F POV
Weeks passed and I stayed alone in my depression. I visited Bella's body as often as I could, trying to help. Eventually she became stable enough for Carlisle to start getting the venom out of her system. Aro stayed in Bella's chambers talking to her, comforting her with the knowledge that her physical form was being repaired. I wandered in there after finding nothing else to do. Jealousy often prevented me. Aro was in the chair by the window, sitting completely still.

Felix?

I shook my head. I couldn't have just heard her voice.

Felix can you hear me?

'Bella?'

Aro was still completely still but her voice was coming from his direction.

It's me. How are you?

'I'm alright baby I just want you back for good.'

You don't have to lie to me Fix, I know you're upset.

'Don't worry about me sweetheart. I've been talking to Carlisle; nearly all of the venom is out of your system now. By the end of this week there will only be a tiny bit of it left that he can't get out but after what you suffered through I don't think it'll pain you.'

Then you've just got to hold on until then. I know you're strong enough.

'I love you Bella, I always will.'

I love you too.

I stood there in silence for a few minutes until Aro spoke.

'She's sleeping now.'

I nodded and left.

C POV
I knew everyone was glad to know that Bella's body was recovering, although I didn't know if the same could be said for her mental state. Finally I had done all I could to help her and it was in God's hands now. A lot of people have commended me for being able to keep my faith after all these years. When we left Forks Bella had featured heavily in my prayers. Nothing had changed. The poor child had gone through so much when she had done nothing wrong. I only wished that she would suffer no more misfortune when she recovered fully. Aro and Felix came to see her when I sent the message that her body was as ready as it could be. Aro sat on the edge of the bed and took her small hand in his. Felix explained to me that he was talking to Bella when he spoke.

'I know you're afraid filia but this is for the best.'

He grabbed my hand.

'You can see he's done everything in his power to help you, you have to have faith.'

He kissed her forehead for what seemed like a very long time. When he sat up he looked at me.

'She's back in her own body now.'

'She just needs to take it slow and get used to being in that body. Do you need me to stay?'

'I think we'll be alright.'

I told them to shout if they needed me and left.

A POV
It was strange not having her in my mind anymore. She started moving very slightly and trying to speak.

'Where am I?'

Her voice was shaking.

'Filia you're back in your own body. Take it slow, there's no rush.'

Felix came and sat on the edge of the bed.

'I'm here baby, just take it easy.'

We helped her sit up and tried to stop her from panicking.

'Fix?'

'Yeah?'

'Kiss me.'

I averted my eyes and left them to it.

'Angelus?'

'Yes filia?'

'I'm free.'

'What do you mean?'

'I mean I'm not... I'm not in any pain.'

I felt like I could cry with joy, it felt like all the hard times were over. She hugged me gleefully.

'I'm glad filia; do you want to try standing up?'

She nodded and Felix and I got on either side of her. We help her up and she wobbled a bit before falling onto Felix.

'It's okay baby, it might take a little while. You'll be back to normal soon.'

Eventually she managed to be steady on her feet. Although she had tried to keep it hidden for me I had seen her plans for when she got back in her own body.
'Filia, Felix, I'm afraid I have to... um... finish some paperwork.'

I winked at her while Felix just stared at me.

F POV
What on earth was he doing just leaving like that? Bella grabbed me hand and starting making her way out of the door.

'Hey slow down there's no rush, where do you want to go?'

She pulled me into another kiss.

'Take me to the bedroom Felix.'

'Are you sure? I don't want to wear you out.'

'Please Fix; I need you to make love to me.'

I scooped her up into my arms and got her to the bed. We practically tore each other's clothes off.

'I've missed you so much beautiful.'

He kissed every inch of her pale skin and felt a surge of elation when she moaned underneath me.

'Felix please.'

I slid inside her and rocked us both. We both revelled in the relief of finally being able to be together after so much hardship.

'Fix, I'm close... so close.'

'It's okay baby, I've got you.'

I came with her. She collapsed in my arms and I stroked her hair.

'We needed that.'

I laid us down and pulled the covers over her, she had fallen asleep with a smile on her face. This was the first time I had seen her looking so peaceful. I only hoped that she could put it all behind her and move on. A few hours later her eyes flickered open.

'Hey.'

'Hey gorgeous girl.'

'Felix... what happens now?'

'Whatever you want to happen. Carlisle wants to talk to you, he mentioned something about checking up on your mental health.'

'I don't feel very mentally healthy.'

'Do you want to talk to him now then?'

She nodded and we got dressed. I made sure she got some breakfast before inviting Carlisle in.

'Hello Bella, how are you feeling?'

'Um... tired, overwhelmed and frightened.'

'Why frightened?'

'I don't know I just can't relax. I keep thinking that something bad is going to happen.'

I saw the first tear escape and wrapped my arms around her.

'No one will let anything happen to you; we'll keep you safe I promise.'

'After what you've been through it's very likely that you could have some mental problems as a result of that. If you let me ask you some questions I could diagnose you properly.'

'Okay.'

I went to find Aro; I wouldn't let her go through this alone.

AN – Okay, so I go back to school tomorrow and I'm going into my GSCE years which are very important for my future. This means that I'm not going to be able to update as often. I'm sorry but my schoolwork has to come first.
