Anger boiled within me. Did she think that leaving would solve everyone's problems? "Leaving is NOT going to do anything." My teeth stayed slammed together. "Do you think that if you leave Rosalie and I will get back together?" Bella nodded unsurely. "Well you're wrong!" I roared. "Because I only love one person, and that person is you. And if you won't let me love you then I refuse to love anyone else."
Bella smiled sadly, and I knew that our love was still true, even if it was deep down inside. "You'll get over me." She said and I shook my head quickly. "Years would go by and you'd learn to live. What difference would it make anyway? Me being a 30-year-old women with a 24-year-old guy? I don't think so." My head shot up. If that's what I had to do to get her back then I would.
"No one said that you had to grow old while I stay young." She gripped the table in shock, falling against the table. "Bella? Bella?" I called, as she didn't stir. What had I done now?
"Someone call an ambulance!" I yelled in panic, I had caused this again. What if Bella didn't wake? What if she was dead? There was scurrying movement around me as someone flipped open a cell phone. I pulled my love into my arms and held her tightly against my chest. "Bella Sweetie, please, wake up? I need you." I whispered into her skin. My façade was breaking, I knew that I was millimeters away from having a break down. Edward ran into the restaurant glaring at me.
"See what you've done now? Can you ever just shut up? Take her to the hospital you idiot, it's faster." My eyes narrowed, why was he being so…evil…and…jealous. I knew that he still loved Bella, but it still hurt to realize it.
"Right." I cleared my throat, walking slowly towards the door, my brain in a haze. Everything around me was unimportant now.
"Hurry UP stupid!" Edward prodded, abusively. Anger boiled within me.
"SHUT UP EDWARD!" I slammed the door of my car shut and sped towards the hospital. "Bella what have I done?" I closed my eyes briefly, wishing for the tears that would never come. "Please?" The beat of her heart was getting fainter by the second. I pushed down hard on the pedal, zooming through a red light. I could hear the police on my tail, shouting for me to stop, but nothing was important, only Bella. If she died she would take my heart with her…but she couldn't die.I heard the voice screaming through the megaphone.
"CULLEN! SLOW THE CAR DOWN NOW! I CAN HAVE YOU IN JAIL! NOW!" My eyes widened, I still didn't care…but the voice…the voice was familiar. It was Charlie. I screeched to a halt in front of the emergency room doors.
"NURSE! NURSE! HELP SOMEONE!" I roared, my voice hoarse and cracking. I ran to a halt at the desk.
"Again?" A young girl, 16 or 17 groaned. "God." She muttered. I found myself screaming in her face.
"DO YOU WANT ME TO SUE YOUR ASS OFF FOR LETTING AN INNOCENT GIRL DIE?" Sobs shook my chest as the pulse slowed…thump……..thump……
Her eyes watered, "No, no." She fumbled for a clipboard. "Just take her here, a Doctor should be there shortly.
"Is Carlisle Cullen available?" Edward questioned, his voice coming out like velvet honey…how could he still have the guts to dazzle someone when something THIS big was happening.
"N-no. Dr. S-Salz." I gave a brisk nod and followed her through the white double doors. I felt a pressure within me..deep down, what if she really DIDN'T survive? I held Bella to me, while glancing at her pale white face. She always had been paler than everyone else…almost like a vampire. Bella's brown hair, the beautiful silky hair hung loosely, it shone in the sun, just like ours. Why hadn't I reacted sooner? How could I let this happen?
"Emmett." Edward growled. "Stop. She's going to live." He said through a tight fake smile.
"You can do that." I whispered, realization hitting me. "Why are you here? Just leave Edward. You don't care… You took her away from me, why didn't you just try to make her happy in the first place?"
"If I recall correctly," Edward spoke fiercely. "YOU kissed Rosalie. And YOU broke her heart."
"But that was not my fault and it was only because YOU hit her and couldn't love her properly. And YOU also broke her heart, at least I didn't do it on purpose."
Edward's face crumpled, but I felt no remorse. "I didn't hit her, I just yelled…a lot…and I didn't hurt her on purpose, I never would or will."
"Hem hem. Gentleman." A short Doctor stumbled in, his hair in a real messy disarray. The real bags under his eyes were darker than mine, how could that be possible? "Let's see this sick patient." There were smiles playing on the ends of his thin mustache.
"What's so funny?" I glowered, slowly lifting Bella onto the bed. His face changed in shock.
"She's not well?" He pulled on his stetiscope (thingy to check the heart)
"Of course not you Dimbob. What did you think she was? Rolling and laughing in the mud?" The words escaped my mouth before I could encase them.
"Well…umm…" He scratched his head, sending dandruff to the ground. "I thought that it wasn't true. Miss Swan seems to be "sick" a lot." I crossed my arms, my muscles tightening into my shirt. He got closer to my only reason for staying alive. "Her hearts slowing." He whispered.
"I know." I murmured, avoiding his eyes. The white walls were creeping towards us, time was running out. He knew it, I knew it and Edward knew it.
"I can try…" Dr. Salz voice trailed off. He turned away from us, pulling out medical cords from the drawer. He pressed two little suction cups near Bella's heart.
"They're the wrong ones." Edward murmured, tugging them away.
"Young man! I've been through college you know nothing. So please step away." I would have let out a booming laugh, but it didn't seem right. I grasped Bella's pale hand tightly. He looked at the tiny cups. "Well…."He pulled them off, switching the sides.
We had to leave when he did it, and I was pacing. Edward sat in a chair right outside the door, his eyes closed, jaw set, and fists balled up.
"If he kills her with those, we're going after him, aren't we?" He asked in a whisper.
I snapped my eyes over to him, and nodded, feeling the traces of a smile on my face. Even if I was angry at him, Edward was still my brother. "Dude, I'm sorry." I patted him awkwardly on the shoulder. And I really was sorry. Sorry for letting things get out of hand…sorry for being such a bad brother…. sorry for everything. He opened his mouth to speak, then shut it once again.
"She's dying." He cried, and raced towards the room. The followed directly behind him, bursting through the door.
"Bella, Bella don't leave me." He clutched her hand. Her eyes fluttered open.
"Emmett, this is your last chance to prove your words." Coughs cackled in her throat as her body vibrated with shivers. "I-I- love y-" Her eyes closed and I let out a tearing roar. Could I really do it? Could save her?
