A Light In The Darkness

Edward POV

Chapter 1 – ER Visit

I was strapped to the hospital gurney, my mom was getting sick of these trips to the ER. My wrists were bandaged and my mom was signing the papers to have me admitted as a patient. In-Patient therapy, because she's sick of my suicidal attempts. My dad left because he couldn't handle it. He was such a fuckin' Pussy. I don't date, because I hate my life, simple as that. My life is nothing but a crock of shit, why would I want to keep living? I haven't found a viable reason to live, and until I do, I'll keep doing shit like this. I know a lot of people feel this way and WANT to get help, but I'm not one of them. I'm being forced to do this shit against my will.

The curtain slid open and a gorgeous brown haired beauty walked in to join us. FUCK ME! Damn, now that might just be reason enough to become an admitted patient and get better. She was gorgeous, drop-dead-fuck-me-on-the-gurney-now-gorgeous. My jeans got tighter in response and my imagination ran wild. She walked over to my mother and held out her hand.

"Hello, Mrs. Cullen. My name is Bella Swan, I'll be advising your son during his 8-week treatment." She said sweetly as my mom shook her hand. Fuck, I'd live here forever if it meant being with her, I'd willingly sign up for every program Bella had to attend, too.

"Miss Swan, it's lovely to meet you. Can I ask how old you are? It's not an insult, of course, it's just that, you seem, very young." My mom asked.

"No, of course, not. I'm 19, I skipped 2 years of high school and graduated from Princeton during the summer." Bella smiled.

"Smart girl," Mom mused.

"Yes, well, thank you," Bella turned to me, looking me up and down. "How many attempts has he had?" She turned back to my mom.

"This is his 6th visit to the ER, this month, alone." My mom glared at me as she spoke.

"Yes, he's definitely perfect for my new program. I created the Live Your Life program we run here, the very program, Edward here, is about to be enrolled in." Bella said without looking at me.

"Well, I packed a bag of his things–"

"That wasn't really necessary, Mrs. Cullen. Less distractions means more progress." Bella cut her off. I suddenly wasn't so sure I wanted to be in the program anymore. Bella fixed her brown eyes on mine, seriously. I'd settle for a kiss at this point.

It just wasn't fair.

"Let's get one thing straight, now shall we?" She paused and got in my face. "Fun time is over, as of now, you are all alone, visitors aren't allowed while you're in the program. This program is your new life, for the next 8 weeks, you're MY bitch." She growled.

"Mrs. Cullen, say goodbye to your son, I promise you in 8 weeks, he'll never try to commit suicide again." Bella said, calmly.

My mom gave me a kiss on the head before leaving me alone with the Bella Swan, the gorgeous brown haired beauty, who not only turned me on, but scared me to death. It was right after my mom left that Bella called a big guy into the room. I think his name was Marcus. She ordered him to put me with All The Other Suicidal Teens.
