Protective Sister

(BPOV)

I couldn't believe my ears; the boy that I once called my friend would rather see me dead than like the Cullen's. I still cared for Jacob; his dad is best friends with my dad. My heart seemed to be falling apart; everyone I loved or cared for seemed to be hurting me in one way or another. I got up from the couch just in time to see Jacob break away from Sam, only to disappear into the forest. All of his friends left following close behind him except for Sam who was whispering something to Esme and the others. After he was finished he too turned toward the forest and was gone.

Turning from the window my eyes looked upon where Edward lay upon the bed broken. He was lying off toward one side of the bed leaving plenty of room for me. I pondered what might happen to 'us' if there was an 'us' when he would wake up. Yet, my mind told me I had him right now and for me to enjoy it. A smile crawled on my face as I limbed up on the big bed. At first I lingered toward the one side until my heart took over and I snuggled closer to Edward.

I was admiring his new battle scars when I heard 'Bella' fall as a whisper from his lips. My heart skipped not sure if he was still out of it or was he finally waking up. I waited for a few moments, but he didn't make anymore sounds. I had already gone to tracing his bite marks on his face and his arms. They were very light and soon would be very faint if not gone completely. Trying to be gentle I picked up his sore arm and moved it out so that I could snuggle even closer to him. There was no sound as I did this, so I laid down and allowed sleep to over take me. I was really exhausted and didn't know how I lasted this long. I guess it was because I was fighting a waging war of sleep.

Emmett and I busied ourselves while Carlisle worked on Edward. I knew Bella was safe, I mean Alice was in there and she wouldn't let anything hurt her. Plus I felt bad for Alice having to miss out all this time. She was closer to Bella than I was, but now I was. It's sad to believe that these last two months had changed my family so much. Emmett was just content on holding me in his big strong arms. I sure had missed him. My ears picked up Carlisle's bag closing – he was done. As he headed downstairs I also caught Jasper and Alice take their leave from Bella. She was finally alone with my brother.

I heard Sam and Esme talking so I started to get dressed, Emmett followed me. He had this big old grin on his face. As we exited the house I heard that dog tearing into Esme. Oh how I just wanted to kill that mutt! Sam was trying hard to get him back under control but with not luck. Then the dog said something he could never take back. He told us he would rather see Bella dead than like us. Emmett had his arms firmly placed n my shoulders to keep me in place-he knew me well enough to know what I wanted to do.

My dead heart hoped and prayed that Bella didn't hear his words, but her heart told me she had. Not only had she heard his words, but she also watched as the dog took off. I watched her as she watched the whole ordeal from Edward's room above the front yard. She didn't deserve this at all. Bella had been through much more than any human should have to endure. Yet, for Bella she would gladly endure this pain and suffering all out of her undying love for my brother.

I watched as Sam now took his leave, but at least his was on better terms than the mutt. I looked up to Edward's window to see Bella was gone. Probably back on the couch. I watched as Alice and Jasper came shooting out of the trees toward us. Emmett laughed at the sight of these two crazy vampires darting to and fro from the trees.

"Well let's all get inside the sun is going to be coming out shortly" she replied as she led the way into our home. I smiled finally- all of my family was home safe and sound; that included my pig headed brother and my little sister. All was well for the time being. Hopefully this peace would last for some time to get our lives back on track.

Just as Jasper and I had caught u to a herd of deer I had a vision. It was a good vision of Bella snuggling up to Edward as he recovered. I was glad that Rosalie and Esme came back to look after Bella. They went against Edward and protected her when he wouldn't. It broke my being not knowing if he would be the same or would things change. Jasper sensing my happiness decided to take his chances at tackling me to the ground.

"Smart Jasper, What if you had got dirt on my outfit? I'd be really mad at you, but lucky for you no dirt" I said as I brushed myself odd and began to stand up. I took my chance to attack him, but he side stepped me as I jumped at him.

"Oh darling, did you hurt yourself" he whispered in his sexy southern twang. I laughed and took off toward the house. We were close to the house when we caught sight of Sam as he broke through the clearing in front of us. He seemed to be a nice guy, but I'd have to wait to see what Esme and Rosalie say about him.

As we jumped up into the trees to play, once we got close enough to the others we started shooting to and fro in the trees until we came to them. Emmett just laughed at us, while Rosalie began to picture us crazy. I decided to let them have the sad news, "Well let's all get inside the sun is going to be coming out shortly" I stated as Jasper took my hand and began leading me into our home. When we all got inside everyone took a seat near their partner. I was leaning up against Jasper's knees sitting on the floor. Esme was seated next to Carlisle and Emmett sat across from us holding Rosalie in his arms.

"So I see the house is all fixed up" I said trying to break the silence in the room. Everyone's eyes turned to look at me.

"Well Esme did most of the work, while I went to school with Bella" Rosalie whispered as she smiled at Esme.

"You've been going to school Bella, How and why?" Emmett exclaimed trying not to sound too hilarious.

"Well to keep an eye on Bella of course. Bella got hurt to begin with by going with the Stanley girl to Port Angles. So to make sure Bella to make sure she would be safe I left Rosalie Hale and became Rosa McCarthy" she stated. I had to give it to her she still looked pretty even as a 'human'.

"How did you o about changing yourself" Carlisle responded looking lovingly at Esme.

"Well I dyed my hair, it lasts for about a month. I also used tanning cream, it lasts about three weeks. Now changing my eye color was tricky because of the venom in our system normal contacts dissolve way to fast to use them. So trying to think outside of the box I thought about using glass, and to my surprise they hold up very well to the venom in my eyes. I have several pairs made up if I lose them or they break" she stated almost absentmindedly while looking at Carlisle and Esme. I think she has done the best she could in the given situation that was given to her.

"So since we are all back, do you think Edward would want to go to school or not" Jasper asked leaning his hand on my shoulder as if he was asking me the question instead of the family.

"I don't know what he'll do, but to keep Aro's promise to Bella he will not be allowed to leave" Carlisle said as he looked around the room at all of us. He wasn't one who thought too highly of forcing someone to do something against their will, but he would be made to do so with Edward. Esme leaned over and gave him a small kiss on the cheek.

"He's going to be alright isn't he" whispered Esme looking first to her husband and then to me. I wasn't sure just yet.

"I'm not sure Esme. I haven't gotten anything about him. It's as if he's fighting all reasoning to come back, almost as if he has no will to live. His future is dark and murky" I uttered softly keeping my eyes from looking at anyone. Rosalie took a glance toward the stairs in her mind, she was trying to decide on whether to go check on Bella or to let her sleep. "Rosalie Bella's fast asleep. She won't be waking up anytime soon" I whispered to her knowing she heard me. She nodded her head and snuggled closer to Emmett. All we had to do know was sit back and wait to see what will happen.
