Everyone was dreadfully waiting for news on Alice. Finally after what seemed like years a nurse came out to talk to them.
"Alice Cullen," she said.
Emmett shot up," Yeah that's us."
"Well she's okay, but the cut on her wrist was much deeper than we thought it was. It seems like she was maybe startled and cut herself farther then she meant to. And the lack of blood made her get light headed and pass out. When she passed out she seemed to hit her head on something which caused some minor bleeding but all in all she's okay for now," the nurse told the little crowd that was waiting.
When they all heard the news they were ecstatic. Alice was fine and that's all that matters.
The nurse needed to say one more thing before she left. "Was Alice trying to commit suicide?"
"Well we know that these girls were bothering her at school and she was cutting but she never wanted it to go that far," Edward said.
"Okay. I think for Alice's sake though you should think about putting her in this rehab program. It's only once a week and she can meet with other girls going through the same thing. It's just something to consider," the nurse said walking out.
After the nurse left Emmett, Edward, and Jasper went to Alice's room. When they walked in they couldn't believe it was her. Like she couldn't be here in the hospital for something like this. She shouldn't be in this wing. She shouldn't be here. Not like this. All these cords and wires made her look so vulnerable.
Jasper was the first to reach Alice. She was still asleep but he brushed her hair out of her face. He didn't know what he would have done if this perfect little girl would have done anything serious. He wouldn't have known how to live.
"Well hello sleepyhead," Emmett joked when Alice opened her eyes.
"Emmett why am I here," Alice asked.
"Well Alice, "Emmett started, "look at your wrist." Alice looked down at her arm and saw that her wrist was covered in bandages and tape. "You did that to yourself. And when we talked to you about it you kinda freaked out and passed out. You hit your head on the table on the way down. That's why you're in here."
"But you're going to be okay. Everything is going to be fine," Edward said.
"Soon you'll be home and going to rehab and you'll be perfectly fine," Jasper said before he realized what he was saying.
The word rehab made Alice jump.
"Why do I have to go to rehab? I'm not crazy. I don't need to go," Alice started to freak out. All of the commotions made Alice's heart monitor go crazy. A nurse ran in and gave Alice a shot to calm her down. She was asleep in minutes. When she woke up in was dark outside. She didn't know what time it was but she knew it was late. She looked around her room and saw Jasper sleeping on the chair in her room. He probably told Edward and Emmett to go home.
While Alice was awake she thought. Maybe it wasn't bad for her to go to rehab. Maybe it would help her. Maybe everyone was right. Maybe she did have a problem. Maybe she needed help. Maybe Jasper was right. Alice looked at her wrist and over to Jasper and promised herself something.
She promised herself she would get better. She would get better for him. Because he was her everything and she finally realized she was in love with him.
