Chapter 7
I raced into the meadow the next day and sat by the creak. I loved the sunlight. It was so warm. I didn't care about anything at the moment. I wasn't thinking about anything. I just sat there for hours, I could sit here for eternity. I would have to… if it hadn't happened…..
I sat there at the creak when I heard voices in my head. One voice said, she is so stupid for not coming back, good thing he came. I become worried, but ignored it.
Then another voice said, Its too late now. A laugh.
Then a scream of pain. WHY ARE MY VAINS burning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He didn't say it out loud.
I was confused, then suddenly I remembered who's "voice" that was! "NO!" I whispered. I raced out of the meadow as fast as I could, it had taken me 10 minutes to run here but I made it out in less than one. NO, NO, NO, NO, NO! This couldn't be happening. I had to stop this, how? Somehow! I don't care how! Anything!
I made it to the house in a minute and a half. I raced inside, panick written all over my face. This couldn't be happening!
Emmett and Rosalie were smiling down at Edward who was on the couch yelling in pain.
Carlisle, Alice, Esme, Emmett, and Rosalie were calm. Jasper was standing there, looking at him, and giving me a sad, sorry look. Tears fell down my cheeks. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" I screamed in horror.
Edward suddenly shut his mouth and looked at me. 'Isabel.' He mouthed and then passed out. Suddenly, I was yelling in rage, "You stupid, no good-!"
Rosalie cut me off, "Save it, your too late, anyway."
"How could you do this to him?! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE SENTENCED HIM TO HELL!?"
Emmett laughed, "I understand nothing." He smart mouthed.
"Obviously!" I growled.
I picked Edward up and raced to my room and put him on the bed, then ran back downstairs. "What is his father going to say?!" I growled at them, "Did you ever think of that?"
They shrugged, "We thought, we would just leave."
"UGH!" I raced back upstairs and fell to my knees beside the bed, crying. I felt sick, he felt the pain, even if he was passed out. He was thinking about this, WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME? IS ISABEL ALRIGHT? He thought. I wasn't though
I thought for a moment, there had to be some way out of it. Nothing came to mind. I couldn't consontrate, I was just sad.
I heard him wake up, "Isabella." He said weakly.
I looked up, "I'm so sorry." I whispered and broke into another sob, throwing my head back down. Everything was going wrong, why would they do this to me? To him?
"Its… not…. Your fault." He said, he was in so much pain.
"It is, I should have been there I should have-"
He put a finger on my lips, "You couldn't have done anything."
"I COULD HAVE." I insisted, "I am the fastest I could have had you out of there in time. I could have-"
"You couldn't have." He whispered.
What killed me the most, we both knew it was true. "Please don't cry." He mummered.
I stared at him for a moment. "What can I do? This cant happen, it just cant." It turned into broken sobs.
Edward put his hand on my head and said, "What's going on?" He really was just focused on why I am so sad and he cant understand the pain.
I felt awful, "You don't know? Your being changed into… one of us." I felt awful, then I burst out sobbing again, "I didn't want this to happen."
"You mean… You had to… go through this… to become… a vampire?" He asked, he was in so much pain he could barely speak.
I didn't answer, "Don't worry, hon, it wont take long." I tried to comfort him. "The pain will stop soon… It just has too, I cant believe you have to go through this."
"You didn't answer… the question." He said, trying to make it firmly.
"I did….but I was sick when they did that to me. It was to save me from dieing. I was dieing of cancer, and you have no reason to have to do this." I mummered.
He moved his hand from the top of my head to under my chin, lifting my face up as if to see me clearly, "How old are you? Really, I mean. I know your not 16."
I looked away. "You still don't know you can tell me anything?" Edward asked, "After all of this?"
I looked back at him and too a deep breath, letting the round of torture pass out of my brain, "I'm 25." I was ready for him to feel sick now, but he just kept calm.
"Thanks for telling me." He mummered and kissed the top of my head. "I love you." he mummered.
"I love you to."
When it was finally over, Carlisle said, "I'm sorry Bella, it just had to be done, but its almost over."
I shook my head back and forth machanicly, I heard his heart take off like helicopter blades. He knew it was almost over. All he was thinking about was me. I couldn't believe it. Everything is fine now, I can be with Bella, she doesn't ever have to worry about this. He thought when his heart stopped. I stood right over him and when he opened his eyes he looked up and smiled at me.
Even more beautiful now I can really see you, He thought.
I smiled. His eyes were red, but his skin had turned real white, I miss those handsome green eyes, but he was so PERFECT now. I couldn't believe my eyes. He reached up and caressed my cheek. He sat up slowly and saw Carlisle and the other standing on the other wall.
He looked at them for a moment, he was mad at everyone, not Jasper though. Jasper never did anything to him. I just smiled at Edward and kissed him quietly. But then it turned into a different kind of kiss, suddenly his hot breath was in my mouth, and I didn't care.
When we were done kissing he smiled at me, "No more pain?" He asked. I had told him about the burn only a few days ago.
I smiled, "Nothing but happieness."
Everyone stared at him. Carlisle said, "Isabel, maybe you should take him hunting, I am sure his throat is burning right now." Accually, he hadn't thought of it till then.
I froze. I never wanted him to see me hunt, not EVER. "You all right?" Edward asked.
I just shook my head back and forth, to end my trance. "Um, Carlisle, I don't think that is the best idea."
