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

Edward could hear their whole conversation as he neared them. He went right over to her and took her into his arms.

"Hey, Love." He greeted kissing her head. "You're safe now. Just let the doctors look over you real fast."

"I don't want to be touched right now. Please. I'll get looked at later I promise. I just…I can't handle being touched."

"Bella, did Jacob rape you?" one of the doctors asked.

Bella didn't answer she turned and buried her face in Edward's chest her breathing increasing.

"Shhhh Love, it's all right." Edward soothed rubbing her back.

" I just can't handle being touched right now. Can we go to the hospital?"

"I'll make you a deal. Edward can hold you, I'll tell you everything I'm about to do before I do it and we give you a quick exam and then we can go to the hospital." The doctor said.

Sighing Bella knew they weren't leaving there unless she was looked ok. "Ok please just…just be gentle…"

"I won't hurt you Bella. Let's start with something simple. I will ask you a question. You answer me honestly."

Bella was hit with a sudden flashback.

Flashback

Jacob chuckled and then smiled "Alright, the next game… Lets' go inside. The rules of this one are simple. I will ask you a question. You answer me honestly and you won't be hurt. Also if I don't like your answer you will be hurt." He led her inside to the table and forced her to sit down. "The game is starting now Bella, be careful what you say."

"I am ready as I will ever be…" she told him dryly.

"Where do you go to school?"

"Forks High"

"What is your favorite subject?"

"Science"

"If Edward were to come bursting through this door begging for you to take him back would you go?"

"No"

Jacob growled and smacked her hard across the cheek. "No lies!" He then looked back into her eyes and said "If Edward were to come bursting through this door begging for you to take him back would you go?"

"Yes…"

End flash back

Bella pulled back a little bit her breath catching her throat.

"It's all right Bella. Just answer the question. I won't hurt you."

"No, no I don't like this game. Please!"

"What game?" Edward asked.

"The question game. Please I don't want to play it again."

"Bella there is no game here. I'm asking you questions so I know how to treat you."

Bella calmed down as he realized she was safe and not with Jacob. "Can you repeat the question?"

"What hurts the most right now?"

"My head and my throat."

"Edward can you move some of her hair so I can get a good look at her neck."

Edward moved Bella's hair and the doctor looked at her neck. It was red and bruised.

"Is it bad?" Bella asked.

"It's very bruised. It will be sensitive and sore for a while but it isn't too bad. Mind me asking what happen?"

"He strangled her." Edward answered.

"Is he right?"

"Yes…."

As those memories returned so did the ones of her burning his stuff, with the memories came the guilt. Edward was holding her being the best boyfriend ever and she had destroyed all of their stuff. What kind of girlfriend was she?

"Bella!"

"Huh? Oh sorry. What?"

"Are you sore or hurt anywhere else?"

"No, just shaken up. I want to see my father."

"All right we had a deal. So let's go."

"I'm sorry but she cannot leave yet." A voice said.

Why not?" Edward asked.

"She hasn't given her statement. Until she does she cannot go anywhere," a cop said.

"I don't think your boss would respect your harassing his daughter."

"It's a normal process. Just tell me what happen and you can go home."

"I don't want to talk about it." Bella whimpered burring her face into Edward's chest.

"You cannot leave here without giving us your statement."

"Look she has been through more than enough for one night. Give us a card and when she is ready she will call. Until then back off and leave her alone." Edward growled.

"Do not take that tone with me young man."

"I'll talk to you anyway I want to. You are upsetting my girlfriend and I will not allow it. Now leave her alone."

"She needs to give me her statement."

"Her father…your boss is in the hospital. I would think that's a little more important than questioning a traumatized young women."

"The sooner we get it down the sooner she can stop worrying about it."

"No! I don't want to! Please leave me alone!" Bella cried out.

"How do you think the Chief of Police will feel when he finds out you were harassing his daughter to the point of tears?" Edward asked. "I think you'd be fired. You might lose your job."

"You have no idea what you're talking about."

"Oh yeah? Do you have kids?"

"Yes I do. I have a little daughter she is five years old."

"Well what would you do if you found out someone you worked with was harassing your little girl until the point that she was crying hysterically? What would you do?"

"I'd kill them."

"So how do you think Charlie will feel when he finds out what you're doing?"

The cop sighed. He turned around and left without another word.

"Thank you." Bella softly.

"Anytime Love."

"Can we go to the hospital now?"

"Of course love."

Edward stood up keeping Bella close in his arms. He looked around and saw they were alone. He took off running at vampire speed.

Once they reached the hospital he slowly…well human speed went inside and up to the front desk.

"Has Charlie Swan been brought in yet?"

"Yes but only family is allowed to see him."

"I'm his daughter and this is my…..older brother." Bella said.

"All right. Go to the second floor and make a right. His doctor should be there waiting for you."

"Thank you."

Edward made his way to the elevator. Once they were inside Edward asked "Older brother?"

"I had to say something. Otherwise she wouldn't have let you through and I can't do this without you."

"You don't have to but I'm sure she would have let me back as you're boyfriend. I mean aren't boyfriends family?"

"I don't know I didn't want to take a chance."

"Bella the way you said that seemed natural…like almost too natural. Did Jacob do something to make you feel like you're no longer worthy enough to be known as my girlfriend?"

Bella went stiff as stone. How was she going to answer that question? How would she tell her boyfriend that his enemy imprinted on her and now she was forced to love him and only him?

A/N as you can tell we love leaving you guys with cliff hangers, but don't worry the next chapter will be up tomorrow. What do you think will happen? How will Edward react to this news? Will Bella even tell him?
