Why Edward? Why?

Chapter 21 "Her Choice"

BELLA POV

The blackness disorientated me; lying in a simple sleeping position, eyes tightly closed and hands balled into fists. I had no idea what was happening but I knew that with all my heart I was thinking the same thing: Let me live!

I fought for my heart to continue beating until it got up to the speed I needed it to; to restart my empty lungs, to clean my bloody from disease and pain, to ease my muscles into submission and out of the darkness my life had become.

I could forgive Edward like any other good wife would do. My common sense had caught up with me and was saying how he never hated me, never loved Tanya so it made sense now. She was a cheap slag who just wanted him for sex. He LOVED me. He couldn't even stand her.

I attempted, yet again, to take a breath of air. But all I could feel was a pipe halfway down my throat and I panicked. What if I choked on it? But I felt a hand brush along my cheek and remove the pipe, helping, me to breath. But it was wrenched out of my mouth, making the pain rip at my throat. I contained my gasp and felt my heart slow…and I heard a girlish fake laugh as I blanked out. I also remembered it containing fake nails as I passed away.

EDWARD POV

I groaned and sank back deeper into my chair opposite Carlisle's desk in his office at the hospital. He had been spending the last hour, to convince me that he couldn't allow me to use all my over-time at once. I couldn't believe this crap.

"Edward, it's perfectly clear" he had said, trying to remain calm. "If the other nurses and doctors see that I am allowing you to stay off work, longer than you are actually allowed at the hospital then they will argue along at me. The fact they you are my son is a way that they will see as unfair!"

But by this time I was tired of this crap. "I don't care, dad. I'm gunna go check on my wife which is the reason why I am staying off work!" I snapped and ran towards Bella's room. But as I tried the door, it was locked. I heard a cackle from inside.

"Bella? Is that you?" I called through the door.

"No and it shall never be her because she is DEAD!" I head a female shout, but I couldn't recognize it.

"Who is that in there?" I yelled, hammering on the door, these doors were normally open all the time.

"It's Tanya, Edward sweetie! Your wife has long passed on! She didn't seem to want her air-tube as she was choking on it. So I ripped it from her throat and she has died!" Tanya yelled, happily.

I could hear the sound of the heart monitor fading away. I couldn't loose Bella – not now!

I hammered on the door and it crashed open and what I saw was horrid. I saw Bella in her bed, the flat line just a few seconds away and she was struggling to keep her eyes opening.

Tanya was hovering over her with a nurse knife in her hand.

"Leave my wife alone you bitch!" I yelled and tackled her to the ground.

Tanya seemed to put up a good fight but after a second of fighting, I knocked her out and grabbed the pipe and tugged it towards Bella's mouth.

She chocked again as it entered her mouth but the beating of her heart started up again, slowly but alive.

She was finally breathing properly and I looked round to see several nurses and doctors, including Carlisle staring at me in confusion. I pointed towards Tanya knocked out on the floor. I knew that I was in the good. The CCTV would show I was innocent.

BELLA POV

I felt an uncomfortable darkness hover over me as if stating that I was going to die. I gasped in shock – no! I didn't want to die! Let me live! Let me live! Please!

A light shone on my face, directly in my eyes, I blinked – or at least tried to – let me live!

I felt my heart jotter as it struggled. No! I needed more oxygen! Let me live!

But suddenly I felt fresh air hit my face and I took a deep long lungful of air, preserving my life and waking me up from the dreaded coma. I twitched and felt the nerves awaking in m body, my brain warming up and my heart still breathing furiously.

I opened my eyes, blinking hard and looked up into my husband's shocked and tired face.

"I'm awake." I said simply before he caught up and the tears of happiness washed down his cheeks. I smiled – I had survived the internal battle with myself.
