Okay, you know I love you when I'm writing a new chapter while I'm sick! I was laying in bed this morning trying to fall back asleep and this chapter came to me. It was not what I intended to do... but hey, now you get more chapters! Enjoy!
I'm not feeling well so I just want to thank you ALL for your reviews, faves and alerts. Now I checked and 387 people have this on alert... why aren't I getting 300 reviews!? :( Maybe I'll feel better if I get a shit load of reviews, and I NEED to feel better, I'm supposed to meet David Bromsted this weekend!

Chapter 26
EPOV
When Jessica turned around I was assaulted by her smell, a smell that I would know anywhere. I have spent the last month around Bella and everyday she smelt the same.
When Jessica couldn't give a logical explanation I saw red. I wanted to hurt something. She knew where Bella was, why the hell did she know where she was? If it wasn't for Mr. Weber I don't know what I would have done.
I dragged Jessica all the way to Mr. Weber's car and threw her in. When we made it to the police department I jumped out before the car was even in park, pulling her out of the car towards the front door.
The volunteer gave us a curious look. "Is something wrong?" He asked.
"I need to speak to Chief Swan, now." I said in stern voice.
"I'm sorry son, but he's at home. He's been up for almost 24 hours he needs to rest."
"Listen, if you don't get him down here now..."
"We think we have information on Bella." Mr Weber interrupted me. He put a hand on my shoulder trying to calm me down.
The volunteer looked back and forth between me, Jessica and Mr. Weber. Our serious expressions must have convinced us we were telling the truth. He picked up the phone and dialed a number.
"Chief Swan I'm so sorry to call you"
Pause.
"No sir we haven't found her yet. But there is a group here that said they may have information on her whereabouts." He looked up at Mr. Weber and he nodded in confirmation.
Pause.
"I'm not sure, I'll ask." He put the phone down and looked up at us. "How did you get this information?"
I rolled my eyes. "Tell chief Swan that my name is Edward Cullen." He nodded and put the phone back up to his ear.
"The kids name is Edward Cullen, he says he has information."
Pause.
"Yes sir. I'll see you a little bit." He hung up the phone and looked back at us. "He's on his way. Take a seat till he gets here."
We sat down in the small waiting room. Charlie had recently found out about Bella and I dating, we thought he would be mad, but he seamed okay with everything. He was however a little more concerned with Bella's sleepovers with Alice. Apparently he believed I wouldn't get him out of bed if I didn't think it was worth it.
After about 5 minutes Charlie came walking in looking like hell."Edward, tell me you have something solid for me?" He asked
"I think Jessica here knows where Bella is." I stated pulling her out of her chair. She will definitely have a bruise later.
"And how do you know that?" He asked me. Okay, this will be interesting to explain.
I sighed. "She smells like Bella, and when I asked her about it she lied about it and she couldn't give me a straight answer." He looked at me like I was retarded.
"Chief Swan, I was there, she acted really sketchy about the whole thing. I think Edwards right." Mr. Weber spoke up from behind me.
"Alright, I'll question her." Charlie said. He headed towards his office and I followed, bringing Jessica with me. We walked into his office and I sat her down in one of the chairs. I started to shut the door when he spoke up. "Edward, I have to question her alone. Go back out and sit with Mr. Weber."
"What!? No, I want to know whats going on!" I almost shouted.
"Edward, I know you care a lot for Bella, but you can't be here right now. Now go sit with Mr. Weber." I nodded my head and left his office. I sat down next to Mr. Weber and texted my family letting them know what was going on. Then I sat and waited, feeling completely useless.
Charlie's POV
"Okay Miss. Stanley, do you have anything you'd like to tell me?" I asked calmly. There was no use getting in her face. I had to stay calm like this was any normal person, and not someone who potentially hurt my daughter.
"I don't know what Edward is talking about. I saw Bella at school right before she went missing."
"And you haven't changed clothes? Or taken a shower since then?" I asked calmly.
"Well... yes but, I probably just have the same shampoo she has."
"How do you know you saw her right before she went missing?"
"Well... I... um... She went missing right after gym class right? Well I'm in her gym class."
"Where you her partner in class that day?" I asked her
"No." She said shrugging her shoulders.
"Then how do you explain smelling like my daughter today?"
"I don't know. I don't understand how you cam smell like someone." She argued.
"Well Miss. Stanly Edward spends a lot of time with my daughter, and if he thinks you smell like her, and if thats weird to him. I'm gonna believe him." I sat back at my desk and watched her. She was fiddling with her fingers and trying to look at anything but me. I decided to try a different approach.
"How old are you Miss. Stanly?"
"17."
"When will you be 18?"
"In a few months, why?"
"Do you realize that by law if you get charged for any crime they will consider you an adult?" Her eyes widened and I continued. "You will go to jail if convicted, not the the delinquent center, or probation and community service. But you will serve time in a womens correctional facility"
"But I'm not 18 yet." Got her.
"Well Miss. Stanley, I know you didn't do this alone, if you tell us where to find Bella, and who all is involved then I will suggest to the DA that they go easy on you, and not charge you as an adult." She nodded her head and started to speak.
BPOV
It feels like I've been here for days, I'm hungry I haven't showered, or brush my teeth and I have to pee. James keeps staring at me as if I'm something to eat.
"Umm..." I choke out. "I have to go to the bathroom." James rolls his eyes and walked towards me. He uncuffed me from the bed and brought both my wrists in front of me and cuffed them together.
"Lets go." He yanked me off the bed hard and pulled me out of the bedroom. I tried to look around, to see if I can find any clues to where I am, but He was walking too fast. He shoved me into the bathroom but kept the door open. At least he gave me enough courtesy to turn around.
After I felt better I decided that I can't stay here any longer. I have to get away, but how? I got it, sing. I don't remember everything Sandra Bullock said, but I remember groin and nose, that should be enough, I hope.
James pulled me out of the bathroom and turned me to face him. My body started to shake as he pulled me flush with his body. He pushed his hips into mine showing me how 'happy' he was. I felt like I was going to vomit. Now or never Swan.
He had a tight grip on my shoulders and I brought my right knee up and kneed him as hard as I could. He immediately let me go and bent over. When he looked up at me I rammed my palm up his nose, hearing a loud crunch. Blood started going everywhere, I turned and ran from him.
I heard him fall over in pain as he was yelling at me. I ran down the stair preying that Jessica or Lauren wasn't around. I flung open what I assumed was the front door and came face to face with a shit load of trees. Great, Lauren wasn't lying. Who cares Bella, just run!
Luckily they hadn't take off my shoes. It was harder to run in the forest with my hands handcuffed together, I fell a few times but I kept getting up and running.
It wasn't long before I heard someone running behind me.
"Keep running you bitch, I like a good chase" James yelled.
"Shit" I whispered. And just as my luck would have it I tripped over a big tree root. I heard James laughing behind me as I tried and failed to get up. My ankle burned and I tried again to stand, My ankle couldn't hold my weight and I fell again.
I felt James pull me up by my hair. "You're are going to regret that bitch." When I was in an upright position he started walking my back towards the cabin. I could see the cabin through the thick trees when I heard it. The unmistakable sound of a siren.
They found me!
"Son of a bitch!" James yelled and yanked me back into the woods. He pushed me up against a tree and covered my mouth with his disgusting hand.
We were able to watch as my dads cruiser and several other cars pulled up to the cabin. Tears started to flow down my eyes, If only I had stayed there, They would have found me.
"Well looks like you did me a favor my little whore." His nose ran along my neck and I shuddered against his touch. I turned back towards the cabin and saw Edward.
"MMMMMMM" I screamed as loud as I could. I bit down on Jame's hand as hard as I could and screamed when his hand released my mouth.
As soon as the sound released from my mouth it was stopped by Jame's other hand. I looked over at the cabin. Edward was standing still, but started to move again when he didn't hear anything else. No, no no!
"You are going to pay for that you little bitch." James pulled me flush against his body again and held me tight so he could drag me. I took one last look at the cabin and my rescuers as James took me deeper into the woods.
