Chapter 3

During her exam the nurse poked and prodded in places I never wanted to be poked again. When she was done she looked over at Carlisle. He walked over to her and she whispered something to him. He took the kit and left the room. She came up to me and said softly that she needed to clean and dress my injuries to my face. Mind you at this point I didn't even consider the damage to my face. She pulled the little shiny table closer and started wiping my face with alcohol wipes. Boy did it burn. That's when I noticed for the first time that I had blood on my face. I didn't feel her touching my face which meant it was probably swollen. With this new knowledge I turned away from both her and Alice.

"Now dear, I can't clean the cuts and such to see how bad it is if you don't look at me. It's probably not as bad as it looks if you let me clean it up." she said as she attempted to turn my head back to her.

"Can I do it? I don't think she'll fight me. I mean I know you need to see the extent so you can watch but I might be able to get her to let me do it." Alice asked her nicely.

How was I suppose to let her clean my wounds? She'd see how ugly I must look now. I started to cry again. I guess the nurse agreed because I felt Alice's gentle hand touch my chin to turn my head to face her. I tried to fight her but I didn't have the strength so I just gave in. I turned to face her with my eyes closed because I didn't want to see the disgust on her face.

Alice has always had gentle hands. She wiped the blood off my face and then turned to the nurse.

"I'm done. Is there anything else you need to do?" she asked the nurse.

"I'm going to have to wait for your dad to come back so he can determine if she needs any stitches. Until then I can leave you two alone if you would like. I'll go get her a glass of ice water. Buzz me if you need anything." she said as she showed Alice where the call button was.

I heard the door open and close and realized she was gone.

"Bella, look at me sweetie." Alice said in her sweet voice.

"I can't." I said as I kept my eyes closed.

" Who did this to you? Did you see him? Can you tell the police who it was? Can you at least tell me who it was?" she asked softly.

"I'm afraid."

"Afraid of what Bella? Do you think he'll do it again? Do you think if you tell he'll hurt you more? Do I know him?" she added curiously.

"Alice, I can't. He'll know."

"If you don't tell though, he'll be free to do it again or to someone else." she argued. Then she sighed. "I will wait." was all she said.

I heard footsteps coming towards my room. My body tensed. Alice felt it. She started rubbing my shoulder as Carlisle walked in.

"The nurse told me you may need stitches. Let me have a look." he walked up to my bed and looked at the cuts on my face. "Looks like you'll need some below your right eye down to the edge of your mouth. The other cuts aren't that bad. I would love to get my hands on the boy that did this to you. I'm sorry Bella." he said genuinely.

"Is my dad out there yet?" I asked.

"Yes dear. He's out in the waiting room. Do you want me to let him in? Or do you need to rest?"

"Can I have a little while to rest and come back to reality? Tell him I'm sorry though."

"Sorry?" Alice asked.

"Somehow whoever it was got in through my bedroom window. I thought I locked it but I must not have. I'm kind of confused though, I don't have a tree out my window so he must have brought a ladder. Tell my dad I'm sorry."

"I will Bella. Let me stitch this up and you can get some rest. Do you want Alice to stay in here with you?"

"Could she?"

"Yes, I'll have an orderly bring her a cot or chair to sleep in. Is there anything else you need dear?" Carlisle asked as he got the kit ready to stitch my face. "I'm going to use a local to numb this a little more. It may feel numb now but I don't want to take any chances. After the local kicks in then I'll stitch this one up and be on my way. You know where the call button is if you need anything right?"

"Alice does. Thank you Carlisle." I said right before he stuck the needle in my cheek to numb the area that needed stitching.

When he was finished, he left my room. Alice was still sitting on the bed next to me. I scooted over enough to give her room and she lay down next to me. I put my head on her shoulder. At least she was on my uninjured side. As I lay there I could feel myself getting sleepy. I tried to fight it but I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer. Before I knew it I was asleep.

I was coming into my room when I heard him there. He didn't speak but I could still hear him in my head telling me that he always got what he wanted. Next thing I knew I was being thrown on my bed and my clothes were being ripped off. Then I felt his hands on my back. He used one to hold me down and the other to separate my legs. Just as he was about to penetrate me...
