(A/N: hey you guys! I have gotten some emails and reviews saying that you don't get the weak point from Tanya so I'm going to explain…you see everyone has a weak point. Mine is the small of my back. *askie sage you know this* so then I thought since some blondes are over obsessed with their hair….note: I said some blondes…. Why not make Tanya's weak point her head since most people have hair on their head! On to the story!)

Chapter 19: awake and healing

Edward's POV:

I pulled my face up from the covers that wrapped around Bella and smiled….well…grinned is more like it.

"Bella!" I rejoiced.

She was alive! She wasn't going to die!

"Mmmm….where am I?"

"You're at my house love." I said, letting all my love and adoration pour into my voice. Could she hear it?

"oh." She just said simply.

Oh? What could 'oh' mean?

I sat down next to her to her on the bed. "are you alright?"

She nodded, staying silent. How I wish I could hear her thoughts!

"Love, you need to be more careful when you go outside! I could have lost you! I would never survive without you." I said trying to be urgent and gentle at the same time. "Why did you go out in the first place?"

I could see the tears coming to the rim of her eyes. I wanted to kick myself. How can I make this beautiful angel cry? What did she do wrong to cry?

Nothing!

That was the answer, nothing!

"I left because I saw you kissing Tanya." She said in a broken whisper.

She looked down while I stared at her.

"Love, she attacked me! I could not do anything about it!"

She turned her face back to me. Her eyes were now angry and not hurt. "Did you really try Edward? Did you really? Or did you just let her kiss you and forget all about your fiancé that was waiting for you downstairs."

I was speechless.

"Never Bella. Never."

She just stared at me.

I sighed. How could I help her understand that Tanya, the evil spawn of the devil, had attacked me?

I bent over and said softly, "I would never, ever cheat on you." I bent over and pressed my lips to hers softly.

She responded automatically.

I chuckled and pulled away before I lost all sense of control.

"Do you believe me?" I asked praying to whatever unknown god was out there that she did.

She nodded and smiled that beautiful angelic smile of hers.

I grinned in return to her.

She believed me. She believed me! Oh how did I deserve this angel from heaven!

I didn't.

That was the million dollar answer. I didn't. But, if she wanted me to stay, then I would stay. I am much, much, much too selfish to go away.

"How did I get here?" her melodic voice said.

I caressed her cheek. "I brought you here after I found you in the snow. Tanya tried to stop me but your brother knocked her out."
she frowned. "I didn't think that it was possible to knock out vampires." She said confusion lacing her tone.

I chuckled. "I didn't either, but about a mile from here, Tanya is on the snow ground floor."

"Hmmm…" she said frowning more.

I couldn't resist anymore. I smoothed out her frown so that she wouldn't be anymore.

Angels shouldn't frown.

"We'll ask him when he gets here." I said softly to make her relax.

She relaxed against me. "Thank you." I heard her murmur.

"for what?" I asked, baffled.

"for saving my life." She murmured

I turned her face towards me, and spoke softly. "I will always be there to save you. Even when you are immortal I will always be there to help when you are in pain."

'always' I added silently.

She smiled and snuggled into my chest where she fell asleep as I sang her lullaby.
