(A/N: I own nothing and read last chapter)
"You're home early dad." Bella said walking down the stairs to talk to her dad while Irina seemed to realize something and blurred into the living room then back into Bella's room before coming back without the humans realizing it. Bella felt the slight breeze and her gaze instantly shot to her ancestor, however Charlie just shivered and closed the window behind Bella while Sue narrowed her eyes at all the vampires in the room.
"Heard something interesting from Billy. I didn't know you had friends over." Charlie said narrowing his eyes at his daughter and glancing at the assembled vampires suspiciously.
"I'm sorry we came in without your permission sir but my brother in law here is a hiker and one of my sisters, his wife, loves nature so when they ran into Bella who had gotten lost while hiking in the woods yesterday they bought her to our home outside the town because they didn't know where she lived. She had passed out from exhaustion shortly after they found her you see. My cousin, Carmen, thought it would be a good idea to try and call someone on her cellphone to ask why she was in the woods and where her parents were so that we could make sure she got home safely. However this young lady here had called Bella's cellphone before we could attempt to call anyone on it, and had asked where we were so that she could see that her sister was alright for herself. She and the young man, Seth, were quite worried about her." Tanya spoke up stepping forward, standing slightly in front of Leah almost protectively, as she drew the two adults attention making Sue narrow her eyes more.
"They had insisted that they could take her home by herself and they'd be alright but upon hearing that you were out fishing for what we were told was the whole weekend and that her mother was in a different state my sister's motherly side came to the forefront and she insisted that she and her husband keep watch just in case Bella's excursion into the woods had landed her with a cold or something and no adult aside from her sister was there to help. Irina here is quite the mother hen, she even tries to mother Kate and I despite her being the youngest amongst us." Tanya said smiling teasingly at her sister who scowled and looked away as if embarrassed.
"The rest of us got here not too long ago to come check up on them and for one of us to take over for Irina and Laurent so that they could go home and get a shower and some sleep. I fear that they're protective side kept them up all night fretting over the three teens." Tanya said grinning at her brother in law and sister who looked a bit sheepish but said nothing.
"Good thing we did as well. Bella here had gone to the store for a few minutes because she saw that the house was running low on groceries. Irina and Laurent wanted to go with her, their worry wart and protective sides going full force, but got there a few minutes after she did due to not being familiar with the town. Irina why don't you take over from here?" Tanya asked frowning as she looked at her sister who scowled but nodded.
"When Laurent and I got to the store I stepped inside just as a tall rather muscular young man that Bella called Jacob grabbed Bella's arm after she told him to leave her alone and went to grab the groceries. I, and everyone else in the store at the time, could hear her bone break where he grabbed her. Then she tried to carry the groceries but Laurent and I wouldn't let her. He took the groceries out to our car while I began to lead Bella to her truck to bring her back here. Tanya is a very qualified doctor even though she doesn't look it, it's only because she didn't have her qualifications sent to the nearby hospital that she isn't working there. And I trust my sister to make sure Bella is okay and safe. The young man, Jacob, tried to stop us from leaving but when he began to insult me Bella punched him in the jaw with the hand on her broken arm. When he tried to stop us the second time by grabbing me, I hit him in the jaw as well before bringing Bella here as I knew my sister was still here with the rest of our family and Bella's two siblings." Irina said causing Sue to scowl while Charlie frowned heavily as he glared at the woman who stood beside Bella, an arm wrapped around Bella's shoulders supportively while Kate stood a little ways to the front of Bella protectively.
"Without an X-Ray it's hard to tell exactly but it seemed to be a clean break when I examined it. No bone was sticking out of the skin, and when I gently prodded it I only felt two pieces that were broken apart. She'll only need about three months or so in a cast. She also sprained her wrist a little bit when she punched the boy but it wasn't very badly so she won't need a cast or brace for it. She just needs to not use it too much for a while." Tanya said slipping back into the conversation easily with her diagnosis of Bella's arm.
"So that's why Billy called me and said that Jacob was talking about you and a gold eyed woman that looked like the Cullens attacked him." Charlie said, not asked, and caused Bella to flinch a bit at the mention of the Cullens while Leah and Seth growled slightly.
"Yes I'm afraid so, you see Rosalie and Jasper are our cousins on their mothers side so we visit them at times. We had no clue that they had moved away or that Bella knew them until Leah mentioned that our eyes were the same as 'that bastard families' in her words…after hearing what they did to Bella I can't say I'm happy with them at the moment." Tanya said growling almost audibly as she thought about what her so called 'cousins' did.
"I don't trust them and I don't want them around our kids." Sue said to Charlie point blank as she glared at the vampires, causing Irina to nearly hiss.
"Last I checked, you aren't my mother. And I, and Leah, are both legal adults. If we want to hang out with them then I don't see why we shouldn't. We'd both keep Seth safe if he wanted to hang out with them too." Bella said glaring at Sue who looked surprised at being back talked.
"Yeah I doubt I'm just gonna stop hanging with them cause you don't like them. I'm a grown woman mom, and I can more than take care of myself." Leah said crossing her arms over her chest as she leant into Tanya a bit when the Native American teen stepped forward to stand beside the blond leader.
"They're pretty awesome mom, and they want to rip into the family of jack…behinds…as much as me and Lee do." Seth said shrugging his shoulders with an apologetic grin, quickly censoring himself at a scolding look from Irina.
"If you're going to stand with them over me then don't bother coming back to my home." Sue said glaring darkly at Leah and Seth who both looked at each other and shrugged.
"No problem. I got an apartment in Fort Angeles and Seth is always welcome to stay with me, Bells to if Charlie's about to kick her out. That house hasn't been a home since dad died." Leah said not bothered at all by this and causing Sue to look shocked. Obviously she had expected her kids to back down at the threat.
"Just let us pack and we'll be gone." Seth said shrugging his shoulders although he was a bit sad at this. His mother was making him chose…too bad that she's been so obviously favoring Seth over his oldest sister, who he loved, and hated Bella, who he adored, that the choice was rather easy.
"Before you decide to kick me out or not I think there's something you should know dad." Bella said staring at her father sadly while Victoria moved up from the back of the group to stand on Bella's other side, watching the two humans warily.
"And what's that?" Charlie asked staring at his only daughter who took a deep breath as everyone looked at her.
"I…I was raped dad…and I'm pregnant because of it." Bella admitted after a moment of gathering her nerve, looking down at the floor away from everyone. Irina cooed soothingly and reassuringly to the auburn haired teen as she pulled the girl closer to offer comfort.
"Edward?" Charlie asked glaring darkly.
"No, someone else. He was a…well a nomad basically that was passing through…" Bella said swallowing thickly.
"Abort it." Charlie ordered causing the female vampires in the room to hiss almost audibly while the males scowled. Seth and Leah were looking at him shocked and angry.
"I…I can't…it's not the baby's fault." Bella said putting her hands on her stomach that, now that they were looking for it, had a tiny baby bump on it. Just enough to be noticeable to a human who was looking for it.
"Either abort it or leave. I won't have my daughter having a child out of wedlock and as young as you are." Charlie said making Bella choke back a sob and nod slightly. Everyone stared at her worried and curious which option she'll choose, the father she doesn't know that well or the unborn baby that was given to her by force and against her will.
"I'll go pack my bags then." Bella said softly, reaching one hand up to wipe her eyes as she made her way to the stairs.
"Kate, Irina. You two and Laurent go help her. Then we'll head down to Leah and Seth's house to get their things." Tanya ordered her sisters causing both to nod as they and the French Vampire walked towards the stairs.
"That's a good idea. Between how hard this day has been on her already, her broken arm, sprained wrist, and pregnancy she doesn't need any more strain on her at the moment." Irina said causing Kate to shoot a black eyed glare at the two human adults in the living room before she darted up the stairs at a barely human pace.
"Let's make one thing clear. I know what she's going through, more than most anyone else would right now. My middle sister, Kate, has made it clear that she'll help Bella and even raise the kid as if it were her own if Bella needed her too, and my youngest sister, Irina, has all but adopted Bella, Leah and Seth. You will find that if you ever try to hurt her in any way that you'll have three pissed off full grown blond women that know how to kick your ass in some very creative and painful ways on your hands. That's not even counting Laurent who seems to have adopted Bella as his baby sister, which means Seth and Leah are his siblings too, or Carmen, Eleazer, and Victoria here." Tanya growled audibly at the two stupid small town minded humans in front of her who paled under her deathly dark eyed gaze and the hateful looks they were receiving from most of the room. Seth and Leah just refused to look at them, going upstairs to help Bella and not saying anything about the words that Victoria said next.
"I couldn't protect Bella from those bastards, Eddie and James. But I'll be damned if I can't protect her from anyone else, including you two!"
