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.

311. Chapter 309

There's a frown of concentration of Edward's face as he looks down at my belly. His hand is firmly against my stomach, both of us practically not breathing as we anticipate our child's movement.

I know we're attracting the attention of the guests – not that we didn't before – but we're so far gone that there's no point in denying it.

And then, there's a soft little kick. It's soft but quick against my already hard belly.

It makes my breath hitch and I swallow hard, trying to hold back my emotions.

Edward's too far gone, however, and breath leaves him in a huff. He strokes my womb and the smile I shoot at him is watery.

But so is his.

I know. I'm sorry.

Do you wanna know what took so long? That's ok if you don't... I'll tell you anyway.

1. I couldn't get anything. Bella wasn't talking to me.

2. I was concentrating on my other story, A Choice, because the current chapter is 16 pages so far and I'm having trouble with it. But, it needs to be there.

3. School work. Enough said.

4. Just... generally focusing on other stories. :D

Please review and tell me that I haven't lost more readers than I have already.
