HEEEELLLLOOOOOO PEOPLE!!! Haha sorry. Anyway, how are you guys? I know I've been great, because I've been looking at Twilight sites, reading the series, everything that has to do with Twilight. Haha I know I'm a freak. :] Thanks for your suggestions and comments about the Twilight movie!
I don't know why, but for some reason the website is making this chapter underlined, and I don't know how to fix it, which is very strange. Hm…. Maybe it'll get fixed later. Anyway, it shouldn't make a difference to the content of the chapter.
Disclaimer: I don't own The Twilight Saga or any of it's characters. Also, I do not own Advil. J

I was really getting worried about Bella now. She wasn't eating as much as she used to, and her face grew more pallid every day.
Maybe she just needs some time in the sun and fresh air, I thought.
I picked the perfect day. The sun shone brilliantly in the clear blue sky, and birds chirped merrily just outside out bedroom window. A "fairytale" kind of day, I thought as I smiled at Bella's delicate face. This probably one of the only times Bella actually slept through the whole night, sound asleep. Her head lay gently on the satin pillow, her cheeks flushed a soft pink. Perhaps she was having a good dream.
I slid quietly out of bed, and put on the pair of beige slippers Bella had bought me a while back. As I walked past the window, the sunlight hit my skin and shone brilliantly. My arms, which were only partly covered by a short-sleeved t-shirt, sparkled shining right on Bella's face. I quickly dodged out of the sun's rays before I woke her up. But, I was too late.
Bella groaned and shifted around in the bed.
'Shit.' I thought, inwardly kicking myself.
She sat up and yawned, then kicked her feet out of bed.
"Good morning, Edward," she mumbled sleepily. She stood up, and almost instantly fell back down again. I rushed to her side, rubbing my hand in circular motions on her back.
"Are you alright?" I asked concern evident in my voice.
"Yeah, don't worry. I'm fine. Just a little morning dizziness, that's all. Haven't you had that before?" Then she stopped herself, remembering something important. She blushed, appearing to be ashamed that she forgot this aspect of me. "Sorry. Forgot you weren't human."
I smiled.
"It's alright. Even I forget every once in a while," I said, still rubbing my hand on her back.
She sighed.
"Are you feeling any better, sweetheart?" I asked.
"A little bit. At least I slept well last night." I had to agree with her there. She slept like a rock, not even shifting positions. I wondered idly what she dreamt about that could keep her so sound asleep.
"Well, I think I've found a remedy that is sure to at least give you some more energy."
She grimaced.
"Oh, don't tell me it's more medicine…" she groaned. "I think if I have to take any more Advil, I'm going to throw up." I had constantly been feeding Bella Advil tablets to relax her stomach, as she had been complaining that it was hurting her. I knew she hated it, but I so desperately wanted her to be better. It killed me watching her in pain.
I laughed at her expression.
"No need to worry, Bella. It's not something your going to consume. Come with me."
I took her hand and guided her out of the small cottage. I carried her once we got outside for fear she might not be able to walk much longer. She covered her eyes as instructed for approximately ten minutes until we came upon a meadow with raspberry bushes scattered around it. Tiny little raspberries dotted each bush, standing out in torrents of green. Lush grass swayed gently in the light breeze, creating an almost inaudible rustling sound. The sun, which was brilliant and glowing this morning, had been clouded over on the way, and just as we arrived, a ray of light appeared out of the clouds, shining on my face. Bella's face lit up as the sparkles that radiated off me shone on her delicate face, giving her an angelic glow.
I set Bella carefully on her feet, and grabbed her waist as she stumbled slightly.
"Careful now, Bella. We're here," I said.
She opened her eyes and I watched as she marveled the area.
"Oh, Edward. It's beautiful."
I must say I agreed with her. The sun that had just been shining on me had now spread to cover the whole area, giving it a certain warmth to it. Flecks of light caught on the ends of the blades of grass, which still had dew from this morning. The light hitting the dew droplets projected all sorts of colors on the ground, trees, and bushes, almost like there were little crystals embedded in the grass.
"Well, I brought some baskets so you can take some berries home, if you'd like," I offered.
She turned and beamed at me.
"I would love that! Thank you, Edward! This is sure to help me get better."
I smiled at her excitement and handed her the empty, woven basket.
She pecked me on the cheek, and dashed off to the nearest bush, not showing any of signs of the earlier weariness. I sat down in the grass and watched her pick berries off the bushes and either eat them, or put them in the basket. Whenever she popped one into her mouth, I pleasant smile spread across her face. I couldn't help but feel proud that I had chosen this perfect spot for her.
Without warning, she stopped. Just froze, her smile wiped off her face. I cocked my head to the side, and stood up, wondering if she was okay.
And that was when I saw it. A fiery red flame. Only I knew it wasn't just a flame. It was her. Victoria.
Sorry to leave you hanging, but that's where I'm gonna and it for today! Again, so sorry my chapters are short, but that's just my way of writing. I hope I will get better at writing longer chapters, though. Give me a review, and I'll be sure to write the next chapter as soon as possible!
