Chapter 8: Finding James
Edwards POV
When I left Bella I felt...not whole. I'm not sure what's happening but I'm sure this isn't normal. I asked Alice what did it mean but she just said I'd find out soon. I even asked Esme but she said just to follow my heart and don't be stupid. Whatever that means.
I had to keep reminding myself I had to find James to keep Bella safe and that prolonged the aching and longing. We found his scent somewhere around Phoenix. We followed it and we just kept going in circles.
Abruptly, Alice's eyes glazed over and I saw her vision.
James carrying an uncousious Bella to a dance studio in phoenix. Him tortuing her and killing her slowly. Victoria watching the outside of the studio and letting James finish the job. Them video taping what the do to her, telling her to tell us to avenge her. They leave the tape on top of her ashes for us to find. Us finding her and avenging her death, killing James and Victoria. Me being miserable, and making everyone else misersable. Shutting everybody out and not listening to them when they tell me to move on and Bella wouldnt want me to act this way.
The vision ended and I felt nothing.
There's still time. Thats his decision but you could be there to stop him.
Alice told me in her thoughts. I nodded and told them I'd meet them at the studio. I quickly ran to the studio and heard a peircing scream.
I quickly thre Victoria away from the door and burst through them and found Bella on the ground with a arm ripped off and bite on her hand. She was crying in pain and gasped when she saw me.
I ran to her and surveyed the damage done to her. I suddenly was thrown into a window. I quickly got up and slammed into James. I threw him in a mirror and bit his neck, I suddenly felt a hand on my back.
"Thats enough son. Remember who you are," Carlisle told me. I then heard Bella scream again. "Bella needs you, let Emmett and Jasper take care of him." He said. I nodded and let go of James with a growl.
I quickly went to Bella and watched as Carlisle re-attached her arm. "Carlisle, what about the bite?" I asked him. He just shook his head. "She'll be fine. She'll just have a scar like Jaspers but thats all." He said.
I watched as Jasper and Emmett held James and Alice tore of his head. Esme and Rosalie were at the Denali's coven seeing if they were alright. Emmett and Jasper ripped off his arms and they threw him and his body parts in the fire.
Bella started to become aware of her surroundings and able to move her arm. She told me she was fine but that didnt stop me from carrying her.
Carlisle, Alice, and Emmett brought Bella home while Jasper and I went to get Rose and Esme.
When we arrived to the Denali coven we quickly knocked on the door as to not let them think we were the enemy. They answered the door and we stepped inside. All their thoughts were full of concern for Bella, even Tanya.
I guess nobody told her Bella was Edward's mate, she's been after Edward for years.
Jasper thought and I chuckled lowly and he just smiled. I quickly explained what happened and that Bella was alright, wanting to get back to her. They nodded understandingly but Tanya looked confused.
I cursed myself under my breath for starting unnecessary drama. "Why would you want to get back to her?" She asked. "Because she's my mate and I need her." I told her sternly.
Her eyes turned to slits and I felt guilty and rude.
But it had to be done.
Jasper thought to me, confused. I just nodded, letting him know I heard him and I'd explain later. "Ok, well go to her then!" Tanya huffed storming off. I quickly told them i was sorry for starting this but they just nodded and said they understood.
I quickly ran back to my mate, my love, my Bella and thought about our future together. We entered the house and I instantly felt relaxed as I saw Bella talking to Rose, both of them laughing and her eyes a hazel color, meaning she just hunted.
She turned and faced me, smiling instantly. "Hey." She said nervously. What could she be nervous about? I wondered to myself. "Um...could we go upstairs?" She asked.
"Sure." I said slowly and unsure. I followed her into my room and sat next to her on my couch. "Ok, so i just had to get this off my chest and tell you, I like you. Ok, well that's an understatement, but lets just call it 'like' for now."
I sat there stunned into silence and overjoyed. SHE LIKES ME. SHE LIKES ME! I kept repeating in my mind. I felt like the most happiest person in the world. I quickly took her hand and told her how i feel in thoughts.
You just made me the most happiest man in the world. I cant believe you 'like' me back. If I were to die right now, I would be dying the happiest person to ever live and die. If that makes sense. What i mean to say is that i 'like' you too!
I thought to her smiling. She quickly turned and kissed me, filled with passion and heat. I'm glad we don't have to breath, I thought.
She pulled away and giggled. I smiled and she reluctantly got up and put on Romeo and Juliet. I really didn't pay any attention to the movie but Bella did and I guess it had something to do with me whispering Romeo's parts in her ear but it doesn't matter. She looked as if she could cry, she would be doing so right now.
What does this make us? I thought.
