Chapter 28
Edward's POV
I had waited for Bella to return to me. I had tried to reach her on her phone but she didn't pick up.
Panicked struck thorough me, the admirer
No Edward, in case you've forgotten tonight is when he's going to show himself
Her words from earlier today went through my brain. I raced towards her house hoping my fears were foolish and she just didn't hear her cell. I parked up on the curb and saw Charlie's car there. The lights were still on.
I walked up the path and the door opened
"Edward, where's Bella"? He asked, he wasn't worried, he didn't know what's happened
"She's not here"
"No" he said confused
"O god" I ran a hand through my hair.
"Edward's what's wrong?" he had come out of the house
"Sir, Bella wasn't telling the truth to you about the roses and letters"
"What do you mean, they stopped after a couple of days of him sending her them"
"Sir" I reasoned I heard his thoughts he looks like he's about to pass out "The admirer didn't stop sending her the letters and roses. Bella thought it nest she didn't worry you. Please sir may I come in so I can show you some"
He nodded, he moved to the side so I could run.
I walked in her room, I smelt her sweet smell. I closed my eyes and inhaled it but there was someone else's a scent I didn't recognize. Him I snarled in my thoughts. I rushed to the draw where I knew she kept them. Charlie entered the room, his thoughts aware now something wasn't right.
"Here" I passed him the notes. He read them all, his fists clenched when he read the threatening notes.
"And you didn't tell me this" he snarled
"I'm sorry sir"
"Sorry doesn't cut it Edward" he rushed out of the room. I sighed he was right, I should have told him then maybe she would have been fine.
I heard Charlie phone everyone just to check she wasn't at there place. Obviously she wasn't.
Something clicked in my head
"Sir"
"What" he snapped rubbing his forehead
"When Bella went to Phoenix, she wanted to go there because she thought she might have known him there, well Renee said he wouldn't harm her, that It would end soon"
His eyes went wide
"Renee knew"
"Yes sir, she must have"
He started to dial her number. While I stepped outside and rang Emmett, knowing he was the closest
"What's wrong Eddie, need the sex talk again" he laughed I rolled my eyes
"Emmett, Bella's missing"
"WHAT!" He shouted down the phone "From that guy?"
"Looks like it" I replied turning my head to the door, I heard Charlie raise his voice slightly at Renee. "Look get everyone and we'll meet back home"
"Alright, later" he hung up and I sat down on the brick wall. My hands covering my mouth. Charlie came out
"She's shocked apparently" he scoffed "But she knew, she said his name is Matthew Hunnham"
"Matthew" I thought "I've heard that before…the Webbers"
"What?"
"Bella told me the Webbers had a cousin called Matthew when she told me, apparently when she was sin phoenix they met"
"Let's go"
We had arrived at the Webbers, just Charlie knocked my phone went off.
"One minute Charlie"
He nodded and entered the house. I saw the id ESME
"Mom?"
"Edward honey Alice called us, told us what you told Emmett, we're half way home, we'll be there in 3 hours"
"Mom we can handle this" I sighed
"Edward Anthony Masen Cullen, Bella is like a daughter to us, we're coming to help" she hung up. Note to self don't piss off Esme.
