Declaimer: I don't own Twilight!

Chapter 25 Blood

Bella's POV

A few weeks had past since we started going back to school. During school hours it was boring, and frustrating having to go to the same classes everyday with the same gossip students. But back at home wasn't all that great, either. There was a tense atmosphere in the house and with 12 vampires and fairies living all under the same roof, it was taking a toll on all of us. The guys went hunting almost every single day after school not coming back till nightfall. Carlisle has been working extra hours to try to get his mind off of stuff and Esme volunteered to go and help at the hospital also. Gale would go out for multiple hours without even the slightest of warnings, not even saying were he was going. Alice continues to be in her "coma" only stressing us even more. Rosalie has been acting even more of a bitch (which I didn't even think was possible), and I had gotten myself into a few fights with her. Nina and Peter were trying to keep everyone from killing each other but even they were having a hard time keeping a smile on their faces. Jacinda doesn't come out of her room, when she needs to eat and does come out of that room she doesn't say anything or look at anyone. I still haven't talked to her and honestly; I've been dreading for that moment, but sadly I couldn't hide away forever.

I knocked on the door 3 times, shifting my weight from my left foot to my right nervously. I waited for a few minutes and still nothing. I tried to listen through the door but I couldn't hear anything.

Maybe she's sleeping or to go some place. I can come back another time. The side of me that wanted to leave said.

Where else could Jacinda be? Open the door! What are you scared of? My braver side won and before I could change my mind I opened the door.

The first thing I noticed was the heat. It was a dry thick heat like the type you would find in the desert. The room was a mess; with clothes scattered everywhere, the bed unmade. But what almost made me take a step back were at the almost black walls. Every wall had black ugly burns on them. These types of burns are caused by fire. I thought to myself astonished. Jacinda had to have done this herself.

I looked back at the bed and saw Jacinda sleeping silently. I slowly walk up to her, holding my breath and shook her gently.

"Jacinda? Jacinda, wakeup it's Bella." her eyes flickered open; she looked around the room before focusing them on me. At first I thought she was going to smile but suddenly her bright green eyes turned cold and hard. She sat up abruptly and scooted away from me a tad bit.

"What are you doing her?" she asked rubbing her eyes from sleep.

"I need to talk to you." I said not wanting to beat around the bush.

"Okay." She said looking out the window. "Talk."

I took a deep breath looking at my hands. "I'm so sorry I never told you anything about the… rape. I just wasn't-"

She turned her head sharply and glared at me. Her eyes looking more red then green. I really didn't want to hurt Jacinda, her and me have never fought and I wasn't planning on doing that now.

"It's to late to say sorry Bella. I'm your best friend and I told you everything, I trusted you, I looked up to you but all you did was hurt me."

"If you would just listen to me-" I didn't have time to finish because Jacinda threw me against the wall. My head made contact with the mirror as my body slammed into it falling to the ground with pieces of glass falling with me as if it were raining. I sat there my head pounding, I looked at my arms to see them bleeding. I could barely feel my fingertips. Jacinda grabbed my upper arms and hauled me up.

"No. I'm done listening to you; all you say is a bunch of lies. That stupid vampire Edward brainwashed you and all you care about is them and not us anymore." Her hands around my arms tightened but that wasn't what had me worried. The temperatures of her hands were becoming hotter and hotter. At that moment I had three options. One, I could scream but who could possibly hear me? No one was in the house. Two, I could start to fight back and gain control of the situation or I could sit here and die between her fingertips. Would Jacinda really do that to me?

"So why are you here worrying about me, or did Gale send you here?" She spun me around and threw me against the opposite wall, my head hit the side of the bed and I used both arms to try to sit up before Jacinda could come at me again.

"Jacinda I…I…" But nothing was making sense anymore. I had to try my hardest just to stay conscious.

She walked towards me with her hands flaming red, she grabbed my ankle roughly and I winced at the pain of both the fire against my skin and how roughly her fingers curled around my ankle. She once again hurled me at the open door and I landed on my face against the soft carpet of the hall.

"Just go back to fucking Edward in his room, because that's the only thing you're good at these days." She slammed the door shut.

I was left speechless staring at the white door thinking of what just happened. I got up painfully and ran as fast as I could upstairs to Edward's room. Edward wasn't home so why would I go to his room? I didn't know, I just ran ignoring the pain.

I opened his room and fell on the floor gasping for breath. Once my pounding heart slowed to its regular speed I crawled until I made it to the bed and as carefully as I could I lifted myself up.

I examined my injuries. My nose was bleeding and I could feel multiple bumps forming around my head. My forehead was also bleeding and could feel pieces of glass stuck all over my skin. My arms were a bleeding mess and I had severe burns on my shoulders, back and ankle. Fortunately I don't think I broke anything but I won't be able to walk on my ankle for a while.

I started to see black spots in my vision and the room was spinning wildly but before I could go unconscious I used every bit of my power to stop the burns before they could do more damage. I took my left hand and rested in on my tender shoulder. I winced as I lowered the temperature of my hand and used my hand as an ice pack. I did the same with my ankle with my other arm. Once my body was numb with cold I laid down on Edward's bed and breathed in his scent as I slowly cried myself to unconscious.

"Bella! Wake up, Bella!" I heard a familiar voice call out franticly. I groaned as I felt my muscles scream in pain.

"Don't worry Bella I'm going to call Carlisle and everything will be okay." My eyes flew open to look at Edward pulling out a shiny phone from his back pocket.

"No!" I said trying to reach for the phone.

"Oh my god Bella! What happened to you?" Edward demanded.

"I'll tell you if you put the phone away." He hesitated but did what I asked. He then picked me up so gently and cradled me to his chest.

"Please tell me what happened." He said more quietly. And I did just that.

I told him about my nightmares and how Jacinda heard me and she found out and she got pissed at me and then she let her anger out on me. I didn't tell him the insults she told me, I could already tell how angry he was.

I knew the first thing that would come out of his mouth. "What rape?" he said between clenched teeth, trying to keep his anger from me.

"Jacob rapped me 8 years ago while we were dating at some party." I breathed out quickly. I have never told anybody this but I knew I could trust him.

Edward went ridged and his hands tightened up into tight fists.

"I'm going to kill him the next time I get my hands on him." he growled.

I lifted my hand to his cheek and he looked down at me again.

"Please don't. He's not worth it."

"But Bella-"

I cut him off shaking my head. "Please?"

He sighed loudly but nodded. "Don't listen to Jacinda, she's only upset but she'll come around. I'm never going to leave you unprotected." He promised me. I smiled and he gently touched my forehead with his fingers but then he pulled back and examined them.

"Bella what is this?" he said rubbing the thick clear shiny substance between his fingers.

"Umm, that's fairy blood. It's not red like human's blood and its not made up of the same stuff as human's blood. That's why vampires don't really appeal to it, even though it's much sweeter tasting then human blood, that's also why if a vampire drinks the blood of a fairy it will become indestructible."

"I actually still have a few questions about that." He said still not taking his eyes off my blood.

"Okay ask away." I said laughing.

He looked down at me and narrowed his eyes slightly. "But first we have to clean you up. You must be in a lot of pain." The tightness from his eyes came back while he looked at me.

"Please don't be mad at Jacinda." I wasn't just telling this to Edward, I was also trying to tell myself.

"I'm not as mad with her as I am to myself." I raised one of my eyebrows in confusion.

"I've been so worried about the Volturi and the leaders and trying to come up with a plan with Carlisle, Jasper, Emmett, Gale and Peter that I haven't spent much time with you or kept you save and happy. I'm sorry for that." He bowed his head down not looking at me anymore.

"You don't have to watch over me so much, I can take care of myself. And it's not your fault, don't let me distract you with what you have to do." I smiled at him when he looked back at me.

After Edward had taken all the little pieces of glass out of my head and arms, he cleaned out my wounds and I helped him clean the blood off the floor and bed. While I took a shower Edward had went to my room downstairs to get me a change of clothes. Once I got out my body was almost done healing and my ankle was just a little sore. It's a good thing fairies heal faster then humans but slower then werewolves. I cuddled up next to Edward and he put both arms around me.

"Now since you're back to normal, can you answer my questions?"

"Yes." I said keeping from laughing at his curiosity.

"What exactly happens if a vampire drinks the blood of a fairy?"

"It becomes impossible to kill him or her. Whatever type of fairy they drink from they also gain their powers. Like if you were to drink my blood, you would be able to control water and the cold."

He pondered this for a minute before moving on.

"What happens to you if a vampire drinks your blood?"

"Nothing." I said shrugging my shoulders. "Unless you take to much blood then the fairy dies."

"How does a fairy die? I mean not like how you can kill one but do they bury the fairy? Burn it?"

"No, if a fairy dies it becomes its element. If I die I become part of water, ice, snow, everything. If Nina were to die she would become part of the wind."

"That's very interesting."

I turned in his arms so I was on top of him. Edward brought his head up till his lips met mine. It was a slow sweet kiss but quickly turned heated and passionate. All of our stress, frustration, and love was poured into this kiss. Edward flipped us over so he was now on top of me. One of his hands was in my hair while the other was on my thigh. I had both arms around his neck and was playing with his hair. I opened my mouth and he plunged his tongue, exploring. I moaned quietly in his mouth while our tongues played war. I let my hands fall across his chest and under his shirt. He let go of my mouth, letting me breath and growled in my ear. He kissed his way down till he reached my neck; he let both hands fall to my waist pulling me closer to him.

"Huh? W…Where is…Jasper?" We heard a voice speak from downstairs. Both me and Edward froze and looked at each other wide eyed as we realized who's voice that matched to.

Alice has woken up.

Soooo, my lovely lovely readers, let me know what you think by reviewing. Pretty please, with a sparkly vampire on top (you decide which one).
