Broken
Chapter 13
"Wake up!" I hear Rose shout and we all pop our heads up.
"The doctors are with Bella now, she's awake!" Rose smiled and bounced in place.
Thankfully it was only our family, it was below James to sleep in the waiting room.
"I just wanted you all to know, I've got to get back in there, she can't talk and is struggling, I'll be back out soon." Her eyes landed on me with a small smile.
"OK, we've got the advantage here, James isn't back, so all we need is for Bella to give her consent as to who she wants to see." Alistair smiled.
"Bella is asking to see her dad and brother." Rose came out smiling. "She can't talk because of her wired jaw, but she can text it out." Rose smiled.
"Should we let her know what's going on? Tell her that Alistair needs to speak with her?" Charlie asked.
"Yes, we've got to keep James away! If he gets a chance to see her, I'm afraid he'll threaten her into staying again. She won't survive another beating." Carlisle spoke up.
"OK, we'll go slowly." Emmett nodded.
They were gone for almost half an hour before James showed up.
"Heard my wife is awake." He deadpanned.
"Don't be so happy." Rose snapped.
"You'd do well to keep those lips closed." James snapped at her.
"You son of a …." Esme pulled her back and whispered in her ear, making Rose smile a nice evil smile.
After about two hours, Charlie and Emmett come out, red eyed and Emmett nods his head towards me, until he sees James in the corner. I shake my head no.
"Uh, Alistair she wants to see you now." Emmett stated.
"OK, thanks." He nodded, picking up his briefcase and walking back.
"Where is he going?" James growled.
"To see Bella, she asked for him." I snapped, not being able to hold it any longer.
"She's talking?" he asked and we all shrugged.
He huffed and walked to the desk asking for any information and the nurse politely told him that there was nothing she could tell him.
He stomped off with his henchmen close behind.
"Walk with me to get coffee Edward." Emmett smiled.
"So, we talked to Bella about you going in to see her. She was against it at first, doesn't want to put you out, make you feel obligated. I had to tell her how you felt, I was afraid if I didn't that she'd run back to James, thinking she deserves it. I told her everything! About how you've been here from the first minute and haven't left. About how you want to take James out, but for her safety you haven't done a thing.
She's agreed to come back to Forks, I'm hoping Alistair is getting the divorce papers together with her now. Dad has the restraining order, but it's only so good. We're going to have her at your parent's house, your mom is taking a leave of absence from the business to stay with Bella and help her heal. Mentally, Emotionally and Physically. She'll need us all!
Your dad has already called for additional security and bulletproof glass throughout.
He's also having two panic rooms installed, one up and one downstairs, he doesn't want Bella or your mom in any type of danger. These will be top of the line, fire proof rooms." Emmett sighed. "Also, you'll be able to come and go without suspicion, and she's going to need you. You need her, help heal each other." Emmett hugged me.
"Thanks Emmett, that means the world to me. I will protect her with my life." I told him sternly.
When we got back to the waiting area Alistair was there talking to everyone.
"The doctors are in talking to Bella, she wants to go home." He sighed and I gasped.
"Home with Esme and Carlisle. She knows her dad has to work as well as her brother and sister in law. She knows she'll need around the clock care and therapy, all of which can be done at mom and dad's home. She doesn't want to leave the house unless it's an emergency." Alistair nodded to each of us.
"OK, so when can she leave?" Rose piped up.
"She's got to be stable for 48 hours first. And that should get the house in order as well. I've got the divorce papers to file, but not until she's out of here. Charlie, you're going to need to head back to Forks. We need a restraining order to keep James out of Forks period! And Bella is going to press other charges as well, so we need all this in place." Alistair said in a serious tone.
"OK, can I go tell her goodbye? Can we have a guard at the door? What about an escort to Forks?" he asked.
"Yes on the guard at the door. I'll work on the escort. And of course, go tell her goodbye." He smiled before Charlie disappeared.
All of a sudden there's commotion and another code for Bella's room.
The security guard took off after the man dressed in black, trying to smother Bella.
