Chapter 18

The Hospital

Previous

"Edward, watch the tree!" I yelled and then all went black as I collapsed with my back on the windshield.

…

All I could feel was pain all over my body. I was wondering, is Edward okay? Did he hurt much?

I couldn't open my eyes but I could hear Edward screaming. Thank God, he was okay.

"Just try your best!" he yelled with anger to someone.

"And why do I have to do that?" a man responded. His voice was similar to Edward's.

"Because she is my fucking girlfriend and I want her alive!" he yelled again. He was yelling about me to someone.

"Is she your girlfriend?" the man asked.

"Yes she is, and I want her safe and sound," Edward said but his voice was calmer now.

"Hey, it is not my fault that you crashed into a tree!" the man shouted.

"No, it is not your fault that we crashed, but it is your fault that, when I called you to come with an ambulance, you told me you were busy! She could have lost much more blood than she already has!"

The other man didn't speak.

After a second I heard Edward's voice.

"I am right, and you know it!" Who the hell was the other man?

"Yes, I know it, but I thought that it wasn't such a big deal. Like-" Edward cut him off.

"Like what? When I was a kid? I am NOT a kid anymore. I am NOT weak anymore," he yelled. I couldn't hear the other man's voice.

"Now please, dad, leave us alone." DAD? He was talking to his dad like that?

"As you wish, son." And then I heard a door open and close quickly.

After a minute of silence, I found the strength to open my eyes. I was in a white-blue room and I was lying on a bed. Hospital.

"Edward?" I called.

"Oh my God Bella! How are you feeling?" he asked.

I was in pain, but I could handle it with him by my side. He was sitting on a chair near the bed I was lying on.

"I am okay. What happened?"

"We crashed. Because I didn't notice a tree," he said with a sad voice.

"Are you okay?" I asked as I checked his body with my eyes.

"Yes I am okay, because I had the airbag. But you… I am so sorry Bella," he apologized sincerely.

"You are sorry for what?"

"I am sorry because I had my eyes closed and was driving at the same time," he said.

"I am the one who made you… close your eyes. I am so sorry Edward," I said blushing.

"Yeah, it was awesome," he said with a big smile.

Suddenly I remembered something.

"Is the car okay?" I asked and he laughed.

"Yes it is. Only two thousand dollars worth of damage," he said.

ONLY TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS?

"I am so sorry Edward; I promise I will give it to you-"

"What?" he asked, interrupting me.

"I want to give the money to you," I said.

"No way! I can afford it." He protested. "Please, tell me that you will forget about the money?" he asked me.

I thought about his offer for a minute.

"Um… okay. I have one rule though," I said.

"Anything," he promised.

"I want you to apologize to your dad," I said while I watched his face pale.

"You heard us," he realized; I simply nodded. "I can't do that," he said and he looked down at his feet.

"Why?" I asked. He took a deep breath and then I heard his tired-angry voice.

"Because he didn't come when I needed him," he answered. "He is a doctor and when I say, 'Dad I need an ambulance', I demand him to be with me. To support me. He never did. Not because he doesn't love us. Because he thinks we are weak kids and he never takes us seriously." Too much information. I assumed he was ready to tell me his story. I let him continue.

"This is why we robbed his bank," he explained. We? Oh. He and his brothers. "He thought we could do nothing. He though that we were weak-willed creatures." He was that bad?

"We wanted to do something to make him understand that we are powerful. That we had the strength to do something big and… you know. Something to scare him."

WOW! This was a nice story!

"Thank you for telling me, Edward," I said as I tried to lift my body from the bed to reach his face. I wanted to kiss him.

I made a sudden move and the pain hit my back.

"Bella, don't move, please!" he said as he put his hand on my chest to push me back onto the bed.

"What is your dad doing here anyway?" I asked suddenly.

"He was taking care of you and he owns the hospital." His father owned a bank and a hospital. They were rich.

"You have sutures on your back but mostly bruises and scratches," he informed me. That could explain the pain.

"It's okay, I don't hurt so much," I lied. "When will I be able to go home?" I asked.

"In a few hours, if you are ready."

"Okay, but first let me call my friend to tell her that I will be home in a few hours," I asked.

"I have told her, already," he said.

"What? Do you know her, or her phone number?"

"She called a few hours ago to ask you about something and I answered your phone. I hope you don't mind; she yelled at me because she said I have no right to answer your phone. I told her that I know that and I will never do that again. I told her that you are in the hospital and that you are okay, and she seemed very upset. She said to call her." I am going to kill her!

"Edward I am sorry, she didn't mean to offend you," I apologized.

"No, don't apologize. I know I have no right to pick up your phone or something like that. This is your property and despite the fact that I am in love with you, I understand your friend." he said.

Oh my God; he loves you!

"Did you say that you lo-love me?" I asked.

"That is exactly what I said," he said and he put his lips on mine. After a minute he pulled away and he looked at me. He was nervous.

"Um, Bella, I was wondering… if you want to… I mean…you want to go to my home with me after we will leave from here, to spend the day. I want to watch you," he asked.

I thought about it for a while. "Yes, I'd love to," I answered.

"Okay, I will help you to stand up and then we will go to my home. Okay?"

"Okay," I agreed.

He said that he loved me and I didn't answer him. Did he think that I am not in love with him? I am but I am not ready to tell him yet.

Maybe when we are at his house, I will be ready.

Tell me what you think!

Teaser for Chapter 19!

"Um, yes. Okay. Can't you give me a shirt of yours?" I asked. I felt completely relaxed inside his apartment.

"Yes, sure, I can," he said and we walked to his wardrobe. He pulled out a white shirt and he gave it to me.

"Thank you," I said and I started to undress myself in front of him.

"I can… go out-outside… if you… um…want-"

"No, no. I am comfortable," I said as I pulled my pants down. I was wearing the same clothes as the moment we had crashed. How many days or hours had passed?

"What is the date today?" I asked as I pulled his shirt over my head.

"Tuesday tenth of September," he said in a very formal style and voice.

"I was in the hospital for two days?" I asked, wide eyed. And I have my birthday on Friday.

"Yes you were. Alice came to visit you a lot, but you were sleeping. She told me to tell you that Jasper had asked her to be his girlfriend, after the call." Alice had a boyfriend officially! Oh my God! I am so happy for her.

"I am happy," I announced. Edward came near me and he put his hand on my waist and pointed to the bed. I walked towards it and he went again at his wardrobe and undressed himself as well. When he was only with his boxers on, he looked at me.

Love u!
