Hey, I know it has been a while, but i have been so busy over my xmas holidays that i havent had time to write, and then i had to pack to go back to uni so seriously no time. Anyway, i did manage to finish this and i finally got time to update it so enjoy. ill see you at the bottom :)
Bella's POV
The weeks that followed the hikers incident, had been a whirlwind of emotions. There had been a number of arguments, mainly between Rosalie and me, which then lead to arguments between me and Jasper.
I hated all this arguing, especially since the topic seemed to be about my children.
Even after all the arguments that Rosalie and I had had over the past few weeks, I still don't see where the hell she had the right to tell me when I could hold my children, and then trying to take them away from me when she thought I had enough time.
Currently I was sitting on the sofa with my cat on my lap. The babies are currently sleeping so I was spending time with my other baby. The fluffy one with lots of fur.
Jasper had gone out with Peter and Charlotte to get some more things for the babies, so I had some time to myself before the babies woke up.
Bobby was fast asleep on my lap. I don't know where she has been since I have been here, but I feel really bad that I left her for so long. I think she missed me, since she has been stuck to me since Alice brought her back. Jasper had gotten use to her being around again. I knew that Jasper didn't like my cat, and bob knew that too. Cats always seem to want to sit on the laps of people who they know don't like them, just to annoy. So, when my cat wasn't glued to my lap, she was with Jasper. This was just a testament to how much Jasper loved me if he is willing to put up with my cat.
I don't know how long I sat on the sofa for before, I heard one of the babies beginning to stir upstairs. Bob could tell that I wanted to get up of the sofa, so she jumped off my lap with a look of disgust on her face, and curled up on the cushion next to me.
"Don't look at me like that, you horrible little thing." I said to her as I got up from the sofa, scratching her ears as I walked past.
As I started to walk up the stairs, I could hear someone moving around in one of the bedrooms. Suddenly realising that I wasn't the only one in the house, I ran up the stairs as fast as I could, and practically collided into Rosalie, who was coming out of her room.
"Watch where you're going." She snarled at me, as she got up off the floor.
"Im sorry. I wouldn't have run into you if you weren't lurking in the corridor." I told her.
"I wasn't lurking, I was just going to check on the babies." Rosalie said, as she tried to walk past me.
I grabbed her arm and stopped her from moving.
"And why, may I ask, are you going to check on MY children, when you know full well that I am in the house?" I asked her.
She didn't answer me. I pulled her arm so that she was behind me, and I walked past her into the babies room.
Lexi was the one who was starting to wake up, so I went over to her cot and waited for her to fully wake. When she did, she opened her eyes and looked up at me and gurgled happily.
"Good afternoon baby girl. Did you have a nice sleep?" I cooed at her, as I picked her up and held her.
I looked over at Jackson, who was still fast asleep in his cot. I walked out of the babies room, and walked down the hall to Jasper and mines room. Lexi wasn't due to be fed for another few hours, so decide to spend some alone time with my little girl. I didn't get to do it very often, because when Jasper was home, she liked to spend all her time with her daddy.
I could tell that she was getting hungry, because she was starting to get fussing, but I had to wait until Jackson had woken up. We were trying our best to feed them both the same time, so that they didn't develop separate routines. That would just confuse people.
Lexi started crying again, but it wasn't a hungry cry, she needed changing. I picked her up and carried her over to the changing table, so that I could change her. The moment that I set her down, I could hear Jackson starting to cry. I couldn't leave her on the changing table, but I didn't want to leave Jackson cry.
"Do you want me to get him?" I heard Rose ask me from the doorway.
I looked at her over my shoulder. At least she was asking me this time.
"Yes please, if you don't mind. You can just bring him in here." I told her as I turned my attention back to my daughter on the changing table. Rose brought Jackson into my room, and lay him on the bed.
"Thank you Rose." I told her.
"It's fine. I'm just glad you let me pick him up. Every other time I trying, you practically bite my head off." She said as he turned to go out of the room.
"The only reasons I do that it because, I feel like you are doing theses things to take my children away from me. Because for some reason you don't like them being with me, ever though they are my children!" I told her, as I finished Lexi's nappy.
"Ok, maybe I'm in the wrong when I try and do thing for them, but you have to admit, It isn't like I have had no reason. I am only trying to protect them." Rose explained.
"I know, but apart from that one slip up weeks ago, have I given you any reason to doubt my love for my children. I would never hurt them." I told her.
"I know that you wouldn't. Not intentionally. But what happens one day when, they are older and they start toddling around. What happens if one of them falls and cuts themselves. Do you think you will be able to resist their blood?" she asked me.
"That is a long way off yet." I told her.
"Not as long as you think. You have to be able to see that after the hikers incident, that you are a bit of a risk. I know I have been going the wrong way about it, but all I want is for the babies to feel safe." She told me.
"I'm their mother. If they cant be safe with me, who can they be safe with?" I asked her, still not understanding her logic.
"Fine, I'll back off. I'm just trying my best to look out for them, that's all." She said as she walked away.
Seeing her look so defeated made my resolve crumble a little. I knew that she only wanted what was best for my children, and really, I wanted as many people as I could have watching over my children. I also wanted a family environment where my children didn't see fighting everyday. And if they meant allowing their Aunt to be over protective, then I was just going to have to live with it.
"I know you are Rose, and I appreciate it. I really do. I know I haven't been showing it in the right way. Look, to show you I'm sorry and that I do actually trust you, why don't you and Alice watch them for a little while. I need to go to the store anyway to get food for my cat. It would save me a lot of time if I didn't have to get these two ready as well." I asked her.
"Are you sure?" she asked me.
"Yeah. As much as I dislike your methods, I know that you love them and they love you. I want them to have all their aunts and uncles in their life." I said, as I gave Lexi to Rose and went over to pick Jackson up from the bed.
I could how happy this made Rose, me giving her the chance to spend time with the babies. I had been a little bit tight with her. I really should give her a chance.
Rose and I took the babies into her and Emmett's room, so I could get ready to go out.
Once I was ready I went to leave.
"I shouldn't be very long, I only need to go to the store and them I have to go to the nursery. I haven't been there for so long. I need to catch up on what is happening." I told Rose.
"Ok. Alice was there the other day, she said something about new application forms being brought in. so there may be a few files for you to pick up." Rose told me.
"Yay, paper work. At least it will give me something to do. Ill see you in a while." I went over and kissed my babies before going to the garage to get my car.
I decided to go to the store first, because I didn't know how long I was going to be at the nursery for if there were new applicants.
I picked up food for my evil cat, and a few other things for her. I went to pay for everything before walking out to my car.
Just as I was leaving I over heard a couple arguing, but it didn't sound like the usual lovers tiffs that some people have in public.
"I've told you to stay away from me!" The girl yelled at the man through gritted teeth. She didn't look very long, I would say about 18, 19 at the most. The man she was having words with looked a little bit older.
"You don't mean that. The last time you 'threatened' that I stay away from you, you said you would call the police. I don't remember seeing a single police man last time we met." He said, moving closer to her.
The girl didn't say anything back to him , but I could tell from her posture that she was scared of him. I walked over to my car slowly and began putting things into the boot.
"I mean it this time. You touch me again, and I will call the police." The girl said as she moved away from him and ran down the street. The man stayed where he was for a few seconds before I followed her.
I know, I shouldn't have followed him, but I felt compelled to. I knew that something was going to happen to this girl if I didn't follow.
I locked up my car and followed him down the street. He was only a few hundred yards behind her, and I was hoping that he would back off and leave her alone, but that didn't happen.
The girl turned down into a path in between two buildings, and the man followed. It didn't take me long before I could hear the screams from the path.
"GET OFF ME!" She screamed. I ran towards the path, not knowing what I was going to do, but knowing that I had to do something.
I looked around the corner until I could see them. The man had the girl by the throat and had her against the wall. Tears were streaming down her face. He pulled her head back and then hit it against the wall. Her eyes closed and she slumped to the ground. I could smell the blood that was coming out of the wound on her head.
I knew I should have called someone, the police or an ambulance, and I was about to, until I saw him removing some of her clothes. I was struck with horror and disgust, because I knew what he was about to do.
I didn't think about what I did. Not thinking about if anyone saw me, or what my husband was going to say when I got home covered in this monsters blood, but I couldn't sit around and watch as this man… I didn't even want to think about it.
I quickly and silently moved through the alley, until I was standing right behind the man. He had been able to remove the girls jeans, and I could see him working on her underwear. The girl groaned from the ground, and I knew she was coming around. I had to get this monster now, before she woke up completely.
I grabbed the man by the neck and pulled him away from the girl. He struggled against my grip but I refused to let him go. If I did any good in the world today, I would make sure that there would be one less rapist walking the streets.
I pulled the mans neck to the side and sunk my teeth into his neck. I put my hand over his mouth to cover his scream. I drank and drank, until all the blood had been drained from his body. I pushed the body away from me and wiped my mouth to make sure that I didn't have any blood on my face. Surprisingly I was clean, which was a change.
I threw the body into a rubbish dumpster that was close by and covered it. I would have to come back and hide this more carefully, but the body should be safe here for now.
As soon as I knew the body was hidden, I went over to the girl who was laying on the floor, she was just coming around as I reached her.
"Oh my god, are you ok? What happened?" I asked her, pretending that I hadn't been following her.
The girl looked around frantically. Her eyes wide with fear.
"Where is he? Where did he go?" she asked, sitting up, and then realising that she had a cut on her head.
"What happened?" she asked.
"I don't know. I was walking down the street and I saw you lying here." I told her. She looked down at her bare legs, and tried to move away.
"I think you need to go to the hospital. Come on I'll take you. Can you walk a little way to get to my car?" I asked her. She nodded and tried to stand up, but her knees gave way under her and she fell back to the ground. I caught her by wrapping my arm around her waist.
"Ok, clearly you cant walk, but my car is only around the corner. I will go get it and come back ok?" I said, as I sat her back down on the ground.
She nodded her head, tears filling her eyes and she went into shock. I knew she needed medical attention, but I couldn't give it to her.
"I'll be back. I know a doctor in the hospital, I will call him and tell him to be ready. I promise, they will take care of you." I said as I got up and ran to my car. As soon as I got there I pulled out my phone and called Carlisle.
"Bella, whats the matter?" he asked me.
"I found a women in town. A man was attempting to rape her. She is pretty banged up and in shock. I'm going to bring her down to you now." I told him.
"if you found the women, where is the man. We need to call the police if he got away." Carlisle said.
"I took care of him." I said between my teeth.
I heard Carlisle sigh on the other end of the phone.
"Jasper isn't going to like this Bella."
"I don't care. I can deal with him. I'll be at the hospital as soon as I can." I told him before hanging up.
I drove quickly through town until I found the girl again.
I took her to the hospital, leaving her in the very capable hands of Carlisle and the other doctors. I still needed to go to the nursery and then I would have to go home to face Jasper.
What a fun day this was turning out to be!
So? I just realised while i was writting this, that i did actually have a back story for Bella in MSG and i never used it, so now im gonna try and bring it back into this one. I think i can. Anyway, what did you think about it? Let me know and i will try and update ASAP. Thanks,
