She tossed and turned her mind uneasy in her sleep, she was falling, an endless drop to where, she did not know. The dark abyss was slowly swallowing her whole and she could feel the air growing thin around her. "No!" she screamed out in agony and just as she did so her eyes shot open wide and she awoke to find herself on the floor of her room.
Bella sighed and taking her hand to her forehead whipped the thick layer of cool sweat off. It was only a dream she told herself as she stood slowly and yet for some unknown reason she doubted her own words. She sat on the corner of her bed a strange feeling of dizziness traveling throughout her weary body. Slowly Bella laid her head back down on her pillow top and closing her eyes listened to the gentle tapping of the rain on her window pane.
Edward will be back in school tomorrow she told herself in a vain attempt to relax but this thought only made her heart beat faster. She had not seen his face in over a week; he had called her from time to time apologizing as much as he could. It had been oddly sunny in Forks this week, which meant that he had to keep out of eye sight. She offered to simply drive down there but he had said that for the best for him to hunt as much as he could before he was to see her again. She sighed remembering the fact that after her accident he had decided to put of hunting, to put off leaving her side all together. This in turn caused him great frustration and tension so Edward had to leave. The accident had been a month ago now, she was even out of her cast and only a few small scars remained as a memory, she wondered to herself how he had made it so long.
"I'm sorry Bella I promise you I shall be back tomorrow we will have a lot of catching up to do" he had said to her during there last call which was only that morning.
Bella turned her head and glanced over at her alarm clock, it would be going off in just two hours. The rain outside was now coming down heavier, the days of sun had gone. She sighed and turned on her side, curling up into a tight ball under her many thick sheets and quilt. She knew that she would not fall back to sleep; she had not been able to sleep right for days. At first she thought it was because of Edwards absence yet now she knew better, knew it was the fault of her ever growing nightmares.
Tightly she closed her eyes and lay still just simply breathing as a slight sleep took over. It seemed like only a minute however had passed when the loud buzzing of her alarm clock on her night stand went off. Bella groaned and punching it and stood from her bed a bit too quickly; her body shook and she fell back down. Tightly she took her head into her hands, feeling a large amount of pressure. She breathed in deeply and a let out a sigh of relief as the pressure subsided slightly. I can already tell that this is not going to be a good day she stood now more carefully and grabbing her bathroom bag walked down the hallway towards the bathroom that she and Charlie shared.
Dressed now in a forest green low cut sweater, ripped up dark old jeans and her black boots she quickly grabbed her light book bag and walked into the kitchen. Charlie smiled waving good bye to her as he walked out of the kitchen and towards the front door "See ya tonight" he yelled as she reached into the cabinet and took out a granola bar not feeling all that hungry. She turned to leave but turning back decided to pocket three Advil, the headache from the morning still strong.
Bella walked quickly now her bag over her one shoulder and her coat under her other arm. She opened the front door and smiled at the sight of Edward in his silver Volvo. She was half way out her hand on the knob to close it behind her when her foot missed the step and she began to fall, she closed her eyes not having enough time to do anything but, yet the ground never came.
When she opened them once more she was in Edwards arms and he was carrying her across the lawn her book bag across his left shoulder "Really Bella how did you ever survive without me" She smiled at this and hugged him tightly as he kissed her softly on her forehead.
The day went by slowly; Edward was back his golden eyes shining brightly at her throughout the whole day. She was glad that she had brought the Advil, her headache and dizziness growing worse as the day went by, thankfully however Edward couldn't tell.
"So what'd ya hunt this time?" she asked him as they sat at there normal table in the cafeteria. Some days they would all sit together, his family and her yet others like today they wanted to just simply be alone.
He frowned slightly at her question but never the less answered "We went far north and hunted mountain lions" he smiled at this licking his lips as if he could still taste his favorite dish.
"Yummy" she said as she pushed the tray of food towards him
He looked at her strangely "eat" he said pushing it back but she just shook her head "I haven't been all that hungry to be truthful" she said and looked down at his hands instead of his eyes. They were perfect just like every other part of him, pale white and flawless.
"What do you mean not hungry?" he asked now concern in his voice
"I'm just not" she said a bit of anger in hers as she rested her head on the table top closing her eyes as she did so. "You haven't been sleeping" he said studying her face
"And neither have you" she said opening her eyes to notice that Edward was now only inches away from her face. Blush ran high in her cheeks as he gently kissed her soft lips. She fought off her strong urge to kiss him more and pulled back feeling dizzy once more.
"Bella?" he asked as she stood from the table trying to not have him see her weakness. "Come on were going to be late of Science"
The rest of a day felt like one of her nightmares. Edward kept on glancing at her from the corners of his eyes as if at any moment she was going to fall or something. Gym was even worse, Edward had told her that she should probably skip for her own sake but she would not.
She later on realized that she should probably have, they were playing Kick ball and twice she got someone in the face and once tripping on the base and face planting into the ground. Thankfully though class was over before she could do any more damage and she was outside in the cool air that had taken over the day.
She closed her eyes and smiled a slightly breeze catching up her hair and blowing it around her face. When she opened them again Edward was standing right in front of her like he always was. He took his hand and gently brushed away the hair that was misplaced and then placed his cool hand against the side of her face. A rush of icy fire ran through her cheek and was gone as quickly as in had arrived as he dropped his hand to his side.
"How are you feeling?" he asked concern in his voice
"A bit tired I admit" she said with a sheepish grin as they walked off towards his car
"I meant your face but why are you tired?" Anger raced through her body now
"you were watching?" she yelled slightly as she pulled herself into the passenger seat
"Yes now answer my question" she groaned as he pulled out and began to speed down the street like he always did "well" he asked as a minute of silence flew by
"It doesn't matter" she said to him starring out her window things moving by too fast for her comfort and her dizziness took over once more
"Please Bella" he asked again, looking towards her and slowing down as he saw the weary look on her face "Bella?" he asked but she couldn't hear him she was drifting away, whether to sleep or not she did not know. "Bella!" he yelled this time as he pulled the car over but she was gone.
