I have reached the conclusion that Bella and I have the worst luck as a couple.
We broke apart when Charlie opened the door, but my hand was still resting on the small of her back which seemed to draw Charlie's eyes and his face turned to an even deeper shade of purple with the vein in his forehead popping out. Time seemed to creep by as we stood there but neither of us was sure what to say but thankfully Bella spoke up and began to try and explain the situation at hand.
"Dad calm down, Edward just came by not even five minutes ago to drop off my coat which I left at the school when Jake grabbed me and dragged me out of the fair. He came through the front door, and the only reason we were up here is because…..is because I had Alice's notes from class and I asked him to help me find them. We were just saying good bye when you came in."
Bella finished, and held onto Charlie's stare to show that she was not backing down from this story. And I just stood there amazed; I mean when did Bella learn to lie so well? I glanced back to Charlie to see the rage somewhat dying from his eyes but his fury was nowhere near over.
"I want you out of my house right now, and if I ever see you near my daughter again you will be sorry. Now get your notes and get out of my house." I just nodded my head slowly, and squeezed Bella's side before dropping my hand just to let her know that I would always be there if she needed me.
I grabbed the first notebook I saw off Bella's desk just to keep up the pretense, before walking towards the door. Charlie and Bella followed me into the hallway, and half-way down the stairs I turned around to face Charlie once more. I wasn't going to let him separate Bella from me during this short time that I had left.
"All due respect sir, I love your daughter very much and no amount of threats will keep me away from her." I saw a smile spread across Bella's face before I turned again and made it the rest of the way out of the house.
As soon as I shut the door I heard the yelling begin, and I wanted nothing more than to go back in there and stand next to my angel and hold her hand, telling her everything will be alright. But I knew that would only make things much worse for her in the long run; however I couldn't make my feet move from their spot on the old steps.
"What am I going to do with Bella? That boy is bad and he only wants one thing from you, and once he gets it he won't look back."
"Dad things aren't like that with Edward and me! We love each other and we will be together!"
"Yeah, well what happens when he moves? Is he going to stay behind to be with you? No, he is going to move and I am sure after 10 minutes of being there he will find some pretty blonde and he will forget all about you, leaving your heart broken again."
"We will work something out…..his moving will not be the end of us. God dad, why can't you just let me be happy? Just because you never found true love doesn't mean I won't. I am going to bed; I can't look at you anymore."
"Good because you are getting up with me in the morning and going to LaPush. From now on your every waking moment will be monitored by either me or Jacob or Billy. Now go to bed."
The house then became quiet again……and my heart started to hurt. Charlie was going to make sure we never saw each other again, but what about Alice? He couldn't keep her away from Alice, could he? I didn't remember getting in my car or driving home or walking up to my room. All I remember is the pain that came with the thought of never seeing my sweet angel again.
I woke the next morning to the shrilling ring of my phone, which I had apparently forgotten to turn off last night when I came in. I didn't even look at the front to see who it was before I flipped the small silver cover open and let out a very groggy hello.
"Edward? I'm so sorry I didn't mean to wake you, I was just going to leave a message because I thought your phone would be off." Bella's soft voice flooded my ears making me sit up quickly grabbing my composure.
"No, its fine but Bella is something wrong? Its four in the morning, are you hurt?" I could barely keep my voice level; I became so worried that something had happened last night after I had left.
"I am fine Edward, calm down. I just wanted to call you while I could; dad is dragging me out to LaPush where I will be watched like a hawk by Jacob and his little friends. So I was just going to leave you a message saying that I love you and to not worry about me." I put my hand over my chest, feeling how fast it was going.
"Well I am very happy to hear your voice……and Bella I meant everything I said last night to you and your dad, I am not leaving you. I can't, because I love you so much."
"I know Edward. Well I have to go my dad is getting up, but I will talk to you later. I love you, bye." She said quickly before placing the phone back on the receiver. I laid my head back down on my pillow but I knew that there would be no way to go back to sleep now, not after hearing my sweet angel's voice and knowing that she was going to have to spend the whole day under the watchful eye of that dog, Jacob Black.
