Carlisle's POV

It was an accident I tried to convince myself. I didn't actually mean to go anywhere near her private areas. I simply miscalculated the distance.

I walked down the stairs and to the shower. I wasn't sure if I believed myself.

What did I almost do?

I could still feel the silk of her stomach under my fingertips. I stared at the shower without undressing to get in. I could hear her quiet gasp and wondered what would have happened if I let it go any further.

Could I really blame James for taking her, or for helping her forget the man that hurt her before?

I don't mean that.

I left the room and told Esme I was going for a jog. And I did.

Bella's POV

I opened my eyes slowly and stirred in the bed but went nowhere. I looked and saw that I was wrapped in the naked body of Emmett. My thoughts turned negative. There were only two people who let me sleep in their bed and that was Laurent and James. But mostly Laurent. Emmett's clock told me that it was 8 in the morning. He stirred and I slid out of his hold.

I snuck out of his room and ran up to my room. Tears pooled in my eyes and for a second I hated myself for letting that thought in.

Emmett's POV

I started waking up and heard my door open then close. I sat up and saw that Bella wasn't in my bed. I went to the bathroom to take care of myself and then put on boxers. After a few seconds I decided to go check on Bella.

Just like her, I snuck out of my room and up to hers. I didn't hear anything and cracked the door open. I saw her sitting on her bed with something blue tied around her left arm. In her right hand she had a needle and it was in her left arm. Her eyes were closed. Slowly the liquid emptied into her arm and she pulled the needle out. In the silence, the needle hitting the floor sounded like gunshots. The blue rubber tie was pulled loose and fell to her bed.

"What was that?" I finally asked.

"Emmett" Bella gasped slowly.

I turned to leave the room in disbelief. I went into my room and type in "I saw her injecting something into her arm". The first sight that popped up was a forum about heroin.

"No" I whispered.

I read through it and felt sick. She walked in and looked at me and then the screen.

"Kids come down for breakfast" Esme's voice called.

Bella was in a t-shirt and shorts again. She wore no bra and the t-shirt did nothing to hide that.

"You're doing drugs, heroin" I whispered.

"I can explain" She slurred.

She walked over to me and sat on my lap.

"This was the last time, I have nothing left of it. You can't tell anyone"

"I have to tell Carlisle" I said looking at the screen.

"Please" She cried. "I swear this was the last time!"

"I can't keep that a secret"

"Emmett, please" she begged, "you can't tell anyone. They don't need to know, this is the last time just like you said last night was our last time"

I looked down into her wide eyes. She looked so desperate and innocent that I just nodded agreeing to keep it our secret. We went to breakfast and she was silent as she ate. I wondered if I made the right choice by agreeing to silence. I had a feeling I didn't but it was too late.

Bella's POV

"Bella" A voice called yanking me out of sleep. "Bella it's time to get up for school"

I recognized Esme's voice. My clock told me that it was 6:25; the alarm would go off in five minutes.

"I'm up" I grumbled.

Before I knew it my alarm was screaming that it was time to get up. I let it scream, trying to ignore it, but after less than 30 seconds I was annoyed enough to get up and turn it off. With a glare I turned and walked to my shower. Esme told me that the kids were usually out of the house by 7:45 or 8. Class started at 8:30.

I followed Carlisle's orders and put on "covering clothes", in this case I wore dark blue skinny jeans, black thigh-high heels, a white t-shirt, and a dark blue short jean jacket. Next, I put my hair up in a white headband, letting it flow down to the middle of my back. Lastly I took a few minutes to put on eye-liner, mascara, and red lip gloss. I smiled at my refection; I looked younger than usual and very innocent in a sexy way. The clock said that it was 7:49.

My book bag was almost heavy as I grabbed it and headed down the stairs. Emmett was standing by the door when I made it there. He looked me up and down before saying good morning. I said it bad and then had to repeat it when Esme joined us. She called the kids and they all walked down. Esme drove Alice, Edward, Rosalie, and Jasper to school in her car. Carlisle took Emmett and me.

"Bella remember what I said, stay out of trouble" Carlisle said as I got out the car.

I went straight to the locker one of my papers said was mine. I pulled out my combination lock and emptied my bag into it. I grabbed a notebook and headed to my first period, freshman literature.

This chapter was pretty boring I my opinion. I think I'm going to speed this story up starting the next chapter. This chapter felt more like a filler. Review please
