Ok, so my block has almost fully disappeared, but I do know where I'm going with this story now. I can't promise regular updates with this story, but I will try my best to update at least once a week.

I sped up a little as I got onto the long empty stretch of road before the turn onto the road heading towards Seattle. I tapped on the wheel in time to the music coming from the radio. I didn't know the song, but I liked the way it sounded. It made the drive better somehow.
I looked at the time on the radio and sped up again. If I didn't get to Seattle in time, Ruth would never forgive me. We had arranged to see a movie and have dinner after as today was the only day I could get off from the station during her time off.
As I focused back on to the road, I realised it was just in time to see a deer run out onto the road. I jumped in my seat as deer were not common in Forks. I slammed on the breaks and tried to turn the car slightly but the deer began to run at full speed towards the car. Instinctively, I swerved to avoid a collision but lost control and hit a tree.
My body jerked against the seatbelt causing pain to stab through me. My head hit the wheel and vision became cloudy. I felt blood gliding down my forehead and from my ears as the world began to spin. Everything went red before a blanket of darkness covered me in its warmth.

I look at Charlie as he lay still on the bed. The loud beeping of the hospital equipment and my heart straining against my chest. I knew Ruth was crying but my mind didn't have room to process the fact someone other than Charlie was here. Tears welled in my eyes as I thought of the events that had led to us being here...
Xavier and I were watching TV when the phone rang. I stood up to get it.
"Hello?" I said into the phone.
"Is this the daughter of Chief Swan?" the person replied, they sounded like they were worried too. I began to worry because no one referred to me in that way. Something must have happened to Charlie.
"Y-yes, this is Bella Swan. Has something happened to my dad?" I answered in a rush.
"I wanted to tell you that your dad has had a car accident and is in the ITU at Seattle Hospital. When can you get here?" the woman asked.
"Right away," I said before dropping the phone and rushing to get my things together so I could go to Charlie. Xavier was watching me as I rushed upstairs to change my clothes and pack my toothbrush and a few clothes. I heard his footsteps coming towards me before I saw him standing at the door of my room with his hands open, ready to pull me into a hug.
I let myself cry once I was in his arms. I suspected he didn't know what was wrong but was feeling my pain. He kissed my hair and rocked me gently from side to side. The tears came down as the fears built up making me want to cry even more but I knew I had to get to Charlie as soon as possible.
I stepped back a little and tried to smile at Xavier but it came out in a grimace.
"Bella, I don't know what's happened, but if there's anything I can to do help, I'll do it," he said sincerely. This made me want to cry even more because I didn't know what I'd done to deserve someone as good as Xavier.
He helped me finish getting my things together and bundled me into the passenger seat of his car. Before I could protest, he said that I was in no state to drive and asked where we were going. On the way there, I told him what had happened, Xavier looked he wanted to cry himself though he had never even met Charlie. It made my heart swell to think a person so caring actually existed.
An hour later we were rushing into Seattle's hospital anxious to get to my dad.
RenéePOV
"Mrs Dwyer, -"Dr. Appleby began.
"Call me Renée, please," I interrupted. Although I loved Phil, I hate being called Mrs Dwyer or Mrs anything.
"Renée," he continued smiling now, "I am pleased to tell you that you are one month pregnant."
Something about my expression must have been worrying as his face changed from smiling to concerned. Beside me, I could feel that Phil had tensed at the news, but before worry could grow he let a shout of joy.
"I'm gonna be a dad!" Phil exclaimed. I wanted to tell him that I didn't think we could cope with another child but I didn't want to deny him this experience.
