N/A: Ok, so this is Bella's POV (I'll tell you again, don't worry!), and I need some inspiration. Please?
Chapter 2: Worried (Bella's POV)
"Edward, I'm worried about her." We were sitting…no, cuddling, on the sofa of Edward's house. I sighed and buried my head further into his sweater.
"Me too." He moved slightly under me, sighing as well. He stroked my hair.
I marvelled at how we were actually sitting here, cuddled up on a sofa, together. We should be with Alice, I know, but we've been with her for 80 years. We need some time on our own. I know Edward is getting frustrated with her. He thinks 80 years is long enough. Then I remind him how he would feel if he lost me. It would take a hell of a lot longer than that to get over me. I hope. He usually shuts up then.
For a married couple, we have surprisingly few real fights, and, if we do, they usually end in us kissing, making-out, and collapsing on the bed in exhaustion. We fight a lot, but they're only fake fights. Life is sweet when you have a blood-sucker for a husband (and, come to that, you're one yourself…)
Having one as a step-sister, however, isn't so great.
I sighed and snuggled closer to him.
"What are we going to do then?" I yawned as I asked. People always seem to think one yawns when one is tired. However, I know that's impossible- I don't get tired. Edward says we yawn when we need to take in oxygen. I couldn't care less, to be honest, but his coming up with random facts like that is one of the reasons I love him so much.
"I'm not sure." He admitted "But I think she needs a change of scenery- she's been stuck in that bedroom for years. She only leaves to visit the clearing."
I felt sad remembering how awful Alice looked at the moment- so stricken, so shocked. She didn't look even a shadow of her old self. She was a shell, and it scared me.
I knew Edward was scared too. Whenever he feels something he can't handle, he just goes…quiet, and he barely speaks when Alice is around now. His thoughts scare her. I think he hears things…hears her thoughts, and they terrify him. He doesn't know what to do, and if he doesn't know, than what do I do?
I'm worried, and I think we're running out of time.
