Disclaimer: I don't own anything awesome like Twilight, so just enjoy my little story I wrote for the awesome series.
Okay I am back once more and very surprised. I am honestly gob-smacked by how many people actually liked the last chapter. That really made my day. The reason I hadn't finished that chapter sooner or worked on it harder was because I seriously doubted that anyone would like it! You guys sure proved me wrong!
Now is the point where I usually thank each reviewer in turn and answer any questions they have:
Hannah- Wow! Really? Thanks, I will!
Deepcutfighter- I'm glad you liked it. I shall try to write when I can.
KHerpeche- Thank you! Woah! What a compliment! Thanks!
The Queen Vampiress- aww! I will! Keep reading!
Dazzled-by-a-Cullen- Well, here you go! Thank you! Review when you read!
Cassidy- I am pleased to hear that. I shall try to always update quickly. There are no guarantees though.
xJAYx- Good girl. Keep reviewing they really make me write! I certainly shall write fi I get reviews!
Danielle- I dunno, about finishing, but I shall update.
Lollie-rox-my-sox- Glad you think so! Keep the reading.
Vampire-in-the-lite- I shall try. As long as I have ideas, time, and reviews, I shall keep writing. Thank you!
Chichistar- Hello, again. Glad you tuned into this story too. Yeah, I know. I was writing something different when that came up to me. It kinda clicked. Thanks!
Kay- Intense, huh? Indeed, I shall. Cuties coming up.
Twilightcrazy2309- I am happy to hear you loved my story. It quite amazes me. Well, here you go.
Now that that is out of the way. I give you chapter two.
Dazed and confused I find myself in a strange and foreign world.
Nothing is familiar, nothing makes sense.
I have no memory of who I was.
No shreds of remembrance.
Everything is strange and alien to my unremembering eyes.
Everyone knows me but I don't know them.
It's like everything I have ever been or known has been erased.
I am stranded in an abyss of uncertainty.
I have to find my way out of this nightmare.
My story continues…
In a flood of light and sound, I woke up…
It felt like my senses were put into overdrive; everything seemed to be coming at me too strong.
Though my eyes were still shut, the light streaming through my eyelids was too bright.
The smells were overpowering as well. The strongest among those my nose could detect, was the stench of antiseptic; it burned my nose. But mingled among the bouquet of aromas was something different. It, unlike all the others present, was pleasant. This one was unbelievably sweet.
Everything also seemed strangely loud. A machine beeped near my head, startling me. I could also hear voices. They could have been coming from far away but they all sounded like they were yelling, so I had no way to be sure.
And then the pain struck. I could feel everything so much stronger. But this pain was too intense and filled me up completely. Every part of me ached. Underneath the pain I could feel more, my legs felt heavy and my arms itched.
Keeping my eyes firmly shut against that blinding light, I made to move my arm, only to be faced with an onslaught of fresh agony. The pain grew too much and an involuntary groan escaped my lips.
And suddenly a sharp intake of breath came from somewhere nearby. The sweet fragrance seemed more potent and closer somehow. The sound I heard next was the most beautiful sound. The most musical voice spoke gently near my ear, "Bella? Can you hear me?"
Reluctantly, I opened my eyes. Sitting beside me, with a deep look of concern on his face was an absolutely beautiful boy. I made to look around where I was. That turned out to be a bad idea as I was only met with pain, but the gesture still revealed nothing. I did not see with my quick glance why this beauty sat by what appeared to be my bedside. Could there have been a mistake?
He had stunning bronze hair and intense golden eyes. He was amazing. Upon seeing my eyes open, a look of pure relief possessed his face.
"Bella?" He whispered lightly.
"What?" I barely got out. It hurt to talk; my throat closed up- hoarse.
"Bella!" He cried, trying to keep his volume down, but he was clearly overjoyed by my awakening. I still could not understand why he would be so. Who was he? I did not get it, who was this beauty?
"Who?" I inquired weakly, trying unsuccessfully to get my voice to cooperate.
"What?" He asked, his wonderful eyes suddenly full of confusion and worry.
"Who is Bella?" I asked again, my voice cracking on the way out.
And in the seconds that my words sunk in, all fire and joy died in his eyes. All that was replaced by horribly haunting despair. He looked so distraught it actually caused me pain. Reason and logic can not explain why I felt this way, but I felt it nonetheless. I did not even know this beautiful angel but I wanted to help him, to permanently wipe that broken look off his face forever.
"What's wrong? What did I say?" I croaked, almost pleading.
He leaned closer, looking directly in my eyes and despairingly asked, "You mean you don't know who Bella is?"
I tried to shake my head but was hit again with a wave of pain.
"No, who is she?" I asked, trying to decipher the anguish in his eyes.
The angel closed his eyes for the briefest of moments, sighing heavily, before beginning, "Bella is you. Your name is Bella."
Shock rocked my system. What was he saying? Could it possibly be true? How could I have not remembered that? And who was he? He must be important. The love that seemed to radiate from him could mean little else, but if he was so special to me, why couldn't I remember him?
I racked my brain but came up empty. I got nothing. Not one memory. Not one name. Nothing.
"What? I don't understand!" I cried out, causing my throat to scream in protest, "I can't remember anything!"
"Nothing at all?" He asked in complete agony.
"Yes!" I creaked, in complete distress, "Who am I? What happened?"
Tears began to fill my eyes, blurring my vision. I made to wipe them away, but my arm screamed in pain at moving.
Instead, the angel reached his own hand up and brushed them away, gently. His fingers were cool on my aching face. He then, so tenderly, reached out in anguish at seeing me so hurt, and took one of my gauzed hands. It was cool and soothing. And though it was hard like granite, it was undeniable soft. A look of intense and complete love crossed his face, as he gazed at me.
"Who are you?" I asked in awe, though my voice still ached.
Pain mangled his features briefly before he composed himself enough to answer, "I'm Edward Cullen."
"Edward." I repeated, it just rolled off my tongue so easily. It just seemed right. It fit him perfectly. Some things about him just seemed so right, but all substantial concrete details escaped me completely.
"What happened to me?" I asked again, though now a great deal calmer.
Looking down at my hand as he stroked the part not covered in gauze, he answered in his velvet voice, "You were in a car accident. A car went out of control and you fell in it's path."
"I fell?" It was so far from what I had expected I really could not help but laugh, though the action burned my throat, so I stopped quickly, "Am I some type of klutz or what?"
Though the torment stayed in his eyes the smallest of smiles graced his lips, "We used to say you were more of a magnet for danger."
"We?" I repeated, loving the way it sounded with his voice. Our eyes met fro a small instant but in the gaze something crossed between us. I couldn't figure out what but I felt true passion. Looking away quickly, I went on, "Really now? Danger? Did I ever attract something worse than an out of control car?"
I had meant it as a joke but a dark look filled his eyes, like I had struck home, Edward simply replied, "Yes, much worse."
"Care to elaborate?" I asked but then Edward looked up, out of the open door to what appeared to be a hospital hallway.
I looked to and saw a man walking down the hallway, a bouquet in his hands. He was older, late forties, early fifties from what I could guess. He was talking with a nurse as he walked. When he got closer, he looked into the room for the first time and saw me looking back.
"I can't believe it." I barely heard him mumble, "Bella."
And there you have it. Chapter two is done.
