I do not own Twilight! I own Eric, The Donovans, Chase, Emile and whatever other people appear in the story that are not in the Twilight Series.

ENJOY!

Chapter 7

Wakings, Fights, and Distress

Eric's POV

I saw Grandpa Carlisle's car pull into the driveway a few hours later, followed by my father's silver Volvo. I paced the room and finally sat down. I heard the front door open and a rush of footsteps on the stairs.

"Where is she?" my father asked.

"Over on the bed." I said pointing.

"How long has she been out now?" my grandfather asked me.

"About fifty hours." I said getting up and sitting on the edge of the bed.

"The Rohypnol is affecting her terribly." my father said.

"What do you mean?" I asked panicking.

"I can smell the injection. It was not pure Rohypnol. It had Rohypnol in it." my father replied.

"What was in it?" I asked.

"It has a chemical paralytic in it, along with a barbiturate." my grandfather replied.

"What are those?" I asked.

"Chemical paralytics are paired with ultra-fast acting barbiturates, thus you have a lethal injection, but when paired with Rohypnol, it can affect vampires. She hasn't been given enough to kill her." he replied.

"Can she be helped?" I asked nervously.

"Yes. She needs a transfusion. What is her blood type?" my father asked.

"It's AB negative." Victor replied.

"Is anyone here AB negative or O at all?" Carlisle asked.

"I am AB negative." I said.

"Eric Cullen, What are you doing." my father asked.

"I am saving Selena." I said.

I sat down in a chair and pulled my sleeve up. I felt the needle prick into the vein at the crook of my arm and winced slightly. I watched him take enough blood to leave me feeling tired and faint. I barely even felt him pull the needle away.

"Eric!?" my father called frantically.

"Wha…" I trailed off.

"Wake up, Eric." he said.

I passed out.

Talon's POV

I looked over at Selena from my spot on her bedroom floor. I felt Eric's emotions go haywire and mine went with them. I should have been there to protect Selena from Chase. I remember the day I met him, after I had joined Victor and Selena. It was a rainy day and we were passing through Italy on our way to Scotland, I had taken a smell of the air after Selena had gone into a shop. I was immediately aware of someone like us; I saw a dark haired man walking towards us and pulled myself up to my full height. He stopped at Victor and exchanged greetings.

"Hello, Victor." he said.

"Hello, Chase." Victor had replied.

"Who is your new child?" Chase asked.

"This is Talon." Victor replied.

"Hello, Talon. It is very nice to make your acquaintance." he said extending his hand.

"Likewise I'm sure." I replied stiffly, refusing his hand.

"Well, Victor, I must be off and be sure to tell Selena that I said 'Hello'." he said and walked off.

Neither, Victor or I had told Selena that Chase had said hello. We kept it a secret between us for years. I had never expected Chase to show up and do this to her.

I was not aware of the bustle going on around me; I was too absorbed in my own thoughts. I sat there and mulled over the fact that Selena was unconscious because of a drug that was almost quadruple the dose given to humans. I could not do anything until I heard a huge thud and saw Eric lying on the floor passed out. I got up quickly and ran over to him to see what was wrong.

While I was in my own little world, Eric had given up a lot of blood for Selena's transfusion. I picked him up and laid him on the bed beside my sister; he was very pale and sickly looking. I sat back down on the floor and waited for one of them to wake up.

The Next Day

Eric's POV

I woke up later on and looked at Selena's bedroom clock. It was ten PM, twenty-four hours after I had given my blood to Selena. I looked over at her and her eyelids started to flutter, I smiled and kissed her cheek. I got up very carefully and walked downstairs.

Selena's POV

I woke up to a shifting in my bed. I felt like I had been asleep for days. The last thing I remembered was Chase, my line of thought halted and I bolted upright in my bed giving myself head rush. I moaned and as soon as the sound left my lips, I heard footsteps on the stairs, followed by my uncrushed bedroom door being broken again, with the full weight on Ronan flying across the floor. I laughed weakly.

"Are you okay?" they all asked at the same time.

"I am fine." I insisted, "I just gave myself head rush."

"Hey, babe." Eric said calmly coming into the room.

"Hi" I said softly.

"How are you feeling?" he asked as he sat on the edge of my bed.

"I'm a little dizzy and hungry." I said hugging him.

"I can fix the hunger." he said pulling out a large mug of blood.

"Is that human?" I asked looking at is suspiciously.

"No its Mountain Lion. I got it just a little a while ago when I went out to feed." he replied.

"Good." I said snatching the mug and draining its contents.

I looked at Eric and noticed how pale he was.

"Are you alright, Eric, you don't look too good." I said.

"Yea I know I am the ugly duckling." he said laughing breathlessly.

"That isn't what I mean, Eric Anthony Cullen." I said.

"Yea, I know. I'm not feeling so good." he said.

"He gave you a lot of blood, Selena." Victor said to me.

"He did what!?" I yelled.

"He let Carlisle take a lot of blood from him for you." he repeated.

"How much?" I asked holding Eric on the bed.

"About half of what was in his body." Carlisle replied.

"How could you, Eric?" I asked.

"I…had…too." he said running out of breath.

"No you didn't." I whispered.

"Yea…I did." he said before passing out.

"Eric!" I yelled.

"Selena, it will be alright. His body is sleeping he will be okay." Edward said lifting him and putting him on my bed beside me.

"Will he wake soon?" I asked.

"He should." Carlisle said.

"Okay, I'm going to take a nap. How long was I out?" I asked curiously.

"Almost five days. Eric was starting to worry that you would never wake up. It scared him when there was nothing he could do." Edward replied.

"I know that now." I said.

I looked at Eric's sleep form and hoped he would wake soon. I was so scared that Chase would come back and I did not want to be alone.

"Victor, what happened to Chase?" I asked.

"He is in the basement." he replied without hesitation.

"Why?" I asked in panic.

"He is chained to the wall. It's alright." he replied and walked out of the room.

I fell back into a dreamless slumber and hoped that I would wake before Eric.

Victor's POV

I walked out of Selena's bedroom and walked into my study. I pushed the door open and went to my desk. I sat down hard in the dark leather chair and buried my face in my hands. Eric meant so much to Selena and now there was a risk of her loosing him. I spun my chair around and faced the bookshelf behind my desk. As I stood up, I heard a knock on the study door.

"Come in." I said softly, knowing that whoever it was would hear my reply.

"Hello, Victor." Carlisle said, I would know my 'brother' anywhere.

"Hello, my friend." I replied with a smile.

"How have you been these last few decades." he asked.

"I have been fairly well. My family though, you will have to ask them." I replied wryly.

"What has happened." he asked genuinely curious.

"We are being hunted. I do not know by who though." I replied running a hand angrily through my hair.

"When did it start?" he asked.

"About three years ago." I replied.

"Do you have a clue as to who it might be?" he asked sitting in a chair in front of my desk.

"I think he might be a friend of Chase's" I replied and sat down at my desk. I was in for the long haul.

Unknown POV (but I know who)

I sat outside the house while everything was going on. I heard the panic and felt it too. Something was wrong but I could not go inside at all. I was waiting out here for the opportune moment to strike. Selena was down so her telepathic powers were down and out for the count. It was going to be soon I could feel it.

Selena's POV

I woke up a little while later to the sound of thunder rattling my window panes. I turned over and felt Eric's solid warm body and his chest moving up and down gently with sleep. I smiled quietly and curled up into his chest.

"Selena?" he asked moving his arms around me.

"Yes." I replied.

"I love you." he said and looked down at me with a smile.

"I love you, too, Eric." I replied as he began to sing.

Every time our eyes meetThis feeling inside meIs almost more than I can takeBaby when you touch meI can feel how much you love meAnd it just blows me awayI've never been this close to anyone or anythingI can hear your thoughtsI can see your dreams

I was completely awed by the tenor of his voice.I don't know how you do what you doI'm so in love with you, it just keeps getting betterI wanna spend the rest of my life with you by my sideForever and everEvery little thing that you doBaby I'm amazed by you

As he sang the last line of the chorus, I was smiling like an idiot.

Every time our eyes meet
This feeling inside me
Is almost more than I can take
Baby when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away
I've never been this close to anyone or anything
I can hear your thoughts
I can see your dreams

I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you

The smell of your skin
The taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me
Baby you surround me
You touch every place in my heart
Oh it feels like the first time every time
I wanna spend the whole night in your eyes

I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you

Every little thing that you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Oh, every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you

He finished the song and I was almost asleep when I heard a crash coming from the living room.

"What was that?" I asked anxiously.

"I don't know." he replied getting up.

"Wait for me!" I whispered.

"Hurry up!" he whispered back.

I bolted up from the bed and donned on clothes at vampric speed. I opened the door and saw Victor coming out of his study.

"What is going on?" he asked.

"I don't know." I replied and headed for the stairs.

I walked quietly down the stairs and saw someone I never thought I would see again.

"Emile!" I gasped, shocked.

"Why, Hello, Selena." he drawled.

"Why are you here?" I asked.

"Well, I will explain…" he replied.

"Good. You can start with why the hell you are in my living room." I yelled.

"I thought you might have guessed, Selena. I am ashamed." h said shaking his head.

"Tell me why you are here." I replied threateningly.

"I am here to take you back, Selena. Along with Chase," he paused, "I am disappointed in you, Selena. I thought you knew better than to assume I was gone for good."

"Well, you thought wrong." I sniffed indignantly.

"No need to be like that, Selena." he said with a smug smile on his face.

I looked from his face to Eric's and in a matter of seconds Eric was lying unconscious on the floor and had bite marks in his wrist. I mustered up all of my energy and my eyes turned black. I crouched and growled low in my chest. I was pissed. I looked at him and he no longer wore the smug smile, he was frightened.

"What do you think your doing in my home, harming my family?" I asked in a low voice.

"Getting my revenge?" he asked his voice raising a few octaves.

"Wrong." I said before hitting him with the full brunt of my power.

As he shrieked and burnt from the inside out, I walked over to Eric and lifted him. I ran from the patio where the fight had ended up and into my room. I laid Eric on my bed and sat in beside him. I had decided that I would not leave his side until he woke up.
