Darkest Secret
Chapter 2: Waiting
Jacob
Bella was in Forks' Hospital. She was out for days. I always talked to her, hoping she could hear. The doctors advised me that she was in a coma, and wouldn't be able to hear anybody. I still tried. Occasionally, Bella's mouth would twitch, even when I didn't say anything. Her heartbeat failed twice before, once when I was in the middle of talking, and once when I was almost asleep. Both times I was kicked out. The nurse told me it was because she was losing blood when she was cut, and that caused her heart to fail. Another was no more oxygen in her system. That added on, needle after needle. I was immediatley worried. Bella may never wake up if this continues. She might even die. I held her hand, wincing when I saw the deep slashes on her arm. I made them. And I'll always be to blame.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Black, but you'll have to leave now," a nurse said as she put more medicine into the IV.
I was pacing outside, pondering on whether I should tell her or not. If she ever wakes up. I left for home.

I got a call, saying that Bella had finally woken up. I got dressed and ran to my car. On the drive to the hospital, I once again wondered if I should tell her. I settled on having her figure it out. I ran inside.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Black, but she's talking to her father, please wait." In a louder voice, she said, "I'm afraid that goes for you, too, Mr. Cullen."
