Chapter Two
Am I Asleep?

Bella could hear everything, but feel nothing. She couldn't feel the knife slicing her tummy but she could hear the doctors and nurses talk about random things. Her father came up more than once by the ladies in the room and how lucky Esme was to have him and she could hear the jealousy rolling off of one lady's voice. It was not a proper way to talk.

Bella was wondering if this was normal. To be awake but asleep. To feel but not to feel. She could feel the tugging of something being pulled out of her and heard the snip and the sounds of the suction. She wondered if they properly put her to sleep or if she was dreaming feverish dreams, though she didn't feel feverish, in fact she felt a few degrees cooler than earlier.

Her eyes refused to open. It was as if a heavy weight was holding them down. The ten-year-old girl was pulled into a deeper state of unconsciousness then and heard nothing as she heard the doctor stitch her up.

When Bella awoke, her parents and Emmett were by her side. Esme was holding her hand and stroking her face, pleased that her temperature dropped several degrees and was at a steady 101.1, but that was way better than 104.3. She felt something fuzzy between her arm and side and looked down and saw a stuffed monkey. Another gift from Emmett. Bella got monkeys and Rosalie got bears. She smiled.

"Hey baby girl," Esme said, getting her attention. "How do you feel."

"Better." her voice slurred, heavy with sleep. "Daddy?" Carlisle came over to her and smoothed her hair back, smiling and helped her sip some water.

"Yes, my little one?" He asked. "Are you in pain?" She shook her head.

"Daddy…" Her eyes drooped and whatever she had to tell him would have to wait. Esme looked worried and Carlisle caught the worried look.

"She'll be like this for a while, drifting in and out of consciousness until the anesthesia wears off. It'll be a few more hours." He comforted her.

Bella had been in the hospital for a day. They were keeping her for a few days to keep an eye on her incase she got sick. She was on IV antibiotics for the time being. Bella looked around her private room, her parents were gone and her siblings were at school. She lowered her blanket and lift up her gown and started to take the gauze off to look at her incision mark when her father came in for his lunch break.

"What do you think you're doing little miss?" He said suddenly causing Bella to jump. She lowered her My Little Pony gown and covered herself up.

"Nothing daddy!" She said, trying not to smile. Emmett and Edward were teaching her how to lie effectively, but the blush always gave it away.

"Uh-huh, and pigs fly." he said and went over to her and kissed her forehead, pulling out Burger King from behind his back. Her eyes lit up. "This is just a one time thing." He said and put a child size chocolate milkshake on the tray and took out her nuggets and fries that were actually apples shaped like fries. He wanted to make sure she had something healthy. "Now were you just looking at your incision?"

Bella nodded as she ate. "Wanted to see what it looked like. It's going to be wicked cool." She said.

"It's going to be a tiny 2 inch scar." Carlisle countered back, enjoying this very much.

"It's going to be totally awesome." Bella said nibbling on her nugget and looking thoughtful. "Daddy? Is it possible to… be awake but asleep while being operated on?"

Carlisle seemed surprised she would ask that. "How come you want to know?" Hoping his thoughts were wrong, hoping that she was fully asleep and hoping she didn't feel anything. Bella took a long sip of her chocolate shake and set it down.

"I heard everything. The doctors and nurses talking." She said and Carlisle folded his arms, looking serious.

"Did you feel anything?" Bella shook her head. Carlisle leaned over and kissed her forehead. "Eat your lunch, my little one. I'll be right back." He got up and left her there nibbling her lunch. She looked around and then went for another sneak peek at her scar.

"Wicked." she said amazed at the size. Few things astounded Bella and 2 inch scars on her tummy is one of them. She covered the scar back up and went back to her lunch and yawned. She wondered what her father was going to do.

"Bella?" A soft melodic voice called out to her as she slowly woke up. She saw Edward and smiled brightly, next to Carlisle and Esme, Edward was her favorite person. "Bella… I'm going to eat you." Edward said and bent down, covering her mouth as he bit her neck. "Mmm Tasty." He murmured as he continued to suck Bella dry.

Bella shot up in her bed, crying and feeling sick. It was dark in her room and her blankets had been kicked off. She didn't even know when she fell asleep. She buried her face and cried.
