Previously on Two Is Better Than One

I turned just in time to see a blue van coming straight in my direction, sliding on the ice.

I felt pressure before I felt pain. The van slammed me down onto the pavement and I felt my head crack onto the pavement,

I was vaguely aware of a sticky liquid oozing into my hair.

And just as I let my mind drift off into nothingness I heard a tormented cry.

"No! BELLA!"

His voice sounded so musical and...so...familiar...

And then all I knew was blackness.

Chapter 4: She's Too Good For You

A/nI was originally going to anme it Rape whistle XD You'll see why

Edward's POV

As the sirens of the ambulance honked loudly, I stared intently at Bella who was crumpled up on the operating table in the back of the ambulance. She was my only focus. Even as the doctors shouted to each other loudly, I could only hear a few words like 'blood loss' or 'concussion' or 'several broken ribs', But I refused to comprehend them. It was too painful. The last 30 minutes were too painful…

Flashback

I was tapping my foot anxiously in my seat. It was last period and I was going to see Bella after school. I had lied to her about wanting to talk about the project, I just wanted to make sure she made it home safely . Alice's bad 'feeling' about Bella had made me nervous all day. Alice assured me that she would make sure nothing happened to Bella during Spanish. Still I wasn't so sure… The bell rang startling me out of my worried thoughts. I collected my books and walked out of the classroom. As I ran through the doorway I almost slammed straight into Mr. Banner. He raised his eyebrows at me.

"Leaving so soon Cullen? Did you already forget about your 15 minute detention?" I groaned but still followed him back to his classroom. Once we got there I took a seat in one of the very back desks. I glanced around the empty classroom. But that's what was wrong. Banner was know for being a harass. He had a reputation for having at least 10 kids in his room for detention every day.

"Where's everyone else?" I asked. He smiled grimly at me. "I let them go."

"What?!" I asked. He gave a rueful chuckle ,

"Yes, they were just as surprised as you. I heard one of them say 'Holyfuckingshit dude! We better start running, the apocalypse is coming! Mr. Banner was actually…nice!!!' -as he was leaving my classroom." He laughed again before shaking his head. I chuckled.

"Okay, that's a nice story and all, but that doesn't explain why they got to go and I'm still here." I said annoyed.

"I let them go because I had to get you." He said staring at me. I looked at him strangely.

"…Erm. I would like to remind you Mr. Banner that you would go to jail for that and just to warn you, I bite, I scratch, and I have a rape whistle in my pocket." I said carefully. Mr. Banner was cracking up for a solid 10 minutes before he finally composed himself. He wiped away the tears that had formed around his eyes.

"Oh, your funny Cullen. I meant get you alone. Don't worry I'm not going to molest you," He rolled his eyes. "But I would like to take a few minutes of your time to talk to you about your partner… Bella Swan?" Her name brought back the nervousness that I had momentarily forgotten. I silently wondered if she was still waiting for me…

"Cullen!" I shook my head, trying to clear it. He rolled his eyes for the umpteenth time today. "I asked if you had Bella Swan for your English partner as well?"

"Yep." I paused, thinking. "She's actually pretty nice, and smart, kinda cute too…" I babbled. Mr. Banner smirked.

"Well, you've obviously got the hots for her." I tried to argue, but he cut me off. "Don't deny it, you just called her cute after all." "Did I say that out loud?" I blushed. He sighed . "Yes you did, but I'm going to need you to stay away from her."

"Why?!" I almost yelled. Then I tried to think of excuses. "We're doing a project in English, we have to spend time together no matter what." He looked thoughtful."That's true, but other than that you shouldn't speak to her."

"Why?" I repeated."Because she's too good for you." He spoke clearly. " You'll only cause her trouble. She's going off to a good college, she's going to find a good husband, and have a good family. And an overall good life. And I'm afraid you might rub off on her and jeopardize all she's worked for." I nodded numbly, feeling shock as he tried to let that all sink in. He was right… She was much, much too good for me. In fact, I'm not even sure why she hasn't decided to hate me yet. I felt a hand on my shoulder and looked up to see Mr. Banner smiling sadly at me."It's for the best, Edward." I nodded again. "You may go now." He said quietly. I said nothing as I walked out of the classroom. Halfway down the hall I heard a sharp, pitchy voice call my name.

"Hello, Lauren." Thank God I really do have that rape whistle in my pocket.

I turned around to find Lauren trying to stand casually against the hallway, but it looked more like she hadn't eaten in a week and needed the wall to even stand up. That was more likely, sadly.

"What do you want?" I asked when she didn't say anything

"Banner was lying right?" She asked, her frost blue eyes narrowed.

"About what?" I asked. I started to bounce my foot impatiently. Bella was still waiting out in the parking lot.

"About you liking that Swan girl." She said twirling a platinum blonde tendril in her finger.

"I-I" As I stumbled for words she only walked closer to me until we were face to face.

"What do you think of her?" She asked coldly.

"She- She is…" I couldn't finish. I heard a loud SCREECH coming from the parking lot. Screech? Like tire wheels… In the parking lot…Bella's in the parking lot!!!

I sprinted toward the opening of the hallway that entered the side of the parking lot.

"BELLA!" I shouted as I rounded the corner. I made it just in time…

To see her get slammed to the ground by a large blue van. A shout of horror rose to my throat before I could stop it."No! BELLA!!"

I ran through the crow of people that had formed around her. They all had their cell phones out calling for help. I glanced over her. She was unconscious, blood was leaking from her head. I couldn't see where, her hair was blocking. Her breathing seemed hard, and troubled, so there was something wrong with either her lungs or her ribs. Her face was bruised and had cuts from the glass that rained down from the windows. She was alive… but barely. I almost cried in relief when the ambulance sirens could be heard down the street. Two ambulances entered the parking lot. One set of paramedics extracted the driver from the car-who I recognized as Tyler Crowly, one of Em's friends from football. The paramedics asked questions and I answered them as well as I could in my robot-like state. I couldn't seem to comprehend anything… like the fact that Bella was hanging onto life by a thread, or that I wasn't supposed to get into the ambulance with her. Finally they gave up trying to move me, and let me sit on one of the benches, holding her hand, while they worked on her. I tried whispering to her that everything was okay. But I stopped realizing that everything was not okay. And for some reason Mr. Banner's earlier words decided to creep into my mind

You'll only cause her trouble… She's too good for you

So true.

She's going off to a good college, she's going to find a good husband, and have a good family. And an overall good life.

God, I hope so…
