Bella’s P.O.V:
I sat all alone in the empty cell. Edward and Alice had left with Carlisle a while ago and Charlie was still doing some paperwork. I was waiting for him to let me out. I asked him for a soda but he didn’t give in. He gave me back my cell-phone and let me text and talk and e-mail and all that-but I wasn’t aloud to leave. I was now texting mom and was trying to call Edward-but every time I called I got a new text from Renée. Charlie came over to the cell and opened the lock. “Come out, Bells.” I smiled, “Finally! Can I go back to Alice?” He sighed, “Yeah. I heard you talking to her. Plus Rosalie invited you over for a sleepover. I’m just going to drop you off.” I hugged his neck. “Thank you! So what are you going to do about this kidnapper?” “Nothing yet.” I sighed, “I hope you do soon.” I didn’t really matter. I knew the Cullen’s and hopefully the wolves would get them.
Charlie helped me into the truck and drove off a ways into the Cullen’s property. He let me out and said by and drove away. I climbed the stairs and knocked on the door. Rosalie opened the door and smiled sweetly, “Hi, Bella.” She hugged me awarkwardly and led me into the living room where Esme and Alice were. Nail polish, fake finger-nails, hot irons, curling irons, packs of earrings, my favorite soda, pens, pencils, wallets, notebooks, and Alice’s laptop. I looked over at Alice with a clueless expression. “Rosalie’s apology.” I looked over at Rosalie. “I’m sorry for everything.” Esme picked up the green metallic nail polish and started painting her nails in my background while Rosalie hugged me. I hugged her back, willingly. “I’m sorry.” I said to her. She looked confused, “For what? What the hell did you do?” I blushed, “Anything and Everything.” She smiled and picked up the soda bottle and poured it into a new glass and handed it to me. “Thanks.” I gulped it down quickly and joined into the makeup and nails and hair ironing. That night I fell asleep with my head in Alice’s lap. She stayed their all night until I woke up at 2:00 a.m. Alice had a worried expression on her clear and beautiful face. “Victoria’s back.” The only difference that had changed was that Edward and Emmett lay on their sides beside me-Edward stroking my hair with a cracked expression and Emmett thinking intently. Jasper was pacing back and forth creating a track in the golden carpet that lay all over the Cullen house. “She is?” I asked my eyes getting worried. Esme was holding my fragile hand in half a second after the words came out of my pinky lips. Edward forced a smile after I woke up and said everything was going to be alright. I nodded and let my brown hair fall over my eyes. It was silky and it rubbed against my lips as it fell.
Alice’s P.O.V:
I let Bella sleep in my lap for the night and at about 1:30 I had a disturbing vision with Victoria holding a knife up to Bella’s fragile neck. I shuddered and the boys came home from their guy night. Carlisle saw Bella sleeping in my lap peacefully so he warned the boys to whisper. Edward came in with his eyes wide like he had when we were in the ballet studio with sadistic James. Victoria hadn’t showed up their-nor had Laurent so we were lucky to only fight one. Of course Edward had gone all out and was freaking out with a tremendous deal. As he walked in he looked down on Bella with her engagement ring on her finger. His eyes were heartbroken. Rosalie was then stroking her fingers over Bella’s forehead. Emmett picked Rosalie up and told her to go and get Bella something in case she woke up. She went and got a blueberry yogurt that Bella now had smeared across her lips as she listened to our conversation with interest. Edward was still stroking her hair and she was now sitting in my lap; rather than lying in it. I was braiding a thin yet terribly tangled piece of her silky brown hair. I got it untangled and put the little rubber band around the braid end. Edward smiled briefly at his fiancée’s braid. Then went back to stroking her hair. My cell rang and I picked it up. It read Unknown Name; Unknown Number: 349-7068. I shrugged and almost answered when Edward grabbed my wrist, and said, “Let the machine pick it up.” I nodded and the first thing I saw was Victoria on the phone at the drugstore in Port Angeles. “I have a deal for you guys.”
