Chapter 2

Bella's Point of View

I felt the chill of the Volturi's Castle and shivered. I stayed close to Edward. We were moving toward Aro whose blood red eyes were looking at me. They sent shiver down my spine. And next to him were Caius and Jane. The beautiful girl with the traitorous eyes gave me a fright. Aro smiled at me in an evil way.

"Ah Bella what a pleasure to meet you" he said taking my hand.

"It's a pleasure" I said in a frightened whisper

"Yes, when Edward came to me yesterday I knew I had to say no to his request. But now you are safe. Isn't that lovely, I just adore happy ending…don't you Jane?" she glared at me and just said "Yes Aro." And then suddenly Edward was gone and so was Alice. The only people that surrounded me were the Volturi's who were coming closer to me and quickly closing in on me. I cried out for help but no one came. And then- I woke up from the vivid dream, gasping. I was in Carlisle's study, and Carlisle was holding me down but the queasiness came over me and I pushed him away quickly and ran away to the bathroom. Then I felt Carlisle's hand on my back and rubbing circles around my back. I cried into his shoulder.

"Shhh…Isabella" I hated that name but the way he said. It had so much love and concern in it I didn't say anything.

I looked up at him "Carlisle?"

"Yes?" he said.

"Can you help me up?"

"Of course dear" he said. Carlisle grabbed my arm and helped me steady myself and then I rinsed my mouth out and he helped me into his study. I fell onto the soft couch and lied down.

"Bella, how long have you've been dehydrated like this?" he asked in a soft but concerned voice.

"Since Friday, I ran away into the woods and I haven't eaten since dinner on Thursday night"

"Oh Bella you don't know how bad this is for your health! Can you stand up for me?" I tried to stand up but then I was over whelmed with a dizziness that made me fall back. Carlisle caught me and sat me on the couch. I fell unconscious.

Carlisle's Point of View

She was severely dehydrated and she fell unconscious to the couch. I quickly went to my bag and got out an IV to put fluid into her body. I injected the needle into her body slowly. She twitched and pulled away.

"Bella" I said running my hand through her hair "I know you don't like needles but you are dehydrated you need this. Can I please have your hand?"

She smiled at me and weakly gave me her hand. I injected her with the needle and relaxed slightly when there were fluids in her body. I grabbed a cloth and cleaned off the dirt she had on her face and arms. I found that she had fresh scratches and they were deep. I grabbed my bag and injected some medicine into her body so it would numb the area. She twitched and I looked up at her. Her eyes were starting to open.

"Carlisle?"

"yes dear its me. Can you tell me how you got these cuts?"

"I fell…"

"That's what I thought" I said sewing up the last of them. Then I wanted to see that her abdomen was ok. "May I?" I said my hand over her stomach. She nodded at me weakly. I put pressure on her stomach, then I heard her gasp slightly.

"Does it hurt?"

"No" she down plaid it and I could tell she was lying. "Bella you are sick enough please tell me if it hurts"

She sighed "Yes, it does"

"It probably hurts because you haven't eaten" I looked at her and she looked upset "Bella what is it?"

"I don't think I'll ever be able to sleep without seeing the Volturi"

"Bella, you have been brave. The whole time since we left. I was surprised you didn't hurt yourself or worse. Now that you have met the Volturi you must understand that the Volturi believe in there own way of living then we do…" she nodded at me and looked away. Then I heard her stomach grumble.

I chuckled "I think your hungry" she nodded at me weakly and I went downstairs to get her something.

"Carlisle?"

"Yes sweetheart?"

"Thank you…dad" I smiled at her and if my heart was beating it would beat with happiness and care.

"No problem darling"
