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.

173. Chapter 172

"Bella, Edward," Esme calls and she quickly walks toward us, smiling. Carlisle is behind her, walking at a more acceptable pace.

"Hey Esme," I say and we kiss each other's cheeks as is the French greeting. She moves on to hug Edward as Carlisle comes up and kisses just my left cheek. "Carlisle," I nod.

He nods back at me then greets Edward.

"Well don't you look lovely," Esme gushes at the both of us. She's wearing a lavender dress with a cute little jacket the same colour. Carlisle's tie was the same colour too.

"So, how is it going?" I ask quickly and Carlisle nods.

"As you know, they could never refuse the possibility of promoting their fund." He says and Esme raises an eyebrow.

"Not that they need it," she murmurs and she scowls as she spots something over my shoulder. "Ah well… speak of the devils."

Um, I won't pretend to know how a benefit works. I haven't a clue.

I imagine that they go inside the hall/hospital function place and there's dinners and speeches, so that's what's gonna happen. The dresses aren't explained and described a whole lot because you got the links. :D

Please review.

More soon,
