"Then why are we waiting here? Let's go!" Edward screeched.

Jacob held up a hand and Edward immediately quieted down.

"We can't just go," Jacob pointed out. "Who is going to watch Julia?"

"We'll just take her to my parents on the way to get Bella back," Edward concluded.

The men all agreed with the plan and headed to the Cullen household. Edward practically busted the door down and Esme looked at him with shock.

"Edward? What's wrong? Who are these guys?" she questioned.

Edward just handed Esme her granddaughter.

"Esme, I will explain when I get back. Just…please. It's important."

Esme nodded and Carlisle put his hand on Edward's shoulder.

"Go. We'll be here when you get back."

Edward just nodded and ran back out to the hummer. Paul jumped in the driver seat and Jacob in the passenger seat. Edward took the seat behind Paul so but leaned forward so he could see out of the windshield. He couldn't bear to ask questions. He was afraid of the answers he would get. He couldn't imagine not having Bella in his life. She was the mother of his child, the woman that he adores. He couldn't imagine not having her for the rest of his life. He knew if it weren't for Julia, he would probably have killed himself if something happened to Bella. For now he could just hope and pray that she was okay.

The boys pulled up to a warehouse and got out as silently as possible. Edward took the Glock out of the back of his pants while the other two men got their weapons prepared.

"I'll lead. No, Edward, don't argue. We know that you love Bella and want her safe and sound, but we're the professionals here. We know how to handle this better," Paul explained slowly.

Edward just huffed in agitation but agreed. They got together the best plan they could as quick as possible. It was decided that Edward would enter in first to surprise whoever was with Bella. Jacob had thought that they'd expect him or one of his guys, not Bella's own love. Once Edward bust through the door, his heart stopped. Bella was there, on the ground with her eyes closed, blood surrounding her. Edward fell to his knees and everything went black.

"Yes, everything looks normal. She had a head injury that wasn't too significant. Heads bleed a lot. Yes, I'm sure she'll be okay."

"She went into cardiac arrest an hour ago. It looks like something that our tests could not detect. We don't know if she'll make it. I'm terribly sorry."

"Wow, she looks a lot like her mommy. It looks like she might be getting her mommy back soon. She opened her eyes for the first time today. No, we haven't been able to find any permanent brain damage."

"She was clinically dead for five minutes, Mr. Cullen. This is not any poison that we've seen. We don't know what's going to happen to her. It's been a bad day."

Edward slowly sunk to the ground and held his head in his hands. Every day. Every fucking day it was a different story. They had given Bella a poison that was not known. It's nothing that they'd ever seen. Once it had started to take over her system she had fainted, resulting in the head injury. The poison was slowly taking over her body. They had no idea how to fight it and how much longer she had.

He got up as slowly as he had gotten down when he saw Bella's doctor walking towards him. The doctor had a small smile. That didn't bring Edward much comfort; he'd seen this smile too many times. The next day, Bella would be in critical condition. Nothing could comfort Edward right now.

"Hello, Mr. Cullen. I have some great news for you. Bella's awake and talking. She's asking for you and Julia."

Edward had an equally small smile for the doctor. This was the first time that Bella was actually talking. Gosh, how he missed her voice. With just a nod, he walked into her hospital room.

"Edward," she breathed.

One Year Later

"Mommy!" Julia giggled.

Bella laughed along with her daughter as she tossed her gently into the air. It was Julia's favorite game. The two adults were spending a couple more minutes with their daughter before it was time to leave for their honeymoon. Bella couldn't stop her smile as she looked at her wedding ring.

"It was about time I got that ring on you," Edward chuckled as he kissed Bella on the temple.

She just rolled her eyes and handed her daughter to Grandma Esme and Grandpa Carlisle. The past year at been quite the roller coaster ride. Bella had never fully gotten over the effects of the poison so she still had some memory issues. She couldn't remember anything from the time she was taken to when she woke up in the hospital. She had some short term memory problems, but not with anything too major.

Once Bella had woken up and had everything explained to her, she proposed to Edward.

"I can't risk losing you, Edward," she had said in a small voice with tears in her eyes, "marry me."

He slipped the engagement ring on her finger and they were married in just under a year. Jacob and Paul had never stopped the search for the men who kidnapped Bella. They were still on the hunt, but had good ideas of who they were looking for. Life had returned to as close to normal as it could.

The happy couple got to the airport and were boarding the airplane when they heard it.

"I'm back, Isabella. Miss me?"
