The impact knocked me to the ground, causing me to wince in pain. A huge hand shot down towards me. I grabbed it and was pulled up face to face with a guy that looked like a body builder. He had curly brown hair and brown eyes. He was extremely tall, 6"3 or so, had huge muscled arms and a warm smile. And good god he was gorgeous. Like model gorgeous. I felt like I could stare at him for hours.
"I am so sorry for running into you like that!" I apologized, breathing a bit harder because of the pain in my ribs. I didn't think I could handle much more abuse to my body today.
"Its okay. I'm Emmett Cullen." He chuckled and stuck out his hand. I took it and electricity ran through my body. It kinda freaked me out so I pulled my hand back.
"Oh! Alice's brother! I'm Isabella Swan but, please call me Bella." I smiled. Recognition dawned on Emmett's face and he smiled.
"Bella! My sister talks about you all the time!" he exclaimed.
"She talks about you too, but when-" I was cut of short by a high pitched squeal behind me. I looked behind me and there Alice was, running towards Emmett and I at full force. I quickly moved out of the way to watch her slam into Emmett full force, knocking him back a few steps. He picked her tiny form up at least a foot off the ground.
"Em! I thought you weren't coming to school till tomorrow! " she exclaimed as he put her down.
"I wasn't, but then I decided that I wanted to meet the infamous Bella as soon as possible. And plus I was stuck in that house too long. It gets way to boring without anyone to annoy" he replied teasingly, nudging Alice gently. She laughed and nudged him back. Alice turned to me, an extravagant smile radiated on her face.
"Bella, This is Emmett Cullen, the wonderful big brother I have been telling you all about."
"Um Alice, we already met." But of course, Alice being Alice, she completely ignored me and went on with her introduction.
"Emmett, this is my bestest friend in the whole world, Bella." she put her hand on my shoulder and kissed me on the cheek.
"Alice, I guess I'm gonna have to tell you this again before you go all spaztastic on us. I just introduced myself to her when she fell into me like five minutes ago. I'm sorry to crush your dreams." Emmett spoke slowly, like he was like he was addressing a child. I don't think she liked that because she punched him in the ribs. He laughed as the breath was knocked out of him.
"God! Your still like a little UFC fighter aren't ya sis?" Emmett chuckled deeply.
"Well you know me. Always on the alert. I'm like a ninja!" Alice swung her hand back and, not noticing that I was there, accidentally elbowed me in the ribs. I gasped as the pain shot through my already sore body, causing me to drop to my knees. I heard her gasp.
"Oh my god Bella! Are you ok?I am so sorry! So so sorry." she apologized as I struggled to catch my breath.
"I-It's oka-ughh!" i gasped as another pain shot through my body and I collapsed on the ground. Oh my god this hurt so bad. I heard Alice calling my name somewhere in the back of my mind. The pain increased rapidly until I finally passed out, slipping into the blissful dark of unconsciousness.

As I saw Bella collapse, I knew something more than Alice accidentally elbowing her was wrong.
"Hey! don't just stand there! Someone get help!" Alice screamed frantically with tears screaming down her face. A few people started panicking and some started crying, but noone was helping the situation. Were these people deaf, or just stupid? So instead of letting Bella lie there without any help, I pulled out my cell phone and called 911.
"911 what is your emergency?" an operator asked.
"Umm yea my sisters friend collapsed and passed out just now and shes barely breathing!" I replied frantically.
"Okay sweetie calm down. Where are you at?" she asked calmly.
"I'm at Forks high school." I replied still panicked.
"Which high school?" she asked.
"The only damn high school in forks!" I felt my face grow hot with anger.
"Now sir, no need to get angry. I'll get some one down there as soon as possible."
"How soon is that? She might be dead by the time y'all get here!"
"An ambulance will be there within 10 minutes. Now just calm down okay."
"Fine. I have to go just hurry for gods sake." I hung up without listening to her response.
"Bella! Honey wake up! " I heard Alice cry as I walked over to her. People were every where and the principal was now running towards her.
"How long has she been like this?" he asked.
"About ten minutes. I think she passed out from the pain." Alice spoke, trying to calm herself. We all stood there trying to wake Bella up for a few minutes. Finally, the ambulance showed up. They took Bella and put her on the stretcher. Even in her unconscious state she groaned in pain. The EMT's put her in the ambulance and sped off. Alice wanted to leave to go to the hospital with her but the principal told her just to let Bella rest. She obliged and we all went to our classes.

I was unfocused all day and got absolutely nothing done. All I could think about was Bella, collapsing on the ground and passing out. I knew that she was hurt and that she was lying about how she had got hurt, but why. Why would she do something like that to me. I had a feeling that I knew who did it. Actually I positively knew who did it. That stupid, no good, unfit, alcoholic of a father did it. He played big bad Chief Swan when he was around everyone else. All protecting people from crime. Grr he was such a hypocrite. I could bet all the money in the world and all the clothes in my closet that it was him who did this to her.
"Alice... Alice? MRS. Cullen!" Mr. Knowels, my trig teacher, nearly screamed.
"What!" I was so close to losing my temper.
"What is the answer?"
" 4x times 3 to the foruth power squared. Is that all?" I was now aggravated.
"Yes thank you." then the bell rang to signal the end of the day. I grabbed my stuff and flew to my car, where I almost ran into Emmett. He was getting into his huge jeep.
"Emmett! Do you wanna come to the hospital to see Bella with me?" I asked.
"Uhhh sure Al, why not?" he spoke like it was a question.
"Then let's go!" I said. Then we got in our vehicles made our way to the hospital. Emmett had to follow me in his jeep because he didn't know this place all that well. Before we got to the hospital, I stopped and bought Bella a dozen white roses, some chocolate, and a giant teddy bear. After that was done we headed to the hospital. When we got there, I handed Emmett all the stuff that I bought Bella and ran up to the reception desk.
"Isabella Swan." I said. The receptionist looked up at me and smacked her gum noisily and typed a little on her computer.
"Room 312 hons." she replied. I ran to room 312 with Emmett right on my tail. I walked in and saw Bella lying on the bed,an IV in her hand, apparently sleeping. Emmett and I sat down in the chairs to await her wakening. I couldn't believe how fragile she looked, covered in bruises. The sight made me want to cry. This was my best friend and even though I knew she was clumsy, I knew for a fact that she wasn't this clumsy. I had to get the truth out of her because I just couldn't see her hurt like this anymore.
