p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"Bella's POV/p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"Edward walked with me in his arms and placed me gently on the couch where there was a blanket and pillow waiting for me. After he placed me onto the couch he wrapped the blanket around my legs to ensure i would be as comfy as possible before sitting down next to me and taking my hand into his. The whole family minus Jasper and Emmett were gathered around the living room all wearing the same expressions of worry and concern which certainly didn't make me feel any less nervous. I could feel my heart beating extremely fast against my ribs and it was beginning to hurt./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'Are you sure you want to do this Bella?' Carlisle asked me coming over and kneeling in front of me and taking my free hand to check my pulse. As the minutes ticked by I was beginning to regret my decision but I knew if I was going to be able to move on then I had to do this. Both for myself and my mother. I needed to know why he did this. Why did he hate me so much? I had so many questions that I felt I needed the answers to before I could begin to move on./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'Yes I need to do this. I deserve answers from him' I told him. I just hoped I would be able to get through this without breaking down again. I want to show that I'm strong enough to get through this. I want to make my mum proud and show to her that I'm okay. I just hope I can do that./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'Of course you do but if it gets too much for you please tell one of us. Your still very weak and I don't want you getting over tired as I'm afraid it will make your injuries worse sweetheart. Do you want all of us here or just me and Edward?' Carlisle asked me. I knew the answer immediately. They were my family and I needed them to be there./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'If nobody minds, I would like all of you to stay. Your my family now and I need you all here' I told them all blushing bright red. Edward squeezed my hand in encouragement./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'Of course, we will all be here if that's what you want Bella, we all love you and please just remember that no matter what Charlie says. You will always be a part of this family and we wont let him hurt you again' Carlisle says before placing a careful kiss on my forehead. I don't think my heart could be filled with anymore love than it is right now. I feel like I finally belong and never felt happier in ages than I do being here with these amazing people./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'Thank you Carlisle, for everything' I say trying to keep the tears from falling once again. These emotions were so overwhelming and just couldn't seem to stop crying all the time which was beginning to become frustrating. Carlisle smiled and handed me a tissue to wipe my eyes. Edward was still sat next to me with my hand in his and when my eyes met his it was like the whole room suddenly disappeared. I felt calm and collected and i felt the love pouring out of his eyes. His gaze sends delicious tingles through my body that seem to warm my whole body./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'I love you Bella' He says to me which of course makes me blush bright red but i cant help the smile that comes with those words./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'I love you too' I tell him and move closer to him. He rearranges me so i am laided against his chest, the rest of the family watching us with large smiles on their faces. I know what im about to face with my father is going to be hard but with these people around the room here to protect and be there for me i don't feel afraid. I just know that they wouldn't let him lay a hand on me./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"Carlisle is standing next to the couch and esme comes and sit next to me on the couch and places my feet on her lap. Alice and Rosalie are next to Carlisle on the other couch and i realise that they are surrounding me so im protected and it makes me feel even safer and makes me love them even more and this gesture shows to me that they love me as well. They had done nothing but keep me safe. I know Edward blames himself for Charlie kidnapping me but there just wasn't anything he could of done and I wish he would believe that./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;" /p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'You ready Bella?' Carlisle asks me sending me a encouraging smile. I take a deep breathe and nod my head. I felt my heart pick up in speed and my palms became sweaty with nerves. I was suddenly regretting agreeing to this but now it was too late as the front door and in came jasper and Emmett with an angry looking Charlie. They were holding on to his elbows and he was struggling to get out of their grip. I felt Edward rubbing soothing circles on my back and for the first time it did nothing. The anger on Charlies face scared more than it has ever before. I could just tell this meeting was not going to go very well at all./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"Jasper and Emmett brought him further into the room and pretty much threw him roughly onto the armchair across the room from where I was and I was really grateful about that. I definitely couldn't stand to be so close to him right now or ever again. I hated him for what he did to me and would always hate him. Jasper and Emmett stood on each side of him and told him to stay put. I didn't know alot about vampires as me and Edward didn't get a chance to talk about it fully but one thing I did know they were quite strong and could easily stop him from getting up from that chair./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"Carlisle stepped forward towards him but turned to me and asked me if he minded if he said something before this went any further and knowing I needed a few minutes before I could speak I nodded at him. He smiled his fatherly smile at me before changing his face to one of absolute anger before facing my father. I cringed. I had never seen him so angry and even though I knew he wouldn't hurt me it still scared me./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'I just wanted to get one thing straight Charlie. You will listen to what Bella has to say and answer any questions she has and whilst she is speaking you will not interrupt. Believe me when I say if you upset her I will personally make sure that you feel twice as much pain as you have put her through. Do you understand me?' Carlisle said very loudly. I could hear the anger in his voice and I knew he meant every single word. I know Carlisle didn't look like a man that could scare someone shitless but by the look on Charlies face I could tell he was frightened./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'Whatever' Charlie grumbled. He sat back further in the chair and even though he might look scared, I could tell his anger was still there. I could see Carlisle shake with his anger and I was becoming to become worried about him when he finally stepped back and came and stood behind the couch and placed his hand on my shoulder in comfort. I smiled up at him and thanked him. If I wasn't in Edwards arms and had Carlisle and Esme with me as well as the others I don't know whether I would be able to do this. The room was silent for a minute whilst I gathered my thoughts and took a deep breathe. When I was ready I lifted my gaze to meet Charlies and he was glaring at me with such hatred that my words got struck in my throat for a second./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"' First of all I just want you to know that no matter what you say to me today will not change a thing. These people are my family and as far as I'm concerned your not my father no more and you haven't been since you first hit me. Do you have any idea what that was like? I had just lost my mother and you were supposed to take care of me but instead all you have done is cause me so much pain. I want to know why?' I asked not breaking eye contact with him. I needed to know why he did it. Why did he hate me so much? So many emotions flicked across his face at my words and I couldn't make out whether that was a good or bad thing./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'Do you really want me to answer that?' He asked anger in his voice./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'Yes I think I deserve to know why' I told him trying to keep my voice steady./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'I did it because you deserved every single bit of it. You are selfish and think the whole world evolves around you. You didn't give me a second thought when your mother died, you didn't give me a chance to grieve. You just thought that you were the only one hurting but YOU WEREN'T! AND AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED IT SHOULD OF BEEN YOU THAT DIED THAT DAY BECAUSE YOUR NOTHING BUT A WASTE OF SPACE' he screamed at me. He tried standing up but Jasper and Emmett kept hold of him. I felt anger course through my body at his words./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'HOW THE HELL DID I DESERVE IT? I was just a little girl. I was 10 Charlie, of course I needed looking after. And I am not selfish. I did everything I could to make things easier for you! I cooked, I cleaned for you. YOU WERE MY FATHER AND YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO LOOK AFTER ME! But no you've spent 6 years beating me till I was unconscious and then you raped me! I did not deserve that!' I shouted at him, the tears of anger flowing down my face. How dare he say that? I wanted nothing more than to get off this couch and show him just how much I had suffered but Edward holding me stopped me from doing that./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'YOU DESERVED IT BECAUSE YOUR A FUCKING STUPID LITTLE SLUT THAT IS BETTER OFF DEAD AND THE ONLY THING I'M SORRY FOR IS NOT KILLING YOU WHEN I HAD THE CHANCE! AND NOW YOU ARE JUST USED GOODS AND NOBODY WILL EVER WANT YOU!' he shouted at me. Tears were flowing down my cheeks and I felt myself shaking with anger and pain at his words. I promised myself I wouldn't let him get to me anymore yet those words really hit home to me. I had one more thing to say then I wanted him out of here./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"' I'm not a fucking slut! And your a liar because I have the most amazing family around me that love me and care about me and nothing you say will change that. I hate you dad and I hope you know that mum would hate you for this. I hope you rot in prison and I never want to see you ever again now GET OUT!' I screamed at him. At my words Emmett and Jasper picked him up and dragged him towards the front door but not before he said something back to me./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'You will regret this, just remember that! YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS' He shouted at me whilst being dragged out the front door. As soon as the door closed I burst into tears. Edward pulled me closer to him and wrapped me up in his arms. I buried my head in his chest and just cried and cried. That was much harder than I thought it was going to be. I don't know what I expected exactly but definitely not that./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'Ssh Bella sweetheart its okay, your going to be okay. Nothing he said was the truth and we all love you so much. We won't let him hurt you Bella I promise' I heard Carlisle say while stroking my hair trying to comfort me. It worked a little bit and I managed to calm down enough to slow the tears a little. I looked up from Edward chest and looked into Carlisle's eyes and saw nothing but love. I leaned forward and hugged him hard. He hugged me back./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'Thank you Carlisle. I love you all too' I told him and looked at all the remaining family left in the room to show them how much they mean to me. They all had smiles on their faces and I could see their love for me in their eyes. I looked into Edwards eyes and as always saw so much love there for me that I felt it flow through my body. He eyes were so full of emotion. He took my cheeks in his hands before placing a small kiss to my lips which sent fireworks through my entire body just like every other time he kissed me but this felt even more intense./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'I love you Bella, always no matter what people say. Your beautiful, caring and got a heart of gold and i will never love someone as much as I love you never forget that' He said and smiled my favourite crooked smile. God I love that smile./p
p style="margin: 20px 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Trebuchet, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"'I love you too Edward, forever' I told before snuggling into his chest. I was physically and mentally exhausted and it wasn't long before I felt myself fall to sleep in his arms./p

I love you all too' I told him and looked at all the remaining family left in the room to show them how much they mean to me. They all had smiles on their faces and I could see their love for me in their eyes. I looked into Edwards eyes and as always saw so much love there for me that I felt it flow through my body. He eyes were so full of emotion. He took my cheeks in his hands before placing a small kiss to my lips which sent fireworks through my entire body just like every other time he kissed me but this felt even more intense./p

Your beautiful, caring and got a heart of gold and i will never love someone as much as I love you never forget that' He said and smiled my favourite crooked smile. God I love that smile./p

I was physically and mentally exhausted and it wasn't long before I felt myself fall to sleep in his arms./p
