Realizing what she wanted, I leaned into her and kissed her lightly. I pulled away and chuckled. "Let's go get that wheelchair of yours then!"


Bella's Point of View

Edward and I were now in Carlisle's office at the hospital where we would be receiving my wheelchair. It had been custom made for me about a week ago.

We were sitting alone in the room waiting. I was thinking about how much I wanted to move again when it happened. One second, I couldn't feel anything, and the next, I felt Edward running his fingers along my arm.

I jumped up and started screaming. Edward looked up at me in complete shock.

Just as quickly as the feeling came, it went away. I lost all feeling again and fell in a heap on the ground.

"Bella!" Edward yelled as he picked me up. "What happened?"

"I…I think…Edward…" I couldn't form a coherent response at the moment. I had just felt Edward! I had moved!

Edward sat down with me still in his arms. "Bella, how did you just move?" he asked.

I still couldn't speak, so I stayed silent. My brain was working overtime trying to figure out what had just happened.

"Bella," Edward said anxiously. "Answer me."

"Edward," I whispered. "I just…I felt…I felt you."

He stared at me with a look of complete confusion. "How?"

"I don't know." I found I could speak normally again. "I just felt you running your fingers along my arm. It went away just as fast as it came though."

"So you can't feel anymore?" he asked.

"But I did!" I smiled. "I felt you Edward!"

He didn't smile back. Instead, he frowned.

My face dropped. "Aren't you happy about this?" I asked.

"Yes Bella. But why did it only last for a second?" he asked.

"I don't even know why I felt anything Edward. But can't you just be happy for me?"

He smiled. "I am very happy for you Bella." He leaned in and kissed me lightly on the lips. "We need to talk to Carlisle about this though," he said as he pulled away. "Maybe he can explain what happened."

"Maybe." I stared at him for a moment before my face broke out into a huge smile. I was ecstatic! I had felt again!

Edward smiled hugely back at me as Carlisle walked in the door.

"And what are you two so happy about?" he asked as he sat down in a chair across from us.

"Bella just received feeling in her body," Edward replied, not taking his eyes away from me.

Carlisle gasped. "You can feel again?"

"No," I said looking up. "I felt Edward and was able to jump up, but then the feeling left me."

"So you regained feeling but only for a short amount of time?" Carlisle clarified.

"Yes." I smiled. "What does it mean?"

Carlisle studied me carefully. "I don't know Bella. This could mean that your paralyses is really going away like Alice predicted, but we can't be sure."

I stared back at him and thought to myself. This could be it. I could be getting the feeling in my body back. I could be healing.

But what if the incident was just a fluke? What if I wasn't getting better?

As I sat there thinking, I realized something. I was such an idiot! How could I have wasted two whole years of my new life being depressed?

Even if I never did get better, I realized now that I could handle it. This experience had opened up my eyes. I could handle this now. I had to.

I couldn't live my whole existence being sad. How this experience made me see this, I have no idea, but I was thankful for it. I could move on now.

"Well, even if I don't get better, I think I can live with this now," I told Carlisle. I turned to Edward and smiled sadly. "I am so sorry Edward."

He frowned. "For what?"

"I have made your life miserable these past two years. I can't believe I was so stupid! I wasted two years…"

"Bella," Edward interrupted.

"Please don't interrupt me Edward. I need to say this." I smiled and then continued. "I was such an idiot. I shouldn't pity myself. This is something that happened, and I need to deal with it. It was wrong of me to put you through this crap. You don't deserve it. I am so sorry Edward."

"You weren't an idiot Bella. This was a tragic thing that happened. You deserve to be angry. And you don't deserve this either."

I smiled at him. "Thank you Edward."

Carlisle cleared his throat, and I turned to look at him. "Sorry Carlisle."

He smiled. "Don't be sorry."

I smiled back and sighed. "I think I need to go and see everyone else. I need to apologize to them too."

"You have nothing to apologize about," Carlisle stated. "But if you want to, we can go right after we get you your wheelchair. I can ask to leave early for 'family business.'" He smiled at me and I couldn't help but smile back.

"That sounds great. Is my wheelchair ready now? I want to get going." I was anxious now. I needed to apologize to my family. I didn't think I could rest until I did.

Both Carlisle and Edward laughed. "Yes. The nurse is bringing it in now."

Just as he said this, a lady walked in pushing a wheelchair. "Here you go Dr. Cullen."

"Thank you," he said as she walked out the door.

"Here it is Bella. We need to have you sit in it to make sure it is the right size and everything."

Edward kissed me on the cheek and stood up. Carefully, he placed me in the chair and strapped me in.

I couldn't tell if I fit right because I couldn't feel anything, but Carlisle smiled at me, so I knew it was good.

"Perfect," He stated.

I smiled and then grew solemn. "How much does it cost?"

Edward kneeled down and took my face in his hands. "Don't worry about that Bella. It doesn't matter. Besides, I have already bought it."

"It does matter though. Just because you have a lot of money doesn't mean you can go spend a bunch of it on me. And what do you mean you already bought it?"

"Bella, it isn't my money. It is our money."

"Fine. You shouldn't be spending a bunch of our money on me. Now answer my question."

Edward growled lightly. "We will not be discussing this Bella. I got you the wheelchair. End of story."

"You just growled at me!" I said, shocked. He had never done that before.

"Only in a loving way," he said as he smiled. "Now, let's go to your house Carlisle," he said, turning his attention away from me.

"Just let me go tell the nurse that I will be leaving. You can start taking Bella outside. I will catch up to you," he said.

He walked out of the room leaving Edward and me alone.

"It isn't possible to growl in a loving way Edward," I said not letting him change the subject.

"It is in this case. Bella, I love you. I don't want you to worry about the cost of your wheelchair. You deserve it. It will give you more freedom."

"How will it give me more freedom? I will still need someone to push me everywhere."

"No you won't," Edward stated. He got a mischievous look on his face, which made me nervous.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"This wheelchair is motorized."

"I can't move Edward. Even if it is motorized, how can I make it move when I can't move?"

"But you can make it move Bella."

I was getting frustrated now. "Explain to me how that is possible Edward."

He smiled and took something from the back of my wheelchair. I realized that it was a little cord.

"What is that?" I asked.

He didn't say anything as he attached one end to my wheelchair and the other end behind my ear.

"What are you doing?"

"This is how you can make it move," he stated.

I gave him a questioning look.

He stood up and went to stand in front of me. "Move your head slightly forward," he said.

"What?"

"Move your head slightly forward," he repeated.

I looked at him weird but decided to obey. I moved my head forward and the wheelchair flew forward and hit Edward. He barely moved at the impact.

"Holy crow!" I breathed.

"You just moved your wheelchair," Edward said, smiling.

"How?" I asked, still shocked.

"I hooked a chord up to the wheelchair and then placed the other end behind your ear on your head. When you move your head, it makes the chair move."

"You have got to be kidding me," I said.

"I'm not. Tilt your head back slightly. And I do mean slightly this time." He eyed me and then laughed.

I tilted my head back a little bit and the chair moved backwards. "Whoa!" I said. "That's amazing!"

Edward laughed.

I moved my head slightly to the right and the chair turned to the right. "Edward, thank you!" I said. "Thank you!"

Edward smiled and walked over to me. He kissed me lightly on the lips. "You deserve it."

"I can move on my own now!" I smiled.

"Yes you can. I hope you will still let me carry you though," Edward said.

I laughed. "Of course I will."

He smiled and turned to the door. "I suppose we should go now. Carlisle is already at his house."

"Okay!" I said excitedly.

Edward laughed. "Move your head slightly forward then and we will be on our way."

I moved my head and flew into the door. Edward ran over and started laughing at me. "I said slightly Bella."

I laughed. "This is going to take some getting used to." I moved my head slightly backwards causing the chair to back away from the door. "Let's go then."

"Remember Bella, slightly."

I rolled my eyes and inched my head forward. This time, the chair moved easily through the now open door and Edward and I were on our way to Carlisle's house.


In the car, I thought to myself. I didn't know why I had felt Edward earlier. All I was thinking about was how badly I wanted to move again...

"That's it!" I screamed.

Edward jumped and looked at me funny. "What 's wrong Bella?" he asked anxiously.

"Edward, earlier when I felt you, I had been thinking about how much I wanted to move and then I moved."

He frowned. "So..."

"Do you think that I made myself move?" I asked.

His frown deepened as he thought. "Hmm. Maybe. We need to test it."

We were in the driveway now, but Edward made no move to get out. "I want you to try to move your hand and open the door Bella."

I looked at him and then nodded. "Okay."

I concentrated all of my thoughts on moving my hand. Just when I thought it wasn't going to work, I felt my hand move to the door. I pulled the handle and opened the door.

I screamed and lost all feeling in my body again. For some reason, I was really tired now, but I yelled, "Edward, it worked! It worked!"

Edward smiled hugely. "Try it again."

I thought only of getting out of the car. I regained feeling in my body and got out of the car. Edward flew to my side and smiled at me.

"Bella, I think we have found your power."

"What do you mean?" I asked. Just as I said this, I lost feeling in my body and fell into Edward's arms.

"Bella?" Edward asked anxiously.

"I think I need to keep concentrating only on moving. If I try to think of anything else, I lose feeling again." I was so tired now. I couldn't understand it.

"Try one more time just to make sure it really works," Edward said.

I nodded slowly and thought only of moving from Edward's grip. I pulled away from him and watched as he smiled. But I couldn't smile back. Edward frowned. Something was wrong. I lost all feeling in my body again and fell to the ground before Edward could catch me.

"Bella?" Edward yelled. He ran to my side and knelt down. "Bella?"

"Edward?" I whispered. For some reason, I had absolutely no strength left. I felt like sleeping, but vampires couldn't sleep. What was wrong with me?

"What's wrong Bella?" Edward asked anxiously.

"I..." I couldn't finish my sentence. Everything went black and I passed into nothingness.

I have no idea how these types of wheelchairs really work, but they do exist. Don't bash me for not knowing how they work. I made up the chord. Deal with it. Haha.

Sorry about the cliffhanger. If all of this is confusing to you, just ask me to clarify.
