Hey thank you all for your reviews I am sorry I have made you wait I have sooo many stories at the moment and not enough time but I am on holiday now from work so plenty of time.
Bella looked around she knew she was in Billy's back garden but everything was different Billy looked younger for a start and there was a little boy playing about near him.
Bella gasped when she realised that the small boy was Jake upon this realisation everything else clicked into place. She was dreaming and currently she was in one of her memories.
Just as she realised this young version of her self came around the corner clutching the hand of a very young Charlie Swan.
"Hey Billy how's it going" greeted Charlie as he walked up and patted the man on his shoulder. "Going good I guess can't complain" he shrugged Bella felt sorry for Billy as he sat in his chair looking up at his best friend.
"What can I do for you" he asked as he smiled at little Bella who hid away from him behind her dad's legs which just caused Billy to chuckle.
Charlie tried to pry her off his legs but she wouldn't budge grown up Bella chuckled she had a vague recollection of doing that. "I am on my way to Lana's I have to work and Renée has gone out shopping so she said she would look after him" he explained.
Billy chuckled "well I would offer to keep her but I know her and Jake don't get on well anymore not like when they were little making mud pies" Charlie laughed.
"Yeah I know" he looked at his watch "oh I best get going I'll come by after work and see you ok" Billy nodded in response and waved the off before going inside to find Jake.
Adult Bella followed child Bella and her father to Paul's as they got nearer Paul's mum came out to greet them. She smiled at them both and opened her arms to Bella who happily ran into them.
Adult Bella noticed the amount of make up Lana was wearing she some how knew something was up. Charlie left and both Bella's followed Lana inside she noticed Ed Lana's husband sat on one of the chairs drinking a beer and watching football.
Bella didn't like Ed she didn't like the way he would look at her and Paul when they played or the way he sometimes grabbed Lana. She made sure to stay clear of him at all times she knew Paul didn't like him either.
Bella left Lana and quickly ran to Paul's room adult Bella followed and smiled when it was the same room she now was sleeping in.
Little Bella and Paul played for hours in his room when all of a sudden a loud cry came from the kitchen both kids looked up at the closed door and then at each other with scared faces.
They slowly got up and made their way out of Paul's room and down the hallway towards the kitchen. They gripped each others hands tight as they made their way down the hallway.
As they walked closer they could hear someone crying they finally reached the kitchen and saw Lana sat on the floor crying a broken plate of food lay next to her.
"Mama?" said Paul as he slowly walked up to her with Bella and sat down. Lana looked up at him and tried to smile at her son whilst wiping her eyes "oh its nothing Paul go back and play I just dropped a plate" he looked uncertain.
"WOMAN!" came a shout from the living room Paul grabbed Bella and pulled her behind him as Ed came in. Lana quickly picked up the pieces of the plate and stood up.
Ed came in the room with an angry look on his face little Bella hid behind Paul as adult Bella looked on with confusion.
"What have you done?" he accused as he gripped Lana's arm roughly little Bella got a little courage and ran from around Paul and shouted at Ed to 'stop it'.
Ed turned on Bella and raised his hand towards her adult Bella gasped and closed her eyes waiting to hear the slap but instead she heard young Paul scream in anger.
She opened her eyes and saw Paul charge at Ed young Bella and Lana screamed at him to stop but Paul didn't listen he pushed Ed back though to be fair it wasn't very far.
Ed turned his anger on Paul and started beating him Lana tried to stop him but got pushed back into the counter little Bella was crying and screaming at Ed to stop it.
She quickly got a pan from the cupboard and without thinking hit Ed, Ed staggered back long enough for Bella to grab Lana and Paul and ran away.
Ed screamed after them but all three ignored them as they made their way to the beach. Adult Bella was in tears as she remembered the fear she felt that day.
Bella remembered many days like that she wondered why she never told her dad about this. Bella soon found herself back in Paul's house this time it was a few years later Bella and Paul who looked around 8 where sat on the couch Bella was holding Paul as he cried in her arms.
Adult Bella kneeled down confused "Paul?" she asked but remembered that no one could see or hear her.
"Paul what's happened" asked little Bella as Paul continued to cry, he eventually calmed down enough to lift his head of her lap.
"She's gone Bella she left me" he cried Bella looked confused "who Paul" "mama, mama has gone Ed left he said he didn't like living with both of us so she went after him and left me behind".
Both Bella's gasped in shock neither knew what to say little Bella just clung onto Paul harder as his cries increased.
Bella woke with a gasp she could feel the tears flowing down her face she quickly shot up out of bed and went back into the living room.
Paul wasn't on the couch anymore she ran to his room and burst in he was sat up in bed panting "Bella? Bella what's wrong" he asked as he raced out of bed.
She panted as she caught her breath she was momentarily stunned from the lack of clothes Paul was wearing. His bare chest and arms were in full view his voice broke her trance "Bella?" he called.
"I remembered what happened in this house Paul" she cried he didn't say anything just held her tight in his arms as she cried on his chest.
