1Dearest readers,
I am truly sorry for the lack of updates. I've been on vacation for the last little while. I've also had not so much writers block, I'm just not sure of a few little details in the story. I think I just need someone to bounce ideas off of, so if anyone would like to help, please message me or review saying you'd like to help, whatever! I would appreciate it SO much. Again, thank you for reading my story, it means a lot!
Chapter Two
The sun danced across my face as I slowly enter the world of the living. I crack my eyes open to reveal a strange room. As I sit there, lying as still as a corpse, the day before floods into my memory. My new life, a new start, my family. A smile slowly creeps onto my face as I realize that I will never be without a family ever again. I must have sat there for ages, just basking in my thoughts. I was so lost inside my own head, I nearly jumped out of my skin when I heard a voice behind me.
"Good morning, Abby." I whipped my head around to the door to see none other than my long lost sister leaning against the door jamb with an amused expression on her face. I could still see the underlying depression in her features.
"Bella!" I squeal, jumping up and skipping over to her, "Good morning to you, beautiful!" I enclose her in my arms, giving her a heartwarming embrace. She hesitantly wraps her arms around my thin frame and squeezes ever so slightly. When I finally release her, I step back and take a good look at her face. I was surprised to see a grin spreading over her mouth. It doesn't quite reach her eyes, but it's almost there. This makes me shockingly angry. Whoever this Edward is, I want him to hurt. I want him to hurt so much he can hardly bear it. How could anyone do this to poor, sweet Bella. It disgusts me. Bella notices the change in me.
"Are you okay, Abby? You seem a little... uh... hostile." She looks genuinely concerned. This touches my heart. People have cared about me all my life, but not like this. Not like a true sister would.
"Aw, Bella. I'm so glad that I found you. I just know we're going to be so close, we'll be inseparable!" I again, crush her with my hug. I can hear a soft laughter coming from her. This time, she embraces me with the same forte as I was hugging her.
"You're such a sweetheart. So, Dad thought you and I could go shopping today to form a 'sisterly bond'," she quotes with her fingers. I could sense the distaste of the activity. I wasn't a big fan of shopping either, must be some sisterly relation.
"Could we maybe stay home and 'form a sisterly bond' through movies instead?" I asked innocently. Bella couldn't look more pleased.
"Thank you!" she breathed out. "Let's head downstairs and see what we can burn, shall we?" I chuckled at her joke. I was just about to step out my bedroom door, when a splitting headache hit me like a brick wall. I cried out in pain and dropped to my knees. This is pain I have never felt before. I honestly feels like someone took a thousand knifes and drive them into my head at the same time. My breathing is laboured, due to the excruciating pain in my head. Bella is frozen where she is. My guess is that she is in shock. Just when I think I can't take anymore, the pain subsides just as fast as it came. I slowly raise my head to look at Bella. Her face is as white as a sheet, and her hands have a slight shake to them. I grasp one of them, and hoist myself off the ground. I can just imagine how I must look.
"Abby," Bella whispers, "What happened?" It takes me a few moments to answer. My head is still spinning.
"I'm not sure. My head. It just...exploded with pain." I looked at Bella. She was staring at me, looking afraid and helpless. She gave my hand a small squeeze and towed me down the stairs. She dropped my hand and went over to the sink, returning to me with a glass of water and a small white tablet at hand. I gave her a look that had confused written all over it.
"Advil." She explained. I nodded in recognition, and swallowed the medication. Bella went and plunked herself down on the kitchen chair furthest away from the stairs. She gestured to the chair across from her, and I eased my self down into the chair.
"Maybe we should take you to a doctor or something, Abby. I don't want you to get too sick! We just got you here!" Bella was still talking in her small, quiet voice, but I could tell she was worried. It was probably just an aftereffect of the shock of yesterday, thats all. I voiced this idea, but she wouldn't hear of it.
"Why don't we wait, and if it happens againl we'll go to the doctor right away." I negotiated.
"Fine, but right away, alright?"
"Yes, Mom." Even though it was a joke, it still made a lump form in my throat. I've never been this close to anyone. Not even Sophie. It was then and there that I swore to heal Bella. No matter what it took. It wasn't fair for her to be broken so I was going to fix her. The rest of the day was spent lazing around on the couch, and watching chick flicks. To many people, this is an ideal lazy day. But to me, it was perfect.
Im sorry this sucked so much!
