Edward told me not to run or something very bad will happen. I did as he told me to do. Who wouldn't? He was like an angle. The beautiful angle said, "Why Bella, thank you for coming. This will be a lot easier if you listen to me. Do not scream or talk, unless I tell you to. Do you hear me?" I nodded. "Good. Now let me tell you something, okay?" I nodded in agreement. "Okay, well do you know why I saved you from James?" I flinched at his name, but I shook my head. "Well I saved you because I like you. You smell absolutely mouthwatering. Did you know that? I'm going to tell you something else okay? Well here goes... I'm a vampire. Please don't be scared I won't do anything to you." "Yet," I thought. "You want to know something that I find frustrating?" I shook my head while tears were welling up in my eyes. He noticed because he frowned. He continued, "Please don't cry. What I find frustrating is that I can't read your mind. You see, i can read minds, but I can't read yours. Okay I know you must be scared, but you must tell no one about what I told you, okay?" I nodded. "You can talk now if you wish." I didn't talk-I was speechless. Is this a dream? Or is this reality? I had no idea because this seemed like a dream, also it seemed like reality, too.
When I got out of the woods, I went to my truck, but stopped dead in my tracks when I saw who was right next to my truck. It was James. I growled. How can one boy be so stupid? Does he want to be beaten up again or what? I whispered, "Edward, can you help me please?" I pointed to where James was when Edward was next to me. He said, "I can handle this. Stay right here okay?" "Okay," I agreed. Edward walked over to where James was. I could hear Edward growling all the way over there. Then when he got over there, I could hear him sneer in James's face, "Stay away from her, you hear me?" James glared at him and growled, "Why should I? She turned me down, no one turns me down. I will do as I please. Now move so I can go over there and teach her a less-," He didn't finish because Edward had him be the throat, choking him. "Keep your filthy hands off her. Do you hear me." James nodded. "Okay. Thank you. Now if you don't mind, when I let go of you, go over to her and apologize to her for your behavior." He let go of him and he walked over to where I was standing. Edward was next to me again. "I apologize for my behavior. Please forgive me." I looked up to Edward, he sensed my stress, and nodded for me to forgive James. "I forgive you. But don't do that again, or I will tell my father the chief police." He gulped. When he did so I smiled evilly.
When that was over, James went to his car and left. Edward walked me to my truck and held the door open. I said thanks and he returned it with a smile which made my heart skip a beat. "Please tell me your going to be more careful, Bella." "I promise ,okay? If it gets anymore out of control, I will tell Char-I mean my dad." "Thank you for promising me that. It will make me feel better."
Later on, when I got home, I went up stairs to do my homework and check my e-mail. My e-mail had only one letter from Renee, telling me about her week at the great lakes. Before Charlie got home I was finished making dinner,chicken stir-fry and bread. When he got home he took off his guns and boots, and walked into the kitchen. "Smells good, kid. Thank you. I had a long day at work. How was school? Did you like it?" All I said was "Yeah I had an okay day, except for what happened this morning with James. He tried to get to me, but Edward Cullen stopped him before he got me anywhere, so please don't do anything." His face was bright crimson. Charlie was so mad he didn't know there was a fork on the table and he slammed his fist in the table where the fork was. He screamed in pain. Blood was on the table, and I had to breathe through my mouth so I wouldn't pass out. My vision was beginning to become clouded. I was getting dizzy, then all of a sudden everything went black.
When I woke up, I was in my bed. I didn't know how I got there. Just as I was about to get up a pair of cold arms held me back. Then, I look around and saw something I did not expect to see.
