Chapter 8
Recap: I had done this for a few moments before the most amazing thing happened to me…
Her hand all of a sudden tightened in my hand so she was now holding my hand. I jumped up and yelled for Carlisle.
"Carlisle! Her hand moved!" I was ecstatic! Maybe she would wake up today!
Carlisle rushed into the room and checked her over. She then started groaning and moving on the bed, but she didn't wake up. A nurse went over and took her vitals real quickly before leaving the room.
"Edward she's recovering very well but she probably won't wake up today to tell you the truth.
I looked down at the ground heartbroken. "Okay".
Carlisle walked out of the room after patting my back, and I sat down on the chair grabbing her hand again thinking: Bella please wake up.
BPOV:
The darkness was getting closer.
I was standing on a white surface looking straight ahead and I could clearly see the darkness. I turned around and ran.
The darkness caught up with me. I felt the pain go away. I didn't want the leave this painless sanctuary. Death is easy, life is hard. Then I heard someone calling me back into the light.
"Bella! Please come back! Wake up! I love you so much! Please wake up!" I looked into the light and I saw Edward leaning forward on the chair holding my hand thinking to himself, kissing my hand at the same time. I felt as if I heard his thoughts. He loves me?…He loves me!
I started running towards him even though it means that I have to go back into the pain. The light got farther away. I started running for all I was worth heading to the angel who loves me. I jumped forward and the light got so bright I thought I was going to go blind.
I then fell back to earth.
EPOV:
I was holding her hand once again begging her in my mind to wake up to me. I had started kissing her hand unbeknownst to me.
I cried out in agony "Bella please wake up!"
Then the most beautiful voice answered "I am awake Edward".
My head shot up instantly. I was looking into the most beautiful brown eyes I had ever seen.
My Bella is awake…WAIT SHE'S AWAKE!
"Bella!" I yelled joyfully. She finally woke up! "CARLISLE! She's awake!
Carlisle, having heard me rushed in the room checking her over, the same nurse rushing up behind him. I stepped back giving him his room only to find myself being tugged back by Bella. Oh I forgot I still had my hand in hers. I was trying to tug it back but she refused to let go. I saw the panicked look in her eyes and gave in.
"Well Miss. Swan you gave us quite a scare there" Carlisle said to her.
"I'm sorry" She replied looking guilty.
"Oh Bella I'm sorry I didn't mean it like that" Carlisle said panicking. 'Poor thing. I didn't mean it like that'.
Bella just sat there looking like she was going to pass out any moment. Carlisle seemed to notice that.
"Oh Bella just go to sleep. You've had a tiring day" Carlisle said.
Bella just nodded and fell back asleep. The male nurse again made his swift exit, but not before thinking of a man named Billy. I just let it go, assuming he was thinking of a friend or family member, nothing was more important right now than Bella.
I sat down again and grabbed her hand. I brought it to my mouth and kissed it gently. I forgot Carlisle was there until he called my name, making me jump.
"Edward?"
"Yes?" I asked.
"You love her don't you?"
I looked at him while thinking…I do love her. I am surprised. I just met her and yet I feel the need to have her by my side.
"Yes I guess so…" I thought.
Carlisle just walked out of the room to finish his rounds and left me alone with an angel.
I went home around 7 to go freshen up and update my family; I decided that I would go hunting after.
I arrived home to a frenzy of questions by my family minus one. Rosalie. She had been sent out to go hunting and cool down for a bit.
From what I heard from Alice she was grounded from sex with Emmett for two weeks. Emmett didn't seem to mind since he was pissed off at her with her attitude. All their thoughts were curious and they kept shooting questions at me I could barely keep up.
"Alright guys go sit in the living room and I will tell you what happened!" I yelled frustrated.
In less than 3 seconds everyone besides Rosalie was seated in the living room in various positions. I sat down on the love seat in front of everyone. I took a deep breath and started describing all that had happened in the past day while I was with Bella. I was still deciding whether to say that I had fallen in love with Bella when I heard Alice.
'Edward just tell them. They are going to find out anyways so might as well do it right now'
I nodded at Alice and cleared my throat once again gaining their attention.
"Guys this might look bad but…" I stopped for a second. Then continued "I'm in love with Bella".
There I said it.
Everyone but Alice looked at me with shock in their eyes. Suddenly Rosalie burst out in anger, having only just got back from her hunting trip.
"What?! What were you thinking?! Why the FUCK did you let that happen?!"
That got me angry.
"Well excuse me Rose! I'm sorry if I ruined your perfect life! Forgive me for having feelings towards another person! I didn't exactly plan this but it happened and so I'm letting it run it's course! I don't care if you don't approve because your opinion doesn't matter to me much!" I shouted back.
"Well maybe if you had left her alone then maybe it would have never happened!" she yelled back.
"Rosalie Hale! Stop your inexcusable attitude right this instant! Do you want to add another two weeks to your punishment!? I didn't think so! Now, your brother has found someone who had made him so happy and so I do NOT want your attitude to ruin this for him!' Esme yelled.
Rose stood there in shock for a minute before running upstairs.
Emmett thought about following but I told him not to since she had expressed that she wanted to be alone.
We just sat down again in quiet. Not even talking. I was thinking about going to get my books and do homework and make copies of my homework for Bella but Alice was one step ahead of me. She raced upstairs and downstairs in two seconds. '
In her hands were stacks of homework one for me and one for Bella. Bella's pile was considerably bigger seeing as she was going to have to be in the hospital longer.
I looked at her with a confused expression wondering how she got all this extra homework.
"I told them Bella is in the hospital and she needs her work" Alice replied.
I nodded my head and went to do my homework all the while thinking about Bella.
JacobPOV:
As I patrolled the woods around La Push for the night I thought of what I had overheard my father talking about.
My cousin was not doing so well, she was in the hospital. Something about Uncle Charlie and stairs. I knew that my father thought he was hurting her, and to be honest, I believed him. I wouldn't put it past Charlie to hurt Bella. Ever since she was a baby he blamed her for her mother's death, to the point where she even believed it herself.
My father and I knew better, she was only a child when it happened, a new born baby.
I missed my cousin, ever since my father started trying to call social services, Charlie had stopped us from visiting her. I know from random trips into town that she wasn't doing so well. I had hoped that we would be able to get her out of that house, but no such luck yet.
I hated that we had to wait for something else to happen to her before we could take her away. Everyone believed Charlie, believed that lie that she had fallen down the stairs.
As I was stewing over the whole situation I felt one of my brothers pop in my head.
'Hey Jacob how's everything going?'
It was Jared. Guess it was almost time for him to take over for me.
'Yeah it is dude! It's almost one in the morning!'
'I didn't even notice!' I thought to him.
'Who is that you're thinking about? She's beautiful' he whispered.
'That's my cousin Bella…that is sort of a sore subject for my family and I' I said, not wanting to go deeper but knowing he'd be able to see my thoughts and memories.
'Oh wow, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to look….' he said.
'I know man, we can't help it'.
'Are you going to try and help her?'he asked.
'We want to but as you can see we cannot do anything at this point. She refused for years to talk to people and so right now they are refusing to take my father's calls now'.
'I'm sorry…'
'It's okay…I better get back home, I have school in the morning' I said, giving my farewells before heading off to my house.
JaredPOV:
As Jake got to his house and phased out, his cousin's face stuck in my head. She was so beautiful, a beautiful young woman. She didn't deserve what was being dealt to her.
As I patrolled around the area, Bella's face stayed on my mind and I did nothing to stop it.
A/N: Hey guys sorry I haven't updated recently. I went to comic con then I went on a trip to Yosemite national park and San Francisco. Thanks for being patient.
