Esme POV
"Esme get down now!" Carlisle order.
"Carlisle!" I said. "I'm fine!"
"You could fall, just please come down Essie bee!" He beg.
"Fine." I mumbled.
He smiled as I started to climb down the tree. Today me and Carlisle decided to go on a walk. We are now 13 and learn so much. Like how are family are vampires kept for Nessie who's half human and half vampire. Rosalie told me they adopted me and Carlisle when we were two. They wanted to expand the family. So now we are here. I'm way up in a tree out in the forest and Carlisle being his usual self is worried and beg me to come down.
I started to climb down. I thought about my family. I loved them all even if there vampires. That just makes them more special. My life been good so far. But I feel alone. Of coarse I have Rose, Alice, Emmett, Renesme, Bella, Edward, Jasper, Jacob sometimes, and Carlisle always there. I can't help but want to have more. I want to be love by someone. I want to hold hands and hear the words, "I love you." Carlisle says I'm a hopeless romantic. I hate to say that I agree.
I was almost down when I heard a huge SNAP!
And before I knew it, I had fallen off the tree and hit the ground with a big thud. There was a pain in my right leg. Every time I moved it I scream. I started to cry.
"Es!" I hear Carlisle shout.
He ran over to me and held me.
"Carlisle my leg." I cried.
"Sh." He said. "ALICE!"
In minutes Alice and the others were there.
"Esme Anne Cullen what happen!" She screech.
"I-I fell out of the tree and I-I-I can't feel my leg." I stuttered.
"It's going to be ok Esme." Bella said.
Carlisle pick me up and I was in his arms. Emmett offered to carry me but Carlisle told him no. To be honest I didn't mind. I laid my head on his chest. I sob a little and once in a while let a little scream from the pain in my leg.
I was hurried to Edward Volvo and then drove to the hospital. What a long day I thought to myself.
Carlisle POV
I was worried. We were at the hospital in the waiting room . I pace and flinch when Esme would cry out in pain. Why wouldn't the doctor just let me in? I just want to hold her and take the pain away!
"Dude calm down!" Emmett told me. "She not going to die!"
"Why did they let Rose, Alice, and Bella in, but not me!" I ask.
"Esme is going to be fine." Edward insured me. But how can he be so sure!
After what seem like hours but really was just around 20 minutes, the doctor left the room and so did the girls.
"Is she ok?" I ask. "She not in pain is she? She going to be ok, right? What did the doctor say? WHEN CAN I SEE HER!"
"Geeze Carlisle calm down." Alice put her hands on my shoulder.
"She resting right now but you can go see her." Bella inform me.
I nodded and walk into her room. The others stayed behind. I walk in to find Esme reading one of those romance books that I'm sure Rosalie got her. I smiled. Her leg was wrap in a purple cast, my heart ache seeing it, but other then that she look fine.
"Well isn't it my hopeless romantic." I teased.
"Carlisle!" Esme open her arms. "Finally I thought you wouldn't come."
"Why wouldn't I?" I ask.
"Because I'm the idiot who fell out of a tree, broke her leg, and now is in the hospital." Esme said.
I chuckle and gave her hug. Then I sat down in a chair next to her and gently took her hand in mine.
"Your not a idiot Esme." I told her. "Your sweet, smart, intelligent, and beautiful."
"Ok Mr. I know how to almost make a girl cry by my words." She rolled her eyes.
"Almost?" I laugh.
"Carlisle!" Esme playfully hit me.
I acted hurt even know it felt like a pillow just hit me.
"Carlie I'm cold!" Esme whine. "Will you please hold me?"
"Essie we aren't in first grade anymore, remember?"
"Yes, I'm well aware of that." Esme spoke. "But I'm cold and in the hospital with a very heavy cast on my leg. So hop on buddie."
She patted the seat next to her. I sighed and got up. I knew I wouldn't win this battle. Getting in bed, Esme cuddle up against me. I didn't mind. I held her in my arms . It felt so right.
"Essie?" I ask.
"Yeah?" She replied.
"I-I..." I what? I wanted to tell her how I felt. How much I loved her and loved being with her. How she made my heart skip a beat. And I wanted to go out. Be a couple. But does she feel the same way?
"You what Carlisle?" Esme big green eyes stared at me.
"F-Forever, right?" I ask.
"And ever and ever and ever." She said. We both laughed.
Five days later...
Rosalie POV
After Esme injuries, she was discharge from the hospital five days later. Carlisle happily wheeled her out. The doctor order Esme to stay in bed for the rest of the week before she uses her crutches.
Esme been home for about three days now. And Carlisle has been doing everything for her. He makes her breakfast, lunch, and dinner. He helps her get comfortable and rubs her back when it aches. He also helps her get out of bed, brush her hair, do her homework, keeps her warm when she cold, and sleeps on the floor right by her bed so he there when she needs him. All me and the girls have to do is help her to the bathroom, shower, and get it her dress. My adoptive father is just so sweet!
Esme POV
"Carlie I don't think I can do this." I cried.
"Come Es!" He told me. "I got you if you fall."
I took a deep breath. It's been the rest of the week now and I'm able to use my crutches. Here in three days I'm suppose to start school again.
"Esme it's ok. If your tired we'll stop." Carlisle said.
It was me and Carlisle, we were outside trying to practice. The others went hunting and wouldn't be back for a while. Renesme was at a friend house and Jacob went down to see Billy. I hated crutches. It hurt my under arm and my cast was too heavy. Every time I tried to walk with them I just fall or slip.
"Essie?" Carlisle ask.
"Hm?" I snap out of my thoughts.
"Let's go inside and I'll make you lunch. You need to rest, we can try again later."
"No!" I stop him. I didn't want to be a chicken. "I can do it!"
"One more time." He said.
I nodded my head. I did everything the doctor taught me to do and took a step. I didn't fall! I took another and another!
"Es look your doing it!" Carlisle cheered.
I laugh and went over to him. I almost slip on a stick when Carlisle caught me by my waist. I look up and our eyes meant. I blush and then look down. Carlisle eyes were beautiful. But I didn't want to be caught looking at them.
"Let's go." He spoke.
I nodded. I was speechless!
He pick me up and I drop my crutches.
"Carlisle my crutches!" I giggled.
"I'll get them when we get inside." He said.
I laugh and let him carry me in. Just like what a prince would do for his princess.
