Chapter SIX: accidents

AMBRO:

As like the many nights since meeting her - Hannah was on my mind all night so I didn't get much sleep, it was Saturday and I groaned as my alarm went off at 8.30am, I reached over to the side table and turned it off there was no point in staying in bed and I slowly pulled myself out, I got dressed in my running cloths and headed down stairs, we really should get extra help for the café, I thought to my self.

Elma was in the kitchen making my protein shake when I walked in,

"good morning Ambro , another sleepless night I see" I nodded and grabbed the large glass of warm liquid, I could feel the thirst in my throat as I began to drink, I could feel it as it ran thru my body, I felt my strength coming to me, it had been a long week, but it was well worth the wait

"I'm off for a run" I told her as I headed out thru the front door just as I walked out the door I hit a tiny person down I looked to see that it was Hannah

"oh Hannah I'm so sorry" I told her as I helped her up,

when she was standing she began to laugh

"we really should stop meeting like this Ambro" I noticed her looking at my joggers "which way" she asked lightly, I pointed towards the school

"for the record I like seeing you" I blurted out without thinking I had hoped I hadn't gone too far "me too" she smiled at me her words were sincere she enjoyed my company too,

we jogged for a while, I admit she was good and kept good speed but I did have to slow down for her, when we got to the oval she had stopped and began drinking from her water bottle I saw her hand had a bandage on it " how is your hand" I asked her casually "oh its fine Edward looked at when I got home, and its healing very well" she was looking tired today, I'm sure it wasn't from the run her eyes had purple patches under them

"are you ok Hannah" I couldn't help but ask her, I watched her sigh as she looked toward the oval, I saw other runners it was the same as every morning

"I meet my sister last night, it just gave me a little shock that's all so I had a rather late night"

I wasn't expecting that to be what was wrong with her,

"shall we keep going," it felt like she was trying to change the subject from her sister I let it go and we began to jog down the stairs onto the oval.

we were half way down when she tripped and fell to the ground still holding onto one of the chairs from the stadium seating

"are you ok" I asked as I tried to help her up but we were no longer alone

"Hannah are you okay" another voice was asking I looked up to see two vampires a tall blonde and muscled brunette

"Emmet I'm fine really I just fell on my ankle, it's nothing" I watched as he helped her stand but she grimaced at the pain,

"Hannah with you its never just nothing" the blonde was saying with a laugh, that's when I watched the one she called Emmett scope her up in to his arms and she didn't feel to bothered by him in any way

"Jasper we should take her to see Edward" I heard them talking

"I'm sorry Ambro, maybe when I'm better we can go for another run" I smiled

"Any time" but by the looks on the vampires faces I didn't think they approved.

I watched them carry her away, as I ran onto the oval I saw that some of my team mates were also going for a run so I decided to join them.

but I was worried about Hannah, I hoped she was safe.

Hannah:

I was so embarrassed as Emmet and jasper took me home.

I watched as Edward was waiting with Bella on the front porch, I could feel the concern running thru there veins. it was really unnecessary to worry so much about me, I hurt myself that often that it was just second nature to me.

Edward told Emmett to put me in library on the couch, as we walked through the door I wasn't holding my head up far enough and I hit it on the door frame with a loud thump "ouch" I moaned

"this really couldn't get any more embarrassing" I spoke to myself as I rubbed the back of my head, I could hear jasper laughing and Bella telling him to stop but em was concerned as he spoke

"gee Hannah your going to knock your self out, it's a good thing your not a vampire otherwise there wouldn't be a door way any more" I let out a weak laugh

"I'm fine really, your all over reacting really" when Emmett place me on the lounge I felt empty, it was a strange feeling for someone you have only really just met he knew I wasn't happy so he sat beside me and placed my foot on his leg and placed his cold hand on my ankle.

Instant relief and the fire was inside my body again from his touch, he was as I remembered from last night.

"it feels like I have my own personal Bella to look after, you aren't best friends with a dog are you?"

Jasper let out a snort of laughter,

"Because unlike Edward I don't share to well" I didn't understand the humor in his comment.

I watched as Edward began to roll my pants up over my knee to reveal a rather large gash running down my knee and calf, it must have been the stairs.

I hadn't felt the blood or the cut, but I realized that's why I couldn't stand and why em had insisted on that he carried me home.

Edward had told jasper and Alice to leave the room but the stood in the door way keeping a concerned face on them. He didn't bother telling Emmett I assumed secret words were exchanged.

I watched Bella quietly as she cleaned the wound, she was gentle in her movements, but I saw that she wasn't breathing they all were holding there breathe all but Emmett.

"damn girl you did that falling over. Edward maybe you should change her too, so she don't hurt her self any more"

he was laughing with edward

"Emmett were not changing her" Bella was snapping slightly

"hey chill bells I was kidding, plus its good to see some one with a bit of color in there face, you two look very pale, are you getting enough vitamins in your diet" his jokes were a great distraction.

"em have you looked in the mirror lately, your not looking so well either my brother" Edward chuckled,

"nah sorry mate I haven't rose took all the mirrors with her when she left". I could hear very one hiding a laugh at his comment.

As Edward was preparing the needle and thread to stitch me up he was asking Bella if the wound was clean, and to inject some pain killers in to the wound,

'oh god needles'

but I knew it was so I wouldn't feel that huge silver needle in Edwards hand piercing thru my skin,

"it will be okay, just think of a good story for your scar because falling over, well I wouldn't be sharing that" I heard Emmett saying then I felt his hand near mine, it was barley touching my fingers I began to breathe slowly as I didn't want my heart racing as it would be dangerous for all or us.

I felt Edward cold hand on my skin as he began to start stitching up my knee at first the pain was over bearing, could feel the needle dragging along the flesh. pulling the thread thru behind it, by this time Emmett was now holding my hand in his as I bit back the urge to scream .

"What would you suggest?" I looked at his perfect face, and into his eyes, those brown eye I became lost in them, as I held my gaze I began to block out the pain. it didn't hurt nothing was hurting.

He was pretending to be deep in thought

"well you cant use a bear attack, that's mine, maybe we could use cliff diving, oh wait nope that bellas. she also has vampire attack, car accident , bike accident, vampire attack again, punching Jacob, and vampire attack, maybe we should leave it at fell over"

I couldn't help but laugh "you did all that Bella, how are you still alive" she looked at Emmett and then to me. She finally smiled.

"I used to ask my self that all the time"

"me too it was nerve wrecking every day" Edward chimed in,

"dude Bella hurting her self was hilarious but when Hannah does it, it isn't so funny any more" he was smiling when he spoke I began thinking what it would be like to kiss him again but quickly blocked the thought from my mind, we could only be friends. we couldn't let it go any further than that.

this made us both sad.

Edward was fast in his stitching and he was good, I learned that he also studied medicine and held two degrees in it so I was in safe hands with him, my leg was bandaged and my ankle was sprained, that meant 3 weeks at least off my leg then they can reassess the damage.

"Thank you yet again Edward" he walked towards me and gave me a hug "you are very brave, but it's not a problem" I hugged Bella as well feeling dizzy as I did.

"it's the meds making you woozy" I knew Edward was right but I could feel them starting to wear off.

Emmett carried me to my room so that I may rest, I could feel the burning start again and it was unbearable as I laid in bed Emmett stayed at my side

"shhh my love you must sleep, I know it hurts but sleep" he was whispering as he held me in his strong arms, although I was in a great deal of pain, it was nothing compared to the pain in my heart I felt with every thought that I couldn't be with Emmett and it hurt even more as I traced the ink on his arm.

I would never belong to him.

Not ever.

But I was falling in love with a vampire.

There was a light rap at my door breaking my concentration as I read my magazine on the kitchen bench my leg was hurting when I sat so standing on it gave me a slight pain relief and as I padded to the door and opened it Emmett was standing before me.

freshly showered in sweat pants and grey shirt, also carrying his trade mark hat and grin.

"were you sleeping?" he looked at my choice of clothing which was consisting of a large baggy shirt and barley there shorts.

"no it's okay" as I stepped slightly behind the door "so what you doing here anyway?" I didn't sound rude as I asked him, but he grinned wickedly.

"here as in your door way? Or as in the question of my existence here on earth or whether it is a cosmic coincidence or there is a greater purpose of me being here?"

I hide my smirk as he was trying to glamour me.

"so do I get to make a cup of tea before you tell your point of existence?" as I gestured for him to enter.

"sure" he said gently "but you wont have time to drink it" he had a glint in his eye as he went and sat on my sofa and turned the TV on , the volume was turned off , foot ball games I didn't see the point of it

"gee thanks Emmett, so who are you hiding from?" he kept watching the TV as he spoke

"every body" than with a second he was at my counter and in front of me

"so can I hang out here, I don't take up much room" I couldn't help but laugh at him

"Emmett your like the little brother of the hulk" I hobbled around the kitchen as I grabbed every thing I needed for my beverage, Emmett was flicking thru the magazine I hadn't finished yet.

"hey I don't turn green when im angry" he acted defensively

"and you happen to look in the mirror when your mad" I leant into me

"Hannah I don't get mad I get even" his breath was smelling of mint

"can I……." I stopped mid sentence hoping he didn't hear me as I was embarrassed at my absent minded comment I was about to ask

"what?" he asked as he kept flicking thru pages

"I was going to ask if you wanted some tea" I told him without looking at him I felt rather embarrassed

" oh yes please, I have it red, warm no sugar thanks" he always had a comment for every thing

"hmm em im all out of grizzly bear red, sorry" he shook his head

"so what the plan for tonight Accident Annie" he was a comedian tonight

"well I was thinking id go for a run, climb mount Everest oh wait I cant go any where because im in a lock down" I hobbled from behind the counter and to the lounge

"its not so bad" he sat beside me and for his size there was no movement in the chair, as I flicked channels

"that's easy for you to say, your 'unbreakable'" I wasn't angry but more agitated that I couldn't go any where

"why don't we do something?" he asked casually

"like a date Emmett"

he chuckled "I've never been on a date let alone with a alive person"

I thought about it, and the more I did the more excited I became "fine then ill decide what we do then, now shhh my movie is on" I sat and turned the volume up

"chick flicks" he asked looking pained

"my house, my TV , my choice" and that was the end of it as we sat in silence

"its actually my house" he whispered and with in seconds had a pillow thrown at him.
