A/N: This was just a fill in chapter. I had a slight case of writers block and have been struggling on how to fill out the story line. I have even been attempting to write it in school. All will be explained.

If you have any questions or queries, feel free to leave a review or a message. Just to let you know, this chapter is the end of the night/morning after the prologue.

Becky (Musings): The order of the chapters in chronological order is pretty messed up. It works in the story overall, but you'll have to bear with us for the moment. Thus far, it's something like Chapter 1, Chapter 3 (not yet posted, lmao), Prologue, Chapter 2. Confusing… I hope you get it. I really do.

Shout out to Musings of a Shaken Mind who inspired me.

As Bella began to move about in her sleep, I started to hum her lullaby, knowing that it would soothe her quickly. Unfortunately, even though she had stopped moving, she soon began to talk in her sleep.

'Edward' she mumbled to herself. 'Edward.. I.. I love you.' I loved hearing her say that. I wish she wouldn't though. She still hasn't managed to get her head around that fact that she puts her precious life in mortal danger every moment that she is with me.

'I love you too, my angel' I whispered back, so as not to wake her.

I just couldn't help myself. I really did love her and it hurt me to be away from her. I kissed her on the cheek – twice – before going back to humming. I had written the lullaby for her not long after we had gotten together officially. She would hum along to it whenever I played it, hitting the notes to perfection. I loved her, and I couldn't believe it had taken me so long to realise that.

I don't remember much of last night, just the unbearable pain I had been through. I still couldn't get it round my head what had actually happened. One minute he was there, racing on his motor bike the next minute he was…I felt Edwards arm wrap around me, pulling me closer to him. He knew I was awake. I turned to him, smiling up and him, and lay my head lightly against his chest. I shivered at the coldness of him, but didn't move my head. I saw him chuckle, but couldn't work out what. I closed my eyes for a moment, allowing my mind to drift back to last night.

I was standing there, smiling and laughing with our friends. Carefree, as ever. He was on the bike, racing around the track—showing off in front of me—no surprises, there. He had just driven round the last corner, speeding up as he headed for the 'finish line'. I heard an ear –splitting sound in the distance, to see Alice coming towards me, screaming my name and complaining about my outfit. Typical Alice. I didn't think much of it and turned back to watch him. He had obviously turned round to see what the fuss was and had lost control of the bike, because the minute I turned round, he was spinning through the air, his bike skidding across the ground on it's side. He fell right on top of the bike, hitting his head off of one of the handles…

I opened my eyes, making sure I was back to reality.

Phew, it was only a nightmare. I wiped the sweat off my forehead, and excused myself from Edwards grasp to have some human time. I picked up my wash bag, a clean towel and walked quickly to the bathroom. I jumped into the shower, not taking my time. I just needed to be with Edward. The thought that he could leave me like he did the last time still haunted me.

Climbing out of the shower, I wrapped the towel round me and brushed my teeth. Once I was completely satisfied that I was done, I turned to take me dressing gown off the back of the door. It wasn't there. I looked round the whole bathroom, which isn't even that big, looking for it. It wasn't here at all. Not even in the laundry basket.

Damn it! What do I do now?

I opened the door, hoping Charlie was still asleep, since it was only half eight in the morning. I walked slowly and quietly over to my bedroom door and crept in. I must have forgot that Edward would have heard me because when I closed the door behind me and turned, Edward was sitting upright on my bed staring at me intently. I jumped a little causing the towel to loosen. I grabbed at it quickly, pulling it tightly round me.

Edward stood up and ran to the window, jumping out of it, as fast as lightning, after realising what I had on. I relaxed a little. I opened the wardrobe doors searching for an outfit, forgetting Alice had done my wardrobe up. I pulled out a pair of black skinny jeans, a plain white t-shirt and a faded grey waistcoat. I pulled them on quickly, before hurrying to the window.

'Edward' I whispered remembering Charlie was asleep. 'Where are y..' Before I could even finish my sentence, I felt my favourite set of arms wrap around me once again. 'Sorry about earlier. I just forgot to take in some clothes.' I blushed, turning a deep shade of red. He took a step back, grasping his head between his hands.

'Do you know how close I was?' I just shook my head. 'I was so close to, well you know, biting you. You know I would never do anything to hurt you, but your scent, well it is just so utterly tempting. You really ought to be more careful.'

I stood there, stunned at how he had just spoken to me, as if it was my entire fault. 'Excuse me, but if I remember correctly, it wasn't you that lost your be..' I couldn't even finish the sentence. The tears had already started, and I was struggling to control them. How was I ever going to cope with this?

I stood there in shock, amazed at how Bella, my true love, had spoken to me. She never spoke with that attitude and tone in her voice, only if she was angry. I didn't know whether to stay here or to go over to her. I took a step towards her, pausing to see how she would react. I held out my arms to her, and took her into them. She buried her head into my chest, hiding under her luscious, brunette locks. I held her there, while she cried her eyes out. She finally fell asleep and I lay her down on her bed, being careful not to wake her. It was only midday, but she had been up late last night. Charlie was up and was away to La Push. Seeing how everyone was.

For the first time ever, Bella started to scream in her sleep. I held her tight to me, unable to cope with the pain. I wish I didn't have to hear this.

'No…' was her final scream, the pain hitting me deep down. I couldn't bear to see her like this. Was she going to be like this every night? And as I tried to figure out if she would be, a thought came to me. Was this how she was when I left her?
