I laugh, "No, of course not."
"Oh, well you are to young any way," Rosalie says.
I laugh, then I start to think "Wait, do I look fat?"
"No, you don't look fat, you're like at tooth pick!" Jasper says laughing.
"So, I am too skinny?" I ask.
"No!" Jasper says.
"Bella, you are beautiful just the way you are," Edward says to me.
"Awe, thank you!" I say.
He kisses me softly.
"EWW!" Everyone says from behind us.
"Shut up!" I say and then kiss Edward again.
"Okay, okay, what did you need to tell us?" Emmett asks.
I sigh while Edward holds my hand for reassurance.
I tell them everything. It takes me about thirty minutes to get the whole story out. I look around at the faces of my new family to see shock and pain.
We all sit in quiet for a little until someone was brave enough to ask a question.
"Did she ever say she was sorry?" Emmett asks.
"No, because she never remembered any of it. Or if she did she never said anything to me."
"Did she do anything else after that?" Jasper asks.
"Every time she got drunk after that she would beat me even though I did everything I was told."
I start to cry and Edward rubs soothing circles on my back.
"I won't ever let her hurt you again," Edward says.
"Why did you ever tell me?" Alice asks.
"I was scared that you might do something. Plus I felt like I need to protect you. This is why we moved here," I say.
"I wouldn't have done anything," Alice says.
"Alice, you would have made me go to the police. As much as she did beat me I don't want her in jail," I say.
"I know," she says, agreeing with me.
