted like nothing I'd ever tasted. He made a path from my lips to my collar bone and back. My heart was all ready going all out it, it went into a full sprint when he began to trace the out line of my shoulders continuing down my back and around my legs. He just laughed, he picked me up and began to cradle me, and this was his way of saying enough. "I love you" the way he said it made me melt, I slid my body down till my head was in his lap. I tilted my head up so I could see his face" I love you more". He just rolled his eyes "you have no idea how much I love you Bella" his voice was so low that maybe I wasn't meant to hear it. Edward began stroking my hair, I lay there content. I turned slightly so I could watch the sunset, birds flew from tree to tree they looked so serine. Edward froze pulling me up into a vice grip into his lap.
"What is it?" I whispered. He said nothing all he did was stare out the window. I followed his train of sight; the birds were now flying away, in the distance I could see the trees moving. What ever it was out there it was big and it was heading for the house. Edward grabbed my hand and like a ghost we flew down the stairs and stoped at the door. "What's the matter Edward?" my voice just an octave too high. As I'd finished my sentence Emmett came running through the door blowing it off its hinges, Jasper right behind him. I was confused "where are the others?' no one answered. I was frustrated no one was answering my questions. "Some one tell me what the hell is going on!" I yelled. Edward looked tense I just nodded for him to go on. "we have a visitor" I just nodded not understanding why it was a big deal
"An unwanted visitor" saying just a bit slower and exaggerating the words. My breathing tempo increased, air coming in much too quick and shallow it made me dizzy. The room began too spin, tears were welling up in my eyes.
The first name that popped to mind was "Victoria?" Emmett shook his head, I felt somewhat relieved. "It's the Volturi" Edward said warningly watching my every facial and body movement. "Are they coming to check?" All three vampires nodded. Edward pulled me close and whispered in my ear "Don't worry Bella we'll protect you, you'll be safe" I relaxed but only slightly.
