I woke up early, before Charlie was even up. I rubbed my eyes and looked around. It was still pitch black outside. What time was it. I got out of bed and went down stairs aand got myself a glass of water. The clock read 3:24 A.M. I groaned. Why was I up.
I went back up stairs to my rom. Edward was laying on bed staring out the window. "Edward!" I called out. My voice broke and he looked at me. He was infront of me before I could blink. He felt my forehead and his eyes widened. "Bella, are you feeling you alright?" I nodded and went to lay down.
He just stood there and looked at me, worry in his eyes. "Edward I'm fine" I assured him, "It's just hot in here, it'll be gone by tomorrow, promise." He seemed to relax a little at the idea and came to lay with me. I was still so tired and it really was hot in here. I layed my head on his chest and it felt good.
The coolness of his skin let me sleep more. When I woke up it was raining, and I noticed it was day. I turned over and saw Edward in my rocking chair, looking at me. "What time is it?" I moaned, still half a sleep.
"12:30 almost, you sleep half the day" He said getting up and walking over to me. He felt my forehead again. "It's gotten worse." He wispered to himself. Now that I thought about it, I did feel really bad. I turned my face away into my pillow. I wanted to go back to sleep. I knew Edward was about to start.
He turned my face so I was looking at him. "Don't sufficate yourself Bella." I sighed and closed my eyes. He put his hand up to my forehead again, it felt so good. I couldn't believe how hot it was now. "Bella.." I looked up into his eyes, they were looking at me, but I could tell his mind was else where.
I got up and walked to the door. "Bella your sick you need to rest." He was at my side dragging me back to the bed. "I'm thirsty" I complained as he laid me down. He pushed the hair out of my face. "Don't worry, I'll get it."
He was back in a second with a glass of water. I drank the whole thing in one gulp, and layed back down. Edward was on the phone with Carlisle, which he had no reason to be. I wasn't dying. He checked something Carlisle probably told him to do, like my tempature, my troat to see how red it was. it was annoying.
He finally hung up with him and sat next to me on my bed. I layed my head on his lap and closed my eyes. He rubbed my back and sighed. "Edward's what wrong?" I asked looking up into his eyes. "Nothing, Carlisle said you might have the flew."
"So.. I'll get over it in a few days nothing to worry about." I said simply. He shook his head and bent down to wisper in my ear, "Bella you don't understand how many people have simply died from the cold. I can't lose you Bella. You will not do anything, anything at all to stress yourself. If it is indeed the flew I want to make sure it is gone" I turned my face ever so slightly to kiss him.
"Whatever you say." He chuckled and started humming my lulliby. I fell asleep before he was ever done. I dreamt I was in worse condition than I thought and Edward was right.
I was in the hospital with a whole bunch of tubes on me, just barely making it. Edwad was fighting with Carlisle about changing me. No matter how loud I screamed, not one of them turned to look at me, like I wasn't even there. I couldn't move I couldn't do anything. Alice came in, and she walked over to them "She's dead Edward I'm sorry" He finally turned to me and was at my side holding me. "Bella, oh I should have changed you" He kept going on for hours it seemed. I screamed and thrashed but he never noticed anything. It was my ghost, my spirit I was right now.
I heard screaming, and I opened my eyes relizing it was mine. Edward was holding me as he was in the dream. I started crying and he rubbed my cheek. "Edward I don't wanna die." I said. He sqeezed me closer to him not allowing any space between us. "I will never allow that to happen, don't you worry. You aren't gonna die my love"
He stayed with me all day, not even the looking the slightest bit like he was ever going to go back home till I was over this. It was just the flew, nothing big.
Charlie called around 5 and said he'd be home late or stay with Billy for the night. It been a while since he went to La push. I told him I'd be fine and afer about an hour he gave up and I had the house tonight.
Edward carried me down stairs since he didn't want me walking, so we could watch a movie. I had my head on his lap and i was wrapped in a blanket he wouldn't let me out of unless it was nessasary. He wasn't paying any mind to the movie, he keep playing with my hair and asking me every ten minutes if I was okay or needed anything.
"Bella you sure?" I nodded looking up at him. "It's just the flew, nothing to go beserk over." He sighed and shook his head. "I don't care what it is.. everything you do or get it something to go crazy over"
I rolled my eyes and kept watching the movie. I started coughing real bad one moment and he alread had a glass of water in his hands. I drank it all as before and was ready for bed. He carried me up to my room and lay-ed me down. "Sleep, it'll help" I rolled over and stared a the wall. I was dead tired but I wanted to stay up, I was afraid I'd have another nightmare.
Edward was laying infront of me rubbing my cheek. "Please stop trying to fight it off Bella, sleep." He kissed my forehead and froze. "What now Edward?" I said. He never resonded just lay there staring into space. When he finally dd look down at me his face was horrified. "Edward?! What's wrong are you ok?!"
He pulled me into his arms and held me, like something horiiable was coming. I feel asleep in his arms, wondering what had him so terrified.
