AN: Who do you think will win the world cup? (England obv.) :D I now have a laptop, therefore I will update like a mad, crazy person :)
Bit of a POV change, I wanted to do Alice's POV for once.
Chapter Three
Carlisle POV
Edward didn't leave Bella's side, in fact he refused to. It was nice to see them trying to rekindle their friendship first rather than their love. I'd had no news of Bella's daughter, only that she'd neither improved or gotten worse.
I got on with my work whilst my family where in the waiting room. I'd just finished putting a cast on my "lively" patient from before, when I saw Alice storming down the hall towards Bella's room.
"Alice, stop." I shouted.
Alice POV
I couldn't wait any longer. I've waited six years already, and they think an extra few hours would stop me? They're wrong. I stood up, despite everyone else's shouts. I stormed down the hall, and past Carlisle.
"Alice, stop." He shouted.
"Carlisle, I've waited so long to see Bella, I need to see her now." I told him.
I opened the door, to see Bella and Edward talking. She looked up with surprise. "Alice?"
"Oh my God, Bella!" I squealed. If was able, I would surely be crying a river by now. I hugged her tightly, but I felt her wince. "Sorry... I forgot about the, uh..."
It turned into an awkward silence. I faked a cough and sat on the edge of the bed. "I'm sorry for what happened." I whispered, looking down.
"It's not you're fault." She sighed.
"And I'm sorry we left," I said, she looked at Edward. "I trust he already talked about that?" I asked just to clarify I hadn't just sparked something. She nodded. "Good. I hear you had a daughter, congratulations. What's her name?"
Bella looked at her hands. "She doesn't have one, I haven't really thought about it. I didn't know this would happen."
"Of course, sorry." I said, "But if you can't think of one, my names always avaliable." I grinned, pointing to myself.
She chuckled, "Thanks Alice, I'll consider it."
"Good." I smiled. And Carlisle thought we'd crowd her. I thought towards Edward, he scowled at me.
"So what have you done since we left?" I asked, I heard Edward growl deep enough so only I could hear. I'm curious!
"I went to college here, graduated and got my own place." She said. A woman of many words. I thought. Edward bit his lip, but a smile crept onto his face.
"And when did you get pregnant?"
"He was my college boyfriend, but I caught him cheating on me before I found out I was pregnant."
"Does he know?"
"I should think so, I couldn't bare to face him so I left him a voicemail telling him."
"Good job you did," I said "he sounds like an ass." We both smiled.
Carlisle appeared at the door, all of us looking up at him. "Uh Bella, I've been told your baby is improving," Bella's face lit up. "woul you like to see her?"
"Of course."
"I'll just get you a wheelchair." He smiled.
Once he had the wheelchair, Edward and I went with Bella to the NICU. It was quiet, minus the many beeping machines. We all washed our hands, and Carlisle pushed Bella to the ventilator where her daughter was. She was tiny. She looked so fragile. It was hard to believe she was a baby. I looked at Bella, she had tears in her eyes, but she was smiling weakly.
"Bella, are you okay?" Edward asked.
"I'm fine. She's so small." She whispered. We all looked at the small baby in the cot, you could barely see her from all the wires and tubes. Bella's hand twitched towards it, "Can I touch her?"
Carlisle nodded, "Of course." Bella slowly lifted her hand to the cot and onto her daughter. She smiled immediately. "Hold her if you like."
Bella looked at Carlisle, and shook her head "No, not yet. I might..." She looked at the baby again, "I might break her," She chuckled softly, I'm guessing from her word choice.
"Okay, whatever you like." He said, before leaving the room.
"Ava." Bella whispered.
"What?" I asked.
"Her name, Ava. Ava Alice Swan." She smiled lovingly at 'Ava'. "It means 'life', and considering the situation, you know?" Edward and I chuckled. "She finally has a name."
"Little Ava," I said, "literally." I muttered after.
Edward put his hand on Bella's shoulder, and they smiled at each other. I knew that smile... love. Carlisle came back in, "Bella, I'm afraid you have to leave now, you need rest."
"Okay." She sighed, putting her hand gently on Ava. "I love you Ava."
"Ah, she has a name?"
We all nodded, "Seems so."
Carlisle chuckled, "You can come back tommorrow." He began wheeling her out.
We arrived back at Bella's room, and after we helped her back into the bed, she was asleep. Neither of us left the hospital, not until she was released. And because of Edward's 'begging', Carlisle was running some tests to determine why Bella had the blood clot.
I glided in the waiting area, "Where's Edward?" Esme asked.
"He won't leave Bella's side," I began "even though she's sleeping."
"Why am I not surprised?" Rosalie muttered.
"What's your problem?" I asked.
She scoffed, "My problem is that we came here for Carlisle's job, and just like before it's 'Bella, Bella, Bella'."
I gasped, "Rosalie, have you been under a rock for the past few hours? Bella almost lost her baby. If that hadn't of happened, then we wouldn't be here, would we?"
"Well knowing Edward he would of found some way of getting to her."
I was about to speak, when I had a vision:
It was a man in Bella's room. She was awake, so she knew he was there.
"I'm sorry for what I did Bella." The man sighed, "I love you."
"You're engaged, Nathan."
"But I still love you, no matter what happened. And my daughter needs me."
I blinked and gasped, catching everyone's attention. "Alice?"
"Oh my god." I whispered. The father of Bella's baby was coming here?
O-M-G! Cliffaaay lol :L
