HEY! Pleaseeeee read my new story 'Transition' and leave a review! Because I'm updating when I should be doing school work ;)

A/N at the end.


I felt my eyes twitch and screw up slightly. My eyes began to open slowly, eventually fading from blurry to crystal clear. I realised I was looking at a bright white ceiling. They watered slightly at the sudden light entering them. That was when I heard a small, sharp intake of breath and I began to panic. I looked out of the corner of my eye and instantly relaxed to see a pair of coal black ones staring at me, concern dominant within them. I took in the frown on his face and his slightly parted lips.

"Bella?" The musical voice whispered. I was on his ice cold chest and his arms were holding me, the strange thing was, I couldn't feel them. I moved my head to look at him and instantly realised I shouldn't. A sharp pain ran through my body as I tried to move. I gasped loudly and my eyes filled with tears. I sat there, paralysed with not only fear.

"I can't move, why can't I move?" I asked him, uncontrollable tears sliding down my cheeks, my breathing picking up quickly and heart pounding heavily in my chest. He quickly wiped the tears away with his thumb.

"You were attacked. Do you not remember?"

"No..." I whispered, looking down slightly. More tears escaped just at the thought of being attacked, why would someone do this to me? I don't think I have offended anyone or done anything to upset someone. Unless... no, no, no. Phil would not upset my mother and killing me would upset her, so he is out of the picture. Although, she would probably be over it quick enough. She has plenty of friends and relatives who would help her. I barely saw her at home so she would barely realise I was gone. I wish my father was still here. I missed him more than anything. If he was here, maybe this would not have happened. He was the only person who truly cared about me. Then Renee wouldn't have got with Phil and I may have been happier. But, I mean, its not like I deserved to have everything. But if I had one thing, I wish I could get away from Forks. It held so many memories I'd rather forget and now there was someone out there wanting to hurt me. Wait, if I was found by Edward, then maybe he saw something, anything.

"Did you see anything?"

"No."

The coldness of his voice made me scared, his eyes were filled with raging anger.

"Do you know anything?" He was silently, looking at me with a creased forehead. "Ed-dward?" I stuttered, panic rapidly taking over my system.

"No."

And me? Well. In that short moment, everything around me turned black and I fell into darkness as I heard panicked shouts in the background.


A week turned into a month. I was still with the Cullens. I hadn't been to school. I hadn't seen Renee. Most importantly, I hadn't seen Phil. Carlisle had told me that he'd dropped me off in the centre of town and I had wandered into the woods near the house. Someone had attacked me and short memories were coming back of what happened. I now know who did it to me. But I didn't want to tell them or he would come and get me. I knew he would do it. He's done it before, many times. I tried to tell Renee and I was beaten, I tried to tell a teacher and I was beaten. This time, it would be even more severe. I knew I would be killed. I had so many things wrong with me after the attack, I could hardly remember. My leg was just about to come out of the cast it was currently in and my arm had come out of its a few days ago. Nobody spoke to me about the attack. Every time I thought about it I burst into tears. They don't bring it up anymore. But I know that it won't be long before they do. I slept in my guest room with either Alice or Edward most nights. I had always been told I talked in my sleep but my nightmares were so dark and vivid, apparently, I had been screaming in my sleep. I didn't realise I was doing it aloud, but I was definitely doing it in my dreams. Most nights it was me, running from Phil through a dark forest, he had a baseball bat. Most nights I would wake up just as he captured me, Alice or Edward would comfort me as I fell back to sleep.

I had spent most of my time with Edward. We had become even closer than we were before. We just got along really well. He was so easy to talk to about absolutely anything. He was always with me unless Alice decided she wanted time with me. The only time I was ever on my own was at night or when I was reading.

Alice insisted on playing 'Bella the Barbie' with Rosalie at every opportunity she was given. I may not be one for fashion but I did enjoy it. It took my mind off of the man trying to kill me. I was currently sitting in her room, in front of a mirror with her doing my nails and Rosalie combing my hair.

"So, Edward seems to be very protective of you," Rosalie began.

"We're just good friends. I like spending time with him."

"Please Bella!" Alice exclaimed, looking up from my nails. "You two so obviously like eachother."

"We're friends."

"Pssh, you will see yourself clearly someday Bella."

"I already see myself clearly Alice. I am completely realistic."

"Bella. Bella, Bella, Bella." She sighed.

"Bella you are beautiful," Rosalie said. I just blushed deciding not to continue the conversation before they lectured me... again. I sat there, waiting patiently as they talked among themselves.

"Lets go out tonight, lets take Bella to dinner."

"That's brilliant Rosalie." I looked up from the book I was reading, Romeo and Juliet, to Rosalie who had moved on to putting my hair in rollers to make it and Alice who was putting an overcoat on my black nails.

"You are taking me to dinner?" I asked.

"Yes, we will all go." Alice grinned.


She insisted on helping me get ready. She and Rosalie had gone to get ready and told me they would be five minutes... That was a little strange that it would only take them five minutes to get completely ready. But, I sat on the bed and waited for them. There was a light knock on the door and it opened slightly, revealing the mess of bronze hair and the face I loved seeing. Wait, loved? No, no. No, I didn't mean to say loved. I just enjoyed his company.

He saw me and chuckled.

"Loving the rollers Bella." I rolled my eyes as he came and sat on the bed beside me, I closed my book.

"Alice and Rosalie's idea. Apparently I need to look my best since we're all going to dinner." A quick look of disgust passed over his features and disappeared just as quickly. "What?"

"You saw that?" He asked, looking slightly shocked at the fact that I had. I shrugged. I wasn't 100% sure I did... but I'll just say I did anyway!

"So-" Edward began.

"Edward!" A high pitched musical voice said from the doorway. He groaned slightly and I just smiled.

"I guess I will see you later." He kissed my cheek briefly and left the room.
