Hospital and wanting explanations.

Elena's POV: (Opening thoughts)

So now I am stuck at the hospital, contemplating what happened in the car park. That van hit something before it hit me. Then there was the fact that Edward managed to get to me so quick.

I am sat on a hospital bed with Bella sat next to me waiting for the doctor. Tyler is in the bay next to me and his cut looks pretty serious.

"Elena, you okay?" Charlie says entering the room and walking towards us but he glares at Tyler as he passes. "You and I are gonna talk! You all right?"

Great now I have a worrying father to deal with.

"I'm fine dad," I tell him as a nurse checks my blood pressure. "Just a bit of a headache. Calm down."

I glance back at Tyler and smile apologetically.He looks guilty enough without dad causing him more grief.

"I'm sorry Elena," he says and Bella smiles at him. "I tried to stop."

"I know, it's okay," I tell him trying to make him feel better.

"No it sure as hell is not okay," Charlie says and Bella gets to her feet.

"Dad," she says placing her hand on his shoulder. "This is not helping at all."

"It wasn't his fault," I say trying to help my twin.

"You could've been killed," he points out to me patting Bella's hand and she removes it. "You know that?"

If it weren't for the barrier... then I probably would've been.

"Yes," I practically whisper. "But I wasn't... so."

"You can kiss license goodbye," she tells us.

A very pale doctor, who with the complexion and the eyes has to be Dr. Cullen, enters the room. He straight away approaches me. "I hear the chief's daughter is here."

Charlie and he greet each other.

I share a glance with Bella as Charlie turns to the nurse.

"I've got this one Jackie," he tells her taking my chart.

"Elena," he says and I nod at him,

"Yep Elena," I say to him.

"Okay Elena looks like you took quite the spill," he tells us as he pulls out his light. "How do you feel?"

"Just a bit of a headache," I tell him as my head is still aching a little.

"Lookhere," He raises his finger and moves it as he shines the light in my eyes. "You might experience some post-traumatic stress or disorientation. But your vitals look good and we can give you some painkillers for your head. I think you'll be just fine."

"I'm so sorry Elena," Tyler begins but before he can say much else, Charlie closes the curtain around my bed so we cannot see him.

I glance at him and then Bella before turning to doctor Cullen.Maybe I imagined the barrier but I still know someone who saved me from serious injuries."You know, it would have been a lot worse if Edward wasn't there. He knocked me out of the way."

"Edward?" Charlie figures out who I am talking about. "Your boy?"

"When did he even get there?" Bella asks confused.

"Yeah it was amazing," I tell him and Dr. Cullen seems a little uncomfortable. "I mean he got to me so fast. He was nowhere near me."

Dr. Cullen does not look at me at first and when he does he still looks like he is hiding something. "Sounds like you were very lucky."

He says his goodbyes.

After I am given some painkillers we head out of the room. Charlie turns to us.

"I've gotta go sign some paperwork," he tells us both. "You should... you should probably call your mum."

I glare at him as I feel Bella's smirk on the back of my head. "Did you tell her? She's probably just... freaking out."

"Fifteen kids that saw what happened," I hear a voice say and I look around the corner with Bella to see Carlisle, Rosalie and Edward Cullen arguing over what happened. "

"What was I supposed to do, then?" I hear Edward say and I stay to listen. Bella stays at my side. "Let her die?"

"This isn't just about you," Rosalie points out. "It's about all of us."

Carlisle spots me and tries to break up the argument. "I think we should take this in my office."

All three now realise I am there. Rosalie does not look happy.

"Can I talk to you for a minute?" I ask Edward and Bella pats my shoulder.

"I drove the truck here," she says to me. "I'll wait in there for you."

Carlisle drags Rose away as Bella leaves, nodding at Edward as she passes and she heads out. I stand waiting for Edward with my back against the wall. He finally is there.

"What?" He asks sounding a little worried.

I turn to look at him and keep my eyes lined with his.I need to make sure he is telling the truth.

"How..." I begin trying to find the right words. "How did you get over to me so fast?"

"I was standing right next to you Elena," he informs me.

He must think I'm an idiot."No... you were stood near your car. Across the car lot."

"No I wasn't," he says scoffing.

"Yes you were" I say beginning to lose my temper. I have enough to figure out without him adding to the problem.If that barrier is real... and I didn't imagine it... then what was it.

"Elena... you're... uh," he says picking his words carefully. "You hit your head."

"Don't," I snap and he cuts short. "I know what I saw and I do not like being called a liar. I know what I saw!"

His face turns into a frown. "And what exactly was that?"

"You stopped the van," I glare at him as he is pissing me off now. "You pushed it away with your hand."

"Well nobody's gonna believe you so..." he tells me.

I look at him in confusion.Does he think I'd tell people.

"I wasn't going to tell anybody," I inform him staring right into his eyes. "I just want to know the truth."

"Can't you just thank me and get over it," he advises me and this is turning into an argument.

"Thank you," I say trying to make my voice sound more polite.

"You're not gonna let this go are you?" He asks.

He already knows the answer to this.

"Nope," I say storming away from him as I try to calm down.

"Well thenI hope you enjoy disappointment," he yells after me and then I turn to see him storming the other way.

That night I am sat in my room trying to figure out what stopped that truck when there is a knock on my door.

"Yeah," I say and Bella walks into the room and sits beside me on the bed.

"You okay?" She asks me.

"No," I say to her and she puts her arm around my shoulders. "I think I am going crazy."

"What do you mean?" She asks.

I go through everything I saw from the moment we split. She seems to get more confused by the second.

"Okay..." she begins slowly. "Maybe the trucks clashed and thats what you saw stop it from hitting you the first time?"

"Yeah maybe," I partially agree. "But what about Edward?"

"I got nothing for that," she says getting back to her feet. "Ask him when you see him tomorrow! Love you!"

"Love you too," I tell her before laying down as she leaves the room.

I fall asleep not long after.

I sit up suddenly. I'm sure I'd seen someone in my room. I turn my light on but there is no one there. But I know I'd thought I'd seen someone. I scoff.Maybe I am going crazy.

And that's the first dream I ever had of Edward Cullen. But I need to get my sleep as I've got the school trip tomorrow.
