Hay guys, i know its been months since i last updated but these last few months have been heck-tick for myself due to that fact that i just recently became a Mummy, besides the point i have decided to take up writing again. But please dont yell at me if it comes out really slow, im still gonna update as much as i can.
I don't own anything to do with the Twilight Saga, it belongs to Stephanie Meyer. But i wish i did. Please do not sue me.
RXR. RXR.
Everything hurt, but I felt some what safe here, where ever here was. It was dark here, I liked the dark, I felt safe here.
But I also felt alone, I felt so alone and scared. I didn't want to feel like that.
I wanted to be wrapped in Jasper's cold arms, for him to tell me everything was gonna be ok, even if it wasn't. I needed him. I needed Sirius as well.
What was that sound, that low beeping noise; beep. There it was again. What was it? It felt close, but distant at the same time.
Where was I? It felt odd, my surrounds felt clean and safe, and it made me feel uncomfortable.
What was that? Something was beside me, it was cold, ice cold, and it was holding my hand, and those hands felt coarse and rough, but some how gentle rough, not hard mean rough; it was a rough I'd only ever encountered with one person before.
"I'm so sorry Lace" a distant familiar voice says.
Jasper.Jasper was here, I'd know his voice any where.
Wait? Why was he sorry? What had he done? Was I dead? There were so many questions I wanted to ask, but I couldn't find my voice to ask them. I felt his hand leaving mine, and I tried desperately to grip his hand, but my body was far too numb.
What the hell was going on?
What had felt like years later was only a day or so when I woke. Sirius was waiting for me beside the hospital bed they'd brought me to. But Jasper was no were to be seen or heard.
Sirius had explained that I had some sort of a fit or some thing like that, but he wouldn't tell me anything past that. So now here I was staring up at one Dr. Carlisle Cullen as he told me what I wanted to know.
Carlisle sighs slightly as he walks towards the end of the bed and says "The reason your in here, is because we had to take you into an emergency operation after we found traces of Sub-Tonic poisoning in your blood. Its a virtually undetectable poison, and can be mistaken for Aids, and Syphilis. Luckily your case was discovered in the mid-early stages, if it had been left undetected for any long, it would have rotted your internal organs from the inside out, and we wouldn't have been able to save you".
I sit back in shock, my hand was wrapped in Sirius', and I knew I was squeezing his hand to tight, but he hadn't said anything to stop me.
I look up at Carlisle as I ask "How could I have been poisoned?".
"The simplest way would be through injecting, but it seems you were voluntarily giving yourself, and..".
"Myself?" I ask as I quickly interrupt him.
"I wouldn't voluntarily do this to myself. I rather like the idea of been alive!" I practically shout at him.
I take a deep breath as I try to calm down. I watch as Carlisle reaches into his pocket and then pulls out a small glass bottle that was filled with a sickly white subtenancy.
"Was this the medication your previous doctor gave you?" he asks.
"Yes. He said it would dull the pain somewhat. I had to take it once a day, as soon as I get up" I tell him.
Carlisle nods slightly as he puts the bottle back in his pocket, he then says "Miss. Nightshade, not only have you been injecting it yourself, but it would seem that your intake of food at home as also been laced with it".
I shake my head in disbelief, Morgan had been poisoning me. Why? Just when it seemed I could really begin to trust her, she went and stabbed me in the back.
"Your career, Morgan Cole is waiting outside. She wishes to see you. I'll let her in, but I will stay on your behave. I've taken the liberty of looking out for you, on the wishes that my son Jasper wants you kept safe and away from harm" Carlisle tells me.
I look up at him on the hear of Jasper's name. Jasper wanted me to be safe.
"Where is he?" I ask quietly.
Carlisle smiles as he says "He's fine. That's all I can tell you, he wants to discuss the rest with you later. When he arrives".
I smile slightly at the thought of seeing Jasper. I nod slowly as I look back at Sirius. Carlisle sighs low as he turns and walks towards the rooms door, he then grips the handle but turns to look back at me.
"I'll let Miss. Cole in now" he tells me.
I nod slightly as I grip Sirius' hand tighter. I smile when I feel him stretch his fingers slightly – I knew instantly he was trying not to hurt me.
I then turn to face the door as I hear it open, and then the form of Morgan walks through into the room. I watch as she smiles slightly and walks towards me.
Morgan sighs when I notice her eyes land on mine and Sirius' intertwined hands. Morgan then sets her bag down as Carlisle closes the door, she instantly turns to face the door and looks full of shock when she finds Carlisle still in the room.
"You can leave now Doctor. I wish to speak to these two alone. Thank you" she says, her face instantly plastering with a fake smile.
Carlisle shakes his head as he walks towards the seat in the far left corner of the room and sits down.
"I've been advised to keep an eye on Miss. Nightshade, as you are the only one been accused of this out come" he tells her.
I look at Morgan in disgust when she scoffs and then turns to face me. She smiles a fake smile as she runs as rough hand through my messy hair.
"Can you belief this Lacey, I'm getting blamed for the pain my dear little girl is going through" she tells me.
I quickly reach up and grip her hand, and then pull it away from me head as I look at her with hatred and fury.
"No one calls me Lacey but my parents! No one calls me their dear little girl but my parents! And seen as though your neither of them, you can go shove a dildo up your arse" I tell her with venom in my voice.
Morgan laughs slightly as she takes my free hand in a tight grip and then says "But sweetie. Your parents are dead!".
And that was all she needed to do to make me snap. I was on her in seconds, my hand free from Sirius' and the IV drip was pulled violently from my hand and slammed to the floor as I sent myself and Morgan flying to the floor. I screamed as I grabbed her collar and then slammed her back against the cold hard floor.
I scream again as I pair of strong arms pulls me back. I didn't register whose arms they were, I didn't care. I only cared that the woman on the floor should have been dead. I should have been allowed to kill her, but I knew deep down; my parents wouldn't have wanted me to do that.
"I should have known he'd have a lackey cleaning his shit up for him!".
My voice was harsh as I screamed at her. And my temper rose even more as I watched her sit up slowly, her head was bleeding slightly, but it should have been wore. I should have made it worse.
Morgan laughs menacingly, she then spits out a mouth full of blood as she grabs her bag and leaves the room without a single word.
I try desperately to free myself from the arms that are holding me back from hunting her down and killing her. I freeze as I'm suddenly turned around and forced into a deep hug with the owner of the arms.
And that was when I noticed it was Jasper holding me back, and suddenly everything slowed down and all that I was bothered about was the man holding me tightly in his arms. I settled slightly as I forced myself to relax into his hold.
"Lace?".
I look round at the sound of Bella' Swan voice. I smile brightly when I see Bells stood in the door way with none other than Edward Cullen stood behind her.
"Oh. I'm sorry. I didn't know you had guests already" she says with a guilty look.
I pull back from Jasper slightly, but not enough to leave his hold. I then shake my head as I look up at Jasper.
"No, neither did I" I tell her.
"I can come back later" she tells me.
I pull my eyes from Jasper's and look back at Bella. "You don't have to go Bella".
"Lace is right Miss. Swan, you can stay if you want" Jasper tells her.
I look up at him with a bright smile as I mouth 'Thank you'. I look round when I feel a hand on my shoulder. I smile when I see Sirius stood there.
"I gotta go. I'll be back later" he tells me.
"Why?" I ask him.
"Well, one I have dinner plans with Alice. Two, I have some business to take care of" he tells me.
I laugh slightly as I pull away from Jasper and give Sirius a hug. Sirius laughs slightly as he hugs me back. A few seconds later we pull away, Sirius then ruffles my hair with a bright smile.
I swat his hand away as I say "Hay, not the hair".
Sirius does a fake shocked face, and then heads out of the room with another laugh. I chuckle slightly as I turn and watch him go. A few seconds later I look up at Jasper with another bright smile.
"Rest. I'll go see if the nurses will get you something to eat" he tells me.
I nod and then lean up and kiss his lips. A few seconds later we pull away and then Jasper disappears from the room. I look round at Bella to find her now stood by herself, and wearing another guilty look.
"So, you know?" I ask her.
Bella nods as she walks into the room and follows me towards the bed. I sigh as I sit back down on the bed, and lay back slightly. I watch as Bella sits down in the chair next to me.
"So, how did you find out?" she asks.
"Well, I brought an old war book, and it had a picture of Jasper into from the 1860's. I confronted him about it, that's what happened that dinner time. But it wasn't until he came by the house later that night that I found out about the whole vampire thing" I tell her.
Bella smiles as she says "Jacob told me what I needed to know, I figured it out from there on".
"He better be good to you Bells, or I'll hunt him down and try to kill him" I tell her with a bright smile as I pat her hand slightly.
Bella laughs as he nods her head slightly and says "Yeah. I was thinking the same thing about Jasper".
I laugh slightly as I hear this. I look towards the door suddenly when I hear a soft knock. Stood there was Dr. Cullen.
Carlisle smiles as he says "I've come to re-attach your drip Miss. Nightshade".
I nod as I say "Ok. Just, one thing Doc, please don't call me Miss. Nightshade, I prefer Lace, less formal and more practical".
Carlisle nods with a smile as he walks towards me and then begins to re-attach the IV drip to the back of my hand.
