My head was not better an Edward insisted on calling. I knew I would be fine. It was just one of those days where you didn't feel as good as you should. I was dying or anything. The doctor walked in, no older than myself. He was tall and muscular, with black hair and a bright smile.

"Hi, I'm Dr. Black." (Jacob) He said shaking my hand.

"Bella." I said.

"Well what seems to be the problem today?" (My dick head doc always asks that...goodness I hate doctors...except Carlisle.)

"Headache." I said looking at Edward. I could tell something was wrong with him. He was unhappy. He looked like someone had just told him his dog got run over.

"Hm..." Jacob did everything that doctors do, then gave me some instructions before leaving. All he said was to rest and drink lots of fluid. I didn't need to pay someone to tell me that. Edward stayed with me until I started to feel better. It was around seven so a maid brought me some food. I ate with Edward starring at me. It made me feel weird but it gave me a reason to stare at him.

When I finished up Edward and I sat there a few seconds staring at each other.

"I think I am going to take a bath." I said to Edward.

"Alright, you can come see me if you want when you are done." He said before disappearing. I took a bath quicker than I thought possible ready to get back to Edward. When I walked into his room, he pulled me to he and I gasped in surprise. I didn't even get to knock before he pulled me to him. I pulled him closer to me and we stayed lie that for a while until he pulled away and pulled me into his room. Closing the door behind us.

He kissed me on the lips lightly. I wanted more, but I didn't know if Edward did so I let him pull away.

"I think its your bed time." Edward said, walking over to the bed with me and laying down with me.

I was just about to go to sleep when Edward's door flew open. I turned toward the noise and there was Alice.

"Sorry, but Edward I think you need to SEE something." Everyone stayed quiet for a while. Knowing what Alice and Edward's powers were I knew what they were doing.

"When?" Edward asked almost immediately.

"I don't know." Alice said before walking away, closing the door behind her.

"What is it Edward?" I asked sleeply.

"Nothing Bella. Don't worry."

"Edward tell me please." I begged. He really had me curious. He sighed deeply before speaking.

"Alice had a vision that you were going to be taken by my enemy."

"Who is that?" I barely could keep my eyes open.

"James, he had a little coven of his own. Victoria and Louis...or Lauren...No! Laurent, that's it." He said. I sat up. I was almost to tired to care, almost.

"What? Edward? Why-"

"Bella, Bella, calm down. We are not going to let it happen. You will be fine. I promise." With his reasurring words calmed me down. I laid back down and fell asleep.

Edward woke me in the morning and I was not quite ready to get up.

"Bella, wake up. We are going to your home today." He said.

"Why?" I asked groggly.

"Because, James is coming here and we need to get away. Plus I thought you might want to get some of your things that were left."

"Fine." I said sitting up.

"Wear your riding clothes. We are going to go through the forest." Edward left and I quickly got ready to go riding. I pickedup my father's sword. I knew that Edward would be with me, but I remembered the last time and I was not going to go with out a weapon even if Iw as with Edward.

I guessed Edward would be in the stables and when I walked in and found him I knew I was right.

"Edward?" I said. He turned around to look at me.

"Bella." He said, greeting me.

I went over to help him. He was saddling his horse. Mine was already saddled. He finished up then lifted me up on my horse. He got on his then started to trott. I followed him out when he started to go faster and faster. Edward was on his huge stallion and I was on my horse. He was of course faster than me and I had to run my horse harder. After an hour I stopped. Edward's horse might be strong enough to take it, but mine was not going much longer. Edward stopped his horse when he heard that I had, turning around and meeting me.

Before he could reach me I was pulled away and everything became a blur. Then I was thrown on the ground, hard. I hit my head and I could smell the blood. I was there yet not there. Like it is right before you pass out. Which was what I was about to do.

Edward and another man were walking in a circle around each other then it all became a mess of blurs. I passed out before I could see who won and who lost.

Edward PVO:

The fight with James was easy. I easily dismembered him and burned him. I was glad that Bella was out so she could not see this. I knew that it was wrong to say that, but i didn't want her to see me like that. When James was safely dead for good, I ran over to Bella. The time that it took seemed longer to me, but really it only took about three minutes.

I rushed over to Bella. James had not been easy with her and she was badly bruised and had cuts all over her. Her hand also seemed to be broken. I picked her up and ran her back to the house with out even thinking about anything.

Bella PVO:

When I woke up I was instanly hit by the pain. I didn't look around. I didn't move a muscle. It all still hurt. I felt as if I was going to die. No. I felt like I was in the process of dying. I started to cry. My head was hurting and my wrist was killing me. (please remember that back then there was no pain meds)

I suddenly felt something cold on the side of my face and I opened my eyes. Edward was looking at me with a pained look on his face.

"Bella? How are you?"

"Uh.." It was the only thing that I could get out. It was the only thing that my body would allow me to say.

"I'm sorry Bella. This was all my fault. Alice said you would feel better tommorow though." I wanted to tell him that it was not his fault, but I was in too much pain and I just didn't feel like it.

"Get some sleep Bella. I will be right here." He said, slidding his hand through mine just as my eyes closed.

&&&&&

Edward was right. When I woke up I felt much better. I was able to actually move a little bit. I was incredibly tired through it all though. I had gotten barely any sleep at all, having night mares through out the night of James getting to Edward. That was the one thing I feared most. Like, it was okay if he got to me and Edward was fine, but if Edward got hurt, with me or not, I was terrified.

I wanted him to know how much I loved him.

I wanted him to say it back. I wanted to be able to kiss him all the time. When ever I wanted. I wanted to be with Edward for ever. And by forever I meant forever. I wanted Edward to change me. I knew I was thinking to far ahead. I mean, he kissed me, but, he didn't say 'hey bella I love you' or anything close.

And who would like me? What would give Edward reason to like me? I am an average looking girl, skinny, and I am clumsy. He could easily find someone else, someone better. Much better. Edward was perfect. The man of every girl's dream. I just had to hope that I was enough for him and he didn't want someone else.

"Edward?" I called. I had just woken up from a nap and I wanted Edward to be with me.

"Yes?" He said walking in the door and closing it behind him, then coming to sit on the edge of my bed.

"Don't leave me." I said, fear evident in my voice.

"Bella, I will not leave you, but trust me when I say you will be fine. I will keep you safe, my love." My love? What does that mean? No Bella. No. It was just a common thing for him to say. Nothing serious. Right?

"I'm scared Edward. I feel like something bad is going to happen." I said closing my eyes and opening them slowly to stare into his worried ones.

"I'm sorry Bella. This is all probably my fault."

"Don't be sorry Edward."

"Easier said than done." He replied, glancing away from me. Suddenly Alice walked into the room just as she had before telling Edward about James. This time her expresion was not much different. They all looked calm around me. Edward and her had a silent conversation then Alive left.

"Edward...?" I questioned.

"It isn't over yet." He stated.

Thanks for all your reviews, sorry it took so long for me to get this out... I have a speech to give at a convention over child development so I have been preparing for it. I'm sorry it isn't longer... I planned one extending it, but I haven't gotten much sleep lately and now is the perfect time...

Thanks,

XOXO,
