Ch.8 Alive again

Edward's Pov

Please don't be dead! Please don't be dead! Please don't be dead! Was all that was running through my mind as I spead down the road. It took me only minutes to park in the visiter's side and run through the door. I got a few strange looks from the nurses, and a really disgusting one from Lauren, but other than that people ignored me. It was a hospital after all.

About three steps away from the door Alice and the others caught up. I must have been slowing down as I got closer to my destination. Alice crashed through the door and her terrified gasp made the other's that I now noticed included Esme and Carlisle to run in after her. I hesitated and then walked in the door. The only thing that could be heard was the long everlasting beep of the IV.

"Bella! No!" shouted lungng towards her prepared to do CPR if I had to. But Carlisle grabbed my arm.

"She's gone Edward. There's nothing you can do." His voice was too calm. There were a few tears falling, but that was it. While all the girls were crying into there boyfriends chest, my mother's shoulders were shaking as she sobbed.

I pulled my arm away. "No! She can't be!" Before he could grab me again I was at Bella's side. I burried my face in her stomach and sobbed. There was no way I was going to be able to live wth out her. The past month had beem torture, I can't last for eternity. "Bella, please don't go."

I wasn't sure f anyone heard me as the boys had let their tears fall now. It was amazing how much ths girl effected us. Effected me. The door shut quietly and at that moment I knew I was alone. cred for who knows how long, when I heard the second most wonderfull sound in the world. The beep of an IV.

At frst I thought I was going crazy, but it continued, getting stronger every time. I must be imagining things. But then small fingers were running through my hair. But I could tell they were a little weak.

"Edward? Is that really you?" And there it was. The most beautifull sound in the world. The voce of an angel.

"Bella?" I rased my head, not caring that my eyes were probably red and my cheeks stained with tears. When she noticed she rased her hand to my cheek brushng aganst the tears with her thumb. A sigh escaped me and leaned nto her touch. "Am I dreaming?"

Bella's laugh filled the room. "Why would you think that?"

"The text you sent me Bella. When I got here it looked like you were already dead."

Her laughter faded and she seemed to pale. "I'm so sorry about that. I don't know what I was thinking. But I feel wonderfull now."

"Hold on one second." I grinned and stood to press the doctor button. Carlisle was in a minute later. His eyes were a little red but it was clear that he had washed the tears from his face. He stopped dead in his tracks when he saw Bella.

"Bella?"

She giggled and held her arms open. Carlisle laughed and hugged her tightly. "Where's everyone else?" She asked.

"I'll get them in a minute. First I need to take some blood."

Bella sighed but nodded holding out her arm. After that was done and Carlisle left, the other's bounded in. Screams and huggs were given and then we were all sitting aroung talking. Esme seemed to love telling stories about me adn Emmett. Unfortunatly Emmett wasn't embarrased at all while I was bright pink.

Bella's Pov

I can't believe I even considered giving up. This is something I couldn't miss.

"Any good stories about your boys Esme?" Alice giggled when Edward glared over at her from his spot by my side. I noticed he was wearing my necklace, and that made me grin.

"Oh yes I have a few good ones. Would you like to hear?"

There was a loud choris of yes from everyone except Emmett and Edward.

"Come on Eddie it won't be that bad." I whispered in his ear and he seemed to relax a little.

"Well, I remember when Carlisle used to take the boys to work with him. I tagged along from time to time just to get a good laugh. Edward would always be following Carlislie around, asking him how every little thing was done. I remember once he actually tried to follow him in, when Carlisle had to deliver a young woman's child."

I giggled. "It sounds like you were a cute kid." I whispered. That just made his blush darken.

"Emmett on the other hand was loud and obnoxious. Instead of following his father he would run down the hall ways, race on wheel chairs, and bug the nurses. There was one time he actually ran down the hall way in nothing except his boxer shorts."

That caused a round of laughter from the whole group even Emmett. "I'm sure he still does that now." Jasper teased nudging Em in the ribs.

"You know it, dude." Was Emmett's brilliant reply.

"Of course there was alos the arguments." Esme started a new story after wiping away the tears her laughter caused. Edward seemed to tense.

"Mother, don't you dare." He hissed. I giggled and leaned into his side.

"I want to hear." I stated, since it seemed like Esme was going to stop. Little by little Edward relaxed, wrapping his arms around me and pulling me up onto his lap.

"Fine." He sighed, ust barely loud enough for the rest to hear. Their jaws dropped, while Esme looked smug.

"As I was saying the boys got into a lot of arguments. There was one in particular I remember well." She chuckled. Edward's arms tightened a bit, and I knew he was embarrassed. I rubbed his arm soothingly, to relax him. "Emmett had had just gotten into his first break up I believe and he was a little angry. Edward being the good brother he is asked him what was wrong."

"Good brother." Emmett snorted earning a smack in the back of the head from Rosalie.

"Anyway. Emmett had pretty much screamed at Edward that he wouldn't know what was wrong because Edward had never had a girlfriend before. So of course Edward got defencessive and said that no one had caught his eye yet, which in turn made Emmett snort and ask if any guys had caught his eye yet. I was able to hear all of that from the kitchen, but Carlisle even heard the last part, when Edward basically screamed I am not gay at the top of his lungs."

I giggled with everyone else, exspecially when Edward his his blush by burrying his face in my neck. I closed my eyes trying my best not to sigh in content.

"Awwwww, Eddie's blushing." Emmett boomed, then there was a loud smacking noise. "Owww, Rosie. I giggled and felt Edward sigh so quietly I couldn't even hear it. It was truely heaven hear with him and I thanked god that I hadn't died.
