Bad to the Bones
Chapter 3
I was shocked; I stopped hitting Alec on his back. The whole class gasped, it had never been this quiet in a classroom. Even the guys who were laughing about the speech were overwhelmed but not in a good way.
"Edward, isn't this going to be a little too far?" He smiled at the teacher but didn't say anything. Despair was written in my eyes. I was looking at Angela; she was also looking at me. But the way she was looking terrified me, she looked in horror. Edward walked over to the teacher.
"Weren't you the one who said I didn't have any limits?" Alec and the other two started laughing. The teacher didn't know what to do or say.
"Well guys let's go."
Edward was standing in front of me. We were in the middle of the woods. With every step I took back he took two steps forward. When I had taken three steps, my back was against a tree. I had a problem now, I couldn't go anywhere. If I would try he probably dragged me right back. His eyes were looking at me with a great deal of anger in it.
"Why am I here?" It just popped out of my mouth. I held a hand in front of my mouth, on his face appeared a grin. I believed he already knew I was going to ask that.
"Because you are Isabella and you are the daughter of Chief Swan." I didn't get it, what was so weird about that.
"So?" He looked angry at me.
"Don't go smart with me." I looked to the ground. He really scared me, and for what being the chief's daughter. An angry feeling was starting to grow in me. I took long breathes to calm myself down. I wasn't going to get anywhere if I made Edward even angrier.
"You know how your daddy is always of the rules." Edward began his story. I nodded in agreement. "Well a few times he caught me doing some illegal stuff and he arrested me." Now I knew for sure he was a bad boy, but not a high school bad boy but a real one. He paused for a minute and he walked over to me. He was standing right in front of me. His hand went up and he placed it right next to my left ear and he bent his head to my right ear.
"And now I want payback and Isabella you are my ticket." I gasped. Why was this happening to me? I didn't do anything wrong, I went to this hell to make my mom happy and in a coincidence I also made Charlie happy with it. And especially I was going to have a cruel life. I couldn't think of something to say for a few minutes. Without knowing what I did I slept him right in his face. His eyes widened, his hand took hold of my chin and he made me look up at him.
"If you do that again, I will make you pay." I swallowed. In my eyes he saw I was afraid.
"I'll pick you up tomorrow." It came out of his mouth with a soft and sweet voice. He looked behind him and Alec came out of nowhere, he took my arm and dragged me out of the woods. When we were on the parking lot the bell rang. I hadn't notice the time went that fast.
"Bella, if you just do what Edward says he doesn't harm you. He never planned that."
Charlie came to pick me up from school. He didn't ask about my first day and I was glad about that, I had no idea what I had to do, to make the next day any easier. There was a great chance that a lot of people would come to me to ask what happened. I think that they will freak out when they see me come out of Edward's car.
When we were home Charlie went back to the police station. There I was alone in a house where I didn't feel save. Though I didn't mind to be alone for a while. I wanted to think about a solution for my problem with Edward. He was going to be there in the morning, I wasn't going to survive this if Charlie knew Edward would drive me to school.
At six o'clock Charlie was home from his work, he looked happy. I never thought he would be like this. For the last four days he was completely different from all the vacations we spend together. He was lighted up and he wasn't the workaholic I used to know.
The next day.
It was eight o'clock in the morning, in about five minutes Edward would be standing in front of the house. My legs were shacking and every second I looked at the clock. Charlie didn't notice a thing. Outside we heard a car that came racing in to the street and stopped in front of the house. It was Edward, to make it any better he honked. A fake smile appeared on my face.
"This is my ride." Charlie looked up in surprise. In a fast tempo I took my things and walked out of the house before Charlie could say anything. Edward was hanging against his car. I knew that was his, it was an Audi R8.
"Nice ride." It was the only thing I could think about to say to him. He nodded but his eyes where somewhere behind me. I was absolutely sure he was looking at Charlie. I saw he went looking at the window, when I left the house.
"Give me a hug." I looked at him; I wasn't going to give him a hug. He saw on my face what I was thinking. He took my hand and dragged me into a hug. I didn't want to see the expression on Charlie's face. But hugging Edward wasn't one of the most horrible things. It felt like Edward was hugging me for an hour but actually it was only a few seconds. When his strong arms let go of me I already missed them, hugging Edward made me fly up to heaven. I was dropped right back to earth when I saw he was angry with me. I couldn't figure out why he was angry with me.
"Get in the car." When we were in the car, he drove away in a high tempo.
"I don't want you to disobey me again." I looked at him, it wasn't a good idea to contradict him. That wouldn't make the situation any better.
"If I do everything you say, you won't interfere with me?" He laughed.
"You wish. It will only make things less difficult for you." With that sentence the conversation was over.
When we arrived at school, people were looking at me and Edward. He walked away and let me stand were I was. He wasn't much of a gentleman. Some girls were still staring at me with angry in their eyes. I ignored it as much as I could.
The day in school went pretty fast. I was a bit lonely because not much people dared to come to me. They were all afraid Edward would come and let them pay for even come close to me. But I didn't saw Edward for the whole day. Of course Mike came and he was still the same as yesterday. The puppy kept running after me.
When the bell rang I walked to my locker, my last lesson just ended. When I opened my locker a letter fell out of it. It felt like it was Valentine's Day, but it wasn't. I putted it in my backpack and threw my backpack over my shoulder. When I came outside I saw Charlie's police car standing in the back. I walked over to the car when I was grabbed by the so familiar strong arms of Edward.
"Where are you going Isabella? I brought you to school so I have to bring you back." I looked at him. Did he think I was stupid?
"You are only doing that because Charlie is waiting for me." An evil grin appeared on his face.
"You are a fast learner." He whispered in my ear. His smell was everywhere and if I didn't stepped back I would be drowned in it.
"I still want to talk to you about something." I sighed. He knew I couldn't say no. I took my phone and texted Charlie I was driving with someone else. When I had sent the message, he almost immediately called me. Edward grinned when he saw that Charlie called me. He took the phone out of my hand and answered it.
"Hello. Can you call back later we are busy at the moment." I heard Charlie yelling out of the phone but Edward ignored it and pressed the call off.
"I am going to get in so much trouble."
Charlie didn't speak to me for the whole day; I knew I deserved it in his eyes. But I couldn't do anything about it. In the morning Edward didn't come to pick me up. What was a good thing if Charlie saw he picked me up again I was going to die. I thanked Charlie for bringing me but he didn't respond at me. I actually felt really bad for him but I couldn't do anything to make him feel better. I walked away from the car and I heard Charlie drove away.
There wasn't anyone on the parking lot. It felt weird; I walked to the entrance of the school. Jessica was waiting for me there.
"Bella hurry, Edward and Mike are fighting over you. And of course Edward is winning. I am afraid something will happen to him. " We ran to the cafeteria and there were a lot of people. I could hear Edward yell above all the other voices. Jessica and I tried to get through the crowd but it was impossible. How was I going to help Mike if I couldn't get through the crowd. Jessica saw Tyler; he let me get through and there I was. Edward, Alec and Mike were the three where everybody was looking at. Alec had Mike in a tight grip. Edward was in front of him yelling.
"How dear you, sending her such a letter?" A letter? Shit he had the letter that fell out of my locker. It was from Mike, it made it a lot less interesting. But I found it sweet of him. Edward punched Mike right in the face. His nose started to bleed. I had to do something before it would run out of control.
"Why did you sent this to her, when you know she is my property." Mike still laughed.
"She is not your property, she will never be." It only made Edward Angrier. He punched him in his belly. Mike was coughing blood out of his mouth.
"She is my girl and she will always be."
