Edward was growling slightly as I peered around him to the dark figure by the couch. My stomach began turning in knots when they turned around, then I noticed who it was.

"Calm down Edward." I looked up at him and placed a hand on his out reached arm as he eyed me. "Its okay I know who it is."

"Bella is that you?" I heard him call, as Edward snapped his head back to glare in his direction, I rolled my eyes.

"Yes, Phil its me." I answered as I pushed past Edward as he relaxed.

"How are you holding up?" He asked as he pulled me into a hug. I hugged him back even though it felt weird, I was not close to Phil at all, yes I liked him and glad that Renee has him, but that was about it. Back when I still lived with Renee, Phil wasn't around much but when he was he was spending most his time with Renee. I didn't mind, but it did help make my decision a little easier.

"As well as can be expected, I guess." I forced a smile, I starting to feel dizzy again. Phil smiled back as he released me, then noticed Edward as he flipped on a light behind us and walked up.

"Hello, and who might you be?"

"I am Edward Cullen." He smiled as a way to hind the laughter inside, only I noticed.

"Well it is finally nice to meet you. Renee has told me everything that Bella has told her." Phil smiled as he reached out his hand to shake Edwards; he was reluctant at first but then shook Phil's hand. "It must be getting colder out, your hand is like ice." I tried to hide a smile, as did Edward. "So Bella is Renee with you?"

"No she is still at the funeral home." I was starting to feel worse when things started spinning.

"Bella I think you should sit down, you're not looking to well." Phil suggested. I tried to nod, when I felt Edward's arms around me. I looked up at him, when I noticed that I had begun to fall backwards. He then placed me on the couch and sat next to me.

"Do you feel alright Bella?" Phil was concerned.

"Just a little dizzy that's all." Although the spinning had stopped and I was feeling a little better.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, Phil I will be okay. I just need to lay down for a while."

"Alright, I will let you be. But get some rest you don't want to worry Renee to much." He smiled as he went to the door.

"Will do, but please don't tell her." He turned back to me with a nodded and then was gone. Once he was gone I laid my head on Edward's shoulder as he wrapped his arms around me.

"I take it you and Phil are not close."

"Why do you say that?" I tried to act shocked.

"I could see that you were not comfortable around him, and he was nervous." He teased a little as I looked up at him with narrow eyes. "Tell me I am wrong then."

"Your not." I admitted after a moment causing him to laugh a little. "I am glade Renee has him, and I do like him, its just we never really bonded. That was one of the reasons why I moved to Forks." He just smiled at me with that crooked smile I love.

"Thank you." I whispered, but he heard me.

"For what?" His brow rose.

"Being here."

"There is no where else I would want to be." He was taken back, but held me tighter. Slowly I began to slip toward unconsciousness as I listened to his breathing, but I was pulled back quickly when I shivered.

"Are you cold?"

"Not really, just warn out." I lied a little, I was feeling ill and the pain was becoming worse but I didn't want to worry him anymore today.

"Maybe you should go lay down."

"After, I have another human moment." I smiled.

"Don't take to long you don't look well, and you need to rest." Kissing my forehead he helped me to my feet and I headed to the other room to grab my pajamas and toiletries. When I reached the bathroom door I started to feel dizzy again, as I began falling forward I felt Edward's cool hands around my waist.

"Bella maybe you should just lay down."

"No, I will be fine. The hot water will help." I smiled, he reluctantly let me go. I sighed once I shut the bathroom door behind me. As I turned the water on hot and prepared to get in, I became dizzy again and heard a ringing in my ears. Grabbing the wall I steady myself, then convincing myself that it would go away once I was under the water I climbed in. At first it helped, but after a while it was getting worse so I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. The next thing I knew I heard someone yelling my name.

"BELLA!" I opened my eyes to see Edward; he was holding me in his arms bridal style on the floor. His touch was colder then normal against my skin.

"Edward what happen?" Concern filled his eyes, but there was a touch of anger there as well. I noticed water was running when it hit me that I was just in the shower. I shirked as I pulled my arms up around my chest, feeling something soft under them.

"I put the towel around you." I turned the darkest red. "Don't worry I didn't see much."

"MUCH?" My eyes widened, as anger began to take control in his eyes.

"Bella I didn't realize how bad he had hurt you."

"What do you mean?" I looked at him with confusion.

"Bella, I saw all the bruises and your stomach." He took a deep breath to try and stay calm. I knew I had some bruises but what was on my stomach? Looking away from his slowly darkening expression I pulled the towel over a little to expose my stomach and that is when I gasped. "You mean you didn't feel it?" The concern had returned.

"No. I never felt or saw it." I was staring at the claw marks across my stomach, they were not deep enough to bleed but they were pretty bad. "I think I was to scared before and then now to dizzy. But why are you in here, that I don't understand." Now his express was completely taken over again with pain and concern.

"You scared me when…" He shook his head. "Never mind, here get dressed." Handing my pajamas, he then helped me to my feet and turned around. I could definitely tell he was hiding something from me.

"Edward wait, tell me what happened, please?" He turned back around and placed his cool hands on my bare shoulders.

"Bella, I don't think…" Whatever it was scaring him. "I think Carlisle should take a look at you, before I say anything." He kissed my cheek and turned back around to look at the wall.

"What are you doing?"

"I am not leaving you alone again, not after that. Bella I won't look." I walked over to him and put my hand on his arm and pulled him around to face me.

"Please tell me what happened. Edward please!" That's when I noticed Edward would have been crying if he could. "You're scaring me."

"I don't want to scare you, but…" I put my hand on his face when things started spinning again. He seemed to notice and pulled me against him right before I could fall over again. "Bella, you're the one scaring me." He was holding me so close that the coolness of his touch helped things calm down. "Get dressed and then I will tell you, right before I call Carlisle to come take a look at you." I nodded as he let me go slowly making sure I wasn't going to fall and then turned around. Normally I would have argued with him but I could tell he was really scared for me so I quickly got dress and walked back over to him. I rested my head against his back as I wrapped my arms around him. Slowly he loosened my grip on him so he could turn back around and faced me wrapping his arms around me and hugging me tighter then he ever had, but not to tight that I could still breath.

"Come on lets go call Carlisle." He picked me up and carried me into the bedroom and placed me on the bed.

"Wait you said you would tell me, what I did to scare you." I was scared part of me didn't really want to know.

"Okay but please stay calm." I nodded. "I was listening to you, I was worried after your fainting spells and what happened. But I never thought that it this could happen." He took a deep breath and looked at me as he took my face in his hand. "I heard you fall and then your heart stopped."

"What?"

"Bella, I think something is wrong you heart has been skipping beats and then it stopped for at least four minutes, you really have be scared." I felt tears in my eyes, as he held me close. My heart stopped and now it's acting odd, what's wrong with me? As he held me he called Carlisle.

"Yes, it is." He said after a few minutes. "Yes we are at the Inn." He paused again to listen to Carlisle. "Okay thank you."

"Edward what he say?" I asked when he hung up.

"He is not sure, but he is on his way. How are you feeling now?" There was concern in his voice.

"Okay right now just…" Then things started spinning so I close my eyes.

"Bella!" Edward called to me but it sounded muffled. The ringing was back and my body felt heavier then normal. I felt my body go limp in Edward's arms as he called to me again. "Bella please look at me." He was pleading. "Carlisle in here hurry, it her…" That was all I heard before there was nothing, no sound, no feeling, nothing.
