I do NOT own any of the Twilight characters!!!
(This chapter is also from Lizzie's point of view!)
I awoke, dazed and disoriented, to a small white room with bright lights. My head was throbbing, my leg had a cast on it, and I had stitches all over the place. I tried to turn my head, but it hurt too much. I groaned. "Lizzie?" Jacob asked. "Jake?" I mumbled, unable to pronounce his name clearly.
He smiled. I tried to smile, too, but it hurt as well. "What happened?" I asked. I could see that Edward was cradling Bella in his arms on the couch, and everyone else was standing around, staring at Jake and I. "The Volturi didn't like that Caius shot my father and I, but they didn't approve of us killing him, either. So they sent newborns to finish us off. They stopped sending them once Alice got to Italy so she could explain everything, but they still aren't pleased." Jacob explained. "Is everyone alright?" I asked. I looked around. As far as I could see, I was the only one in a hospital bed. He nodded. "Except for you…" He frowned. "What?" I asked.
He looked into my eyes. "I just wish…that…well, that I could've done something to protect you. I didn't even pay attention until you screamed! I feel terrible…like this is my fault." I rolled my eyes.
"You had your paws full. So what? I'm ok, now." I said, shrugging. "Ow." I winced. "But-"He began.
I interrupted him. "Drop it." I demanded. He stopped talking. I ran my fingers on the new scar on my neck. It was crescent shaped. Bella held up her wrist in comparison. "We match." She giggled. Edward rolled his eyes. I sighed heavily. (Bad Idea) I winced again.
"How long have I been out?" I asked. "A few days…about 6, I think." Jacob answered, absentmindedly twirling a strand of my hair around his finger. I was going to have a lot of homework to catch up on…or maybe I could get an excuse if I told them I was attacked by ravenous vampires…It didn't seem very likely…
I was in the hospital for about a week and a half. My injuries were pretty bad. My leg was broken, I had a lot of stitches, a lot of blood loss, and of course, the bite marks on my neck.
I always knew my mom wasn't interested in me; she was always interested in my 13 year old sister, Tiffany. Tiffany was so much more girly than I was. She loved beauty pageants, and dressing up, and I loved working on cars, and wearing torn up jeans and t-shirts. When I walked in the door, my mom hadn't even noticed that I'd been gone. Jacob came in behind me. "Hey, mom." I said. "Oh, were you gone? Where to?" She asked, flipping through TV channels.
I rolled my eyes. "I was in the hospital." I told her. "Oh. Ok. Sure." She answered. "I told you she wouldn't care." I whispered to Jacob. "Mom?" She turned around. "What do you want?" She asked. "I'm sick and tired of you treating me like a piece of shit….so I'm moving in with Jacob." I told her. She stood up. "I do NOT treat you like a piece of shit! And you know what? Fine! Go move in with that man whore! You'll be pregnant within a week! And when that happens, don't come crying to me." She said, storming out of the room.
Jacob looked into my eyes. It looked like he was expecting something to happen. "What? Were you expecting me to break down crying?" I asked, arms crossed, raising one eyebrow. He sighed. "Well…kind of." He admitted. I rolled my eyes as I walked into my room and started throwing my stuff into suitcases. "So, you know I don't have a permanent residence, right?" He asked. I nodded. "I can support myself, Jake. Besides, Alice saw this coming, and she offered me the guest room at the Cullen's place." I told him.
I got all of my stuff packed and headed for the Cullen's house. When I got there, Bella was crying (as usual) Edward was holding her, but despite that, everyone else greeted me with open arms. I smiled.
Finally, a family that loved me, even though they were vampires.

So there it is. I know it's horrible, but I am really running out of ideas. So the next chapter…I think it's going to be from Jacob's point of view, and then after that, no more Jacob or Lizzie's view. I don't know who's view it'll be. It will either be Edward's or Bella's. But either way, I hope you liked it! Please be sure to check out my other Twilight series "Something to Believe in" staring Bella and Jacob, or "Our not so blissfully perfect forever" staring Renesmee and Jacob! Thanks! Please review! Peace-Love-Twilight
