CHAPTER 26
As I had a heart beat and bled from the thumb prick I was let go and I met Bella out the front of the building sucking on her thumb like I wanted to do but it would look a bit wimpy if I did that and it wouldn't improve my image of a tough as nails mafia soldier. So I just shook my hand a little before taking hold of Bella's hand and leading her to Jacob's car.
"Thank you for your cooperation. Have a safe trip and some advice I would not come back here until the invasion is over." Aro suggested kindly.
"Warning heeded, sir" I told him truthfully as I assisted Bella in her seat and then hurried to mine I started the car and drove it through the checkpoint and away from that horrid area.
I noticed Bella was sleeping again. This had me worried but I put it at the back of my head and concentrated on finding us a place to sleep for a while maybe a few days
I pulled into the Holiday Inn at Wichita and left Bella in the car while I booked us a room with two beds that had a bath. As I was selecting the room I saw the room service menu so I looked at it and picked a few small things that would not go bad if we didn't eat them straight away.
I drove the car back closer to our room and parked in its allocated spot. I got out of the car and opened our door making sure it was wedged open then I ran to the left bed to pull the covers down; then I went back to the car and very carefully opened the car door that Bella's head was resting on.
I successfully got the door open and Bella into my arms; I carried her bridal style and placed her softly on the bed she started to make panicky noises so I quickly caressed her hair which settled her down.
I got my phone out to ring Emmett
"Hi, Em, how are things in Seattle" I asked him
"It's good, we have had some run ins with the Hunter family. Have you got the princess?"
"Yeah I got her, we are staying a few days in Wichita; before we fly to Seattle" I told him
"Edward you are in Hunter territory. I would suggest you stay in your room and get everything delivered."
"Will do Emmett" I said hanging up and walking over to the door as coincidently there was a knock on it. Opened the door and a attendant pushed the room service trolley in the room and he turn and left shutting the door on his way out.
I walked over to it and picked up a bottle of coke; after cracking it open and took a long drink from it. I looked over at Bella; she would need some new clothes very soon. I had to think where would deliver clothes to Wichita in Kansas, as I was drawing a blank, I knew Alice would be able to help me so I gave her a call.
