I don't own twilight.
The morning of day three came. It hadn't been a full three days, yet, but I could feel that the pain had increased and it was nearly time for Bella's heart to stop.
It had been 63 hours. Emmett had lost the bet, but I didn't really care anymore. The pain was getting harder to hold back. Her pain almost felt like my own it was that strong. It stayed like that for the a few more hours before it got too much for me to handle. I knew the end was near and the amount of pain that Bella was about to go through couldn't be stopped.
I hated being able to feel her pain and do nothing about it. It was just like when I use to drink from humans instead of animal. I hated knowing that I was the cause of their pain, just like now. I had caused this.
Her pain finally started to die down. Fear started to replace the pain and this emotion was a lot easier to calm. When it was over and her heart gave its final thud, I quickly moved out of the room to give her some space and time with Edward. The less people she had to deal with the safer she was. Edward would call if he needed us.
I walked down the stairs form Edward's room to the second floor where I found Emmet waiting for me.
"So, how long?"He asked as soon as I was close enough.
"Where you that busy that you couldn't take note of the time?" I knew that he'd been with Rose most of the time like I'd wanted to be with Alice, but I couldn't not yet.
Emmett just gave me a sly grin.
I sighed. "69 hours." Then his face dropped and I had to laugh at that.
Then I heard someone growl from upstairs. I think that was nearly every newborns first reaction to this new life.
Emmett and I stayed quite as we listen to see if Edward needed help.
There was another growl and Emmett asked if we should check on them.
"Not yet. Edward will call." But Edward didn't get the chance.
The door bell rang down stairs and Alice called out to us.
"Jasper get Bella." I turned and ran back up the stairs, Emmett hot on my heels.
We reached the door and opened it to face Bella. I could tell as soon as I saw her eyes that blood lust had quickly overcome her.
I slammed into her wrapping my arms around her shoulders to hold her back. Edward had caught up to her and wrapped his arms around Bella's arms just as she tried to duck out of my grasp. Emmett came around my left and grabbed her from the side.
I noticed that she was breathing hard. Her instincts wanted the smell of it and more.
"Bella, listen to me. Bella, you've got to stop breathing. Come on Bella, hold your breath for me." Edward was trying to sooth her, but it wasn't working.
"It's not working Edward. Words won't help." I said. Kiss her. Try and break the invisible spell. I thought to him. It had worked once when Alice did it to me, but I wasn't this far gone.
Edward kissed her and she froze for that millisecond. That was all we needed. Edward moved out from behind her as we tackled her to the floor, pinning her to the ground.
She cried out as she hit the floor. Her frustration was growling because we were winning.
Edward came around my right.
"Bella, listen to me. Come on Bella. Focus."
Still not working Edward.
He kissed her again. She stopped moving, but her body was still tense and ready to fight again.
Edward brought his head about three inches above Bella's.
"Please, Bella, hold your breath. Please, Bella."
She just stared at him, still tense. Edward repeated himself and I felt realisation overcome her.
I relaxed and Emmett followed my lead. Then she started sobbing and both Emmett and I let her go. Then we walked out of the room.
I closed the door behind us to find Alice standing there.
"How is she?" Alice asked concerned.
"She hasn't fed yet, once Edward's taken her out she should be fine." I reassured Alice giving her a hug.
"Please don't tell me I was like that?" Emmett asked.
"Wouldn't know. Go ask Rose. Though I doubt you had restraints." He looked appalled as he remembered his slip-ups.
"Who was at the door anyway?" I asked frustrated.
"Just some lady trying to sell stuff. Kind of a wrong place at the wrong time."
I sighed and made to move back down the stair again.
"Hmm, I wouldn't do that just yet. Edward won't get Bella out of the house in time." Alice said, holding me back.
"What?" Emmett asked.
"Well after she calms down, Edwards won't get her out the window quick enough and we're going to have a repeat." Alice explained.
I sighed again. We walked to the bottom of the stairs to give them some privacy. We did have to wait long till Alice told us to go.
Again we raced up the stairs and opened the door... again.
The bloodlust in her eyes was stronger this time. This was going to be harder.
I ran full-on at Bella, Emmett close behind me. With the force of both of us hitting Bella we managed to send her flying out Edward's open window.
"Go on." I said to him.
He turned and followed her.
Both Emmet and I walked up to the window and peered out.
"What the hell?" She yelled up at us. Emmett chuckled.
I heard a quite 'Oh God' before Edward grabbed her hand and led her in the forest.
"I hope we never have to that again." Emmett sighed.
"I think we might if we don't want her to ever catch a human. It'll be worth it in the long run." Then we turned and walked out of Edward's room.
