Chapter 5

The hours quickly sped by. Bella nor I felt the need to say anything. We both stared into space, our minds wandering with no thought. It was almost as if we were sleeping with our eyes open. I guess you could say it was a vampire's version of sleeping. The blue sky quickly melted into night. I looked up at Bella; her eyes were closed in pain. She already looked so different. Her perfect dark curvy hair was waving down her snowy white skin.

She was beautiful.

But not the same Bella I once knew.

Alice steadily opened the door, peaking her head inside.

Bella's body tensed from the faint squeaking. Her senses were getting stronger.

Is it ok if I come in?

I nodded in reply. She quietly danced over and sat beside me.

How is she doing?

"Not good." I said faintly. She cringed in pain at the sound of my words.

The rest of the night sped by in a haze, soon the sun beamed through the windows, filling the house with warmth.

Only two more days until this hell for Bella would be over. I rested my arms on the edge of the sofa, my head resting on top of them. She looked down at me with the same wide, chocolate orbs.

"You look bored." She said faintly. She knew me so well. "Go downstairs with your family. I'll be fine."

Although I was bored to death, I didn't want to leave her alone, I just couldn't leave her in this kind of state.

"Are you sure?" I asked.

She nodded.

"Yes, Edward. I'll be fine. If I need you I'll call you."

"I'll tell you what; I will be back in fifteen minutes, okay?"

She slowly nodded.

I headed to the door, giving her one last look. It was nice to get out of the room for awhile, but thoughts of Bella still lingered in my mind. I sat down to the piano, the ringing of the phone suddenly ripped through the sheet of silence.

I quickly ran to the phone and picked it up, knowing that Bella was in great pain from the noise.

"Hello?"

"Hello, this is Charlie Swan speaking, is this Edward?"

My stomach flipped up into my throat.

"Yes… How is your vacation going Mr. Swan?"

"It was wonderful. But they've asked us to evacuate on account of a hurricane warning. So I will be home within a few hours. I'm driving back home from an airport that's about three hours away."

I could feel my whole body tense up. How was he going to react about the transformation?

"Edward?" His voice suddenly snapping me back into reality.

"Yes?"

"May I please speak to Bella?"

"Oh, yes, hold on…"

I slowly walked back up the stairs; my stomach was flipping around constantly, banging on the walls of the rest of my insides.

I came to the door, smoothly opened it and entered.

I pressed the mouthpiece up to my shoulder.

"It's your father." I said grimly.

Her eyes widened in panic. She motioned her hand to me to give her the phone.

"Hi Dad." She said, trying to sound as though she wasn't in pain, but I could still see it in her eyes. "I'm good, just hanging out with Edward. How was your vacation?" I could see anxiety build up within of her as she bit her lip. "Oh, well that's too bad."

"Er-okay. Yeah, Edward can drop me off, I guess."

"No, that's fine."

"Okay, bye Dad." She hung up the phone.

"What are we going to do?" She asked quietly.
