I've gotten questions. Basically the judge granted bail because she was inevitably going away for a long time. The judge wanted her to get her affairs in order so he placed her under house arrest. As to how she got out of that, well that's to come!

This is possibly the last chapter! I think I've drawn it out enough! If you haven't had enough of me, I have a new story. It's called 'unwanted Guests' so do check it out!

I had a major glitch uploading this chapter - it kept uploading an old chapter instead.


Sunny wants to watch Frozen

"We'll find her, Edward," Charlie says patting his back, "all my men are out there. She won't have gotten very far."

"Thanks Chief Swan," Edward says sadly.

My heart is tearing. I feel so incredibly helpless. Dad's radio buzzed into action making me jump.

"Chief. We might have something interesting." The voice announces

Charlie picks up the radio and begins his reply.

"What you got, bert?" Charlie asks

"A car. Blue. Sitting at the reservation overlooking the beach. I can see a figure of a woman inside and the plates are registered as stolen," he says.

"Hold steady. She might be armed," Charlie instructs, "I'll be there in ten."

Edward grabs his jacket, no expression to give away his thoughts.

"Where are you going?" Charlie demands

"To get my daughter. Then I'm going to see that her mother rots in some cell," he says.

"You can't go. If she sees you it could make it worse," Charlie says.

"I'm not sitting here," Edward says.

"Dad we can hide. She won't see us! We need to be there. She'll be scared," I say.

"Fine but you don't go all save the day on my ass. You let me do my job," he instructs.

Both of us nod like school kids. Once there Charlie demands we stay back with the other officers out of sight.

"I just want to get in there and get my girl," he mutters

"My dad will protect her," I say.

Comforting him is so difficult when I'm barely holding it together. An officer approaches us with coffee with a sympathetic smile.

"You taught my son," he says to me, "he loves you."

I force a smile not wanting to be rude.

"No way! You must be Jason's father," I smile.

"Thanks for all that you did. Jason is so much more confident," he nods.

A shriek breaks apart our small talk. It belongs to a female. Edward stands alarmed.

"What's happening," Edward demands

"They're arresting her," he says pointing behind us.

Jessica is trying to tug her arms a free from the grasp of an officer.

"No! Stop. I'm her mother," she yells, "I can't leave her."

Edward is almost running at her.

"You are so fucking stupid!" He yells.

My father holds him back.

"Son, enough," he groans

"Why is he here with that bitch. You took away my life and gave it to the teacher! You're pathetic," she yells at Edward, "that's my baby! And you're not getting rid of me that easy."

"Where is Summer?" I ask my father.

"Emmett has her," he says pointing toward the stolen car.

Edward pushes past Charlie running to the car.

"Get her in the car," Charlie demands glaring at Jessica.

Jessica struggles until the police door is slammed shut.

"She's psychotic! She told my officers she had to protect Summer. Something has her scared," he says perplexed.

"Won't get her in a prison cell," I shrug.

My dad shakes his head pulling me into a hug.

"Thanks dad for being here," I say.

"It's my job, bells. Besides, he's not a bad kid! I lost you in the park once. It was for twenty minutes but in that time I was a mess. It's not comparable but this is any fathers worst nightmare! You were fantastic! He is very lucky to have you," he says

"Thanks dad! I'm just so happy she's safe," I say.

"He's perfect for you. You've found a winner," he says smiling.

Edward walks to us, Summer in his arms cuddled into his shoulder and chest. She's wrapped in a blanket. Emmett smiles at me from behind his brother, looking like an all new man in his uniform.

Bella smiles as Summer notices her. She gasps still managing a smile.

"Baby," I say moving to place my hand on her back. I rub it soothingly.

"I missed you," she says

I didn't even realise I'm crying until Edwards spare hand is moving me into his embrace. With his arm around me I feel safe.

"I missed you too! I had no one to watch Frozen with!" I laugh through my tears

"Can we call my sister Elsa!" She gasps.

"Sister?" Charlie perks up.

Emmett's head snaps to Edward.

"I wish she'd quit telling everyone," I sigh.

"Something to tell me?" Charlie asks frowning.

"Later dad," I say laughing.

Emmett claps a hand down on his brothers back laughing.

"We need to call your grandma! She's freaking out," Edward says.

"I sent a text to rose. I dare say she told her," Emmett says.

Paramedics assess Summer and deem her unhurt.

"What did you mum say to you?" Charlie asks Summer gently

"That I was going to stay with her now. She said bad men wanted to hurt her but she'd protect me," Summer explains.

"Thank you for telling me that," Charlie says smiling at her.

"Is being a police man hard?" Summer asks suddenly.

I stroke her hair smiling down at her. Despite being kidnaped she still had an incredible view of the world. A true embodiment of positivity.

"Sometimes! But I get to help people like I helped you," he says smiling.

"Could I be a cop one day?" She asks

"Of course! Why don't you get Bella to bring you by the station? Then you can help us out for a bit," he says grinning.

"Really?" She gasps.

Charlie laughs a little taken back as she launches onto him for a hug. Edward watches with a tired smile.

"Go home for now but, because police girls need lots of rest," Charlie instructs her.

So that's where we take our little girl. Home. Summer insists she sleeps in our bed, in case we need a cop. We let her just to have her close.

Between us summer sleeps. Edward and I look at each other through the darkness, thinking similar thoughts.

"You okay?" I whisper

"Just thinking," he nods

"It's okay. She's safe," I smile leaning across summer to kiss him.

He nods smiling at me.

"I know. I'm just dad worrying," he says.

"Well stop," I say smiling, "think about something else. Like how we're all together. She won't bother us ever again after tomorrow. We get to move on, plan a wedding, have this baby and deal with enough frozen to turn this house into the North Pole!"

And that's what we fall asleep to. The promise of a better tomorrow.

It's about mid afternoon the next day he calls to cement that. He went to the hearing.

"The judge got suspended for the bail conditions being too soft. A new judge took over and sentenced her to life in jail. She needs to come back for another trial for the kidnapping. That's not for another three months! If we drop the charges the state will still prosecute her for endangering a child anyway," he explains.

Bella can hear his relief through the phone.

"Oh baby! That's amazing," I say, "I'm so pleased. When you get home it's just us from now."

"I'll be home soon. Be naked when I get there again," he says

"Edward I'm watching your child. She's occupied with the dog for now but that won't last," I laugh.

"Our child. I love you," he says before hanging up.

My heart flutters a little. I turn to see Summer tipping a plastic up towards Sunny's mouth.

"What are you drinking?" I ask

"Tea," She says simply.

Sunny looked pissed off. I laugh at his miserable face. Inside I know he loves the attention. He's become a different dog since Summer walked into his life. He's more energetic, less lazy and even comes to me for cuddles more.

He meets my eyes for a short second and it's as if we share a private conversation. We're home. We're family here.

"Sunny wants to watch Frozen," Summer announces

He grunts. He absolutely doesn't. That's something neither of us are set to change our minds on.

"What if we watch something different?" I offer

"No please," she says.

Internally I'm screaming profanity at her. On the outside I put a smile on my face.

"Okay," I sigh smiling.
