What happened to Alex? Is she alive? Is she dead?
Well... I'm not answering that right now...
Maybe Jacob will answer that question for you...

Jacob's POV
"I'm really sorry," I said.
I was sitting on the couch of the bloodsuckers- er, the Cullen's Astoria home. I had just came into town to visit Nessie today, but of course I had to get wrapped up in Alex's accident.
"You can never be sorry enough, dog," Alice spat.
God, her voice was venomous. Pun intended.
"I was only-"
"You shouldn't have interfered!" she shouted. "When I saw her fly into the road-"
She stopped. I rubbed the back of my neck, waiting for her speak again. She took a deep breath.
"I care for her. When I saw her future go black, I thought she was DEAD! Can you imagine how that must feel?"
"Again, I was only-"
"You know I can't see werewolves in my visions! You shouldn't. Have. Interfered."
I stood up and towered over her.
"If I hadn't done anything, she MIGHT have died," I said coldly.
She glared at me, then sighed. Nessie bounded down the stairs.
"Jakey!" she squealed, and ran over to me. I swooped her up into my arms and kissed her on the cheek.
Alice must have not yelled back because she saw Ness coming.
Nessie pressed her hand to my cheek.
Can we go hunting together?
I looked Alice right in the eyes.
"Excuse me, Alice, but Nessie and I are going hunting."
I walked towards the door with Nessie in my arms. Excitement was radiating off of her.
I could feel Alice's gaze burning a hole in my back as I walked out the door.

Alice's POV
I clenched and unclenched my fists. That dog aggravated me to no end, but I had to resist the urge to rip his head off.
For Nessie.
Alex is in the hospital. She was riding home with her friend Macey when an extremely large tractor trailer slammed into the side of the car. The exact side she was sitting in.
The impact shot the car forward, which caused an SUV to slam into the front of the car. Alex's seatbelt manage to snap and her door flew off with the impact of the cars. She flew through the air and landed in the road.
Carlisle said she landed on top of her left wrist and her left foot. Her left wrist is broken and a few bones in her left foot are broken.
But she will survive.
Carlisle has been treating her at the hospital since she was submitted there. She was knocked unconscious when she landed in the road, which was about two hours ago.
Carlisle's taking the late shift tonight so he can be there when she wakes up.
It really is bothering the rest of us that we can't be with her or visit her. The hospital is just not a place for us; we don't have as much control as Carlisle.
Parker is really taking this the hardest. He hasn't come out of his room since he found out Alex was in a car accident.
He told me "If it wasn't goddamn sunny today, none of this would have ever happened."
I agree with him.

Alex's POV
My eyes fluttered open and were instantly blinded by a bright light. I groaned and covered my eyes with my right hand.
I looked at my wrist and... there was an IV tube sticking out of it.
My heart started beating faster.
I looked around at my surroundings. My left foot was elevated in the air and I was in a bed. A hospital bed...
All my memories rushed back to me. The car accident, flying through the air, landing in the road.
A puddle of my blood surrounding me.
I started crying. What happened to Macey and her mom? Were they okay?
I was in the hospital. Was Carlisle around?
Oh, I thought of everyone else. They must be so upset... I should have never asked to go home with Macey.
Then, Carlisle walked into the room. He had a small smile on his face.
"Hello, Alex," he said, pulling up a chair next to the bed and sitting down. "How are you feeling?"
"Okay," I whispered, wiping a tear off my face.
He placed his hand on mine. It was like a block of ice, and sent a shiver through me.
He stroked my hand with his thumb and I sniffled.
"They can't visit me, can they?" I asked quietly. We were in a hospital. It might be too hard for them to... control themselves.
Carlisle sighed. "I am afraid not, my dear."
I nodded. "I was afraid of that..."
He patted my hand. "I will be here every night, no matter what day. You will not be alone, dear, I promise you that."
"Thanks, Carlisle," I said. "I just wish I could see them... How long am I going to be here?"
"About two weeks, to let your wrist and foot heal a bit. Then you'll have a cast on your wrist and the boot on your foot."
I saw that my foot was elevated, but my wrist? Glancing to the left, I saw that my left arm was elevated.
"Oh..." I said. "I- I didn't see that..." Tears started falling down my cheeks again. Two weeks away from Esme, Alice, Rosalie, Emmett, Jasper, Edward, Bella, Nessie...
And Parker.
Oh, Parker. He must be so upset right now...
Carlisle wiped a tear off my cheek. "This will not be as bad as... previous situations. I know you will be strong. It is only two weeks, dear." He paused, and I waited for him to speak.
"At least you know that we will still be here."
I nodded once. "I know."
He smiled and I smiled back.
"Hey, at least I'm right handed," I joked. Carlisle chuckled and kissed me on the forehead.
"I will be back later," he said. "I am going to spend the night tonight."
"Thanks," I said quietly. "I love you."
He smiled. "I love you too, Alex."
As he started to walk out of the room, I yelled "Wait!"
"What is it?" he asked.
"Are Macey and her mom... okay?" I questioned.
He nodded. "They were not injured as severely as you were. A couple cuts and bruises, nothing too extreme."
I breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank god."
Carlisle chuckled. "I will see you later," he said.
"Bye," I said quietly.

Yay, Alex isn't dead! Aren't you happy? I bet you are! So don't pretend you aren't.
'Cause if you do, I'll send Parker to get you. And that won't be fun. ; D
