Chapter 3: The Threat
'Something is wrong', said Alice, breaking me from my trance. 'What like how that teacher can actually go outside looking like that?' I don't understand it. 'Seriously Rose. It's Edward. We're going home at lunch.' What has he done now? I hated when one of us were a threat to exposing our family, I didn't want to know what he had done.
After class we all arrived in the car park and we were waiting for him. 'I swear, if he has done anything I will kill him.' I told them. 'Just relax Rosalie' said Alice, 'he hasn't done anything... Yet.' Just then, Edward rushed out of school and jumped straight into the car. We all got in after him and he began the drive home. 'I don't want to talk about it, so please don't ask', he said gripping the steering wheel rather tightly.
'You're leaving', Alice claimed, sounding upset, breaking the cold silence. 'I didn't know I was but now I have to Alice. What else do you expect me to do?'
I hated this. Although I don't get along with them most of the time, they were still my family. Whatever idiotic thing he or any of them did, I will try and help them. Well, as long as I agreed with what they were doing and it was for the best. 'Stay here, we can all help you through it.' I told him. Edward smiled at me through the mirror.
He began thinking again then Alice said 'Edward she is living with her father, don't do this to either of them.' Who was she talking about? We arrived at the bottom of our driveway when Alice said, 'we'll get out, you should tell Carlisle yourself.' He nodded and raced ahead. 'Ok spill Alice,' said Emmett 'we need to know to help him.'
Alice explained everything to us. I was thankful to him for not killing her, but he should have got out of that classroom, he was so close to snapping. 'I knew she would be trouble,' I said as we arrived at the house. 'I could deal with here' said Jasper. 'Jazz...' said Alice as she put her arm through his, 'that won't help either of you.' We all walked into the sitting room. Esme was holding Edward's hand and Carlisle was looking at him sympathetically.
'Jasper don't you dare even think about it' said Edward standing up. 'Don't any of you even consider it.' 'We're just trying to help Ed...' 'By killing her Emmett? I don't think so.' 'Edward, son,' said Carlisle trying to calm him, 'do what you need to. We will all support you no matter what you choose to do. Just consider what you would be doing to her family. Go away if you need to. Go to the Denali's for as long as you need.'
Later that night Edward left, not knowing how long he would be. Everyone was upset about it. We didn't want Edwards falling apart because of this weak human girl. We needed to do something to help him. I would do anything to protect my family. I will not let that girl come in and break us after all these years together. I will do everything in my power to stop her, not matter what it takes. I will even break my clean record to get rid of her. Jasper is right, he and Emmett could take care of her, I could help them. We need to do something before it is too late.
