Chapter 5 - Taddle Tails

This chapter is dedicated to all the sisters that have sisters with depression.

September 24, 2005      ...Saturday

I woke up still on the phone with Jasper, 

"Did I snore?" I asked groggly

"Only a little, -" 

"Dammit!"

"We've been over this it's not a bad thing really,"

"I know, I know..."

"You should eat some breakfes darlin', You did say you had some homework to do."

"I have Bella too, I wish I know where he hid those photos. You think Alice could mail me copies, the burning of pictures are necessary."

"I think you need to take a step at a time, she doesn't leave the bed unless you or an obligation makes her."

"I know, I'm mixing his blood into a smoothie whenever I get a chance... You'll help me right."

"Im sure emmett could just make him for you if you make it, please just don't do it yourself while human love."

"Ugh, fine."

"Now go eat, I love you,"

"I love you, bye"

"Bye Sweetheart"

I let out the biggest sigh of my life and rolled out of bed, rumaging through my drawer for some jean shorts and Jasper's Washington State Hoodie. Throwing my hair into a bun I grab my school bag and unplugged the IBook that Alice got me for the  classes that I was taking.

I opened Bella's door and sucked in a deep breath and some how was able to keep my self from screaming.. (think like a female alaster voice, radio voice)

"Good Moring Beauty, Today is going to be in the high 60's and we have exactly 2 weeks to go hiking or my impromptu trips hiking will be the least of your worries.. I... Will... Take... You... SHOPPING!!!! *HoRrOr*"

There was no response from Bella

"Ok, well I guess we are doing this the hard way."

I push Bella off the bed. She didn't even fight me, fell with a hard cal-lump.

She was a pile of sheets, comforter, and one clumsy human.

"Welp You stinnk so it is shower time, don't for get to brush your teeth." 

I said while I pulled out all she need for hiking... essentially a hoodie from Alice (Yeah, yeah, but Bella doesn't know. She's been quite the saint) Jean shorts and hiking boots. I pick up her portable CD Player and headphones, the book off her side table (Looked Untouched) I set it all on her bed and rounded to her still on the floor unmoved.

"Bella if you don't get of that floor and go take a shower, then get dressed with my beautiful outfit. I'm taking you to therapy and we both know that I am the better option."

She turned to glare at me.

"1..."

She gets up, grabbed the clothes (very clumsily I must add) and went to the bathroom. I went ahead and made her bed and placed everything neatly on top then proceeded to Cook the best scramble eggs and toasted everything bagals one could imagine of. 

Bella came down dressed, sat and started nibbling on a bagal.

"Okay the plan is simple, I will have everything pack just in case of all things going wrong. You will carry our lunch in your bag along with anything you think we'll need. We will be hiking Kloshe Nanitch Trail,  will be a 5.7 mile hike and you will not tell Jasper of the hike or I will push you off the cliff of Lapush never to be seen again. OK!?"
