Renesmee POV
You never really get used to seeing your face on the TV for the whole world to see. Growing up in a family full of famous people you expect a lot of attention focused on you. But this is one thing you never want to see.
I don't really remember what happened that night. I remember getting into the car to head over to the concert hall then it went all black. But the thing I remember the most is the intense pain all over my body. I didn't know how long I was unconscious for. It felt like a lifetime but once I woke up they told me it had only been a month.
I was lying in the hospital bed, writhing in pain but my body was not moving. I tried screaming for anyone to hear me but my mouth did not corporate with what I wanted to say. Every now and then I would get a relief from the pain but it was always there, lingering and waiting for the chance to come back. To make me suffer.
Pain is a cruel thing. It chokes you to the point where you just beg it to end but it takes no mercy on you, gives you no way out.
I could hear my family weep over my unmoving body. My dad would never let go of my hand. Mum started reading to me after a few days. She would bring in some of my favourite books and sit there for hours on end just reading to me. My uncle Emmett would turn on the sports channel just because I could not complain. My cousin's would come in and tell me that they miss me and for me to wake up. They never left my side which is why I was hysterical when I finally woke up from my coma to an empty room.
My eyes opened violently. I began searching the room for any familiar faces of my family but when I could not see anyone, not even a nurse, I panicked. I could vaguely hear the heart monitor speed up whilst I was flailing around on the bed. I was coughing because of the tube they shoved down my throat and I guess my struggles where heard because a nurse and a doctor rushed into the room. Whilst the nurse was trying to calm me down, the doctor told me to cough so he could take the tube out. As soon as I was able to talk I was yelling and screaming.
"Mummy! Daddy!"
The nurse was still trying to calm me down when my parents rushed through the hospital door. They came straight to my side and started calming me down. I stopped yelling and struggling and just sagged into my daddy's chest, sobbing until my tears ran dry.
"It hurts daddy. It really hurts" I sobbed. He was shushing me and running a soothing hand through my hair.
"I know baby I know"
Mum was running her hand up and down my back, doing a much better job of calming me then the nurse. When I was almost fully calm when something major occurred to me.
"I can't feel my legs. Mummy I can't feel my legs! I'm trying to move my legs and they are not moving. What's happening?"
I knew I was screaming again but I was panicking. I heard the doctor yell for a sedative and telling my parents that they needed to wait out in the waiting room before I felt a sharp sting in my left arm and everything went black.
Bella's POV
I put my hand over my mouth trying to contain the sob rising in my throat at the sight of my beloved daughter being sedated because she was panicking. The nurse was pushing us out of the room, telling us that we couldn't be in the room at the moment. Edward wrapped his arms around me and practically carried me out to the family waiting room where the rest of the family was waiting. At the sight of me sobbing they jumped up asking what had happened. They were in the cafeteria when Renesmee woke up so they did not know anything that had just occurred. Edward was the one to answer them because I was still crying.
"Renesmee has woken up. We were on our way back to her room when the doctor ran past us into her room. She was panicking when we went into the room but we managed to calm her down until she noticed that she couldn't feel or move her legs. They had to sedate her"
Everyone let out a sigh of relief when they heard that Renesmee was awake. The doctor came in and told us that we could go see her now but she will be out until the morning. Everyone converged into her room so they could be there when she woke up again.
Renesmee's POV
When I woke up again the sunlight was streaming through the big window in my room. I opened my eyes to see everyone in my room watching the morning news. I looked up at the screen to see that news had somehow gotten out that I was awake.
Mum was the closest to me, reading the morning paper.
"HI" I croaked out.
Every head in the room turned to me and smiles graced everyone's face. Mum started crying again and hugged me as hard as she could before it got painful.
"Don't cry mama I'm here. I'm ok" I tried consoling her but she just kept sobbing. Everyone else came over and hugged me, telling me how much they loved to see me finally awake. I smiled just as the doctor walked through the door.
"Hello Renesmee how are you feeling this morning?"
"Tired" I replied
"That's normal. You will feel sleepy for a few days because of the medication. Are you in any pain?"
"A little bit but not too much" I smiled at him.
"Good. Then the pain relief is working. Now I understand that you had quite an eventful night. They had to sedate you before you found that you could not feel or move your legs is that correct?" the doctor looked up from the chart at the end of the bed.
I nodded.
"Well the car crash you were in has left you paralysed. A large piece of glass was lodged into you spine when you were brought in and we had to operate. Everything went according to plan but unfortunately you are paralysed"
I started sobbing again.
"Will I ever walk again?"
Sorry to leave it there but it is currently 1am in Australia and I am going to bed.
