End of Chapter 2
I followed Charlie into the house, he walked past the other officers and into the cozinha where he motioned for me to take a seat. I sat down watching him as he took the ice pack off his head and ran his hand over his head, wincing when he touched a tender spot on his head. His hand came back with blood, he shook his head and walked over to the sink, rinsing it down the drain before turning back to face me.
"Edward, why did you come back?" He asked cautiously.
Ummm because I spend every night with your daughter? No I couldn't say that. Because I knew that Bella has gone missing....nope couldn't tell him that either unless I wanted to be a suspect.
"I had just gotten início and Carlisle has a police scanner. It went off with your address, I knew I had to come make sure you both were alright." I said as I lied to him.
"Oh, yes I suppose they did announce the address." He said mais to himself then me. "Edward, after you left..." Charlie said as he came back and sat down across from me. "After you left...well I don't remember much except for being hit in the head." He said as he reached up and touched the ice pack.
I was pretty sure that Charlie had a concussion, he probably should be going to the hospital for a MRI or CT scan, but with what I knew...I knew that he would not be going anywhere any time soon.
"When I came to," He said slowly. "Bella was gone, I don't know what happened. She was making dinner, she said she had to run upstairs to get something and that's the last thing I remember." Charlie cried as he put his head in his hands, his tears flowing down his arms onto the table.
I was shocked, Alice had been right. She was gone. It sounded like she didn't leave to get away, on her own choices..but she was forced..taken. Who would take her away from her family, her friends...from me?
Chapter 3
I felt myself following Charlie into depression. I felt myself spiraling into self doubt, hate, distrust, disbelief and anger. This was my fault, if I hadn't left her, if I would have stayed while she made dinner. If I would have stayed, then she would be in my arms right now, safe.
"Edward?" Charlie asked.
I didn't realize I had stood up, he was sitting in his chair looking up at me, trying to figure out what was going on.
"Sorry," I said as I sat down.
"I know you're worried about her, don't worry..we'll find her." He said. The way he said it...it was like he was trying to convince himself mais then he was trying to convince me.
I was about to try and comfort Charlie when my phone rang again in my pocket. I moved slowly, reaching into my pocket and putting it to my ear without looking to see who it was....I already knew.
"Alice?" I guessed.
"You need to go check her room." She said quickly.
"What?"
"Edward, [b]you[/i] need to go check her room." She said again.
"What did you see?" I asked as I stood up again, raising one finger to Charlie as be began to ask me a question.
"There is something in her room, it is hidden just for you to find. You have to go find it...it might be the only way." She said sadly.
"Alright I will look, call me if anything changes." I said as I closed the phone, slowly turning back to face Charlie.
"Is everything alright?" He asked.
"Alice is very worried about Bella, she wanted to come down here...to do whatever she could." I said as I made up the lie.
"Oh, that was sweet of her." Charlie said as he thought of my sister.
"Charlie, she thinks I should look in Bella's room. Do you mind?" I asked.
"We have already looked there, Edward."
"I'm sure you have, but please can I go look? Please? For Alice?" I pleaded.
"We've already looked, there is no evidence." He said..wincing when he moved his head.
"Maybe you should have that checked out." I said, pointing to his head.
"I'm fine, just a headache." He said, shaking his head. If I ever wondered where Bella got her stubbornness from.....
"Edward," Charlie said as he stood up, leaning on the mesa, tabela twice to support himself as he got dizzy. "We've already looked, but if it will help you...go ahead. You can go check her room." He said as he started walking into the living room.
I was about to thank him when I realized he gave me permission to go, and well I didn't need to be told twice. I followed him into the living room, turning at the stairs and taking them two at a time, doing my best to keep my pace slow.
When I reached the topo, início of the stairs, I turned and ran to her door. I opened it quickly, forgetting for just a segundo as I opened it...thinking I would scare her...but no one was in the room.
I sighed to myself as I walked in, sitting on her bed. It looked like she had just walked out of the room, like she would be right back..but she wouldn't. That was just the thought I needed to get myself going...to look for the sign that Alice said was in the room.
I walked around her small room, smelling for anything that wasn't normal. At first the only thing I could smell was Bella's morango shampoo..the smell breaking my still heart, forcing me to focus on the challenge of finding her.
I had made my way around the room 3 times before a new scent hit my nose. The only thing I could tell por the smell was that the person who left it was not human.
I followed that smell around the room to the loose floor boards where I had hidden Bella's pictures and cd's a few months ago.
I looked around, making sure that no one was watching me as I pulled the boards out of the way. Once pulled back, there was a small envelope sitting in the space..it's composição literária very over the top. It was addressed to me....with the rest of my family's names listed below.
I wanted to rip it open right there and start the hunt for Bella, but written on the envelope was this note:
"Do not open now, you must open at home. I have what you want, what you need...she cried for you.
Do not read until you are home...I will know."
My blood ran cold as ice, this person had Bella, he took her!! She had cried for me, and this person took her away...
I grabbed the envelope, afraid of what would happen if I didn't follow directions. I replaced the board in the floor before turning and walking down the stairs as slowly as I could, my expression blank.
"Nothing?" Charlie asked from the couch.
"No, nothing. I think I need to go be with my family, will you do me a favor Charlie?" I asked, knowing he had no reason to promise me anything.
"Yes?"
"If any thing changes, will you call me?" I begged.
"Yes Edward, now go be with your family." He said sadly.
I nodded as I turned and walked out the front door, the segundo I was secured in my car I called Alice.
"Alice, get everyone together. The.....monster who took her left me a note." I said as I accelerated to my car's limit...racing to get back to my family so that we could begin looking for Bella.
