A/N I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING! I ONLY OWN THIS PLOT! I'm co-writing this story with Elena Rain. Please enjoy!


His face fell but he just nodded. "Alright angel, sleep well" He leaned down and kissed her forehead and watched her go inside. He then pulled away and returned a few minutes later in his wolf form, he had to keep watch. No blood sucker would be able to enter.

Bella walked into her house and took a deep breath. She was going to need courage to do what she was about to do.

"Dad are you home?"

"In the kitchen Bells."

Bella walked into the kitchen.

"Hey Bells, did Jacob drop you off?"

"Yes, actually dad, that's what I need to talk to you about."

"Ok…"

"Dad, Edward didn't hurt me. Jacob is the one who hurt me. I want to be with Edward and have freedom to see him whenever I want."

"Well I'm sorry but…"

"No dad. No buts I am 18 remember I can do what I want now. You have no say in anything I do."

"I am your father and as long as you live under my roof you will do as you're told."

"So I'll move out."

"Where are you going to live?"

"With Edward."

"Oh please, Carlisle has enough kids to worry about he isn't going to want another one."

"Carlisle loves me dad. I wish I could say the same for you."

"Isabella Swan don't you dare say that! I love you so much! I am doing what is best for you by keeping you away from Edward."

"If you really loved me dad you'd believe my side of the story."

"Well in all fairness I've know Jacob longer than you. He was a good friend to me and a son I never had when you lived with your mom."

"Oh so now it's all my fault?"

"You did choose to move here Bella. You could be in Jacksonville with your mother. I was perfectly fine on my own. Then you come along and make my life so much harder."

"Dad I…"

"No, don't say anything. If you hate living here so much fine then go, get out, I'm going on a fishing trip with Billy for the weekend. You better be gone when I get back!" Charlie yelled.

He left the house slamming the door behind him. Bella jumped as a hard touched her shoulder.

"It's all your fault you know."

"Get lost." Bella growled as she spun around to face him.

"I can't. I'm babysitting you remember."

"Jacob I'm not in the mood all right."

Tears filled her eyes but she refused to let them fall. She would NOT cry in front of Jacob.

"He wouldn't have left like that if it wasn't for you."

"Jacob not now!"

"Careful Bella, you do not want to make me angry do you?"

Bella stepped back fighting off a whimper. She was alone with Jacob and Alice would no longer be able to see what happens to her.

"Ok I'm sorry. How did you get in here anyway?"

"The back door. I've been standing guard since I dropped you off. I didn't want that horrible Cullen to be dropping by and upsetting you."

"Do you really have to stay Jake? I'll be fine on my own. I'm really tired I just want to sleep."

"Go on then, but I'm not leaving. Charlie trusted me to make sure you stay safe and that's what I'm going to do."

"Jacob I'm 18 I don't need a babysitter."

"I know, I heard you tell your father but it won't change anything. I'm here to stay and nothing you say will change that."

Bella was just about to give in when she got another idea.

"Jake, you love me right?"

"After everything I've done for you, you still have to ask."

"If you really loved me you'd give me my space. I was just attacked you know. I'm still uncomfortable being alone with men."

"Oh nice try on the guilt trip Bella. It's not working though I know the second I leave Edward is going to fly through your window and stay the night with you, but if you really are wanting space we could leave together."

"What?"

"Let's run away Bella. Just you and me, we don't have to worry about anyone or anything and we can just be free and be together."

"Jacob I can't just leave, no matter how much I lo-lo-love you." Bella choked out.

"What is keeping you here? Edward doesn't want you anymore. I'm sure that annoying little pixie told him that you chose me over him so he wouldn't want anything to do with you and Charlie just kicked you out."

"I'm not just going to leave Jake. I want to at least make up with my father first. The last time I fought with him then left I almost ended up dying and I don't want that to happen again."

"OK Bella you have two choices. You can either run away with me and safe your father's life or you can stay here and I'll be very mad at your father for upsetting you and…well you know what happens when I get mad."

"You wouldn't."

"Don't test me Bella. Are you really willing to risk you're father's life?"

"Ok I'll go with you but leave my father alone."

Jacob smirked. "Perfect."

He transformed into a wolf. "Hold on, because I can run faster than that blood sucker."

Bella climbed onto him and gripped his fur. Jacob took off running out of the house into the Forrest out of sight.


In the car with Charlie he kept going over the conversation he just had in his head. He knew he couldn't just leave things like that. The last time he let her go while they were fighting he almost lost her. He was never going to let that happen again. He made a u-turn and went back home.

"Bell!" he called once he got inside. "Bella are you here?"

"Of course she isn't here you told her to leave." Charlie said to himself. He checked the whole house and no sign of Bella, but all her stuff was still there. There was only one other place she could be...


At the Cullen house Alice and Edward were pacing back and forth.

"Will you two calm down? Bella is going to be fine." Emmet said.

"Are you stupid Emmet? Bella is alone with Jacob, the same monster who less than a week ago beat her to pulp nearly killing her." Edward growled.

"Jacob needs to be on good terms with Charlie he isn't going to hurt Bella again."

"I don't trust that."

"Both of you stop it. Whatever happens will happen; there is nothing we can do." Carlisle said.

"He's right. We just have to wait this out." Esme said

Just then a human sent caught everyone's nose.

"What is he doing here?" Jasper asked.

"I don't know but what is he feeling?"

"He's scared, very, very, scared."

They all rushed to the door and opened it to reveal Charlie.

"Chief Sawn, how can we help you?" Carlisle asked.

"Please, I need an honest answer from you. Bella and I got into a bad fight and I left, when I got back home all her stuff was there but she was gone. I know she'd run to Edward for comfort. If she doesn't want to speak with me right now fine but I just want to know she is safe please."

"Bella isn't here. We haven't seen her since school." Edward answered.

"Do you know where she might have gone?"

"No, but we do know who she is with." Alice said.

"Who?"

"Jacob. Sir, I know you don't want to believe it but Jacob is the one hurting her. Not Edward and we even have proof."

"OK, show me."

Alice took out her phone and played the recording Bella had sent her. Charlie covered his face with his hands.

"I failed her and now she is gone, I'll never forgive myself."

"Don't give up on her so quick Chief Swan, let us help you. We can help you find Bella. The more people that are looking for her the more likely we are to find her."

"OK, I'll call the guys at the office and have them look for her too. Edward I want you to come with me. If I find Bella she might not trust me and you can help her."

"Yes Sir."

"If any of you find her please call me."

"We will."

Charlie and Edward left in search of Bella the others not too far behind. They were all scared that by the time they found Bella it would be too late.
