A/N: I do not own twilight or any of its wonderful characters. Please do not hurt me if I do them injustice. I'm trying my best.
School Starts
That was when I felt a cramping in my stomach. I thought it was probably from the food and ignored it. How very wrong I was.
Edward was at my side a few moments later, picking me up bridal style and putting me on my bed. I still had a hard time figuring out how he could love me so much. I also couldn't understand how I went so long with out knowing him, or thinking that I was fine without anyone in my life. Edward changed a lot of things. None of them bad, all of them good things that made me a happier person. I hoped he was happier, too.
He wrapped his arms around me, my stomach hurt again and I cringed. I hoped that Edward didn't notice, but of course he did.
"Bella? What's wrong? Are you feeling ok?" He sounded a little worried.
"I'm fine Edward I think that the food just isn't agreeing with me is all. It's just a little cramping. Probably be gone in the morning. Speaking of morning, when will you be leaving for your hunting trip?" I asked to get his mind off of my stomach.
His voice was still a little worried when he answered "I'll be leaving around 5 in the morning, but I hope not to be gone too long. Hopefully be back by Sunday morning."
"Ok, what ever will I do without you?" I questioned sarcastically.
"Hopefully not put your self in turmoil by doing the laundry or walking down your stairs." He said with a grin.
"Oh I suppose I should just stay in bed all day." I said playing along.
We smiled at each other for awhile while I drifted to sleep. He kissed my forehead and whispered in my ear "Goodnight my angel, I love you and will protect you from everything." I grinned drowsily.
"My muve ohh too." I said groggily. He laughed and held me tighter. The last thing I remembered that evening was him placing his lips to my neck.
Saturday was very uneventful. I woke up when Edward left to say goodbye and to tell him I love him. I fell back asleep and stayed in bed till about 11:30. I looked outside and saw that it was actually a very nice day. It wasn't raining and every once in awhile the sun would shine through the clouds. I took the opportunity of good weather and grabbed a blanket and a book and laid out in the back yard.
I didn't even realize what I grabbed until I sat down and read the cover. Pride and Prejudice. One of my favorites.
I opened it and realized how much I loved the old English they used. I would try to remember to ask Edward about it when I saw him in the morning. Uh oh, that started it. I couldn't get Edward out of my head then and I realized I kept reading the same paragraph over and over again. I must have read it twenty times before giving up and turning over to lye on my back to try to absorb some Vitamin D, or at least what little of it shone through the clouds.
I thought about Edward and wondered what he was doing. I tried to imagine him hunting, his eyes turning coal black and running at insane speeds through the green forest around him. It was raining and he was drenched. He wasn't running like he ran when I was on his back, he was running in a way like a lion. He must have caught sight of his prey because he stopped and hunched his back like he was about to pounce. He was about to leap when I heard Charlie calling my name. I opened my eyes and realized that I had fallen asleep.
I sat up and picked up my book and blanket and walked in doors.
"Hey dad, how was the trip?" I asked nonchalantly.
"It was pretty good, I caught three. Billy caught seven. I swear it's like he can sense where the fish are or something." Charlie replied enthusiastically, and then said something about "Power Bait" and "Lures" and something else that I decided to drown out.
"Hey Bells, how bout we order pizza tonight? You don't need to cook." He said with a smile.
I didn't mind not having to cook, but it just left me with more time to miss Edward. Not a fun thing to do at all. But none-the-less it was what I resulted into doing. I sat on my bed trying to listen to music. I checked the clock and noticed-with sorrow- that it was only 7 o'clock. I sighed and sat up, the music wasn't helping. I decided to take a shower.
I grabbed my bag and went to the rest room. I stripped down and got in, and as I was standing under the hot water as it worked out the knots in my back, my stomach started to ache again. It came in shooting pains on my sides and under my belly button. There must be something wrong with the food I've been eating lately. Was the only thought I could come up with. I couldn't be pregnant because, well, Edward refused to even come close to crossing that line, and it was impossible for vampires anyways. But it was probably best that he did not and result in killing me in the process.
The pains were gone as quick as they had arrived and I got out of the shower. I brushed my hair and blow dried it. Brushed my teeth and went back to my room, the whole time thinking of Edward. I put away my toiletries and checked the clock again. 8:15. I figured I could go to bed then, even if it was still pretty early. I got under the covers and thought about Edward and me, all the time his lips were either kissing me or saying my favorite words "I love you Bella" I drifted off to a happy sleep waiting for my angel to return.
I woke up early to the face of my angel. His eyes were the brilliant topaz that I loved and his face had on the crooked smile that made my heart skip a beat. He really was my personal God.
"Good morning my love" He said in his silky voice that made me stop breathing for a moment.
"Morning" I replied, it was all that I could even think to say without slurring my words.
He laughed at the sound of my heart, and laughed even harder after when he heard how his laughter made my heart beat even faster. "Will you ever get used to me?" He asked with his beautiful grin.
"Never. I love you Edward" I said to him with a huge smile on my face.
"And I love you Bella." We sat there enjoying each others company till around 11 o'clock when he said it was time to feed the human.
"Come on Bella! You must eat; I don't want you to get sick or something." I knew he really just liked to watch me, something him and Emmett both liked to do and found amusing. I found it irritating.
"Actually Edward, my stomach kind of hurts, I don't know if I will be able to." And I wasn't lying. My stomach had started to hurt about twenty minutes before he said I should eat.
"Are you ok? Should I take you to Carlisle? Do you need something? Water, medicine, anything?" Edward asked a little too concerned like always.
"Edward, I'm fine, I've probably just been eating to much take out and stuff. Don't worry; it will probably go away soon." I eased him as I saw the worried look in his face. His worried look turned into a smile quickly though and his eyes shined down into mine. I quickly lost track of what I was thinking as I looked at him. He slowly brought his lips to mine and gently grazed them against me. I stood perfectly still, knowing all too well what my emotions made me do sometimes.
The kiss ended and I opened my eyes to his perfect smile.
"So, we have school tomorrow, and I must say, if Newton has one thought about you at all, I swear I'm going to…" I laughed at him and he stared at me. "What?"
"You're so cute when you're angry. Besides, why does it matter what Mike thinks? You have me and he doesn't, I'd say you win hands down." I replied to him with a grin.
"I guess you're right. But it still irritates me." He smiled and leaned down and gave me another kiss before picking me up bridal style and setting me down at the kitchen table. "Now please, try to eat something and then we can go to my house, ok?"
I nodded and poured my self a bowl of cereal, it was hard to swallow but I did because I wanted to get my day with Edward started. I finished the bowl and went to change. I decided on the blue v-neck shirt that Edward said he liked so much and of course a pair of jeans. I ran down stairs, I fell on the last step, but Edward was already there to grab me as I stumbled. I looked up to see his breath taking grin and beautiful topaz eyes full of love.
"What ever am I going to do with you Bella?" He asked sarcastically. His hair was falling just over his forehead, giving him that model look; it was quite awhile before I started to breathe again. I smiled at his beautiful face and thanked everything that he was mine.
"Let's go" I said once I finally got my composure and placed all of my weight back on myself. But he wasn't having that. He held me tighter and pulled my chin close to his face and slowly, and cautiously, he placed his lips to mine. I breathed in his deep scent and I felt dizzy, but I stayed completely still, determined to behave.
I had another ache in my stomach then and I reflexively winced at the pain. Edward pulled away and I saw a bit of confusion and sadness in his eyes, but he quickly saw why I had winced when he saw that I was clutching at my abdomen.
"Stomach still hurts? Poor Bella, maybe you should stay home and rest today" Edward said concerned.
"No, please Edward I want to spend the day with you and your family. I'll be fine soon probably, don't worry." I said in rushed tones, in fear that the pain would make my voice betray me.
He contemplated what he should do for a moment, but I guess he decided to take my word because he swooped me up in one of those inhumanly quick actions, and before I knew it I was sitting in his car and he was pulling out of the drive way. In less time then it seemed possible we were pulling up to his house. We parked and he was quickly at my side of the car opening the door. He reached out his hand for mine to help me out of the car and I took it openly. We walked hand in hand to his door and walked in.
Carlisle and Esme were watching the television, some ER show or something. All I know is that it involved a lot of blood and it looked pretty real. They looked up at the sound of us entering.
"Hello Bella!" called Esme from across the room.
"Hello Esme, Carlisle." I said to them, but it sounded half hearted, I just saw what they were doing on the television and realized why there was so much blood. They were cutting a woman's stomach open, something about a bullet wound and internal bleeding. I was getting sick just thinking about all the blood.
Edward noticed and pulled me up stairs to his room quickly. But when we walked in the room was not empty. Alice was sitting on Edwards couch in the middle of his room.
"Bella! Didn't expect to see you today!" she said with a wink.
"Oh, of course you didn't Alice" I added playing along. We laughed quietly for a moment.
"Bella, I know what you're going to say," Of course she did. "But, I need someone to come shopping with me this weekend in Seattle! And I think it's time to update your winter clothing." She added with a dazzling grin.
"Alice….. I… ergh… Have… or will have… uhm… homework to do! Yah! Homework!" I said in hopes that it would get me out of dressing rooms and expensive clothing.
"Oh silly Bella! No one gives homework on the first week, you know that." She said to show that I had no excuse. She smelt an easy victory and added, "What if I promise that everything you get, Edward will absolutely love on you?" She knew she had said the right thing because I just hung my head in defeat.
"Fine Alice. But please, nothing too much. I don't need all the clothes you buy me!" I knew my pleas would not help, but I had to try.
"No promises, but Edward will love everything I buy for you!" She said with a huge smile and gracefully walked out of the room. I sighed at the closing door, and looked up to see Edward grinning.
"I'm really excited to see what Alice gets you now." I blushed at his words and looked away sheepishly.
We sat down and he played some music while we talked. We sat there for one of those moments where you don't even realize how much time has passed by, and it feels very short, but you realize it's been much longer then anticipated. We spoke about random things mostly, School, family, teachers, even Mike came up once and Edward spoke about what he would do to him if he caught him looking, or thinking, longingly at me. We laughed a lot, but my stomach still hurt the whole time, although it really didn't matter as long as I got to sit with My Edward.
I woke up in the morning to my angels face smiling at me. He kissed me on the forehead and said he'd see me at school. I smiled and he was gone. I got dressed and went down stairs. I still wasn't feeling well so I decided not to eat. I knew what Edward would say if he found out I hadn't eaten my breakfast, but then again Edward couldn't read my mind so it didn't matter.
I went out to my truck as soon as I figured it would be ok for me to be at school. I drove the 2 miles to the school parking lot and parked next to Edward's Volvo, which was already here to my great enjoyment. I got out and before I could turn around from grabbing my back pack from the passenger seat, Edward was there. I jumped a little from the surprise, but he found it to be rather amusing.
"Good morning Bella" Edward said in his silky voice that made my heart skip beats.
"Good morning" I replied not really knowing what to say. He chuckled and my heart raced at the beautiful sound of his laughter.
"So what classes do you have?" I asked in hopes to get my heart back to normal speed.
"Don't know, come on lets go get our schedules." We walked to the office and picked up our schedules. I looked over mine; hour 1 was English, hour 2 was Bio 3, hour 3 was PE, hour 4 was Spanish, hour 5 was government, and hour 6 was calculus.
"We have almost all the same classes. Just 6th is different." He said with joy in his voice. "One last thing to have to worry about"
"Yah, thank goodness." I added relieved to know that Edward and I would be able to spend almost the whole day together. And we didn't even have to change our schedules! It was a great way to start a first day of school.
