I do not own Twilight. I own the Donovans and Eric. Along with the other people that might appear in the story that are not a part of the Twilight Saga.

Chapter 6

Drugs and Panic

Eric's POV

I called Selena. I missed her terribly. I was useless without her, I needed her.

The phone rang six times before someone picked up.

"Hello?" someone asked pathetically.

"Selena?" I asked.

"This is she." she replied sniffling.

"This is Eric." I said stupidly.

"Yea I know. Caller ID." she said simply.

"How are you?" I asked.

"How do I sound?" she asked angrily.

"Not good." I said.

"Wow." she said sarcastically.

"Selena, I am so sorry. I have been miserable. Ever since I left, I have done nothing, I haven't slept, and I can't eat. I miss you." I said hurriedly.

"You should have thought about that before you left, Eric. I can't do anything. You are my lifemate, or at least I thought you were. If you had been, you wouldn't have left. You killed me, dealt me more than my dead heart could take." she said with finality.

As she hung up the phone, I did something I had never done before, I cried. I went up to my room and climbed into bed and didn't move. Sometime later I heard my father talking on the phone. I got up out of my bed and walked downstairs. As I rounded the corner I heard my dad speaking urgently to someone.

"I have to talk to you." my father said urgently into the phone.

"Why, you ruined my life?" I heard a female voice say.

"I am very sorry, Selena. I never meant to hurt you and Eric like that I need to fix this." he said.

"Alright, Edward but if you make this any worse you very existence will cease to be." she said.

"I know. I will make it better, Selena. I swear." he said and shut the phone.

"Why were you talking to Selena?" I asked my father.

"We are going to see Selena." he said.

"She hates me, Dad." I said turning away from him.

"You are coming with me." he said as he picked me up and ran with me to South Carolina, and ultimately to Selena.

We got to Selena's house and knocked on the door. Victor answered giving me and my father nasty looks as he went to get Selena.

I watched Selena come down the stairs and couldn't take my eyes off her.

"I know why you're here, Edward. Alright, spill, Cullen." she said.

"Eric, go out of hearing range." my father told me.

"Why?" I asked looking at Selena.

"Because I told you to." my father replied.

"I will be back soon." I said taking off but I stayed in hearing range.

"Go into the living room, Edward. You are going to start explaining now." I heard Selena say.

"Alright. I will start at the beginning." my father said and I heard the leather couch squeak.

"Good." Selena replied sitting down on what I assumed to be the piano bench

"Okay, Eric called me about two days ago and told me that he had found someone that claimed to be his true lifemate. When I asked who it was he simply said, "Selena Donovan." I sat there in my home in Portland baffled that you, Selena Donovan, had fallen in love with my son, and not only was he your lifemate he was your Singer." my father said, sounding very disbelievingly.

"So what you thought it impossible for me to fall in love." she said incredulously.

"No, quite the opposite, but I didn't think it would be my son." he replied.

"So you made up stories and got him to leave?" she asked.

"Yes, I did. I congratulated myself on my manipulation and thought that he would be fine. I was very wrong." my father replied with pain in his voice.

"You should have thought about the repercussions before you did it, Edward. I'm surprised that Alice didn't have a vision." she said.

"I told her not to look." he said before I walked back in.

"Hello, Selena." I said sitting on the couch beside my father.

"Eric." she said simply.

"I'm so sorry!" we said at the same time, laughing and hugging.

"What I am wondering is why you doubted me." she asked.

"I don't know. It felt like I had false emotions, like Uncle Jasper was using his powers on me." I said turning to look at his father.

"What is it, Eric?" I asked.

"You didn't, did you?" I asked him.

"Yes, I did." he said.

"Why?" I whispered.

"I don't know." he said ashamed.

"I don't know you anymore." I said turning away from my father and pulling Selena into a hug.

"I'm sorry, Eric." he said getting up and leaving.

"Eric?" she asked touching my shoulder.

"Yes, sweetheart?" I asked in return.

"Do you believe me when I say that you are my lifemate and my singer?" she asked.

"Yea, I do. I love you, Selena Donovan. You are my heart and soul." I said with a smile.

"Good. Hey, do you want to go to my room and watch a movie?" she asked getting off Victor's piano bench.

"Y-Yea." I stammered stupidly.

I looked at her, and she laughed.

"What is so funny?" I asked.

"The look on your face." she said and walked towards the stairs.

"I see." I said running up the stairs behind her.

Selena opened her bedroom door and got tackled from her left. I walked into the room silently as she was pushed to the floor and sneered at.

"Why are you here, Chase?" she asked.

"I'm here to see you and your 'breed'." he sneered.

"His name is Eric." she growled back. She hated anyone calling me a breed. Some people thought I was scum because of me being a half vampire.

He laughed insanely. "Eric, is it? Well, it's nice to meet you, Eric." Chase said with a smirking tone.

"I will ask you again, Chase Michaels, why are you here?" she groaned as he put his knee into her stomach.

"I am here to take back what you stole." he whispered with a laughing tone.

"What did I steal from you, Chase?" she asked.

"My sanity. I loved you, Selena. You were everything to me and you left to be with Victor." he breathed.

"I had to go with him. He gave me life, he gave me his nanos. I am alive because of Victor. I will not go." she hissed.

"He took you from me! He stole you." he breathed in her ear.

"He did not. I chose Victor, Chase. You must live with that." she said looking at me.

"Look at me!" he screamed.

She looked at me suddenly, there was worry etched all over her beautiful face. She looked back at Chase and grimaced in pain. I had to help her but I had no clue how.

"Who is out there?" Chase hissed.

"I don't know!" she breathed as his knee pushed deeper into her stomach just below her ribs.

"Selena, open the door!" Victor yelled.

I watched as Chase moved his knee up Selena's body to her chest, just above her lungs. I heard her breathing shorten and knew he was hurting her. I listened as Victor kicked open the door and Selena blacked out. I ran over and threw Chase off of her and picked her up, cradling her head in the crook of my elbow. I let out a low growl as Chase came closer to Selena and I. I let my fangs extend and my eyes turned black. I let the growls rip out of my chest, almost never stopping. Victor lunged at Chase and pinned him to the ground.

"What did you do to her!" he demanded.

"I injected her with a hefty dose of Rohypnol." he replied. (A/N Rohypnol is the Date Rape Drug.)

"Talon, Ronan, Take Chase here and lock him in the basement with the chains." Victor said.

I picked Selena up as they left the room and set her on the bed. Victor came over to me and felt of her forehead.

"She has been given a hefty injection of liquid Rohypnol." he said.

"The date rape drug?" I asked.

"Yes." he replied.

"So what do we do?" I asked.

"We wait." he replied and left the room.

I sat with Selena for hours, waiting on her to wake up and smile at me. After eighteen hours of her being in a drug induced sleep I started to feel the Dark Sleep take a hold of me. I crawled up in the bed beside Selena and as my breath left my body I smiled, because I was sleeping beside the love of my life.

I woke up a while later and saw that Selena was still asleep. I looked at the clock, it had been exactly twenty-four hours since I fell into the Dark Sleep. It had now been almost two days since the attack on Selena. I was worried that it would take a very long time for her to wake up. I reached into my pocket and pulled out my cell phone, I called my Grandfather.

"Hello." Grandpa Carlisle answered.

"Grandpa Carlisle, I need to know something." I said.

"Alright, what is it." he asked.

"I need information on a drug called Rohypnol." I said.

"Why?" he asked.

"Selena was injected with a hefty dose of it almost two days ago and she still hasn't woken up." I said.

"How did it get into her system." he asked.

"A cattle needle." I replied.

"I'm coming out there right now. I'll be there soon." he said.

My grandfather had been no help, so I decided to call my father.

"Hello?" he asked.

"Dad, its me. I need your help." I said.

"With what." he asked.

"I need info on a drug called Rohypnol." I said quickly.

"Why?" he asked.

"Selena was injected with a heavy dose of it. It was in liquid form." I replied.

"Oh My God, how long has she been out?" he asked.

"Almost two days." I said.

"Eric, call you grandfather and tell him that he needs to get there as fast as he can." he said.

"He is already on his way." I replied.

"Alright, I need you to get a blood sample from her." he told me.

"Okay." I said and pushed my fangs through my gums.

I bit Selena's wrist and let some blood flow into a small air tight container.

"I have the blood." I said.

"Good. Let it set until you grandfather gets there. I am on my way." he said.

I was worried about Selena, now more than ever. Everybody was making a huge fuss and I didn't know why. I waited until my grandfather was there and I heard the news.
