Bad to the Bones

Chapter 5

When those words were out of his mouth we stopped in front of the snack bar. I couldn't take it anymore. All the emotions that I spared up in the week came out at once. Tears were running down along my face. Edward didn't look at me; he seemed to be in his own world.

"When you fall in love with me you will hurt your father." I knew what I heard was real, but I didn't want to know that. Edward was mean but he couldn't be that bad, he just couldn't. All kinds of things were spinning through my head. What was I suppose to do? At that moment the only thing I could think of was to just run away. I wanted to open the door but Edward took my arm.

"Don't go, please." It was actually a bit of a shock to hear those words come out of Edward's mouth. For a few seconds I heard those words in my head, over and over again. When I realised what I was doing, I pulled my arm out of his fist. I stepped out of the car and started walking home.

For the rest day the same sentence was spinning through my head. "Isabella you are already helping me by falling in love with me." I just couldn't get it out of there. It was repeating itself again and again. He voice was hard and it seemed to me that he meant it. His feelings were totally messed up in the car. He told me the truth but he was angry with the truth. He wanted me to stay with me.

It is Monday again, the first week was over. I didn't know if that was a good a thing or not. It would be the first day that I would see Edward again after our fight. If you could call it a fight, I really had no idea what happened. It looked like his soft site came back at that exact same moment. He didn't want me to go, he begged me. Bella why are you thinking again? Do you still believe in his soft site? Look at what he did to you on Saturday. How could he have a soft site? Was I saying to myself. Edward wasn't a nice guy. He would probably laugh if he knew I was thinking like this. Though there was a big change that he already knew that I was thinking about this stuff. A great deal of all this could be his plan. Edward seemed to be someone who would do everything to succeed.

Charlie pulled the car on the parking lot. There weren't many cars, but what do you want if it is Monday and it is still 8 pm. A lot of students of Forks high were students who preferred to sleep instead of going to school. Luckily Edward was also like that. What was good, because I would have more time to think about what I would say to him.

The school day was over and there was no Edward. It felt weird that he wasn't in school. He always seemed to like school, but I guess I was wrong. It wouldn't be the first time I was wrong about him. He was definitely different from all of the other boys in the school. He was mysteries and he could be sweet if he wanted it. And of course he was the most handsome guy ever. Could someone like that change into a Devil?

In the evening I was expecting Edward to come by the house. But he didn't, it felt awkward. Where would he be?

The whole week went by like this, Edward was gone. It made me feel a bit better but to be honest I missed him. My life was the same as it had always been. Edward made my life go up-side-down and now it felt like he never existed. It was weekend again and Angela en Jessica obliged me to go to Port Angeles, to go shopping. There wasn't a change that I would win the discussion, so I just agreed. They should be here any minute.

"Bella are you as even exited as we are?" Asked Jessica. I rolled my eyes an looked at Angela, who wasn't paying attention to her.

"Yes of course I am." I tried to say it as credible as possible. It seemed like she was believing it. I smiled at her and we walked to the car.

When we were in Port Angeles, I could see that there weren't many shops. But I didn't expected that there would be many. Port Angeles is bigger than Forks, but with that everything is said. Port Angeles was still a very small city.

An hour went by and I still hadn't found anything to buy. I was never a girl who spend all of her money on clothes but in this city no one could find anything nice here.

"Bella, isn't this something for you." Angela was standing in front of me with the most awful dress ever. It was green and it was way too big for me.

"I don't know Angela. I don't really like to wear any dresses." She nodded and put the dress back. We were both waiting for Jessica who was trying a lot of clothes. Jessica was a girl who bought a lot of clothes but I won't say that she had a good taste.

When I looked out of the window I saw Edward. What was he doing here? He was in Port Angeles instead of in school. For just a second I closed my eyes, and when I opened them Edward was gone.

I couldn't focus on the shopping anymore. Edward was again spinning through my head. I just had to see him.

"Jessica, Angela I am going to look for a book shop. I will see you guys by the restaurant." It sounded more like a question but I didn't wait for their answer and walked out of the shop. I had no idea where Edward could be but I had to find him. I walked through a lot of streets but he was nowhere to be found. Where could he be? He had to be somewhere here.

"You are doing to die today, Edward Cullen." I heard some guys yell. That couldn't be good news. It seemed like it was real. I know it was the stupidest thing to do but I ran street to the screaming sounds. Edward was in trouble and I couldn't just stand there and listen to how he died. The adrenalin was flowing through my veins. I had to be there on time. When I wanted to get around the corner I was slammed into someone. He let a cry out of hurt, I looked up and I was shocked. It was Edward. For a second we looked into each other's eyes, but that was for just a second. Straight after that I looked back over his shoulder and saw four guys running our way. They were shouting things like: "get back here" or "you basted, I'll kill you". My eyes went big, I was right Edward was in trouble. He grabbed my arm and dragged me through a lot of streets. Edward was very fast, I had to get all of my strength together to keep track of him.

"What is going on?" I asked him. We were sitting in his car. He didn't answer me and he started to ask questions.

"What are you doing here? You ran right into me. I may hoop that it wasn't planned." I just looked at him. I knew that he already knew the answer. He looked away and took the wheel with both hands. Only then I saw that he was injured on his hand. Right in his left hand there was a big cut. His hand was bleeding extremely, it looked awful.

"O my God. Are you okay?" I wanted to grab his hand but he didn't let me.

"It is fine, I barely feel it." Yeah sure was the only thing I thought. I couldn't say anything else because Edward drove away. On the drive I texted Jessica that I had to go because Charlie called. Luckily she believed it.

He stopped in front of my house. For a few minutes we were just standing there. I guess he expected me to go out of the car but I wasn't planning to do that.

"Come with me so I can take care of your hand. Charlie isn't home." He looked at me. There were a lot of emotions in his eyes.

"See my eyes." He said. I didn't know what he meant by that but he was very serious. His eyes were dark and empty. I think he wanted me to see who he really was. He wanted to change my mind about him, but I was afraid that it wouldn't change.

"Stay." I stepped out of the car and stepped in to the house. Out of a cabinet I took the first aid kit. When I walked out of the house Edward was still waiting in his car.

"Here let me." He gave me his hand. I tried to make my moves so careful as possible, I didn't want to give him any more pain.

"What happened in Port Angeles? " He didn't answer.

"I deserve an answer. Especially after last week." I sigh came out of his mouth.

"Some things went out of control. Bella, I don't want you to ever come and help me again." It was quiet in the car, we both didn't say a thing. When I was done with his hand he gave me a smile.

"Thanks." He looked into my eyes.

"I look into your eyes and I don't see hate. You should hate me Bella." He was right I should but I couldn't. I just couldn't hate Edward. One of the problems why I couldn't hate him was his beauty. In these two weeks he hurt me a lot but I didn't seem to care. I wanted to care but my heart didn't listen to my brains. It would have been a lot easier if they did.

"Why can't you stop doing things that are dangerous or cruel." A smile appeared on his face. For the first time he seemed to laugh for real. His eyes were lightened up and his smile was even more handsome than normal.

"I can't stop because I am having too much fun."
