Chapter 5 – The Dream
I knew I was dreaming yet it felt impossibly real. I honestly felt like this was happening, though I prayed and hoped to the very core of my being that I would never be in this situation
We were in the Cullens living room; I was standing at the foot of the stairs. The room was barely recognisable though. All of Esme's beautiful furniture was smashed or broken, as though there had been some sort of struggle. The room was completely torn apart.
I realized with a terrifying jolt that the Cullens and I were not the only ones in the room.
There were at least 20 of them. They were standing around the living room. Completely at ease. There black as night cloaks swirling around them despite the lack of a breeze.
The Volturi.
Aro, Caius and Marcus were also present, and this surprised me. Their guard were holding the Cullens back as they tried to break free from the tight grips. There were four on Emmett.
But the most terrifying part was the look in my family's eyes.
Scared, Sad, Regretful, Angry and…defeated. It was almost too much to bear.
I heard a sickening snap, and looked down to see my right arm sticking out in an awful position. I knew immediately that it was broken, yet I felt no pain.
Jane stepped away from me smiling. She had a little white bundle in her arms.
My Baby.
"NO!" I screamed. I tried to move forward but I couldn't get my feet to work.
Edward roared in anger and thrashed forward, pushing the surprised vampires out of the way and sending them flying across the room.
I realized Felix was standing behind me. He was holding on to the back of my shirt.
Edward threw him against the wall and leaned over me.
"Bella, are you okay?" he asked gently but his eyes were furious, hostile. I'd never seen him so angry. He frightened me, but I knew I could trust him.
"Edward, what's going on?" I panicked, clutching onto him. My voice broke on the last word. "What's happening here?"
Suddenly Edward's face contorted in pain and he fell to his knees.
"Edward!" I screamed.
I screamed, jolting upright. I looked around me, my eyes scanning for any sign of those black cloaks. I was still in Edward's room I realized with relief.
The door few open and Edward flashed in.
"Bella? Bella, what is it?" he asked sitting on the bed beside me and gathering me in to the cool circle of his arms.
My hands were shaking and my heart was pounding fast.
"Just…a bad…dream." I panted. He kissed my forehead.
"It's over now, love. You're safe." He cooed.
I climbed onto his lap and put my arms around his neck
"It was so real." I told him, leaning my face into his chest and breathing in his calming scent. He hugged me tightly to him.
"It was only a dream." He comforted me.
Eventually my heart rate slowed and I could breathe normally.
Emmett appeared in the doorway, grinning.
"Morning Bells! I thought you'd never wake up, and I made breakfast!" he declared, puffing out his chest proudly. I pretended to groan and got up.
"Gosh Emmett, that's really nice of you…but, um…are you sure it's edible?" I teased.
"Sure it is. All I had to do was take it out of the packet." He told me, ruffling my hair. He grinned suddenly.
"Damn, Bella. Those are the sexiest pyjamas I've ever seen!" he said, still grinning.
Edward chuckled from behind me. "Yep, I have to agree with you there, Em." He said smiling wickedly.
I blushed and looked down at my fluffy sheep pyjamas.
"You know," Emmett went on. "If we weren't both married I'd defiantly sleep with you." He winked and laughed, his loud booming laugh.
I blushed again and rolled my eyes.
"Ok, enough teasing me and my pj's. Let's go eat." I said, walking around Emmett.
"Sounds good! I'm having Bella!" Emmett boomed and threw me over his shoulder. I squealed and bounced uncomfortably as he ran down the stairs with me. Edward came flying after us.
"Emmett! Be careful! She's-"
"Edward Cullen! I thought I told you to wait! Don't tell anyone!" Alice screeched, appearing at the bottom of the stairs in a dressing gown. I had to laugh. She looked so cute!
"Ooh! Tell me, tell me, tell me!" Emmett pleaded, sitting me on the couch and jumping up and down.
Edward came over and took me hand, gently tugging me towards the kitchen, as Alice tried to fend off an over-excited Emmett.
He picked up a blanket and a plate full of food off the counter.
"Come on," he smiled. "It's a nice day. Let's go outside."
Alike much? Yeah I know! There you go. Don't forget to review! Mwahzzies Babe!
