You Remind Me
Chapter 8
Bella's POV
"Elizabeth, you've been in there for five minutes now. It does not take that long to use the bathroom." I exhaled slowly and stood up from the closed toilet seat- where I've been sitting since I've entered the bathroom, and walked over to the door.
"Uh it does if your taking a shit." I said curtly. I heard him huff angrily.
"Elizabeth do not speak to me like that." I closed my eyes to control my temper…which I'm sure would get me into too much trouble to handle.
"S-sorry sir." I said quietly. I flushed the toilet to make him think I used the restroom, and walked over to the door; unlocking it. Sir stood there, looking frustrated. I dropped my head down to the floor and walked out. I chanced a look up.
"Sir, c-can I sleep in my room tonight?" I asked hopefully. He sighed and looked to be deep in thought.
"Sure." He said, walking away. I stood there in shock - he actually said yes, and didn't push me to do anything. I smiled to myself as I walked to the only room I felt safe, and cuddled on the bed, under the covers. Maybe I should just give up.
Charlie's POV
The search dogs arrived late, making my patience and nerves to sky rocket even higher. I got out of my cruiser harshly, slamming the door loudly.
"What the hell took you so long?" I demanded, to the other officers.
"Sorry chief, we had a little problem." Officer Shane said, ashamedly. I furrowed my brows.
"A Problem?" I said boorishly. "A bigger problem then my 17 year old daughter missing?" I yelled, in questioning. He stood there in silence, while everyone else watched the scene I was making.
"Sir I-"
"Forget it. I don't care why, just send the damn search dogs out!" I barked out. "And you call yourself police officers? Yeah. fuckin. right!" I walked over to Bella's truck and pulled out the extra flashlight. It was twilight and the sun was just about gone. If they don't take finding Bella seriously, I'll go search myself.
"Call me if you get a scent. Don't dick around." I ordered and then set of into the woods.
Bella's POV
I sat up quickly at the sound of a groan. I knew it came from Edward. He was in way worse condition then me, and that made me feel bad. I'm considered lucky compared to him. I climbed out of the bed and walked over to the nearest wall to Edwards room and sat against it gently. I wonder if he can hear me? I tested my theory by banging on the wall as lightly as I could. With each thud I did, the wall would shake. I raised an eyebrow to this. If I can't brake him out, I'm gonna brake in. As I got closer to the bottom right of the east wall, it sounded more and more hollow. I banged on the wall all the way to behind the dresser, and that's when it broke right through. I looked up quickly to see if sir was coming, after realizing he wasn't I set for the hole I made in the wall. It was about fist size. I kneeled down and peered through the wall. I internally did a happy dance, this wall did indeed lead to Edwards room.
"Edward?" I whispered loudly through the hole. I heard a grunt, and smiled.
"Edward this is Bella, so please don't be startled. I'm coming in…uh through the wall." I said, as I giggled, and set to removing the loose plaster.
"Don't." I heard him cough out. I raised an eyebrow.
"Don't? Edward I have to…"
"Trouble." he whispered loud enough so I could hear. I shook my head - though it was unnecessary.
"I won't get caught, just stay quiet…so I can get this done." I said, in a hushed tone back to him. He stayed quiet which I was thankful for, as I finished the wall. Once I had made a big enough hole, I took my foot and pushed the rest through causing all the plaster to land with a crash onto the basement. My eyes widened, when I heard sir's door creak open.
"Edward, be quiet. I'll be back." I said to him. I stood up quickly, pushing the rest of the loose plaster into the basement, then pulled the dresser in front of it. I then swiftly ran to my bed, got in, and covered myself- as if I was sleeping. My door creaked open…
"Elizabeth? Did you make that sound?" he said angrily. I pretended to wake up, with a yawn.
"Something wrong sir?" I played ignorantly. He huffed.
"Guess not, go back to sleep." he demanded and then shut my door, rather harshly. I listened for the sound of his door to signal he's closed it, and got back out of bed. I walked back over to the dresser, moved it inaudibly, and looked at the hole I had made in the wall. It was huge. About the size of a door you see in the stair basement. A five year old would fit perfectly through it. I walked over to the nightstand, grabbed the candle, a lighter, and walked back to the hole.
"Edward I'm coming in.." I whispered to him. He grunted in response. I sat on my butt, and jumped in - the door was about 3 feet from the basement floor. I turned my nose up, it smelled awful in here. I lit the candle and waved it around to get a look at my surroundings, and I could already tell I didn't like it here.
"Edward?" I said moving the candle to illuminate the far corner of the room. Nothing there.
"Edward?" I tried again, and this time I got a noise in response. I pointed the candle to the wall behind me, and spotted something huddled in the corner - It was Edward. I let out a small cry and slowly walked over to him.
"Edward, I-its Bella." I said, as the tears fogged up my vision. He let out a manly whine…never once did he sound like a kid. Wonder how old he is? I thought. With each step I took towards him, he'd jump- which broke my heart even more.
"Edward, I will not hurt you." I reassured him, but he still kept his head hidden from me. Once standing next him, I knelt down so I wouldn't seem bigger.
"Edward, you can trust me." I said bringing the candle down to my feet, which lit where Edward was more. He finally brought his head from his arms, showing me his face. I gasped at what I saw, causing his beautiful green eyes to widen, and him to wrap his arms back around him. I didn't mean to gasp, but he was beautiful…even under all the dried dirt and blood, I was mesmerized.
