"Everything looks great, Isabella." Dr. Stevenson says looking at my most recent X-rays.
It's been two weeks since I was attacked and today is my last appointment with Dr. Stevenson so I can get the all clear. These last two weeks have been crazy. A few days after the attack, I was called into the police station to ID the men who attacked me. Apparently they found them all in an alley in Port Angeles. They were all dead. I know that it was Edward, but we never talked about it. I don't want to know the details. He did what he had to do as my mate, and I respect that. I'm even happy that he did. My dad was so worried about finding those men and now he doesn't have to worry at all. After I went to the police station, I came home to find Edward in my room. He looked at me with sadness and nervousness in his eyes. I just pulled him into my arms and held him. We never said another word about it.
Today, I had to leave school early so that I could get to my appointment in Port Angeles on time. My dad is with me and insisted Edward go to school today; therefore Edward is anxiously sitting by the phone waiting to hear that I'm okay. I've been hoping that the doctor would tell me that everything is okay.. I'll be happy when I don't have to be so careful when I'm sleeping or brushing my teeth. I also am worried about Edward. He hasn't hunted since the attack and his eyes are completely black. He won't even go hunt animals close to Forks. He refuses to leave me. I understand that he is scared because of what happened the last time he was gone but he needs to eat. We made a deal that if the doctor gave me the all clear today, he would have to go hunting. Don't get me wrong, I hate being away from him, but I would rather be in pain than let him be in pain.
"Great, so I'm healed?" I ask him.
"Well it will be a little while before you are completely healed, but the bones are still set correctly and have healed considerably. I think you are fine to go back to your normal activities."
"That's great thank you."
"No problem. Now have you been having any problems from your other injuries?"
"Nope. I still get an ache in my tailbone sometimes but not often. The cut on my head healed fine after you took the stitches out. I haven't been having any headaches or dizziness from the concussion, and my ribs are completely fine."
"Well then Isabella I think you are good to go. If you will just give this to the nurse, you can be on your way." He tells me and hands me my appointment summary.
"Thank you doctor" my dad says, standing and shaking his hand.
"Not a problem Chief Swan. Take care of yourself Isabella." He says before leaving.
"Well I say we go out to celebrate, Bells." Dad says.
"Do I get to pick?" I ask excited.
"Yep." He says.
"Yes! Mexican food!" I tell him and he laughs.
I finally have been able to have real food for the past few days and I have been eating enough for 4 people. I've been going through countries and I have yet to hit Mexico. We've eaten food from Italy, China, Japan, France, and classic American. Now it's time to have some chips and salsa. We're going to need a giant to go box.
"Alright Bells we'll head straight there from here since we're already in Port Angeles." He tells me and we go to checkout at the nurses station.
In the car, I can finally call Edward. He answers on the first ring.
Hi, sweetheart. How did it go? What did he say?
"He said that I"m fine. I have the all clear to go back to normal, and guess what!"
What? he says as he laughs at my excitement.
"Dad's taking me to get Mexican food! I'm so excited. Real food!"
He starts laughing loudly and the sound makes me smile. His laugh is beautiful.
I'm very happy for you, love. So I'll see you when you get home?
"Yeah I'll see you then" I tell him discreetly glancing over at my dad.
Okay enjoy your dinner. I love you.
"I love you too Edward." I tell him and hang up.
"We're here Bells." My dad says putting the car in park.
We're at a giant building with the name Caliente on the front flashing in big red and green letters.
"Let's go!" I say and jump out of the car.
"Oh boy" I hear my dad grumble behind me. He's about to see something real special.
I feel like I ate an entire cow. I swear I went up at least 2 pants sizes. We pull up to our house and I'm pretty sure my dad is going to have to roll me out of the car.
"You okay there Bells?" he asks me smirking.
"Unggn" I grunt and he busts out laughing.
"I told you not to order that second entree. Come on you can sleep it off." He tells me before coming around to open my door and carrying my to go boxes (yes plural) inside.
Immediately I start heading upstairs. I know Edward is here.
"I'm going to go do homework before I go to bed, dad. I'll come back down before I go to sleep." I yell to him over my shoulder.
I feel like a slug as I'm moving up the stairs. Once I get to my room I quickly (for a slug) move inside and close the door behind me. There's my angel sitting on my bed smirking at me. He really is too beautiful for it to be fair.
"Hello beautiful" he says to me. Apparently he likes slugs.
"Hey," I mumble and fall face first into my bed.
"What's wrong?" He asks.
"I aaaa oooo muu." I mumble into my pillow.
"Um in English please." He says
Lifting my head I say "I ate too much." And let my face fall back to my pillow.
His laughter shakes my bed, but I ignore him.
"I'm sorry, love." He says still chuckling.
"It's okay." I tell him rolling over onto my back and looking up at him, "I'm starting to feel a little better."
"Good" he tells me running his finger lightly down my face.
"So let's talk about this weekend" he says after a minute.
"Okay."
"Well it's going to be sunny tomorrow, so I thought I could go hunting. Then the family is all going hunting this weekend. So if I go hunting tomorrow, I can be back by the next day, Friday, and then we would have the whole weekend to ourselves. Maybe you could even tell Charlie you're staying with Alice, and you could stay the night with me."
"Three days just the two of us?" I practically squeal out.
"Well only if that's what you want. If not, we can work something else out."
"Of course that's what I want." I shriek and throw my arms around his neck. 'This will be perfect."
"Good" he says putting his arms around me and letting us fall so we're laying on our sides. "I'll ask Alice to talk to Charlie. Now that means I have to leave tonight after you fall asleep so that I can be back by tomorrow night."
"Oh"
I hadn't thought of that. I must be frowning and pouting because he runs his finger across my bottom lip.
"You know what that pout does to me, love. You stick it out there, and I might have to do something with it." He says.
"Maybe I would like that." I tell him and lean up to take his mouth with mine. The kiss is heated and wet. Our tongues are tangled together and our lips are moving in sync. He sucks my bottom lip into his mouth and runs his silky tongue along it, and I moan. Gripping his hair in my hands, I pull and he groans right back. I move my kisses down to his neck so that I can breathe and I lick and nibble all over his neck. I can't get enough of him.
"God Bella. You're driving me crazy." He groans and I hum in reply.
He runs his hands under my shirt and along my back as he takes my mouth again.
"Jesus you taste good." I tell him and he smiles.
When his hands finally make it to my breasts, he takes them into his hands and squeezes gently. I moan into his mouth and he freezes.
"Love, we're getting carried away. I think we need to stop. I don't want our first time to be with Charlie down the hall."
I just nod at him but I can't stop looking at his lips. God the things I want them to do to me. Suddenly he moans and his mouth is back on mine, and he rolls us over so he's on top of me. He reaches up and rips his shirt off so that I can touch him. His body is perfection. Running my fingers down his back, I find the dimples on either side of his spine above his hips. When I scratch my nails over them he moans and bucks his hips into me. God that feels good. I break away from his mouth to take my shirt off quickly. When I lean up to kiss him, he leans away looking at the newly exposed skin.
"You're so beautiful, love. I'm in awe of you." He whispers and I blush.
"Bells! I put your leftovers in the fridge. Do you want a tums or something?" Charlie yells from outside my door. In literally a blink of an eye, Edward is gone and I have my shirt in my hands.
"Hold on dad." I yell back throwing my shirt on quickly and patting my hair down. My government textbook is on the floor next to the bed so I pick it up and turn to a random page. "Come in."
"Hey you feeling better?" he asks coming in and sitting on the foot of my bed. I can't help but think that a half naked Edward was just there.
"Yeah a little bit."
"Good. I'm heading to bed. I have to be at the station early tomorrow. Go to sleep once your homework's finished Bell, I mean it. No talking on the phone to Edward all night." He tells me sternly.
"Okay dad, I promise." Technically I'm not lying. We won't be talking on the phone.
"Alright. Night Bells." He tells me leaning forward and kissing my forehead.
"Goodnight dad." I tell him as he leaves my room shutting the door behind him.
"Edward!" I hiss. "Where are you?"
"Right here, love" he says coming out of the closet.
"Oh. Very nice." I tell him nodding towards the closet.
"I thought so. Now you see why we can't get carried away with Charlie in the next room."
"Yeah, we'll just have to wait until we're alone."
He just nods in reply.
"You need to go to sleep love, I'll stay for awhile." He says crawling in bed with me. He's still gloriously shirtless and I take full advantage of it. Laying my head on his chest, I run my fingers all over his muscles.
"You can't even imagine how that feels, love. It's like little flames along my skin."
I pull back. "It feels like I'm burning you?" I ask horrified.
"No" he says pulling my hands back "its just because of our temperature difference. It feels amazing. It's like I'm dead and your touch is bringing me back to life." He sighs and I just smile into his chest.
"When do you think you'll be back tomorrow?" I ask him after a few minutes.
"Probably really late. You'll be in bed." He says.
"Will you wake me when you come in?"
"If you want me to, of course I will."
"I want you to."
"Okay" he says simply. "Go to sleep love. I'll see you tomorrow night."
"Okay I love you. I'll miss you."
"I'll miss you too and I love you too. More than anything." He tells me running his fingers through my hair while I doze off.
