Thanks to my reviewers! This chapter is much better than the last one! Also, I'm so very sorry about the update wait! Blame my math homework… but hey, I have all A's and two B's! Yay me! Here's your celebratory chapter. XD
Bella's P.O.V.
We'd been on our honeymoon for two weeks now. The first night was… amazing. We did some things that I'd rather not go into detail about, but it was still amazing.
"Hey love." Edward said, walking into the kitchen in the house on Esme Isle.
"Hey. What's up? You look paler than usual, have you hunted recently?" I asked concerned, examining his face. He looked paler, almost transparent. More like he looked before the transformation from a ghost. "Do you- do you think you could be turning back into a ghost?"
"No, I don't think so. I can't go through solid objects it might just be the lighting in here." He said, frowning.
"Should we call Carlisle- Edward!" I screamed.
His skin shimmered for a second before he collapsed on the ground, twisting and contorting in pain.
His phone started vibrating suddenly. It was Alice.
"Alice! It's Edward!" I sobbed into the phone as I answered it.
"Bella, I believe that he's turned back into a spirit. If he doesn't get home quickly and within the next twenty-four hours, or Edward's going to disappear forever!" She said, her tone colored with worry and alarm.
:"Alice. Can you-"
"I've got it covered Bells, also, others can still see him, so that will only make things more difficult, oh, and here's Carlisle." Alice said.
"Bella?" He asked.
"Get Edward here, and fast. I'll try to get your parents out of the house so they don't have to be involved. Right now, I'm sending Esme, Emmett, and Rosalie with our helicopter now, but we're going to be cutting it close. They should be there in a few hours. Try to help Edward during that time. I'm going to work on getting your parents by the time you get back." Carlisle said.
I didn't take the time to ponder why they had a helicopter, I just mumbled goodbye to Carlisle and got to Edward's side.
To my relief, he had stopped thrashing around and lay there, not looking at anything. I reached out my hand to touch him, luckily I could.
"Edward. Edward please open your eyes." I said. His eyes flickered open.
"Bella?" He asked, but I noticed something, his eyes were bright green.
"Edward, your eyes are green again." I said tearfully.
He pushed his hand against the floor, as if experimenting something, and watched as it went right through.
"Edward, I love you, always and forever." I said, fearful that I might not get a chance later.
"Bella, the twenty-four hours already started. I can feel it. We only have about six hours left." He said his eyes somber.
"No! I can't lose you yet Edward." I cried. I knew that if that was true, he had no chance of surviving.
"Bella, listen to me. I love you, and always will. And once you die we'll meet up again. I promise." He said, smiling.
"Edward, I love you so much, you are my life now. You won't have to wait very long. Just promise me one thing." I said.
"What?"
"If you can send a message from heaven when you get there, will you?" I asked.
"Yes, I will. I will sign up personally to be your guardian angel." He smiled. "Bella, please don't cry."
"Edward, I can't help it." I laughed a shaky laugh, and hugged him tightly, going into hysterics.
He rubbed my back consolingly, and I soon got a phone call from Alice.
"Bella… Edward's not going to make it. We're only a forth of the way there, and He has about five hours left. I'm sorry." She cried into the phone.
"I know Alice. It's going to be hard. But I want to spend as much time as I can with him right now. Call me when you're almost here."
"Of course, bye Bella." She said sadly, hanging up.
I got hit with an idea. "Edward! What about when Alice gets here, she can bite you again! That would buy you more time!" I said happily, my hope renewed.
"I'm not sure if it would work a second time, but we can certainly try." He said, his eyes brighter.
"I love you Edward." I said, kissing him.
"And you Bella." He smiled.
We embraced, not talking, just glad of the others presence. We stayed like this until Alice came.
When we suggested it to her, she nodded, and Esme positioned her teeth over Edward's neck. She bit down.
Cliffhanger! (Sorry evil side couldn't resist.) I'd bet you didn't expect that! And get this, there are only two chapters left! Anyway, review more, and I'll update faster! Also, I'll probably finish the story tonight.... this morning... whatever. The fact of the matter is, I'll be up probably until ten a.m. writing. It's about two in the morning now, so you guys are in luck. You get more chapters. Congrats! XD ~BellaCullen2312
