I do not own twilight or any of it's characters.
Ok, most people seem to want longer chapters, so here ya go, this is only 1000 words or so, but I will be posting again most likely on Monday, and it will be longer!
Ch 15
Still EPOV
It had been 3 weeks since Bella had been out of the hospital. She was on medication for the pain from the surgery.
She acted fine whenever she was around anyone, but I was extremely concerned for my beautiful Bella. To say that she was not acting like herself would be a understatement.
She had become extremely distant to everyone. Locked in her room all day. She had told everyone that it was just because she was tired and that she was recovering from the surgery and that she was fine, but I saw right through her.
I still went over to her house every single day. She would be sleeping, I would sit in the rocking chair before leaving. Carlisle said that it was most likely mild depression and that she would overcome it on her own.
Her mom had came up a few days ago and was staying and taking care of her, Bella was not very happy with it. She said that she didn't need any help, that she just wanted some rest before she had to get ready for college and plan the wedding.
I was sitting in my room listening to music when Alice busted though my room, literally. She didn't even take time to open the door, just came crashing through the wall.
"Edward! It's Bella! We have to go now!" Alice screamed
I jumped up and was out the door in the blink of the eye. I was running full speed to her house. I could hear Alice's thoughts behind me.
'Edward, I am so sorry, I should have seen it sooner.' she addressed to me in her head, as I ran as fast as I could.
What could be wrong? Was she sick again? Was she in pain? What was wrong with my angel. I suddenly started thinking about her requests for me to change her and was overwhelmed with regret that I didn't change her sooner. She would have never been going through all of this pain if I would have just made love to her and changed her, instead of making her marry my first. I was not only a monster, I was the worst kind. The kind that hurt the person her cared most for. More than once had I hurt her. I had left her after her birthday causing her extreme emotional pain that made her want to do extreme things. All the pain didn't even include the constant danger that she was in.
As I stopped at her house, I began scaling the wall to her window. Alice was suddenly behind me, stopping me.
"Edward, I really think I should go in first, while you wait out here." Alice said in a motherly tone.
"Alice, have you absolutely lost your mind? First you bust through my room and tell me something is wrong with my love and now you are trying to tell me that I can't go in there?! What the hell is the matter with you?" I seethed.
"Edward, trust me, if you go in there right now it is going to be bad, really bad, and things between you and Bella just might be over." Alice said concerned and she patted my arm and jumped out of the tree, and went to the front door, opening it without knocking.
I took off running as fast as I could through the forest, I had to clear my mind. If I went in there then my Bella may no longer be mine. My life would be over and I would have no other reason to exist.
How had all this happened. So much had changed in so little time. Just a little over a month ago I was so happy. Bella had said that she would be my wife. Everyone was so happy for us, even Charlie and Renee.
Bella had been nervous about telling Renee. But when she gently broke the news to her, Bella was shocked that she had accepted the fact that she was going to be married. She was actually excited.
After that Bella had become distant. She didn't want me to hold her at night, because her stomach hurt her. Which really hurt me. I just do not know what to think anymore. This is coming from the mind reader who knows what everyone thinks.
I eventually stopped running, realizing that I was in Canada. I slowly started walking back to Forks. Alice would call me if she needed me, or when I was supposed to come back.
What was I going to do? I got it! I need to show Bella how precious she is, I have to do everything in my power to get her out of this depression soon!
I didn't care anymore, I started running again. I knew Alice could handle things, but I needed to see Bella, now. Whatever it was couldn't be that bad. Nothing could tear me and Bella apart. Ever.
I slowly came up on her house, and walked into the front door. I heard more than one voice upstairs, and there was yelling.
I made it upstairs to see what the commotion was about.
I opened the door and the first thing I saw was Bella passed on the bed with liquor bottles scattered around her. An ash tray full of cigarette butts in it on the night stand.
I ran over to her, to make sure that she was breathing. She reeked of alcohol, but she was breathing.
I quickly looked over to see who was arguing.
Alice had someone pushed up against the wall and was screaming at the person as the person sobbed.
My mind was blank, I couldn't register what she was saying, or what any ones thoughts were. It was like Bella described a nightmare to be.
I moved closer to see who the person was.
My dead heart shattered into a million pieces.
It was Mike Newton.
I know. This is a pretty mean cliffhanger. SORRRRY. Hehe .. I bet whenever my best friend Megan reads this, I will be getting a phone call.. Lol
If I get a lot of reviews I will work my butt off and post next chapter tomorrow!!
Love, Hannah
