I don't own Twilight! Really sorry the chapter took so long.

BPOV

I was scared senseless, I had never been interrogated. "It'll be ok." Nessie assured me.

"Thanks, Nessie." I mumbled. Carlisle told us that the hospital had to have the interrogation at the hospital, great. The ride was eerily quiet.

"Nessie? You know where to go for this?" Carlisle asked.

"Yeah. Down the hall, past the ER, and if I pass the OR waiting room I've gone to far." She recited.

"You are your mother's child." Carlisle chuckled. That was true; she knew the hospital like the back of her hand. "Were, here." He said as he pulled to the curb of the front doors.

"Come on, it'll only take 35 minutes at tops." Nessie said sliding out of the car. Thirty-five minutes!?! "Bail, I promise you that it will be ok." She kept reassuring me.

"Miss Cullen? What's wrong? Fall down?" a nurse asked as we walked down the hall. Nessie blew curls out of her face and put on a fake smile.

"No, nurse Stacy." She grinned. The nurse nodded in understanding. "God, why does every single flipping nurse assume I hurt myself when n I come here?" she asked angrily. "Bail, I know." She teased.

Baby u kno that I miss u

Baby girl and that's the issue

"Jake calling?" I asked.

"Uh-hu." She smiled.

Baby I kno that u like me

Souljaboytellem
Yeah u can be my boonie

"Hey, Jake. Two seconds." She still had her huge "Jacob" grin on. "Seth?" she asked, knowing the answer.

"Yep." I grinned. "Hey, Seth."

"Whatcha doin'?" Should I tell him? I don't think so, not yet. Nessie suggested.

"I'm getting questioned." I bit my bottom lip.

"About your dad?"

"Yeah. Can we talk about this later?" I asked.

"Sure." He huffed.

"Seth? Do I have to sing the "Don't worry! Be happy!" song?" I giggled.

"Nah." I could hear him chuckling. "Text later." He asked

"Sure." I agreed.

"Call." Nessie chided. "Ok, see ya." Sometimes I wish Seth and I were like that. Knowing when each other would call, and by surprise.

"Miss Gray? Ready?" how stupid, I'm about to get questioned, not really!

"Yes ma'am." I whimpered.

"Miss Cullen? We need you in here too." Thank god!

"Ok." Nessie actually seemed nervous.

"Take a seat." The nurse instructed. Robotically Nessie and I did as we were told. "Was your dad schizophrenic?" she asked.

"Not to the vest of my knowledge." I answered very robotic.

"Headaches?"

"Well, you know when your sick and you hold your head?" the nurse nodded. "Well, he held his head like that a lot." Why was that even relevant?

"Did he mumble when he did that?"

"No, he clenched his jaw."

"Interesting. Any physical outbursts?"

"To whom?" I asked slitting my eyes.

"To anybody."

"Yes, to me." I felt tears sting my eyes.

"Let me see." Robotically I rolled my sleeve up and faded blue-red-black rings were still visible.

"Does anyone know about this?"

"Yes. Two people." I was holding back tears.

"Who?" she pressed.

"Seth and Miss Cullen." I mumbled.

"Who's this Seth?" she asked as if Seth was doing this. "Boyfriend?" I don't know, I've never referred to Seth as my boyfriend.

"Not really, just a close friend."

"Hmm."

"Is something wrong?" I asked.

"No, but your mom doesn't know about this?" she asked seriously.

"No, she left when I was ten. She told my dad he needed help and that once his head was clean she would come back. She said she didn't want to burden a child to poverty because that was going to be her life with a child. I haven't seen her in five years." I was beginning to shout. "Sorry." I said with tears coming down my face.

"That's ok, Miss Grey. Your mom, what did she mean when she said 'when your head is clean'?"

"I don't know."

"Well, a guardian can sue you father for this, battery." She informed me.

"I wouldn't be able to pay for the fees."

"We would do that."

"Really?" I asked in disbelief.

"Yes, but we might loose. You see, we did some tests and your dad has schizophrenia." She admitted.

"So, his attorney can say that the schizophrenia caused him to do this and he didn't really know." I admitted sadly. "But he did, every time he hit me he said that was for future beatings, and that it was my fault that mom left."

"That's not true!" Nessie scolded.

"She's right." The nurse nodded.

"I want to sue." I decided. "I'm not going down without a fight."

"As you wish." She smiled.

"Thank you." She walked from behind the desk and hugged me. We walked out of the room to see Seth and Jacob waiting for us. I walked straight over to Seth and buried my head in his shoulder.

"What was is like?" he asked.

"Tense. My dad is schizophrenic. And I'm suing him for battery." His shirt muffled my voice.

"That's heavy." He said rubbing my back.

"Yeah, it was worth it."

"I'm sure it was." He said. "Come on Leah's waiting." He chuckled.

"Ok." Seth linked our fingers together and we walked out of the hospital with occasional glances. The car ride was slightly awkward with Leah being there.

"Ok, Cullen. Your stop. You to Black." Leah said not even giving Nessie a parting glance.

"Bailey, text me tonight." She hollered as Leah pulled away from the driveway.

"Kay!" I hollered back. On the ride back to Seth's house I rested my head on his shoulder. "How am I going to tell my grandma?" I whispered.

"I'll be there with you if you want." He assured me.

I hope you still feel small
when you I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

"She's callin' now." I informed him. "Hello, grandma." I was trying to not break down and cry because I knew she would be stunned. The phone call lasted for about an hour and a half. She was stunned at many things. The biggest one was that I was asking her to testify against her son.

Again really sorry about the delay, I am working on Unexpected Encounters and this to so bear with me. The story is going not the way I expected, it's far better!
