Chapter 7

- two years later

–Bella pov

It's been two years since the triplets were born. They look about six years old now. It was they're birthday and Nessie, yes we call Renesmee Nessie now she likes it better, wanted a party. Anthony and Carlie weren't very keen on the idea, but they went a long with it to please her. At the moment Carlie was playing the stand up in the corner like she does every morning. Nessie was fussing about with her hair clipping it brushing it. I admired Carlie's way of just ignoring Nessie as she fussed. Nessie had put Matt and Anthony on decorations, so Anthony was blowing up balloons. Nathan was off somewhere.

Nessie skipped over to me, with a big smile on her face. I knew what was coming next.

"No. Nessie." I told her. I didn't want to be Barbie Bella. Carlie laughed at me.

"Please mummy. Pretty please." She was giving me big puppy eyes, which she I couldn't resist.

"okay not to much."

"Yay." She pulled me up to the room she shared with Carlie.

"put these on please." She handed me a dress, tights and shoes, then left the room.

She came back in when I was dressed and sat me on a spiny chair. She backed combed my hair and put some jellawary on me. "All done." She smiled and kissed my cheek. She pulled me back down stairs and Carlie was still playing the piano, but now Nathan was playing with her. Those two where close like they had a secret they only knew. I wasn't going to ask because it would make them less willing to tell me. The other three were sitting on the sofa on there DSes.

"Are we ready to start?" Nessie asked.

"Yes if you put on some real music not any of this piano rubbish." Anthony said. Carlie started shaking and put her face into Nathans shoulder. Something had happened when Nessie was doing me up. Something between Carlie and Anthony. This is going to be bad because Carlie had never forte with either of her siblings before and she wouldn't know how to handle it. Anthony carried on. "Two hours a day. Carlie sometimes more. Two hours of ding ping ding. Your perfect at it already why do you need to practice more? You do it to get under my skin cause you know it does. That's why I did it and I'm not finished with it yet."

I looked over to where Anthony was pointing. He was pointing at the piano. Half the keys had been pulled up and off. In the corner of my eye I saw Nessie run other to Carlie and trying to comfort her. Then Carlie stud up and walked other to Anthony and do an evil crooked smile.

"Go a head I am not stopping you. You'll just be cutting open wounds and that my friend is sick. As they will get infected and take longer to heal." She had a way with words that most forty year olds couldn't duplet and she was a two year old who looked six.

The next thing I know Anthony has hold of Carlie's wrist and there's a crushing sound. "Fight Back sis or are you to noble to fight back. Two wrongs don't make a right and al that bull."

"No not too noble. My wrist just hurts too much and I wouldn't waste my time." She calmly told him. She shakes her wrist free and headed towards the door. "Mummy can I have some alone time please." I'm so shocked all I can do is nod.

Carlie's P.O.V

I left the house as quick as I could. I was fuming at what my so called bother had done.

~Flashback~

Mummy had just gone upstairs to mien and Nessie's room so Nessie could 'make her look pretty' not that mummy needed it. Anthony was on the step ladder putting some silly bunting up. I was playing a new song, My Chemical Romance's 'the black parade.' I am playing it when I hear Anthony's thoughts. You see my gift is I can hear people's minds (only me and Nathan know this, I wanted to tell mum but Nathan said it would make my mum sad.) also people's gift's only work to at the most 50 percent on me and I can hear my mummy and Anthony; no one else can access there minds.

Well Anthony's thoughts where angry at me for some reason. His thoughts where "killing real music. I have to stop this. Why can't I play this good. If I can't play the best no one else in this house can." Then he pushed me of the stool and pulled at some of the keys till they came off the piano. He went in for more but Matt had pulled him to the sofa.

Nathan helped back on to the stole and we played some blues on what keys where left. Then Nessie and mummy came down and it all kicked of again.

~End of Flashback~

Now I was just running to get away from him, the piano murderer. I was a fast runner, but quite clumsy and is was worse now more than any other time as my vision was clouded with tears and my wrist killed. Eventually I fell on the floor and curled up into a ball, crying.

I lay there for who knows how long, till I felt a prier of cold arms. I didn't recognise the smell, but it was vampire. I looked up and saw a man's face. The man had golden eyes and his messy hair was the same colour as Nessie's hair is.

Edwards POV

I can't bear it any longer. I need to see my Bella. It's been two years since I saw her. The Cullen's were back in Forks, not that any humans knew. Carlisle was working in a hospital in Seattle and none of us where going to school. I stud in Bella's bedroom in Charlie's house and it was obvious that no one had been in there of a long time. I walked over to where I had hid the photos and CD. I pulled out the picture of Bella and I. I kissed the picture and put it in the inside pocket of my jacket.

I jumped out the window. When I got to the ground a fimular but different sent hit me. I couldn't place how the sent was fimular. I followed the sent through the forest till and different sent hit me. The different sent was interesting it wasn't quite human or vampire it was in between some how. I decided to see what the smell was. I followed it until it stopped. That's where I found a small girl with brown hair, curled up in a ball on the floor.

She looked about six years old, defiantly not old enthoe to be in the forest by her self. She looked hurt. I'm going to take her to Carlisle, to get her checked out. I picked her up and cradled her to my chest. She looked up when I picked up. Her face shocked me as she was the spit of Bella, expect she had green eyes not brown ones. She asked me.

"Not to be rude but as your carrying me somewhere and I don't know you. who are you?"

"I am Edward. What's your name?" I asked back.

"Carlie"

"Well Carlie may I ask how old are you?"

"Six" Her thoughts where unclear. "I know I'm a mystery sometimes." I'm pretty sure I didn't say that out loud. Maybe I did I am going crazy. "Can vampires go crazy? If so your not going crazy. Although hearing voices is a sure indictor of insanity, but your not alone. We'll go thought it together." How did she know I was a vampire?

"How do you know all that?"

"You should know. Me and you we share a gift. Isn't that nice."

"Wait you can read minds too." She bit her lip and nodded. She looked so much like Bella when she did that. Her hand moved to my hair and she let out a little squeak when she moved her wrist. She was hurt. "Where hurts?"

"My wrist and my ankle."

"How come you where outside by your self."

"I and my bother had a fight and he squeezed my wrist and I ran out of the house telling everyone not to follow me and I fell."

"Oh. I going to take you to my dad he's a doctor and then I'll take you home. Is that okay?" she nodded. I walked carrying her. In a few minutes we where at the house. Alice came out.

"Edward. Were have you been I couldn't see you. We were worried that you'd done something stupid."

"Alice, calm down. I'm back now" I reassured her.

"I can see that. Who's that?" Alice pointed at Carlie.

"Carlie. She's hurt I'm going to take her to see Carlisle." I walked up to the forte door Alice held the door open for me. I called for Carlisle and the whole family came down.

"Edward what is this?" Rosalie asked. Before I could answer Esme spoke.

"She's adorable" then everyone stared to but in.

"Eddy you do go for brunettes."

"She looks like" that one wasn't finished. As Carlisle saved me,

"Edward you wanted me"

"Yes. I think she's hurt. Will you take a look at her for me?"

"Of course Edward let's take her up stairs." We took her into Carlisle's office. Carlie still clung on to me. "Edward you're going to have to let go of her. So I can examine her." I at her on the little sofa. Carlisle bent down and looked her in the eyes. "Hello what's your name? I'm Carlisle."

"Carlie." She whispered.

"Well Carlie can you tell me where hurts." She pointed to her right wrist and her left ankle. "good know this might hurt a little." She prodded and poked at her. She didn't scream, she sat there crying. "you've broken your ankle and your wrist." Carlisle walked to me and said in a hushed "I'm going to put both in plaster and give her some morphine for the pain." I nodded and he left the room. He was back in seconds. With a needle in one hand and a box in the other.

When Carlie saw the needle she flinched. Another person who doesn't like needles. Carlisle lay her down and gave her the morphine. He got to work when she was out he was done in half an hour. I waited till the plaster was dry then I carried her back to the place I found her and followed her sent to a house. I knocked on the door and it opened. A familiar beautiful voice said "Edward."It was my Bella my beautiful Bella, but she wasn't human she was a vampire, who did this to her? I shouldn't have left her I wrong in doing so.
