(Alice's POV)
Em, Bella and I were on are way home from school. We pull up to the drive and em stops his jeep.
"Ali can you get the mail?" He asks.
"Sure" I say and UN harness and jump out. I walk the three feet to the mail box and grab the mail. Once I'm back in the car em drive up our half mile driveway. I look at the mail and see an envelope from the hospital with my name on it. I open it and start reading.
To Ms. Alice McCarthy,
The staff here at fork hospital is sad to announce that Dr. Rebecca Patterson has taken a different job at Seattle grace. We are sorry for the inconvenience with switching to a new doctor. Your new doctor is Dr. Carlisle Cullen DPM, MS, MD, GP. We still have you scheduled for November 12th at 3:45 P.M. remember to arrive ten minute before your appointment
Sincerely,
The staff at forks hospital
I start muttering to myself and em notices.
"Alice what's wrong?" he asks.
"Dr. Patterson left for Seattle" I say.
"WHAT!" Bella yells. We park in the garage and I run in the house.
"MOM" I yell.
"In the kitchen" she says and the three of us hurry to the kitchen.
"What's wrong?" she asks.
"I got the mail and there was an envelope for me from the hospital" I say.
"Ok?" mom asks.
"Dr. Patterson left fork for a job at Seattle and a male doctor Dr. Cullen took her place" I say.
"Oh" she says.
"Yeah I only trust Dr. Patterson" I say.
"Alice what am I supposed to do?" she says.
"Take me to Seattle for my appointments" I say.
"Me too" Bella says.
"I don't care" Emmett says.
"Girls I can't drive you to Seattle for a doctor's appointment. That's three and a half hour drive!" She says.
"But mom" Bella and I start.
"No! You will see Dr. Cullen and that's final." She says
"Fine" I say before turning and running out of the room and upstairs to my room.
"Alice" mom calls.
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" I scream and slam my door. I lay on my bed and cry. I didn't want to see a male doctor. I didn't wan him knowing about secret. There's a knock on the door.
"Who is it?" I ask.
"It's me" Bella says.
"It's open" I say. She opens the door and comes next to me.
"I know you're mad with mom but you need to forgive her. I understand why she doesn't want to drive three and a half hours to take you and me to the doctor" She says as she sits next to me on the bed.
"I know but i dont like th fact that hes a stranger and i will have to tell him about my secret" i say.
"Alice he wont judge you because of your rape" She says as she hugs me. I lean into her and she hugs me tighter.
"Hey you two" em say from my doorway. I pat the bed next to me and he walks across the room and sits down next to me. We sit there in silence until em clears his thoat.
"Mom sent me up here to tell you dinner is done" he says. Bella lets go of me and stands up. Em walks to the door and bella follows.
"You coming" em asks.
"No" i say.
"Ali come on i know your mad at mom but you cant blame her thats a long ass ride" em says.
"Fine but dont expect me to talk to her just yet i'm still peeved" i say and stand up. I walk with them out my door and em grabs me ontop of the stairs and throws me over his shoulder.
"EM" i squeal as he run down the stairs.
"Green 56" he calls and then set me down in the kitchen.
"Do you want everything?" em asks.
"Whats for dinner?" i ask.
"Baked italian chicken, angel hair pasta with herbs and green beans" He says.
"Yeah" I say and take my spot at the table. He makes me a plate and sets it don infront of me.
"Milk?" he asks and i nod. He get me glass and then gets his plate. We sit down and say grace and start eating.
"How was school today?" Mom asks.
"Good i got an A- on my chemistry test" Em says.
"I got picked to in sewing to design th class project for the art show and the fair" Bella says.
"Good job both of you" mom says and looks at me. I look down at my food.
"Alice got the highest test score in her biology class" Bella says.
"Good job baby" Mom says and i just nod.
"So next week Alice you have your doctor's appointment. DO i need to bring anything?" she asks.
"I don't know" i say and throw the stupid letter across the table. She picks it up and reads it.
I finish eating and stand up. I excuse myself and head upstairs to my room. I hook up my Bluetooth headphones and start to do homework. I get poked and i look up and em is standing there. I pull out my earbuds and look at him. "Come talk" He says and pulls me to my bed. We sit and i look at him.
"I know you're still not happy but you need to calm down. I know you don't like the idea of a male doctor but give him a chance. He could be better than dr. Patterson" em says as he pulls me into his lap.
"Emmett you don't know anything. You really think I can talk to a male about my rape." I yell.
"You talked to me about it" he states.
"Your my brother not my doctor and it's more awkward with a doctor and he might want to examine me down there. wanted to do one" I say.
"Shh mom has to consent to that and I'm sure she can tell him no" em says.
"Whatever" I say and get out of his lap and go to my window seat.
"Alice tell me what is going to make you happy again" he says.
"Mom not making me see Dr. Cullen " I say and he sighs.
"You know I can't do that" he says.
"Just get out please" I say.
"Alice don't keep your emotions bottled up" He says.
"GET OUT!" I scream and throw my pillow at him. He ducks and then gets ups and leaves the room. I sit in my room and look out the window. God why can't they understand I don't want a male doctor. I close my eyes and try to relax.
"Leave her be" I hear mom says and my door is closed. I fall asleep with my face against the window.
