Chapter 14

Nightmares

BPOV

I stayed with Edward that night, due to the run in with Jacob and the fact that I now had NO car!

I was pissed.

They'd handed me a form for my insurance company, claiming my car was 'totaled' and what they estimated value of it was, which was crap, but I knew it was all Jake, knowing what a connection I had to that car, it was just like Edwards original one, I had bought it a few years used and in really good condition, but if we ever went out, Jake refused to ride in it, instead we took his stupid Rabbit everywhere, I just grinned and bared it, knowing Jake was 'proud'.

Edward made simple chicken salads for dinner and we had some wine, he kept staring at my cheek and I could see him seething. I just looked up from my eyelashes and smiled.

I let him know I was tired and was going to turn in early.

He cleared the dishes and walked me to the room.

He tucked me in and kissed me on the forehead "I love you" he said and turned off the light and walked out.

I smiled and slept finally took over.

I'm not sure how long I'd been asleep, but I knew that it was long enough for the nightmares to start.

I was running and running and my clothes were torn and I had blood running down my face, my legs ached and my feet hurt and I was out of breath.

All I could hear was a deep voice laughing and calling after me, 'Belllllaaaa', Bellllaaaaa', where are you my sweet? I need you… I want you and I WILL have YOU!!! No one else will ever have you!!! Especially Edward, he will never touch you the way I do and he will never love you the way I do!'

I woke up screaming and shaking and I was in a cold sweat.

I felt arms around me and started screaming and flailing.

"Shhhhh, Bella, it's o.k., it's Edward, I won't hurt you, calm down, breath."

I started to breathe and slowly calm down.

"Now my love, tell me what was scaring you so." Edward whispered.

"I'm not sure, it ended and then I forgot, it happens a lot, but tonight seemed more real, like I was really being hurt." I whispered.

"It could have been from what happened today Bella, it could have just brought some bad memories. It'll be O.K., nothing and no one will ever hurt you again, I promise!"

I leaned into Edwards chest and just started sobbing. He rubbed small circles on my back and kissed my head.

I fell back into sleep and awoke on his perfect chest.

He must have been awake because I felt him smile and then felt him kiss my head.

"Love, we've got things to do." Edward said,

"I can't go to school looking like this, what will people say?" I asked.

"If you stay, he'll know he's won! We can't let him think that. Your dad said he was let out because of Billy posting bail, it's been kept hush, hush, so unless he slips, he's here and we need to keep strong, everyone knows you're clumsy, we'll just tell them you fell, no biggie. Don't give him the satisfaction of winning, besides today's a half day, remember, we have a big assembly this afternoon for the football team to go to State." Edward said.

'I guess you're right. Let's go shower." I smiled.

He lead me to the shower and helped me undress.

We got into the shower and he lathered me up and washed my hair and then I returned the favor.

We got out of the shower and he dried me off and again I returned the favor, then we got each other dressed.

Today was school spirit day and we wore jeans and our school t-shirts and both put on our red Chucks.

We looked at each other and smiled.

We were a sight.

We left hand in hand and went to get our usual coffee and pastries.

We arrived at school a few minutes early and he walked me to class, kissing me and smiling before he left.

A few minutes later, my phone was ringing.

I wish I was snuggled in bed with you right now

~E

I smiled and text him back.

We have a lifetime ahead of us my love.

Class started and I couldn't wait until assembly time.

I gave my students and easy day, they had a simple true and false quiz on Romeo and Juliet and them free time.

I sat and text Alice with wedding details. I can't believe I was excited about the plans.

Though most of it she would take care of, she informed me Edward and I had flowers to pick out and cakes to pick.

I asked her if we could all do the cake testing together, that way we could pick the most popular cakes and everyone would be happy.

She agreed and said we'd meet and 'Sweets R Us' for our cake testing's tomorrow at 3p.m.

Edward and I were to go and pick flowers tomorrow.

I agreed and told her to call me later.

Another text.

You will pay for getting me arrested! What happened yesterday to you will seem like a blessing!

Mark my words, Bella! You will be mine!!!!

JAKE!

I dropped my phone and gasped.

One of my favorite students came running over and asked if I was o.k.

I nodded yes and told her I'd forgotten to take something out for dinner.

She giggled and said her mom did that all the time as well.

She picked up my phone and handed it back to me.

EPOV

I can't wait until assembly and to see my Bella!

It was fast approaching.

20 minutes.

Finally!

RING!!! RING!!!

I waited until my kids left and then I headed to Bella's class.

She was sitting at her desk with her head down, crying!

"Bella love, what's the matter?"

She shoved her phone at me and pressed the text button.

I gasped and dropped it on the floor.

"Did you forward that to Charlie?"

She shook her head 'no'.

"Bella, we have to." I picked up the phone and forwarded it to Charlie and then called him.

"Isn't that a violation or something of his bail? It's a real threat, we know how his temper is! If it isn't him, it'll be one of his damn friends! Bella can not and WILL NOT be left alone at anytime!"

I listened as Charlie told me what was going to happed and what we needed to do.

We were to have someone posted outside of my house whenever Bella was there and she's need to stay with me for the next few weeks until the original court date.(They considered the text 'hearsay').

We would need to make sure someone was with her at all times, preferably one of us guys, the girls were tough, but no match for Jacob and his friends.

He told me to call him once we got home tonight and he'd be over to go over the rest.

"Bella, let's get to assembly, it's getting ready to start." I said.

She nodded, I dried her tears and we walked to assembly.

"We need to go in there like nothing is wrong, O.K.?"

"O.K., she said weakly."

We walked in hand and hand and took our seats in the teachers area.

We watched Emmett walk up to the microphone and introduce his winning team.

The entire crowd cheered and Emmett looked like the proud rooster!

He spoke about their plans for state domination and how they would rule against Olympia High Saturday.

He encouraged everyone to be there and to wear their Spartan Pride and if our team won by a landslide, meaning 30 or more points, he'd wear a Toga to school on Monday.

The entire gym erupted in laughter and cheers and cat calls.

The principal then walked up and wished the team good luck and said that if we had just as many people at the game tomorrow night as the opposing team, he'd wear a Toga on Monday too.

The laughter and calls were even louder and Emmett walked up and hugged the principal.

After the assembly we walked up to Emmett and I showed him Bella's phone.

I thought Emmett was going to explode there on the spot.

He saw Jake walking across the gym and glared at him.

Jake just smiled and blew a kiss to Bella, she shuttered.

My dad came over that night and I found out what they were planning.

We'd also had Jasper and Alice come over and Emmett and Rosalie.

They all knew the plan and we would never leave Bella alone, not for a second!

At that, Bella spoke.

"I need to go to my place and get some things. Rosalie and Alice can go with me, the 3 of us are a force to be reckoned with. We'll be fine. I promise." I said, looking into Edwards eyes and holding his hand.

"O.K., but quickly! Pack only what you need, we'll buy anything else." Edward said.

"I'll have a police man waiting for you, incase." Charlie said sternly, so no fits were thrown.

We left to go my apartment.

When we arrived, the place was in shambles.

I walked into the bedroom and screamed.

The girls come running in and looked at me.

They gasped and we immediately left the room.

"Bella, we'll go to the store and get the necessities and then this weekend, we'll go shopping and get you some new clothes, I don't thing anything in there is salvageable." Alice said.

We went down to the police officer and told him what happened, he called for back up and told us to get to Edwards, an officer would come and get our statements.

We stopped by a grocery store and bought a few necessities for Bella like toothpaste, shampoo, etc…

We'd have to leave early fro Olympia tomorrow and do a short shopping trip before the game.

We arrived back at Edwards and he rushed outside to hug Bella, who looked a little in shock.

"Thanks Rosalie and Alice, I've got her now, go home and we'll see you in the morning, we'll be leaving about 10a.m." Edward said.

"No Edward, we're leaving about 8a.m., we've got to get there early and do some shopping for Bella, she has no clothes, nothing was left. You'll have to wash what she has on and she'll have to wear those tomorrow. She'll have to borrow something of yours for bed, I know that doesn't bother you, so get her inside and rested." Alice demanded.

With that, I put my arm around her waist and led her inside.

We went upstairs and I put on soft music and lit candles, drew her a bubble bath and undressed her.

"Bella honey, sit in here and relax. I'll be right back, I'm putting these in the wash and I'll be right back, 5 minutes!" I assured her.

I went to the laundry room, which thankfully my mother had put upstairs and started it. I put my clothes in as well, since we needed to show school spirit tomorrow as well.

I picked up the phone and called my dad, asking if he'd stop by on his way home from the hospital, I told him a brief summary about what happened and said he'd bring a few things with him for Bella. I thanked him and went back to my sweet Bella.

I walked into the bathroom and she was sitting in the tub with her eyes closed.

I leaned against the door and watched her, she was beautiful personified!

I couldn't get enough of her.

I cleared my throat as to not scare her and she motioned for me to sit and talk.

I jumped up on the counter and talked to her for a few minutes and when she said she was ready to get up, I helped her out so she wouldn't slip (it was so very possible).

I told her my dad was coming by to take a look at her and make sure she wouldn't go into shock or anything.

I gave her my red plaid boxers and a black wife beater top, I then sat her on the bed and brushed her hair for her. I loved that she was letting me do this for her, it seemed to relax her and I relaxed and aroused me, I know, I'm a dog for being aroused at a time like this, but it was my Bella's strawberry shampoo that was doing it to me!

There was a knock at the door, I tucked Bella in the bed and went to see who it was.

"Dad! Great to see you!" I gave him a hug.

"You to son, were is the beautiful Bella hiding?" Carlisle asked.

"She 's in bed, but not sleeping, we were waiting on you, but you're early, you don't usually finish until later on Friday." I questioned.

"I told them I had some personal matters to deal with tomorrow and of course, they all know about Emmett's game, so they're not going to question me." Carlisle said.

"Bella, hi, how are you feeling sweetie?" Carlisle asked.

"Tired and stressed and sore and my head is spinning!" I said.

"Good, all normal. I'm going to give you a shot to help you sleep tonight and them some pills incase you have trouble sleeping the next few nights o.k.? Also, something for you incase you start to fell down or off, Got it?" Carlisle asked.

"Yes sir." Bella weakly replied.

"What?; No tantrum? No fits Bella? That's so unlike you. You usually have several fits and yell at me to go away with the pills and shots." Carlisle replied.

"I just want to be well for Edward, I want our lives to be only happy things and I want it to start soon!" Bella demanded.
