Caged (-Twilight Fanfiction-)

1. Hidden Life

Epov

Sweat dripped from my overly heated body as I punched at the boxing bag with no regret. This was the only time of the day that I could really release all my anger. Wet hair fell down onto my forehead as my body began to shake in agony. The ache was good, the pain I felt after training made me feel like I've been doing something right.

"Again Cullen! Again!" Emmett Swan, my trainer and best friend yelled. "Don't stop, keep it moving!"

His words were surprisingly encouraging and it made my fists drive faster into the plush boxing bag.

"Fuck you!" I panted in to the bag as I released all my unneeded anger that I couldn't control. Luckily it was just me and Em in my gym, and he took this time to train me for my fights.

"Cullen, take time out. You have 10 minutes." He looked around from the other side of the bag and smiled. He was a goofball for sure and that's why in a way, I was friends with him.

I reached for my water bottle that glistened for me to reach out and drink it, from the stall. The ice liquid soothed my throat from the burning heat of my body.

"Hey dude. Bella is coming in to town this weekend." Emmett explained, throwing me my white towel. I took a deep breath and patted my face with the soft towel.

Emmett's sister. The hot brunette with the douche boyfriend. We met last year when she was a senior in college, she was hot to say the least. Emmett dragged me to a bar to meet her, and the whole night I couldn't keep my eyes off her beautiful chocolate irises. She wasn't skinny, but slim and curvy, just how I liked women. Her face heart shaped, her lips plumped and her nose softly curved. She was perfect and I never rocked up to ask her on a date.

Then the next month, when I found out that she was dating a new guy, Jacob Black, I never asked about her again. I just tried my hardest to forget her. It was impossible of course, because I worked with her brother and he gave me updates about Jacob. I don't think Emmett realises that when I'm punching the bag, all I can picture is his sisters boyfriend.

"Really? That's cool." I replied quickly. I needed to get to the lockers quick, before he started talking even more about her. Even thinking about her got my little friends attention.

"And she's very, very single." He winked at me and pushed my shoulder.

Oh so she finally saw the light? That douche of a man was only with her because of her fortune. Bella is a very well known author, and has managed to publish her book 'Twilight' and it became New York's best seller.

"The pricks gone?" I scoffed. Emmett chuckled and nodded.

"But I'm sure something else has happened." He sighed, walking over and taking my gloves from me. Underneath the red plushness of the gloves were my bandaged hands, beaten and bruised from my last fight against James Nomad.

I came out on top of course, Emmett was my trainer and he was one of the best fighters out there. His father, Charlie Swan became world champion in 1986. It was in their blood to be champions.

"What do you mean 'something else'?" I asked, taking another swig of my water.

Though me and Bella never got together, much to my disappointment, we were good friends. I never pushed her, but she knew the way I felt towards her and she knew that even though she was Jacob that she could still rely on me for a good laugh and a movie.

That's when she moved across the country. All the way to Seattle, so her douche bag boyfriend could work.

"She seemed so upset, and I mean Bella never gets upset over anything." He shrugged, hooking my gloves up on the wall.

"Don't all girls get upset when their boyfriends break up with them?"

"Yeah. But this was different. I know Bella, this wasn't like her."

I hope he was wrong, because if something had happened I would kill Jacob Black.

Bella's POV

"Daddy." I sobbed into the receiving end of the line, running down the path towards the cab service. "Please pick me up from the airport."

"Bella? Honey? Are you alright? What's happened?" My dads voice still as gruff as it was when I was a child. He was my hero, all his medals that hung on our mantle piece proved that my dad was the best of them all.

"Dad, please can you pick me up from JFK. My flight will be in at 12pm east coast time."

"Of course. Of course I will. Bella, baby what happened?" He sounded panicked. My dad has always been the protective 'stay away from my daughter' type and it didn't help that he hated Jacob. But it was okay, I hated him too.

"Can I tell you when I get home?" I cried lightly, letting the silent tears stream down my overheated face. People stared at me as I walked through the airport doors. Probably thinking I was some psycho.

"I'll be there an hour before your flight comes in. I'll bring Emmett with me too, you know how much he's missed you." Dad said, sighing lightly. "Please tell me you're not hurt or in trouble?"

I'm more than hurt.

"I'm not in trouble. I promise."

"But you're hurt. Is it Jacob? I'll kill him." He was spot on and it made my heart clench. I couldn't tell him what Jacob had done to me, I couldn't tell anyone. It embarrassed me.

"I'm fine dad. I have to go." I sighed, wiping away a tear that dropped down my cheek. "I love you.

I hung up and with shaking hands I placed my phone back in my pocket.

"You're a whore aren't you?" Jacob seethed, pushing my shoulder down on to our couch in our apartment.

"Jacob what's going on?" I winced at the slight pain of the new bruise forming on my shoulder.

This was it. This was my life now. He would hurt me, and rape me when my family all thought I was in a happy relationship all the way across the country.

"You know exactly what's going on. You're a whore and I will treat you like one." His hands grabbed my waist and he towered over me.

"Jacob please stop." My palms began to shake as I tried to push him away. Tears began filling my eyes, and he laughed.

"Why cry when you know you enjoy it?" He whispered in my ear. Pulling up my summer dress slightly. I knew what he was about to do, and I shut my body down. I closed my eyes and remembered my time back in New York. How me and Edward would watch movies on his bed and eat popcorn. How we would share ice cream together and laugh when he got brain freeze. It was all ruined when Jacob came into town.

"M'am? Where are you flying to today?" The lady at the check out caught my attention.

"New York. I'm flying to New York."

A/N okay so I started a few stories but this one is one that I've really enjoyed writing. A lot of drama in this, but also a lot of Bellward Lovin' ❤ comment thoughts.
