DISCLAIMER: everything belongs tooooo drumroll Stephenie Meyers!!! Long live the god of Twilight!! So she can continue to grace us with her writing!! (heh heh, only a little obsession!!)

Oh, and if means anything, I'm listening to Chouwa Oto with Reflection, from the movie "Origin". Yeeaahh…… sooo…. Please enjoy!!!!!!

I blinked open my eyes, staring at my ceiling. I scowled.

Where was I?

I sat up, looking around the room, my vision swimming so badly I couldn't focus, finally I recognized my own room. I shook my head, disturbed at how long it had taken me to realize something I should have just known.

I groaned, clutching my foggy head, what was wrong with me?

I slipped my feet out from under my covers and placed them on the floor, trying to find stability in the hard surface.

I stood, and it was like the floor pitched and churned beneath me, my head spun, and I fell back onto the bed.

The room still danced around me, so I closed my eyes. I don't remember lying down again, but I must have because I don't remember anything after that for a long time.

When I came to again, I didn't feel as dizzy as before, in fact, I didn't even remember the before. The last thing I remembered was…

I gasped, and sat up, and my head swam slightly, but I ignored it and flung my covers to the side. "Edward!" I screamed, trying to stand and falling to my knees when my legs buckled underneath me.

I dragged myself forward to the door, trying to muster up the strength to stand, but in the meantime crawling.

I wretched the door open and fell out into the hall. I could hear movements from Charlie's room, I had probably woken him up when I screamed.

He came out onto the landing to find me panting on the ground, already past the point where I could move.

"Bella…" he shook his head disapprovingly, "No, sweetie, you're sick, you need to stay in bed."

I somehow managed to drag myself to a sitting position, leaning against the wall, I gasped, "where's… Edward…?"

Charlie looked confused, "What? Bella, what are you talking about? Edward… remember? He left… a long time ago…" he said it gently, remembering the way Edward had been a no-no topic for months.

I shook my head now, "No, no, he came back… he came back, I saw him. I…" my eyes widened as I remembered what I had done, "He saved my life, again. I almost…" I trailed off, not wanting to tell Charlie what I had done, "But, then I woke up and he was there, and I spoke to him. Saw him, he told me he loved me. He said he was sorry…" my voice was getting weaker and weaker each passing word.

Charlie looked worriedly at me, "You've been delirious with a fever for several days now. Bella, Edward never came back… I'm sorry… but… you must have dreamt it."

I looked at him blankly, not comprehending. He had been right there, I had touched his skin, felt his lips, heard his voice… how could I ever dream that?

I scrutinized Charlie for lies; it was the only explanation, so he must be lying. Edward had said he was sorry, that everything he had said… before… was a lie, he had been telling me the truth then right? He wouldn't leave me again, would he?

I shook my head slowly, my breath starting to come quicker, my lips pressing together. I leaned away from Charlie, and his lies. I crawled backward and long the wall, and Charlie just stood there in his doorway, watching me.

"No…" I whispered, my voice shaking.

Charlie finally moved, reaching his hand forward to me. "Bella, come, you're sick. Come back to bed."

I flinched away from his hand, peering him strait in the eye.

"No!" I said louder. I brought my knees up to my chest, curling up in the corner of the hall, as far as I could go. "No! You're lying!" I was screaming now.

There. I saw it, just the tiniest flicker of fear in his eyes.

Fear of me finding out he was lying.

I dragged myself to my feet, and started crawling down the stairs. Charlie stared at me for a moment, amazed I was pushing it that far, then followed after me.

"Bella!" he shouted, "stop! He's gone!!"

"No!" I screamed, not pausing in my shaky movements down the stairs. "It's not true! He came back, I know he did!"

I hit the floor at the bottom and pulled myself to my feet. Stumbling I pulled myself along the wall to the door. Charlie was right behind me, and I tried to go faster.

I got to the door and twisted the handle open.

I stepped out, and tripped on the doorstep. I fell to the ground, but pushed myself up quickly and dragged myself further outside.

I looked franticly around the street, at all the little houses, at the grass in the lawn, the trees the lined the road, the mountains on the horizon…

Where was he?

"Edward!" I screamed, circling the yard slowly, "Edward!!!!!" There was a gust of wind, and I was so weak it knocked me over. I fell to the side, and laid there in the grass, sobbing.

Charlie came up to where I lay. He put his hand on my shoulder, but I flinched from his touch.

I was shaking terribly, flinging my head from side to side in denial.

"No…" I sobbed, "No, he just… he couldn't leave me again… he just wouldn't…"

I looked up at Charlie through my thick curtain of hair covering my face, he didn't see me looking at him.

He had a small smirk on his lips.
