Chapter 26: Over Worked
Bella's POV
Three Months Later
"Come on Bella!" Emmett yelled.
"Cant... Breathe... Must... Stop..." I gasped stopping and putting my hands on both knees.
"No stopping! Keep going!" He yelled.
I gasped for air that wasn't enough.
"Come on! Little bit more." He said motivating me.
"Ugh!" I said starting to run again.
Emmett ran backwards as I ran towards him, my whole body ached and I couldn't breathe. We got in front of the house where the whole family was out in the yard, Emmett stopped running, I wasn't even close to him.
"Come on Bella! Pick the pace up!" Emmett yelled.
"You better not be pushing her too hard Emmett!" Edward yelled.
I sped up until I finally reached Emmett, he held both hands up and I gave him a high five. I bent over gasping for air, Emmett helped me sit down on the curb. It hurt to even breathe, I placed a hand on my chest closing my eyes, Emmett chuckled. Edward came over and sat on the other side of me, I looked at him and smiled a little.
"You pushed her way to hard Emmett, she can barely breathe!" Edward snapped.
"Relax Edward. It's normal, if she wants to lose the baby weight she's going to have to work hard." Emmett told him.
They continued to argue, I tried to reason with him but he wasn't listening to me. I gave up and went inside, I sighed opening the refrigerator for water but found none.
"Hey Bella." Emmett said walking in the kitchen.
"Hey." I said starting to catch my breath finally.
"You wanna play a joke on Edward?" He asked.
"What kind of joke?" I asked suspicious.
"You know, fake passing out." He said.
"Emmett. That's not funny." I told him.
"So? It's funny to me." He said.
"And when Edward gets mad at me?" I asked.
"Oh he'll get over it." He told me.
"I don't know Emmett." I said slowly.
"Come on! A little prank wont hurt!" He said.
I sighed, "Why do I let you talk me into this stuff."
Ten minutes later we were standing in the living room, the plan was for me to just fall to the ground and don't move. He was going to run outside where Edward was and yell that I had just collapsed randomly and the fun would begin. I didn't like this idea, I wanted to back out of it. I felt really thirsty, light headed and sort of dizzy. I closed my eyes trying to focus on what we were going to do.
"Ready?" Emmett asked.
I nodded, I was feeling really funny, like maybe this wasn't going to be a joke, that it was going to be real. I stumbled forward a little before everything went black.
Edward's POV
"EDWARD!" Emmett yelled.
I looked up to the porch to see Emmett standing in the doorway. I looked at Esme and Rose confused.
"What?!" I asked.
"It's Bella! She passed out!" He yelled.
My heart stopped. I ran for the house the second his sentence left his mouth, I ran inside to see Bella laying in the middle of the floor. Carlisle was the next one in, followed by the rest of the family. Carlisle checked her pulse before shaking her a bit. Emmett began to laugh, I shot him a look, why would he be laughing?
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" I snapped.
"Go on and wake up Bella." He said.
"What?" Alice asked.
"It's a joke! We wanted to freak you all out." Emmett said laughing.
"What?!" I asked.
"Come on Bella, wake up!" Emmett said.
"I don't think she's faking it..." Carlisle said softly sighing.
"What?!" Emmett and I asked at the same time.
"She really passed out." He said.
I stoked Bella's pale cheek, her breathing was slow but steady, I looked up at Carlisle.
"Is she okay?" I asked worried.
"She's fine, it's probably from working out so hard and not drinking any water before or after." He explained.
I was beyond angry, but I tried to control it.
"Take her up to the bedroom and lay her on your bed." Carlisle told me.
"Shouldn't we go to the hospital?" I asked.
"No, she'll wake up." He told me.

Bella's POV
I stirred before slowly opening my eyes, I sat up slowly rubbing my head. I felt extremely dizzy and tired, I pushed the covers off of me as I heard laughter coming from downstairs. I got off the bed holding onto different things to support me. I walked downstairs slowly finding no one in the living room I walked over to the kitchen door dragging my feet. I pushed the door open to find everyone eating supper, the door swung shut behind me causing everyone to look.
"Bella." Edward said getting up from his chair.
He came over to me and hugged me, he pulled back and looked at me.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"Yeah, a little dizzy and tired." I told him.
"Maybe you should go lay down." He said rubbing my arms.
"I'm fine." I told him.
Edward took my hand and led me to the living room where we didn't have the whole family looking and listening to us. We sat down on the couch, I rested my head on his shoulder still holding on to his hand.
"Emmett over worked you." He said.
"Edward. Can we just drop it please? I knew what I was getting into, so please." I said.
"Okay, I'm sorry." He told me.
"Where's Natalie?" I asked.
"Upstairs." He said.
I nodded, I didn't even look to see if she was in the crib.
A Couple Days Later:
Edward pushed me against the wall roughly, he ripped my shirt off and threw it to the floor before attacking my neck. I gasped for air digging my nails in his back as anticipation grew, this was going to be the first time since Natalie was born. He moved up and attacked my lips as he unbuttoned his pants kicking them off. Just as he was about to remove my pants Natalie started to cry, I groaned as Edward kept on kissing me roughly.
"Edward." I gasped pushing him away.
"What?" He asked going back to attacking my neck.
"Natalie... She's... Crying..." I gasped.
"She'll stop in a minute." He told me his hands going for my pants.
"No, I have to go... Feed her." I said with my eyes closed.
Edward ignored me and proceeded to take my pants off, I pushed him away for good this time. He groaned as I buttoned up my pants and threw my shirt back on.
"Bella." He sighed as I walked towards the door.
"Our baby is crying Edward!" I said.
I walked into the nursery turning on the light, I screamed when I saw someone standing there. I set a hand on my chest when I saw it was only Jasper.
"God, scare the living crap out of me!" I said shaking my head.
He laughed, "Is she hungry?"
"She should be." I said getting the things to make her a bottle.
"What was the huge thump?" Jasper asked.
I was glad that my back was towards him cause I was blushing extremely.
"Oh, it was nothing. Something just hit the wall." I said holding back a laugh.
"Could that something be you?" He asked.
"Jazz!" I scolded.
He chuckled quietly, "Hey, just saying."
"Yeah right." I said handing him the bottle.
"Awww, your blushing!" He said.
"I hate this family! So much!" I said before leaving the room laughing.
I walked into the bedroom to find Edward asleep, I sighed before going into the bathroom. I striped down and turned the water on, I turned it as hot as I could without burning myself and stepped in. I let the water wet my hair as I closed my eyes. I wasn't ten minutes into my shower when I saw the door open. I was about to scream, but then I saw that it was just Edward. He closed the door behind him before grabbing my shampoo, I turned around so that my back was facing him. He massaged the shampoo into my scalp before making sure it got in all my hair. I washed out the shampoo looking at him smiling, he was looking at me with a smile on his face. The next thing I knew I was pinned against the wall to the shower being attacked with his lips, and one thing led to another...
I know, it's short, but I wanted to get a chapter up so you guys didn't think I just stopped writing... Any ideas on what's going to happen next? Review and let me know what you think will happen =P
