"I'll kill him!" I heard Edward yell, and ran down the stairs as fast as I could. What I saw actually made me freeze. Everyone was holding onto Edward, keeping him from the door. So that's why Alice took off so fast.
"Let me go!" He snarled. "I will kill him!" He growled even louder. "No!" I screamed as loud as I could. Suddenly, everyone was staring at me. I felt my face grow hot, but I couldn't stop now. I had to calm him down. "If you kill him, it'll cause attention. It'll be a war between you and them, and then the Volterra would take notice! They would kill you Edward!" I exclaimed, stepping forward.
"I don't care!" He snarled, making me take back my step. I had never been afraid of him before today. But this.. I didn't know what to make of it. Whether he was angry with me, or Jacob…I couldn't tell for sure. "I care!" I yelled, stomping my foot like a two year old. I had to keep his attention somehow!
"Yes, Edward, he raped me! I can get over that if you're here! But, if you died.. I would die. I'd never get over losing you completely! It was my fault it happened anyways, so if you want to be mad, be mad at me! Just don't die because of me!" I shouted, wiping furiously at the tears that had betrayed me.
"No!" Edward yelled, making his way to me. He stood just inches away, and pointed a finger in my face. "This was not your fault! Do you understand me? Not your fault! He deserves a fate worse than the death I will give him for what he's done to you!" He demanded.
I touched his face softly, and pleaded to him with my eyes. "Edward, please. Please don't him. We'll stay away from him, from all of them! Just please, please don't do this." I whispered, as more tears began to fall. He wiped them away, and stared lovingly back at me. "Bella, I …"
"Please, Edward! Swear to me you won't touch him. That you won't go near him!" I begged, cutting him off before he could try and persuade me. After a few moments of silence, he sighed heavily. "All right, Bella. I won't touch him, I swear. But, if he comes near you, or this house, I will kill him." He agreed. I smiled widely, and hugged him in thanks. I knew that wouldn't be a problem, Jacob was dumb, but he wasn't suicidal.
The next few weeks were pretty quiet. Edward stayed locked in his room, constantly. The same for me. I came down to eat, but that was about it. My appetite and failed to return, but Alice and Rose continued to bring me food. I never thought I'd see the day when Edward stayed locking in his room because he hated me so much. That was the only reason I could see that he wouldn't come out. But, to go to such degrees just to avoid me was ridiculous. I had a plan, but I couldn't let Alice know it, so I tried my hardest to not decide anything. Jasper came into my room a couple times a day, asking me why I felt this way or that way. I lied, every single time, but I had a feeling he was catching on. After all, I felt guilty for lying; of course he'd feel that. Alice came in this morning, dropped off my food and said the family was going hunting for the weekend. They couldn't stand the depression any longer.
I was relieved when they finally left. I wasn't sure I'd be able to keep up this façade any longer. I had been sneaking things to my truck every time they went hunting, or Alice forced them to go shopping. I thought she'd notice that, but apparently I was better at this not deciding when I've already decided than I thought. Actually, now that I think about it, Jasper was harder to convince than Alice had been. He kept asking why I was always sick to my stomach, or sad, or afraid. I just told him I was thinking about the incident with Jacob. I sat at my desk, wrote them a note, and snuck out to my truck. If Edward heard any of it, he never showed it. The only reason I knew he was still there was because of Alice.
With a heavy sigh, I wiped my tears away, and started the truck. It had been six weeks. Six long weeks of carrying Jacob's baby. My stomach already had a little pouch, so it was good that I was going now. They'd figure it out soon enough, but I didn't want to be there when they did. Now that I was gone, Edward would talk to his family again, and they'd never have to see me.
