Chapter three: The Bad News Will Come Anyway

Suddenly my forehead got cold in the middle, not wet, but moist. And there was this sweet, almost candy smell.

"Sweethart, it's time wake up now" Edward sweet soft voice came from the right. I would bet anyone that I could hear him from the other side of the world. I would test it if somebody made me but I would still have right. I knew him to good.

He was shaking me now, that wasn't like him, he must be excited or couldn't bare the wait anymore I guess that only could be good.

I rolled over to his side and opended my eyes and there was this bright light that came right from behind Edward -from my open windows, the were always open when he was here-, and it looked like he was a angel sent from heaven -but he would probably say that he was sent from hell- and it really looked like he was glowing.

He stood on his elbow so that he could kiss my forehead once agian, and then he rolled back.

"Good morning, my beauty" He greeted me, and then smiled that dazzling smile as usal.

"Hi" Was all I managed to choke out.

He just laughed at how I reacted and bent over to kiss my lips, we both closed our eyes and we were about to kiss, when I woke up.

It was always that stupid dream, why couldn't it be real? Why couldn't I have Edward by my side everytime I woke up, like I had before? Like in that stupid dream? Like I had before my 18th birthday? Before I opend those stupid presents, before he left me..

The only thing that was the same this morning as the dream, was the bright sun the shined through my open windows. Wait, what?

Open.

Were my windows really open?

I closed my eyes, the hardest I could managed, and opended them agian.

"Unbelievable" I breathed

I had always my windows just a little bit open -with the hook on, so the wouldn't blow up, but still so I would get some fresh air- , but not wide open as they were now!

Had somebody been here, while I slept? While Charlie slept? If somebody had been here, could it be Edward?

No, that was impossible. He had said that I would never see him agian, never agian. And the last time I saw him was in the woods September 19th. I didn't even have photos of him. Everything was gone, excerpt for my memories. He couldn't erase them.
But could he mean that he would be able to see me? How far away did he actually live? Or well, "lived".

Naa, there's no way he would vistit you. I thought for myself.

The next 20 minuets I stood in the shower, trying to clear my head from all those crazy thoughts. I went out and wraped a towel around me and started brushing my teeth. I really didn't feel the apptetite to eat breakfast. I would probably eat brunch later, if I felt the strength...

I went back to my rom, and straightened out my hair -which looked like a bird's neste and put on my sweats and started my ancient computer to check my emails.

While my computer started, I began to tap my fingers agianst my desk. I really didn't have the same patience as my ex-boyfriend had.

Eventully it started, and I login to my account. I had two new emails. I opend the first one -it was from my Renée.

`Hi honey!

How are you? Phil and I're great, you should come visit soon. I think you coulld need a weekend or two to get away from that boring grey town. Florida is wonderful! And really warm, I think you would like it.

What are you doing these days? I never hear anything from you later, have you heard anything from Edward yet?

Call me when you get time.

Love Mom.´

Why on earth did she think that I would hear anything from him? He had said straight and clearly that I would never see or hear anything from him agian! But of course she didn't know anything about that.

Or had he contacted her, and was tryning to get something out of me?

No, he would never do that, and particularly not her, I knew them both to good.

I started writing back.

`Hi Mom

Everything is fine-´ I lied `- I've just had much to do, and on my mind.´ That's was true anyway. `You know school, fixning stuff at home, hanging out with Jake etc.

But now I've time. Yeah, I think I could need a weekend of, but not right now. There's so much going on right now. Maybey after gradation. Can we talk about it later? But sure, I would probably like it, it seems nice.

No Mom, I haven't. And I probably never will. 'Cause the last thing he said to me was that this was the last time I would see and hear anything from him agian, so I don't think I will.

I may call you today, or someother day. I promise, this week.

Love Bella.´

After I've sent it I started to think about my time -and also my child-hood- in Phoenix.

As a little child I had spent so much time in the the garden and in the playground, that I had to shower everyday beacuse I was to dirty to even come in side.

But something had changed, 'cause when I got older, in my early teens, I'd spent all my time inside, both on my free time and in school. Maybey it was beacuse of the fact that I never had any real friends, that I was to afraid of to go out? To be left alone?

I didn't have a clue about how it felt to be left alone, when I was younger. Not when I have experienced this. This lonely, sad, pathetic world I lived in.

When I opend my next email I suddenly didn't feel so alone anymore, when I saw who the sender was.

It was from Carlisle.

I was to shocked to even read the mail, I just stared at the name. Blinded, But after a couple of minutes I got back to normal and I finded the only right decison.

I closed the email. Not delete it, just closed it. For now.

I usally was dazzled by anything that involved the Cullens, but this time I was blinded and confused.

I was sure as hell blinded and confused, literally too. 'Cause when I stood up, I suddenly felt dizzy and everything went black.

And that is the last thing I remember. The next second I woke up.

I looked around, it seemd that I was in the hospital. Great... At least I wasn't attached to any wires or stuff like that, except for one that looked like it took my bloodpressure. That one thing that goes `Dut.. Dut.. Dut.. Dut..´. And when you're about to die, or has died it is just ´Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep´. I guess that is how my heart sounds every day. Dead, without a reson to live. Or to love.

I looked out of the windows and saw that the sun was just over the mountains, so I guess that it was just over 07.00 AM.

Charlie slept in a chair on my left, and on the other side of the room Jake was sleeping on a couch. Good they both needed sleeping. Especially Jacob, given that he runs around like a wolf all night. Sam must have given him a free day or something like that. I was glad of that.

I didn't want to wake them up, so I continued to lie still in bed and looked up at the ceiling and waited for them to wake up so they could tell me what had happened. I almost died of inpatience.

I found a remote control -probably to the TV infront of me- on my nightstand, well it wasn't a nightstand. It was more of a little table, hospital-style.

When I picked it up my clumsiness would of course take over and I dropped it on the floor with a big thud. Perfect..

Jake immediatley got up on his feet and looked around, nervous and shocked by the sudden, loud sound.

"Sorry-" I whispered "- I didn't mean to wake you up. I would just switch channel, but now that stupid control is on the stupid floor. You wouldn't mind give it to me, and then promise to go back to sleep?"

"Why?" He asked confused

I lifted my arm as much the wire would allow and tried to shake it so that he would see that I was stuck.

"I know that, but I was wondering why you would want me to go back to sleep? You don't want to talk to me" He asked as he took up the remote and handed it over to me.

"Thanks-" I replied, still whispering "- of course I do, I just want you to get some sleep. You never do, and then I would like to get informed about what the fuck has happend?"

"Is there anyone who has been awakened on the wrong side of the bed today?" He teased, it really bugged me.

"Jake" I said out loud, almost to loud to wake up Charlie

"Fine" He gave up. "So you don't remember?"

I shoked my head

"That's not good"

"You don't say?" I snatched, to annoyed to be polite.

"Ouch!-" He mutter "-You always complain when I am being rude, but it is okay for you to be rude. What a hypocrites you are!" He thought he was teasing me, but now he was really getting under my skin.

I had not exactly been sleeping well either, I'd probably also need a good night's sleep. But this was not a good moment.

"Don't be a baby, just suck it up. I'm tired, okay?" I could really feel how the fatigue was spreading in my body. From the head and all the way to the toes. Every millimeter of it.

He just stood and looked at me with a untouched face like I was being an idiot, which I was. He didn't move a muscle. It was like he was frozen.

Which made me remember what had happend.

Frozen. The Cullens. Carlisle. The email.

That made me nervous. Time to put up a charade, with other words; time to pretend that I still didn't remember, I wanted to know what had happen after I passed out. I wanted to know all of it. So if I told Jake what had brought me here. He would just leave, and I could definitely not tell Charlie that I had received an email from Carlisle. He would be crazy and look them up directly.

But would he succeed? I wouldn't think so. As soon as they felt the scent of him they would run away to the next hiding place.

"Ehm, Jake…-" I started "I'm sorry about that, It's just that I haven't slept so good. So could you just tell me what had happend. Before I fell asleep. I'm relly curious" .

"First of all, apology accepted-" I smiled and he continued "Second of all, your not alone. This couch isn't very comfortable. It's like sleeping on a rock!" He complained.

I squeezed my knuckle as much as I passed by and looked down at the floor while anger filled my face, and tears started to fill my eyes. I blinked once and before I knew it they were streaming down my cheeks.

"Ey, Bells. Did I say something wrong?" Running to me with his arms straighten out for me.

When he saw that I did not response, my eyes still crying and my knuckles still wrapped into fists, he bent down to my height and started to wipe away my tears. He looked at my fists that probably were red by now, but now he unwrapped them and took them in his big warm hands and spoke to me.

"Bella-" He began "-I'm so sorry for what I said, but…" It seemd that he had lost him self, but it cleard to him now what he had said. `It's like sleeping on a rock!´

If he just knew how much I would give to sleep with Edward on my side just one more time!

"I'm so sorry Bella, I forgot, it will never happen agian, I promise"

I looked down at him with tearful eyes and I could really see how much damage I had brought on to he face. Why would I always do that? I can't stand it anymore, it hurts too much. I must put an end to it. Here and now.

"Jake-" I started, but my voice failed me and broke into a sob. He was about to give he a hug when I stopped him. I didn't want this to be a more sensitive moment then it already was and he could read it on my face and he just nodded.

I gave it another try, and this time my voice held it's tone. "Jake, it's okay. It really is. You couldn't know. It isn't your fault. I should have let go by now, but it's just to hard! I know y-"

He hushed me the same way he had done yesterday, I didn't like it but I didn't say anything either. I just wanted to now what the fuck had happend! Or well after I'd passed out.

"Bella, I will never hurt agian. The pain is unbearable. I don't want you to hate me so I'm ending that now. And from now on, if I hurt you agian. I'm going to leave"

That gave me another shock.

"Why?" I breathed "I mean no, you can't leave me. Beacuse you have never hurt me. It's me hurting myself"

That gave him a shock.

"What?"

"You know I still love him. But you might don't know that I can't let him go"

"I'm sorry for many things Bella. For example, I'm sorry beacuse you can't let him go. But you need to know that everybody already knows that you can't let him go. We can see it on you. Always sad, even if you look happy for a second, but when you look away we can see your pain, and trust me. It hurts deep in my heart and sure as hell everbody elses "

That really gave me a wake up call. I hadn't just been hurting Jacob. I had been hurting everybody else, without been knowing it! I had been hurting Billy, Jessica, Angela, Mike, Eric, Sam, Emily, Embry, Jared, Paul. And Charlie. Probably Renée too.

Charlie has certainly told her.

God, I felt like I wanted to die, but that would just hurt everybody else even more. Not such a good idea then.

"Do you want to talk about him, Bella?" Jacob asked, very caring. I knew that Jake hated Edward for leaving me, but still he wanted me for himself.

It was the same thing about these talks about Edward.

As much as Jake loved me and cared about me and wanted me to feel good, and forget everything about Edward. He wanted to help me. But when he did that, it brought Jake pain. Something I could not bare. So we were trapped in an evil cirkel. No where to go.

"Yeah, but not now. Maybey later" I mumble sadly.

"Okay" He replied.

"Do you want me to wake Charlie?" He asked

"No, let him sleep. I bet he hasn't got so much sleep. Just look at all those coffe mugs! I bet he has stayed up all night"

Jacob looked at me, as if he had something to confess.

"Is there anything you want to tell me, Jake?"

He bit his lip. He didn't used to be this nervous. Not what I rememberd.

"Um, Bella-" He began. "- that was just the coffe mugs for this night" He said

I didn't want to know how my face expression looked like now.

"This night?" I almost roared. I had to calm my self.

"How long have I've been out?" I said with a calmer voice

This was something Jake didn't want to answer at all. The way he looked at me, it didn't really shout `good´.

"Bella, you have sort of been in shock for three weeks"

He looked at me with unsure eyes. He didn't know how I would react. I understood him. I had been crying, shouting and aplogized this morning, what would I do next? Even I didn't want to know.

"WHAT?" I screamd

Jake didn't respond. But Charlie did.

Great no more talking about that. I wonderd how long it would take before I got some answers, answers that I really, really, really, really wanted to know.

"Bella! You're awake!" He ran over to me and hugged me tight and kissed my forehead several times.

"Bella, are you okay?" He whisperd

His mustasch was huge! And his beard had grown out a little bit. He had stubbe now.

Damn, I'd missed a lot!

"Yeah dad, I just want to go home. You think I would be allowed?" I asked tired

"Don't think so sweetheart - Jacob, would you go get a doctor?"

"Already on my way" He replied, he was already at the door.

Damn, that kid is fast.

"Dad, could you tell me what have happend? I don't remember" I mumble

"You don't remember?" He asked surprise

Why couldn't everybody just stop saying that?

"No" I replied

"I'll tell you later"

I nod.

The next minute a femal doctor walked through the door with a male nurse on her side, and behind them Jake was standing at the door, looking at me.

"Hi Isabella, my name is Dr. Harrison and I'm going to treat you until you feel better"

"I already feel better, I never felt bad or sick" I lied, in a way. I'd never felt bad. I had just gone in to shock, it wasn't my fault.

And in the othter way, I did feel bad. But it was Edward's fault.

"Bella, just let the doctor do her job" Charlie argued

"Thank you Mr. Swan" She smiled, her blue eyes were on me agian.

`Don't like the attentaion´ I thought for myself, but I guessed that it wasn't much to do. I was sure as hell that I would be here for a while.

"Isabella, I'm goi-" She started, but I interupted. I really hate my birth name.

"My name is Bella" I said, cocky with eye contact. What had gotten into me. I was never cheeky and definitely had no eye contact at times like this.

"Bella!" Charlie raised his voice now.

"That's fine" My doctor said -Susan-, I saw her name on her name tag. Dr. Susan Harrison. Huh.

She made another try, but this time more insecure.

"Bella, I'm going tolight in your eyes to see if you have concussion, do you feel dizzy? She asked.

"No" I replied while she looked in my eyes with her flashlight..

"I belive you" She said, happy for some reson. `Wierd doctor´ I thought.

"You don't seem to have a concussion" Now I liked her.

"Good" Charlie breathed.

She continued to look for signs that would have me to stay another night or two. Or a week. For my health of course, it was her job.

But I didn't seem to have anything. Thank God for that!

"You may be able to go home to night-" That's good news "-but I would want you to stay another night, since you were out for three weeks" But there are always bad news too, espacially in my world.

"You may go into shock again. Like a `after-shock´. It isn't very common, but we warn all our patience." She said to both Charlie and me.

"Of course we stay, if that's the best" Charlie replied, way to soon for me to think about it. But what was it to think about anyway, Charlie would force me to stay.

I sighed high, but not to high so it would sound made up. Just high enough so they would here my disappointment, and they did beacuse they laughed, and I rolled away from them to look out the windows.

My mind started to wonder away agian, and I hadn't noticed that the nurse and the doctor had disappeard. Why had the nurse been here actually? He hadn't done anything, but I guessed it was just one of their routines.

Jake had been here everyday since I got here, but hadn't slept here except for to day. But now he was gone and I hadn't got the chance to talk him agian.

Damn it.

I would talk to him in the morning.

Charlie was down at the cafeteria and ate. I wasn't hungry at all so just fell asleep right away.

Well, that was chapter three. Hope you liked it! Btw, this was the kind of length that I wanted. I think it's not too short and not too long. What do you think? Comment what you thought of the chapter and about the length!:)

I'm going a way to vacation tomorrow, so I won't be able to write so much on the next chapter. But a little on the evening I think, I can't promise anything. But if I won't be able to write when I'm gone, the next chapter will be up next week. So you know. But I will be home on Wendsday evening so we'll se.
