How it started

Mama's girl

(Soffia's Pov)
Two days later

Waking up, I get confused before looking around and remembering we are in the hotel. Rolling over, I see my stuffed bear that Alice and Jasper got me. I grab him and hold him to my chest. Slowly sitting up, I get up and see Alice and Jasper sitting on the couch, staring at the television.

Walking over to them, I tap Alice softly and tilt my head "Why are you guys just staring at the TV?" I ask softly, and Alice turns her head to me and smiles before pulling me onto her lap. "It's nothing, baby. How did you sleep?" she asks as she wraps her arms around me.

"Good, where's Bella?" I ask, tilting my head up to look at her. "Bathroom," she responds before kissing my head. I nod and rest my head against her chest, holding my bear close to me. My head snaps to the door as Bella leaves the bathroom she looks at me and offers a small smile, and I smile back.

"Everyone could get hurt, it's not worth it," Bella says softly. Jasper snaps his head towards her, "Edward's changed since he found you. and none of us wants to look into his eyes for the next hundred years if he loses you. It's worth it," he says before looking away from her.

Suddenly Alice gasped softly, and I moved off her lap to sit next to her, staring at her worriedly "What do you see?" Jasper asked her, "The tracker, he changed courses." Alice says worried. I watch as Jasper quickly grabs a piece of paper and a pencil and sets it in front of her.

I watch as Jasper asks Alice a question, and she draws in like lightning speed. I watch as Bella looks over Alice to see what she's drawing, and I also sit on my knee to see what it is. "So that course James is on now will lead him to a ballet studio?" Bella asked well, looking at the drawing.

"You've been there?" Alice asked her, looking up at her. "No. I don't know. I used to take ballet lessons as a kid. The school had an arch like that." Bella says as she runs her hand through her hair. "Was the school here in Phoenix?" Jasper ask. "Yeah, around the corner from my house. But I haven't been there in ten years." Bella responds, looking at him.

I watch as Alice and Jasper share a look, when suddenly a phone rings, making me jump. Bella hops up and goes into the bathroom. "Are we gonna be okay?" I ask, looking between Alice and Jasper scared. "Baby, I promise nothing will happen to you or Bella we will protect," Alice says, pulling me close and hugging me tightly.

Hugging her back, I pull away, and they tell me to wait here as they go do some things. Nodding, I lay down on the couch and stare up at the ceiling. Snapping out of my thoughts, I see Bella rush out of the bathroom, grabbing her coat. "Where are you going? We aren't supposed to leave?" I ask, sitting up to look at her.

"James called me. He has my mother and your mother. He told me that if we don't sneak away from Alice and Jasper, he'll kill them." Bella says she's coming over to me I gasp and stand up quickly, getting my shoes on. "I don't want to upset Alice and Jasper, but my mom needs me," I say, tearing up while frantically looking for my coat.

"Soffia, breathe. Alice and Jasper will get over it. Hurry, let's go," Bella says, grabbing my shoulders to calm me down before grabbing my hand and pulling me out the door with my bear still in my other hand. We walk through the lobby of the hotel, making sure Alice and Jasper don't see us as we run out the opposite way.

We make it to Bella's old ballet school, and I look at her "Bella, I'm scared." I say softly, "It will be okay just stay behind me." She says, holding her hand out for me to take. Grabbing it, I move closer to her and get ready to enter the building.

Before Bella opens the door, we hear a faint sound "Bella? Soffia?" We hear our mothers call for us. Looking at each other, Bella grabs the handle and opens the door. We enter the room cautiously. We hear the calling of our names again and see the source.
