Bella POV
"Ms. Swan? Ms. Swan." I heard my name being called but I just felt so tired. Someone was lightly tapping my shoulder, most likely whoever was calling me. After a few seconds I decided it was futile to feign sleep when somebody obviously wanted my attention. I tried opening my eyes but immediately shut them when I was met by a bright light. I blinked a couple times to adjust and soon my eyes were completely open.
As I looked around it wasn't hard to figure out I was in a hospital. One with pale yellow walls, a small window and fake flowers. As I scanned the room I saw the nurse to my right. She was wearing purple nurse scrubs. She was older than me, not by much, but still she looked worn and tired. Like shes been here all night, which she might have. I heard a throat clear in the room and I looked in that direction. Two men stood there, and by their attire, they were both cops.
"Ms. Swan I'm Officer Bryant and beside me is Officer Troy. We are here to ask you a few questions." the tallest of the two, Officer Bryant, said. He was very large and muscular. He seemed more like a wrestler or a body builder rather than a cop though.
"Ms. Swan we have some complaints against you. One for verbal assault on two people at a airport and verbal and physical assault on a passenger on your flight. Can you recount these incidents for us?" I knew he wanted my side of the story but when it came to explaining in detail, I was lost. Everything was like a blur. Just bits and pieces scattered throughout my head. I had to say something or this would undoubtedly not end well for me. Officer Troy seemed to be getting more and more impatient the longer I sat quietly. He looked very uncomfortable. Maybe we shared similar views on hospitals. Officer Troy was obviously older than Officer Bryant. His features gave it all away. The slight traces of gray in his hair, the frown lines surrounding his mouth, and the creases in his forehead alone described him to be in his mid to late forties maybe. Whereas Officer Bryant had a much more youthful look to him. His shiny dark hair was cut short but still long enough to run your fingers through, his jaw was squared, and his skin only had a few imperfections that could have lingered from the years of teenage acne. He seemed to be in his early twenties and he looked good if I had to say so myself.
"I'm sorry I don't remember much but what took place on the plane was self defense. I felt very weary around that guy because no matter how much I tried to ignore him he would not back off. He continued his advances on me and being in my fragile condition I may have overreacted. I hope you can see my position here." I said. That went perfectly smooth. I added just the right amount of fear to my voice to make my story convincing.
"And what might that condition be Ms. Swan, if you don't mind me asking?" said Officer Troy asked. Apparently they did not know very much about me. Well at least there really is a such thing as doctor-patient confidentiality.
"Oh sorry. I'm pregnant Officers." I said softly while touching my hand lightly to my slight, not even noticeably under clothes, baby bump.
Realization settled over the officers faces. They seemed to be believing my story very easily. Officer Bryant started to write in his small notebook while Officer Troy whispered to him. After about three minutes they both looked back at me.
"Ms. Swan would you describe the young mans actions as borderline sexual assault or a full on account of sexual assault?" Officer Troy asked me.
"I'm not really familiar with police terms and I'm not really one to accuse someone so I cant put a name to his actions but what I will tell you is I have never been more scared in my life. I don't know if it was my mother instincts kicking in or what but I don't regret my actions even though I don't remember them to clearly." I said with a small smile which both of them returned.
"Thank you for you time and co-operation Ms. Swan. If the police have any more questions we have your file containing your telephone number and address so you might expect a call. But for now get some rest and take care of yourself." Officer Bryant said as he closed his notebook and put it and his pen into his pocket.
"Thank you Officer."
"Be well Ms. Swan." Officer Troy said turning to the door along with his partner. I watched as the door shut and the officers disappeared. After a few minutes when I was sure they were both long gone I finally could exhale the imaginary breath I had been holding.
I looked down remembering where my hands were, just where I left them, settled lightly but firmly on my abdomen. I still hadn't had a chance to think about my situation. I don't think I even had the time to ponder my pregnancy because everything happened so fast.
I heard a quick knock on the door before it swung open.
"Bella?"
