Elizabeth was weak, just as Edward predicted. Edward looked pained and I noticed that sometimes he had to look away, I sighed as she would cry out in pain, and her eyes were heavy from stress and the lack of sleep.
We tried to calm her down but she would just scream in pain and we couldn't stop her because it was her bodies way of reacting to the pressure on her brain, it wouldn't go away even if we gave her morphine.
Elizabeth's father said she was fine it was just the recovery process and I could tell Edward was pissed as well as Elizabeth's mother Anne. I walked out of the room not able to take the crying, it was heart breaking.
I waited for Edward to come out, when he finally did I looked up at him ashamed with myself, "I'm sorry-" He cut me off.
"Don't worry about it, it was hard for me to see that the only reason I stayed was because I had to." He kissed my cheek walking away to get her M.R.I scans.
I sighed and walked to the nurse's lounge, I decided to look over the papers Carlisle gave me. I looked at the list and saw a few possibilities like, pharmacist, physiology, clinical nurse and becoming a Mid-wife.
I would have to review them, I wasn't officially sure what one to do, maybe clinical nurse or midwife. I had to get my head straight, how was I going to tell Edward? I had to be honest, that was for sure.
I looked over my options and looked at the options it would give me. I had to sleep on it, look at all my options and the money involved. I sighed sadly and let a stray tear out. I wiped it away and took a deep breath, it was so hard.
Life was so hard? But I would sacrifice anything for Edward; I wanted to give the relationship a shot. I needed him, it was weird I had known him three weeks and I was already falling for him, but sometimes you just know, don't you?
I stuffed the paper work back into my backpack and decided to go for a coffee, I was tired and I needed something to keep me awake.
I got a coffee and noticed Angela sitting at a table by herself, I needed to tell someone what was going on, and could I trust her?
I quickly decided yes and went over to her, sitting down. She yawned but put her book down, "Hey Bella how was the surgery?" She asked.
"Good, she is weak but it is just how Edward predicted." I sighed, unhappily, should I tell him or her first? She can keep a secret, right?
"What's wrong?" She looked at me.
"Well can you keep a secret?" I looked at her.
"Cross my heart and hope to die, my father is a pastor; I wouldn't do that unless I couldn't keep a secret, tell me." She pleaded.
"Well Dr. Carlisle Cullen brought me in for a meeting and told me he was happy for Edward and that he supports the relationship but as chief he has to do what is right, so I either change program to something else which he gave me a file about or I can get kicked off the program, I don't know how to tell Edward." I sighed, my voice cracking.
Angela looked at me with a sad voice, "I will kill him." I heard a women's voice say from behind, I looked and saw a thin women standing there with caramel coloured hair.
She looked at me, "Don't worry I will sort this out, my son and you will keep your jobs here." She walked off quickly, I gulped, was that Edward's mother? I think it was!
I sighed and put my head down on the table. I looked at Angela and she looked as if she had nothing to say, she wasn't looking angry, just surprised.
"What do you think will happen?" I asked my voice cracking.
"Look for yourself." She pointed to the catwalk; I could see Carlisle's office, the glass window looking into it showed Edward, Carlisle and his mother. They were all using hand gestures and Edward was talking seriously, or so it looked, his mother was talking calmly and Carlisle was trying to explain something but after three attempts he started shouting.
Why was this happening? Was I the one going to break up there family so I could be with Edward! I didn't want that to happen.
I looked as they took seats in his office, clearly trying to work it out.
I let out a few tears and looked up again; I noticed that Edward's head was turned towards me. I got up; I couldn't make him more upset by him seeing my tears. I walked away and I could hear Angela behind, I could hear my bag being picked up and I was grateful that she ha done that so I wouldn't have to go back, I walked into a supply closet, he wouldn't look for me here. Well at least I thought he wouldn't. Angela came in behind me and dropped my stuff, closing the door. She sat beside me on the floor and her arms wound around me.
"Will you tell me from the beginning?" She asked.
I nodded and began telling her everything, her reactions are surprised, shocked, happy, and sad and she smiled at all the romantic parts.
In just three weeks, Edward had changed my life forever; there was now life and warmth in myself, instead of what I used to be . . .
