I know I haven't updated, but in my defense I didn't get enough reviews..therefore no inspiration. Therefore no chapter..see how that works? Ok, well I did promise my best friend in the world, Katie, that I wouldn't drop the story so here's my update. Thanks to her for the idea for this chapter!
Special thanks to my friend Melissa. Thanks for reading! =]
Disclaimer- I don't own Twilight. If I did I would have a novel and wouldn't be on this site..
Chapter 10- The Healing Effect
Bella- Age 16
"Edward, are you ready to go?" I asked quietly. He looked up at me a smiled. He was sitting in the wheelchair that the hospital provided. I was smiling down at him, and he laughed.
"It depends, will you still take care of me when I get home?" he asked me still chuckling.
I smiled back at him, "Not a chance."
He burst out laughing not longer able to hide it. "I guess it worth it, but I still want you. That's my only request."
"Ok, I guess we can arrange for that." I laughed along. I missed this Edward. The playful, fun Edward. He was so happy and yet still calm. He was at inner peace. He was just always so buoyant. I felt joy flowing from his form. I knew he was happy to be out of the hospital. He would rather be working there than sitting there with nothing to do.
We got to the doors, and Edward got out of thw wheelchair. We walked to the car, and I drove us to his house. Edward was bubbling with excitement to see his family. Alice, Jasper, Emmett, Rosalie, and Esme were all waiting for us at the door. Alice didn't wait for the car to slow down before running to us. Once I stopped Edward's door flew open. Edward was yanked out and in Alice's hug within seconds.
"Share the love, Alice." Emmett screamed from the door. Then, I saw him running straight for Edward. I felt bad. I knew what it was like to be the one coming home and being attacked. Poor Edward.
Flashback-
Bella- Age 12
I was coming home from the hospital from spraining my wrist. I had to get an x-ray, but apparently I only sprained it. My dad was driving me home, and I saw all my friends waiting for me.
"Bella!" they all screamed when they saw the car. They all ran up and attacked the car. The car stopped, and I was now at the door in less than 10 seconds. That's Alice for you. Always so impatient.
I saw Emmett running towards me before I felt him hit my body. I started to tumble backwards, and he was falling with me. I put my arms out to catch my fall, but forgot my wrist was sprained. When my hand made contact with the ground I heard a sick snap, and then everything went blank.
I woke up to the bright lights and uncomfortable bed that I knew all too well. When I opened my eyes I saw Edward jump up. He walked over to me and kissed my cheek. He was such a good friend, He had stayed by my side.
"How are you feeling?" he asked me soothingly. I looked at him, and I could feel the confusion etch on my face. I knew where I was, but why was I here. How had I ended up in the hospital this time? I let a small chuckle fill the quiet room. Edward starred at me even more worried now.
"That depends on what happened? I remember Emmett crashing into me..." I trailed off. Edward smiled lightly.
"Yes, he did hit you. Then, you feel backwards. You put your hand down to catch yourself, and you broke your arm." Edward explained. I could hear the slight hint of laughter in his tone. I looked down at the cast on my hand.
I was going to kill Emmett for this. I just left here!
End Flashback-
I laughed at the memory, and I now watched it replay before my eyes. The only difference is it was Edward that Emmett was charging at. Then, I realized I should stop him before he injured Edward.
"Em-" I started to call to him, but then I saw him stop running and calmly hug Edward.
"You can attack me, but when it comes to your brother, you dont? Isn't that messed up Em?" I asked him utterly shocked that he hadn't tackled Edward.
"Sorry Bella. I learned my lesson on you. My parents grounded me for a month for that!" Emmett yelled. He probally injured Edward's ear now from screaming so loud.
I held in my angry comment and turned to grab Edward back. I grabbed his arm and pulled his face to mine. I kissed him hard, and I realized how much I missed doing so. Then, I heard catcalls from the door. I turned and groaned. They really knew how to ruin a moment.
2 months later-
"Edward! I really don't want to go to the party!" I screeched. He looked like he expected it. He had been feeling much better, and he was now back to his normal self. I looked up to see the house in front of me and groaned.
"Bella, love, it's not a big deal. It's one little party. Please, for me?" he asked me with fake sad expression. I sighed. There was just no way any girl could give in to that face. I even questioned men sometimes. He was just that attractive.
"Fine..." I made the word as long as I could so as to prolong the period of time that we would sit in the car. Before I could notice Edward was at my side of the car. He opened the door and gave me his hand.
"Why thank you kind sir." I said in a horrible British accent. Edward chuckled.
"No problem ma'am." Edward said playing along.
We walked into the house. I didn't even know whose house it was. Alice had dressed me up for tonight. It had been pure torture. Edward noticed the look on my face and gave me a sad look in return.
"Can't you play along Bella?" he asked me.
"Hey, I came in here, didn't I?" I asked with a little anger. I really hate parties. Edward knew that.
"Yes, you did. Thanks Bella. It means a lot." he said with heavy sarcasm. He what did he expect?
He turned to me again. "Would you like to go on a walk, love?" he questioned.
"Of course." He laughed.
"You would do anything to get out of here, wouldn't you?" he laughed again.
I nodded my head and we walked out the door.
This is really short, but next chapter will have some actual drama in it. I promise. Sorry.
PLEASE REVIEW!!
