Chapter 2
Unexpected Problems
B pov
On the PA system, some adult announced that all freshmen where to report to the assembly room. Now Alice, Edward and I had to find that….that shouldn't be hard, right? Wrong. I was wrong, it took us so long that I got so frustrated that I went over to someone who looked like a senior and he said he would show me and winked at me. I blushed.
"Well, actually you're going to have to show me and my siblings." I said, and stepped back next to Alice and Edward. Edward put an arm around me as if to say, 'you are not going to hit on her or I will break your neck.' Sigh, Edward gets so jealous. I will have to talk to him about that later. The guy ignored Edward and said, "My name is Johnathan."
"I'm Bella, and this is my sister Alice and my brother Edward."
"You know, Bella in Italian mean beautiful. It's prefect for you." Johnathan said, and I blushed again. Alice removed Edward's arm from my waist and replaced it with her arm. "So, Bella, do you have a cell phone?" Johnathan asked me as he held the door to the assembly room open for me.
"Yes I do." I said and walked into the assembly room.
"That's my girl. Play hard to get." Alice said, and I giggled. Edward said nothing, but then again he didn't have to. I could tell he was angry and was tempted at breaking Johnathan's neck for flirting with me. We took our seat and we were welcomed by the principle of the school. Everyone was told how the day was going to go. We were to go to our classes like a normal day. Everyone was dismissed and left to go to class. My first class was world history in room A208. Alice was in the same class as me and Edward had algebra 1 in room B202 so we said our good byes and went our separate ways. Alice slid her arm around mine and we went off to find our first class. It didn't take us long to find the room. It was a pretty room; the classroom was painted purple and our teacher Ms. Patton was nice, she introduced herself and then everyone went around saying their names and saying something about themselves. There were 15 kids in the entire class. When it was my turn to introduce my self I said, "Hi my name is Bella and I have not been to high school before." Everyone laughed at my joke, even Ms. Patton. The only one who actually knew what I was talking about was Alice, she just giggled at me. Alice was next. "Hi, my name is Alice and my favorite sport is shopping." Everyone laughed again. After everyone introduced themselves we could go and find our next class. I had English 1 in room K209 and Alice had art 1 in room B203. We said good bye and would catch up at lunch. I went off to go find my class.
"Lost?" I turned around to see who said it and it was Johnathan.
"A little. Can you tell me where to find room K209?"
He nodded and grabbed my hand. What couldn't ask? But I didn't say it out loud. I stopped in front of the room that said K209.
"Thank you." I went to pull away but he wouldn't let go of my hand. "You can let go now." I wait for him to let go but he didn't he just gripped my arm harder. "Stop. Your hurting me." I tried to pull away again, it had no effect.
"I believe she said stop." I knew that voice. Edward.
Johnathan let go of me immediately and walked off. Edward rushed over to me and looked at my arm. There was an imprint of his hand on my arm.
"Thanks." I said. I put my hand on Edward's cheek and stroked him. I tried calming him down. "It's okay. Let's just get to class." I said and opened my hand so that Edward could grab it and go to class with me. I had this class and the rest of my classes with Edward and Alice. Edward pulled me towards two seats in the back and I complied with him. He wouldn't stop staring at the imprint of a hand on my arm. "Eddie. It fine." I said, using the nickname I gave him from when I was younger and couldn't pronounce his full name. He gave me a little smile. At that moment our teacher walked in and introduced himself and we did what we did in our other class. Before I knew it, it was time for lunch. My stomach growled, and Edward laughed. I blushed; it is so embarrassing when your stomach growls and no one else's does.
"Bella! Edward!" called Alice as she ran up to us and looped arms with me. We laughed and went to the lunch line. The food there didn't look appetizing. I just go a salad and Edward and Alice gave me disapproving look as that was all I got. We headed over to a secluded table that would suit our needs. I didn't really eat, I picked at it. Alice and Edward noticed.
"Bella, how about you have some of these fries." Alice said, I just shook my head, I started not to feel good all of the sudden. I just sipped my water and felt like I was going to regurgitate it, so I stopped.
"Bella, what's wrong?" Edward asked me.
"Nothing." I lied. Edward didn't fall for it and neither did Alice. They stopped trying to push food down my throat so I happy about that. Alice and Edward kept exchanging worried looks at each other. I took another sip of water and swallowed. It started to come back up. I pushed away from the table as calmly as I could. I knew Edward and Alice were following. As soon as I was out of site from the other freshmen I ran to the bathroom and went into a stall and threw up all of the contents of my stomach. I moaned. I felt someone-Alice-rubbing my back trying to sooth me. "Bella what happened?"
"I-I don't know. One moment I was fine and the next I felt sick."
"We should get you home."
"No!"
"Bella, you just threw up. I can't let you stay in school when you aren't feeling well!"
"No! I'm not going home! I'm not going home before that bell rings." I gave Alice a look that said, 'I am not going to give in and there is nothing you can do about it.'
"Fine." Alice said frustrated-ly
I cleaned up and we went back outside. Edward was there pacing back and forth. When he saw us, he stopped. He came over and hugged me; I pushed him away because I felt sick again. He looked worriedly at Alice who said, "She refuses to go home till school is over." He looked angry at me for staying at school but didn't say anything. The rest of the day went by like the morning except, I didn't go anywhere without Alice and Edward and didn't see Johnathan. As soon as the bell ringed Alice and Edward rushed me out of the school and to our car. I didn't feel any better, in fact I felt worse. Alice and Edward could tell cause I stopped talking all together and I looked paler and paler with every minute. By the time we left I was as pale as them. Alice drove as fast as she could. Edward kept a hand on me and rubbing circles into my back, trying to sooth me but wasn't working. We got home in record time and door I could even get out of the car, Edward had gotten out and picked me up and was running me into the house. The others sensing something was wrong ran over to us as Edward kept walking and asked, "What happen? Why is Bella so pale?"
Edward replied, "She is sick and wouldn't let us take her home till the end of the day. She has gotten worse ever since lunch."
"What cafeteria food that bad Bells?" Emmet joked but no one laughed and Edward growled at him.
"She didn't eat. She could barely drink water and could hold that down."
Edward laid me on my bed. I was shaking. Mom came over with a thermometer and had me open me mouth, when she saw my temperature, she ran a called Dad, everyone left when she hung up the phone except Edward. He tried soothing me and kept murmuring that everything was going to be fine. The last thing I can remember was Jasper and Dad rushing into the room and dad asking Jasper to put me under. I tried to stay awake but it felt like the darkness was trying to smother me. Jasper said, "Bella stop struggling."
I kept struggling I didn't want to go under. In the end the darkness and Jasper won.
When I woke up, I heard murmuring but I couldn't understand what was being said. I tried to open my eyes but they felt like lead on me. I tried again this time I forced them open. I saw dad and mom talking in the corner of my room. I looked around for Edward, but he was no where to be found. Mom and dad must have noticed that I was awake then because they rushed over to me.
"Bella, how are you feeling?" dad asked.
"I feel awful. I'm sorry." I said
"There is nothing to be sorry about love." My mom said.
"My Sweet, you're going to have to go to the hospital. We need to remove your appendix." Dad said.
"Wait. Why?"
"It is no longer doing any good and it will explode if we don't take care of it now."
I nodded. Great. I'm going to miss so much school because of a stupid appendix! I thought to myself. I went to get out of the bed but was stopped.
"NO, my sweet, I don't want you walking." Dad said and picked me up, I cried out in pain because I was bent and my appendix didn't like that very much. "I'm so sorry, this is going to hurt." Dad said, and saw the look on my face and hurried as much as he could without hurting me so much. It was the worst pain ever. When we got to the car dad slid me in the back seat and mom came in the back to and put my head on her lap. She got my hair out of my face and kept trying to sooth me. I past out because I felt every bump in the rode and with every bump I started to feel more pain.
When I woke up next, there was an annoying beeping sound and I felt sore all over. I opened my eyes. The room I was in was purple and there were balloons and flowers all over the room. The balloons saying 'get well soon.' I went to take the IV out of my arm when a pale hand shot out and grabbed mine, and the voice that belonged to the same person as the hand said, "No, love. You just got out of surgery don't be taking that out."
I looked up and saw Edward and he was frowning.
"Don't frown, you will get pre-mature wrinkles." I said, he laughed at that.
"I was so worried love."
"But I am all better now, so I can go home now, right?"
Edward laughed and stroked my hair. "We shall see love."
