A/N: Thank you guys for the reviews. Some people asked me a few questions and here are my answers.
1.)Am I am going to do other POVs? Yes I am. Actually this chapter I am going to.
2.)Does Bella's blood still have the same effect on Edward? Yes it does. But when they first meet he isn't thirsty and since Bella has so many bruises and she doesn't eat enough her blood is weaker.
I believe in love at first sight and this story is just portraying how strong it is. And how even stronger it is between Edward and Bella. They are both finding what they thought they could never have and how it blossoms under intense circumstances, in a short amount of time. Ok personal feelings rant over. Haha.
Okay here is the chapter. Enjoy!
I would love to thank the Goo Goo Dolls for helping me through my small dose of writer's block.
Once again a revised version.

Chapter 4
Hospital
We arrived at the hospital in three minutes due to Edward's obsession with driving a 100 mph. He parked and we got out of the car. He came over to me and grabbed my hand. He pulled my hand up to his cheek and rubbed the back of my hand against it. He dropped my hand, leaned down and gave me a peck on my lips. He smiled a crooked smile and literally, took my breath away. How could he get anymore beautiful?
We walked through the hospital doors and to the elevator. He pushed the button for the fourth floor. When we started moving, I took a deep breath. I was always nervous whenever I got on a elevator. I had this weird feeling about being in a box that was suspended over nothing.
Edward noticed how tense I was, "What's wrong?"
"I have a little phobia of elevators." I admitted. Who is scared of being on a elevator? Me, of course.
"Your afraid of being in a elevator but not of being with a vampire?" he laughed.
I love his laugh. "I feel like I have a better chance of the elevator plummeting into the basement then being killed by you."
He laughed again. "Bella, Bella. What am I going to do with you?" I laughed with him. The doors had opened and we walked out into the busy hospital floor. I sighed with relief to be off the elevator. Edward chuckled, shaking his head.
He led me to pass the nurse's station, turned left down a hallway, past rooms full of the sick, and then he turned right to a hallway that had mostly offices. He went to a door that said "Dr. Carlisle Cullen" and knocked.
I heard voice inside, "Come in."
We went in and I saw another inhumanly beautiful person. He had blonde hair and the same honey colored eyes I had been staring into all afternoon. He couldn't have been any older then 26 at the most. Too young to be a doctor. He had a very kind smile that reached his eyes.
He spoke first, "Edward. I wasn't expecting you." then he turned to me, "Hello. I am Carlisle Cullen, Edward's father."
"Hi, I'm Bella Swan." I answered timidly.
His face fell a little, "Are you Chief Swan's daughter?"
I hated being associated with that disgusting excuse of a man, "Yes."
Edward said, "Bella, has something very important she would like to talk to you about." Edward looked at me and smiled. His face told me that it was ok to tell.
I took a deep breath, "Dr. Cullen, I have been abused everyday by my father. I am afraid that if I continue to live with my father I might lose my life." I practically was in tears by the time I finished my sentence.
"Do you wish for me to report this, Bella?" Carlisle gave me a look of , not pity, but empathy, of compassion.
It gave me the strength to answer, "Yes, I do."
"When was the last time he hit you?"
I gulped, thinking back to last night. " Last night." I drifted to my memory of last night as I continued, "I was just about to put his dinner on a plate, when he walked into the kitchen demanding his dinner. I couldn't get it to him fast enough. He took the plate and threw it at me. It shattered against my head. Then everything went black. I woke up I was on the floor and Charlie was standing over me. He kicked me in the ribs and got another plate. I thought he was going to throw it but he just got his own dinner. He left and went and watched TV." I surprised at how calm I had remained, retelling my horror story.
EPOV
I watched as Bella struggled to tell what had happened to her the night before. I could feel the anger blazing inside of me. I wanted to go to her house, and kill her father.
After she finished, Carlisle spoke. "Bella, I will fill out a report. I will give you a check up to make sure everything is all right."
Bella replied with tears in her eyes, "Thank you."
She started to break down. I pulled her into my arms. I saw the surprised look on Carlisle face. Then I heard his thoughts.
She is more than just a friend. Didn't you just meet her today?
I nodded my head.
Well, that is a story I would like to hear.
Then Carlisle said, "Well Bella, lets get you into a gown and we can start your check up."
Bella merely nodded and followed Carlisle. She had a firm grip on my hand. She had no intent of letting it go. We followed Carlisle to a exam room. Once inside he handed Bella a gown. I turned to leave, to give her some privacy to change. She looked at me with scared eyes.
"I'll be right back." I reassured her. I pulled her into a kiss. Her heart sped up. I pulled away and smiled. She smiled back. I loved how, when she smiled, her entire self just lit up. It touched every where, from her head to her toes. As I left I closed the door. Carlisle was standing outside the door, waiting for me.
"Edward, I understand you are an adult. But I have to ask, what are you doing?"
"I'm in love with her." Carlisle raised in eyebrows in understanding. "I don't know what it is. When I saw her and looked into her eyes I felt my heart lurch. It was the most unusual, wonderful feeling. Then she sat down next to me, and her scent hit me. I could feel the monster inside me. She smelled so good and at first I wasn't sure I could be with her but then I looked into her eyes and I knew I could never hurt her. Everything about her pulls me in deeper. I have never felt like this before."
Carlisle patted me on the back, "I understand. But, Edward she is human. How is that going to work?"
"It will work. I know it will."
"Ok Edward. Let's go see if Bella is ready."
Another cliffy for you. Hope you liked it. REVIEW PLEASE!!! Constructive criticism.
