Ch.3 It was only a dream?

Bella's Pov

"Bella? Please wake up Bella. I'm so sorry." Alice's high sophrono voice was unusually dull and firghtened which confused me. Why was she at Emmett's with me? Did she meet Edward? I sighed internally just from thinking his name. I was done for.

"Is she awake yet?" That sounded like Carlisle. But what is he doing here? Shouldn't he be at the hospital?

"Not yet. She will be okay right?" Alice asked.

"She should be fine after a few days. How did it happen again?"

"Well, I was getting ready for my night with Jasper and Bella was packing her bags cause she was crashing at Emmett's. I think she must have been trying to reach something by standing on a chair, cause when I heard the glass break there was a chair tipped over." She explained. Glass break? What exactly happened to me? Did I even get to Emmett's? Then what about Edward? It must have been an extremely good dream.

"Alice?" I croaked. Stupid grogginess.

Oh Bella thank god! I was so worried!" Suddenly two small but strong arms were around my waist and I could feel Alice sobbing into my stomache.

"Alice what happened?" I asked, still not being able to open my eyes.

"You fell out a window Bella. You're lucky you're alive."

I finally opened my eyes to see Alice and Jasper standing over me protectively. "Where's Emmett? Did he decide to avoid his best friend." I pouted showing them that even through all the pain in my ribs, hip, right arm and left leg I was still the same old Bella. It worked becuase they both laughed and then the door burst open. Emmett ran in dragging a very worried Rosalie behind him.

"Bella! My god you scared us!" Rosalie cried hugging me around the waist like Alice did. Emmett's eyes were wide as he examined the tubes and bandages all around me.

"What did ou do this time Bella?" He asked without his usual teasing tone.

"I fell out a window apparently. I honestly don't remember a thing, except for dreaming that I actually had went to your house and we ate pizza." I grinned proudly as they all laughed.

"Silly Bella. We were going to have pizza but you never showed up! Then I got a call from Jasper saying you were in te hospital, and had to pretty much drag Edward over here. I mean I know he hasn't met you or anything but he didn't have to be such a prick." Emmett growled.

"Thanks Em. Way to insult your own brother." A velety voice retorted sarcastically. I knew that voice. That was the voice of the Edward in my dream. Is it possible......? I turned to look at Edward and sure enough it was the boy from my dream, but in my opionion he looked even better. The only difference was this Edward was scowling. He looked very upset about being here for some unknown reason.

I was about to ask him what was wrong when Carlisle walked in. "Alice, Jasper, Rosalie, Emmett, I need your help with a few things. Esme needs me to pick up a few things as well as do a few errands and you four would be perfect for th job. Edward can stay here with Isabella. Right Ed?"

"Sure dad." Edward sighed sitting in the comfy looking arm chair next to my bed.

"We'll be back later Bells. Try not to miss us." Emmett chuckled. Alice and Rose hugged me while Jasper kissed the top of my head. I waved to them as they left and then turned to look at Edward. He was looking at me confused for some reason and I felt a little self consious.

"What?" I snapped after a minute.

"You don't seem to be too upset about the fact that you're lying in a hospital bed." He stated rasing an eye brow as if daring me to prove him wrong. I smirked.

"I've been in this situation too many times to count. It doesn't bother me to much anymore. But it sure seems to bother you." I replied raising an eye brow the same way he had. For the first time since he entered the room he smiled. A beautifull crooked grin that melted my heart.

"Your very observant aren't you." He laughed shaking his head. But then he got really serious. "I'm really just up setbecause I was hoping to find out a bit more about this girl I talked to online." He admitted a slight pink flush coloring his cheeks. My heart skipped a beat.

"Oh really? What's her name? I know everyone in forks." I laughed. His eyes brightened.

"Her name is Bella but I don't know her last name. Do you know her?"

My grin grew and I laughed again. "Oh I know Bella Swan very well. I'll take it you ment the ella that blushes all the time?"

"Yeah. That's her. Can you introduce us or something?" The blush colored his cheeks again this time a slightly deeper shade of pink.

"I can introduce you right now, if you want, but first you have to tell me what you think about her." I grinned. Man I am too good.

"She's different. I can't explain it right. It's just that she's not like all the other girls I met. She actually seems smart and interested in intlectual things. And I really like that." He admitted looking away from me now to hide the very obvious blush. I giggled. Just then Carlisle walked in.

"How are you feeling Bella?" He asked pulling out the clip board that he had reserved for me. Edward's head snapped up, his eyes wide as he gaped at me. I winked at him before answerng.

"My ribs are really stinging but other than that I feel some what okay." I shrugged. I really didn't like to cause people any trouble even if it was to help myself. Carlisle sighed.

"Tell me the truth Bella."

"Fine, my left leg and right arm are also hurting really bad. I think they might be broken but technically you're the doctor, so....." I trailed off smirking. Carlisle laughed and pulled out a few exrays.

"Your leg is pretty badly broken but your arm should heal in a few weeks. Mean while you'll have to wear both casts untill then." He stated strictly. I nodded and then he left to go find a nurse that could bring me a few pain killers. I flt the bed sink a little and turned my head to see that Edward had sat down.

"2 question. 1, why on earth didn't you tell him your leg might be broken first? 2, why did you get me to spill all of that if you obviasly knew who I was?" He asked almost menacinly but I could feel his emmbarressment.

"First, I don't like to bother people. Even if it's for myself. Second, I knew you wouldn't tell me if you knew it was me and I was curious. It's not everyday you get to learn wht someone thinks of you with out them editing to spare your feelings." I shrugged.

"You wouldn't bother people even for yourself?" He breathed. His eyes wide once again. I shook my head. "What if you were badly hurt?! No one would know what to do because you wouldn't tell them! And to make matters worse, of course they want you to tell them! There is no way I would let you die!"

Did he realize that he said I instead of they or we? I grinned as he continued to rant glaring out the window, his hands balled into fists. I giggled and he turned to look at me.

"I really don't think this is funny Bella. There is no way a beautifull girl like you could just sit back and not care if she's hurt!" His eyes suddenly widened as he realized what he said. "Did I say that out loud?"

"Which part?" I asked giggling.

"I'll take that as a yes." He murmered in emmbarassment looking away from me. A sudden pain in my chest made me want to take it away. He shouldn't be emmbarrassed for something like that. Carefully I lifted my good arm and grabbed his chin turning his head so he had to look at me.

"There must be something wrong with your eye sight. Even when I'm not covered in bandages I wouldn't call myself beautifull. You on the other hand....." I trailed off blushing a bright red. I dropped my hand from his chin imidatly feeling it grow cold. I succeeded m mission anyway. I took away hi embarassment and made it mine.

"Bella, you don't see yourself clearly." Edward whispered. I felt his hand grab mine and his thumb traces circles into my palm. "You are the most beautifull creature I have ever layed eyes on."

I almost snorted. "Yeah right. You have met Rosalie and Alice haven't you?" I asked sarcastically. Suddenly his arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me closer. In fact i was so close that I was pressed into him but in no way did it feel bad.

"I have. And in my eyes, your beauty exceeds theres by a land slide." He whispered into my ear this time. I could feel his breath just below it.

"I still don't believe you, you know that right?" I asked turning slightly to look at him.

"I had a feeling you wouldn't." He sighed, then got up and sat back down on the arm chair. I frowned, which caused him to wink at me and nodd towards the door. A nurse was just about to come in to give me my pain killers.

"Isabella? I have your pain killers right here." The nurse said in a snobby blonde tone. Her name tag read Lauren, and she didn't look like she belonged in the hospital at all with how short her uniform was. I nodded and took them right away expecting her to leave, unfortunatly she had noticed Edward, and was now approaching him. "Can I get you anything sir?" She purred in a very non sexy way.

"Umm no thank you." Was his brillant reply. But I did notice (with great reliefe) that he wasn't staring at her chest like Mike would have done. Unfortunatly Lauren sat down next to him and started to whisper something in his ear. His eyes went wide and he stared at me pleading for help. I bit my lip to stop from laughing and nodded.

"Edward hun, why don't you lay with me?" I purred. Not to be self consious or anything but I'm pretty sure I did a better job of purring too. Edward's eyes glazed over for a minute before he jumped up and wrapped his arms around me.

"Thanks." He whispered in my ear, but of course it was so low that Lauren wouldn't have heard it. I giggled making it look like he said something else and Lauren stomped out cursing under her breath. As soon as she was out of ear shot I laughed.

"Why would they ever hire her?" I gasped out after my laughing fit.

"I think her mother works her if I'm being honest. This is just wonderfull." Edward grummbled.

"What's wrong?" I asked worriedly placing my hand on his cheek without thinking. I was almost positive I seen him lean into it a little too but I'm not quite sure.

"I'm starting here as a new doctor in a few weeks. And if I have to work with her....." He shuddered pulling me closer. I had only just then realized that he hadn't let go of me yet, not that I actually cared. But I didn't want to seem to forward so I cleared my throat. He jumped up right away blushing slightly. "Sorry."

"It's fine. I actully didn't mind it, but I didn't want to seem forward." I admitted smiling slightly. He laughed and st back in his chair. We spent a good hour and half learning about each other. I was already head over heels for him, just like in my dream. Maybe I'm turning into Alice or something. She always said when something important was about to happen she would see it in a dream before anything else.

After the second hour passed Alice called.

"Hey Al. What's up?" I asked trying to keep the laughter out of my voice as Edward hid from Lauren who had just passed by the door.

"2 things to say and then I really have to go so don't interupt." She gasped. "First, we won't be able to come back to see you today cause apparently Esme really needs our help with something very important that she won't tell us about, and second, Mike Newton over heard us saying that you were in the hospital and is on his way over there. He's probably in the building now!"

And with that she hung up. I hung up hurridly. Edward had gotten up now and was looking at me confused. "What's wrong Bella?" He asked. I was going to explain to him that I needed his help the same way he had needed my hlp before but I could already see Mike heading towards my door from the large window, and I knew thathe could see me. So I did the only thing I could think of.

I pulled Edward on top of me with my one hand and kissed him fiercly. I could feel how shocked he was but after a minute he respnded kissing me back. Dispite the fact that I was only doing this to keep Mike away, it felt too good. So I kept going. My left hand tangled in his hair pulling him closer to me, since my other arm wasn't aload to move, and his arm wrapped around my waist while the other tanled in my brown locks.

I heard the door slam open and Edward jumped up quickly panting just as much as I was. Mike was fuming, his hands balled into fists, and his jaw clenched. He took a step forward, but froze whenI grbbed Edward's hand. I knew that Mike was going to say he was my boyfriend or someting so Edward needed to know who this boy was.

"Edward, meet Mike. Remember I told you about him on IM?" I asked casually. Edward looked confused for a moment but then his eyes flashed with anger as he understood.

"So this is the guy that Alice set you up with?" He replied just as casually. "Did she stop apologizing yet?"

"Not yet. But she will soon." I grinned.

"Apologizing for what? We had a great time on our date." Mike said firmly, glaring at Edward. I don't know why he bothered since there was no way he could beat Edward in a fight. I had no idea what to say to that, that wouldn't hurt his feelings, but luckily Edward saved me.

"Well you see Alice hadn't known that Bella and I were together when she set the date up and Bella was in a frenzy, because she thought I wouldn't understand if I had seen you both. Luckily, I know my Bells loves me so I didn't mind, but Alice won't stop apologizing." He shook his head in fake dissapontment. I wanted to laugh, but my heart swelled when he was saying that we loved each other.

"You tow are in... love." Mike choked. Edward was about to say something but I cut him off wanting to help him out.

"Why wouldn't I love him? He's perfect." I sighed to add effect and Edward grinned.

"As are you, love." He added, giving me a chaste kiss. I grinned, and pulled him next to me so that we were laying together. He laughed and wrapped an arm around me kissing my head lightly. Mike huffed and sat down in the arm chair. I rested m head on Edward's shoulder and turned it lightly so I could whisper in his ear.

"We'll have to make this convincing if we want him to leave." I whispered.
