u talking to me?
I crept through the halls of the Cullen's house, noticing no one was here. No sound came from ANY room. Just...silence! I opened the door that was shut that lead to Carlisle's room. I opened it, and saw some familiar person lying on the bed. I smiled, and noticed that Jacob was sleeping. I closed the door, and skipped down the stairs. I met Edward at the bottom, and I leapt into his arms. I kissed him on the cheek, and he then kissed me on the lips. I held him to me, and then Emmett flicked us in the back in the head a moment later. Rosalie started gigling.
'Sure!' I thought. 'I'll be there for you Bella-JUST DOESN'T FOLLOW THROUGH NOW THAT YOU GOT WHAT YOU WANTED!' I yelled in my brain, and then I let go of Edward and he went to pulverise Emmett for ruining the moment of our kiss. I defcided to talk to Carlisle, adn get the 411 on Jake. I walked onto the porch where Carlisle stood, watching as Renesmee and Alice played in the yard along with Esme. He smiled at the scenary, and I did too. I walked up behind him, and I rested my hand on his shoulder.
"Are you okay Carlisle?" I asked him.
"Yeah, I'm fine Bella!" He said and I sat on the railing of the porch fence. He placed his hands on the railing and looked at thescenary again.
"So what's up with Jacob?" I asked him and its like a different Carlisle awoke in that instant.
"Oh, he's doing fine! Matter of fact, I think he's ready to see people!" Carlisle said and looked at Esme, Alice, and Rosalie, and then beckoned me to go upstairs to see if Jake was awake so we could talk.
---------------------------------WE GOT TO THE top of the stairs, and he led me into Jake's room. I smiled as Jake turned his head and his face lit up with a sparkle of life. Carlisle operated on him for a quick moment, and then he left closing the door letting us talk alone.
"How ya' doing Jake?" I asked him.
"I've been better. Being a werewolf helps ALOT, but if I was still human I'd probablu be dead..." Jacob stopped as those words make me flinch a bit. "Sorry!" He said and looked out the window and into the sky.
"Jake, what happened?" I asked him. "I mean, other then the roof caving in..." I trailed off and he continued to stare out the window. I waited as I heard the breath he took.
"I was being taken care of by Carlisle and some others. And he left me alone for the slightest bit of sense that I needed rest, when Ili walked in." And my eyes widened a little knowing that she could have killed him. "And," He went on. "She pulled the plug. When she entered after a couple minutes Carlisle left, there was blood EVERYWHERE! On the walls, floor, cielings, everywhere. And I saw bloody foot prints walk away. Ili. And then everything went black. Then Carlisle, brought me here and here we are!" He finished and I sighed.
"I'm sorry!" I said taking his hand in comfert.
"Its fine Bella. Really!" He said and he took his hand away. "Can I get some sleep now?" He asked.
"Sure." I said and left the room, closing the door just as I saw Jacob close his eyes.
-----------------------------------I WALKED BACK down the stairs, and Edward was in the kitchen helping Rosalie and Alice with the food they were making. Esme walked in with a tray of plates, and left to put them on the table in the Dining Room.
"What's going on?" I asked and everybody looked up at me. Edward walked to me with a smile and a hug, and the others went back to work.
"Youre dad is coming over. Along with Renee!" He said and I stared at him in shock!
"Youre kidding! Right?" I said and he chuckled.
"No, unfortunatly we aren't!" Esme said handing me the napkins and the little basket of silver ware. I sighed in mis-treatment, and went to place these around the table. Edward turned back around, and went back to work.
-----------------------LATER THAT NIGHT AROUND 6:45 PM, a knock came to the door. We all held our breaths, and I slowly went to the door. I grabbed the door knob, and took a breath. I could see Charlie at the door with something in his hand. Then another figure appeared in the window frame of the door. I opened the door, and saw Renee. I saw another car pull into the driveway, and it parked. The person jumped out of the car, and came running our way. The person looked familiar. Then I gasped in shock. I grabbed Charlie's arm, and threw him inside along with Renee. I then slammed the door shut, and Edward was taking my parents into the back room upstairs. Alice took Renesmee to the room where my parents were, knowing this would be too much! I grabbed Edward's hand, and closed my eyes. I tried to force my shield out to protect us all, but then just as I began to extend it the front door BURST open!
