Rhea's POV

Bella found out about the pack. Victoria's back and she wants to kill Bella. Bella also told Dad about the pack. It was indirectly but still. Bella screwed up and she still has people doting to her every whim.

Paul kept his word. Some nights when the medicine didn't work I would call Paul and he would come over. He would lay down by me on the floor and I wouldn't dream. My night would be blank and in the morning I would feel refreshed. Thankfully Dad never found out that Paul sometimes stayed the night.

Early one morning I was woken up by the opening and shutting of my window. I bolted awake to find my room empty. The blankets and pillows Paul used were folded and set in the corner of the room. My bedroom door opened and Dad peeked his head in. He told me that he was going hunting with Harry. I wished him luck before laying back down. A few hours later I heard Bella's truck roar to life and I knew she ditched me. Not like I cared. I finally decided to get up and get dressed. I picked out a pair of black sweatpants, a white tank top, and a grey sweater. I walked downstairs, made some hot cocoa, and put on a Disney movie.

Three movies and one bowl of popcorn later and I got a hectic phone call from Dad

Three movies and one bowl of popcorn later and I got a hectic phone call from Dad. Harry had a heart attack. He didn't make it to the hospital in time. I asked him what I could do to help, ideas already swimming in my head of desserts to make. Dad told me to call Bella and have her drive us over. I promised him that I would before hanging up. I called Bella three times and nearly yelled at her during the last voicemail. I finally gave up and called Paul. He said that he would bring me down to see Sue.

Thirty minutes later and I was at Sue's house. I walked inside to see the whole pack there minus Jake. I gave Paul a questioning look but his look told me to drop it so I did. I walked over to Sue and gave her the biggest hug I could muster. I could feel her shoulders shake as tears fell from both of our eyes. Seth and Leah joined our hug and I pulled away so the family could be together.

I walked over to Dad and he wrapped an arm around my waist and brought me into a hug. We stayed at the Clearwater residence for a few more hours. I made them, with the help of Emily, dinner and put it in the fridge for when they get hungry. Dad drove us home and I knew what he was going to want when he got home. We pulled up to an empty, dark house and for a second I thought that it wasn't our house.

We walked inside and I went to the kitchen to get Dad a can of beer. On the fridge door, I saw a not from Bella. She ran away to Italy to save Edward. I gave Dad his beer and the note before going up to my room.

I pulled out my phone and called Bella.

"Bella! Are you out of your Fucking mind?!" I yelled as Bella said hello.

"I have to save him, Rhea. You wouldn't understand," She said desperately.

"You really are stupid or did you actually forget that he left you. You don't have to save him. What you have to do is get your ass back to Forks and support Dad."

"Dad will understand-"

"His best friend just died. He needs us, Bella."

"Dad will be fine. Edward will die if I don't see him."

I rolled my eyes and scoffed. "Let him," I growled out before hanging up the phone.

Dad came up the stairs and I told him what Bella told me. I told him that she wasn't coming back. Tears welled in his eyes but I knew I would never see them fall. I walked over and gave him a huge hug. We both went to our respective rooms and behind closed doors, both of us cried.

I woke up the next morning and walked downstairs and started baking. I used up every single egg, most of the flour and sugar, all of the butter, and all of the chocolate chips. I made two batches of cookies and two pans of brownies. One batch of cookies and one pan of brownies were set aside for Sue and the other for the pack. I convinced Dad to drive me down to the reservation. He stayed with Sue as I delivered to the pack. The boys let out a Cheshire like grin when they saw the desserts.

About an hour later my phone started to ring. I looked at the caller ID to see, "Rosalie."
