He touched my face and i shifted in the bed, his bed, i slowly opened my eyes, biting down gently on my lip, "edward" i sighed thinking to myself "my edward". I openedy one eye slowly than the other, to very hazy
surroundings, the only thing was clear was edwards face, the beauty of it, his forehead creased with worry, his eyes, dark, darker than i had ever seen them before, his nose and his lips, thoes beautiful pale lips that had
turned into a thin tight line, his cool had was on my hot cheek in an instant and i sighed leaning in towards him, i felt no pain, maby that was because edward was here with me or maby it was the moraphine dangling
from the iv pole beside edwards bed attached to a needle in my hand, i looked down at myself, my arms, black and blue bruises appearing, covering my own pale human skin, damn my human skin, if i was a vampire,
like edward i wouldnt bruise, i let out a small laugh at the idea and edwards facial fetures turned from worry to confusion. I took a deep breath and attempted to sit up in the bed but edward put his hands on my shoulders
keeping me down, i looked up at him "edward" i said "can i please just sit up?" "no bella, you've been out of it for a few day's...you need to rest" he said the worried expression back. I sighed "what happened to me" i
asked, i dont remeber anything before this, i closed my eyes trying to rememeber...
Flashback
"where the hell are you going" an angry voice came up from behind me. "im going to edwards house" i told him turning around, i had broken up with jacob a few hours earlier over the phone, he was prone to violance
so i didnt want to do it in person and i prayed he'd leave me alone and come to terms, oviously god wasnt listening. "is that why you broke my heart, because you fell in love with that bloodsucker" jacob hissed. I
shook my head, i didnt want to start anything, i was alone. Charlie had gone to billy's to watch the game and i had called edward to tell him i was on my way. I bit down on my lip reaching for the handle to the door of
my truck, pulling it open a few inches before jacob slammed it. I threw my purse into the opened window and rubbed my face, exasperated. "listen jacob, im not your girlfriend anymore, so you dong get to boss me
around, im done, i found something in edward that you could never give me, actual love" i said trying my best to keep my voice calm "do you know what that is jacob" i asked him, my voice going a few octaves high.
"no i guess you dont" i mumbled when he didnt reply. I went to attempt to open the door again when jacob's fist connected with my jaw and i was thrown back onto the cold, wet grass. Before i could get up jacob was
on top of me, it was very dark, to dark to see a few feet in front of your face. I gasped as he connected with my jaw again "you have no idea what your dealing with" i heard him say as he wrestled me. I was losing, i
knew it but i kept trying, he wrapped his hands around my throat cutting off my air supply, i gasped trying to remove it, i could see the blackness start to seep into the corners of my eyes, knowing i was going to pass
out soon, i heard my buttons to my jacket fly off and his cold hand was on my hip, i screamed but he hit me again, that was it, the darkness overtook me and all i heard before i surrenderd to the blackness was "your
going to pay for this"
I shot up, edward grabbed my shoulders, "bella, its okay" he whispered to me, carlise was at the entrance of the door watching me fight against edwards grip, tears poured down my face and before i could do
anything i was again flat on my back. "bella im here" edward soothed me, pushing my hair out of my face, i took a few deep breaths but it hurt, carlise came forward and edward got up, i looked at edward frantically.
"its okay bella, im just going to wait outside while carlise checks you out" he promised, carlise nodded and edward disapperd, the door quietly closing behind him. I took another deep breath. "your a very lucky lady"
he said checking my vitals, he put his stethascope to my chest and i took multiple deep breaths. "If edward hadn't found you, i dont know what would of happend" he said writing on a file he had beside him. I nodded,
yeah i was one very lucky girl. "Im going to take you off the iv and give you perks" he said "it will make you feel better" he promised as he took the needle out of my arm discarding the rest of the moraphine and the
needle he smiled "you'll be better in no time, now im going to talk to edward" he said standing up he went outside to find edward leaning his back against the wall. He looked at carlise with fury in his eyes. "edward,
you need to calm down" carlise told him, i had managed to pull myself up out of bed, hobbling to the door, listening. "how can you tell me to calm down when someone attacked my girlfriend" he yelled at carlise
taking a vase off a small table in the hallway throwing it and watching it shatter into millions of peices, carlise frowned. "your going to be no good to bella if your in this mood, you need to calm down, she was the one
raped, and she needs you" he said before walking down the staircase. My mouth hung open. Raped. That was impossible. Jacob would never rape me. I started to hobble back to the bed before edward could catch
me but i was intercepted, edward was in front of me, he took my hand leading me back to lie on the bed. I didnt argue. "so i guess you heard what carlise said" he sighed looking into my eyes not breaking contact.
"bella" he sighed "you have to tell me who did this to you."
