Chapter 4

The Accident

EPOV (from Bella's house on)

As soon as we reached Bella's house she got out of the car. I was wondering if she forgot about her 20 bags of clothing in my car.

"Are you getting your bags? I asked her.

"Oh yeah, I forgot." Bella mumbled as she started to walk back towards the trunk of my car. But by the time she got back to the car I had all the bags in my hands.

"I can help." She says. I just shake my head.

"I got it, just get the door for me." I say following her to the front door.

"Where do you want them?"

"Um…just set them in the living room please." Bella said as she continues to walk into another room in the house. I place the bags in the center of the living. I glance around and notice all the pictures of Bella everywhere. Damn, she was even a cute little girl! I hear some rustlings coming from the room Bella walked to, and I wonder what she is doing? I walk towards the direction she went and make it to the kitchen. she is holding a piece of paper and reading it. She is so adorable when she is reading. I just stand there and stare.

As I stand there she starts to put the note down and looks up at me.

"My Dad is fishing; he just left me money and a note saying he was gone and what I could do for food." She says simply before I could ask any questions.

"Oh, okay. Well, do you want to go get something to eat with me, or even come to my house for dinner?" I ask. I was debating on whether that was the right thing to do. I mean I think she is hot and nice, but is it weird to ask someone to dinner you just met yesterday? Especially inviting them to your parent's house?

"Uh, as long as you don't care. Either is fine with me." She says with an uneasy look on her face. Maybe I asked to soon. Maybe she thinks I am a weirdo for asking her to go! Maybe she is nervous because she likes me! Well that may be getting to far ahead of myself. Start as friends Edward! I yell at myself internally.

"Yeah, we can go to my house for dinner. My parents have been dying to meet you ever since Alice started talking about you yesterday." I tell her, giving her a genuine smile. I am trying to let her know I want her to come with out being weird. She nods her head and gives me the same smile in return.

Bella writes a quick note to Charlie to explain she is going with me to my house for dinner. I watch her intently as she concentrates on the note. Her hair falls in front of her face and she is biting her lips. Oh God, her lips are so red and they look like they are perfect lips to kiss. I wish I could place my lips on hers and feel her lips all over my… Geez I need to get a cold shower as soon as we walk in the door. This girl will be the death of me! I shake my head and head towards the living room.

A few seconds later Bella appears and is ready to go. We ride in complete silence to my house. I can't help but glance occasionally towards her. As we pull closer to my house she seems to have a panic stricken face. I wonder what she is thinking about.

As soon as we are there I am out of the car quickly. I want to be a perfect gentleman and open the door for her. I usher her towards the front door and open it letting her go in first. As soon as she takes a step inside she falls forward knocking over a vase and slicing her arm. I feel bad I wasn't quick enough to catch her!

She is bleeding pretty bad, I just get ready to call for my parents when I hear them come running from inside the house. I look down at Bella. She looks like she is ready to pass out. No sooner did I think it, did her eyes flutter shut.

"Dad, I think she passed out!" I yelled with extreme shock and terror in my voice.

"Calm down, Edward, I am sure she will be fine. Let's take her to my office to get her some stitches and let her lie down for a bit." My Dad says, trying to calm me. While he is talking I lift Bella into my arms, man she is light. I follow my Dad upstairs. We go into his office and I lay her on the couch. The bleeding is slowing down a bit and my Dad gets to work cleaning her arm and preparing to give her stitches. I walk out of the office not wanting to see the needle. I shudder to think of the needle. I hate needles!

"Edward." My mom says softly putting her hand on my shoulder. "What happened?" She asks.

"Well I took Bella home from shopping, and Charlie has gone fishing, so I invited her for dinner, and then she fell and sliced her arm on the broken vase," I say in all one breath. My mom smiles and nods her head.

"Okay dear. Carlisle is finished stitching her up. Do you mind carrying her to a room so she can relax in a bed? I nod my head and walk into the office and pick Bella up again and carry her to my room and place her on my bed.

I sat there for twenty minutes before I couldn't take it anymore. I had to wake her up to make sure she was okay.

"Bella, Bella, wake up please!" I plead while I whisper in her ear. Nothing, No movement no nothing. I try again, while I place my hands on her shoulder and gently shake. "Bella, Bella, wake up please, everything is okay. Please wake up!" I plead with her again. Again, I get nothing. Man is she out.

I walk over to my CD player and turn on some music. I will wait. I crawl into my bed careful not to touch Bella and relax. I must have drifted to sleep because I got woken up by someone moving on my bed. Bella! I open my eyes and turn to look at her. She is sitting up slowly and she looks scared. I reach for her. Bella jumped and landed with a big thud on the floor. I get up quickly and run over to her.

"Bella, are you okay?" I ask while trying to contain my laughter. Her expression on her face is priceless! She has a scowl and then a realization look like she is mad then realized where she was.

"I am fine. What happened?" Bella asks as she looks around my room. I help her to her feet before answering her question.

"Well, as soon as we got here, you tripped and fell knocking over a vase and slicing your arm pretty good. You kind of passed out. Then my Dad gave you stitches and then I carried you into my room to let you get some rest. I guess I fell asleep because when you started to wake up it woke me up and I tried to reach out to get your attention and you fell off my bed and well, here we are." I explain to her. Her face is blank, but she is blushing like crazy. It is so adorable.

"Well, that is embarrassing. I can't believe I broke something! I will have to replace it, Charlie is going to kill me when I tell him." She rambles on and on that I put my hands on either side of her face to get her to look at me.

"Bella, It's okay. You don't have to replace the vase, my mom doesn't care, as long as you are okay, that is all that matters." I tell her softly while I gaze into her amazing deep brown eyes. I am debating on actually letting go of her face. She is staring intently at me. I find my eyes going from her eyes to her lips. Bella starts to do the same, we both start to lean in. Unexpectedly Bella jumps back.

"Okay, thanks Edward, I really needed someone to calm me down." She says while blushing like crazy.

"No problem. Well I think dinner will be ready if you are hungry. My parents will want to know you are okay." I tell her pushing her towards the door.

"Okay, let's go eat." She says as we reach the door.

We walk downstairs and in to the kitchen. My mom is just getting things finished up.

"Mom, is dinner almost ready? We are kind of hungry. It's been a long day." I ask and she turns and smiles.

"Yes dear, it is almost done. You must be Bella," My mom says as she walks towards Bella and gives her a big hug.

"Are you feeling okay? How is your arm?" She asks with a frantic look on her face.

"I am feeling fine and my arm is a little sore, but not too bad. Thank you for asking Mrs. Cullen." Bella says politely.

"Oh, dear, please call me Esmè. Mrs. Cullen is my mother-in-law." My mom says with a bright smile. Bella nods and smiles back.

"Okay, let us eat!" My mom says as we all gather around the table. My Dad is at work now, so it is just the three of us enjoying a home cooked meal.

"Edward, make sure you call your father to let him know how Bella is doing." My mom says to me before turning to Bella, "Bella, how did you escape the rest of the day shopping with my dear Alice?" My mom said with a small laugh.

"Well, Edward kinda saved me." Bella replied with that sexy blush creeping up on her cheeks.

"She was being tortured so I figured I would help out a friend, while Alice finished with Jasper, Ben and Angela." I said laughing and winking at Bella. The wink caused her to blush even more and making my eyes stick to her like glue. My mom cleared her throat and caused me to jump a little, and she gives me a knowing look. What was that look for? Am I that easy to read? I just shake my head and try to start up a conversation.

"So, Bella, are you excited for school to start on Monday?" I ask her.

"Umm… I am not really sure, I mean knowing all of you guys will be nice and make my day go faster, but I am still nervous, I am usually a quiet person." She replied shyly while she was biting her lip. Shit, this girl is going to be the death of me. I can't stop staring at her. I am going to have to do something and fast.

"Well Dear, I am sure things will go great on your first day. I am sure my children will be very helpful." My mom said trying to easy her mind, but also staring me down, almost saying you better help her and be nice. I shake my head, I like Bella, and of course I will help her. I roll my eyes at my mom.

"Well, since it is starting to get late I better take Bella home." I say and Bella nods her head and starts to get up.

"It was nice to meet you Esmè." Bella says while walking over to my mom to give her a small hug.

"It was great to finally meet you; my children have not shut up about you since you got here!" My mom said causing Bella to blush once again. I will have to make sure I get her to blush before I drop her off at home. Man, I know a few ways I would like to get her to blush. Mind out of the gutter, Edward! I better hurry back home before I do something my mother would not be proud of.

"I will be back shortly mom." I tell her right before I close the door.

"Thank you for tonight I really enjoyed getting to know your mom." Bella said as we reached the car.

"It was my pleasure Bella. Would you like to go get some ice-cream?" I asked without really thinking about it. Oh shit, this is going to be a long night if she says yes. I hope to God she does say yes though, I would love to spend a few more moments with her just the two of us. I look at her waiting for an answer, and she is biting her lip trying to decide what to do. I smile encouraging her to say yes.

"Umm….I would…..umm… like that very much, thank you." She said with a genuine smile on her face. With that we were off for some ice-cream. Hopefully things go well and I don't do anything stupid!
