BPOV: I arrived at the airport with just enough time to check in and make the final boarding call. I was so relieved that I made it. "This means an indefinite amount of time with Charlie! I finally get peace!!!" I thought to myself. On the long flight to the Forks airport I realized that the only way I could get out permanently from Phil and Renee was to tell Charlie everything. I decided that was going to be my plan of action. I sat back and took a nap for the rest of the flight.

I woke up to the stewardess's voice coming onto the loud speaker telling us to fasten our seat belts because the plane was landing. I sat up and buckled my seat belt. I looked out my window and saw that it was raining in Forks as always but for the first time ever I couldn't wait to get out in plane landed and the passengers got off. I grabbed my backpack and walked off the plane. I looked for Charlie but didn't see him. I finally spotted a Deputy in the Forks Police uniform with a whiteboard with my name on it. I quickly walked up to him.

"Bella? Hi, my name is Deputy Keith Jackson you dad sent me to pick you up. Is that all you brought?" He asked pointing to my backpack. "Yeah this is it. Dad has more of my stuff at the house." I replied. "Ok then let's get going!" Deputy Jackson said cheerily. "Your Dad gave me a choice to tell you. I can bring you to him at the station or I can take you to the house. It's your choice." He said waiting for me to answer. I thought for a few seconds and decided to go to the house and sleep for a while before I had to spill everything to Charlie. "Ummm if you could just take me to the house that would be great!" I said quickly. "Sure thing. If I go the wrong way just let me know I'm working off of your dads directions!" He said with a grin. So I spent the next fifteen minutes directing Deputy Jackson to my father's house. When we finally got there I climbed out and the deputy handed me my backpack. "Thank you for picking me up Deputy Jackson!" I said. "Oh Bella it's just Keith when I hear Deputy Jackson I think of my father!!! Bleh!" He said laughing. "All right Keith thank you and drive safely back to the station." I said walking inside. I looked around the house thinking how great it is to be home and away from THEM!!!!! I made my way up to my bedroom and sank gratefully into the warm flannel sheets. I feel into a deep sleep immediately.

"Bella wake up sweetie!!!" I heard someone whisper. I realized after smelling the peppermint and gun oil that it was Charlie. I yawned and sat looking at the clock. "Dad!!! What time did you get home?" I asked rubbing the sleep out of my eyes. "Just a few minutes ago Bells. Now I realize you must still be really tired but I saw the bruises on your face while you slept. Those were not there when you were here last were they?" He asked lifting an eyebrow. I had a big knot in my stomach because apparently even in sleep I was dreading this moment. "Ok Dad can we go downstairs if I stay in bed I'm gonna fall asleep again." I said. "All right Bella I'll wait in the kitchen." He said suspiciously. I rolled out of bed after he closed my door. Quickly I went to the bathroom and made sure the cuts and bruises were still there so Charlie could see them.

I went down stairs and into the kitchen. Charlie was sitting at the table with a cup of coffee and a cup of what smelled like Chai tea for me. "All right Bella it's time to tell me what's going on." Charlie said with what I assume is his 'business tone'. I knew I could count on Charlie to help so I started when it all started. I started with the first beating two days before my fifth birthday and continued on. By the time I got to the most recent couple beating it was very late and Charlie's face was so still I thought for a second he may pass out.

It was five minutes after Charlie spoke in a clenched voice. "Bella why didn't you come to me sooner? I could have stopped this so many years ago!" "Dad you have no idea how scary Phil is when he threatens. Dad he basically threatened to rape me if I ever said anything to you when I'm here in the summer. It's just when they started getting really bad I just said enough. Phil was getting closer and closer to just carrying out his threat when I haven't said anything. So I went to school and borrowed a cell phone from a friend called you and came here. Phil and Renee are going to be so ticked off when they realize I'm gone." I said in a frightened voice. "Oh Bella, Come here sweetie!" He said getting up to give me a hug. "No one is going to hurt you ever again!" He said with conviction giving me a squeeze. "Thanks Daddy." I whispered using his nickname from when I was small. "Bella I'm gonna take you to the station tomorrow so we can get pictures of the cuts, bruises and your hand. I'm also going to make an appointment with Dr. Cullen. This case will be good to have his input on. You need to have a full physical for the report and it will ease my mind." He said with a small smile. "All right Dad. I'm gonna go to bed so I won't be falling asleep tomorrow." I said smiling. "Ok, night Bells sleep tight." Dad said finishing off his coffee.

I walked upstairs and lay awake for a couple hours thinking of so many things. Charlie had just said he would take care of me and Phil and Renee would be stopped. I was so excited but finally after what seemed like a millenia of staring at the ceiling and tossing and turning I finally fell asleep with a smile on my face for the first time in thirteen years.
