Chapter 12:

Disturbances

EPOV

I woke up in the bed alone. I could tell Bella had been up for a while, since her side of the bed was cold. I rolled out of the bed and pulled on my jeans from last night. I walked into the bathroom and took care of business, before heading down the steps. I stopped on the landing and listened to the voices coming from the living room.

“Miss Swan, I’m not sure what’s going on, but my husband was watching this when I woke up this morning.”

“What is it?” I heard Bella ask.

“You’ll have to watch it. I’m sorry. Whatever you choose to do, I will back you all the way.”

I walked further into the living room and saw Bella accepting what looked like a disk from Leah Black, Jacob’s wife.

“Bella?”

Bella looked in my direction, “Morning. Leah said she caught Jacob watching this this morning. I think we should see what’s on it.”

I walked to her and she handed me the disk. I went to the TV and put it in the DVD player. After pressing play, I stood back and waited.

“Oh, my God!” Bella gasped when she saw what was on the screen.

I saw red. Jacob had somehow filmed Bella and I in her office last night. That motherfucker was going to pay for this. This was beyond sick.

“Bella, call Marcus and have him meet us at the stadium. Leah, I think you should go home. I’m sorry, but I think your husband is going to be arrested.” I picked up the phone and called the police. I explained who I was and that I had a potential case of voyeurism which needed addressed. I explained where we would be and they should meet us there.

Leah left and Bella and I quickly got dressed and headed to Safeco. I knew Jacob would be in the locker room, so we headed there. When we walked in Jasper and Emmett were already there, talking to Sam.

“Hey, Sam, is Black here?” I asked.

“Yeah, he’s in the office. Why? What’s going on?”

I didn’t answer, instead I headed toward the coaches offices. “BLACK! You sick fuck, get out here!”

As soon as Jacob rounded the corner, my fists were flying.

“Edward! Stop!” Bella screamed.

I felt arms dragging at me as I tried to get in one more punch. Jasper and Emmett were holding me back as Bella stood in front of me. “This isn’t helping.” She placed her hand on my cheek getting my attention. “Calm down.” I nodded and jerked away from Em and Jazz.

“What the fuck is wrong with you, Cullen? Can’t handle a little competition.” Jacob sneered as he wiped his bloody lip.

“Competition? Are you out of your goddamn mind? What you did was illegal.” Bella rounded on him. “Your wife came to see me this morning. Any idea what she gave me, Mr. Black?”

Jacob paled. “No clue.”

“Your pale face says otherwise. Sam, call security and have them escort Mr. Black to my office. We’ll be waiting there with my attorney and the police.” Bella requested.

I watched as Bella walked out of the locker room and left to follow her up.

BPOV

Unbelievable! I stalked into my office and waited for Edward to join me. I looked at the couch and thought about last night and how now it felt dirty. I ran my hands over my face, and looked at Edward.

“What was that? I can’t believe you started hitting him. Edward, he could press charges against you now. Then where will we be?” I asked him.

“I’m sorry, baby. I saw him and saw red.” Edward said as he wrapped his arms around me.

I sighed into his chest. “He made last night seem so cheap. I feel dirty.”

Edward kissed the top of my head. “Look at me, Bella.” I lifted my eyes to his. “Nothing he could do would ever cheapen what happened between us last night. Because we love each other. Understand?”

“Aww…Are we interrupting?” A snide voice said from the doorway.

“Sit down.” Peter from security ordered.

I looked over at the door that they had just come in and saw Marcus as well as the SPD standing there.

“Marcus, thank you for coming. Officers, won’t you come in. It seems Mr. Black has been doing a little bit of spying.” Bella walked over to Marcus and handed him the disk. “He even recorded what he saw.”

“Bella, I don’t want to embarrass you, but we need to watch this.” Marcus said.

I nodded and went to stand beside Edward, while Marcus loaded the DVD and sat back to watch. My moans soon filled the room and I hid my blushing face in Edward’s chest.

“I think you’ve seen enough.” Edward complained. “I think you get the idea.”

“Where did you get this?” One of the officers asked.

I removed my head from its hiding place and answered, “Mr. Black’s wife dropped it off this morning. She said she caught her husband in a compromising position as he watched this in their home.”

Jacob sat in the chair growing paler by the minute. When he discovered that his wife had brought the evidence over, he looked as though he might pass out.

I watched with Edward as the officers stepped forward and told Jacob to stand up. “Jacob Black, you are under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford one, one will be appointed to you. Do you understand your rights?”

“Yes.” Jacob hung his head as he was cuffed and led out of my office.

“Now what, Marcus?”

“Well, you’ve pressed charges. Now you need to fire him. You’ll have to make a statement to the press, which is going to bring your relationship out in the open. Are you two prepared for that?”

“Marcus, I love him. As long as we’re together we can get through anything.” I said as I grasped Edward’s hand.

“Alright. Call Rose and Alice. I need to read any statements that are going to be made, to make sure you aren’t setting yourselves up. Have them fax over the copies.”

“Thanks, Marcus.” Edward said.

“Edward, I have something for you in my briefcase. I think you’re ready to receive it now.” Marcus pulled an envelope out and handed it to Edward. I saw the writing on the front and knew it was from my dad.

“Thanks.” Marcus shook our hands and left.

“Let’s go home and get some rest. We have the Angels tonight.” I said as we walked out to the car.

I watched Bella sleeping and couldn’t believe she was mine. I gently kissed her cheek and got out of bed and headed down the stairs. I pulled the envelope out of my pocket and sat on the couch. I opened it and began reading.

Dear Edward,

If you’re reading this, then I must be dead. You also must have realized what your parents and I have known for very long time. You love my baby girl. I’ve seen it since she was sixteen.

I always knew she would pick you. Trust me when I say Bella is more like me than even she realizes. When she loves, she does it with her whole heart. I know in leaving Bella the team, I have put the two of you in an impossible position, but reread your contract. I put a clause in that allows for your relationship with my daughter.

I always did love you like a son. This is me giving you my blessing. If you ever decide to ask for my daughter’s hand, trust in the knowledge I am all for it. I wish I could be there to walk her down the aisle, but all those hot dogs had other plans. Love you kid, take care of my girl.

Charlie

I wiped my tears as I folded the letter, glad Bella and I wouldn’t have to hide.
