"Ah, Bella. How the sweet girl's big and kind heart is weak is beyond me. But as a matter of fact, there is an acquaintance of mine who can help you. He's worked with us for years and is an expert in cardiology and surgery. His name is Eleazer Denali. He's situated in Seattle, so it'll be easy for you meet him. I'll talk to him for you."
"Thank you, Aro. As always, you have saved me again."
"No worries, dear boy. You just take care of the lady, you hear me? Or there will be consequences." I was surprised by Aro's threat but smiled at how much he's started to care about Bella.
"Of course, Aro."
"Good, take care, son."
"Good bye, Aro."
I hung up and then gave a short laugh. Of course Bella managed to soften a tough nut like Aro. Her spell has no bounds. Everywhere she goes, she spreads love. She's an angel. My Angel. I smiled. How the hell did I get lucky enough to call her my wife is beyond me, but I'm not going to question it. She's my life now.
20. Doctor, Doctor
Three months ago
Seattle
We had been back from our blissful honeymoon for a week but even then it was so hard to keep my hands off of her. I had been working for Octagon Construction Company for a year now and when they were eager to send me to Seattle. I grabbed the opportunity.
But as soon as I was back, they dumped a fuck load of work on me. I groaned out when despite today being an off day, alarm rang out. Before I could hit snooze. Bella's hand shot out and she shut the alarm off. We were supposed to meet Dr. Denali today and Bella had been attempting to put it off for two days now. But, today, she's going even if I have to carry her on my shoulder.
"Bella, wake up. We have doctor's appointment today." I said and then kissed her eyelids.
She mumbled something and buried deeper into the bed. I smiled. "Bella, either you can wake up or I can wake you," I sang in a teasing voice.
She shot up immediately. "I'm up." She grumbled.
"Well, then get your sweet ass in shower, we can't be late." And I tapped the said ass lightly. She squealed and then rushed off to bathroom.
I started on a light breakfast, while Bella showered. When she got out, I place a plate of omelets and coffee before her before rushing into the bathroom myself.
When we were both done and ready, I grabbed her hand and asked, "Ready?"
She smiled and then said, "Not even a little bit."
Then we go out the door, hand in hand toward the car.
Bella and I waited in the waiting room while Dr. Denali was busy in a surgery. Dr. Denali was the doctor that Aro suggested because he was the best cardiologist and had worked with Aro for years.
A nurse came up to us and smiled. "Dr. Denali is ready for you." We followed her up to the doctor's office.
"Ah, Edward and Bella, I presume. Aro has talked highly of both of you, which is very rare for him."
"Dr. Denali, I'm sure Aro has explained the purpose of our visit." He nodded. "Bella was diagnosed with a defective heart when she was 16 and had been put in the list for transplant, but her chances are slim. Can you help us?" I asked, Looking at Bella's worried eyes.
"I can't say anything until I've run some tests." He turned to Bella. "Honey, do you have those reports that your doctors gave you?"
She nodded and then handed the file to Dr. Denali.
He spent the next 15 minutes reading the file and hmming and aahing. I lifted Bella's hand and kissed her knuckles lightly.
"It'll be okay. You'll see." I whispered and then pecked her head lightly. She just sighed.
Dr. Denali abruptly turned toward us. "To be honest, Bella, these reports do indicate a severe condition and a necessity of a transplant."
"Oh," she said exclaimed, disappointed.
Dr. Denali smiled kindly at her. "But just for my reassurance, I'd like to perform the tests myself. You don't mind, do you?"
Bell's eyes brightened. "Of course not."
Dr. Denali turned to me. "Edward, you can sit in the waiting room. I'll call you as soon as the tests are done."
I kissed Bella lightly on her lips. "I'll be right outside."
"Okay." She said and then hugged me.
I walked out the office and settled into a seat in the waiting room. For the next half hour, I read some medical magazine that didn't make any sense and then fidgeted in my seat until the nurse came back to call me. "You can come in, now."
When I entered the office, Dr. Denali was already seated across Bella reading her reports. When he saw me enter he smiled happily. "Ah, Edward. Great. So, I have good news for you both. As it turns out, it was a good thing I insisted on a recent test.
"Her heart is still weak, yes, but it is not as severe as it was 6 years ago. These six years have treated her well, and transplant isn't necessary anymore. But, a surgery is."
He saw both our grimaces and continued. "Now, it is not a lengthy procedure. The surgery will be done in half hour and Bella will be as good as new. I'll let my receptionist know and you can get the surgery appointment from her."
Bella's eyes brimmed with tears. "Thank you, so much Dr. Denali."
"Honey, please call me Eleazer. And it was nothing. You're the one who's strong. Remember that, okay?"
I shook hands with Eleazer and murmured my own thanks. "Now, you too take care, okay?"
We both nodded at Eleazer and left the office holding our hands and beaming.
Today was surgery day and the way Bella was fidgeting before the mirror, I knew she was terrified. I walked up to her and wrapped my arms around her.
"Hey, it's okay. Everything will be perfectly fine. I promise, okay?"
She smiled and then nodded.
"Then off we go." I said towing her toward the car.
It had been almost half hour since Bella was taken in for surgery. I kept praying for her safety and wellbeing while my heart beat loudly in my chest. Finally, a nurse came out. "The surgery is done. The doctor will be out in a minute to brief you."
I nodded at her and took a deep breath.
Soon, Dr. Denali came out and asked me to follow him to the office. As soon as I was in, he shut the door and turned to me. "Have a seat, Edward." Then he walked up to his own chair and settled down.
"First and foremost, the surgery was successful. She's completely fine. So you can breathe again." I let out a sigh in relief,
"Now, since she's still weak from surgery, we'll keep her here for 24 hours and then she will be discharged tomorrow. You can meet her but she's still unconscious. So, I suggest you go home, eat something and come back when she's awake."
"That's okay, doc. I'll stay here. And thank you so much. I really appreciate everything that you did for her."
He smiled kindly. "I was doing my job. She's a sweet girl. So take care of her, okay?"
I nodded. "Well, that's all. Like I said, you can see her if you want too."
I thanked him again and rushed out the office toward Bella. Sure enough she was still asleep. I took a seat beside her bed and dozed off myself.
I felt fingers grazing my hair and immediately my eyes snapped open. "You're awake."
She laughed. "So, it seems."
"Oh god, Bella. I was so worried and then all these scenarios kept running in my head and I didn't know wha-"
"Shh. It's okay. I'm fine now. The doctors said they will discharge me soon. So, we can go home together."
"Bella, you're going to live. Did the doctor tell you that?" I exclaimed excitedly.
She laughed again. "He might have mentioned it." Then she stared at my eyes seriously. "Thank you, Edward. For not just being here, but for saving me. If not for you, I would have probably-" She choked.
"Well you aren't. You're alive and healthy. So let's not bother with that crap. I called your dad to let him know about how the surgery went. He said that he'll visit us tomorrow."
"Okay. Edward?"
"Hmm"
"Thank Aro for me too. I was really wrong about him."
I smiled. "That's okay. He cares about you. Hell, he threatened my head if I hurt you. So, that tells you something."
"Wow."
"That's Aro." I shrugged. "Demetri called too and said he can't wait to get you on a bike again."
Bella just laughed and then leaned further into the bed. I guess it was her nap time again. "I'll be back soon. I just have to grab a shower and dinner."
"Hmm." But she was already drifting off. I kissed her forehead tenderly and then left.
So what did you think? Now, I don't know much about medical stuff and I sucked at Biology, so just go with whatever I managed to build up about her heart conditions. Because honestly I don't think a person's heart can just be OK after six years without any medical attention. So like I said, just go with it. Review and let me know about the chapter.
