BPOV:
Morning came too fast for my liking. The sun was unusually out and shining through the windows. Today is the day that I start treatment. I know it will be very rough, but I have the love of my family and Edward.
Edward. His voice ran through my head. I couldn't live without him and I know he can't live without me. We are two parts of a whole. If you take one away, the other one can't live.
With the love of my family, truth be told, I'm terrified. No, not for me of course, but for Edward. I know this is going to take a toll on his health and that he'll worry too much. I just don't want to leave everything behind for me. I mean, seriously, I'm not worth it.
I looked over to me right and I saw my beautiful fiancé sleeping. He looked gorgeous even in his sleep. Our legs were still tangled together and my head was to his chest. He wrapped his arms around me as he slept.
I looked over to the clock on the nightstand and it read 6:30 AM. I groaned. I really didn't want to wake up. I had to be at the hospital by 8 and who really knows how long I have to stay there or if I do get better?
I kissed Edward cheek and carefully got up, not wanting to wake him. He stirred for a bit, but then went back to sleep.
I decided to go to the bathroom. I looked into the mirror and I gasped. I could see light purple bruises all over my body. My eyes started to water. This is a bad sign. I thought quietly to myself.
I remembered what Carlisle told me yesterday. He told me that I would start to bruise easily because of my leukemia. I knew that Edward would be furious at himself and think that it was all his fault. I couldn't let him think that way. I started running toward the bathroom door when I heard Edward starting getting up and calling my name.
He couldn't see me like this. This would be too much for him. I ran, but I should've known he was faster. He ran up to me and pulled me into his arms.
"Bella." He whispered quietly. "Why are you running away from me?"
I felt the tears starting to form in my eyes and fall to my cheeks. I removed his arms from me and stood in front of him. He looked up and down my body and he stood there blank.
His eyes had so much emotion in them. I could see shock, anger, frustration, and guilt. No he couldn't be this way.
I hugged him and he hugged me back, but he held back. He was holding me like I am going to break at any moment.
"Bella. I'm so sorry. This is all my fault. You have bruises all over you. I am so sorry Bella." I saw tears water up I his eyes. At that moment, my heart literally broke.
I kissed him and he kissed back, but tenderly.
I looked at him straight in the eyes. "Edward Cullen you listened to me. This is NOT your fault. Don't ever blame yourself for what's happening to me. Sometimes things happen and this is one of those things. I love you Edward. Please don't blame yourself. I can't take it if you do. Please for me?" I said as the tears rolled down my cheeks.
He looked like he was fighting an internal battle. I knew I won when he saw me crying. I knew it hurt him to see me this way, but if this is what it will take him to see reason, there's not another choice.
He broke off the kissed and I pecked him on the cheek. I went to the bathroom and started a shower. I went in and then I gasped when I felt a pair of arms holding me. I chuckled and saw Edward in the shower with me.
"Just trying to conserve water." He said teasingly.
I laughed. "Sure you are."
After our shower to "conserve" water, I went into Edward's room and found some of my clothes in his drawers. I found a pair of loose faded blue jeans and a blue tunic shirt with a juicy couture sweater. I pulled on my gray Uggs and brushed my hair. I wanted to be comfortable today. Who knows how long I'll be there?
I went into the living room and saw Edward. He was wearing loose jeans and a t-shirt that clung to his muscles and abs. He grabbed his coat and got his keys off of the table. He took my hand and we walked out to his Volvo. He opened the door for me and I slid in. He went inside and put the keys in the ignition and started to drive.
He stopped at Starbucks. I ordered a small caramel frappicino and a bagel while Edward ordered a black coffee and a blueberry muffin. We ate for about 20 minutes and decided it was time to go to the hospital.
We were driving on the road and then I decided to speak. I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my stomach.
"Edward." I said quietly while clutching my stomach.
"Yes love?" he asked still looking at the road.
I screamed out as the pain took over me. I saw Edward stop the car and screaming my name. I tried to talk to him, but the pain was too much to handle. He raced to the hospital in under 5 minutes and then he started saying things like It's going to be alright or we're here love. Hang on. I felt him pick me up and go into the emergency room. He was screaming for Carlisle came out and screamed for a gurney. It was then that I realized that I was bleeding. I tried to stay awake and Edward was right by my side.
Carlisle started screaming for some things that I couldn't hear. I blacked out not knowing if it was going to be my last day seeing my beautiful Edward again.
