Chapter 32

B'POV

Complications in the Mix!

As I hung up with Edward, I couldn't stop the small meaningful words from tumbling out my mouth. "I love you, Edward."

Nessie, who hadn't seen me cry very often, reached up and caught a few tears with her hand. "Its ok, Bellie. I think he loves you too."

I smiled sweetly pushing her hair from her dirty face. "Want to call your parents?" She nodded excitedly. I could almost see her jumping up and down,clapping her hands, just like a mini-Alice. "Ok. Its ringing...ringing...ring-Hello?"

I quickly put the phone on speaker. "Hello?" Emily's voice sounded tired and wounded.

"Hi. Emily?"

"Yes?"

"Um...it's Bella Swan, and I have-"

"Are you ok? Where are you?"

"I'm fine. I have people coming to get us tomorrow."

"Us? Who's us?"

I looked pointedly at Nessie; signaling her to go ahead and speak to her mother. "Mom?" her voice soft and innocent.

"No! Nessie? Baby! Are you ok?"

"I'm fine Mom! I miss you. Where's Dad?"

"Emily? Who are you talking to? You know I am waiting for a phone call from Jacob." Sam's voice sounded from the background.

"Here, find out for yourself." You could hear the smile in Emily's voice as she spoke to her husband.

"Hello?" Sam's sad voice came next.

"Hi Sam, its Bella Swan-"

"Are you away from Stephen?"

"Yeah...but how-"

"Jake called, told me what was going on, hoping I knew some answers."

"Um...yeah. I'm away from him at the moment. Edward and the others are coming to get us tomorrow."

"Who else does he have?" Hope in his voice.

I didn't have to look at Nessie this time. She clutched the phone and cried "DADDY?! Is that really you!?" Happy tears fell down her cheeks. She's a Daddy's girl! Huh...who knew!

"Reneesme? Why? How? Oh Baby! Yes I'm here! I love you, sweetheart Are you ok?"

She nodded. "Uh-huh! I'm fine Daddy. I just miss you lots!"

Sam chuckled. "I miss you to honey! But you sound like you seven, not twelve."

"Twelve? You're twelve?" I asked looking at the girl beside me. "You look at least fourteen!"

Sam chuckled again over the phone. "Everyone says that! She's just growing up so fast!"

I was shocked, to say the least. This strong, brave, girl was just a kid! She lived through all of this Stephen bullshit. Stephen took something valuable from her. Something she can never get back and he took it from her. Guilt filled my face and voice. "Nessie. Its getting dark. Say good-bye to Sam and Emily. Stephen will be back soon, we got to get going."

"Oh. Thank you Bella! Please be safe! Love you, Nessie!" Sam said and Emily added in the background quickly. "Love you, honey."

"Love you too, Daddy. You too Momma!" She sniffled. "I'll see you soon."

I closed the phone. "Thank you, Tasha. Nessie will be back home and safe for good, by tomorrow morning." I handed the phone back to the blonde soccer player. "See ya later. We got to get running.

Nessie smiled. "Love you, Tash! See you soon!" She hugged the soccer player in a death grip.

Two minutes later, we were running through the woods. Not caring when a twig hit us, or we stepped inside a puddle of watery mud. We made the trip back to the road go by five times faster than the first time.

Just as we crossed the first lane, a dark SUV pulled up. I snatched Nessie behind me, protecting her from the stranger. "Hey babes! You look like hell!" the driver got out and leaned closer. I couldn't put my finger on where I knew that voice, but it sounded so strangely familiar. "I can fix that!" his voice became husky...and...slimy! That's when I realized I knew him. I knew who he was! My eyes widened horrifically. He chuckled. "You look like you just realized who I am." I didn't dare move. He grabbed a handful of my hair, threw me against the car, and pushed his entire body against mine. "Mmmm! You feel delicious! I wonder if you taste the same!" He leaned forward, his left hand still gripping my hair painfully, the other squeezing my hip bone so tightly, I knew there were going to be some awful bruising.

Just as I realized what I'd have to do to save our ass, I yelled to Reneesme. "Nessie, close your eyes and cover your ears! Don't open them till I touch your hand! Got it?" she saw the fear in my eyes and did what I said.

Just as I sighed, he pressed his lips to mine. I kissed him back, making my mind wrap the thought of me and Edward like this. My arms found their way around his neck and my left leg wound its self around his hip. He groaned shoving his hips into mine. I let the tip of my tongue trace his top lip, before wrapping it around his and pulling it into my mouth. Finally, he let go of the death grip he had on my hair, and moved it to my right calf. I moaned, pressing my body against the car side, then wrapping both legs around his hips. The hand on my hip moved to the small of my back. I found the hair at the nape of his neck and ripped it roughly. He whimpered, his eyes rolling back a ways.

BEEEEEEEPPPPPPPP!

We jumped apart from each other. Nessie jumped from her spot,but remained blind and deaf. "You fucking teenagers! Get a damn room. And get the fuck off my lane! And there's a kid with you, too!" they sped around us. "Have some dignity!"

Nessie opened her eyes when I grabbed her hand. "What was that all about?" she whispered to me. I shook my head 'no' and squeezed her hand softly.

"I know what that was you little whore!" he sneered licking his lips. "I'm still reporting this to Stephen!"

Shit! I thought not showing my disappointment on my face. He yanked Nessie up by the hair and threw her into the backseat. He didn't dare touch me, knowing I'd just turn him on. He had told me once, while we were in the school hallways, before all the shit went down. I sat in the passengers seat, hoping Nessie was ok. He got in the drivers seat, turned the ignition,and slipped his hand in between my legs. I bit my tongue for Nessie's sake.

It took five minutes to get back to that dreaded cabin. My BMW sat in the driveway. Stephen was back early. Really early! It was only 4:47. Shit!he's going to freaking kill me! We got out and Nessie walked ahead of me. I felt his hand come and grip my hair painfully. "You haven't changed a bit. You're still the whore I fucked along with your step-dad."

Slowly, I to look at him. Then as quick as a whip, I punched him in the jaw. "You have no right to fucking talk to me that way, you stupid piece of shit!" I yelled and punched him again and again. Stephen came out and pulled me away from his battered face. "Remember these words; You'll get what's coming to you, and I'll be there, telling you I told you so! Let go of me Stephen!" I thrashed wildly in his arms. I watched as my former boyfriend got up from the ground, spit out some blood, and walk over to me. His face mere inches from mine. He sneered pathetically. I spat in his face. "You are nothing! To anyone, Alex!" Then my world went black!
