Chapter 5

Bella woke up, sitting up suddenly, Draco still fast asleep next to her. She rubbed her hand across her face, she was clammy and breathing heavily. She'd had a nightmare. But unlike any other. Edward had been in her nightmare, trying to win her back, and Draco had intervened, and Edward and Draco had fought, until Draco was on death's door, his already pale face, was ghostly white.

There was a quiet knock at the door. "Edward," Bella mumbled. She opened the door, and there he stood. Edward looked over her shoulder at the sleeping form of Draco, and frowned.

"Can I come in?"

Bella looked over her shoulder towards Draco, still sound asleep. "Now maybe isn't the best time…"

"Ah, yes. I understand. I will come back when he's gone."

Bella nodded, wishing she wasn't caught up in the middle of all this. Edward turned on his heel and walked down the corridor, turning to give a Bella a small smile as he reached the lift. Bella shut the door quietly once Edward had left, turning to look at Draco again. He looked so peaceful. She smiled to herself, and hunted for her shower things.

She carried them into the bathroom, and placed them in the edge of the bath. She filled it with hot water and bubbles. She needed a relaxing bath this time, the days events were starting to take a toll on her. She stripped her clothes off, dropping them into a heap in the corner, and climbed into the bath. The hot water scalded her legs slightly, and she flinched, but she continued to lower herself in, slowly. She lay back, the water unraveling the knotted muscles in her back and neck, allowing her to relax. She began to wash herself, being as quiet as possible so she wouldn't wake Draco up. She grabbed her strawberry scented shampoo, and washed her hair slowly, taking time to make sure each and every strand was covered. She washed it out, unable to stop the loud splashing as she did. She frowned and played with bubbles surrounding her.

As she bathed she mulled over what both Edward and Draco had said. She felt as though she was being made to pick a side. It was either Edward or Draco. On one side, she still held feelings for Edward, of course she did. But he left her. How could she trust him not to repeat his actions? He would always have a place in her heart, but she couldn't trust him again. She had given herself completely to him. She had loved him and he had broken her. Draco, may not have told her everything, but he did it with reason, she understood that. He wasn't forcing anything on her, she was making decisions herself, and he went along with them… Because he wants her to be happy. He came to her room with her.. Because he wants her safe… He was putting himself in danger, for her sake.

She got out the bath, wrapping herself in yet another towel, and went back to the bedroom. Draco was awake, and now dressed. He took in her rat-tailed hair and wet appearance, he pursed his lips. She looked at him inquisitive, wondering about the expression on his face.

"I'm going to get dressed," Bella announced, turning to head back to the bathroom. But Draco was quicker than her. He wrapped his arms around her waist from behind and nuzzled into her neck.

"But I like what you're wearing now." He murmured, pressing his lips to the side of her throat. She involuntarily shivered.

"You're cold." Draco let go of her, and turned to find her bag, pulling out a tatty t-shirt and jogging bottoms. He raised a brow. "You wear these to bed?" He dangled them in front of her, and watched with amusement as Bella's cheeks flushed lightly. She grabbed them from him, and walked into the bathroom to change.

He grinned at her as she came back out carrying the bundle of the clothes from earlier and a towel. She looked straight through him, in a world of her own. She was still trying to decide what to do about Edward… How she could get him to leave without hurting him more.

She climbed onto the bed, Draco watched her, wondering what was going through her head. He sat next to her, his hand creeping up the back of her top, along her spine. She looked at him, and smiled, tying her hair up. Draco put one around her, pulling her to him.

"Are you okay?" he asked, taking his hand out from under her top and rubbing her shoulders soothingly.

"I'm fine, don't worry. Just in a world of my own." She leaned back, resting her head on his shoulder, and looking up at him. "Are you okay?"

Draco chuckled. "I'm fine, just worrying about you."

Bella looked at him confused. "You're worried…About me? Why?"

"Because you are taking my being a wizard so well… I'm half expecting you to do a runner about now," he chuckled.

Bella shrugged, "I'm good with weird," she grinned.

"You are," he agreed, smiling. "Stay here, I'm going to get something." He slid out from under Bella, and walked to the door. "I'll be back before you know it." He winked and left the room.

Bella grinned to herself, lying on her back looking at the ceiling. Edward's head appeared over the top of her, and grinned down at her. She sat up, in alarm.

"Have you ever heard of knocking?" she hissed. "He's not going to be long… He's only gone to get something."

"Okay. I will make this brief. I love you Isabella Swan. More than anything. It took you leaving to make me realize. I'm sorry I hurt you. If you come back to me, I promise I will never hurt you again. You have my word." Edward's butterscotch eyes burnt into hers. He'd obviously fed since their last run-in.

"I…I can't Edward. I'm sorry. You hurt me too much."

Edward's angel face turned dark and meaning. "I will not leave without you Bella. I will fight to get you back. "
