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.

378. Chapter 376

Edward had said he'd wanted to start off by himself.

So, whilst being supportive, with my hand in his, I look out the strange-looking window. Part of me is trying to act oblivious to the problem here, but as Edward Masen gets up again, I realize that that's impossible.

Mr Masen makes a bee-line for me, angrily speaking lowly back at Edward. He walks to the left, trying to anger my Edward, but my husband holds his place confidently, only moving to his right so he's standing in front of me and my womb – our child – protectively.

When I look around them both, all I can see are the imaginary lines being drawn. Fear in Edward Senior's eyes as he sees Edward's blaming gaze.

And I can see that… part of this, at least, is pointless.

The looks on their faces tell me… they're beginning to wonder why they came.

Lyrics from second half of first verse (used in this chapter):

Some sort of window to your right

As he goes left and you stay right

Between the lines of fear and blame

And you begin to wonder why you came.

JUST A NOTE: Talking will come… soon. Promise. But for now… is it cheesy?

Please review and tell me if it is…
