Bella's POV

Emmett carried in the house, away from them. I closed my eyes.

As I opened my eyes, the room was silent with the exception of Esme and Alice's quiet sobbing.

They just lost part of their family and I am acting stupid. Smooth move, dumb ass. Self loathing. What, are you taking notes from Edward now? Get a grip.

Everyone was starring at me. Emmett had pulled me into his lap. As I scanned the room, I saw Jake and Jasper's expressions. They were angry and grieving for different reasons. Jasper was trying to help Alice and his family, and Jacob was feeling bad for me. They don't deserve this. Jane was right, I always seem to bring out the worst in their kind.

Grief overtook me and I started crying hysterically again. Jacob came to sit with me and tried calming me down. I felt calm wash over me and I lost it again.

"Jasper, stop... I have to... to feel this... I... have to get it out," I gasped.

"Bells, why are you being so stubborn? Do you remember the last time he left? You can't do that again. I won't let you," Jacob stated in a hushed voice.

"I wasn't like that just because he left, Jake. You know that," I said, through my stream of tears.

"Bells, we are not going to leave you again. Don't worry. We will help each other, I'm here for you, always," Emmett said, kissing the top of my head. _

"She is trying to calm herself," Jasper whispered. I just nodded.

Esme and Alice were still shaking with unshed sobs. I really wanted to kill Rose and Edward. How could they do this? They didn't even seem to care.

Everyone was watching Bella as she sat on my lap. She opened her eyes and looked around the room at our family. She paused when she got to Jacob and Jasper. They were angry and grieving for different reasons. Jasper was trying to help Alice and his family and Jacob was feeling bad for Bella. His best friend was suffering and there was nothing he could do.

Bella started crying hysterically again. Jacob came to sit by her. He tried calming me down. I felt calm wash over me and I silently was thanking Jasper.

"Jasper, stop... I have to... to feel this... I... have to get it out," she said, through gasps.

"Bells, why are you being so stubborn. Do you remember the last time he left? You can't do that again. I want let you." Jacob stated in a hushed voice.

"I wasn't like that just because he left, Jake. You know that," she cried out.

"Bells we are not going to leave you again. Don't worry. We will need to help each other. I am here for you, always," I said, kissing the top of her head.

I meant it. I'd always be there for her no matter what. This family needed time to heal and start again.

"Emmett, you're right. We'll be okay. It just hurts," she said, through the tears running down her red cheeks. Every tear drop broke my dead heart even more.

I had to be strong for her. This family would have to put this behind them. We'll not forget it of course but we have more important things to deal with and I'm not going to let them forget it. We had to be ready for next weekend and Bella moving in a couple of weeks. It was going to be difficult, but we'll manage it together.

Three Weeks Later

Bella's POV

Looking back over the time since 'the incident'. We seem to be moving forward. Emmett and I have gotten a lot closer, spending most of my 'awake' time, as he calls it, together. Night is my down fall. I have horrible nightmares like before, but they're different, I'm running for my life in this one. I can't see who is after me; I just know I am scared and running.
