THIS IS THE 2ND CHAPTER IN "BROKEN LIMB"

I DO NOT OWN ANY PART OF TWILIGHT

When I woke up, I was laying on the Cullen's couch. I looked around, trying to find him. All of a sudden, I felt cold hands press against my cheeks, and a woman's voice saying,

"Bella, I'm so sorry, will you ever forgive me?" Rosalie questioned frantically.

"Rosalie, where is everyone?" the house was unnormally quiet, "Why are you so sorry?! What's going on?!" I practically screamed at her.

"Bella, Bella, calm down! When you're calm, I'll explain everything! I promise!" Rosalie cried with tears forming in her eyes. I held up my hands in surrender.

"I'm calm," just as a piercing pain ripped thoughout my right leg, "Ah! CRAP!! My leg kills! Rosalie! Help!" I cried, grasping at my leg.

"Just hold still, Bella, you're going to make the berak worse. Just calm down, and I'll explain everything." she said.

"I'm calm, I promise," I winced as another wave of pain swept thoughout my right leg.

"Well first, I asked everyone to leave so I could talk to you alone. Edward put up quite a fight, but he finally obliged. And second, I'm sorry because, "she paused and sighed, "I'm the reason your leg is broken." She stopped, and looked at me, but before I could respond, she cut me off.

"Just listen, and don't say anything ok, please?" I nodded at her.

"Well let me say, first, that it was a total and complete accident. As Edward said, before you blacked out, you were just standign there, lost in your own little world. I was trying to suprise you, because I have a present, well, I really suprised you. You spun around to look at me, and then tripped, and fell out the window. I ran as fast as I could, but I was still too slow. When I got to you, I found you laying very still, and your leg was twisted in a non-normal matter. Oh Bella, I am so sorry. Edward will never forgive me, and I wouldn't be suprised if you never did either." I sat there, dumbfounded, as Rosalie broke out into sobs. I wasn't sure what to say, so I said the first thing that came to mind.

"You got me a present?"

"Oh yea, just hold on a sec ok?" Rosalie sprinted from the living room, and came back before I could wonder where she had went. She flopped herself down in the chair that was next to me. A rectangular box was dropped into my lap.

"Rosalie you didn-"

"Bella, just open it!" Rosalie giggled. I have never ever heard her giggle like that. I opened the box, and there inside was a picture within a beautiful black frame. I examed the picture and started tearing up. It was a picture of the whole Cullen family...plus me. I remember that day as though it was yesterday.

I was just expecting to drive my old Chevy home from work, and then curl up and read a book. Edward was gone hunting for th weekend, and wouldn't be home until Tuesday morning. 'This is going to be a very long weekend' I thought, 'Maybe I should go to La Push and see Jacob. He probably still hates me, but I could give it a shot.' As I was walking to my truck, two giant arms wrapped around me, and covered my mouth.

"What's going on?" I tried to scream.

"Whoa there, Bells! Calm Down! It's m, Emmett! Bealla, please stop trying to bite me, you know it wont do anything to help you." Emmett said, letting go of my mouth, but still holding my arms tight against my sides.

"Emmett, wheres Edward?" Before I could finish my sentence, he put a blindfold over my eyes, and threw me up onto his back.

"Hold on Bells!" Emmett boomed. I sighed and decided it would just be easier to go along with it, than to try to fight the bear of my future brother-in-law. He started running untill we reached the Cullen house. Once we reached the door, Alice grabbed me by the hand and dragged me up stairs, and into her bathroom.

" Tell me what's going on now. Please Alice? Please??" I demanded. Alice just kept humming to herself, and putting some makeup on my face. She quick threw up my hair into rollers, and then brought them down just as quickly.

"Done!" she chimmed, "Let's go!". She pulled me back down stairs to find the whole family dressed up in their best. Edward came to my side, wrapped his arm around my wasit, and whispered into my ear.

"Esme wanted a family photograph, and you're part of this family", and then quickly added before I could say anything, "Bella Marie Swan, you look absolutly geogeous. Now c'mon." I have never seen the little sparkle in his eye..so sparkley. I nodded, as he pulled me over to stand next to Rosalie. She wrapped one arm around my sholder, and the other around Emmet's waist. I looked at her, and she flashed me a brilliant smile.

"Bella! Earth to Bella!" Rosalie snapped me out of my trance like state. I flung my arms around her, and hugged her tightly.

"Thank you so much," I whispered, " I love the picture. I forgive you, it was just an accident. I'll talk to Edward, he'll come to forgive you too." All of a sudden, I felt a warm draft floating across my neck. Rosalie whispered in my ear,

"Bella, do not move."

"Why-", but then I heard the deep laughter coming from behind me.
