Chapter nine- The truth will set you free or kill you
A final comfort that is small, but not cold: The heart is the only broken instrument that works. ~T.E. Kalem
My heavy lids fought against me as I struggled to wake up. I was shocked to find myself lying fully clothed on my bed. How did I get here?
A remembrance so horrifying and painful slammed in my thoughts like a rubber band pulled back to full force I fell back to my pillows. My breathing sped up on its own accord as I tried to place the memory. Edward and I making love. Edward breaking my arm. The hospital. Alice and Edward fighting. Edward telling me something…..telling me goodbye. Edward walking away.
My eyes grew blurry as I shook my head vigorously trying to clear what had to be a nightmare. My lungs burned as the air whooshed in and out too fast for them to even register the presence. No, it was just a dream. My breathing slowed and I choked on a laugh. I stood shakily searching for my phone.
I just needed to talk to Edward. I would tell him about the dream, he would tell me I was being silly and he would come over and lay with me until I feel asleep.
Everything will be fine I chanted. Everything will be fine, I flipped open the silver phone and pressed madly down on the first speed dial button. Everything will be fine, the phone rang twice, then there was a loud beep followed by the recorded message of a tired woman explaining the phone had been disconnected.
I didn't realize the phone had fallen through my fingers until the ominous thump rang through the room.
It was just a coincidence, something we will laugh about later. Emmett probably wanted to see what the insides of his phone looked like again.
This dream was just too vivid, the smells of scrubbed floors and salty copper blood at the hospital, the cracking sound of my arm was too accurate, the sickening words floating out of a pitch black room had my body shuddering in the horror of it. I lifted my hands to my face as the tears made their first appearance. Something hard smacked my forehead where my hand should have been. A sob ripped through me as my eyes fell upon a blue cast.
The world fell apart then, everything was real. He had left me. It was true, it was all real. The dark swept forward from the shadows, my knees gave out uselessly as the darkness pulled me back under.
