I woke up to the moon light coming through my window. I must have been asleep a long time. The clock on my bedside table read "3:46 a.m" .
I tried to cough but my throat was to dry. Just another result of my homesickness. I was extremely thirsty. I crawled out of my bed and paced quickly to the door. Everyone has to be in their rooms by now. As I slowly cracked the door open I heard voices abrutly stop. I hadn't noticed them before. I stopped moving and left teh door where it was and the voices picked up again. They were hard to make out cause they obviously knew there was a chance I could hear them. It sounded like four different voice. My mom and dad and esme and carlisle.
"I just wish she would stop. I want to help her so bad but we've tried everything. I'm really worried."
"I know Bella, I expected some kind of change by now. She just reacts the wrong way to everything. Talking about Forks and La Push just makes her sick." The voice was obviously Carlisle.
"What else can we do? Shoving food and fluids down her throat isn't working anymore. She won't even let me do that now. When Jacob came to see her that changed things a little bit.. But it made things a hell of a lot worse when he left. I want him to come see her again but i can't see her hurting anymore than she is now. It would kill her." Her voice cracked.
"As much as I don't want to split our family up" My dad's voice paused for a couple seconds "I feel like she needs to be back in Forks with her family." He snickered "Her away from that place is like a fish out of water. It just isn't right." Everyone giggled at his terrible joke.
"It could help...Maybe. I don't know if I want her there alone. There is no telling what she will do." Mom said it as if I was a bad child.
"Well she has Charlie and Sue who would make sure that she doesn't do stupid things. And she's to involved in the pack to get herself in to trouble. For pete's sake she has Jacob. He would do anything for her, and we all know he'll refuse to have sex with her. I know we all want to think he would and that we need to keep her away from him but I think her being with him is safer than her not. I trust him. He's a good person. I couldn't have picked anyone better for her to be with. She's safe with h im." The words came flowing out of his mouth s if he d been holding them in fr some time now. My dad never had anything nice to say about Jacob. He just always resented him.
"Whoa, where did that come from?" Esme laughed. My dad didnt reply but I heard him smile and chuckle.
"So, is that it? Are we sending her back to Forks? Where are we going to send her. I'm not sure that Charlie and Sue want another kid to look after." Carlisle said it as I crossed my fingers behind my back saying a little prayer to God someone would say yes.
"Well, I can call my dad and tell him what's going on. I don't think he'll have a problem taking her for a while until we figure something else out. If not we're just going to figure out another way to get her there. I will call in the morning. And by the way I think we have an eaves dropper..." Oops...So they knew I was here the whole time. I norted and started my way down the hallway to the bathroom. They continued their conversation even though they knew I could hear them.
"I knew it. I though I heard her. Hey she left her room! You see our plan is working already." They all laughed. But in reality...I had just gotten to the point of being so thirsty I thought I was going to die. Hey you gotta drink some time. I went back to my room and got under the covers. This is it I thought. I'm going home.
"Eaves dropper." My dad said from downstairs And I lauhed. for the first time in what felt like forever.
