Chapter 5:
We walked down stairs to see who was here, though we stopped in our tracks at the voices we heard. Emmett’s booming voice came from the kitchen and it didn’t sound like the happy person we were used to. I finished walking downstairs and walked to the kitchen door, to see what was going on. The voice I heard stopped me in my tracks, the way it sounded, so broken and just not normally the bubbly and excited, Alice, we hear. It scared me because she was suppose to be this excited person always happy about everything and the one to look always on the bright side. Emmett was the same way always the one to be the funny and jokester of the family and now their both different and it’s my fault.
“Emmett, this is your entire fault.” Alice yelled in a high screaming voice. “If you didn’t leave that day then she wouldn’t be like this.” She said through a sob. “Bella wouldn’t be like this. She would be the cheerful, happy, and loving person I remember.” She yelled again though it was less then before. “Emmett, why did we leave her?” she whispered, with a broken voice. “Why?” she whispered through a broken sobs.
“Alice, I am sorry. She asked me to leave. I didn’t know anything would happen the way they did. She promised to call me that night but she never did and also didn’t sow up to school. I am sorry Sis. She told me to leave. I felt horrible for leaving but I couldn’t not listen to her.” He said, sounding so dead and less the warm loving teddy bear we all love him to be. It was my entire fault that they were fighting and it was my fault that they were not being themselves.
I backed up from the door like it was poisoned and while I did I fell into a pair of arms. I looked up knowing the strong ad protective arms that I have memorized from my child hood. I put my finger to my mouth and made a ‘sh’ sound. He simply nodded his head yes. I smiled and he smiled back, just waiting for me t decides what I was going to do. I took a step to the kitchen door and knocked. I didn’t want to just intrude in the sister and brother moment that they were having but it needed to be done. They both were holding so much guilt about what happened a few years ago. I couldn’t let them hold the guilt anymore.
“Hey, it’s Bella.” I stated guilty. I heard their sobbing stop for a moment. “Can we talk?” I asked quietly as before. “If you don’t want to talk, then we don’t have to guys” I said after a few moments later, still silent as before. This kind of worried me because of the simple fact that Alice and Emmett are never silent. They are loud; annoying that is Alice and Emmett. “If you don’t talk in less then 25 sounds I promise I will barge in there and tell you want I think about this silence” I said, Emmett let out a small chuckle. “Finally, I get some kind of sound from one of you.” I stated. I started walking into the kitchen to solve this mess and that when everything went to hell.
I have been sitting in this kitchen and on this same chair for 2 hours watching and hearing Alice, Emmett and Edward go back and forth.
“This is your entire fault.”Alice yelled at Edward, for the hundredth time in the last 2 or so hours.
“How is this my entire fault? This is the first time anyone has told me what the hell was going on.” He yelled back. Alice stepped right up to get into his face to yell at him again but instead she hugged her brother and started to cry and say she was sorry over and over again.
“It’s okay Alice. Where are mom and dad?” He asked. He was acting like the past two hours never happened.
“They should f been here like an hour ago.” Alice said. She had a worried glance. I looked up and looked around to see that everyone had that same look.
“Everyone, I think they are fine.” I said, they nodded their heads as Edward came over and put me in his arms, just as he phone rang out through the threat of silence. I saw no one was moving to go answer the phone so I got up out of Edwards arms and picked up the phone. I thought it was my friends’ parents but I surely wrong.
“Hello Daughter” Charlie’s voice rang through the phone. “I just need a moment of your time.” He stated.
