Hey guys sorry I haven't written for a while. I had finals, four papers due, dances, work, and a whole lot of going on. I have no intention of quitting this story. So here's the next chapter and hope ya'll like it. OH and there is a surprise character in it for you! Now OOOOOONNNNNNNNN with the show!
So the full summary wouldn't fit; so here's the full one: Edward Cullen has been wandering the world for over a millennium, with his coven of vampires. Edward has a secret though-he's the creator of all vampires. He's cold, ruthless, and nobody can stop him. Until he stumbles upon a little human girl with brown hair and chocolate colored eyes. With one look into her eyes, she has him wrapped around her tiny finger, and he knows why-she is his mate.
Chapter Six: Five Years Later.
Five years. Five years have passed since my Bella has come into my existence. I decided to stay with the Cullen's longer than I originally thought I would. It benefited my Bella. I knew I could protect her on my own; but other vampires wouldn't know that. They wouldn't know that I was the creator of vampires…I wanted it kept that way. It kept hidden that the creator of vampires had a mate. A mate meant weakness, and weakness would not be tolerated. I would keep her hidden for four more years until I change.
Renee Higgonbottom was a problem. She hadn't felt my wrath yet. I was meticulously planning my revenge on her. I wanted her to know exactly who was hurting her. Me. I wanted her to know why. For my Bella. I wasn't a patient vampire by nature, but this was different. I was haunting Renee.
I had looked into Renee's past as soon as my Bella told me what I now refer to as the Water Incident. Renee had a lot of things on her criminal record. But it all started a few years before I met my angel. Drug and alcohol abuse, stealing, public disturbance, assault, and a list of other things. What surprised me was that Renee had seen a psychiatrist before hand. I found that record too. Renee was seeing the doctor for a bad divorce between her and her husband Charles Swan.
Charles Swan was Bella's father. He lived in Port Angeles now. He looked for my angel in Arizona because Renee told him she was going to live with her mother. Renee lied. She was living in Seattle with a boyfriend and her daughter. Charles was devastated when he couldn't find his daughter. Though it's been twelve years Charles had not given up hope completely, though it has greatly diminished. I was debating letting Bella see him. She called Carlisle dad, and Esme Mom, now. Her human memories of Renee had faded but the emotion still lived on in her. She was still scared of water.
My Bella had changed over the five years she had been here. Her hair was now curly and shiny, down to her knees. She grew taller, and her eyes sparkled. She became her own person. She didn't like shopping, she was clumsy, and I was forever spending my days catching her. She cooked amazingly; well it looked amazing, though I couldn't really enjoy the taste because I was a vampire.
She was a bit of a clean freak, and had an addiction to books. Classics really, I was thrilled. She loved listening to the Piano, and I played for her often. She was fluent in Spanish, and stumbled over a few words in Italian. We had added German to her foreign languages. She loved English; she was advanced in that, but loathed math and science. Emmett loved teaching her P.E. because she was so clumsy. After he admitted that in his head I wanted to rip his head off. I didn't want to upset Bella. She had found a place for each of the Cullens in her heart. I wasn't going to break her heart by hurting Emmett. As much as he deserved it.
Jasper's control, after our talk, was impeccable. He kept his distance, but he still adored Bella. I had yet to find a person who didn't love her. Granted she wasn't around people much, we kept her inside to often. Away from people in case someone looked for her. Sure we let her out, just in not crowded places, in places like the remote outdoors most often. It didn't work to well because my angel was clumsy, but I loved catching her.
Rosalie, I thought wouldn't be that much of a problem. I was wrong. Rosalie constantly was annoying me that Bella should be out in society, among people. That she would grow up anti-social. Rosalie was wrong. Sure Bella didn't talk to people, but she was friendly. I ignored Rosalie a lot.
Alice was still my favorite Cullen. She became Bella's second best friend. I was her first. I would always be her first. However, I was not good with girly things, Alice was. Alice talked with my Bella "privately". I heard every word. I knew when Alice gave Bella "the talk" when Bella got her period. I knew when my Bella got a crush on me. I was smug for days after that conversation.
Currently my angel was sitting in the study reading Wuthering Heights for the fifteenth time. She had come across the book last month and fell in love with it. The book was getting worn and still Bella refused to let it leaver her room without her. I found it endearing.
I walked into the study and smiled. Bella was sitting on the couch, a blue blanket covering her, curled into a little ball, reading the book. "Bella, I have to go to the grocery store. Would you like to go along?"
Bella smiled at me and agreed. I knew she would go. She would always go, with me at least. I still wouldn't let Bella eat sweets. Sweets led to cavities, and stomach problems. I refused to let Bella get cavities and stomach problems over something so trivial, if at all.
Forks grocery store was small, yet fairly stocked with "good" food for Bella. Bella didn't like vegetables, but absolutely loved fruit. There was always fresh fruit in the house. Generally apples and grapes because they were Bella's favorite.
I was surprised, but not really interested when I saw a new man in the grocery store. I hadn't thought anyone was coming to town. It was rare when someone does. This man had a mop of brown, curly hair, and the cashier called him Charlie. This was Bella's father. I listened in to hear what he was thinking.
Why did I come back here? At least I'm not in the same house anymore. How could Renee take my baby girl away from me? How could Renee just lose our baby girl? My baby Bella. I guess Bella isn't a so much of a baby anymore. Twelve years. Twelve years since I've seen my baby girl. I miss her. I hope that vile man that took her is at least keeping her safe. Who would just take a child?
I almost laughed out loud. Many people would just take a child. I however, was not a person, and I was keeping my Bella safe. The idea that the person who created Bella was hurting hurt me to some extent. If not for this man and his failed marriage I would not have my angel. I knew I would have to tell him where Bella was. (Authors Note: I ALMOST stopped here)
"Bella, my darling, why don't you go get some fresh fruit? You know where it is. I rested my hand on Bella's shoulder. I saw the man wince at Bella's name. I dove back into his mind. Must be new people in this town. Have a little girl named Bella, that's gonna be hard though. Damn, Renee, how could you take my daughter? If it weren't for Billy I never would have come back.
"Excuse me, sir, but I've never seen you in town before. Are you new here?" I asked.
"Am I knew here? No. But you are." At least the kids polite. Charles thought. I wanted to grimace at his use of kid.
"Guess you could call it that. The names Charles Swan, but everyone calls me Charlie. I used to be the Chief of Police of this little town, 'til I moved anyways. Are you new?"
"No, I've been here with my…family for roughly five years. I'm Edward…Cullen," I didn't hold my hand out for him to shake.
"Whose your family?"
"Dr. Carlisle Cullen, Esme Cullen, Rosalie Cullen, Emmett Cullen, Alice Cullen, Jasper Cullen, and Isabella Cullen," I lied. I was still inside his head. Isabella, huh, I wonder how old she is. My Bella would be twelve last September. I wonder if she's ever celebrated a birthday. Lord knows Renee would have forgotten.
"Edward, I have the fruit," my angel came back holding a bag of apples in one and hand and a bag of bananas in the other.
"Thank you, Bella. This is Mr. Swan. He was the Chief of Police," I rested my hand on top of Bella's head.
She looked into his eyes, "Hello, I'm Isabella. Everyone calls me Bella though." Charles thoughts weren't that articulate b…b…b…brown eyes. B…b…b…rown hair. B…b…b…ella?
"Wha…h….huh?" Real articulate Mr. Swan, I thought sarcastically.
"Mr. Swan if you'll accompany Isabella and I to out home, I'll be sure to answer all of your questions."
"What questions? Edward?" My Bella asked.
"Bella, did you buy the fruit?"
"Yes, Edward." Ahhh my little angel.
"This way please. There is my car." I pointed to the silver Volvo I'd taken a liking to, "You can follow us."
Review please! How did you like me putting Charlie in there?
