We got to the house and Esme said "Oh, sweet girl, your wolf is repaired and cleaned, it should be dry for you in the morning." I smiled at her "Thank you, I really appreciate it, I've had it since I was seven." the girls whisked me upstairs and into a room, I'd never been in. Alice said "This is gonna be your room when your here. Mine and Sierra's is right here, and this door is Jaspers." my room was in between theirs. I said "Well sit down then," I sat on the bed, the girls sat next to me and Jasper sat in front of me I took a breath and squeezed Greyson, and said "First off, the bear has a name now, his name is Greyson. Ok so I was born in LA, but when I was 3 we moved to Arizona. My mom Renee, had to go to work, but she knew she couldn't leave me and Bella alone since we were 3 and 4, so she did what any parent would do and she hired a babysitter. This guy was named Kody and everyone mom talked to said he was an amazing babysitter, he was 27, he babysat lots of children aged 8 months to 9 years old.
She thought he was cute which was another reason she hired him, he was only 4 years older than she was. The first year was great, he was punctual, he was great with me and Bella, he used to always say, I was the cutest little girl in the world. But then he started getting too attached to me, on days when he just had me because Bella was at ballet, he started to watch me when he put me down for a nap he'd sit in the rocking chair while I slept. Then after a few weeks of that, he moved the chair right next to my little toddler bed. Then after a few weeks, instead of laying me down in my bed, he'd lay me down on the floor of my room so he could lay with me..." I took another deep breath and the girls grabbed my hands and I continued "...Once I got used to the new nap spot he started to change what I slept in, first it was a nightgown, leggings, and a sleep sack, so gradually he took the sleep sack away giving me a blanket we could share until eventually, I slept in just the nightgown. Once he realized I would fall asleep just about anywhere in anything, he had me where he wanted me. That's when he started to touch me, and that continued till I was 5.
When I was 5 he started to actually... anyway the first time I remember waking up because it hurt and he told me that when someone loves you, this is the way they show you and it will only hurt for a little bit and that he loved me so much and if I didn't let him show me then he would hurt Bella. That continued till I was 7 because my mom got home early and freaked out, for obvious reasons. She asked me why I didn't tell her and I told her what he told me. That he loved me and that he said it was how one showed someone they loved them and if I told her then he would hurt Bella. Mom immediately put me in therapy, where Miss Maggie told me that wasn't ok and he was a preditor and helped me deal with the emotional damage that caused. Mom noticed I was so afraid of guys after that, so when she told Miss Maggie, she gave me Fluffy and said wolves are protectors and if he is with me then nobody could harm me. After that, I never slept anywhere that wasn't my room, by myself, with the door closed, and was never able to sleep through the night again. I haven't had friends since then either, no one likes the girl that isn't normal, that has a stuffed animal, I got bullied a lot through sixth grade and on."
Sierra said, "Is that why you were crying in the bathroom?" I said "Sierra!" and hid my face in Greyson's fur, Jasper said, "Is someone bullying you?" Sierra said "Sorry." Jasper said, "Hey, Ella, talk to us, is someone being mean to you at school?" I sighed "Lauren Mallory and her three friends." he said, "What is she doing?" I said "Nothing, she just talks Jasper, it's fine." he pulled me into his arms and said, "It's not fine, if someone is hurting you I want to know." Alice and Sierra left as I said "Why? Why do you care so much?" he said, "Because AraBella, I like you, I care about you, I am falling for you." I looked into his gorgeous eyes and said "But why, your handsome, smart, charming, a gentleman. You could do so much better than me." He said, "You think I'm handsome?" I rolled my eyes and giggled "That's what you took from that whole sentence? Your looks?" he said "That's the most important part." I said "Really? And here I thought that fact that you could do so much better would be the important part. You don't want me, I'm broken." he grabbed my face with both hands and said "Get that sentence out of your pretty little head. You are not broken, you may have had a rough childhood, and I may want to murder the perv but you, my princess are perfect just the way you are. And even though you don't believe it, I do want you. And you are the only one I will ever want."
He pulled me into a hug and I didn't even hesitate to hug him back, he ran his finger over the scars on my wrist and said "Are these because of bullies?" I nodded burying my face in his chest as I mumbled "And because of Ryan Johnson." he said, "And who is that?" I said "The new kid last year who was dared to ask me out, he picked me up for the date and ended up shoving me in a lake saying I was delusional to think anyone would ever want to be with me. That I didn't deserve to live." Jasper made a low growling noise so I looked up at him and he said "Ignore people like that, they don't deserve you. Because you are beautiful and amazing." I said "Where did the girls go?" he said "They'll be back. But are you ok?" I smiled at him "Yeah, I think so." the door busted open and the girls were carrying so much crap. They had movies, makeup, acrylic nail kits, clothes, snacks, drinks, music... the whole shebang. Sierra set a plate of pizza rolls in front of me I smiled and picked one up to eat it. I said, "What is happening?" Alice said "Fun. Fun is happening." I said "Why the clothes? Are we going out?" she said "Nope, but we need to choose our outfits for tomorrow, the four of us are going shopping. Your new room needs clothes and decorations."
I said, "Isn't this a guest room?" Sierra said, "Alice told you that it's your room when your here." I said "Isn't it still a guest room? Are your parents ok with this?" Alice groaned and yelled out the door "Esme can you come and tell her she can decorate the room?" Esme who was walking past with laundry popped her head in and said "Decorate away Ella." then walked off. I said "Ok but I don't have money for a shopping trip." Sierra said, "Didn't you say, you'd gladly be my sister?" I warily said "Yes..." She said, "And I'm rich so we are going to spoil you." I looked at Jasper "Can I win this?" he shook his head no trying not to laugh. I sighed letting my head fall back against his chest and said "Alright, a shopping trip to spoil me it is." Jasper looked down at me "I won't let them go too overboard." I said "Yeah somehow I think my version of overboard is drastically different than yours." he shrugged I conceded "Ok whats first?" Alice grinned "Fashion show, Jasper's the judge." Sierra took my hands pulling me up as she said "Come on, you can sit on his lap later, up, up." I blushed and glared at the blonde girl making her smile at me.
