My consciousness was slipping away from me but in the distance I could hear two cries of anguish mingled as one – Edward's and Mackenzie's.
In The Hospital
Suddenly I was in a hospital room.
I still could not open my eyes to see but the hum of the machines was defending and the over-clean smell overpowering.
I was unsure of how long I had been there. Minutes? Hours? Days? I had been asleep.
There were many muffled bangs and shouts. What was going on, my brain wondered fuzzily.
A door slammed loudly and suddenly hands gripped my shoulders. I could feel their pressure yet somehow none of their warmth.
"Bella!" Mackenzie's voice spoke low and urgent in my ear. "Please wake up Bella. I'm fairly sure you can hear me. You have people here who need you. I-."
The door opened again and his hands released me.
"What the hell is wrong with her!?" Mackenzie's voice was unlike any I had ever heard, so filled with rage and anguish.
An older voice spoke in a disapproving manner. "Are you family?"
"I wish to see this girls charts!"
I could hear more people coming in, an excited babble of voices talking too low for me to pick out any specific voice.
"I'm sorry sir, but we are going to have to ask you to leave."
"It will be my fault if this girl DOES NOT WAKE UP! Cant you see what seeing her lying there is doing to me!?"
I could feel myself drifting back into sleep.
"What do you think I'll do if she never comes back!?"
I willed myself to stay awake.
"Security!" someone yelled.
Hands touched my face. "Please Bella!" his voice was closer. "I can't deal with this!"
I heard more people in the room.
"Who is the doctor? Who is her doctor?" Mackenzie asked desperately.
No one answered.
"Come with us, Sir" said two stern voices.
"I'll be back, Bella." He whispered the promise.
I felt his fingers on my forehead and then they were gone and I was slipping away from reality, back into numbness.
