Chapter Twelve
The next morning I woke up, my body refreshed but my brain muddled. My head ached with exhaustion and it took a while before I remembered the events of the day before. Then it all came back and I shot up from bed and ran down stairs still in my pajamas. Mason and Mom were already there, sipping coffee and reading the newspapers.
"Mom, Grandpa, we gotta go see Edward! Did he wake up yet? Did Alice call? Is he out of the hospital? What time is it? Come on, we have to go!" I said all in one breath. Mason and Renee exchanged amused glances as they took in my bedraggled appearance.
"Now, Bella, calm down," Renee said soothingly, "You need to rest dear, and then you can go see Edward." I shook my head frantically. "No, Mom we have to go, it's my fault he's even in the hospital in the first place. Besides, I'm totally fine now. I just have to be there when he wakes u-" Before I could finish the sentence, Mom slapped her hand around my mouth.
"Bella," she said rationally, "Edward isn't awake yet, honey but if you really are okay, you can bathe and get dressed and I'll drive you over there okay?"
I sighed and managed to calm down. I nodded and headed back upstairs, earning an amused look from Mason. I stuck my tongue out at him before climbing up the stairs but not before hearing him chuckle and say, "Don't worry Renee, something tells me she's gonna be her old self very soon." I grinned at that and headed to the shower. The warm water did wonders for my knotted muscles and I finally felt relaxed. I shampooed my hair with my favorite strawberry shampoo and lathered myself in body wash. I felt clean and refreshed for once. I hadn't realized that since yesterday I had felt strangely dirty like if Jacob's touch had sullied my body with his slimy kisses and proclamations of love. I felt as if he had turned into something ugly and evil and I just wished that he would soon be found and once and for all taken away to some place where he couldn't hurt me or anyone else for that matter.
I climbed out of the shower and wrapped myself in a huge soft white towel and swathed my head in another towel. Before I did anything else though, I plopped onto my bed and grabbed my Z3. I dialed Alice's cell quickly. She picked up on the first ring.
"Bella," she said tiredly, "he's not awake yet."
I sighed, "How did you know?" She laughed at that and said, "You're predictable."
"So then," I grumbled, "if I'm so predictable, what am I going to do next?"
She giggled and then said in an ominous voice, "I see…you heading over here in the next twenty minutes."
I was shocked. How had she known that? "You're psychic," I said, awestruck. She laughed again, "Nope, I just know you. See ya later." She hung up and I was shocked. Wow was I really that predictable? I shook it off and headed over to the closet I grabbed the first thing I saw. It was a purple tank top with gold links for straps and with a I wore a simple black skinny jeans. I slipped on my matching purple Converse and quickly applied lip gloss and eyeliner. The whole process was done in less than five minutes. I added gold chandelier earrings and a star chain to the mix. I brushed my hair as fast as I could and then sped downstairs. Renee wasn't there yet so I had to wait. After less than thirty seconds, I was yelling, "Mom, come on! We have to go!"
I heard her laugh as she finally descended the stairs. I met her half way and grabbed her hand. I dragged her over to the car and threw in the driver's seat.
"Well, somebody's in a hurry," she grumbled. I nodded as she started to drive. I was bouncing in my seat.
"Calm down, Bells," she said, laughing at me. I was acting like Alice, I knew, but I couldn't help it. I just had to see Edward, to make sure that he was going to be fine.
After what seemed like hours, we finally reached the hospital and as soon as Mom parked I was out the car. I didn't even bother to wait for her. I dashed to the secretary nurse station and asked, "What room is Edward Cullen in?"
"I'm sorry, Miss, but unless you're family, I can't give out confidential information like that," said a kind middle-aged nurse. She was jovially rounded and exuded a motherly sense. She had pink spots on her cheek and her twinkling blue eyes were honest and caring. But despite her obviously nice persona, I was frustrated with her and opened my mouth to argue with her when I heard a voice say, "Don't worry, Becky, I'll take it over from here."
It was Carlisle and as soon as I saw him I rushed over to hug him. "Carlisle, he's okay, isn't he?" I breathed frantically. He chuckled and said, "Yes Bella, Edward is perfectly fine."
"Is he awake?" I asked, hoping that he would be. He shook his head and I looked down disappointed. I heard Alice squeal, "Bella!" and felt her tiny frame hit me. She hugged me fiercely. "Don't worry," she whispered, "he's going to be okay." I nodded and whispered back, "Take me to him."
She nodded and with both Carlisle and Alice on either side of me, we went to see my love. We reached the room and Alice said, "We'll wait out here okay? Jazz and Rose went home not to long ago and Em's sleeping," she pointed to a figure slumped in the corner. "Esme went to get us some coffee," Carlisle added as I nodded. I slipped my hand onto the knob and turned it. I prepared myself to see Edward.
I opened the door and without looking up closed it. I took a deep breath before I turned to the cot where Edward lay. I opened my eyes and gasped. There he was, my wonderful boyfriend lying on the hospital cot before me. I rushed over to his side. He had some scrapes on his face and a scar above his left eyebrow. His right hand was wrapped in gauze and his stomach was wrapped in bandages but beside those differences he was perfectly okay. He was still the same Edward I'd fallen in love with. I grabbed his left hand; the one not wrapped in gauze, and held it to my face.
"Oh Edward," I sobbed as tears trickled down my face, spilling onto his hand, "I'm so sorry for all of this." I continued to weep silently until I felt a hand on my head.
"Bella," I heard my angel whisper and I looked up. He was awake and his green eyes sparkled with love and concern.
"Edward!" I whispered happily and hugged him tightly. He laughed and stroked my hair. We stood that way for a little while until Edward pulled me away to give me a kiss on the lips. What was meant to be a peck though turned into a heated kiss full of passion. We pulled away and he whispered my name again.
"I'm so sorry," I apologized.
He looked at me curiously, "Why do you keep saying you're sorry Bella?"
"This is all my fault," I whispered looking at him, "I'm the one who got you in here." A tear trickled down my face again and he wiped it away.
"Bella," he said firmly, "You know very well that this is not your fault. I was being stupid. I ran ahead of the police when I should've stayed with them. I was with them when they were coming to look for Jacob but I ran ahead of them so that I could find you before Jacob could do anything to you again. I started to shout your name but then I came across Jacob and we began to fight. You came in just when I thought that I was going to be dead for sure. The last thing I remember was telling you that I loved you."
I shook my head, "Edward, why did you run ahead? You could've avoided all of this if you just stayed put."
"I was being stupid," he said again but he looked at me his eyes filled with fire, "But I would do it again, you know. In a heartbeat. I will always sacrifice myself if it means saving you," he whispered. I kissed him.
"Edward, this is still my fault," I said, shaking my head, "If I hadn't just run away when I saw you and Tanya together, Jacob would've never got to me in the first place. Oh Edward, I'm so sor-" He cut me off with a kiss and when we pulled away, he said, "That's enough apologies from you, Missy. Now it's my turn."
I nodded meekly before I realized what he said. "Your turn?" I asked puzzled. What did he have to apologize for? This was all my fault.
"With Tanya; I should've handled it better," he said, shaking his head. I looked at him, "What exactly happened?" I asked curiously.
He shook his head again. "I should've known Tanya would've tried to do something like that. She was of course very pissed off when I dumped her and then she found out it was because I fell in love with you, well, she just went ballistic. How she even found out in the first place, I have no idea. Anyway Tanya has never liked you since you started school here since all the guys wanted you instead of her. She's never been spurned before so well, that just made her really mad. Anyway, she came over to our house and said she just wanted to talk. Stupid me, I gave her the chance and she just went up to my room in silence. Apparently, Alice saw her which is why she got upset and went outside when you saw her. Upstairs in my room now, Tanya was trying to convince me that we belonged together," he rolled his eyes tiredly and continued, "When she realized that I wasn't going to be with her anymore though, she tried seduction," he rolled his eyes again, "She jumped on me and pulled off my shirt. I was trying to get her off me when you walked in and saw what was going on. But you didn't give me a chance to explain before tearing out of the room."
I shook my head. I should've known better. Edward wasn't like Jacob, I thought, I should've known that. Tanya was just a jealous psycho and I knew that. Man, that was dumb of me. I did recognize Edward trying to pull her off but I had thought that was to get the clothes off. Now, I realized it was a defense mechanism. Hey, in my defense, it looked a hell of a lot like cheating so I couldn't blame myself for thinking what I did. But then I should have waited for an explanation. So in the end, I was kind of right and kind of wrong at the same time.
"Oh by the way, kudos on the bloody nose that you gave her," he said with a wink, "and I liked the parting comments too." He grinned at me and then suddenly looked troubled.
"I'm sorry, Bella," he said sincerely, "Really and truly sorry."
I hugged him and said, "I forgive you." He hugged me back fiercely.
"Ahem," someone cleared their throat. It was Emmett of course with Carlisle, Esme and Alice all grinning teasingly behind him. "Will the two lovebirds stop their love nest for a little while since we have other people in the room?" he announced. Edward and I blushed and pulled apart.
"Really," Emmett said shaking his head, laughing, "Can't you two control yourself?"
Edward glared at him and said, "Hark who's talking. Don't you and Rose do much worse things than that in public?"
Emmett laughed and nodded seriously, "Good to have you back, bro!"
Alice smacked his head and then skipped over to us. "Edward you really need to stop acting hero you know? Bella's a big girl and I'm sure she had it all under control," she chirped, grinning.
Edward glared at her too and pulled me closer. He countered, "I don't care. I will always be there to take care of Bella so deal with it."
"Seriously, Superman," Alice said, rolling her eyes, "You gotta give up the cape some day." Everyone laughed and Edward was attacked with hugs. He kept one arm around my waist though and I kept my hand on him at all times. We both just needed to make sure that we had each other.
Later on Jasper and Rose showed up along with Renee who had met them on their way. "After someone so rudely left me," she said fake glaring at me as she explained to the Cullens. They all laughed and before we knew it, the day was gone.
"Time to go home, I'm afraid," said Carlisle apologetically, "Only two people of the immediate family can stay overnight." We nodded and said goodbye to Edward and left with Jasper and Rose. I promised Edward that I would visit every day until he was discharged which Carlisle said would be in two weeks.
Renee and I drove home in silence. I was so glad that Edward was okay and that we had worked everything out. I was going to make Tanya pay for that stunt though. After Edward was better and out of the hospital, he would help make her pay. I was sure the rest of the gang would want in on it too.
It was dark by the time we reached home and I went up to my room after checking in with Mason and saying goodnight to Mom.
I fell onto my bed, suddenly exhausted. I stripped off my clothes and changed into my pajamas. I slipped under the covers and was just about to pull out my iPod when my phone rang.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Bella," said my angel, Edward, "Alice gave me back my phone."
"Yay!" I celebrated. He chuckled and we began to talk about random things like if nothing had ever happened. Finally Carlisle busted us and took away the phone.
"Hi there, Bella," he said.
"Hi Carlisle," I mumbled, blushing.
He chuckled, "Okay now, Bella, both you and Edward have to go to sleep now. You will see each other tomorrow okay?"
I heard Edward protest; "Dad!" but Carlisle shushed him. "Yes, Carlisle. Bye," I said, still blushing. I hung up and settled back into bed.
I started to pull out my iPod again when my phone rang once again. Edward had probably gotten back his phone and was sneaking a call to say goodnight.
I giggled as I answered, "Yes, Edward?"
Instead of hearing him chuckling, I heard nothing but silence on the other end of the phone.
"Bella."
I almost dropped the phone.
It was like déjà vu all over again.
But this time it wasn't Jacob calling.
It was my dad.
"Bella," Charlie said again, "Bells, you there?"
"Don't you ever call this number again," I whispered dangerously as I hung up the phone.
I didn't even give him a chance to say anything again. How had Charlie gotten my number? How had Jacob gotten my number? I realized now that I had never found out. Someone was giving them information but who? Angela, Rebecca and Rachel would never; I was sure of that. Unless Renee had told someone…but who could she have told? She had no one in Forks that she was close to. So it couldn't be through her. It had to be through me. I wondered if my girls could've possibly told anyone.
I had to know. I dialed Rebecca's cell first. "Hello?" she answered. "Becca, hold on, conference now."
I dialed Angela's second and told her the same thing. Lastly, I conferenced in Rachel.
"Right everybody there?" I asked.
"Yup," Rebecca said.
"Yep," Rachel chimed.
"Uh-huh," Angela answered.
"Hey, Bells, long time no hear from," said Rebecca.
"Ditto," Rachel answered.
"Have you forgotten all about us, dearie?" Angela asked worriedly.
"Guys, I haven't forgotten about you," I said quickly. "Rach, Becca, where's Jacob?"
"Oh," they both said at the same time.
"Um, Bella, about him," Rachel began nervously.
"We don't know where he is!" Rebecca blurted out.
"What happened, guys?" I asked them, wondering how come they didn't know.
"Rebecca, you tell her," Rachel said.
"Well," Becca began, "Bells, he left. We don't know where he went. Dad's gone ballistic trying to find him. We wanted to call you as soon as he left because we think he's found out where you are. We wanted to but since we weren't sure if he really found you, we didn't want to worry you."
"That's okay, girls, but what exactly happened? When did he leave?" I asked.
"After about a week since you left, Jacob seemed to get tired of Leah. He broke up with her in front of the whole school. Despite all that she's done with him, I can't help but feel sorry for her. She was so broken when he did. She hasn't even been in school since." I felt sorry for Leah; she must really be hurting if she found out Jacob was only using her. Becca continued, "Anyway, he broke up with her on Monday and then he spent the rest of the week, lying low. We don't even know where he was going. Angela and Rachel tried to follow him but they lost him. He kept coming home late and the only time we ever saw him was at school. Anyway, it was Friday at lunch when he went missing. Angela says that she saw him at fifth period on his phone by his locker. Ang, tell her what you heard…"
"Hey there, Bells," she said. "Anyway I didn't hear anything but I saw him ask "Really?" and whatever the person said made his face light up. He snapped the phone shut and then threw a bag of clothes in his bag. Then he headed to the parking lot and got in his car and drove away," Angela finished.
Rachel chimed in, "That was the last anyone saw of Jacob since. He's been gone since Friday and today's already Tuesday. That's five days already. Dad's been going crazy looking for him. He left without a word to anyone. We have no idea where he is."
I felt sorry for them. They were obviously worried and Jacob had left without a word. Didn't he realize how much his family loved him? I sympathized with Billy. At least I could tell them. "Um guys, I know where he is. Well, where he was at least on Sunday and Monday. He came here." They gasped and I started to fill them in on the story.
Rachel and Rebecca went crazy with anger when I told them about the kidnapping.
"Wait, you mean to say, that Jacob kidnapped you?" Rachel seethed.
"And for two days?!" Rebecca asked angrily.
"Well, technically it was one day since he nabbed me Sunday evening and I was rescued Monday afternoon," I said, trying to lighten their darkened moods. It didn't work though.
"I swear to God, Bella, if I ever see that bastard again, I will murder him for you," Rachel fumed.
"And I will help," Angela answered equally angry.
"Same here," Rebecca chimed in, seething.
"Guys, you and everyone else," I said before I continued my story. When they heard about the Cullens and Hales, they were happy that I'd found such good friends. It seemed to calm them down and they gushed about how cute Edward sounded.
"Ooh Bella, you've found someone finally worthy of you!" Rebecca said, sounding genuinely happy.
"Ooh, he sounds dreamy," Angela gushed.
"Wait what would Ben say?" I asked jokingly.
"Hey, can't a girl dream?!" she teased back.
"Bells, I'm so glad you have such great friends down there. We have to meet them someday!" Rachel said.
"Maybe someday you may," I said, imagining the meeting. Then I remembered the reason I had been calling.
"Guys," I said seriously, "do any of you have an idea how Jacob found me in the first place?"
"No," Rebecca and Angela said in unison. "I never said anything," they both said again.
I realized Rachel hadn't said anything. "Rach?" I asked, "Did you say anything?"
"Oh no," I heard whisper in horror as some realization hit her. "Oh Bella, I'm so sorry!"
"Rach? What happened? Did you tell someone?" I asked.
"Y-yes, oh my god, Bella, I'm so sorry, I told Paul by accident. It slipped out during one of our conversations but I made him promise not to tell," she said, sounding close to tears, "But then you know how Paul is. He probably told Jacob to get back at me when we were fighting. Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god," she said over and over again.
"I'm so sorry, Bella," she whispered, crying.
"Oh dear," I said. Paul was the one who had told Jacob. I couldn't be mad at him though. That was how Paul was. He would do anything in his anger to get back at someone he was mad at. He was hotheaded and didn't think things through thoroughly. He probably hadn't known what Jacob would do. He didn't know Jacob's other side. He just knew the Jacob who was there for him whenever he needed to vent. I guessed that he had probably repaid Jacob by telling him where I was. Paul hadn't known that I might've been hurt. He most likely thought that he was doing the right thing.
"Um, can someone have a talk with Paul please? Before he tells anyone else?" I asked them.
"Yeah, I'll talk to him Bells," Rebecca said angrily.
"Don't blame him though guys. He didn't know what would happen. He most likely thought he was doing a good thing so go easy on him, Beccs," I warned.
"Angela, I'm putting you in charge of Becca so that she doesn't do anything irrational okay?" I said to her.
"Yeah Bella," she answered.
"Now, Rach, don't worry about it okay? I know you didn't do it intentionally. It's not your fault. I forgive you," I said.
"I'm sorry, Bells," she said again.
"Hey, hey, hey enough apologies. I know it was a mistake. Now, stop beating up yourself!" I scolded lightly. She laughed a little.
"Um guys, I think he told Charlie too," I added. "Just tell him not to tell anyone else, okay?"
They agreed. We talked a little while longer before hanging up.
As for Charlie, well he couldn't do anything drastic like Jacob. He just wanted me to forgive him. I couldn't though. Not after what he'd done to my mom. Seeing her like how she was… that was unforgivable. Charlie had hurt me and my mom. He had made me feel like I wasn't good enough for him and that had hurt too much. Tears welled up in my eyes as I thought about him.
No, I thought, no more. I didn't want to think about Charlie anymore. It hurt too much. He was no longer my dad. He'd betrayed me and my mom and for that, I would never forgive him.
I couldn't.
$~*^*~$
The next two weeks with Edward at the hospital flew by quickly and before I knew it, he was ready to be discharged. It was a Friday afternoon in early March when he came home. Alice prepared a welcome home party for him though he had told her no.
Like she would've listened, I thought that evening as I helped her with the banner and balloons, the pixie would never give up a chance to have a party.
Alice had made Emmett, Rosalie, Jasper and I stay home from going to the hospital to pick up Edward so that we could help her prepare the party. Apparently she had invited the entire school to come.
"Alice," I groaned, "why did you invite so many people?" I watched as food for two hundred was being distributed on the tables.
She looked at me. "Bella! It's a party! You have to have everyone here!" she exclaimed.
"Are Tanya and her little droids going to be here too?" I asked. She nodded sullenly, "I didn't invite them but I'm more than sure they're going to crash. Hopefully, I'll be able to get Emmett and Jasper to throw them out," she perked up at the end.
"Hey Jazz, Em!" I called, "Will you dispose of Tanya and her pod people if they crash for us?"
They stopped their task of bringing in tables to look at me. They flashed million dollar smiles at me and said, "Of course." They flexed their muscles impressively and the female caterers swooned and smiled flirtatiously as they looked on. Alice and Rose glared at them and they went away scared. I grinned at my friends.
By five, the place was done and we stood admiring our handiwork. The place looked great. A banner saying, "Welcome home, Edward," was hanged over the fire place and balloons and streamers hung everywhere inside the house. Jasper had picked out the music and we were all going to take turns being the DJ.
As I stood admiring the place, I was suddenly grabbed by Alice and Rose and pulled up the stairs. They threw me into Alice's closet and I was forced into clothes I hadn't even looked at. It was a black halter corset and a white flowy skirt that ended right above my knees. I had on ankle boots and on my arms was gold bangles and huge gold hoop earrings adorned my ears. I was thrown in front of the make up station and they applied mascara, eyeliner, eye shadow and sheer pink lip gloss. A dash of blush on either side of my cheeks and I was done before I knew it.
Alice pushed me in front of the mirror and I have to admit, I looked really good. I hugged them and then we set onto their appearances. Soon we were all finished. Alice had on a black and pink mini dress that hugged her tiny frame beautifully. Rose was in a vinyl suit with a red halter top and red skirt that hugged the curves nicely. It ended right above her knee and had a slit on the side that ended in middle thigh.
People had already started entering the party and Edward was due to arrive soon. We descended from the staircase fashionably late and all eyes were on us. Jasper and Emmett's eyes bugged out when they saw their girls and immediately they were at their sides. I took over deejaying for the while whilst my friends danced to the fast beat music.
I saw Alice get the call from Carlisle to warn that they were coming. I stepped out of the DJ zone and waited at the front door for Edward to come in.
Everybody was silent waiting for the guest of honor to come.
Then the doors opened and I saw my love. His stomach had been almost completely healed and his arm was better. He was wearing a dark blue dress shirt and pants and he looked great. His eyes flew to me at once and his eyes bulged as he took in my outfit. I flew into his arms first and he hugged me back fiercely. We pulled back and kissed. This time we controlled ourselves and then I passed on my guy to the rest of our friends. I stayed by his side though moving with him.
After he had greeted everybody, he pulled me aside and said, "Didn't I tell Alice not to do this?"
I laughed and shrugged, "You honestly thought she would listen?" I laughed back and then grabbed me. "I love you," he said in my ear.
Just then I spotted Tanya and she saw Edward and started to come over. She was in a tight black dress that hugged her...er...assets perfectly. On her nose was a bandage from when I had broken her nose. "Brace yourself," I whispered to Edward who hadn't noticed her yet, "Something wicked this way comes..."
He looked at me then finally spotted Tanya. He got a mischievous look on his face and before I knew it, my lips were on his and we started making out right in front of her.
I heard her shriek, "Eddie!" and stomp away where she proceeded to leave through the door. Edward and I pulled away to see the grand finale. I saw Emmett grin in anticipation as she went to open the door.
Tanya flung the door open only to have tons of green goo dropped all over her. She shrieked and everyone looked at her before bursting into laughter. Even her croonies, Victoria and Irna, couldn't help laughing at the sight of their leader humiliated. She tried to grasp the door again to leave but this time, feathers fell and stuck all over her. She looked like a spring chicken and everyone just laughed harder. She kept trying to get up but she was slipping in the goo and she looked like an ice skater with no ice skates.
Alice, Jasper, Rose and Emmett were all holding their sides in fits of laughter. Edward and I grinned at each other and Tanya shrieked once more before finally managing to get up and left.
He grinned, "Wanna dance?"
"Sure," I said, smiling. We danced to five songs when finally we were all danced out.
"Let's go outside," he whispered and he led me to the back of his house. We strolled hand in hand talking about everything.
He led me through the woods at the back of the house into a moon lit clearing. It was gorgeous. When I had been running I hadn't paid attention to it. It was really breathtaking. We could still hear the music playing at the party.
"This is my meadow," he said as we settled down on the grass. "I come here to think every once in a while."
"It's beautiful," I said looking around. He gazed at me intensely. "You're beautiful," he whispered as he took me in his arms and kissed me. This kind of kiss was something I had never experienced. It started at the lips and then sank until it had saturated your bones. It was wonderful, amazing, every word that had meant something like that. I never wanted it to end.
We pulled away and I settled into his chest.
No, I thought, I never want this to end, as I wrapped my arms around him and felt him do the same.
He kissed my end and I closed my eyes as me and the man of my dreams gazed at the moon together.
This was my perfect ending. My fairy tale ending, I thought.
I loved Edward, he loved me.
I had the best family, the best friends and the man I loved irrevocably and unconditionally.
Everything was just simply….perfect.
