Try to understand there's an old mistake that fools will make
And I'm the king of them, pushing everything that's good away
Wont you hold me now (I will not bend I will not break)
Wont you hold me now (I will not bend I will not break)

I am fairly agile
I can bend and not break
Or I can break and take it with a smile
And I am so resilient
I recover quickly
I'll convince you soon that I am fine- Bend And Not Break Dashboard Confessional

Bella's POV:

"Jacob why are you doing this? Where are you taking me? Where is Edward?" I asked frantically as my heart started to beat so loud, I thought it was going to beat right out of my chest. I was scared and terrified and every time I saw the steel gun Jake was holding, my body would start to shake all over. I couldn't believe Jake was doing this! I was his friend! Or at least I thought I was. I was so surprised Jake was doing this because he was always nice and kind to me, never mean or abusive. But now it seemed as though I didn't know him at all. I was also worried about Edward! I didn't know what I would do if anything was to happen to him! I hoped he was okay. I wondered where he was and what Tanya had to do with anything, I thought she was in jail. My head was spinning like a Ferris wheel and all I wanted to do was lay in bed with Edward and our baby.

"Shut up Bella and get in the car." Jacob demanded as he shoved me into his red Cruz.

"Where are we going? I thought you were my friend! Jake!" I yelled as I fell onto the passenger seat.

"I swear to god if you don't shut up I will shoot!" He yelled as he pointed the gun to my face. I gulped as I saw the steel barrel just a few meters from my face. Even though I wanted answers to the million of questions bubbling in my head, I knew it was best if I shut my mouth.

Then Jake started the car and drove off down the street. I looked out the window trying to figure out where we were headed, but I couldn't; nothing looked familiar!

"Oh and for your information Bella we are friends and once Tanya is done with Edward you will not only be my friend but my girlfriend as well." Jake said as he turned around a sharp corner.

"What are you talking about? What is going on with Edward? You will never be my boyfriend!" I shouted.

"What did I tell you?" Jake yelled as he swung the barrel of the gun against my face, knocking me out on impact.

My eye lids felt like weights as I tried to open them but I felt groggy and tired. My head was pounding like a drum. I tried to move my limbs but I couldn't. I couldn't move anything. My heart started to beat as my eyes became focused and I released I was sitting on a chair with my hands and feet tied with thick rope. I looked around and saw that I was sitting in a basement in which seemed to be a house.

All of a sudden I heard a moan; it was coming from the far side of the basement. It was dark so all I could see was a dark outline of a body but as soon as I heard another moan, I realized the body belonged to Edward!

"EDWARD! ARE YOU OKAY? WHAT HAPPENED?" I cried out realizing Edward was in bad shape. I didn't know what happened to him, but I knew he was hurt really bad.

"Bella…." Edward said struggling with each breath he took.

But before I could respond, I heard footsteps and then I heard his voice.

"Well, well, well I see you are finally awake, and don't you look pretty." Jake said as he walked closer to me and touched my cheek with his finger.

"GET AWAY FROM ME!" I cried out trying to escape my restraints.

"There, there Bella remember I am the one with the gun and with one shot I can kill your precious baby." He said rubbing my stomach.

I felt nauseous at his touch but I remained calm.

All of a sudden I heard a growl, which came from Edward.

"Oh I see he is finally awake as well….mmm let's move him closer so you can get a look at your beautiful man." Jake said as he walked over to Edward and dragged his body towards me.

I almost shrieked at the sight of Edward. His lips were swollen, he had two black eyes and his shirt was drenched with blood. I looked into his pain filled eyes and wished I could hold him tight.

"Are you okay?" He mouthed slowly.

I nodded my head, letting him know I was fine.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM?" I yelled.

"Well I guess your man isn't as strong as you thought. Who is going to save you now?" He asked as he laughed.

"Oh and I didn't do anything, it was all Tanya's men who are responsible for Edward's condition. I just wanted to hurt him a bit so he could watch me do this." Jake said as he leaned into me and started to kiss me.

His touch was like poison to me but I couldn't do anything to stop him. Then he started to touch my breasts with his hands.

"Don't worry after this Edward will be dead." Jake said as he pointed to the stair well. I looked past Jake and saw Tanya along with five huge, strong men. They looked like security guards. Those were probably the men who hurt Edward.

"NO! GET AWAY FROM ME!" I yelled.

"Shhh, don't worry soon you will be mine." Jake said as he covered my mouth with his right hand, tore my shirt and started to lick my left nipple while still holding onto the gun.

All I could do was stare at Edward who was looking at me with helpless eyes. Then I looked at Tanya and her crew, realizing Jake was right, he was going to kill him. I couldn't let that happen. I had to save him. I loved him too much. I wanted to raise this baby with him.

"Don't you see we are meant to be? Ever since we broke up I have thought of you and I knew I had to get you back and get you away from that creep! Now when he is gone we can be together!" Jake said.

No, no, no, no! I kept saying to myself. There had to be something I could do. All of a sudden I had an idea.

"Your right Jake, we are meant to be. I don't really love Edward, I love you more and I need you. I am so happy you came back! Now if you untie me I can show you how happy I really am." I said as I winked at him and tried to tease him even though my stomach was churning.

"Are you telling me the truth?" Jake asked.

"Of course. You're the one I love." I said.

All of a sudden Jake's face lit up like a Christmas tree.

"Well if you had told me this sooner, we could have saved everyone a lot of trouble." Jake said as he started to untie my hands and feet.

Then he slowly placed my body on the floor as my skin hit the cold cement, causing my goose bumps to appear all over my skin.

"Sorry pal, but your girlfriend loves me and not you!" Jake said as I looked at Edward's pained expression. I hoped he would realize I was saying all of this in order to save his life, but it looked as though his heart was breaking in two.

Next thing I knew Jake was on top of me, dropped the gun and started to undo my pants.

"NO!" Edward managed to shout. But with one quick hand motion, one of the men came over and kicked Edward in the ribs. I cringed when I heard his scream echo throughout the basement.

As soon as Jake reached my panties, I knew I had to do something quick. Although I had never used a gun before I knew I had to use it. It was the only way to stop this manic. So with one quick movement I grabbed the gun and without even thinking I shot it at Jake. I heard the shot echo around the room as Jake's still body fell onto the cement floor.

"Get the hell out of here or I will shoot!" I yelled as I stood up and pointed the gun at Tanya and the men.

"Oh I don't think so!" Tanya yelled as she ran at me and pushed me to the floor knocking the gun out of my hands. Although I was strong, being pregnant took all of my strength. Tanya didn't go after the gun instead I knew she was trying to hurt my baby, because she was trying to punch my stomach.

"GET OFF OF ME!" I cried out worried for Hayley's safety. But the more I tried to fight the more she fought and I knew there was no way I could win. After everything that I had been through, this was how it was going to end.

All of a sudden I heard a gunshot and Tanya's body go numb. I looked over and saw Edward was on his knees with the gun in his hand. Then he looked at the men.

"Hey I don't want to shoot you, but I will. If you want money I can give it to you but please don't hurt Bella, she is pregnant. I don't think you want to shoot a baby or even kill a baby's father." Edward said.

I prayed the men would leave and even though I didn't think they would, they did. I guess they wanted to live after all.

Once they left I ran to Edward who was now slouched on the floor.

"Oh Edward are you okay? What happened?" I asked nervously, trying to see how bad he was.

"I'm okay, how are you? Did you mean what you said?" Edward asked seriously.

"Do you really have to ask that? I love you so much! I just said that so he would untie me and I could save you, which I think I did a pretty good job of doing." I said smiling.

"You are so smart Bella I love you. I am so sorry this has all happened. I hated seeing you in his arms, I felt helpless watching you. I hope you still want to be my wife." Edward said.

"Of course Edward! People can try to bend us but we are so strong we will never break." I said as I kissed him.

All of a sudden I heard sirens and then heavy footsteps running down the stairs. It was the paramedics and police.

"A neighbour over heard gunshots and phoned 9-1-1." One of the police men said.

I sighed with relief and prayed Edward would be okay.
