A/N: Twilight belongs to Stephenie Meyer. Read and enjoy!
Carlisle POV
I looked confused down the hallway as this woman ran just by me.
"Excuse me for a sec, Seth..." I said as I followed her as quickly as humanly possible. I ran down the corridor and entered the metal doors she had just gone through. I pushed them aside; they felt like feathers against my buffed vampire arms. I laughed inwardly. That's something Emmett would probably think.
I flew down another flight of stairs just in time to see the woman fall.
Edward POV
"NO!" I jumped. I had just seen Alice's horrifying vision. "No, no, no, no!" I hyperventilated and rocked back and forth on Esme's knees. I felt almost desperate because there was nothing I could do to save her. My Bella, my beautiful Bella, my sun, my favourite thing in the world, was suddenly there no longer. I screamed and pushed Esme aside.
Carlisle POV
Luckily I arrived there in time to save her. Well, most of her. At least I think she injured herself somewhere, most likely an arm or wrist fracture. As she looked up at me I suddenly remembered who she was.
"Hello Bella." I said cordially as I guided her through the doors for the next floor. Coincidentally, it was the fracture rehabilitation floor.
"Carlisle?" she whimpered a bit for her arm, but trust me, I knew she had gone through much worst and could probably survive most basic injuries without crying.
"Martha!" I cried out, relieved. Martha was one of the nurses and didn't look occupied right now so she could deal with Bella. "Can you deal with her please?"
"Sure." She said as she started talking to Bella. I walked to the end of the hallway and watched as Martha tried to coerce Bella into a wheelchair. Overprotective Martha.
Alice POV
"Carlisle," I hissed into the phone. "What happened? Tell me everything."
"Well, Bella pushed through a crowd of doctors, including me, went down a staircase in high heels-"
"Should've known." I muttered.
"And then she fell, me being right behind her, so before I could catch her she broke her wrist. Or arm. Or both. Something like that." He hung up.
"Ugh." I muttered a string of profanities under my breath as I decided it was more worthwhile just to go home rather than stay at school.
Jasper POV
Alice entered the apartment. She sauntered in and stopped in her tracks. Her emotions switched to sadness, then confusion, and then panic.
"Edward!" she called out. "Bella's not dead!"
Bella POV
"Ouch!" I said as the nurse strapped on my cast. I was supposed to have it on for like six weeks or something.
"You may leave now." I immediately left, as you could tell. I jumped into my Honda and pondered where to drive. Maybe I should pick up Alyssa. Or do something else. I don't know. Maybe adopt another kid. I thought about the options as I drove to Alyssa's school. I parked my car and hopped out.
As I entered the building, I heard a lot of kids shouting and yelling. I followed the noise. I poked my head in through the doorway.
"Hey, is Alyssa Swan here?"
"Yeah! One sec." The teacher came and got Alyssa out of the dressing room area. Once she saw me, she smiled brightly. "Mama!" she said and jumped into my arms. I took her knapsack on my good wrist and walked with her all the way into the car, where I drove us back to have a relaxing time in our penthouse.
Esme POV
Once Edward had heard that Bella hadn't died, he immediately calmed down and started helping Jasper, Alice, and I clean up the floor. We wiped up some some sawdust, a little bit of glass, and some fabric and cushion.
"Edward," I said calmly and as motherly as I could. "Why don't you get us some movies so that we can have a family night?"
"Ugh." He groaned. "I will, but later." He dumped the contents of the dustbin into the garbage can and picked up a copy of one of Carlisle's medical books and began to read it.
Bella POV
It had been a few hours since I had gotten home, and the only thing Alyssa had done was sleeping. So I cleaned around the apartment a bit. Then I watched some TV and decided to wake up my beautiful daughter to go get some movies.
Edward POV
"Oh come on Eddie, we're getting bored already!" Rose complained as she blew on her new manicure. She'd been very annoying about the fact that she'd just gotten a manicure.
"You know, it's probably a good idea to get the movies right now..." Carlisle mused and thought something that he couldn't say out loud. You don't want Rosalie to talk about her manicure for an hour, do you?
"No I don't. I'll go get some movies," I said as I swiftly departed and grabbed my wallet. I walked to the elevator and pressed the down button.
Bella POV
I held Alyssa's hand all the way down to the lobby. "This way sweetie!" I leaded her to the video store.
"Mommy, where's the kid section?" she asked.
"Here, come on, I'll show it to you," I said and tugged her little hand closer.
