I woke up in the hospital with Edward's face in my face. And I could not say that it was a bad thing. Not at all.
"Mhm.." I whined when it dawned on me that I was in pain. My side was hurting terribly and my foot was in some kind of brace. My head was hurting, like someone was beating a hammer against it. Edward looked concerned and put his freezing hand against my head. He pulled it away, but it felt so good and I wanted it back.
"Put it back…" I whined before he chuckled and put his hand back where it was.
"How you feeling, love?" Everything came rushing back. The car, Charlie, the police. And then I started to cry. I bet Edward was mad about the car. Really mad.
"Bella! Bella! What is it? What's wrong." Edward said in one breathe.
"I'm sorry!" I cried. Relief washed across his face before turning to confusion.
"What could you be sorry about love?"
"The car." He sighed.
"The car is fine. Rose fixed it. It is perfect. Do not worry about it."
"What about Charlie?" Edward sighed again.
"Prison. He was sentenced two years and five years probation after that. They got him for attempted murder. You can go back and file abuse charges if you want though." I shook my head no. There was no way in hell I wanted to go and testify.
"Rehab?"
"Yes."
"And me?"
"Two bruised ribs, broken ankle, and several bruises and cuts."
"Not bad." I said. This was not the first time and I could recall much worse times. Edward huffed.
"Bella, you had a concussion and were out for a week and a half, how can you say not bad?"
"Been worse. When can I leave?"
"I don't know love. Carlisle is coming though." Not seconds before he said it Carlisle walked in the door. He smiled at me, but I didn't quite feel like smiling back.
"How are you doing Bella? Any pain?"
"I'm fine." I lied. I was not the kind of person who was going to whine about the pain they are in. Plus, if I whined when Charlie was around I would just get into trouble. There was no point in whining about pain just to bring more pain upon yourself. Carlisle looked at me disapprovingly.
"Bella, it does me no good, nor yourself, for you to lie to me." It felt kind of like a father scolding his child, but I didn't really know what the exact feeling of that was. I only knew the back of a hand coming in contact with my face.
"I just have a head ache. Can I please go home?" I was willing to beg. I did not like hospitals. Something about them reminded me of something I did not like. What it was I do not remember, but its there. Kind of like an eerie feeling.
"You may go today if you wish." Carlisle said good bye after his beeper started to go off. I though about being able to go home and then I remembered I had no home. Charlie was in jail and I was left all alone. Edward must have noticed something was wrong because he asked me about it.
"Where am I going to live?" I asked, confused about my situation.
"With me of course." Edward said as if it was something that should have been known from the beginning.
"Oh." I smiled up at him.
"Come on, love, lets get you home. Everyone is going hunting tonight. Then tomorrow I must go while they are with you." I didn't like the idea of Edward leaving me, but I would be with his siblings and I would get him all to myself tonight and in the morning.
Once Edward's family had left I started to get more and more tired. I wasn't really able to do much with a broken ankle. (like me J) I just wanted to take a shower and sleep. The question was, how?
I couldn't do it myself. I could not even get in there. I would have to ask Edward. That was my only option.
Finals are coming up and I have a color guard to run since I am captain this year. I am getting stressed once again so chapters are going to get short. Sorry peoples.
