I don't own Twilight! Just Luna!

Chapter 8

I opened my eyes to a bright room; I closed them right away and buried myself deeper in the sheets. I blinked repeatedly and slowly poked my head out of the sheets, this room was huge and the light was coming from the windows. The room was formal the sheets where brown with a dark yellow design on it, the wall paper was the same as the sheets.

"Ahh…my head is pounding" I whispered

I sat up but fell backwards to the bed, everything in the room was spinning and it was making me dizzy. I tried to get out of the bed but only managed to get tangled in the sheets and fall off the bed.

"You're finally awake Bella?" asked Luna popping her head inside the room; "Oh…are you feeling well?"

"No, my head hurts"

"It must be from the drinking but you didn't even drink a lot"

"Well then it means that I can't handle my alcohol" I said matter of factly

Luna helped me up and made me sit on the bed as she left to the bathroom and came back with a small bottle and a glass of water. I took two pills, swallowed them and drank the glass of water. She pushed me out of the room and downstairs, she was still in her pajamas, she lead me to the dinning room which was also gold and very elegant.

"How are you feeling Maribella?"

"Not well" I answered sitting next to Rika

"Good afternoon, every one" said Raven coming in, she was wearing a black knee high skirt with a tucked in gold blouse

"Where did you go Raven?"

"Taking care of some business while I'm here"

Raven looked the same age as Luna and I but now with what she was wearing she looked like an adult and an important business woman. She wasn't one of those crazy rich teenagers who you see on television, she is the exact opposite. Raven must have felt me staring because she looked up and smiled.

Raven and I followed Rika and Luna towards the back of the house that seemed more like a mansion to me. Both disappeared behind a door and Raven sat down at the steps, I did the same. Rika and Luna came out with swimsuits; the floor in front of them opened up and revealed a pool.

"Isn't too cold to swim?" I asked

"This pool has a heater, you could join them"

"No, I don't feel like swimming"

I turned back to Rika and Luna who were swimming as in racing each other. I felt eyes on me and turned to find Raven staring at me.

"You've been heartbroken…" Raven didn't ask as a question, it was more of a statement

"Yes…I-I have"

"You haven't gotten over it…it's been recent then" she said again as if she knew

I couldn't answer her, I want to but the words where stuck in my throat. I felt the only thing stopping me was the fact that I didn't want to make a show or let them see me vulnerable and hurt.

Raven stood up and offered me her hand which I took, she lead me away from the room to another where we could see the sky through the glass roof. There were two tables, round each held two chairs both the table and the chairs had beautiful designs like swirls. We sat down and a maid brought over tea the tea cups and pot also held beautiful designs, I was afraid it would break in my clumsy hands.

"It's okay Bella, calm down"

"Okay…how do you know about…?"

"It's something I can tell but you don't hide it well…"

"I've never been a good actress, do you think Luna can see it too?"

"I'm not sure, she is very oblivious to emotions…I think she would love to help you get over this if you told her about it"

"I don't think I could ever get over…over Edward…I love him and always will" I could feel a sting to my eyes, Raven reached out and wiped away tears that had slipped down

"Bella its okay to cry, let it all out…listen and listen to me well Isabella. Love can bring the greatest joy and destroy just as easily but you have to remember its part of life. We must hurt to feel joy, feel pain to enjoy bliss."

I thought over what Raven said, yes I understood and believed in what she said but how would I ever be able to move on? Would I ever love another like I loved Edward? Could I even be with another just to forget him?

"Isabella go and live enjoy what life has to offer you, I am sure that…this Edward would want the same for you"

"He…Edward said he didn't love me…I always thought he didn't…I was just fooling myself…"

"Bella you're beautiful and I mean it, any boy would want to be with you…beauty doesn't always have to be from the outside. I'm sure that you will find a guy who will love you for who you really are and you will love him as well"

I hugged Raven and she hugged me tighter while her fingers untangled my hair, I felt as though I was hugging an older sister. Some one who would lead me to see the brighter side of my tragedy.

"I'm sure that Luna would want to help you out if you told her, I know that she will have trouble understanding and might offend you by her reactions. But she never really means to harm any one, it's just the way she was left after recuperating."

Raven backed away and went to sit at her chair, I wiped away the remaining tears form my face. I wanted to ask her so many questions about Luna and this was my chance while Luna wasn't here to listen.

"Tell me everything about what happened to Luna"

"For you to understand I will have to begin from where I took interest in her case. I was twelve at the time; I was going through a dilemma and wanted to forget about it. At the moment my father was in the charity fiasco, I went over pamphlets places and people who needed help. Going through much paper work I found Luna's case, I went directly to meet her father."

"Uncle Logan…" I whispered

"Yes Logan, the man looked drained out of life. When I went to meet him the man was surprised that a child was interested in his own who was as if dead yet still living. I explained to him my intentions, he took me to see Luna. When I first laid eyes on Luna she was just laying back her eyes opened but never blinking, she had IV's stuck to her arms feeding her, keeping her from dying"

I could feel the sting back in my eyes Luna could have died, I could have lost the person I cherished like a sister.

"Luna believes her mother died when she was ten; that she was in a mental institution for a year. But in reality she died when Luna was seven and she was in a mental hospital for three years"

"W-what…" I couldn't voice what I felt, Luna suffered in the same state for three years; three long years she can't remember

"Logan and I decided it was best to tell her that it was only one year, why make her suffer? Luna had already been there for a year, after that I came to see her every day I could tell that the nurses kept her asleep constantly. I didn't understand why, she was like a statue no need to succumb her to sleep. There was a reason why they kept her asleep, Luna experienced violent seizures, she screamed about blood all over the place."

I sat straight in my chair when I heard blood, it made me think. Was aunt Allegra attacked by a vampire? I dismissed it; a vampire wouldn't spill a single drop of blood.

"After a few weeks I made sure Luna was awake again, if Logan wanted her to be like any other child we needed to speak to her make her understand. Her violent seizures erupted but I clamped her hands down and made her look at me. I spoke to her, made her understand that her mother was in a better place that she had family waiting for her to come back. The seizures stopped she was kept awake but she wasn't making any move to recuperate, her mind was having trouble connecting the dots as I call it…another year passed by. It was the last year where she started to awake, she received calls from a Charlie and a Renee and from you"

"Charlie and Renee are my father and mother; I wasn't told she was in a mental hospital. All I knew was that Luna wasn't well"

"When Luna was finally released we had become good friends, I had the need to watch over her and eventually Rika came to join us. Luna couldn't pint point what had happened to her, it made her furious. At some point she started to do things to fill that emptiness she didn't want to have."

"I guess that's why she's so crazy though I like to view it more as a free spirit"

"Luna doesn't believe in love or the thought of happiness, so if you tell her about your love ordeal be careful. She will say harsh things but try to see it in her point of view"

I nodded at her, I something hitting the glass…it was raining it looked nice seeing the rain trickle down the glass roof. We finished our tea and sat there thinking to ourselves.

"Oh…there you guys are, come on we are going to watch a movie!" said Rika waving for us to hurry

For the rest of the two days left here, we watched movies I saw photo's of Rika and Raven when they where young and some of them held Luna. I could see what Raven meant; Luna seemed troubled and scared even though she was smiling.

I got to learn what Raven did as a living which was helping her father out with businesses which where very complicated, I had trouble remembering. It didn't surprise me to learn that Raven had finished high school when she was fifteen, got into the family business at sixteen. Rika had other plans for her future, she didn't want to just work for her dad, I wondered what I was going to do with my future.

"It was so nice meeting you two, I had fun" I said hugging both

"We had fun too Maribella!" said Rika

"Luna try not to cause too much trouble…now with the holidays around the corner"

"I promise Raven"

"Come visit us"

"Sure thing Maribella!"

"Isabella, take care of Luna…try to enjoy what you have, take advantage of what life is giving you"

I nodded and we waved good bye to the Roberts sisters, I could tell that Raven was different she could see things other's would pass by as nothing. I don't believe it was coincidence Raven was the one who helped Luna to recovery; I think it was more like destiny.

So there's chapter eight!
