Chapter 21- Betrayal

A Chapter by Hotaru Miyuki

We were caught. How in the hell did she find us? I looked into Bella's face with tears streaming down her face. Edward and I were just about to have sex and she comes in and finds us, heartbroken. I looked at Edward then. He was just as horror struck as Bella was. I saw Alice, Rosalie, Jasper, and Emmett then. When they saw me, Alice and Rosalie gasped while Emmett and Jasper just stared in total shock.

I had to speak. "Bella... this isn't what it looks like-"

She cut me off. "HOW COULD YOU!?!" She screamed at not just me, but Edward also. I felt terrable. She was betrayed by her best friend and boyfriend. "Why?" She was sobbing so much that she whispered that.

Edward walked up to her and tried to calm her. He reached out to her but she slapped him which hurt her more. "Get your hands off me!"

He flinched back. He was stunned. But then he looked into everyone's eyes with understanding. "I'm sorry. I'm just..." He thought with a pained expression on his face.

"Listen. I don't want Bella. Every second I'm with her I come close to killing her. But with Lauren, I'm safe and so is she. I love her, more than Bella. I don't want anything to come in between any of us. Bella... please forgive me. This is only for the best. I don't want anyone to interfere us. Nobody! I made my choice and Lauren feels the same with me."

He made it clear. He then picked me up, with our clothes over his shoulder. He looked at everyone and so did I. I don't think I will ever see them again.

We took off.

We ran past trees that blured past my eyes. The wind blew in my face. In a couple of minutes, we were in front of a car. It was a silver Volvo.

"Get in," he demanded. I did.

I closed the door and put my seat belt on. I caught a glimpse of some bags in the backseat through the mirror. Edward got in and drove.

"What are in those bags?" I asked. My voice broke.

"Your things," he answered coldly. I felt a tear run down my face. I wasn't afraid... I was hurt. I hurt everyone. I knew I wanted Edward and he wanted me. But I hurt my best friend to get what I wanted.

I cried. My tears were full of confusion and fear. Edward pulled over then. He reached over and hugged me tightly. I sobbed into his chest.

"I'm sorry. I did this. Are you sure about this?" He seemed truley concerned.

"I-I... I do." I could barley get the words out. I cleared my throat. "Where are you taking me?" I asked.

"I was considering on taking you somewhere where nobody will find us. I know a place that I found that only I know about or can find. We'll be safe there."

I looked into his eyes. He really truley wanted me. I nodded. He drove again. It was 4 in the morning. I don't know if I'll be able to sleep.

Edward spoke. "We'll be taking a plane. We'll be there in a couple of minutes so hang in there."

The closest airport was the one in Seattle. There is no way that we can get there that fast. I looked at the speed meter. He was going at 150 miles an hour! I didn't bother to complain. I sorta enjoyed it. Driving this fast was fun. I looked out the window and I couldn't see a thing. Finally we were at the airport. I tried to look fine instead of looking like I was crying for two hours straight. I grabbed some bags and so did Edward. He already had our tickets. Once we got on the plane, it took off. Luckly, we had two seats to ourselves.

I sat down next to the window. I was so beat. I leaned my head against Edward's shoulder. He gently rubbed my back. A nurse came by and saw me.

"Would you like a pillow miss?" she asked.

Edward answered for me. "No thank you. She's fine but thank you for asking." He was so polite that the lady walked away in a daze. Edward murmured in my ear, "Sleep my love. Sleep well."

I felt him lightly kiss my forehead as I drifted off to sleep.

What an a*****e :( Luckily I have a piece of mind to know he would never do this to Bella, but bravo. You did a great job. And a Volvo typically can't go 150 mph :)
