Twilight: Chapter 11- Aiming for Your Back
You know that moment when you're really bored so your mind starts to wander? Yeah, it was one of those moments. I was sitting on the couch in Bella' hospital room, next to Edward who was faking being asleep. He did it terribly, but that's Edward for ya. Renee was sitting in the chair next to Bella's bed.
I was flipping through a magazine when I heard, "Bella? Baby?"
I looked up and saw Bella blinking. I continued reading my magazine, not acknowledging anything. She still stabbed me with a pencil.
"Mom?" Bella asked. Renee smiled and said, "Hey."
"Where are they? Where's… Where's Edward and Cory?" Bella asked. Renee turned and looked at Edward and I and I stood up. I stood behind Renee's seat and said, "Hey sleeping beauty. Edward's asleep."
"They never leave," Renee said with a smile.
"What happened?" Bella asked. I smirked as Renee said, "Well, when you fell you broke your leg, and you lost a lot of blood. You don't remember any of this do you?"
Of course not- because none of it's true. Bella shook her head no so I filled her in saying, "Edward came down with Carlisle and I to convince you to try to come back to Forks. So you went over to our hotel, then you tripped, and you fell down two flights of stairs. Then you went through a window."
"Yeah, that sounds like me," Bella said. Renee cooed and I rolled my eyes. Her phone then beeped and she said, "It's Phil. He's so worried about you."
"You're texting," Bella said in astonishment. Renee chuckled and said, "Finally, yeah, Cory taught me," I smiled, "I told him to stay down in Florida. Honey, you are gonna love Jacksonville. It's sunny every day, and we found the cutest little house, and you've got your own bathroom-" She was interrupted by Bella saying, "-Mom, I still wanna live in Forks."
"What?" Renee asked, shocked. I smirked as Bella said, "I want to live in Forks."
"Well, okay, but we'll talk about it," Renee said. Bella paused and watched me mouth, Apologize; Charlie.
"Do you mind getting Dad?" Bella asked, "I have to talk to him; apologize."
Renee nodded and said, "Okay, baby. I'll go get him. And I'll go get a nurse, okay? Cory do you mind staying?"
I nodded and said, "Didn't plan on leaving."
As soon as Renee left Bella asked me and Edward who opened his eyes, "What happened? Where's James?"
"We took care of it," Edward said, "And the woman, Victoria, she ran off."
"I'm alive because of you," Bella said. Oh thanks for giving all the credit to the guy who dropped you. Edward shook his head and said, "No, you're in here because of me."
Much better.
"The worst part of it was that I thought I wasn't going to be able to stop," Edward said. I scoffed and said, "I would've decked you."
"You did stop," Bella said. Edward sighed and said, "Bella you gotta go to Jacksonville so I can't hurt you anymore."
"What? Are you… No! No! I don't even know what you're… How… What are you talking about? You want me to go away? I can't… No, I can't… I can't just leave you…" Bella protested.
"I know," Edward said and Bella said, "We can't be apart. You can't leave me."
"I'm here," Edward said. Bella nodded and said, "Okay, just don't… You can't just say stuff like that to me… ever."
Bella relaxed and Edward said, "Where else am I gonna go?"
He leaned forwards and kissed her on the head and when he sat back down Bella looked at me and I said, "I'm still mad at you about the pencil. Do you know how much it hurts getting stabbed in the neck?"
Bella sighed and said, "Sorry."
I rolled my eyes and said, "I'm not forgiving you yet. That fucking hurt- it was like getting stabbed in the back-" I was interrupted as she said, "I was aiming for your back but you moved."
I stared at her in shock and then walked over to the door saying, "I'm leaving to get something to drink after that. Goodbye."
I shut the door behind me.
Later that week when Bella was getting ready for prom I was downstairs sitting on the stairs. I heard Bella coming downstairs and so did Edward and Charlie as they came through the kitchen doorway.
She was wearing converse, a brace, and had a small amount of makeup on. She sighed and said, "Alice leant me the dress. The cast is…" She chuckled and Edward said, "You're perfect."
I licked my lips and Edward said, "I'll take care of her, Chief Swan."
Charlie nodded and said, "Uh huh; I've heard that before."
I chuckled and patted Edward on the back, hard, and said, "Have fun, stay safe."
I grabbed my keys and headed outside. I got in my jeep and turned up the volume on my radio as I headed to Seattle for a game of pool.
AN: And New Moon is coming up next! I'll probably be updating whenever I feel like it and not once a day anymore because I've written so much on this story, and it's frustrating that you all are only in Twilight.
