A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in a week, but I was reading Breaking Dawn, and it take me longer to read it then it probably did for you, but I liked it. If you wish to discuse it with me, then send me something and I would love to talk about. Well on with the story. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own the lovely and incomparable Twilight, New Moon, or Eclipse books. The wonderfully and amazingly talented Stephanie Meyer does. Sometimes this world is just unfair. I'm only borrowing her characters for the time being (though I wouldn't mind borrowing Edward for an eternity).I also do not own the songs that come with each chapter

Seeing Bella- Chapter 12

Walking down the hallway to see my dad, all I could think about was Isabella. I wanted- No I needed to know if she was okay. I missed everything that happened. I should have been there when she woke up, I shouldn't have listen to Alice and gone to Alaska. I wonder why my dad didn't call me when he found out she was awake, he knows that I have been waiting for this. I just hope she didn't wake up to an empty room, what am I talking about of course she did I'm the only one that visited her. I finally reached my dad's office, took one deep breath and knocked on the door.
I waited a few seconds, but I didn't hear anything, so I knocked again, but nothing. I walked down the hall to the front desk to ask where my father was. The lady that was sitting at the hospital front desk had brilliant orange hair and her eyes had this cat like fell for them with a hint of red in them.
"Um excuse me, but where is Dr. Carlisle Cullen?" I asked
"He is in meetings all day long." She said without even looking at me
"But I really need to talk with him." I said
"Well I'm sorry, but like I said before he is in meeting all day long." She said with a hint of annoyance in her voice, while she finally looked me in the eyes.
Her eyes bugged out, when she saw my face; I just nodded my head and headed in the other direction. I walked back to the room, where Isabella stayed. As I entered the room all I could think about was her again. I tried to remember how she looked, but all I could remember was the time I first came and visited her. How she had all the bandages and bruises all over her body. That was the only image that came to my mind when I tried to remember how she looked, I couldn't even remember how she looked just a week ago. I needed to see her NOW!
I walked out of her room and walked back to the nurse's station.
"Um hello?" I said
"Yes, oh your back, what can I do for you dear?" the elderly lady asked, once she recognized it was me.
"Yes, I was wondering if you could tell where the patient in room 413 lives?" I asked.
"I'm sorry dear, but I can't do that." She said.
"But I really need to see her; I need to make sure that she is okay You see I'm the one that put her in the hospital and I won't get any sleep, if I don't know she is okay, so can you please tell me where she lives?" I asked
"Well…….fine, but you didn't get it from me okay? Also I'm not sure if this is still her correct address or not" she said, while handing me a neon green post it.
"Thank you and what are you talking about I wasn't even here." I said giving her a small smile and walking out the door to my car.
Driving to Isabella's house, all I could think about was seeing her, seeing her smile, hearing her voice and her laugh. I couldn't wait.
I drove down her block and parked my car. I got out of the car and walked up to her front door. I took a deep breath and rang the door bell. I waited for a few seconds, but nothing, so I rang the door bell again and then I heard someone say "I'm coming" from behind the door. The voice sounded familiar, but I push that to the back of my mind. All I could concentrate on was seeing my Isabella for the first time.
From behind the door I heard a high pitched giggle and the door was yanked open. Standing in the door way was not my Isabella but Lauren! I just stood there in shock.
"Hello Edward, I just knew you couldn't resist me, I mean come on it's me. So what can I do for you, because you know I would do anything for you?" Lauren said trying to be seductive. I think I almost vomited in my mouth when she said that double meaning.
"Um…I think I'm at the wrong house I was actually looking for Isabella Swan. Do you know where she lives?" I asked backing away slowly
"You mean the girl that is in our Biology class?" she asked and I nodded my head. "Why would you want her, when you can have me? I'm way better looking than her, she is so plain, plus she doesn't even talk, how creepy is that." Lauren said.
"Well maybe I'm not in to looks Lauren, ever thought of that, of course you haven't because you're shallow. And Maybe I want someone who I can actually have an intelligent conversation with, which of course is not you. Anyway I have to go." I said. I felt a little bad about being so hard on her, but it was needed to be said. I just hope my mom doesn't hear I was rude to Lauren.
I got back in my car and looked back at the neon green post it to make sure that I got the right address. Umm…the 1 does look sort of like a 7, maybe that's it. I drove down the block and stopped at the address. Hopefully this is where Isabella lives, now if Jessica opens the door, I don't know what I'm going to do, but it won't be good.
I walked up to the front door, took a deep breath and knocked on the door. The door flew open and standing there was a man. He had the strangest blue eyes, with glossy black hair; he was a little bit taller than me, but not by much.
"Yes? What do you want boy?" said the man.
"Um I'm looking for Isabella Swan? Does she here?" I asked.
"Why and who wants to know?" the man said.
"Oh I'm sorry, I'm Edward Cullen." I said holding my hand out for him to shake.
"Laurent, so what do you want with Isabella?" Laurent said.
"Well I was wondering if I could see her or speak with her." I asked
"Well she's not here." Laurent said
"Do you know when she will be home?" I asked
"NO" he said and slammed the door in my face. I walked back to my car and took off toward my house. I wonder where she could be, especially when it's getting dark.
I turned the corner to my house and saw that all the light were on. I parked my car in the garage and walked in to the house. I saw that everybody was in the living room.
"Hey Edward, where have you been?" Alice asked from the love seat next to Jasper. I went to go sit on the couch.
"I went to go see Isabella, but she wasn't there, then this nurse gave me her address, but I went to the wrong house and I ended up at Lauren's house-" I was saying before Emmett interrupted me.
"You have Lauren for Biology huh? Trying to learn the female reproductive system up close huh? My little Eddie Weddie is growing up" Emmett said sniffling at the end and then starting to laugh.
"Shut up Emmett, only a desperate, half witted person would have sex with her. Oh wait that your type of women isn't it Emmetkins. No offense Rose." I said. I didn't want to get on Roses bad side or that would be bad, for me and my car.
"No offense taken, I'll be right back." Rose said, then left upstairs.
"So what did you do at Laurens house anyways?" Emmett asked while raising his eyebrows.
"I didn't go to her house on purpose I was going to Isabella's house, but I went there by accident. Well anyways after I left Laurens house I went to the right house, but she wasn't there, so I came home to get harassed." I said
"Well were going to watch a movie, do you want to watch it with us?" Jasper asked.
"What movie is it?" I asked.
"We don't know, but Emmett is picking it so you know it's going to be violent." Alice said.
"Sure, let me go to the bathroom really quick." I said I saw Rose coming down the stairs and sitting on the couch.
Once I was done using the bathroom, I started to head back to the living room to go watch a movie. As I was walking back to the living room, I noticed a girl walking down the stairs and she looked like she was going to fall. I went and caught her before she hit the ground. I looked more carefully at the girl and I realized that she was the girl from the grocery store. Man I haven't thought of her in a long time. She finally opened her eyes and I saw her chocolate brown eyes.
We stared at each other for a while, I was still holding her. After a while I heard some coughing and she broke our eye contact to look at my family, who were looking at us. She blushed a beautiful color of red. She tried to get out of my arms, but I didn't want to let go. Finally after a while I let go of her and set her on her feet.
"Bella this is our brother Edward." Alice said smiling.
"Hi, you're the girl from the grocery store right? And the girl that I hit right?" I asked. She nodded her head yes. We were quite for a while, just looking at each other.
"You two can look in to each other eyes some other time I really want to watch the movie now" Emmett wined. Alice grabbed her hand and led her to the living room. Alice and Jasper were sitting on the love seat, while Emmett and Rose were sitting on the couch next to each other. So that left Bella and me on the couch next to each other.
Emmett started the movie, but I wasn't paying attention to it, the only thing that I was aware of was Bella sitting next to me. Before I knew it the movie was over.
"That movie was awesome! Did you see the graphics they were amazing!" Emmett said. Bella got up yawned, stretched and started to head up the stairs.
"Going to bed Bella?" Jasper asked. She nodded her head and went up the stairs.
Once I was sure she couldn't hear us, I looked at my siblings, who were all staring at me.
"Why didn't you guys tell me she was here? I wouldn't have spent all day looking for her" I asked
"Because you left and even if we wanted to tell you your phone isn't with you." Alice said.
"But you could have said something when I got home." I said.
"Well we didn't, so what are you going to do about it?" Emmett asked.
"Nothing, but it would have been nice to have been warned. So did you talk to her?" I asked
"She didn't really talk, but she did write them down." Jasper said.
"What do you mean she didn't talk?" I asked
"Well we don't know that much about her except, her foster parents treated her horrible, and that she stopped talking when her dad died." Rose said.
"Well I'm going to go up to bed." I said. I got off the couch and walked up the stairs. I entered my room and laid down on my bed. After a while I got up to go take a shower.
I entered my bathroom turned on the water and stripped my clothes off. I then entered the hot water. The water felt really good against my skin. It soothed my muscles. After a while I turned the water off and stepped out. I dried myself and changed in some new clothes.
"Please don't kill him I'll do anything, but just don't kill him!" I looked around the bathroom, but I couldn't see anybody.
"Stop, you're hurting me, stop!" I looked at the other door in the bathroom. I turned the doorknob and entered the room. The room was dark. I realized that this must be Bella room
"Please stop, please!" The Bella said, it sounded like she was crying.
"Bella are you okay?" I asked as walked closer to the bed she was laying on.
"No, No, stop your hurting me!" She said. I realized that she was still asleep and I was now standing next to her.
"Bella it okay, no one is hurting you, and you're safe now." I whispered to her, as I touched her forehead, moving some of her hair away from her face. After a while she started to calm down and it looked like she was going to be okay for now. I touched her cheek and then I bent down and kissed it softly.
I walked back to my room and crawled in to my bed and fell asleep.
Love will remain a mystery
But give me your hand and you will see
Your heart is keeping time with me
What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine
