Bella's POV

I walked in, there was Charlie laying on the bed. Dying, and I couldn't help. I was helpless, which made me feel horrible. I was walking closer to him, once he saw me his face brightened up.

"Hey, Bells." He had said, I smiled. You could barely hear his voice.

"Hey, daddy." He smiled, a tear was rolling down his cheek. I wiped it away, "Daddy there's no need to cry. I'm a big girl. I can take care of myself." I laughed a little.

"I know Bells." He smiled, "You're daddy's little soldier." Tears started rolling down my face. I am a five year old, that escaped the Cullen's house. I ran to Jacob's house and begged Billy to let me see Charlie. He did, now here I am watching him, saying goodbye.

The doctor came in, I looked up, "Are you ready?" I nodded, "Are you sure you don't want to leave the room?"

"I'm sure." I whispered. Daddy was on life support so the doctor pushed the buttons and it stopped him from living. He looked at me one more time, "I love you Bella." His last breath came out of his mouth and his eyes fluttlered shut.

"I love you too Daddy." Just then blood started to come out his mouth, nose and closed eyes. I screamed.

"No!" I screamed and bolted upright in bed. I knocked Muffins, my cat, to the floor. She growled.

I screamed again, I felt hot tears running down face. I heard a door open and three pairs of feet running. They were getting closer to my door.

My door flew open, I jumped and screamed again. There stood three figures, I reached over and turn my bedside lamp on. Carlisle was standing in his black robe, looking around the room, holding a bat. Esme was standing behind him, her hands on his back. Then there was Edward, standing in his dark blue boxers. I liked him, but he didn't like me. I knew it. His hair was like normal, messy and bronze.

All ttheir eyes landed on me, making the tears run down faster. Esme ran to me, red robe flowing out like a cape. She landed on my king size bed and hugged me. She smoothed my head and hugged me, she was my mother, since I didn't know my real one.

"Bella, it's okay" She said, Carlisle sat at the end of the bed and Edward sat next to me, I felt my heart race. I hope he didn't hear. Carlisle patted my knee, Edward rubbed his hand on my arm, which sent my heart into a frenzy. I whimpered, "Shh." They all said. I looked at the clock, it said one in the morning. Damn nightmare. I thought.

I sniffed and cleared my throat, "I'm sorry that I woke you guys up. I didn't mean to..." I trailed off.

"That's okay Bella." Carlisle said, rubbing my trembling hands. Edward wrapped his arm around my waist and was tracing circles on my hip.

After a few minutes I said, "I think I'll be okay."

"Are you sure?" Esme asked. I noticed that Edward hasn't said a word.

I nodded, "Yes, thank you for putting up with me. You guys have work, I don't want to make you fall asleep at it." I smiled a broken smile, but they took.

"Okay." Esme hugged me and kissed my forehead.

"Get some sleep." Carlisle whispered, then looked at Edward, "You too."

Edward nodded, Carlisle kissed my forehead and left with Esme. I turned to look at him, his bright breen eyes looking at me, "You need some sleep. Go." I pushed him and he smiled.

"Okay." He sounded bummed, he hopped off the bed and faced me again, "Bella you need sleep." I nodded and he kissed my forehead. His lips lingered there for a few seconds and then he kissed my cheek. My breathing had slowed but my heart was in full gear. Then he kissed the corner of my mouth and left. I waited until the door closed. When it did I landed in my pillows and sighed.

"Bella, you are dreaming. But good dream." I said to myself, Muffins hopped onto my bed, "Hey girlie." Her fur was lit by the moonlight. She was medium brown and had dark brow spots all over her. She did circles on my stomach and fell asleep. I was petting her head.

I tried to process what just happened. I had a nightmare and they came in. They stayed with me, until I was calm. They all kissed me and said bye. But then Edward? He kissed my forehead, cheek and corner of my lips. He can't love me....can he? He had a girlfriend. Lauren. We do not get along at all. No one here in this house likes her. Even Muffins hisses at her. I laughed every time.

**Flashback**

There was a knock at the door, I was sitting in the living room with Emmett, Rose, Alice, and Jasper. I looked at Emmett, and he looked out the window and groaned, "The devils here." We all laughed.

"Edward! Door!" I yelled, he was upstairs in his room getting ready. He came down the stairs holding Muffins, "Hey! Did I say you can hold my cat?" I asked and raised an eyebrow.

He rolled his eyes, "I wasn't holding her. I found her in my room." He handed her to me, my hand brushed his skin and I swore I felt electricity flow into me, I backed away. Alice and Jasper were sitting next to me, I bumped into Jasper. My eyes meet Edward's bright green ones, we were staring into each other's eyes.

"Dude your girlfriend is here." Emmett said throwing a pillow at him. I looked away and at the TV. Edward shook his head and headed to the door. He opened it, "Eddie!!" She yelled and jumped into his arms. I snickered, she glared at me.

"Got something to say?" She said coldly.

I shook my head, "Good." She said, she turned her attention back to Edward.

"Slut." I whispered. Jasper and Alice looked at me, "What?" A smile broke onto my face and they laughed.

"Lauren!" Esme said, acting excited. She pulled her into a hug, "I haven't seen you in a while! How are you dear?"

She smiled, "Good. And you?"

"Just fine." Carlisle never came downstairs whenever she was here. He absolutely hated her.

"C'mon lets go." Edward said, he pulled her out the door and to her car. Esme waved and shut the door, "Ugh!" She said and headed up stairs.

I didn't even know Muffins was still in my hands, I looked down at her. Her back was arched and fur standing up. Her claws had cut my skin and I was bleeding, but I didn't care.

"Good girl, Muffins!" Emmett boomed and got up to go to the kitchen.

"Shh. It's okay the bitch has left. Good girl." I soothed her, she calmed down instantly. Jasper and Alice started petting her.

Emmett came back with food for himself and gave Muffins a cat treat.

"Bella you want to go sing?" Jasper asked. He was the guitar player, Alice was also the singer too. We had a recording studio downstairs. Alice and I came up with the songs and Jasper came up with the tune. Nobody knew about downstairs, but us three and the parents.

I jumped up, knocking Muffins to the floor, "Yes!" I grabbed Alice's hand and dragged her to the basement door. Jasper followed laughing.

We got downstairs and closed the door, we got ready. Alice and I stood by the mic and Jasper sat on a stool with his guitar.

I looked at him, he nodded, "Whenever your ready."

"What are we playing?" Alice asked, she was my adopted sister and best friend in the world.

"Um..." I said and put my finger to my chin, "How about....Tied together with a smile"

Her face lit up, I nodded, "Jasper want to?"

He nodded and headed to the drums, he gave me the guitar, "Let me know when your ready."

I nodded, put the guitar strap on, I looked back at him, making sure he has a mic.

"Okay. We're ready." Alice nodded. He nodded.

Once we were done playing we decided to get something eat. We got up on the main floor and no one was home. We went to the kitchen and there was a note.

Bella, Jasper and Alice:

Your father and I decided to go have lunch together. Emmett and Rose went to their friends house and go to the pool. Be back soon.

Love,
Mom.

"Well that explains it then. I'm gonna get something, can you guys start without me?" I asked. They both nodded and I ran upstairs. My bedroom was on the third floor with Edward's. I stayed off that floor everytime she came by. I ran past and stopped, did I hear crying coming from Edward's room?

I listened, yep, someone was sobbing. I opened the door and peaked in. There sat Edward looking at a picture, "Hey." I said softly.

He's red, swollen eyes looked at me, "What do you want?" He bitter tone made me cringe.

"What's wrong?"

He didn't answer.

"Edward. I know some thing's wrong. You never cry!" I said, throwing my hands into the air.

Still no answer, "Edward, you can tell me anything. Remember when we were little kids and we told each other our secrets? Well I still have them kept." I smiled.

"I remember." He muttered, wiping his eyes.

I walked in and sat at the edge of his bed, "So...what happened?"

He took a deep breath, "Lauren's pregnant." He whispered.

I was shocked, "Way to go Edward!" I said, happy for him, but a little disappointed.

"No. No. No," He whispered, "Bella, she cheated on me with Tyler! That's not my kid! She told me today. She broke up with me for him!" He took his pillow and screamed into it, then started sobbing. He looked up at me, "I loved her."

I sat right next to him and calmed him down, "Shh."

**End of Flashback**

That was at least a month ago from this day, he's now dating my best friend, Jessica. He thinks she's the one, and she thinks he's the one. She comes over, but no one hates her. Alice thinks Edward likes me. I told her no, he has a girlfriend. She just says, "He's covering up his feelings for you." Alice, Edward, Emmett, and I were adopted. Jasper and Rosalie are twins, a package deal is what Emmett use to call them. Jasper and Alice have been together when they were babies, they were best friends. Emmett and Rose have been together when they were toddlers, if you went somewhere with one you had to bring the other. Then there was Edward and I, we were just like Rose and Emmett. Only we got married under the backyard tree, using Ring Pops. We then carved our initials in the base of the tree and carved a heart around it too. It's still there. Then when we turned 12 he forgot about the marriage thing and started dating girls. Left me in the mud, he didn't even know I exsited. But I started to hang out with the rest of the family. Then he started noticing me again. Thank god, I had missed him.

There is always a memory that makes me laugh and I want to hold onto it forever.

**Flashback**

"Mrs. Esme, Mr. Carlisle, Daddy. Can I please have your attention?" They all stopped talking and was looking at Edward and I. We were only three at the time, but we were smarter than the normal three year old.

"Yes dear?" Esme said.

I cleared my throat and looked at Edward. He was looking down at his shoes kicking at nothing. I turned to face them again and smiled, "Edward and I just made a baby!!" I said jumping up and down.

Charlie spit out his soda, "What?!" he said at the same time Carlisle said, "That's my boy!"

I smiled, everyone looked shocked. I pulled out a baby doll that Edward was holding. I showed it to them, we drew hair on it.

They were still in shock, "Come on Edward. I want another!!" I smiled at him and pulled him up the stairs.

**End of Flashback**

That always seemed to brighten my day. They look on Charlie's face was priceless. I missed him already, but I knew they caught the cancer to late. There was nothing to save him. He was in a better place.

So, I closed my eyes and fell asleep with a smile of my face.
