We arrived at the hospital in a flash. It helped that I was driving at 200 mph. I swerved into a random spot close to the hospital. We all ran as fast as we could at human speed into the hospital. The nurses looked at us with wide eyes.
"We need a stretcher and several doctors right away!" Carlisle yelled at the nurses. One of them immediately picked up the phone while another got a stretcher. I laid Bella on the stretcher and watched as Carlisle wheeled her away.
"Excuse me," A nurse said, comming up behind me. "But we need to fill out some paperwork. Come with me please." She said as she grabbed a clip board, pen, and led me to a small waiting room.
"OK, so how do you know the patient?"
"I am her fiance. Her name is Isabella Marie Swan and she's eighteen years old."
"OK thank you. And you're name is?"
"Edward Cullen."
"Oh! Are you Dr. Cullen's son?" She asked, her eyes sparkling. I couldn't stop her thoughts from pouring into my head.
"Wow. Dr. Cullen's son! If Edward likes me, maybe I'll have a better chance with the doctor. Who cares if he has a wife?"
I couldn't stop myself. I growled at her.
"Oh um, so my name is Stephanie. If there is anything you need, just let me know OK?"
I nodded my head, and she smiled. Then she turned her back and left. After about a minute of waiting, my siblings joined me.
"I'm so sorry Edward," Alice said hugging me. "It's all my fault. I'm so sorry!" She was now crying broken, tearless sobs.
I eyed Jasper who sent a wave of calm around the room.
"Alice, it's OK. Nothing that happened was your fault. It was the stupid person driving the semi who got Bella in this mess. Nothing was your fault."
"Yeah, actually it was," Rose said, coming through the doorway. "If you hadn't called Bella and distracted her, nothing would have happened."
This caused Alice to break down yet again.
"Thanks Rose." I said sarcastically, scowling at her. She just had to go and make this five times more difficult then it had to be.
"S-S-See? It is my fault. And now Bella's gonna die and it's all my fault and everyone is going to be so upset, and I'M A MURDERER!" She screamed, her face twisted in pain.
"No Alice. Calm down. Bella will be fine, and she's not going to die, and nothing was you're fault. And you certainly didn't murder Bella."
"YES I DID!" Alice screamed, throwing her arms up into the air, hitting Emmett.
"Ow." Emmett said, rubbing his face. "For a little pixie you sure hit hard."
Well of course that got Rosalie all worked up.
"Alice! Why the heck did you hurt my husband?" She shouted at her. Alice was still sobbing.
"Rosalie. Not now." I told her, my arm still around Alice.
"No! She hurt my Emmett, and Bella, and now she should leave!" Rose shouted. Emmett and Jasper held her back.
"FINE!" Alice shouted. She stomped out of the waiting room.
"Alice! Wait!" I called after her, but she just continued storming her way through the reception area and to my silver volvo. She was already at the car when she realized that she didn't have the keys. She stomped back inside.
"Edward, may I please have your keys?" She asked polietly, her voice shaking a little bit.
"No."
"Edward, give me the dang keys!" She shouted at me, causing many heads to turn our way.
"No." I said again, staying calm.
"EDWARD YOU BETTER GIVE ME THE KEYS OR ILL KILL YOUR CAR!" She screamed at me while stomping her feet. Now half of the people in the hall looked shocked, and the other half looked afraid.
"Alice, please listen to me. Forget about Rose. We all want you here. And I know that when Bella wakes up and can't find you, she'll be hurt."
"I don't care. Gimme the keys, and I'll be back in a bit."
I sighed in defeat and handed her the keys.
"Where are you going to go?" I asked her as she retreated towards the sliding doors.
"Shopping." She said, finally exiting the hospital. I turned around to find Rosalie.
"Good riddance." She scoffed. It took all of my will power not to knock my sister down right there.
"Rose, that was uncalled for. You and I both know it. Nothing that happened was Alice's fault, and I want you to call and apologize."
"No." She said lazily, turning around and walking into the small room where Emmett and Jasper were playing cards.
"Emmett, tell your wife that she is a poor excuse for a vampire." I said with all the venom I could muster. Rosalie just turned and growled at me.
"Umm, I don't think she'd take it too well if I told her that. Why don't you?" This caused Jasper to laugh, his cards shaking uncontrollably in his hand.
"Emmett, tell Edward that he is a stupid, egotistic, illogical, moronic, loser who has nothing else better to do than look after some pathetic human girl."
That was all it took. I pounced at Rose and she gracefully stepped out of the way. Then she lunged at me, and I dodged. Jasper and Emmett came to us in a matter of seconds, Emmett pulling Rose back, and Jasper pulling me back while letting out a wave of calm.
"You're lucky that they're here." She spat at me.
"Oh why? Because you would have killed me? Fat chance." I spat back. Now we were both ready to kill each other. Emmett and Jasper were having a harder and harder time pulling us back. That was when Carlisle decided to come into the room.
"Good afternoon children." He said, as if the scene before him was completly normal. "Where is Alice?" He wondered, looking up from his clipboard for a mere second.
"Your beast of a daughter chased her out of the hospital." I told him, inching closer and closer to Rose.
"What? Rosalie, is that true?"
"Technically yes. But all I said was that the car crash was her fault, and after she'd hit Emmett I thought she caused enough trouble so I told her to beat it." Rose said calmly, trying to wiggle out of Emmett's iron grasp.
"Rosalie Cullen, I'm very ashamed of you," Carlisle said, walking in between both of us. "You never should have said those things to Alice. I want you to apologize and then Alice will get to choose your punishment." I couldn't help but laugh.
"And Edward. Why were you trying to fight your sister? And calling her names?" He asked, his eyes staring into mine.
"I was trying to defend Alice." I replied, finally calming down.
"That was kind of you Edward, but please don't try to kill your other sister OK?"
I nodded in agreement. Carlisle smiled at Jasper, signalling it was OK to release me. Rosalie whined while still in Emmett's grasp.
"What?! That is so not fair Carlisle!" She whined at him. "Lemme go Emmett!" She shouted.
"Rosalie I'm afraid that if you cannot control yourself I'll have to ask you to leave the hospital. Edward, come with me please."
I nodded and followed him out into the hall. We walked towards room 111. I could see Bella's small fragile body laying in the large, metal hospital bed. She was hooked up to many monitors. A heart monitor, a transfusion machine, a respiratory machine that was giving oxygen was attached to a tube and taped across her face. Just like after James attacked her.
"Edward, I'm sorry, but I don't think that Bella will live through this." He said, placing a hand on my back.
I was too in shock to feel anything. I just left to sit beside Bella's bed, gently taking her hand and rubbing circles into the back of it. I heard someone come inside.
"Hello?" I asked, to lazy to turn around. But by hearing the person's thoughts, I knew it was Alice.
"Hi Edward." She said sadly, taking in Bella's current condition. "Carlisle told me everything." She sat down beside me and gave me a hug. That's when I decided to cry. Of course, I couldn't really cry so it just came out as sobbing, but that was all I could do. Alice rubbed my back and quietly sobbed as well. After about a minute Alice spoke again.
"Edward, I know how much this hurts you, but why don't you just change her?" Alice asked. I immediately pushed her away.
"Alice," I hissed at her. "How could you say such a thing?" I asked, standing up. She stood up as well.
"Actually," Carlisle said, coming into the room. "I agree with Alice. Edward, I'm only going to keep her on life support for a week, so by then you must make a decision. I believe that you should change her. No one could live without her Edward." He said standing behind me.
I turned back around to face Bella. Who could have known how much pain it would cause everyone. It hurt Alice, Emmett, Jasper, Carlisle, Esme, Rose, and I beyond belief. Not to mention Bella, who was here, in the hospital, in pain.
The majority of my family now came into the room. The only person not here was Esme. She was too shocked and sad to come down to the hospital. If Bella was going to die, she wanted to remember her when she was happy. Esme didn't want her last memory of Bella to be in the hospital the day before Christmas. Jasper patted me on the back, Rose gave me a hug, Emmett put an arm around my shoulder and Alice cried into my chest.
Now I had a decision to make. One that would affect my entire family. I could change Bella, and live with her forever. Certainly the best option for me and my family members, but we had to think about Bella first. Or, I could let her die peacefully and go to heaven, where she belongs. I looked at the faces of my family members. They were all sad. And I had no idea what to do.
OK, so I hope you liked that chapter! Yay! 2 chapters in one day, aren't you special? Please review if you have time! If you don't... I could always kill Bella... :) MUHAHAHA. who says bribery isn't awesome?!
