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.

210. Chapter 209

"No way," I say to Edward and he groans, gripping his hair.

I pout; I wanna do that!

"Why not, baby?" He asks, pleading with me. I frown and look away, knowing that I'd say yes to anything if he looked at me like that. "You need to check out that ankle; you haven't walked on it for days."

I huff, knowing he's right. "You need to go to work."

"Actually," he says, coming around to sit with me on the bed. "I don't."

My head whips up and I frown as I regard him. "What?"

He winces. "I called in sick to make sure you went. Good thing I did, too."

I bite my lip and watch him carefully. "Fine… fine… but we're seeing your father."

He smiles. "That I can agree with."

Yay... uh, yeah. I have stuff to do, but I've got some pre writtens.

In other news, I am floored by the response to Femme Fatale. I mean, there's only 2 reviews but the alerts and favs are... yeah. Cool. Thanks!

Please review
