Chapter 8

I woke up to faint beeping. Great hospitals...then I saw him…

"Bella, you're alive." He said.

"What? Where am I? Where's Uncle Bob!" I was confused.

"Its okay, that scum bag is in jail."Edward said while Carlisle walked in… "Nice reunion? How are you Bella?" In pain obviously.

"What happened?"I asked.

"You're uncle beat you, you have bruises on your arms and face. He ruptured your kidney so you had surgery but you should be okay. The impact he caused created the rupture. You have many visitors."

"Why does my back hurt?" I asked. The look on both of their faces said it all. It was bad. He only showed me a picture. Sketched at the bottom of my back was the word whore. I started crying, Edward hugged me.

The nightmare continued. "Hello slut." Todd. Great.

"Todd what do you want!"

"You finally got what you deserved…" Before he could say anything else, Edward escorted him out.

"I give you full permission to kill him if you want. Sorry, you have to see me like this."

"I've seen you worse. If you're Uncle wasn't on Death Row I would kill him. I might take you up on the Todd offer. I still love-"

"Well, well, well, perfect little Bella got herself beat up." That must be Lavender.

"Not now." Edward said.

"Guess you're not perfect now."

"Lavender, out now!" She left.

"She's precious." I tried to be sincere but I couldn't help but laugh. "I feel like crap. Do I look as bad as I feel?" Before he could answer Cedric came in and Jacob.

"Bella, are you okay?" Cedric asked.

"I'm fine." Cedric bent down to kiss me. "Ow!"

"Sorry."Cedric said. Jacob rolled his eyes. He looked really different.

"The two super boyfriends and the super best friend are here."

"What?" Edward said.

"You miss a lot Edward." I said.

He looked at me and he seemed to figure everything out. "Let me get this straight…I'm a vampire, he's a werewolf, and he's a wizard." Edward said.

"Yes and your point is?" I responded. Took him long enough.

"Same old danger magnet." He said smiling that crooked smile I loved. I was with my reason of existence but why couldn't I say anything to him. Charlie and Renee walked in.

"You guys need to go. Bella needs to give her statement." Charlie said. They began to leave.

"Wait! Edward can you stay with me?" I asked. He nodded and started to turn around.

"Bella, I don't think that's a good idea." Charlie said.

"Charlie its either Bob gets away with it or Edward stays with me. He knows." Charlie nodded and I began.

"He started doing things to me when I was two."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Charlie said.

"I did, Dad but you didn't believe me." Charlie was upset and Edward looked like he was going to kill someone.

"He was sent to jail for it. I was sleeping and heard laughing, I opened my eyes and he was leaning over me. He tied me up." I started crying. Edward grasped me in his arms trying to calm me down. Charlie was becoming furious. He was furious that I let him in again so easily.

"He started to rape me. He covered my mouth so I wouldn't scream. I got one of my hands free and broke his nose and screamed. That's when you came in." I stopped there because I was too upset. I leaned into Edward's chest and cried.
