Chapter 3
Bella POV ( After Edward saved her)
"Love, are you sure your ok?" Edward asked for the millionth time.
"Edward I am fine. My ribs just really hurt." As I said that I saw the speedometer hit 90. "You don't need to go that fast either."
"I know that, but I just want to get you home faster." How could I argue with that?
Moments later we arrived at the Cullen house. Edward shut off the car and came over to help me out. I refused to be carried in because of my ribs. So Edward helped me walk through the doors. Out of nowhere I felt cold arms surround my body, but no pressure on my ribs thankfully.
"Bella I am so sorry that I didn't see this coming sooner! Please don't be mad!" Alice stated in a rush.
"Alice, it's ok. I bet it was a split decision, that's why you couldn't see it. I am not mad at you!"
We walked into the living room and all the Cullen were sitting there. Esme got up and hugged me gently
"Honey, are you ok? Alice didn't tell us everything, but are you hurt badly? Anything I can help you with?" I swear this woman was too nice for her own good, but I loved it.
"Yes, I am fine Esme. My ribs just hurt, and nothing you can help with." As I said that Carlisle got up
"Do you mind if I take a look Bella?" Carlisle asked. I shook my head. " Do you want to go upstairs or stay down here?"
"It doesn't really make a difference dose is?" I asked, "We can stay down here."
Carlisle guided me over to the couch, I sat down and he slightly lifted my shirt. I heard a gasp come from Edward, Carlisle, Esme, Alice, and I think even Rosalie.
"Come on guys, it can't be that….." I looked down and my whole left side was blue on the outside and black on the inside. Great, now I think my rib might actually be broken.
Carlisle started feeling around. "It is defiantly broken," Yep I was right, "Let me just tape it up and you will be all set." I nodded.
I swallowed and tasted blood. Ugh, I almost got dizzy again. Painfully I took a deep breath to calm myself down.
"Edward, could you get me a glass of water, I can still taste blood in my mouth" I watched him disappear for a moment, then re-appear with a glass of water. "Thanks."
"Bella how did you get blood in your mouth? Judging by the smell it's not yours." Emmett asked. Jasper and Rosalie looked toward me waiting for an answer.
I took a sip of water. "Well would you like me to tell you the whole story?" I asked knowing the answer
"Hell yea!" Emmett stated
"There you go Bella your all taped up." Carlisle said. He then walked over to the couch and sat by Esme, obviously waiting to hear the story.
"Thanks" I took another drink. "Well Edward went to get me something to eat and I was just sitting on the bench. I heard a twig snap behind me and I really started to get this gut feeling that I should leave. As I got up I felt a hand go around my mouth and someone tried to pull me back. I was thrashing and kicking everything I could. Then the other guy came up and punched me in the ribs. They were talking about how 'fun I would be in bed' later that night." I shuddered at the thought. Edward rubbed my arms soothingly. "When they said that, I freaked. I bit then man's hand that was over my mouth, and ran for it. As soon as I tasted the blood I started to get dizzy and I tripped. One of the guys jumped on me and put a rag on my mouth. Next I know Edward's helping me up." I took another drink, the taste was finally gone.
"Damn Bella! You actually bit someone so hard that they bled?" Emmett asked chuckling
I started giggling "I guess so. I really didn't think I could bit that hard."
"Better watch out Eddie! Bella's a biter!" Emmett was full out laughing now. As was Jasper, Alice, and Carlisle. Esme and Rosalie were cracking smiles. I don't think my face could have been any redder. I looked at Edward. He winked at me as to follow along.
"Trust me, I already know that." Edward stated smugly. Emmett just stood there with a shocked look on his face. I looked at Edward and we busted out laughing. It hurt but the look on Emmett's face was well worth it.
Well I think that's the end of this story. Unless someone has an idea that keeps it going! If you do tell me! I gladly take opinions! Or just review and tell me how you like/didn't like it! I do take constructive criticism.
