Chapter 2 is here! Yay! I updated sooner than expected. Anyhow, I think I forgot this in chapter 1. Oops. Disclaimer: All Twilight stuff is property of Stephanie Meyer and other respectful people and corperations, etc. This applies for my entire story because I may forget again and because it's a little redundant having to type that out every chapter. Anyhow, enjoy! : )

She stared up at me through tear-stained eyes. "What are you talking about?" She asked incredulously.

I smiled. "Thanks to you selling your soul, your father's life is spared." I made a fist with my right hand and blew into it. A ball of light appeared when I opened my hand. The light left my hand in a flash and sped through the doors of the emergency room. "Watch." I instructed her.

A moment later, a doctor burst through the doors. "Miss Swan!" he called. "Miss Swan, it's a miracle! Your dad... He's breathing!"

"What?" She exclaimed.

"He wasn't breathing or responding to anything we did. Dr. Gerandy was ready to-to pronounce him dead. And all of a sudden, he started breathing! He sat up and asked us what we thought we were doing to him! Then he said he felt fine and didn't need to be in any damn hospital!

Fresh tears began to fall from the girl's eyes. "You mean he's okay? Can I- can I see him?"

"Miss Swan," The doctor continued. "You're not going to believe it!" He paused for a moment to catch his breath.

"What?" She pressed, shaking the doctor.

"Well, we... we looked him over."

"Yes?"

"His wounds... They're completely healed!"

She fell backward into a chair and covered her mouth with her hand.

"We have to clean him up still Miss Swan," The doctor continued, "But someone will be back in a few minutes to talk."

She nodded as she watched the doctor go. Then she stared at me blankly. "You?"

"Me." I confirmed.

Another doctor walked over to us then. "Bella?" He asked.

"Yes. Is my dad ok? Can I see him?"

"I have great news Bella! He's going to make a complete recovery! We're keeping him here overnight for observation, but you can see him any time you'd like. He's in room 117."

"Thank you." She whispered as he left.

I had to admit to myself that this girl intrigued me. Her scent told me that she was stronger than she looked. And I could detect something in her that wasn't entirely human. What was she? I pondered this question for a moment as she sat there, stunned. Giving up for the time being, I turned back to her.

"Now." I said. "Having held up my part of the bargain, I expect you to hold up yours." I smiled, revealing my sharp teeth.

"What exactly will I have to do?" She asked me, worried.

I moved closer to her and whispered into her ear. "Anything I want."


1 WEEK LATER

BPOV:

After that guy left me in the hospital waiting room, and after I'd been in to see Charlie, I'd gone home. They'd released Charlie from the hospital the next day. After that, it's been pretty quiet around here. I doubted I'd ever see that... What was his name? Edward. I doubted I'd ever see him again.

I'd had this week and the next off school to deal with the "traumatic events" of my dad being shot, but I insisted on returning Monday. Charlie hadn't been seriously harmed. And besides, I hated doing extra work just to catch up. For now, I was busying myself with making sure the house was neat and clean.

Charlie had returned to work two days ago, despite protests from his doctors. Like me, he wasn't someone who could wait things out. He had to keep busy or he'd go insane. I'd invited his friend Billy over from La Push. There was some sports game on tonight that they could watch. Hopefully, it would get him to relax for awhile.

I thought that maybe while their game was on, I'd go uptown and catch a movie or something. There wouldn't be much for me to do around here. I finished loading the dishwasher and turned to head upstairs and there HE was. Just *poof* out of nowhere. I screamed, but he rushed to quiet me by placing his hand over my mouth.

"Sssh." He murmered soothingly. You know me. I won't hurt you... Much." He nuzzled my neck and breathed in deeply. "I've come to collect my first payment."

I saw a blinding flash of light and then I wasn't in my kitchen anymore. "What?" I asked the darkness. Suddenly, flames shot up in front of me and I screamed. The flames formed a circle and surrounded a throne-like structure. In the throne sat Edward.

"Welcome," He said. "To my home."

Okay, let me know what you think of chapter 2. Also, with this being my first story, I'm not exactly sure of what I should have Edward do. If some of you could add in your reviews what you'd like to see- er, read- that would be helpful. And thanks to reviewers for chapter 1!
