Hello fellow readers and writers! I'm sorry for the week delay that has happened since the last chapter, I sincerely apologize. I was handling some personal issues but I now find myself more fit to give you a chapter. Please enjoy! Oh! And thank you to all who has reviewed. : )
Place: Forks Hospital
Date: Tuesday. March 17
I leaned against the wall of the hospital, watching Edward and Bella's conversation from the corner of my eye. I felt Rosalie's presence next to me and I turned toward her, her eyes were hard and she looked angry.
"Why did you go over there?" she hissed and I raised an eyebrow.
"I was making sure Bella was alright, I'm sure Edward didn't want her to be passed out or in shock", she threw her hands up angrily.
"You knew she was fine, I don't know why you had to go waste your time; Edward already helped her enough we don't need you helping her too", I pushed myself from up the wall and glared at her.
"What's that suppose to mean!" I said my voice getting louder. We both glared at each other for a moment and I growled and walked over to the seats near the door yanking my bag up. "When you get over your attitude, call me!" I yelled back to her and stomped away. Edward was storming away from Bella and I was moving toward her.
"Evian", she called after me and I stopped and looked at her. "I-um, thanks for helping me", I felt my anger simmer down and I nodded shoving my hands into my pockets. I watched Carlisle guide Rosalie down the hall.
"It's no problem Bella, I don't mind", I said honestly and looked over at the clock. My mom would be getting off work soon and I was sure I could get a ride with her. "Listen, I gotta go find my mom, um I'll talk to you later", I said smiling at her. I made my way to my mother's office; I weaved through little children in the pediatric ward.I searched through all the people til I found my mother in a child's room.
I hesitantly knocked and the little girl and my mom looked up; I stepped into the room when my mom motioned me in. "Um Mom, sorry to bother you but can I talk to you", she nodded and smiled at the little girl. She stepped into the corner of the room with me. "Can I get a ride with you, Rosalie and I sort of got into a fight", I explained and she nodded.
"Sure sweetheart I just have to check on a few more patients", I nodded and she stepped out. I was about to follow til I heard the little girl's voice.
"Wait", I turned to the little girl in the bed and walked over to her.
"You're Dr. Jean's daughter?" she asked timidly. I nodded with a small smile to her. "Cool! I'm Victoria, what's your name?" she asked happily.
"I'm Evian Taylor", I said with a kind smile. I studied the little girl; she was probably only eight or nine years old, she was very pale and small, her eyes had bags and were bloodshot, and she had no hair on her head. I could tell from the equipment in the room she had leukemia.
"Sit here with me til your mommy comes back", she said happily. I nodded and sat down with her, we spoke for a while. This little girl was so very mature, I had seen it before. Little children always grow up quick when they stand near death's door. She had a quick wit and as we spoke soon I forgot she was a pale, small, sick, little girl. She seemed just as kind and sweet as any child.
"Evian, there you are; let's go", said my mother in the door way. I looked over at Victoria and squeezed her hand with a smile.
"Bye Evian, come back soon okay", she said with worried eyes. "Promise you'll come again", she whispered and I nodded.
"I promise Victoria, get some rest now okay", I kissed her forehead and walked away.
Later I sat in my mother's car, the heater hummed gently as a backdrop to the car. "So what happened with Rosalie", my mother asked as she drove her eyes not leaving the road. I sighed and rubbed my temple looking over at her from the window.
"She got mad because I helped Bella Swan", I explained to her angrily.
"Oh right, I heard about Bella; maybe she just got jealous", my mother's eyes wandered to me for a second before returning to the road. I raised an eyebrow and shook my head.
"Bella's not gay mom; Rosalie was just being a drama queen", I stated and my mom shook her head.
"Doesn't matter if she's gay or not Evian; Rosalie probably thought you running over to help her meant you cared about her more than you do Rosalie", my shoulder fell with a sigh as I saw where my mother was coming from.
"I suppose that could have been it", I muttered and leaned my head back on the seat. When we made it open, I took a shower and dressed myself. I slid into bed a few moments after brushing and pulling my hair back. I lay in my dark bedroom listening to the pitter-patter of the rain on the window. I heard a soft creak of my floor and turned to find Rosalie sitting in my desk chair. I sat up and turned on the light next to my bed. I stared at her a moment before looking down and patting the empty space next to me in my bed.
She stood up and glided over gracefully; she slid off her shoes and stepped into bed with me. "I um, I'm", Rosalie struggled with her words and I shook my head.
"You're forgiven", I said knowing it was difficult for Rosalie to get past her pride to apologize. "Just to tell you, I don't care about her more; I love you", I stated and her eyes light up and she leaned over kissing my forehead. I slid further into bed and leaned against her as she wrapped her arm around me. She told me about how the whole family reacted to Edward's moves to protect Bella. Her melodic voice lulled me to sleep.
Date: Thursday, March 19
I walked along with Edward, Alice and Jasper as we waited for our time to go on a Biology field trip to a Botanical. Edward was smirking about something and I looked over to find him watching Mike talk to Bella.
"What are you smirking about", I joked with him.
"Mike was asking Bella out", I chuckled and patted his shoulder. We continued our way to the Botanical. The only thing I found interesting was Edward was finally talking with Bella.
I was staring at a strange flower in the Botanical when a shadow loomed over me. I found Mike standing over me with a grin; I was really hoping he wasn't going to ask me out. "Hey Evian!" he said happily.
"Hey…Mike", I muttered finding the flowers very interesting.
"I asked Jessica out to prom, she said yes", I looked up with a smile and nodded. I felt relief come over me that I didn't have to turn him down or something.
"That's great Mike", I patted his shoulder with a grin.
"Are you going to prom", I patted my lip with my finger in thought.
"I don't know, I'll have to see", I explained to him and he nodded.
"Well I'm gonna go, talk to you later", I waved to him and made my way back to the bus. I found Edward and Bella standing next to each other.
"You think I regret saving you", Edward said in a tight voice. "You don't know anything", I looked over at Alice and Jasper. Alice quickly stepped forward.
"Hi, are you going to ride with us", asked Alice to Bella.
"No, the bus is full", stated Edward coldly as he hit the bus door so the bus driver would open it. Alice and Jasper followed Edward into the bus. I stopped before Bella and gave her an apologetic look with a shrug. I felt bad for her; Rosalie didn't take as long to be kind to me. I sat down next to Edward who was glaring at the wall.
"This is going to be a long way home", I muttered quietly.
That's all for now! Hope you enjoyed the chapter, I'll update soon. Review please! Toodles. : )
