A/N: Hello, I hope your liking my story so far. At the moment I have started reading Twilight (I haven't actually read it :O!). Anyway If you like it fav/alert and review :D Thanks for answering the questions, I was curious, haha.
Poisoned Rose.
Chapter 10- unseeingly
*Edwards POV*
~Flashback~
It was the day after I had become I murderer. I'd left Bella with her family and headed to meet Jane and James. I'd come for my money; nothing more, nothing less.
''Nice work,'' James congratulated, while patting me lightly on the back. Pain pumped through my veins. I didn't look at him; I stared at the floor, not wanting to see his smug face. How could he be so happy?
'I haven't come for your congratulations, I've come for the money. We're taking a holiday.'' I lied, the words falling in to place.
''When you say we you mean…'' He didn't need to finish.
''Me and my parents,'' I snarled. ''So where's my money?'' I demanded trying to keep my tone calm; I was failing.
''Then you can have it when you come back,'' he snarled with a horrible smirk on his face. He was one step a head of me.
''Right,'' I trembled. I knew I wouldn't be back but I couldn't pressure him into giving it me; he would know something was up. We exchange a few harsh looks at each other before I walked away.
Although I hated Jane and James, it was quite hard to know I'd never see them again; or so I thought.
~End of flashback~
*Bella's POV*
''Edward…'' I began as we sat down to eat. Bacon, eggs and sausage- my favourite. He stopped eating and looked at me his face full of confusion.
''We don't really, well, we don't really speak much…'' I couldn't find the right words. I felt a blush slowly creep on to my cheeks. He didn't answer for a long time; at first I didn't think he was even going to.
''I know. Things have been pretty hectic. I'm sorry if I've sounded rude lately.'' He spoke in his incredible, musical sounding voice; he made goosebumps appear all over my body and my top lip began trembling.
''Maybe we should talk more then,'' I smiled, with a slight chuckle. He nodded with an mischievous smile on his face. I couldn't help but fall for him again.
*Edwards POV*
It was quite a relief that Bella still liked me the way she did before. I still felt guilty but I told myself I was doing this for her. She needed me as much as I needed her. After dinner I popped out; James and Jane had arrange a meeting with me. I couldn't pretend I wasn't nervous. I hated lying to Bella; I'd told her I was going for a stroll to clear my thoughts.
The rain bounced around the darkened alley. The walls were close together, making me feel like I was in a cage. Although I had seen James and Jane before, I was still nervous. The first time I met up with them, they weren't angry. They were waiting for the perfect moment. I knew them well enough to realize payback and revenge were their best friend. A chill snuck up my back as I saw their silhouettes standing at the bottom of the alley. The wind blew fiercely making the trees rock from side to side violently, making me shiver.
They walked closer to me in a casual manner, their faces finally becoming visible.
''Edward,'' James smirked, his voice showing all signs of revenge. My body started to feel week and wobbly; I hated feeling like this.
''James, what do you want?'' My words were no more than a quiet murmur. I tried to show I wasn't scared by relaxing my body a little.
''We want to catch up, we haven't really spoken much have we?'' he mocked, enhancing the words 'have we.' I took a deep breath and composed myself.
''Stop playing games, what are you really here for?'' My voice was more demanding and stronger now, but still showed signs of weakness.
''You should know by now we don't play games!'' he snarled and squared up to me. I stayed still, looking up into his evil, narrow black eyes. His facial expressions showed his wasn't playing. He was serious.
''James do you really need any more violence? I did what you wanted, now please leave us in peace.'' My begging was almost tragic, pathetic and stupid. What was I doing?
''Leave you and Bella in peace!'' He laughed out loud, not finding it funny. ''You were never even meant to like her! It was all a plan and you think I'll just leave you to alone? Have you lost it? Are you completely insane?'' he snarled, shooting impossible questions at me.
''Well I did. I'm sorry,'' I apologized without even really understanding why.
''You'll be sorry!'' His threat bounced around in my head. I stared at his face, unseeingly. Terror paralyzed my face and body.
''Please! All I asked is that you to forget about me, forget about Bella and leave us alone.'' I begged again.
''Never.'' The word had so much meaning and depth to it. Before I had chance to react, they left. I felt a rush of coldness hit me as I stared down the damp, freezing, long alley. The sun battled against the black, heavy rain cloud and the pouring rain which slipped from the heavens above. It wasn't until moments passed that I decided to go back home. I didn't want to, but Bella would be worried.
My chances had finally blown up in my face. They would have their revenge. One day they'd completely destroy Bella. I had no choice but to get rid of them; one way or another…
A/N: Thanks for reading. This chapter was quite short, sorry! I haven't updated in ages and I was feeling guilty so did it quick! Sorry. I enjoyed writing this chapter! Its kind of on a cliff hanger. So will Edward get to them first or will they get to him first?
Don't forget to review/fav/alert=]
