Bella awoke in a huge bed with familar arms wrapped around her. She sort of remembered this place, eyes darting around the room then to him, Carlisle she remembered. He opened his eyes watching her and she smiled "where are we?" He pulled her tighter "my bedroom. I don't think you've ever really been in this room until last night, so if it doesn't look familiar to you then that's why. I should have took you to Alice's room and we could have slept there until you regain more memory." She was still in pain from the accident, she groaned in pain a little.
"No this is perfect Carlisle" pressing a kiss to his chisled chest then her stomach growled lightly, she had slept almost 13 hours in his arms. She hadn't slept much at the hospital the day before so she had been tired. Moving to her elbow over looking him, left hand came up to his chest rubbing soft circles across his abs "I really can have you all to myself?" she bit her lip and giggled softly. His hands grabbed her quickly rolling putting her under him with a big smile "yes my love. I love you Bella Swan. I have since the first day I met you."
Running her hands through his hair tossing it a little. One hand moved from his hand tracing down the side of his neck to his face, eyes searching every feature. He was so sexy, so handsome, sweet, caring, a total badass vampire doctor and he loved her. Smiling at her thoughts as he stayed leaning over her, he smiled then chuckled softly seeing the wheels turning in her mind "Bella? I'm scared to ask what you're thinking right now but I do know you are hungry. Why don't we go to the kitchen, I'm sure Rosalie has already begun cooking."
Sighing "just one kiss first" looking up with big dark puppy dog eyes he couldn't resist then leaned on over taking her lips with his. Shock ran throughout his body with this kiss, almost too overwhelming for him, might not could break this kiss this time. Her legs came out of the covers wrapping around his waist pulling him closer as the kiss deepened. His hand ran up the side of her thigh, the other gripped around the side of her waist. If he didn't stop now, there would be no way he could and he might hurt her with her injuried. He went to break the kiss but she moaned softly, hands gripping his naked back. He thought this might be too soon for her since she the accident and not much of a memory. He couldn't take advantage of her like this. As his thoughts were convincing him to stop she had pushed him over now straddling his lap carefully never breaking the kiss but a few groans from pain.
He wanted to make love to her but not until she regained more memory he moaned softly darted his tongue in her mouth and danced with hers. He pulled back quickly "Bella. I'm sorry but we need to wait. I'm scared it's too soon from the accident" he sighed feeling horrible to doing this. He was taken back when she giggled softly "I'm sorry. I said just one kiss and I understand." A smirk spread to his face "Bella." He laughed kissing her quickly again then picked her up getting off the bed.
"You can dress or just throw my robe on over you. I'm sure everyone will want to throw some old memories out there. Emmett's probably will be all the times he has embarrassed you" walks from his bathroom back to her handing her a robe to put over her skimpy sleepwear, which he found very attractive. His eyes skimmed over her sexy figure before she slid the robe on. Carlisle would hear it from Edward about all the dirty thoughts later, he was sure about it. He smiled to himself at the thought of Edward's speech to come as he grabbed a white t-shirt and pulled it over his head.
Bella tied the robe, noticing how the deep red looked good on her "I like this robe. I want one like this in my size, but it has to smell like you too. Maybe you could wear it around for me to get your scent on it."
He shook his head "as long as it's not pink and none of them see me do it. I'll never live that down." reaching for her hand "let's get you some food." They wlaked out heading towards the kitchen. Bacon and pancakes coule be smelt all through the house. Jasper was cooking with Rosalie. Emmett and Edward were sitting watching them as they all talked.
Alice came up behind them 'Morning!" big smile on her face. Bella giggled "good morning." Her eyes focusing on each of them trying to remember different things about them.
Emmett looked over "hey Bella! I thought I should help you remember things today. I should drive you around today."
"Oh no you don't! Not alone you're not. You'll have her thinking she likes snakes and lizards which grosses her out." Rosalie pointed the black plastic spoon at him "you know you would."
Emmett busted out "well, it could help her fears. Snakes and lizards aren't that bad my Rose. I could be therpy."
Bella's eyes widened "I don't like snakes and lizards. I also remember that Rosalie calls you Monkey Man from the baseball game you guys played not long ago."
"She sounds armed and dangerous Emmett. She got you on that one big man." Edward choked out.
Bella stood there thinking. Carlisle nudged her from the doorway to walk on in breaking her thoughts. She walked on in sat at the kitchen bar betweem Edward and Emmett. A knock at the door had Alice bolting to it. Everyone wasn't paying attention to any one driving up. Alice almost fell out seeing who it was. She lead them inside towards the kitchen. "Guys..." she called getting their attention.
They all turned around and then room went silent until Rosalie seeing who it was and then dropped a glass on the floor shattering it.
.
Edward quickly stood "get out! You should not have come here yet."
Jasper froze, emotions shooting through him like a wild fire. Mike was remember everything from the accident, he was the one that had been driving drunk. His eyes looking at Bella seening her alive, then remember how scared when his truck hit her and seeing her laying in her car looking dead. He was an emotional roller coaster and looked as if he has been drinking before he got there. Carlisle looked to Jasper. Alice started freaking out "Jaz?" running to his side then waved her head in front of his eyes "snap out of it."
Rosalie smarted off "we know you were the drunk driver Mike, we don't want you here" grabbing a pony tail holder off the counter, she pulled her hair back out of her face, eyes still locked on him.
"I had to see her. I thought she was dead then I was told she came here to recover. I'm so sorry Bella." He started walking toward her to hug her and she moved from the bar stool wincing in pain "who are you and why are you trying to hug me? do I know you?" He stopped and stared "Bella? It's Mike. We've had numerous classes together from high school and now college. wait, you don't remember?"
Carlisle walked up standing my him "she is suffering from memory loss. It should only be temporary, maybe a couple of weeks. She snuck out of the hospital trying to go home but not knowing where she lived, I found her walking on the side of the road. She sort of remembers me so I told her to live here until she regains her memory." Carlisle wasn't going to go into much detail with Mike. They were all pissed. "You don't look so good Mike." His eyes looked him over.
"I can't sleep. I can't eat. I feel horrible about what happened to her. I should have never tried to be man enough to drive after the party the football team had. I just wanted to fit in and now look what I have done. I'm so glad she is okay. I'll never drink again!" Mike began to cry. Alice walked over putting her arms around him hugging him gently. Carlisle took a deep breath eyes back to Bella's reaction.
Bella didn't know what to do, grabbing Edward's forearm then pulled on him "outside motioning to the back door. He looked down at her expression and went as she requested. Bella remained silent looking out into the beautiful trees hearing Edward shut the back door behind him. It was raining again but at least the porch was covered. Edward watched her in silence. She moved to a rockin chair and sat down carefully wincing from the broken ribs "he sounds sincere" looking down at the plank flooring. Edward nodded not sure what to say.
Emmett looked out the kitchen window checking on Bella. He felt very protective of her, like she was his little sister then his eyes cut back to Mike crying.
Jasper couldn't take it, he went outside where Bella and Edward were. "Bella" walking over. "He is seriously sorry. He knows he was wrong, he can't stand the sight of himself in the mirror. I can't take this emotional roller coaster coming from him. He is completely torn on the inside. You need to say something, anything. I know it's hard for you to. You don't remember him. I know we all hate him for doing this to you but he hates himself more than we hate him. He could hurt himself. "
Bella nodded "I understand Jasper" tears filling her eyes. She thought a moment then slowly got up eyeing Edward then Jasper before walking back in the door "I forgive you...Mike" wow she almost forgot his name. "It was a accident. I'm okay. I don't want to cry okay, it hurts to laugh much less cry. Please don't be upset." She walked closer "just don't hug me until I heal a little more."
He looked up red eyed, tears streaming down his face "I'm so sorry Bella"
"I know. It's over with. Please don't think about it anymore." her eyes looked around at everyone then back at him "do you want to eat some breakfast? I was about to eat and there's plenty for two of us." She felt bad for him even though she should be mad.
He looked over at the food then at the Cullen's who were giving him a encouraging half smile now then back at Bella "well...sure." wiping his face with his hands.
Emmett wasn't too happy about this. He could kill Mike for doing this to his family member. Edward walked over to Mike "wanna go wash up? Have you even taken a bath since the accident?" He noticed he hadn't "look, use my shower. I have some extra clothes you can wear and then we'll add a little more food." He walked Mike to his room grabbing a towel and clothes for him "here." handing them to him "take your time." Edward shut the door and headed back to the kitchen.
Carlisle had Bella in his arms holding her gently "Bella, that was really sweet of you. I feel sorry for him." He placed a kiss to the top of her head "you are so brave and so strong."
Jasper walked back in, "since it's raining I'm heading to the mall. It's suppose to start storming, so it will be a good day to shop."
"Ooo! I want to go! I can by Bella some new clothes and other things!" Alice jumped up and down.
Carlisle chuckled "okay. See you guys later." He watched Jasper and Alice leave in a flash.
Rosalie whipped up some extra pancake, bacon and eggs. Emmett cleaned up the broken glass for Rosalie as she cooked.
Mike would be coming back down soon. This should be a interesting day. Maybe he could help Bella remember some things and she could help him heal internally.
Carlisle sat by Bella, pulling her into his arms, against his chest. She snuzzled her face against him then leaned back whispering "I love you Carlisle." He smiled "I love you too Bella. Are you okay with this? Mike being here?" She nodded "I don't remember him." Carlisle's expression relaxed "okay. If you feel unconfortable at any time, please tell me."
Mike showered and had come back down stairs, feeling a lot better now. He knew he needed to go home, get some sleep and relax. He walked into the kitchen smelling food. Rosalie handed Bella and then him a plate of food. He asked Carlisle "do you think I could get a ride home and maybe one of those relaxing pills you told me about?" Carlisle nodded "sure thing. You should really take a few with you. I have some in my office. Be right back." Carlisle walked off leaving his seat open and Rosalie sat down by her. Bella smiled "this is really good food Rose."
Rosalie smiled "thanks and did you know you just called me Rose? You use to call me that." Bella smiled "it felt natural to say."
Carlisle came back in the room with a pill bottle with 10 zanax, reaching out handing it to Mike "for now, take one in the morning and one before bed at least for the next two days since it's the weekend. Then Monday, start taking a hour before you go to bed. I'll really help. might want to go ahead and take one now. I'll drive you home." Mike nodded "thank you Dr. Cullen." Bella and mike finished eating. Mike trying to remind her of things that had happened in the past, not really jarring her memory just yet. Mike took a pill and drank it down with some coke.
Carlisle grabbed his keys then kissed Bella quickly, "come on Mike. If you want to some visit tomorrow, I'll have someone pick you up. For now, you should rest." Mike nodded and quickly hugged Bella lightly not wanting to hurt her bruises. "Bye Mike. See you later." Bella said softly watching them both leave.
Later, Bella and Rosalie went to the living, sitting on the nice plush couch. Bella snuggled up with a large red fleece blanket and they were watching tv when Carlisle came back a hour later. Carlisle had stayed and talked to Mike, making him feel better until he went to sleep then he left. "I'm back." shutting the door behind him then removing his black dress shoes at the front door. Bella looked up "how is he?" Carlisle walked toward her then sat down by her on the couch "he will be just fine. He needs some sleep."
Bella leaned over putting her head on Carlisle's shoulder "I'm begining to remember a few things here and there."
Rosalie laughed "mostly all about you Carlisle. ALL about you."
"Rosalie!"
"Sorry. It's not a bad thing. You're totally in love with him. You two have waited long enough to get together, even though Bella doesn't remember us too much" Rose laughed. "Maybe when everyone gets back later, we should have a story telling time like Emmett said. I think that will help. Take her mind off of you Carlisle. We can't have you being conceided now."
He chuckled "What all has been said about me then?"
Bella's hand went over her mouth, her eyes narrowed at Rosalie in a 'don't you dare' stare.
Rosa laughed "can't tell girls secrets" then mouthed "tell you later."
Bella laughed "that's not fair." Carlisle chuckled "oh no, that's totally fair."
