--------------------------------------APOV (Alice) ----------------------------------------------------Bella was strange I have never seen a human with a true power before, and she taught a class that is odd. I have never seen her in a vision and the others can't sense her either. She took us all by surprise several times in the last few hours, before she passed out. I'm worried about her she is thin, too thin and she looks so tired, almost like us.
I picked her up and took her to Edwards car sitting in the front seat with her cradled in my arms Rosalie got in the drivers seat and headed home to Carlisle.
When we entered the house both Esme and Carlisle looked surprised not only to see us home early on our first day but to see me with an unconscious human,
"Alice what's wrong with the poor girl?" Carlisle asked. Between Rosalie and myself we related the story to our parents almost perfectly. When we were through Carlisle signaled me to take Bella up to his office to get a better look at her to see if anything were wrong. I placed Bella on the leather couch and stepped back.
Carlisle muttered too low for even me to hear as he checked her over. When he was finished he looked truly worried.
"Alice, think that she is very ill. If I am correct the energy it takes to have a power will kill her if she stays human, she shouldn't even have been able to move around in the state she's in…"
"I already know that Carlisle…no hospit…al" Bella's voice said from the couch before she went back to sleep. I looked at this frail girl with curiosity, how could she take being ill so lightly. Then I realized there was no humanly way to take her power away and the only way for her to bare it would be to change her.
"Alice we should probably let her rest and speak to her when she wakes up, I am going to get an IV drip to put in her arm, take her to a spare room."
I did as I was told and waited looking at Bella as she slept. Though thin she was beautiful, her hair was long and curly, and her beauty rivaled Rosalie's. I do not think I have ever met a vampire or human who was as smart as she either. When Carlisle entered the room with an IV bag I headed downstairs to wait on the boys.
I called Bella's house and left a message saying that she would be spending the night.
"Alice, she's really sick isn't she?" Rosalie questioned with concern.
"Yes she is" I sighed
"We are going to change her." Rose stated
"I cant see anything about her Rose, but I think we will, I hope we will."
Then we just sat there pondering our thoughts. For some reason I liked this strange human, I hope that we do change her she would be a good sister to have; a new shopping
buddy.
It was after midnight when the boys came home , as the entered the house I told Edward to stop breathing and everyone except our parents went outside to talk.
"Alice is she in there?" Edward questioned
"Edward you're the mind reader what do you think?" Edwards face went from a look of aggravation to a look of concern.
"Is she ok did I scare her that badly?" I let my mind open to let him know what is wrong. His face was shocked when he realized how sick Bella was, and to my relief he looked worried for her welfare.
He headed inside before any of us could move to stop him.
------------------------------BPOV-----------------------------------------------------------------------
My head was pounding when I woke up in a dark room. I remember the events of the evening an closed my eyes. I felt an IV in my arm and knew that I was at Edwards house not a hospital.
I was struggling to sit up when a cold hand pushed me back down. I didn't see this something must have changed while I was out and I'm in no condition to see what right now.
"Bella your still very weak please just lay down."
I obliged to this voice surprised that he was in my room at all.
"Edward are you ok being in here; last time it took you much longer to be around me."
"Bella I don't think you were so sick last time, where you?" he asked
"No, I was normal except for your powers not working on me."
I settled into my pillows as my head throbbed, I had never felt this bad before. I closed my eyes for a moment to try to relieve the pressure. It wasn't helping; my headache was getting worse. I didn't know what else to do, I was too lost in my own suffering to notice tears running down my face. I felt a cold hand touch my forehead, it felt so good. I took my hand to keep his in place, but almost instantly he was out of the room. My pain absorbed everything but I do not think he was gone very long because Carlisle ran in right behind him. There mouths were moving but I could not understand them. Carlisle put a thermometer in my mouth and when it beeped looked surprised; almost as surprised as I am. This is not supposed to happen I have always seen when things change, I'm not supposed to be sick.
I got sleepy suddenly, and two cold arms picked me up and put me somewhere nice and cold. It was a relief, and I was out.
------------------------------------------CPOV-----------------------------------------------------------
I have never seen anyone with such a high fever awake before. This poor girl looked to be in such pain, Edward and I filled the tub with ice before placing her in it to help bring the fever down. I wanted to take her to the hospital to properly monitor her but given her oddities I did not want to bring her any attention, especially if it became necessary to change her.
When her temperature dropped to an acceptable place we took her out of the tub and Alice came in and changed her clothing. I attached a new IV and gave her some more pain killers.
I don't think she has much time left.
---------------------------------------BPOV--------------------------------------------------------------
When I woke again I was a little groggy, so I guess I got some pain killers. I looked over toward the window and saw Edward looking out.
"Hey, how long have I been out?"
"Its two in the afternoon." he said quietly not looking at me. He must know how sick I am.
"Edward I assume you have some questions" I sighed still not sitting up I felt to weak.
"How much longer do you have?"
I closed my eyes and started seeing different images when my headache hit again.
"Bella!?"
"I don't think I should do that anymore. You need to call Carlisle before my fever comes back." I said quickly. "Edward we'll talk more when I wake again."
Carlisle came in with a syringe in hand which he put in my IV.
------------------------------------------------EPOV-----------------------------------------------------
She started to look into the future when she paled, and ordered me to get Carlisle. Carlisle seemed to have already known she would be on more pain.
"Edward when she wakes again tell her not to use her ability."
"Ok Carlisle, how long will she be out?"
"Only a couple hours."
So I sat and waited. I barely knew this girl yet I think I'm in love with her, and I think she is telling the truth about her other life.
--------------------------------------------BPOV---------------------------------------------------------
I woke again with Edward setting in a chair by my bed.
"Bella don't use you power." he ordered I looked at him confused then realized it was the source of my pain, I started to cry. Edward came over and pulled me onto his lap surround me with his cold arms.
"Shh, sh Bella not using your power is not the end of the world, you'll be just fine. Its ok I wont let anything happen to you." He crooned into my ear. When I calmed down enough to talk to him I explained.
"Edward if I do not use my powers they build up and keep me locked in place watching the show." he looked at me in horror as what I said sunk in. No matter what I do now I would be in pain.
"And Edward my time line changed earlier I'll be lucky to get sixteen let alone seventeen." I told him, I had really wanted to be his age when I was changed, I guess that's alright though.
"I need to speak to your family, and don't feel strong enough to get up, and I need to call Shirley."
Edward nodded and left the room, within seconds Alice came in and helped me readjust my pillows so that I could sit without using too much energy. The rest of the family came in with shy smiles. I smiled back,
"If I went back to…"
"Bella I told Edward to tell you not to use your power." Carlisle scolded.
"Carlisle this is something I have thought of this often enough. I do not need to use my powers. Anyway if I went back to Shirley, with me as ill as I am I would not be permitted to stay with her and would probably die in a hospital alone. If I stay human I will die, so I want to ask if any of you are willing to change me?"
I looked around the quit room and almost expected Edward and Rosalie to tell me no like last time instead the families mouth were vibrating in silent conversation. I waited for them to finish.
"Bella are you sure this is what you want?" Carlisle asked.
"I would like to wait until my time gets closer so that can be as old as possible first but if that puts to much weight on your shoulders I understand. But yes I want to be like your family."
"The longer you are alive the more painful your little fits will be and the weaker you will get."
"Like I said I'm ok with that unless you do not want to deal with it. I still cant go back to Shirley's though it would be too much for her."
"We'll wait as long as you want Bella, and we are equipped to take care of you." Carlisle told me.
"Everyone lets let Bella get some rest."
After everyone left Edward walked over twirling his cell phone in his hand.
"I guess it's a good thing I graduated when I was fourteen. Let me see the phone."
I dialed Shirley's number and she answered on the first ring.
"Oh Bells where have you been, the agency called they had a family wanting to foster you and I couldn't get a strait answer from that girl besides you couldn't come to the phone."
"Shirley I need you to tell them I ran away in hopes to make it big I'll send you a letter as proof."
"Bells are you ok?"
"Shirley I'm fine, I'm going to send someone over to get all my stuff though. I'm sorry for leaving you like this."
"Its ok as long as your ok Bells I will miss you though it was nice having you around the house."
"I love you to Shirley, and I will miss you." I said goodbye to the closest thing I have had to a mother in this life.
"Alice, Emmett" I called, and they arrived.
"Would you guys mind going to Shirley's and getting all of my things, clothes instruments everything, oh and in storage unit 1230 is my most prized possession would you mind getting that as well."
"Not at all Bella." they said and left the room.
" Your going to be luck if Shirley has any furniture left I that room." Edward chuckled then looked at me. He came over an laid down beside me adjusting my pillows so that I was now in a lying position. His arms snaked around me.
"Bella you don't have to wait to be changed age doesn't matter and waiting will only cause you more pain."
"I know Edward but I want to be as close to you in age as possible."
"Ok Bella try to get some more sleep.
I drifted off with his arms wrapped around me.
