The next few days the school days were quiet for Chloe. Edward and his family hadn't shown up to school since she had the "almost catastrophe". Chloe felt a sense of reprieve because she didn't want to put up with the questions and so to sidetrack herself she had begun concentrating on her ballet and piano recitals. Chloe needed to buy new ballet point shoes and a dress for Leah's birthday weekend and so she decided to go out to Port Angeles to buy them. The day passed by quick and she was quiet the whole day just answering few questions here and there.
"Are you okay?" a concerned Angela asked while they sat at lunch.
"Yeah, I am fine. Just thinking about my ballet, my new teacher..." Chloe replied toying with her yoghurt.
"Hey um, I am not sure if you are interested but my Uncle Taylor owns a cafe in Port Angeles and he is looking for a barista/waitress. You interested?" Angela asked.
"Oh of course, thank you so much Angela" she thanked.
Chloe got into her car after school but the whole time couldn't help if someone was watching her. It was drizzling, her breath white and a icy chill was in the air of the school. She peered around and shivered but no one was looking at her. She drove to Port Angeles along the scenic route listening to her I Pod on shuffle letting the music drift in, out and giving her a sense of calmness. On her travels around Port Angeles she found a quaint dress boutique and picked out a white almost knee length white summer dress with a apple green ribbon around the waist. She then walked around the streets looking for the ballet shop she had found on the internet. It began to drizzle and a swirling haze began to stay around her. She pulled her scarf tighter, her coat collar up and her beret secured to keep pleasant and warm. There was a whistle behind her, her hairs prickled on the back of her neck and it felt as if there was an electric stun sent through her body , she began to turn slowly and saw a group of men creepily following her. Chloe was frightened and walked quicker to find her car. But Chloe could tell they had dire purpose, she could sense it in the air. Chloe found her car, went to put her keys in but a large hand grabbed her turning her around and smacked her hand with her car keys hard into the car metal. Pain stabbed through her whole arm, her cry was muffled by the man putting his hand over mouth. Her breathing became rapid and quick, Chloe's eyes were wide looking directly in her attackers eyes.
"Come with me and my friends" he snickered giving her a peck on her check. She cringed away from his touch and she looked around and five other men standing around.
"Oh god" she whispered to herself was dragged along with the man and began to scream.
The man roughly shoved her down near some shrubs, cutting her jeans and scrapes her skin. The ground was damp and smelt of rotting leaves and grass as ti wafted around her. Would this be the last thing she would see or smell?? The man hit her across the face and Chloe kicked him in the chest scrambling to get away from her attackers and ran to her car. She was grabbed on the shoulder by one of his mates and brought down to the ground. What was she to do? Her breathing became calm and she began to think it all through so she courageously turned around and punched him in the jaw, her injured hand laying limp. She wasn't going down without a fight. While Chloe had her eyes closed from the pain of her wrist she heard a body crumple to the ground. She opened her eyes and saw Emmet, Edward's brother looking down at her.
"Are you okay?" he asked putting his hand on her shoulder.
"My hand..." she whimpered.
Chloe looked to the sound of the argument seeing Edward and Jasper standing off with the group of men. Edward and Jasper looked fierce, their hands stretched outward and a low growl was rumbling mongst them. One of the men came for Edward but he turned and knocked him to the ground hard, the criminal's jaw cracking as it hit the ground. The other guy came for Jasper he did the same and the guy's nose broke as it hit the ground. Edward seemed so full of rage to the men.
"Edward man, come one they aren't worth it. We should get Chloe to the hospital" Emmet called out to him helping Chloe out.
"No, no please no hospitals.. I am fine" Chloe told them. Emmet picked up her bags and put her into the passenger seat of her car.
"We can take her to Carlisle. He should be home" Jasper urged without changing his focus from the men.
"Edward! Edward! Man, come on" Emmet urged.
Edward growled loudly at the men. "If you come anywhere near her again, I will kill you I swear"
He turned and walked straight to the driver's seat of Chloe's car and right away was composed.
"We will see you back home. We will be right behind you" Jasper called out.
Edward drove off high-speed, his hands gripping the steering wheel tight and so Chloe asked " Are you okay?" she asked.
Edward snickered to himself and turning to look at Chloe.
"Here you were just attacked, you have an injured hand, a sore head and you are concerned with me. You seemed more concerned with other people and not yourself. Why?" he asked softly with slight anger.
"I just care..." she replied mumbling looking down to her hands and twiddling her fingers.
"Are you warm enough? How is your hand, we are taking you to my house to my father. Oh my god those god forsaken men. What they were thinking of doing to you. And what they did, I just want to rip their heads off" he snarled.
"Edward, it is okay I am okay..." she calmly told him despite he was driving quick and his anger showing.
The drive to the Cullens was silent; they pulled up to the enormous white house. Edward came around to Chloe's door and helped her out. A woman and a girl with pixie black stood at the front door.
"Oh Emmet rang us to tell you were coming...' Esme fussed over Chloe as she and Edward were walking up to front door.
"Chloe, this is my mother Esme and my sister Alice.." Edward introduced.
"It is a pleasure to finally meet you. I am sorry it couldn't be on better circumstances" Chloe told them smirking.
"Come inside Chloe, our father Carlisle has his bag ready to look at your arm" Alice ushered as she led Chloe to Carlisle.
Emmet pulled up in Edward's car and got out with jasper as well.
"I tell you what Chloe you did give that bloke a mean right hook" Emmet noted.
"Yeah Chloe You threw a better punch than Emmet" Jasper chuckled.
"Oh please boy.. Hello Chloe i am Rosalie, please excuse Emmet and Jasper"
Edward walked Chloe into what was Carlisle study. She was looking all around, the paintings, the colours and a door was open showing a grand piano. Chloe leaned back a little to take a better look as they were walking along.
"Ahh you must be Chloe Young, it is a joy to finally meet you. Now let's check this arm out for you"
Chloe sat down on a seat beside his study desk. Carlisle gently touched her wrist and got out some bandages and gently wrapped her wrist. He flashed a small torch in her eyes and looked at her head.
"I believe your head is just fine, your wrist is sprained but should heal in due course. Edward tells us you play piano and dance ballet"
'"yes I do, i would like to go to Julliard to dance" she informed Carlisle.
Suddenly her eyes widened, she put her hand up on her head and her face grimaced in pain. Her mind was buzzing around and her ears were ringing.
"Chloe? Chloe are you okay?" Edward asked kneeling beside her.
Carlisles put his hands on her face.
"Chloe can you hear me?" Carlisle asked.
"Concentrate on it, zone it out the best you can then everything will be better' Edward spoke softly to Chloe crouching beside her. "Are you okay?" Edward asked.
"If it is okay by you I believe i can help you?" Carlisle offered.
"You can help me?" she muttered looking to the ground and up.
"Yes" Carlisle assured.
"Okay" she responded.
"Come Chloe" Carlisle ushered her looking at Alice, Emmet, Rosalie.
"It was a pleasure to meet you Chloe finally!" Alice giggled ran up to her and gave her a hug. "We will talk later, and oh that dress you bought is perfect".
He took tests in silent as Chloe looked around in his library at all the books around her.
"You are more than welcome to read them. How long have these headaches been happening? What do they feel like?"
"It feels like as if my head is full of hot coals and if been splitting open by by a hot poker. Its been happening as long as i remember..."
"You don't have to be ashamed..." he told her.
Carlisle finished the test and Chloe turned around and saw Edward standing in the door.
"It's best if we take Chloe home now, her parents could be getting worried"
"Thankyou Carlisle, but please can this be a secret? My parents would just think I am crazy if i told them.."
"Not a problem. See you soon"
They walked out and Alice came running to her 'Chhloe, chloe, Chloe. We have to go shopping like after this weekend "
"Okay" she laughed as Alice gave her a hug.
"see you squirt" Emmet yelled out.
"Be nice to Chloe, she is our guest" esme told Emmet picking up Chloe's parka off the hallway chair.
"It was an absolute pleasure to meet you Chloe. I do hope you can come and visit us soon, we don't get too many visitors"
'Thank you. See you later'
They got into the car.
"You don't think I am a freak do you?" she asked twiddling her fingers and biting her lip
"No, of course not. Why would you think that?"
"Everyone else except for your family seems to think so..." answered looking up at Edward with her eyes, ones that could even surpass the colour of Edward and his family.
