To those that found my Snow White and gossip mag very ironic, I was shocked too! I wrote these chapters out last week before all this happened. Odd coincidence? Not sure really, but it's still kind of creepy...

Preciousfairymom80, you are seriously the best to me, and I love you lady. When I say there's no place like home, I mean it with your friendship being my home!

I only own the plot!


Hear Me Chapter 55

Edward was fighting to get past Eleazar to go to Bella's side, fearful that something was wrong when he heard Charlie call out, but Eleazar was not letting him pass.

"She's my mate. I have to get to her," Edward growled lowly, his mind searching the house for any hint that Bella was opening back up to him, but he got nothing from her.

"You can't go in there, not yet, Edward. Wait until her father leaves. You can't cause suspicion and give him reason to move her elsewhere; you'd lose her if that happened," Eleazar tried to reason with Edward, knowing how difficult it was to be separated from one's mate, even under the best circumstances.

"I have to, I have to," Edward pleaded with Eleazar, nearly dropping to his knees with the pain of not being able to be by Bella's side.

"I know, Edward. Trust me, I know how it is. But you have to be smart about this, responsible," Eleazar said, and the room was quiet for a moment until they heard Carlisle and Charlie speaking.

"What do you think, Dr. Cullen? What is it?" Charlie asked Carlisle.

"I think her body is finally repairing itself," Carlisle replied, and Edward let out a sigh of relief for the good news.

His Bella was ok and Edward didn't fight Eleazar to get to her side anymore. Edward had been fearful that he was losing her again, worried that she was leaving him once more and he knew that Carlisle wouldn't fight to keep her alive again. A human body could only take so much before it gave out completely, and that was what Edward was scared of the most.

It was an agonizing hour that Edward spent trapped inside of Carlisle's office with Eleazar while Carlisle, Esme, and Charlie spoke at length about Bella's chances of recovery. Carlisle explained that it seemed as if her nervous system was finally waking up after the injury had traumatized it even though a neurologist had confirmed that it was fine after her surgery.

Charlie questioned whether or not it was her mind that had caused the sudden change, that maybe it was finally coming back to life and if more would occur. It was impossible to not hear the hopefulness in his words. Carlisle placated him, telling him that it was possible, but that it was a 'wait and see' game with her now. She had shown improvement, and that was amazing in itself, but that it could be the only progress and it would be unfeasible to guarantee that more progress would occur.

Charlie finally got a call on his radio, asking him to come back to the station, and he thanked Carlisle and Esme for everything they had done so far, then kissed Bella's head and left. The moment his cruiser roared to life, Edward was around Eleazar and beside Bella a half second later, holding her hand and waiting to hear her again.


Well? There are more changes that will be happening and I hope you are all ready for them! See you next week!

Teaser:

...her shield was blocking him, keeping him at bay, so Edward sat there some more, hoping and wishing that she would come back to him soon so he could start to bring her out of whatever hell she as trapped in.
