AN thank you for reading! Here is the next chapter.
Bella's POV
The pain was excruciating, and the most terrifying part was I didn't know if I could handle it much longer.
Edward's POV
My Bella might not make it. how many times have I thought that this would happen, and it didn't happen and now it was happening. I tried to remind myself that she is strong, and she can make it but I didn't know for sure So what did I know? Nothing. I knew nothing.
Well, if she doesn't make it, I have no idea what I'll do. A probable fly to Italy like I did and ask for death once again but this time there will be no going back. There will be no Bella to come and save me. it would just be me and death. maybe death is the best option but I don't know she wouldn't want that for me she would want me to live my life find someone new but how could I find someone new if the only one I've ever loved is gone. If I lose Bella there will be nothing left for me. Bella is my entire existence. She is the reason I live, the reason I breathe, the reason I love.
I don't know how long I sit there for hours, minutes days I have no idea. But as I say that Carlisle walks in the room with surgical gear on, he says there was a complication with her heart and then it stopped beating. There's an ear-piercing scream coming from somewhere in the distance and it won't stop. It's then that I realized that the screeching is coming from me. My Bell is gone and there's nothing I can do. It's too late to change her, her heart is stopped. I feel Carlisle put his hand on my shoulder in the words that I always wanted to hear come out of his mouth "Edward I was able to save her without changing her." My Bella is alive. I make myself a promise right there and then as soon as I get to dee her awake, I will propose, and I will make her mine.
A few hours passed after her surgery I can finally go and see her. As I run up the stairs at vampire speed, I realize just how much it would have killed me to know that she is gone but she's not so I'm happy. After Carlisle left, I ran to the house and grab the ring that I've been keeping for her. I'm going to propose to her as soon I see these chocolate brown eyes. And then she'll be mine forever. I quickly run up to the ICU and go inside asking for her room number she's in room 133 I said thank you to the receptionist and run at human pace towards her room her door is slightly open and I push it open more to find her sitting up in bed no machines other than a heart monitor and an IV take the chair with sitting next to her bed and I sit there now that all is left to do is wait.
