A/N: Thanks to everyone that subscribed after I posted chapter four. I'm glad that I had a bunch of emails letting me know you all subscribed by adding it to your favorites or alerts! However, there the fact that there is a bunch of you that have read and not reviewed. I didn't get feedback from many of out. Only four have reviewed and one gave me a personal message. Please I only ask for reviews so that I know if I need to work on something or just the fact that you guys enjoy it so much that I should continue with the story. So I will hold the 6th chapter until I get a few reviews. Please don't keep the story from others that want to read as much as you do.

Chapter 5: Bella's pov

School was dreadful! It was the new kids first day here and they already hate me; especially that bronze haired boy, Edward. I didn't even make contact with him I hope that Alice and Rosalie don't come after me. During gym I found out a lot of stuff about the new kids. Alice of course is the short brown haired pixie like girl, she is a junior like me and Edward, and she is dating Jasper. Jasper is the blond boy, he is a senior, and is a twin with Rosalie; who is dating the big brother Emmett that is also a senior. It is kind of funny that the family is together like that but it must be weird for Edward. His siblings are all together while he's single.

I was making my way to my car when I bumped into a wall and fell down. I looked up to see what direction I was headed only to walk into a wall. My eyes bugged out to see that it wasn't a wall. Actually it was the eldest of the Cullen's, Emmett. I could feel myself turning beat red with embarrassment but realized that it was one of the Cullen siblings. He's probably going to yell at me for doing whatever I did to his brother and the fact that I bumped in to him. He smiled down at me as he held out his right hand towards me. I physically relaxed at the friendly gesture. I smiled and cautiously took his hand. "Sorry I walked into you' I apologized and sheepishly smiled at him.

"Nah it's ok. I'm sorry that I was the one that you walked into" I swallowed hard at his statement. I was right he's going to lash out at me about Edward. "I mean it must've hurt bumping into someone as big and strong as me" he said as he began to flex his arms a little. I responded with a little giggle.

"Not really but I did think I walked into a wall and not a person." I dusted my butt off and reached for my cell in my back pocket to check the time. I needed to be at Newton's by four o'clock and it was already three forty-two. "Sorry again but I have to leave. Bye" I said then ran towards my car.

I hope I didn't make a bad impression on him. I don't really need him to hate me even more! That'll give Alice and Rosalie another reason to lash out at me. I would have been more kind to him but I really needed to leave quickly.

I arrived at the Newton's sporting goods store just five minutes before my shift was about to start. Mrs. Newton was helping these two men when she saw me. I smiled and waved politely to her, she responded with a smile. I walked towards the register while putting on my uniform flannel. I logged on to the register to start my shift.

Mrs. Newton led the two men to my register for me to ringing them up. "Wasn't the hike weird today John?" said one of the two men to the other; who I assumed was John.

"Yeah Tony, it was just two quite. I didn't see any animals other than that one deer we came across that was dead. It was weird how that thing was hard as a rock and how cold its body felt."

I got done ringing up their tents and hunting knifes. "That'll be one hundred and thirty dollars." I said to them.

"Do you happen to know how populated the wild life is near here" Tony asked me.

"Umm…It's fairly large. When I hike I've spotted two or three deers" I replied as I handed him his change.

"Ok, thanks anyways." John said as he and Tony left the store.

I sat down on a stool that Mrs. Newton placed there for me when things at the store were slow. While I was reading "Romeo and Juliet" the glass doors opened. I tore my gaze from my book to look at the customer that just entered. "Hello, welcome to Newton's sporting goods store how may I help you?" I greeted the person.

"Hello, I'd like to buy a pair of rollerblades for my son here" answered a woman in her early forties.

"Yes, follow me right this way."

After helping the woman and her son it was seven o'clock; Time to close up the store with Mrs. Newton. I quickly clocking out on the register's computer and cleaning up any trash there might have been. I walked to the back room where Mrs. Newton was to let her know I was locking the door and heading home. When I entered she had her head down on the table looking like she was sleeping. I walked up to her and placed my hand on her shoulder. Causing her to scream and sit up quickly. I jumped back startled by her reaction. "Mrs. Newton it's already closing time."

"I'm sorry Bella. I mean to fall asleep and leave you alone to run the store" she apologized.

"Don't worry about it. After the two men, a mother and son came in to buy a pair of rollerblades. Other than that, there weren't any other customers." I told her as we walked out of the store.

"Thank you dear, I'll see you on Monday." I didn't realize that it was Thursday already.

"See you." I replied as I made my way to my car. It was now seven fifteen and I needed to be home by seven thirty to start dinner before my parents threw a fit. Thank god my house was only ten minutes away from then store.

I arrived home to find both my parents cars in the drive way. I parked my car on the side of the road and made my way up to the porch. Being the big klutz I am I slipped on the second stone step and landed on my butt. I slowly got up dusting myself off then cautiously made my way up the steps again.

I unlocked the door and walked into the hallway. I was hanging up my coat when Renee came bitching. "Where the fuck have you been? It is already seven twenty two. You were supposed to be home by seven twenty to start dinner" she bitched.

"Oh God Mom I'm sorry that I am two minutes late to start dinner. Something tragic could have happened to me with in those two minutes. Then who would have cooked your dinner" I spoke sarcastically.

"Shut the fuck up you useless bitch. How could I have raised such a useless child?"

"HAH! I'm useless? I do everything in this fucking house! If it weren't for me you would have to be cooking and cleaning. If it weren't for me you wouldn't be able to hang out with your friends as often as you'd like. You didn't even fucking teach me how to cook or anything. I had to learn on my own because you're a sorry excuse for a mother!" I screamed.

"Isabella, what have I told you about talking to your mother that way" Charlie came in saying.

"Oh please. I have to sit back and take her fucking crap. You know what if I'm so useless then you guys fucking make dinner for yourselves. I'm going to my room." I said stomping my way pass them.

I was about to place my right foot on the first step when Renee pulled my arm back towards her. "You little bitch get in the fucking kitchen and start cooking dinner" she said dragging me to the kitchen. Her grip on my arm was so strong that her nails were digging into my skin. We reached the door to the kitchen and she pushed me in. "Now shut the fuck up. I better not hear any bullshit from you."

I sighed heavily fighting the tears back. I walked over to the refrigerator and grabbed two pieces of beef. I decided steak would be the fastest to cook for these ungrateful bitches. I turned on the stove and placed a skillet onto the burner. 'I can't believe Charlie saw how she treated me and did nothing. He made like we were going to be a happy family again. He's the chief of police for crying out loud. His very own daughter was being abused before his eye and he didn't do shit.' I thought as I sautéed the steaks. I placed them into the skillet that was set on high so they'd cook faster. At this point I was so fed up with the bullshit I didn't care how it tasted. Besides I wasn't going to eat, I had lost my appetite during the argument with that bitch I call mother.

When I was done cooking, I grabbed my backpack and quickly and quietly made my way up the stairs to my room. I wasn't going to speak to them after what fucking happened. This happens every time I come home from work. If I wasn't home on time why can't they just order their damn food? "God I hate this place" I groaned aloud once I was in the confinement of my isolated room. I plopped down onto my bed in exhaustion.

Thoughts of today's argument and past arguments played through my head. Arguments over dinner, cleaning, each other, money, even about parking spots. Then thoughts of how we use to be a happy family played through my mind. How my mother and I would go shopping all the time. How my Dad would take me out fishing with him. Or how we would actually sit at the table and eat dinner with each other. The last time we did any of that stuff was back when I was only in the fifth grade.

Tears began to spill through my eyes and this numbing pain coursed through my body. It started in my chest making its way through out my body. It became hard to breathe and swallow. The pain was excruciating. It made its way down through my arms to the tips of my fingers craving for a cut on my forearm. The pain made its way up to my throat and I began to choke like I was vomiting. There was nothing I could do except give what my body craves for.

I ran into the bathroom and shut the door behind me. I calmed myself down enough to just turn the crying into sobbing. My vision still blurred a bit but I could see my way good enough. I reached into the medicine cabinet above the sink and took out a blade. A few tears began to escape from my eyes. I raised my forearm high enough for me to see where I was going to make my cut.

Right when the blade made impact with my skin. There was a thud in my room. I decided to ignore it and continued with what I was doing. I could hear my closet door sliding open just when I was about to move the blade across my skin. I placed it on the counter and walked into my room. I looked around my room nothing was out of place. I walked over to my closet and opened the door but nothing was there on both sides I even looked up. I shrugged and walked over to my bed to change into my pajamas. I had totally forgotten about cutting until I heard a voice outside my bedroom door.

"Isabella your father and I are leaving for La Push tomorrow morning. So we won't be here when you wake up" Renee announced. I could hear her making her way to her bed room when she was done.

The pain was coursing through my body again and ran back into my bathroom. I needed to cut; I needed to feel the satisfaction that replaced the numbing pain in my body. I picked up the blade and positioned it back onto my forearm. I gently swiped it across my skin. Blood began to ooze out of the open wound. I could feel it pulsing at the sides of the wound. The cut was not deep, nor big, but enough to form a streak down my arm and to the palm of my left hand. I rinsed the blade with my right hand under the running faucet. I picked up my bloody towel that I used to wrap around the cut till it stopped bleeding. 'Note to self wash bloody towel next time I do laundry.'

As soon as the bleeding stopped I placed a band-aid on top of the opened cut then made my way to my bed. I sighed disappointed with myself that I had begun to cut again. I dropped down onto my bed and turned on to my side. A fresh new batch of tears poured out of my eyes. I laid there crying myself to sleep just like any other night.

A/N: There you have it. A nice chapter I have posted up. Its not the drama I had in mind but good enough to start more. Lol. Ok now I'm serious about holding chapters until I get reviews. I want at least 10. Theres more than 10 of you that have subscribed. So it shouldn't be that hard. However, if I were you I wouldn't depend on the others to review. And even if there is 10 reviews you should review anyways because its nice and it helps me out more. Next update in a few days or so. Depends on when I get the reviews.
