Chapter 2: Accident

~~~~ TSM ~~~~

~ 2 months ago ~

Bella entered the police station 20 minutes after Edward told her about what happened.

Everyone was at the police station, Rosalie and Emmett crying hugging Esme who was hysterical, Carlisle was in a corner covering his face with his hands, and Mr. Brandon sobbing in a corner, saw Edward leaving one of the offices along with the one that supposed, was in charge of the paperwork of the accident, I walked towards them without doubting.

- Edward - I got next to him hugging him immediately - baby…

- Jasper is dead Bella - whispered hugging her small waist - Jasper and Alice died instantly.

- A patrol will escort you, the young lady can accompany you if you like - Bella nodded in the middle of the sentence, she would not leave her husband when he needed her most - it will be waiting for you at the entrance when you want to leave.

- I have to tell them that they are dead and I will go to recognize the bodies so they can give them to me and we can bury them.

- I will go with you.

- Thanks babe

Bella did not let go of Edward's arm, not even when he had to tell Esme and she fell down in Emmett's arms, or when Carlisle was so shocked that he went blank sitting around doing nothing, when Rosalie, or when Rosalie blamed him for taking her sister for a stupid contract that could wait until the next day, much less when the Brandon lords collapsed leaning against each other.

She stayed with him when he entered the morgue where he recognized the disfigured bodies of his brother and sister-in-law.

She was with him when in the privacy of the car he collapsed and wept over her shoulder like a 5-year-old child, cried for a long time, heartbreaking sobs that broke her soul, she hated to see her husband suffer, but she could not do anything to spare him the pain.

- Can you go with the girl? - he said moving away from her shoulder once he was calm enough to speak - everyone is too sensitive to see her and not cry in front of her.

- Baby, I do not think it is the most convenient, I have not even been able to spend more than 10 minutes with her alone.

- I know, babe, but, - he rubbed his face trying to disappear all traces of tears - were her parents who died Bells, she needs a known shoulder where she can vent… although the commander told me she is quite calm, better than the rest of the family.

- It's a girl, love, - she kissed his cheek - she still does not know what is really going on, poor dear, I will go and I will stay with her, call me if you need me, no matter how absurd it seems to you, you know that I love you and I will be there for you all the time.

- I know, I will call you when all this is over

Bella kissed his lips repeatedly and then got out of the car and entered the police station where social services were taking care of the girl.

Upon entering the office that was told was her niece, a small blond hair ran to her ignoring the older woman with whom she draws.

Since Paulette was a baby she had loved being with Bella, the times that Bella had loaded her, could be counted with the fingers of one hand and they had excess, she did not like babies and Alice had had that very present, for that reason she did not leave his daughter with her or Edward, but now she could not take her away, the girl needed to be consoled after what had happened in less than 24 hours.

- Aunt Belly

Bella hated to call her that way, she had told Alice more than once, but it seemed she did not care because the girl kept calling her the same.

- I am Dr. Muran, - the woman presented herself, taking her briefcase from the desk - since you have arrived, I will retire to speak with Mr. Cullen's attorneys.

Bella nodded and saw the woman leaving with the girl attached to her waist, she did not even know that Jasper and Alice had lawyers who would have issues to resolve after their death.

- What do you think if we sit down and continue drawing?

Paulette nodded and taking Bella's hand went back to the little table where sheets and colors awaited them, Bella sat cross her legs which Paulette took as an invitation to sit on her lap, Bella sighed, but did not take her off.

- Do you think I can leave this in my dad's grave?

- I think so, - Bella answered seeing the drawing of three little monkeys holding hands in the middle of a garden with flowers and a huge rainbow crossing the sky from end to end.

Several hours later Bella was on her way to home with Paulette in the back seat, the family had disappeared inexplicably, although if she were to be honest, she felt sorry for the girl who would have to endure her gaudy aunt and two neurotic grandmas who could not control themselves, God forgives her, but she did not think she could bear the cries of her mother-in-law's lament.

- Aunt Belly? - She called her looking at the window.

- What happens?

- Will I sleep in your house?

- I do not think so, Rosalie will come for you at any time.

But as the hours passed and the night came, Bella wondered if Rosalie was really going to go for the girl.

She was so relieved when she saw Rosalie's old truck parked next to Edward's sports car at the entrance of her house.

Upon entering the house, Paulette stopped eating cookies and ran to embrace Rosalie, Bella noticed hoy decayed Edward was, but did not say anything in the presence of Rosalie.

- You already have the girl, now get out of my house - Edward said, walking to the kitchen without seeing any of the three

- Your husband is…

- Shut up and get out of my house - Bella interrupted her, following Edward.

The door closing, as well as Paulette's high "goodbye" was the last thing Bella heard before seeing Edward taking the tequila horse and serving himself another.

- Love…

- She's a bitch.

- Rosalie? I know

- She's blaming me - he said incredulously-, Jasper was using the company's car for finnish non-work.

- What do you mean?

- Jasper had not gone through any contracts to the office, was not even on a road that will connect to the office

- So?

- The funeral expenses are not borne by the company, much less for Alice.

- She knows that?

- Of course, she went to shout me at the office that it was our fault they were dead and all my attempts to cover the real reason went down the drain, Jasper had been working on the company for only a few months, I'm not even sure they are going to give them a pension to Paulette.

- And Rosalie thinks that everything's your fault, right? That her exaggerations do not bring consequences and that Alice and Jasper are innocent in all this… She's a bitch.

- She is, I already took charge of the funeral services, although it will be not be the great thing as Rosalie wanted, shit, she wanted a fucking monument to Alice.

- Exaggerated as always… tomorrow will be the funeral? And I think you should stop drinking

- I'm depressed Bella

- I know baby, but filling your liver with alcohol is not the solution, come on, let's take a bath in the jacuzzi, it will help you to relax, even if it's a little.

Edward did not refuse the offer and followed her with the wheel in his hand.

The next few hours he let himself be pampered by Bella who cleaned his tears and kissed him repeatedly until he controlled himself. When they finally got into bed it was after three in the morning, but Edward was calmer and could sleep falling asleep hugging his wife's body.

Bella took longer to fall asleep, she did not know what would be waiting for them tomorrow, but no matter what, she was for Edward even when the whole family blamed him for Jasper's irresponsibility, leaving during a storm in the company car and without sure it was just his fault, Bella was not going to say it out loud unless they made Edward feel bad again.
