Chapter 12. Waking Up from the Darkness
I was whirling into the darkness so fast I felt like vomiting. I needed to stop the spinning, stop the world around me and wake up from whatever this was. I could hear different things in the background. People talking, metal clanking together, music…I heard it all. I was trying to swim through the black whirlwind I was in but I couldn't just yet. I was getting there though.
"Do you need anything else Mr. Cullen?" a soft spoken woman asked Edward. I felt a pricking on my hand and soon the throbbing was basically gone.
"No, thank you. My wife's hand is all stitched up but could you ask the pilot what time we will be landing back in Seattle?" Edward's calm but tired voice asked politely to the stewardess from what I predicted. She probably gave him a nod then left. Wife? What wife? I wasn't his WIFE!
I was almost there. I could finally feel the world stop spinning and soon all I could see was the darkness behind my eyelids. I finally gathered the strength to open my eyes and soon I was staring at Edward's back as he fidgeted with something on a metal tray. It was filled with bloody water and tools only seen in an operating room.
"E-Edward?" I asked groggily. I lifted my good hand, the one that didn't throb painfully, up to touch my aching head. He spun around in shock after jumping a little in his seat and looked at me with wide eyes for a moment.
"Bella! You're awake!" he said anxiously as I stared at him. I could tell he was extremely exhausted by now and the light outside the jet window was far gone, only to be covered by stars and purple, dark blue and black clouds in the sky. Edward's hair and skin was covered in blood. My blood. His eyes were had purple circles under them while his eyes were dull and tired looking.
"I'm sorry…about everything." I whispered as I felt tears starting to come to my eyes. I was sorry about everything. About throwing my little fit (anxiety attack), about passing out and bashing his car window in. I was so sorry.
"Bella, sweetheart." Edward said calmingly, pushing a piece of hair behind my ear then kissing my forehead. "Don't be sorry. It was my fault. I really shouldn't have brought those things up. I'm sorry." He said looking over my face quietly then gently kissing my forehead. It wasn't his fault but I wasn't in the mood to fight and I was tired and hungry so I knew if I did argue I'd get cranky so I didn't start.
"Edward," I whispered as he pulled away. "You're tired." I said rubbing my thumb under his eyes gently.
"So are you." he said chuckling then calling to the stewardess. "You must be starving. What would you like to eat?" Edward asked calmly.
"Just a sandwich or something please…" I said smiling at him groggily.
"Bring her a sandwich and some milk or orange juice please." Edward said to the stewardess before calmly looking back at me. She retreated to behind the door she came through quickly and quietly and there I was left with the man I loved.
"Milk or orange juice? What am I, five?" I asked jokingly. Edward smiled at me with a little chuckle bubbling up to his lips and began to explain.
"You lost a lot of blood, my love. Orange juice and Milk help increase your red blood cells and begin auditioning your blood again." he said looking down at my hand covered in gauze. I noticed I had been bathe-which meant;' and changed due to my hair still being slightly damp and I was now wearing a black silk robe with crimson red, silk pajama bottoms and a spaghetti strap matching top. I was actually quite comfortable in the things someone had asked me dressed me in and it felt good being clean but Edward looked like hell and I needed him to be comfortable if I wanted to be comfortable as well.
"Why don't you go take a shower and change while I eat." I said smiling at him gently. Edward looked over me, trying to see if I was truly worried or just trying to get rid of him. I guess he figured it out that I was actually quite worried about him being drenched in my own blood, so he kissed my head and stood up slowly, almost reluctantly.
"Alright then. I'll be back in ten minutes. You're food should be out in a few minutes. Just try and relax okay?" Edward said calmly. I nodded and watched him as he moved towards what seemed like a cabin. I noticed when he opened the door to the small cabin it was actually quite big. With a large king sized bed with black satin sheets and a door leading to the bathroom I presumed.
H closed the door behind him and not even five seconds later, the stewardess came in with a large tray full of different sorted fruits and mini sub sandwiches along with three or four glasses full of milk and different juices.
"Here you are Mrs. Cullen." the young woman probably only a few years older than me said shakily before smiling nervously at me then darting off to her cabin.
"Mrs…?" I whispered to myself. I was confused but hunger overturned my confusion and soon I was digging through the tuna sandwich, then the chicken salad sandwich, then the cheese sand which and then gulped down a full glass of milk. I practically swallowed a few strawberries whole before finally deciding I was beyond full.
"I see you were hungry." I heard Edward's calm voice say chuckling lightly. I looked up at him embarrassed since I was still chewing the calmly swallowed before seeing him. I held back a little whimper and looked him over.
His hair was still drenched and wet from the shower and he wasn't wearing anything but a towel around his waist. He was rubbing through his hair with another towel in his hand and walked over to me barefooted.
"Are you feeling any better now?" Edward asked coming over with a smug smile on his face to peck me lightly on the lips.
"Why are you wearing…that?" I asked pointing to his towel. Edward looked down at his perfect chest and towel wrapping his…lower area. He let out a soft scoff and chuckled lightly before sitting on the little couch beside me.
"I wanted to make sure you were okay before I changed." he said staring at me lightly. I raised an eyebrow and soon Edward's lips were on mine again. I placed my hands on his cheeks and before I knew it, I was being whisked away to our living cabins.
