Disclaimer: I do not own these characters. Stephenie Meyer does and I love her for creating these characters and her story that goes along with them.

So this is the orginal chapter for 21 I just added a little more detail and Ali of course edited my grammar...I am sorry for rushing it but I really want to get on with the rest of the stroy...please forgive me if you dont like it i promise not to rush anything else...

Ok so I am not doing Emmett's random questions they will come into play later in the story but I really want to move on with the story…but maybe I will write a chapter about it some other day but today I am not in the mood for light and fluffy…so on with the story.

Bella's POV

Edward came everyday after school to help catch me up on school work. He had been doing this for the past two weeks and today, Friday was my last day in the hospital. Over the past week he and I have started becoming really good friends. I was starting to think of him more than a friend, but I knew a guy like Edward would never want to date someone who was as damaged as I was…I was the poster child for damaged goods and a girl with a lot of baggage.

Two days ago would have been my last day, but I past out when I tried to get up and Emmett, Charlie, and Edward made me stay another day. Edward was starting to become even more protective than Emmett over me but don't get me wrong Emmett was still really over protective. Like last week the nurse had made some comment to me about losing a lot of weight and that I needed to start eating more but Emmett apparently talked to the nurse or my doctors and got it Okayed for him to bring me every fast food imaginable. But just getting me normal ok tasting food was not enough for him… no Emmett sat in my hospital room and would not leave until I eat the 2 big n' tastys', 10 chicken nuggets, and two large things fries he brought me. It took me a while to get it all down and I felt rather sick afterwards but it was ok because I knew it made Emmett feel better. I hated that everyone was so worried about me but I did my best to make them think I was fine.

Flash back…..Monday

"Hi Isabella, I am Nancy, the hospital psychologist."

"Umm…hi and it's Bella if you don't mind."

"Okay, well, hi Bella, I am here to just ask you a few questions and just make sure your doing okay…Is that okay with you?" she said this as if I had a choice in the matter, which I knew I did not…

"So, I know you have been having some problems remembering things Bella. Do you remember anything yet about why you are here?"

"No, but Emmett told me it was because I was hit by a bus…" I knew this was a lie, but everyone thought I did not remember why I was in the hospital but in truth I remembered probably about a day after I woke up. I had heard Rose and Alice say the word Phil when they thought I was asleep, and everything came back to me in a flash. Luckily, Alice and Rose where just leaving the room as I heard them say the name because moments after the door closed, I lost it. I cried through the entire night and it was hard to face Emmett and Edward after that knowing what they had seen. But I knew I had to play it off and be the strong one. And, though, I was never a good actor, I was glad I could pull this charade off.

The doctor finished her questioning and then she left, satisfied that I had no clue why I was there and thinking that I was blissfully happy.

End Flash Back

I hated the time I was alone in the hospital. While I knew that Charlie, Emmett, Edward, Rose, Jasper, and Alice all tried to be there as often as they could they could not always be there. It was times like this when I was alone in my room that I sometimes could not tell the difference between my dreams or should I say nightmares and reality. Like two days ago, it was probably about noon and I had just finished my lunch when Phil walked into my room.

Flash Back…

When Phil walked into the room, he locked the door and then stood against it and stared at me for a while.

"I told you not to tell anyone."

"I didn't tell an-" but he cut me off.

"Don't lie to me you filthy whore!"

"But I didn't! I swear….Please, just leave Phil" I was honestly scared to death at this moment and hoped he would not touch me.

"Well, Isabella you know I do not make threats. I make promises so I guess you have left me no choice but to kill that worthless piece of shit you call your mother." He said in a flat tone that made him only that much scarier. But without another word, he turned around unlocked the door and left.

This would have terrified me if not for the fact that I knew Phil was in custody. But none the less, until I came to that conclusion, I was scared senseless.

I was pulled out of my memory when everyone walked into my room. Alice was the first to approach me and she had something hidden behind her back. I looked in her eyes and could immediately tell that what ever was behind her back I was not going to like.

"Bella…I have a surprise for you…." She said in a sing song voice…

"No…Alice….I do not want it. All I want is to go home!"

"And you will, but this is part of going home…" and she unveiled the outfit she had hidden behind her back. My eyes got huge as I looked at the outfit she had picked out. It was a jean mini shirt that looked way too short for my taste and a blue tank top that had a picture of Gob-stoppers on it. Nice touch.

"No way am I ever wearing that and especially not when I am covered in head to toe with bruises, but hey, maybe I should wear the shirt. It will match my bruises and I do love Gob-stoppers..." I said in a sarcastic tone but everyone seemed to laugh, particularly Emmett and Edward when I said that I loved Gob-stoppers, which kind of confused me but I just let it go.

"Oh Bella, don't be silly. I brought leggings to go under the skirt and here is the long sleeve shirt to go under the tank top…Even though your bruises really aren't that bad any more…Plus, if you don't wear this, you will have to walk out of here in the hospital gown that has no butt…" My cheeks burned when I imagined myself walking out in that and the fact that Edward was in the room made my cheeks only that much brighter. I could tell everyone other than Alice was uncomfortable with me talking about my bruises so I decided to drop that part of my argument. I quickly then also decided I should save my energy and just let Alice win because she was going to in the end anyway…"That's what I thought…"

I know it is short but once again I had to write other wise the ideas would be buzzing around keeping me from sleeping again…oh and now by the end of writing this chapter I have decided that unless a lot of people tell me that they want to hear about Emmett's random questions I am not going to write a chapter about it because it is kind of out of character for Emmett with Bella being all beaten up and stuff but I do plan on putting the video made into the story later somehow…oh as always thanks for reading and please review…and tell me what you didn't or did like …I always love a good critique….ok but now I seriously am not sure when I will update again…less I decided to blow off some homework which I probably will once me and Ali talk tomorrow in creative writing and come up with some amazing ideas even though I know what is coming up next…and I can not wait to write it and was going to put it in this chapter but my fingers hurt from peck typing and I am really tired….so please R&R….oh and can anyone tell me what Flame is….i know it is mean review but what does it stand for?
