Sloth- Prisoner

"I swear Bella, I don't understand how could you be so hideous when you apply yourself!" Alice told her.

"Come on Alice, leave me be, please!" the girl begged her, in vain.

"It's about days that you roam through the house without doing anything, Bella! I propose you to go out and you can't help but telling me 'I don't feel like'; 'Go with Rosalie'... try to react, good heavens!" Bella snorted, flopping down on the couch.

"I'm not free to do what I want, Alice. I always have to stay with someone, avoid certain places, certain people" she played the word up, hoping it was a clear hint to Jake "And so I choose to do nothing. Or is it dangerous too?" she said ironical and contentious. Alice sighed.

"So you want to stay on that couch until Edward won't kill James?" the girl nodded.

"Is exactly my program" she said. Right then Edward, who heard the conversation inside his sister's head, came into the room. He gestured Alice to leave, to leave him alone with the girl.

Good. See if you can make her reason, cause I'm no longer standing her like that! she thought as she moved away gracefully. Meanwhile the vampire sat on the couch, next to Bella.

"Can you explain to me what's the problem?" he asked, sweetly.

"Yes, like you didn't eavesdrop" she muttered. He smiled.

"Do you think that if you act like this I'll let you free to go out? To do whatever you want?" he joked her.

"To give James a chance to kill me? Let's say it Edward, if you think it" she answered, bitterly. Tha vampire's face petrified.

"He won't touch you, Bella. Not until we're protecting you. So, please, try to do something, to move! I can't see you like this!" he begged her, but she just shook her shoulder.

"Not my fault. I just don't want to do a thing" Edward sighed for the girl's stubbornness, and convinced himself to propose her something he was thinking about.

"What if Jacob wants to come and see you?" he asked, slowly. He hope that the guy, hyperactive like he was, could at least do something. But she didn't let him tempt her.

"Whatever" she answered, laconic.
