Chapter 8
Nothing really happened afterwards except Sam being really protective. That is... until I got to school the next day.
"No, fucking, way..." (Jessica)
"Something new for your 'gossip'? What made you... Oh shit..." (Lauren)
The sight was unbelievable. Isabella Marie Swan. The most awkward, uncoordinated, bitchy girl I ever knew was tucked under the arm of a leech.
Edward's head whipped toward me as if he heard me. He gave a slight nod.
Woah... did he just nod at me to say he heard my mind?
He nodded again.
'Well... it's not my place to say anything, but good luck.'
I replayed all the bitchy things Bella did to me quickly and smirked. By the shocked look on Edward's face, I guess Bella was successful at being harmless, innocent, non-bitchy.
Laughing a little, I went into the school building.
"Did you know that your sister was dating the hottest boy in our school?"
"We barely talk Jess, and besides, I don't really care about either of them. Bella never was a good sister, and Edward is just not the type. Lean pale boys... Nah"
"Seeing Sam Uley, yeah we can see that Edward is complete opposite of what you like." (J)
"Hot, buff, somewhat cute" (L)
"Like a lovesick puppy" (J)
I just laughed. They were dogs, kind of. And he would never admit it, but he was cute.
"Do you think it's a bit early to move in with him?"
"Well, you are 18 and you graduate after this year. We can all see that you two love each other a lot. It's not like you are marrying him."
"But you did meet him only a few months ago."
We chatted about nothings the whole day and tried not to care about Bella and Edward practically joined at the hip.
Poor Jake. The kid really liked-loved maybe-Bella (although I never understood why). The pup was going to be heartbroken and I could almost see him as a wolf form, all droopy and whiny. Poor Dad, too. He liked Jake too and I believe he secretly shipped Jella, or Bake, or whatever the horrific sounding ship with Bella and Jake was called.
I was in Sam's small house baking like usual when the phone rang.
"Dad? What is it? You have to tell me quick because I have some egg whites to whip up before they get ruined."
"It's Bella, she's in hospital in Seattle."
"...I thought she went to play baseball with the Cullens. What is she doing there?"
Apparently, Bella shouted to Dad that she couldn't stand Forks (+ me) and left. Then Edward chased after her to convince her to come back and his whole family followed (I don't know why), she raced down some stairs, tripped, went flying down 2 flights of stairs and out the window.
...And Dad believed this bullshit?
"I'll call them and I don't think it is a good idea for me to go all the way to Seattle to see if she is okay when it is clear that she doesn't want me anywhere near her."
"Okay. Stay with Sam until I come back. I don't want you alone in an empty house."
"Dad I'm 18 already. But thanks for letting me stay with him. Don't stress yourself out."
Sam came in right after I hung up.
"What is it?"
"My hell of a sister got herself injured and is in Seattle, and it has something to do with the Cullens."
"You mean they broke the treaty?"
"...You're shaking again Sam. And no, I don't think so. She is currently in the hospital and if they did bite her or change her she would already be dead. I'll call Dr. Cullen to hear about what really happened."
He growled, not liking the idea of me talking to Dr. Cullen, but agreed. I called his phone and he picked up immediately.
"Elinya, I suppose you heard about Bella?"
"Yes, Doc. Obviously she didn't roll down 2 flights of stairs and out the window so what really happened?"
"Please, call me Carlisle. Bella did trip and now she has..."
"I know what you are, Carlisle. You forgot that I am mated to the alpha of the pack. So please, don't give me those crappy lies about how my sister went through a fucking window because I know that's not what happened."
He sighed and explained the whole thing about nomad leeches chasing Bella all the way to Seattle.
"I guess the treaty is still intact. I'll tell Sam what you told me."
"Thank you, Elinya."
After the call ended I explained everything to the boys. Paul and Jared grunted and started stuffing their faces with food, and Sam sighed and started eating too.
I'm starting to think they eat to control their temper.
"You not angry?"
"About what?"
"Bella becoming leech's girlfriend."
"How many times do I have to tell you, Paul? I don't care about her becoming a leechlover."
"Leechlover? That's a good one."
We burst out laughing. I guess I made a perfect nickname for Bella.
