Chapter 28: Missing Girl
Bella's POV
Something really bad was happening. I could feel it deep within my soul. My little girl was in danger and there was nothing that I could do about it. When she left I tried to go after her but I was still too weak to do anything about it. Then the family, the Cullens, Edward. They were all in danger. I had absolutely no idea what was happening and that was driving me crazy.
Suddenly there was a strong pain in my stomach. I hadn't felt a pain this bad since I had given birth to my kids. I yelled out in pain.
"Mom what's wrong?!" Both of my boys looked alarmed. I couldn't speak though because the pain was that bad.
"Mom?" Anthony signed to me.
The cramping in my stomach wasn't stopping. I tried to stand up but the pain was making it difficult. I felt something wet between my legs. It reminded me of when I had my period. Which couldn't be possible since I was pregnant again according to the doctors. Unless I was about to miscarry.
The thought of that happening scared me. It didn't matter to me that this baby had been conceived in rape. My boys had been conceived in rape and I loved them just as much as I loved my daughter. I already loved this baby as much as I loved my other children. I didn't want to lose this baby.
I had to get help immediately. I needed Carlisle but they were all out fighting the Volturi right now. The pain wasn't easing up though. I held onto my stomach as if that would somehow stop what was happening.
"Mom I'm going to go get help," Jr. said before taking off. I couldn't do anything to stop him.
Perhaps it was all the stress finally getting to me. All the stress with everything that has been going on. It was starting to affect my health and my baby's health. There was not much that I could do though. I couldn't do anything as long as I was human. I'm not even sure that there was much I could do if I were a vampire. This entire situation was out of my control.
The only thing that I could really do was stay here, hoping and praying, that somehow everything would turn out okay. My children just running off to God only knows where didn't help much either. At least Anthony stayed at my side.
"I don't know what's wrong with her. She just nearly fell over in pain," I heard Jr. say before coming in. Thank God one of my kids was back.
Next thing I know Edward is running toward me. Alarm written all over his face. "Bella what's wrong?"
"The baby," my breathing was starting to sound labored.
"Carlisle!" Edward shouted. Shouting wasn't necessary for vampires. Which is how I knew that Edward was freaking out.
Carlisle was at my side in an instant.
"Bella?" he questioned.
"Baby. Pain," were the only words I could manage to get out.
Carlisle helped me lay down on the floor and began to examine me as best as he could without his medical equipment. Thankfully a lot of his medical equipment was really just for show and he didn't need it thanks to his enhanced senses.
The rest of the family followed in quickly. Esme gasped when she saw me. She looked more worried than I had ever seen her look before. As did the rest of the family. My family. After everything that I had done. After all the pain that I caused I was surprised that they even cared about me. I would've deserved and completely understood if they hated me. Yet there love for me had remained the same, if not only grown stronger, over the years.
"Bella," Carlisle's voice broke me out of my reverie. "I'm sorry,"
"Sorry? What doee that mean?"
"You are about to miscarry this baby and there is nothing I can do to stop it,"
"Why?" I cried.
"I don't know," he answered honestly. "It could be any number of things reallh. If I had to guess I would say that it was stress. All of this stress isn't good for you or the baby. The stress is most likely what causes you to miscarry. I'm sorry,"
I stayed silent.
"I can help you be as comfortable as you can be but the rest is out of my hands,"
"What happened with the Volturi?"
"It was very strange," Edward said. "They just left without an explanation. Aro was hiding something. He was able to block me out of his thoughts so I have no idea what happened,"
"I didn't see anything either," added Alice.
"Something very strange is happening here," Esme said. "The way they just left like that was weird,"
"Where is Renesmee?" Edward asked.
"She ran off,"
"She what?!"
"I don't know why she did it. She didn't say anything. She just took off,"
"That girl," Edward seethed. "I swear she's going to be the death of me,"
"Edward you go look for her," Carlisle said. "You Esme, Alice, Jasper, Emmett, and Rosalie go look for Nessie. Search the entire island for her. I will stay with Bella and make sure she's okay,"
Oh God I wasn't sure how much more of this stress I could take. I watched as Edward and the others left. I hoped they would find my daughter and bring her back home.
"Everything will be okay Bella,"
I sighed. "Carlisle can I ask you something?"
"Of course. What do you need?"
"How can you still care about me after what all the pain I caused?"
"Because you're family that's why. Esme and I have always considered you to be our daughter. The others consider you to be a sister. You are family. We forgave you a long time ago. We were just worried because we had no idea what happened to you,"
"You forgave me?"
"Of course," Carlisle smiled warmly at me. "You're home now and that's all that matters. You're back with us where you belong. I have faith that everything will be okay in the end,"
"Are you sure?"
"Of course I am. Now rest Bella. You need it,"
"She's gone!" I heard Esme shout outside. "Carlisle our granddaughter is missing!"
"What?!"
"We searched the whole island for her!" Edward yelled. Sounding just as panicked. "Nessie isn't anywhere on the island. Shes vanished!"
What?! My girl was missing?!
Suddenly my vision went black.
