Wow! Hello people! I'm totally amazed by the amount of reviews I have got for just the first chapter. Eight! That is totally amazing, and not one negative one! You guys rock! Honestly, if only those few people who didn't review and just story alerted had reviewed to. (Hint, Hint.) Anyway, here is chapter two. Not as long, but hopefully good enough for you. I'm sorry if it's a bit OOC.
Disclaimer - I don't own. I know, unfair right?
Chapter Two. Bella's Point Of View.
Beep. Beep.
A steady beeping rung through my ears, a constant beeping that was my constant reminder that I could possibly still be on earth, or a constant beeping to count down the seconds to when I would leave the world and meet my, most likely, dead parents in heaven.
To me, it felt like my whole life was a black void, stuck between life and death with a constant reassuring beeping.
Beep. Beep. Beep.
The sound kept repeating for a long time, however, was interrupted. Far in the distance, or so it sounded to me, were two faint voices. After recovering from the original scare of the beeping I was now completely out of place... yet again.
As I felt my heart speed up I heard the beeping speed up. I also had the feeling the voices heard it too as the area surrounding me went back into silence except the beeping once again.
The soft droning of voices that was once just a muffled sound in the background soon became more hear able over time and became a soft chiming from almost right beside me, singing words I could finally make out.
"She'll be fine Carlisle. I'm telling you." A beautiful voice tinkered.
"I know, I just can't help but worry. She can't be any more than five years old and with such a tragedy in her life at such a young age... well, you know Alice. What else do you see?" A beautiful, safe and kind voice that I guessed to be Carlisle asked the girl named Alice.
"I- I see so many different outcomes..." It was all silent for a moment, "I see her coming to live with us, and growing up healthily and happily... I see her with normal familys too but... she doesn't look as happy as in the visions with us... I also see her waking up in less than a minute!" Her voice rose on the last word and without having to see her I could just picture a big smile in my face.
A soft chuckle came from around the room, echoing off the rooms.
Sure enough in a matter of seconds I could feel the rest of my senses returning. Starting with my feeling. I could feel a pain in my leg, a dull thudding, but it was easy enough to block out and ignore.
I could also feel a pounding in the back of my head and a sharp, terrible pain in my chest. Just from feeling the pain my eyes started to water in pain, causing my eyes to open to a blurred sight.
I was in an unfamiliar room, all white, clean and organised. Full of machinery, most of which I was hooked up to and it wasn't long before I found the source of the beeping that had kept my brain constantly working through my time in... unconsciousness? Unawareness?
The smell was a very clean smell, full of disinfectant. A smell I was used to as my mom couldn't go a day without her cleaning fetish kicking in. I let out a small, quiet laugh, but it seemed someone heard me.
I turned my head to see two beautiful, angel like figures.
One was average build, male, with beach blond hair in a white coat with a blue tie. The other was a female, describable as a pixie. She was not very tall with short, jet black spiky hair. They were both inhumanly beautiful, pale as ghosts and had deep, beautiful golden eyes. The colour of liquid topaz.
"Wow." I whispered, "Mommy was right! There are pretty angels in heaven..."
At this I saw the corners of the males lips curl up and curve into a slight smile. I guessed this was Carlisle.
"No little one. You're not in heaven. You're fine. You're in hospital." He smiled, "I'm Doctor Cullen, I'm here to help make you better."
"If you're making me better, did you make my mommy and daddy better?" I asked, sure of the answer deep down, but I didn't want to face it.
Doctor Cullen's face dropped, as did the females, Alice. I felt my own drop too.
"It's okay. They have gone to heaven haven't they?"
Doctor Cullen nodded, not sure how to break the news to me. It would have been hard, I was four, I didn't really understand much. I wasn't dumb though.
"That's okay. They're safe there..."
"I'm sure they are." Doctor Cullen pulled his face into a soft, sad smile.
Alice came over to me and sat on my bed that I was laid in. I felt her cold hands on my face, I didn't realise that I had been crying and she was wiping the crystal droplets from my face. I gave her a soft smile as a thank you. She smiled back.
"I'm Alice," She smiled, confirming my guess, "What is your name?" She asked me.
"Bella. It's short for Isabella... but I don't like that."
"Bella..." She tried the name out for fit. "Pretty." She smiled.
That made me blush big time, I could feel the blood rush to my cheeks, ready to form the inevitable blush that was sure to come.
"Just like you." (Yes, for those of you who know me, recognise that? Hmm!) She giggled, making the blush go from a light, pink-red to a full on strawberry red blush. I hid my face in my hands.
"You're so cute." She smiled at me and I brought my head up. I laughed my 'little girly' laugh. I then saw that Doctor Cullen had left. As if Alice saw my confusion she answered my question,
"Don't worry. He had to go sort something out, you're going to need somewhere to live now."
My mood dropped again. Of course, I wouldn't be able to live with my mommy and daddy anymore after the accident. I would have to go to an orphanage, a foster home or a permanent adoptive parent's house.
Great.
"Alice? When will I have to go to another home?" I asked,
"Not yet little one. You're pretty bashed up, haven't you felt any pain?" It wasn't until then that I realised my leg was thumping. I scrunched up my eyes,
"Ouch." I breathed,
"Silly Bella." Alice sighed,
"You broke your leg and cracked two of your ribs. You also fractured your skull! How you couldn't of realised that until now!" She rolled her eyes. We'd only know each other for a couple of minutes and already we were acting like best friends, sisters even.
I hoped that my life would get better from now on, I hoped that Alice would stay part of my life. She was my best friend already.
