Bella's POV

I was lying in my bed when I suddenly felt somebody's warm breath crawl over my skin. I pried my eyes open to reveal Edward standing over me. His eyes were worried. "Yes?" I managed to choke out. My throat burned and I felt horrible.

Edward was suddenly next to me under the covers. "Are you alright?" he asked coyly trying to mask his worry.

"I am now" I replied softly so I did not strain my vocals.

He sighed, "Please be serious" he stood up turning around and looked deep into my eyes. "Do you feel woozy or unnaturally hot or cold?"

"Not particularly" I lied.

He reached out and put his hand on my forehead. "Warmer than usual, I should take you to Carlisle." He muttered.

"It's just a cold I will get over it," I said with more acid than needed.

"I'm taking you to Carlisle," he added looking deep into my chocolate eyes.

"It's not the same Edward." I said with as much compassion I could manage. He always got worked up when I was sick, it made him think about his parents. I placed my hand on his face. "I might just seem warmer to you because you're so cold"

He looked sadly at me and picked me up. Edward ran down the stairs to his car. It rumbled under my feet. I sighed submissively and laid my head against the back of the seat.


Apparently, i fell asleep in the car. Edward was now pulling me gently out of the seat, pulling me tightly against his stone chest. I rested my hands on him arm and looked up at him weakly. "I'm so…tired" the darkness swirled around in my vision, trapping me. It was drowning me. What was happening? I tried to call out, but i slipped into the ease of unconsciousness.
