I had breakfast ready for Dad before he woke up. He was quiet as he ate. He left to the house when I was washing up the dishes I used. I waited for a while to see if he was coming back and/or waiting to see if he had gone back to the station. After a full thirty minutes, I called the station, and the deputy confirmed that Dad was in, but he was in a mood that he was scaring the deputy. I couldn't ask any more questions before he hung up and my calls stopped going through.

I didn't know what to do. I didn't know whether I should worry or not, I couldn't help myself from worrying anyways. What if he decided to go back out there? What did he know? What did he see? He didn't even look at me, he barely acknowledged my presence.

What happened?

I waited the whole day away stress cleaning and never being able to focus on the television. I waited for Dad; I waited for Jacob. I waited for anything good that would relieve my anxious mental.

I stood up from the couch hearing the door opening.

Dad came in and closed the door, shrugging his jacket off and hanging it up.

"Dad?"

He looked up at me, and sighed, "Bedtime."

"Dad."

"Bed, Celeste."

He didn't want to talk.

I went to my room. I tried to figure out if I had done something wrong. Other than keeping the supernatural world a secret, I couldn't think of anything. Had I done something wrong I wasn't aware of? I thought about that, racking my brain for anything that would seem fine to me but wouldn't be to him. I couldn't think of anything that gave me any clarity.

"Celeste." Bella says laying down next to me.

"Where have you been?"

"Watching over Charlie."

I sighed and laid down, "What happened?"

"He seen Edward too. He went out looking for him today. He almost got himself killed. The wolves were there. Sam told him the truth. Charlie… is processing."

"Is he mad at me?" I asked in a whisper.

"No. He's not."

"It sounded like he was mad at me, when he ordered me to bed."

"He's scared, Celeste. He doesn't know what to do, what to think."

I sighed again.

"Go to sleep. You have tests tomorrow."

"I can't sleep."

"Celeste?"

"Hm?"

"Are you all right?"

"I will be, Bells." I said looking up at the ceiling as I curled onto my side, "Someday, maybe."

"You know I love you, right?"

"I do."

"And you know I'll do my best to stick around."

"Yes."

Bella lifted a hand directly over my face, her palm flames with that dark blue light and then I was falling asleep, harshly.

…

Bella's aura blinded me awake. She was wrapped around me on my bed while her aura pulsed and then I seen what she was protecting me from. Edward stood in the corner of the room.

My heart started racing and I flew up from the bed, Bella's aura blinded me again and I fell backwards onto the floor near my bedroom door. I screamed scrambling backwards as Edward's hand flashed out to me. His hand was deflected in Bella's aura, it made him angrier.

"Celestia?!" Dad yells as he swings open my door and the hallway leaked into my room, Dad's eyes found Edward crouching a few feet in front of me. "No!" Dad roared as Edward launched himself towards me.

Bella clocked Edward across the jaw, from his right, while he was in mid-air. She's a fucking badass, Edward went flying into my closet, the doorway of the closet crumbled into a shape of him before the bottom completely broke apart and he fell onto his side. His skin was cracked and chipped, he's unconscious. I had a strong feeling we had a limited time window; I scrambled to my feet as Dad yelled at me to get up. Dad caught my arm, and he dragged me from my room. We made it to the living room before we were knocked off our feet and then I was staring into Edwards eyes as his frigid, stone hands wrapped around my throat.

"No!" Dad tried to pry Edwards' hands from my neck, and it only took one push from Edward to knock Dads backwards into the end table next to his chair and knocked him out when he fell backwards over the table.

Edward tightened his grasp around my throat, the tears streaming down my face I became of feeling my path for air was being restricted.

"Please, please, please," I begged staring into Edward's black irises, I pushed against his face that had no effect, "Please, please, please, please, please. Edward."

Bella's hands were prying at his hands, I could hear someone yelling outside the house.

Edward glanced around the room swiftly before releasing my neck, I dropped to my knees, I grabbed my neck feeling myself gasp because all I heard was my heartbeat and stared up at him. And then he grabbed me by my arms, and then I felt the whack against my head to knock me unconscious with a flash of blue light.
