Hello all you wonderful people. I apologize for keeping you waiting. I hope you'll enjoy this chapter!

Alice's POV

It didn't take me long to head towards the door once the suggestion of going to the hospital ourselves was made. I headed off towards the garage and towards Emmett's car. I stood at the side of the front passenger's door while waiting for the other two to catch up. Soon we were on our way to the hospital and hopefully to more answers.

I gladly hugged my Mom in return once she saw us. She looked so tired. I felt so bad for her.

"You're father's resting peacefully," Mom said.

I about jumped for joy.

"Edward, however hasn't woken up yet. He doesn't seem to be responding to the medicine too well. Dr. Grayson is seeing what we can switch him over to." Mom she continued.

My spirit seemed to crush at that. Edward's my little brother. I love him so much. I hated what was happening. We soon moved towards the room and I immediately went over to see about Edward. Don't get me wrong, I was worried about my Dad too, but Edward was on the agenda at the moment. Bella had come with me and we just looked at Edward for a moment. It was hard to see him like this. He looked like he was in pain. Just as I was about to reach over and run my fingers through his hair, he let out a gasp of pain. I frowned and looked at Bella for a second.

"Mom?" I called.

She quickly came over to see what was wrong before asking Bella to find a nurse. It wasn't long before the guy I remembered from a long ago showed up and ushered us out into the hallway. Mom held onto me while we sat there waiting on news. She then drew away from me when the doctor came out. I sat there listening to what was said and blinked as tears came to my eyes.

"It'll be ok. They both will be ok." Mom said.

I merely sniffled, but nodded. What else could I do? I sighed and leaned against mom once she sat down again.

"Alice, honey, are you alright?" She asked me.

"I'm fine Mom. It's just so much." I replied.

"I know sweetie. I know, but they are going to be fine. Come on." She said and we stood to our feet to go back into the room.

Mom held me tightly as we went in. My eyes skimmed over my Dad's way, but my focus was once more on Edward. I made my way back over to him and sat down in the chair that was there. I just looked at him and felt tears start to fall from my eyes. I reached over and laid a hand on his forehead, brushing back his hair a little before I heard a male voice. At first I thought maybe the doctor had come in and I hadn't heard him, but then it sounded confused. I then heard my mom say my Dad's name and that she was happy that he was alright. I quickly stood to my feet and moved around the curtain.

"Daddy?" I asked.

Mom motioned for me to come over and I burst into tears as I ran over to him.

"Daddy, I'm so glad you're ok." I said.

"Me too." Dad said.

I hugged him tightly and relaxed against him for a while. I guess mom had given us a moment 'cause next thing I knew, Dad was asking for me to call her back. I stood to my feet and walked back over towards Edward and Mom. I told her Dad wanted her. Once more beside Edward, I took his hand in mine as I sat down in the chair. I talked to him a little bit before I realized how tired I was getting. I yawned and stretched with a sigh. I looked longingly at the bed and figured there was enough room for me to lie there beside him, so I climbed in. It was so warm and nice just being beside him, knowing he was breathing, I think I fell asleep as soon as I rested my head on his arm.

"Sweetheart….." I heard and frowned, but forced myself to wake up a little.

"Huh?" I asked.

"You probably can't sleep here. You have…." I heard somewhere.

"'m comfy." I murmured.

"Come on." I figured out it was mom and soon found myself out of the bed.

"Where… where we going?" I asked with a yawn.

"I'm going to have Emmett take you home so you can go to sleep in your own bed." She said.

There was a knock on the door and a nursed walked in, but I was starting to fall asleep again. Must have nodded off 'cause the next thing I knew Emmett and Bella were in front of me.

"I need you to take Alice home so that she can sleep in her own bed." Mom said.

"I don't wanna. I'm fine here. Edward needs me." I mumbled.

"I'll see that she gets home ok. We'll be back later Mom." I heard Emmett say as I started to float.

I don't remember most of the trip home, but I remember settling in my comfy bed before drifting off again.

"Alice, wake up. I want an early start to the hospital." I heard.

Frowning, confused for a second, I bolted up in bed and turned to see Emmett standing at my door.

"We're home?" I asked.

"Yeah. Got here last night, remember?" He asked a little worried.

"How did I…? Oh yeah." I started and then fell back against my pillows.

"Come on. I'm gonna call Bella and get her over here so you need to get up." He said.

"Alright." I replied and got up.

My first stop was the bathroom and a nice hot shower. I smiled excitedly as I remember getting the chance to talk to Dad. Maybe today Edward would wake up and everything would be back to normal. Or at least as normal as it could be for us. Scrubbing the last of the soap off my body, I turned off the water and dressed quickly. Forty-five minutes later, I practically ran out the bathroom and out of my room, down to the kitchen and into a chair.

"What do you want for breakfast?" Emmett asked.

"I don't care. I'll probably fix some cereal." I said.

Emmett blinked at me for a minute and then a smile cracked over his face. I blinked at him and then stood up to fix a bowl of cereal. I wasn't too sure why he was looking at me funny, but I shrugged it off as I reached the refrigerator and grabbed the milk. Pouring enough into the bowl, I replaced it where it belonged and walked back over to my chair, grabbing a spoon on the way.

"What?" I finally asked, before taking my first bite, after looking up to see him still grinning as he was at me.

"Sorry, I'm just happy to see you eating of your own free will." He said.

I raised an eyebrow and took another bite. I guess I hadn't really been eating to well. Putting it off, I finished off my bowl as the doorbell rang. I quickly placed my empty bowl and spoon into the sink and ran for the door.

"Hello Bella." I answered after seeing it was her in the peephole.

"Alice… you seem… different today." She said.

I could tell she wanted to smile, but she didn't seem to know if it was ok or not.

"I'm not sure I know what you mean." I said and smiled as I let her in.

"Hey Bella. You guys ready to go?" Emmett asked as he made his way into the living room.

"Yep." I said cheerfully.

Bella nodded.

"Alright, let's get this show on the road then." Emmett said and headed towards the garage.

We, once again, piled into his car and headed off to the hospital once he locked up the house.

Carlisle POV

Since I woke up, things seemed to have been getting better. That was the case for myself, at least. Edward had yet to show improvement and we were starting to get worried. It was great to see that everyone else seemed to be doing well. I took a moment to look at my wife and felt rather sorry for her. How long had she been here?

"Honey?" I called out to her.

"Hummm… yes dear?" She replied.

"Go home. You need proper rest. When was the last time you slept?" I asked.

"I don't want to leave you two. What if you need me?" She asked.

I felt bad.

"I'm sorry love." I said.

Just then Emmett, Alice, and Bella walked in.

"Hey Mom. Dad. How are you this morning?" Alice asked.

"I'm alright. Wanting your mother to go home so she can sleep in a proper bed." I said.

"Sorry Mom, but I kind of have to agree with Dad. You don't look as vibrant as you normally do. Why don't you go get some sleep. We'll be here and if anything happens will call you." Emmett said.

Esme just looked between us for a minute and then sighed in defeat.

"Alright. Fine. I know when I'm not wanted." Esme said.

"It's not a matter of wanting you or not. It's a worry for your own health." Alice said and hugged her.

Esme looked at her with a raised brow and shook her head. She then moved to Emmett and gave him a hug.

"Take care of your father and your brother." She said.

Emmett and Alice nodded. She then looked over at Bella.

"The same goes for you." Esme said before engulfing her in a hug as well.

Bella smiled and nodded her understanding.

We all waved good-bye before Esme walked out the door.

"So how are you really feeling Pops?" Emmett asked.

"I feel good, just really tired." I said with a yawn.

I hated that feeling. All I practically do while in this hospital is sleep. How could I still be tired? Of course I knew the answer, but it still sucked.

"What have you three been up to since you left yesterday?" I asked them.

"Not much." Alice answered.

"I've just been updating Charlie on what's going on." Bella answered.

"Trying to make sure Alice is taking better care of herself." Emmett responded.

"I see." I said.

"I'm glad to see you're awake and talking to us Carlisle." Bella said.

"Thank you Bella. As am I. I do apologize for the scare. I'll be sure not to do that again." I said.

Emmett and Alice shared a look, but didn't say anything. I didn't ask them about it.

"I'm gonna go check on Edward." Alice said.

"I'll go with you." Bella said.

The two of them walked off leaving Emmett and myself.

"So you're really ok now?" Emmett asked.

He had a look of worry on his face. I smiled and reached out my hand to him. He came closer and sat down in the seat his mother had been in.

"I'm really ok now." I said and rested my hand on his head.

He smiled and sighed. I knew he took after his mother in the respect of staying strong for the family, but sometimes he needed that reassurance that things were ok.

"What do they say about Edward?" He asked.

"I haven't spoken to Dr. Grayson in a while. He'll probably be coming shortly. We can ask him then." I said.

Just then a gasp was heard from one of the girls and Alice screamed.

"No Edward! Nooo!"

Emmett quickly stood up from the chair and pushed the curtain aside to see what was going on. The machines connected to Edward were going crazy and I knew something was wrong.

Well... I hope you enjoyed this chapter! Let me know!
