Chapter 10: I built you a home in my heart

EPOV

After dinner, a teacher needed me at school because of a class representative meeting. Somewhere in the two month blur the elected me as the class representative which was quite boring. So I went to school and got the papers for the others from our class. After the meeting I was just catching up with some of the others who where there when my cell rang. I forgot I took it with me. It said that Rose was calling me. I quickly picked up, knowing Rose only called if something was wrong.

'Hello Edward? Where are you?' She asked Immediately.

'I'm at school? Why?' I asked warily.

Okay, but could you come home really fast?' She sounded anxious.

'Why? What's wrong.' I asked now fully worried.

'It's Bella!' As soon as her name left her lips I closed my phone and ran outside to my car, quickly starting the engine and raced of back to Bayham. As soon as the parking came in sight, I parked and jumped out of my car and ran up the stairs to my room people stared after me but I didn't care about that.

Once I reached our room, I noticed that everyone was in there. Emmett holding Rose and Jasper cradling Bella's frame to his chest. Carlisle looked worried and Esme had tears streaking down her face. I wanted to run to Bella and take her in my arms, but something white caught my eye. I picked it up en skimmed it over. It was a letter from Andrew!

I quickly took Bella from Jasper and gave them the paper.

'Bella, it's alright I'm here. I won't let him hurt you!' I whispered to her, she looked up at me and hugged me tightly. I saw jaspers face pale and Alice rushing to him. He gave the letter to Carlisle and said:

'He's back, I just hope it won't be too late!'

I stayed with Bella clutched tight to my chest. She had calmed down but was still scared as if he had come and said all that to her in person. After midnight everyone left, Jasper was reluctant to leave but Alice persuaded him to leave so he could get some rest and promised him they would come back first thing in the morning.

I left Bella for a bit to change my clothes. When I came back she was dead asleep.

I watched her as she slept and vowed to myself to never let anything or anyone hurt her. She was to precious to me to leave. I would never leave her only when she wanted me to, or if it was for her own benefit. Although I don't think she would let me leave. If you had asked me if I would ever fall in love when I first came here I would say no, because I was closed off from everything. But Bella made me see that you can't bottle everything up inside you, you had to open up and let people in to get over what ever happened in the past. Now I could only hope that everything would work out with Andrew in the end. I pushed a stray strand of hair out of her face, she grabbed my hand tightly before mumbling in her sleep. I laid down next to her and tried to get some sleep, but found that hard after everything that had happened in the last hours that had passed. I began thinking what would happen after everything was over and Andrew locked up again. Maybe Rose and Emmett could go live alone and take us with them, we could go to college together and be a happy family. With that thought I fell asleep.

I woke up from screaming. Bella was writhing beside me and screaming her lungs out.

'NO DON'T KILL THEM, ANDREW PLEASE DON'T KILL THEM I'LL DO ANYTHING!'
I quickly sat up and started shaking her, she was having bad nightmares and I couldn't let her sleeping like that. I was afraid, Bella was traumatised I wondered if she would ever get over this.
'Bella wake up love, you need to wake up. Bella please.' I pleaded with her to wake up and after a while she opened her beautiful brown eyes filled with tears. It broke my heart to see her like this. She had taken a home in my heart and I never wanted her to go no matter what. I took her in my arms and kissed her head whispering soothing words in her ear. I heard the door opening silently and Esme's head peeking in. 'Is she alright?' I heard her concerned voice ask. I looked at her and nodded.
'She's alright but I think the nightmare may occur again.' She nodded and left again, although she looked reluctant to leave.

'I'm sorry Edward, you can go back to sleep now.' This was the first time she spoke and I was relieved when she looked up at me. Tears still brimmed her beautiful eyes.
'Bella I'll stay up until your back asleep. Don't worry I wont leave you, I never will!' She hugged me tight and I lay us down on the bed stroking her hair softly, hoping something good could happen in the next few days.
