"Bella, hurry the up"! Charlie screamed from down the hall.
I grabbed my cell phone and my ipod, while tripping over the various things in my room trying to access my closet.
"im coming! Just give me a couple minutes, god, I just freaking had a performance dad. I can't go to the hospital looking like some tramp dressed in fishnets and covered in makeup".
I glanced at myself in the mirror and found myself staring at my reflection. My brown hair was in loose curls around my face and spiraling down to my waist.
My dark eye makeup and lipstick made me look at least 5 years older that my actual age, 16. My black ballroom pumps I wore were at least 4 inches tall, and my fishnets disappeared under a tight ,little, sparkly, black dress that barely hit me mid-thigh. I think of myself as average looking. Not pretty, not cute, and definitely not drop-dead gorgeous. But I have to admit, I looked pretty damn hot right now.
Wow, what am I thinking. Im so pathetic.
CONGRADULATIONS BELLA, you could officially pass as a high class hooker.
Yeah no, I don't think so.
" you know what Bella? NO! get out here right now so that we can go visit your aunt. She just got out of surgery, and we were supposed to be there 15 minutes ago.
I don't care how you think you look. We need to go. NOW."
I groaned loudly as I pulled out my long trench coat that I wore for my dance company's last show. I pulled it around my shoulders as the long black material engulfed me.
I scurried out of my room as quickly as possible, all the while tripping over nothing and catching myself with my hands.
My dad staring laughing loudly as I picked myself up. I glared at him, for I didn't see what was so amusing. That only made him laugh harder.
'What is your issue dad? I fall and you start laughing hysterically? I could have seriously injured myself!"
" Oh please Bella, I just find it so funny how you are so clumsy, yet you cease to amaze me each time I see you dance. You are absolutely phenomenal." He praised.
I blushed and turned my head to the side.
" Thanks dad." I murmered.
" Yeah, no problem kid." He grinned and turned towards the door. " Let's get going."
We both rushed to get into his police cruiser. All I could think about the whole ride to the hospital, was how much I hated my aunt. I mean come on! What do you expect?! She is altogether a stuck up bitch!!!
She thinks she rules the world just because she is fairly wealthy and has a young husband she bangs all the time. Ok I admit, I am a virgin, but some of the things she talks about would make any porn star blush. All she spends her money on is material items to show off, and medical procedures to make herself somehow more attractive and appealing( which I think is impossible), Hence the reason we are visiting her at the hospital tonight.
She had another one of her procedures done and apparently has a week and a half of recovery time. My father, being the loving brother that he is, has agreed to stay in the hospital and watch over her while she is in recovery. And that means that I will have to hang out around the hospital 24/7 also because, its july and I don't have school to attend to, and Charlie feels uncomfterable leaving my at home by myself.
Yay me! I get to mope around the fucking hospital doing FUCKING nothing! Wooo hoooo! Yeah right. What really sucks is that for half of the day I have to stay with her by MYSELF, because my dad has to go to work.
Oh. Joy. This will be fun.
(if only I knew)
We pulled into the parking lot and I glanced at the brand new, re done hospital. It. Was. Huge.
That's what she said. Heheheheheeee. ew. Wow, im such a perv. ANYWAYS…
this won't be that bad. I bet they have some wonderful food in cafeteria. We made our way to the entrance and a big gust of air hit me as we entered. I looked around the lobby and was shocked. It was completely breathtaking.
The bright walls, the high ceilings, and the tall fireplace sitting in the center of the large room that reached all the way towards the ceiling, covered in intricate tiling. This place wasn't so bad after all. I shuffled my feet towards the elevators on the right side of the room. I pressed the up button and waited until one of the doors opened. There were three doors and I couldn't help but think of the monty hall problem dealing with probability.
I decided I might as well say that the door closest to me was the most likely to open considering that I have a 33% chance that…WOW, im such a nerd. And I was right the door in front of me opened. We stepped in and both me and Charlie remained silent the entire elevator ride.
We stopped on the seventh floor and stepped out.
" its room 413." My dad said.
I nodded in acknowledgement, I kept walking until I reached the correct room. I walked in and turned to the right to greet my aunt. And I must say that her face looked thoroughly messed up.
I almost felt bad… almost. I was polite when I greeted her and sat down on the couch/ foldout bed thingy that was in the far corner of the room.
" ill be back later Bella. Some of the guys at the station called in for backup, so im going to head in. ill be back in a few hours." He glanced wearily at me, obviously expecting a not so pleasant reaction.
I sighed " Alright Char- dad, ill be fine."
To say he looked surprised would be the understatement of the year. He nodded and left the room.
I sat quietly listening to the beeps of monitors and god knows what else. I glanced up at the dry-erase board that has all the patients information and looked for the name of the doctor who I would probably become familiar with over the next week.
That's when I saw it, Dr. Cullen MD, in flawless handwriting on the board.
Damn, that's one sexy last name, I thought. Well, I hope it's a he. I laughed to myself. I grabbed my phone and stared at the screen
3 NEW MESSAGES
I sighed, and glanced up at the white hospital bed to make sure aunt norma was still asleep, and she was, snoring loudely. I smirked and looked down at my lap again. I had one message from Angela and two messages from that guy Jacob.
Ewwww. Well ew for Jacob.
I texted Angela back quickly telling her that I would call her later tonight.
As for Jacob, well lets see what he has to say. I opened up his first message and read…
Hey sweet thang, how U doin? I was wonderin if U wanna come ovr to my place tonight?
Ew,ew, and more eww. I checked his second message.
Babe! Come on! Text me back. To be honest your kinda hurtin my feelings ;) I really wanted a good fuck tonight baby.
Oh god no. I just didn't text back knowing that if I did, he would just text me more discusting messages.
I was vaguely aware of someone standing in the doorway, but was probably too utterly discusted from Jacobs text you be fully aware at the moment.
" Hello there… Im Dr. Cullen." Someone, who was clearly a man, spoke in the sexiest, most beautiful voice I had ever heard in my entire life.
Shocked, I glanced up under my lashes. And, OH. MY. GOD.
There, stood the most gorgeous man I have ever laid eyes on.
He was almost inhumanly beautiful. He reminded me of a movie star, but more good looking. He was tall, I can tell you that, maybe 6 feet? He had a very toned body, I could even tell through his white lab oat, button up, and slacks.
His jaw could cut glass it was so chiseled, and his eyes were the most mesmerizing color. They were blue and a topaz color at the same time, absolutely stunning.
His hair was the color of wheat gold, and not a strand was out of place. All together, he could rival a greek god. And his lips!! OH HIS LIPS! They are perfect!!!
Ok Bella stop staring. The poor man probably thinks you have a hernia or something.
I bring myself back to reality and look up into his eyes. They are staring straight at me and a sexy smirk makes its way onto his face.
" Hello." I say quietly while looking up at him from under my lashes.
He nods, the sexy smirk still in place as he walked towards the dry- erase board, eyes raking up and down my body.
Oh dear lord.
