Chapter 11: The Vision. -Edward's POV-
I hated leaving my love at Charlie's, and I knew it was going to feel like a long time before I return for her. I slowly drove home, wondering if I should be with Bella, and talk about Alice's vision with her. I shook my head, knowing this was the right thing to do. As I turned onto the driveway, I heard Alice's gentle thoughts. Edward, I know this is hard for you, but we need to discuss the vision. I'm sorry, but it's best if Bella isn't here. "I know." I pressed on the brake, and I switched off the engine. I took a deep breath, and opened the door. Alice was waiting for me on the stoop.
"Edward, this is hard
for me as it is for you. I saw Bella's death. Our whole family
loves her."
"How could you see her die, when I'm changing
her so soon?" I asked.
"I don't know. My only guess is
she's lying to us."
"Why would she lie to us?"
"What did Carlisle ask Bella in her exam?"
"He asked her to breath in and out, and if it hurt."
"She has water in her lungs, Edward. Either she was lying, or she's breathing in water."
"What should I
do?"
"Go talk to Carlisle. I'll keep an eye on things, and
call you if it gets worse," Alice told me.
-Bella's POV-
I
sat on my bed, looking out my window. I was waiting for the silver
volvo. It had been two hours. Charlie knocked on my door. Again.
"Bella, I don't
think he's going to show up anytime soon."
"I don't
care."
"Bella, come out, and spend some time with me please.
It seems like I don't know my own daughter very well."
"Dad,
I don't want to talk with you right now. I haven't seen Edward in
ages, and I'm supposed to marry him next week. I want to see him."
I heard Charlie start to walk away. I took a deep breath, and
flinched. For some reason my chest hurt slightly. I laid down on my
bed. Suddenly a bolt of pain shot threw my chest. I cried out in
pain.
"Bells? Are you okay?" I heard Charlie shout. I heard the stairs creak as he walked up, then everything went black.
-Edward's POV-
I was in Carlisle's
study, talking to him. "EDWARD!" Alice screamed, in what could
only be pain and fear. I ran down stairs, faster than I ever have. I
slammed the door of the volvo and sped down the driveway. Please
don't have her die, I'll do anything. I screeched to a stop
in front of her house. I opened the front door, and ran upstairs.
Charlie was shaking an unconscious Bella. "What happened?"
"She
cried out, and wouldn't respond," Charlie responded. He looked
very scared.
"I'll take her to the hospital. Can you please
call Carlisle for me."
"Sure." I rushed to the volvo, and
set Bella down beside me. I raced to the hospital.
