Picture of characters on profile. Thanks to Hurt for their amazing song Abuse Of SID.
With your naked excuse you confuse your misuse
What makes you think I should care what he'll do?
If you lay on the ground 'til he tells you he's through
And he makes up your mind that that's what you should do
'cause all the while you've been using you
Yes, all the while you're abusing you.
Abuse Of SID
Edward's Point Of View
It has been three days since we found her unconscious on the on the ground at our home. I never left the hospital. I spent every moment by her side, wanting to be there when she woke up. She has three broken ribs and is covered in bruises. Carslile said it looked like a classic case of abuse the first day she came in and Ruben walked up to him and whisper-yelled in his ear with a threatening tone, "You have no idea what your talking about. I mean," he let out a small laugh, "you still think she is human."
It took me the rest of that day to process what he said. I went threw everything in my mind trying to guess what she could be. I noticed that she looked more supernatural. By that I meant she look more like us, minus the pale part. Her skin had a new layer of tan, her breast were larger, and she looked more beautiful, and that wasn't humanly possible. But, then again, she's not human.
I continued my staring at the angel in the hospital bed. I finally drank in how she looked. She was wearing an olive green shit that was missing a sleeve and dark jeans. On her hands were what looked like fish net wrist warmers. (Picture on profile) Ruben yelled at one of nurses when she tired to take it off.
My curiosity overwhelmed me so I walked over to the side of the bed and took them off. I gasped.
On Bella's wrist there were scares. And not just the scares from James. The lines were perfectly straight. Obviously done with a knife. Obviously done with intension of hurting herself.
Why would she do this?
She started to wake as she rolled to her side – away from me.
"Bella..." I whispered. She turned over to look at me.
"What?" She whispered back to me.
I lifted her arm up and showed her her wrist. "Why?" I asked in a soft whisper.
She quickly withdrew her wrist, "I would tell you, but then again it is none of your business."
"None of my business?" I yelled at her, "You are my business," I whispered harshly to her.
"Then why did you leave?" she asked. "Was I not good enough for you? I mean, did you ever love me? Or do you like messing with poor, defenseless human girls? Or was it just me? Was I just -" I interrupted her by kissing her.
"Don't ever doubt if I loved. Don't ever doubt that I still love you," I whispered sharply.
"You still love me?" Bella questioned.
"And always will," I said looking at her for a reaction.
She wrapped her arms around my neck and pulled herself up so her lips could meet mine. I couldn't stop. When she needed th breath I attacked her neck. I whispered "I love you," every time my lips were off her skin.
I had to stop myself.
No! She is in trouble! Don't reward her!
"Stop," I whispered. She lips found their way to my neck. "Bella, stop," I said as I shoved her down on to the bed.
Her ribs you idiot!
"Oh! Bella I'm sorry!" Then something hit me. "Wait, your not screaming."
"My kind heals quickly."
"And what exactly are you?" I asked.
Right then Ruben, Byran, Jamie, Amy, Nick, and Carslile walked in.
Jamie had long blond, wavy hair and Blue eyes. Amy had white hair and was almost as pale as me. Nick was fourteen years old with messy blond hair. Byran looked like he spends all his spare time in the gym. He had dark brown hair. He was also pale. Definably a vampire. I could only read his thoughts.
And he knew it.
When I get my hands on you... He said through his mind. Knowing Bella, in a weeks time I'll have her permission to kick you ass. Not that not having her permission would stop me...
"What, now you are trying to seduce my little sister into telling you what she is," he asked while walking towards me. He shoved me.
"What the hell is going on here?" Emmett barged in with Alice and Rose following behind him.
"What the hell are you all doing here?" Bella yelled.
"What," Byran asked, "I'm not aloud to see my baby sis?"
"Of course you are," she said, "But shoving Eddie here isn't going to fly by in my book."
"Fine," he huffed.
Next time I shove you she won't be around. Maybe I'll just punch your face. What do you think of that, pretty boy?
Bella looked around the room and her eyes landed on Ruben.
"Should I tell them?" Bella asked.
"I would," he replied.
"No!" Nick screamed, "They left her, Ruben!"
"I had a long talk with Carslile, and they still think of her as family. And you know she still loves them. Therefore, what is stopping her?"
"The fact that the left!" Amy screamed.
"We did it for her own good!" Emmett yelled back.
"Everyone SHUT UP!" Bella scream and suddenly there wasn't enough air for everyone to talk. Everyone except Bella. "Now, you guys, I understand that you don't want me to tell them, but it is my story to tell, not yours.
"And you," she pointed to Emmett, Rose, Carslile and Alice, "Didn't even say goodbye. So, Carslile, give me one good reason to tell you." And Carslile suddenly had enough air to talk.
"We thought it would be best if we didn't say goodbye. For your sake."
She took and deep breath, "Now, I'm going to let you all talk now. But, if you start yelling again you will loose your chance to talk for any time you are in here. Is that understood?" Everyone nodded their heads – including me.
She took another deep breath, "It all started two weeks after you guys left," she started – staring at her lap, "Charlie told me to get out of the house or he was going to ship me off to Jacksonville. I went to go shopping with Jessica. On the way back to our cars I saw someone who I thought I recognized from when Edward saved from them the lat time I was in the city. I started to walk towards them and I saw a hallucination of Edward telling me to go back. I realized then that doing something stupid or reckless would help me see Edward.
"It wasn't who I thought it was, but I got on the back of his bike anyway. I yelled to Jess to go home after he said he would take me home. That's how he figured out where I live.
"Every night Charlie wasn't home after that, for four weeks, he would rape me. Charlie was on fishing trips almost every weekend and almost every night he was at work late.
"One day when I was fighting back he slammed my head against the back of the bed. The next thing I know I'm in a hospital six days later. I learned that one day on their way to visit me Charlie, Phil, and Renee were in a car accident-"
"You wouldn't have been in a coma in the first place if Dr. Cullen was here." Nick pointed out.
"Nick -"
"No Bella. They have a right to know," Bryan said. He turned to Carslile, "They said that if you were there she wouldn't have been in a coma, that Phil and Charlie wouldn't be unconscious right now, and her mother wouldn't be dead."
Carslile eyes went wide. Oh my... Carslile thought. He started to feel guilt kick in, "I don't blame you Carslile..." Bella said.
"I do," Bryan stated.
"Listen you little," Rose said in a threatening tone while walking up to him, "Wait until I get my hands around you." Then suddenly she was on the ground. She started screaming in pain. I looked up to Bella who was staring down at her with intensity. Emmett went to help her but Bryan held him back.
"Rose!" He screamed.
There was a knock on the door. "Is everything alright in there?" one of the nurses asked.
"Yeah, we are fine – just testing her ribs," Ruben said so she could hear him through the door. "Bella," he started, "stop."
"Not until she apologizes," Bella said with a small smile on her face. "Come Rose-y say your sorry."
"I'm sorry!" Rose exclaimed. Then suddenly she wasn't in pain.
"Next time I won't be as nice," Bella warned.
"That was nice?" Rose asked, "What could be worse then that?"
"Watching Emmett scream in agony while you know it is all your fault," Bella said simply. "Now, where were we?" Bella asked, turning to me.
"You were telling us about Charlie, Phil, and Renee," I answered her – still in shock of what she did.
"Right. So, for another week, everyday, he would come into my house. On one day there was a knock on the door. I screamed for help. Then John, Mikes older brother, knocked down the door and came up to help me. He ripped him off me and started beating him. He would've killed him if I didn't step in.
"We went out on a few dates, and then things like happened the night you found me the other day happened."
"What happened then Bella?"
B POV
There was knock on Ruben's door. I spend most of at Ruben's house. I opened the door to see John standing there. We just broke up last week. We were in an off and on relationship since the relationship started.
"John, what are you doing here?" I asked. He shoved me into the house.
"YOU'RE DOING THE CULLEN BOY! YOU LITTLE SLUT!"
"What? No I'm not," and he shoved me up against the wall.
"Stop lying to me, Isabella," he hissed at me and smacked me across the face.
He went to sit down in the dinning room. "Get me something to eat!"
I took that as my chance to run. My kind runs fast, as fast as vampires. But, then again, he was my kind.
"I'm going to find you Isabella." I ran between the trees. I pushed my legs as fast as they would go – shoving branches out of my way. Hopefully I can still find my way there.
The heals of my high heals broke off as I ran faster and faster towards my destination. I could hear him coming closer from behind me. I could hear his footsteps closing up behind me.
It felt like I was flying. My legs started to hurt.
I pushed my feet harder as it came into view.
The Cullen's house.
Oh Lord, please let them be home. I silently begged.
I pushed the door open and slammed it behind me.
No one was home.
I ran up the stairs to Edward's room. When I was close to the door he was there.
"You bitch. I told you to get me something to eat!" He grabbed my hair and threw me down onto the floor. "Stupid crack whore." And he was right. I am a crack whore. He started to walk away from me mumbling of how many ways he could kill me. I took it as my chance to get up.
He heard me and started walking over to me. I shoved him into Edward's wall of Cd's. I dashed out of his room and started running down the stairs.
"GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE NOW!"
I ran as fast as I as I could to the stairs but only made it to Carslile's and Esme's room. He grabbed me.
"Remember the last time we were like this?" I let out a small sob at the memory.
"What memory?" Alice asked.
"One night he rapped me. Three weeks later I was late and I found out I was pregnant. When I told him he was so happy. The day after I told him I burnt our dinner and he got angry. He chased me around Charlie's house until I was right on the edge of the stairs on the second story. He punched my stomach and then shoved me down the stairs. I lost the baby." I said looking her in the eye the whole time. A tiny cry escaped my lips.
Edward crawled up on the bed and held me. "Anyway, back to the story -"
"Please stop," I begged.
"SHUT UP!" and he threw down on to the ground. He started trying to punch my face but I put my arms in the way. I through my knee up and it hit him right where I'd hope it would. I got up and tried to run but he grabbed my ankle. I pushed my foot back to hit his face and I hit him right in the nose.
I ran down to the stairs and right when I made it there I felt two hands shove me.
"And that's the last thing I remember," I said.
Anyone want to try and guess what Bella is?
