A/N: Okay, fastest update ever! This one was a matter of hours! Hope you like it!

The nurse had left while I was talking to Edward.
Good riddance.
I hung up the phone and tried not to fall asleep, or look at the many IVs and cords that I was hooked up to. They grossed me out.
The doctor came in then.
"Good news! You don't have to worry about slipping into a coma when you go to sleep anymore! So I'm going to give you some sleep medication and some more pain meds and you'll be asleep and painless in no time!"
Painless? I not in pain now…what have they given me?
I never asked her. Though I will say she was an improvement over the rude nurse, even if she was a little too peppy for my taste.
She hooked the things up to the one of the IVs and left the room.
I'm not sure I needed the sleep meds, because I was asleep way before they should have kicked in.
I woke up to blinding, searing pain all up my spine. I couldn't move. I must have screamed because the doctor came running.
"The morphine must have worn off already! Oh, dear, she's becoming immune to it so soon!"
Morphine? They were giving me morphine! Great.
"Here's some more morphine sweety, we'll have to come up with another pain med. It shouldn't have worn off that fast. It was only your second dose! Have you had it before?"
"No,"
"Oh, dear."
She's way too peppy for her own good.
"Your doctor from Washington called, or rather, one of his assistants, it was a woman…"
Alice.
"…they'll be here in an hour or so, so you just get rested all up so you can be all awake when they get here. Then we can decide whether you'll stay here, or if we'll transport you back there, it depends on your condition. You're a very lucky girl to have a doctor who cares enough to come all the way down here just to see you."
I know I am, but they just don't want to see me dead, it would kill Edward, Alice said so herself… "Do you think any of us want to look into his eyes for the next hundred years if he loses you?" ...if he had just hurried up and changed me, we wouldn't have this problem!
The pain meds kicked in.
The sleep meds kicked in after that.
We arrived in Phoenix around 5:00 in the afternoon. Two hours after Carlisle had received the call. During the ride, we called Esme to tell her what was going on. Then, Carlisle called Charlie to tell him what happened. Charlie almost flew down to Phoenix himself, but Carlisle promised that he would see that Bella was okay. I didn't pay too much attention, I was too busy asking Alice if she had seen anything else.
Phoenix is always sunny, and we were not disappointed.
