How to Save a Life

by bexie25

Step one you say we need to talk, he walks you say sit down, it's just a talk. He smiles politely back at you. You stare politely right on through. Meeting on a bus, Edward and Bella are immediately attracted to each other but their gloomy, abuse-ridden pasts make them both hesitant to trust anyone. Follow them as Bella learns not only how to save a life, but hers is saved as well.

147. Chapter 146

Tension soon takes its high and mighty place before happiness by the time we reach the following Sunday.

Because tonight is the night; Edward and I will be going over to the Masen house for dinner.

To say that I'm nervous would awfully understate my feelings. I am, in fact, hysterical… scared… worried, pretty much all that I have been since the issue originally came up. Since that day that Edward didn't come on the bus… didn't reply to my texts… only to return the next day, with a busted up face.

"Baby," Edward calls softly through the door outside the bathroom.

I can't open my mouth; I'm afraid of what will come out if I do.

"Mm-hm?" I hum, unable to do anything else. Even that sounds shaky and uncertain to my ears.

"It's nearly time." He says and I listen to his footsteps as he walks away.

Panic.
