Please Enjoy this first chapter. If I don't get 10 reviews it will be discontinued, because I have two other stories in progress.
I stalked behind him, stealthfully. Being very careful, not to make a sound, then when the time was right, I jumped.
He gasped in surprise and fell to the ground. I flipped him over and put my lips to his neck.
"Bella…" He groaned. " Will you stop doing that! I am sick, I don't wan't to contaminate you, I Stood, nose to nose with him, his green eyes bore into mine.
"I will make sure we will always have the same fate," I whispered. " No matter what."
"You are so absurd," I got up off the forest floor, pulling him up too.
"No, I am not, Edward. I don't care if your sick. So are my parents, I am going to get it sooner or later." I brushed my skirt off.
" Come with me." Edward said and started walking again.
"Where are we going?"
"The hospital."
"To see your dad?"
"Yes." He said, grief in his voice, his dad had to be admitted into the hospital 3 nights ago.
"I might as well come, we are neighbors after all." Edward and I lived next to eachother for a decade.
"Exactly, my stubborn bella." I stopped.
"Stubborn? Whatever makes you say that?"
"Going to an influenza hospital, when you are perfectly healthy, with all those germs and-"
"I am just as bad as you. People with 'it' cough every second and you haven't coughed once."
"Your quite right." He sighed. " I am sorry for calling you stubborn."
"You should be."
"Was that a threat?" He mused.
"Possibly…" I said slyly, then he grabbed my hand and pushed my through the doors of the old wooden hospital. We were in the lobby, waiting for permission to see his father. It smelled wretched in here. I had smell the smell once before, but this smell was stronger, much stronger. It was the smell of death. I coughed. Edwards hand tightened around mine. I looked up. His eyes full of worry. I leaned up to his ear and whispered,
"It's the smell, it's absolutely wretched."
"I agree." He breathed in my ear. I shivered. He smiled. I nudged into him then,my dress got caught in his suspenders.
"Ow," I whispered, he looked down and smirked. E tried to get rid of it, then lauged gently,
"it's stuck." He whispered, I pulled, it stayed put. I then leaned away from Edward, there was an audible rip, my lungs filled with open air, and I fell to the floor. My corset ripped open too.
"I can breate again!" I said, just a bit to loud. People glared at me. Edward smirked. Oops, I mouthed. He laughed, people were staring at us, I elbowed him, he looked around and shut his mouth. I bit my lip.
"Mr.Masen, Your father will see you now." He got up, I followed him. The nurse stopped me."Family only."
"She is family." Edward said.
"Oh." She looked embarrassed. " My mistake, carry on." We walked down the dark, gloomy hallway to the room he was staying, Room 512. We opened the door. Edward's father looked horrible. His green eyes, lifeless. His pale skin, paler, it clung around his face making him look 40 years older than his exact age.
"Edward," The frail body's voice was thin and raspy, " Bella.I am glad you guys came." Edward rushed to is side immediately, I stayed close to the door.
"Edward, I love you,son. I was never really a good fater, but you are growing to be a great man in life. Bella, the woman too. I can see you really love her, and she loves you." Edwards eyes wandered toward me, I blushed and smiled. He chuckled. " I approve, if and when you plan to ask for her hand in marriage." I blushed even harder. Edwards eyes shone with pride. We stared at eachother till a loud snore made us jump. Edwards dad had fallen asleep. He chuckled quietly, kissed him on the forehead, then lead me out of the room, and shut the door behind him.
We were in front of my house, Edward had my hands in his. He made a quick stop to his house to take a trip to the 'powder room.'
"My fathers right, Bella."
"With what?"
"I love you, Bella, with all my heart and soul." He got down on one knee. " Will you marry me?" I was shocked, but when his word made sense, I smiled.
"Yes, Edward. Oh, Yes!" I threw my arms around his neck. He kissed me, and I felt something cold wrap around my finger, I brought it up. It had a beautiful diamond heart with crystals around,it. " Oh, Edward! Thank you! I have to go tell mother." He smiled.
"Me too." Then we went our separate ways, when I walked into the foyer, a strange scent hit me. The same scent that was in the hospital, I ran to the parlor, where the scent was strongest. To see Calphurnia, our maid, dead.
Remember, I need ten reviews! Please, pretty please! :)
