Idiots
APOV (Alice's Point of View)
That was such an idiotic move that Edward had pulled not long ago. Well I was glad that he had risked our secret just to save Bella but that was too risky. I hated the fact that I couldn't see her future when Samson and Glenville were in the way. If I could have seen this coming when Bella had her last period with someone that wasn't Aurora then I would be able to prevent this from happening. God I was an idiot as well! I was debating to myself to whether rush forward and save Bella or just stand where I was. Of course Edward had read my mind so he acted on the first option. Edward was intrigued by Bella because he couldn't read her mind. He also knew that I was interested and curious about Bella because she didn't shy away from any of us Cullen. That wasn't it though when I had hid half of the reason why I wanted to get close to Bella. I wanted to make her mine. There was something about her that pulled me in, and it wasn't her intoxicating sweet blood.
"Edward, what the hell were you thinking back then? People would have seen you!" Rosalie was yelling at him ever since we had stepped into the house. Esme was there, trying to calm Rosalie down but to no avail. Rosalie was upset that Edward would risk our secret like that. She was upset because she didn't want to get up and move around again.
"She would have died!" Edward reasoned, his voice pleading Rosalie to understand the motive to his action but Rosalie wouldn't have any of it.
"She's a goddamn human! Humans are supposed to die! They're not like us and they do not need saving when it is their time they have to leave the surface!" Rosalie yelled, her arms flailing around wildly as she paced back and forth on our lounge.
I was sitting next to Jasper as he tried his best to calm our sister down. I sighed and rested my head on his shoulder as I watched Edward and Rosalie had a go at each other, verbally. This was going to go on and on until tomorrow. I sighed and shook my head at them just when the home phone started to ring. Esme quickly went to pick it up after I told her that it was Carlisle. I know why he called, and I would have to convince him to let me go to the hospital as well.
"That was Carlisle, he wanted you to drop by the hospital Edward." Esme said softly. Edward nodded and was eager to go just so he could get out of the house and away from Rosalie's wrath. Unfortunately for him Rosalie tagged along, and I've persuaded Rose to let me tag along as well. Rosalie's wrath could become of an advantage if I knew how to use it wisely.
We arrived at the hospital shortly and entered the facility. We went up to where Carlisle's office was but was told that he was seeing a patient. I could see who it was, and thanked to his mind reading ability Edward could see who it was too. The both of us quickly went over to where the patients were with Rosalie hot on our heels. I didn't know what she was thinking and I couldn't see her future, so she hadn't decided to do anything, or she was hiding it from me. Edward was growling lowly though so I knew that Rosalie was planning to do something and was hiding it from me.

BPOV (Bella's Point of View)
He was so fast. I knew that he was standing across the lot that was too far for him to have come and rescue me in just a blink of an eye. I had to question him about this because I wanted the truth of who he was. He had left me sitting there after saving me in confusion. I had tried my best to figure who it was but I couldn't. There was one thing that I had figured out though; Edward wasn't human. Would that count for the rest of his family as well? They did share the same traits. While I was pondering about this Charlie walked in. I sighed inwardly and turned to face him. He was panicking and I perfectly understood why. Not many people would walk the earth after nearly being crushed by a huge freaking van.
"Bella, are you okay?" He asked worriedly. His face spoke full volume of it though.
"Yeah Dad, I'm fine. I'm still functioning, see?" I stretched my arms out and started moving them up and down to prove my point. He shook his head lightly at my reaction to the whole near-death experience before sitting down.
"Well the nurses said that there's nothing wrong with you so they discharged you early."
Joy! No seriously, I was literally jumping up and down inside from the news. I didn't really want to be in a hospital. It was never comfortable. "Awesome. Can I go now?"
"Not quite." A gently, melodic voice spoke up that caused me to whip my head around so fast that I felt a bit dizzy.
The doctor was very handsome; breathtakingly handsome. I never thought that doctors would be this handsome, not to say he looked really young as well. His blonde hair was combed back, revealing his gorgeous pale face. His golden orbs…Wait, golden orbs? The only people that I know that had golden eyes color were the Cullens. This possibly be their father, or their oldest brother. Either way he was smoking hot.
"Hello Isabella," he began and I cringed inwardly at my full name being used.
"Just Bella, please."
He chuckled and nodded. "Ok, Bella. My name is Carlisle Cullen and I wanted to check on you before I let you go." I nodded as he pulled out a small flash light. "I'll just check to see if you'd have any effect from the crash or not, ok?"
I nodded again as he began to check my eyes to see if there were any effect at all. To be honest I was fine. I just needed to make sure not to do things so fast like whipping my head around like before. I honestly didn't want to faint in the middle of the hospital because I was being my clumsy self.
"You boy, Edward, saved my daughter didn't he?" Charlie suddenly asked.
Carlisle only took one glance at Charlie before answering. "Yes, he did."
"Tell him that I send my thanks. I owe him, a lot."
Just at that moment three people showed up; three people that I know and would possibly wanted answers to all these silly questions popping in my head. I had no idea why they would be in here in the first place. It wasn't like this was the first time they'd see someone almost die.
"You don't owe me nothing, sir. Saving Bella was absolutely nothing." Edward said in his almost sickening gentleman manner. Alice was beside him, eyeing me up and down, no doubt that she was checking if I was okay. Rosalie was standing next her glowing. She didn't need to be here if she didn't want to be here.
"How are you Bella?" Edward asked, successfully snapping me away from Alice just so I could give him my attention.
"I'm fine, thank you." I responded lowly, my cheeks suddenly started to go red. Damn this blush.
"That's good to hear." He spoke with a smirk.
Suddenly I remembered what I wanted to ask him. So I stood up after Carlisle had examined me and looked at him sternly. He looked back at me just as sternly before pulling his head back to look like he was in control. "Can I talk to you, alone?"
"Ok." He responded quickly and started walking off towards the door. I followed him but was stopped by a small hand grasping at my arm. I turned to look down at a pair of worried golden eyes.
"Alice?" I asked worriedly. She let my arm go with a sigh.
"I was just worried about you. I'm glad that you're okay." She spoke softly and I smiled down at her.
"Thank you."
She looked up, beaming at me which made my smile widened. "No need to thank me. Anyway, Edward is waiting so you can go talk to him. Don't keep him waiting." She winked at me and of course, I blushed again.
"Ok…" I turned and walked out of the room. I found Edward leaning against the wall at the far corner with his arms folded. I took a big breath before walking over to him. He looked up at the sound of my footsteps and turned to look at me expectantly. "I have a question."
"Go on." He urged but his tone wasn't friendly.
I gulped a little before continuing. "How did you get over to where I was standing so fast?"
He chuckled darkly. "What are you talking about, Bella? I was standing right next to you."
That was a lie, I know, because he was trying really hard to work his charm to make me believe that he was telling the truth. I frowned at him and folded my arms. "No, Edward, you were across from me, too far for anyone to just appear by my side in just a blink of an eye."
His face stiffen, his jaws hardened and I could see that his face was getting just a tad paler; not to mention that his eyes were getting darker as well. "I don't know what you're talking about Bella."
"Stop lying to me, Edward. I want the truth." I demanded, my eyes leveling his but he refused to give in.
He straightened his posture that made him hovering over me. He was getting too intimidating and if I wasn't this stubborn, I would be trembling with fear. Just then Alice showed up, and from the corner of my eyes I could see that she was glaring at her brother.
"What's going on?" She asked. Edward huffed, preparing to leave.
"Nothing." He responded before storming off.
She raised an eyebrow at his departure before turning her eyes on me. The eyes that were giving a cold stare that she was giving to Edward softened as soon as they set upon me. "He didn't say anything to upset you, did he?" She asked in concern, and my heart literally leapt with joy. I didn't know why but it looked like that she was the only one that could make my heart beat faster and slower at the same time.
"No, he didn't. I just wanted to know why he was there at my side so fast, it's all."
She looked sad for a moment before sighing. "I'm sorry, Bella. But I promise you that you'd know the answer to that soon." She responded then turned to leave.
I was left standing there looking confused as ever. She knew about this as well, apparently, and she had promised that I would find the answer to this soon. The problem was; I wanted the answer right now. I didn't want to wait, and waiting would mean I would definitely think about the situation even more. Right now my mind was all about how Edward could get to me so fast, and why I was feeling like my life had been completed whenever Alice was near. Edward's action confused me, but my feelings for Alice confused me more. Now as I thought about it, I wanted both of these questions answer. I wanted the question for Edward to be answered first, however. I needed to know what he was. I wanted to know why he would act like he hated me, then the next liked me by rescuing me. God, this was all so confusing!
