I shuddered. Poor Bella. I put my hand on her forehead and wheeled her into a private room. I allowed Charlie in and Esme when she turned up but none of my family or Charlie's friends. No visitors except the father. Charlie said he wasn't going to tell Renee (Bella's mother) as she was having a third honeymoon with her husband Phil, and 'didn't want to interupt the romance between them'. I looked at Esme, and she looked dodgily back. I sighed. What an eventlyfull day it was for us.

Chapter 13: Tension & Regret

Edward POV

I tensed after Tanya left the car, still in her smug look. I drove out of the woods and and stopped after 200 hundred yards. I banged my head on the streeing wheel. My head filed with Esme's disapointment, Carlise and Alice's disgust and Bella - my heart drooped. What on earth was I going to say? What would I do? How will she take it? Would she ever forgive me? Does she already know? My heart sank lower at the thought.

I drove home slowly, taking my time for my nerves to not get the better of me. It turns out that the usual half an hour jornery took three times as long and as I drove past the Forks welcome sign, the panic resummed and I turned onto the three mile drive to the house. But when I came to the end of the drive and the house came in sight, I saw an ambulance leave and drive past me. I frowned in confusion. Carlise's work car was near the door and so was Alice's Porshre, Emmett's Jeep, and Roaslie's BMW was there too. I parked near the mouth of the drive and got out. I stopped - what would I do?

Then suddendly, the front door opened and out came Roaslie and Emmett, followed by Alice and Jasper. They all glowered at me, oh crap, they know. Alice and Roaslie stormed up to me and in turn slapped me in the face. "What was that for?!!" I yelped, rubbing where I proberly had a red mark. They both threw daggers at me. "You have to ask?!!" Jasper spat. Then I got it. "Oh" I said.

Alice gasped "It's true?!! You complete twat Edward!" She smacked my arm "I didn't believe you could do such a thing! In this family! To us, to Bella!!" she glared at me. I sunk my sholuders, hanging my head. Why did I do it again? When I looked up I was greeted by my parent's very disapointed faces.

"Edward Anthony Cullen - Please. Explain. The. Issue. Quickly. Before. I. Punnish. You. Dearly." Esme said, emphersising how angry she was in every sylable. I gulped - it had been years since I was scared of my mother like this. I didn't even want to know how Carlise felt.

"I don't know how to to mom" I said, blankly. I looked up and they all looked shocked. "What do you mean Edward? Are you saying this was a spur of the moment decison and you didn't realise what was happenning?" Carlise said quietly. I nodded and looked him in the eye "I honestly and deeply regret it now - I didn't realise what I did till I had did it." I started to show strain.

"Your father has had enough of heartattacks with one pacient alone Edward" Esme said sadly. And it was that sadness in her voice that made me raise my head. "What do you mean...has...has anything happened?" I asked nervously. I didn't realise she would answer. "Yes, Edward - it was..." she broke off and Carlise put her arm round her.

"Alice, Emmett, Rose and Jasper, go back inside." he ordered. They all went and Carlise nodded his head to the front door. He explained as we walked to the front door. "Something has happened...with...Bella."

My eyes widended as I stopped and stared at them. "WHAT?!!" I yelled - making Esme jump. "What happened? Did someone hurt her? Does...does she know..about.....what...what happened?" I whimpered as they thought came into view. Why did I have sex with with Tanya?!

"Yes and well..she was the pacient we mentioned earliar - the girl having..heart attacks." Esme muttered. But I still heard. I howled mentally and turned and punched the oak tree on the side of the path. It hurt but I didnt yelp. My main pain was from my heart. The stress, the worry, the many texts, something had bugged her and I hadn't asked - she hadn't said and it had built inside her - maiking her health bother her.

I explained to them, what had happened - why I had walked so quickly from the house, floored from here to my secret place where I'd texted her to be. explained that I had seemed to deliberatly come on to her and she had been all too happy to do so. I was just about to say what had happened before I left when I heard someone cough behind me. I turned around.

Bella was leaning agaisnt the house - clearly heard all I had said - arms crossed and expressionless. You could tell she had had a few rough days by just looking at her face. Black marks under her magicly and messmerising chocolate brown eyes. But as soon as you realised she wasn't smiling and wasn't happy to see me - you could tell I was in shit.

She continued to stare me down - "Bella, I can explain"I started but she narrowed her eyes to silence me. It worked. "I already know" she hissed. She had no idea how seductive she sounded. As if she could read my thoughts, she glowered at me in disgust. "Carlise - bless you for helping me at the hospital - same for you Esem, looking after me - good day." and with that she turned and walked away.

OHH EDWARD IS IN THE SHIT NOW ISNT HE (SOZ 4 SWEARING BTW) AND NEXT CHAPTER - OUT SOOON! :)
