Chapter Four: Being Stupid
Yay for lots of reviews! It made me want to get this chapter out faster! Thank you guys for taking the time to review!
Keep it up!
This chapter is probably going to be the shortest chapter of the four... But bare with me.
Two Weeks Later
"Bella, wake up." Edward said.
I yawned and rolled over on my side.
"Come on Bella, time to get up." He said shaking me.
"No." I groaned.
"Don't you know what today is?" He asked.
I ignored him hoping he would go away, he shook me though. I finally opened my eyes.
"It's moving day!" He said.
I smiled.
"We move into our home today Bella, aren't you excited?!" He asked.
"I'd be more excited if you would have let me sleep longer." I told him smiling.
"I couldn't love. Everyone will be here to help soon." He told me.
And he was right, Emmett, Jasper, Carlisle, Esme, Alice, and Rosalie all showed up an hour later. The guys started to load the boxes into the moving truck while the girls and I started to do the little stuff. It didn't take long seeing as we didn't have a lot of stuff to take with us. Edward and I both took out our keys and slid the key to the door off the rings we had them on. I looked at him smiling before we set both keys on the table. I grabbed his hand as we looked at our very empty apartment.
"On to our new life." Edward whispered.
"Yeah." I said.
We took one last look before we headed out the door.
…
We had been unloading and unpacking for hours, we were sitting on the kitchen floor having a picnic inside.
"This house is amazing Bella." Esme said.
"Thank you." I said.
"We should throw a house warming party!" Alice shrieked.
I groaned, "Alliiiccee!"
"No! Listen, it will be great! You can meet people in the neighborhood!" She said.
I looked at Edward.
"What are you looking at me for?!" He asked.
"She is your sister! Make her stop!" I laughed.
But it was too late, Alice was going full blown into planning this party.
A Few Hours Later
"Thanks guys! You all were awesome!" I said.
I shut the door and looked around our new home.
"Amazing isn't it?" Edward asked.
"Yeah." I said.
"I'm glad you found it love." He said.
"Me too." I agreed.
"Well, it's late. I guess we should get to bed." He said.
He grabbed my hand and we rushed upstairs laughing, we were enjoying the honeymoon phase quite a bit...
A Few Days Later
"Coming!" I called.
I ran across the living room to the front door, I opened it and gasped.
"Mom!" I almost screamed.
She smiled before we hugged.
"What are you doing here?!" I asked letting her in.
"I came to see my daughter!" She said.
"Oh mom!" I said pulling her into another hug.
…
"So, this is the hospital eh?" She asked.
"Yes." I said walking through the doors.
"Bella!" Jerry greeted.
"Hello Jerry, how is your day going?" I asked.
"I got puked on by some kid!" He told me.
"Gross." I said.
"Yeah, too much candy." He said.
"This is my mom Jerry, mom this is the receptionist Jerry!" I introduced the two.
"Nice to meet you." Renee said.
She held out her hand to shake, but Jerry came around the counter and hugged her.
"Oh!" She said shocked, but she hugged back.
"Jerry is a big teddy bear, kind of like Emmett." I said.
"I see that!" She said.
"Where is my hard working husband Jerry?" I asked.
"In to doctors lounge, he's having a bad day Bella." He said.
"Uh oh, I'll go see what's going on." I said.
I told Renee to follow as we walked in the lounge. Edward was sitting at the table looking at a chart, he was tugging on his hair with both hands. I walked over to him and started to rub his shoulders, he jumped before looking over his shoulder.
"Oh, hey." He said, he even sounded all stressed out.
"What's going on babe?" I asked massaging his shoulders.
"I cant figure out why this patient is dying! All the signs show heart failure, but I-I don't know! UGH!" He groaned tugging at his hair more.
"Have you asked Carlisle?" I asked.
"No, but I want to figure it out on my own." He said.
"Edward, you can ask for help every once in a while." I told him.
"I know." He sighed.
"I know babe, but even superman asks for help sometimes." I said kissing his head.
He stood up and kissed me on the lips.
"Renee?" He said.
"Hi Edward." She smiled.
"We can catch up when you get home, go save your patient." Renee said hugging him.
He left the room.
"You make a good wife Bella." She said.
"I try." I told her.
…
"Thanks for coming." I said to the last guest to leave.
The house warming party went great! There was so much food though!
"What are we going to do with all this food Edward?" I asked.
"Well, we keep some, and then we can send some home with Charlie." He told me.
"This is why I keep you around." I said patting his cheek.
He laughed before smacking my butt.
"Hey!" I gasped.
He smiled as I walked into the living room.
"Alice this was a great idea, thank you." I said.
"Your welcome, I knew you would like it." She said.
I rolled my eyes.
"Oh you knew that this was a good idea from the start!" She said.
"Fine Alice, you were right." I told her.
"The food some of the people brought was amazing!" She said.
"Yeah, it really was." I agreed.
In The Morning
I clutched the sides of the toilet as I threw up everything that I ate the night before. I gasped for air before round four came, I gagged before puking more.
"Love?" Edward said knocking on the door.
"Jus-Just a minute!" I gasped.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"Oh god!" I said before puking again.
He opened the door to find me crouching over the toilet, my forehead was covered in sweat as I gasped for air.
"Love!" He gasped.
"I don't feel so well." I gasped.
He brused the hair back from my face.
"I think its best you call off work today." He said.
"But-"
"No buts, you cant teach kids when you are puking in a toilet." He said.
I sighed.
"I'll call for you, can you walk?" He asked.
I nodded.
He helped me stand up and walk to the bed. He held the blanket up as I climbed on the bed and laid down, he tucked me in and kissed my forehead. He left the room to go call the school to tell them that I was too sick to come into work today.
He walked back in with a cup of ice cubes and a can of 7 UP.
"When do you work?" I asked.
"I don't." He said.
"What?" I asked.
"Nope, I have to take care of my sick wife." He told me.
"Edward go to work, I think its just food poisoning or something." I said.
"Sorry, I couldn't work knowing that you are here suffering." He said.
He climbed into the bed next to me and held me, until we had to make a dash for the bathroom for found six. It was going to be a long night...
…
It turns out it was food poisoning, Alice was also sick and we ate the same things. I was finally getting over mine, but for some reason she was still pretty sick. I needed to get better though, I need to get back to work or I am going to go crazy.
It had been an interesting few days, Charlie came over to visit with Renee, and they eneded up talking. All hard feelings were worked out, and now things were different. I couldn't tell you what was said because they talked in private, but now it was like they were best friends instead of those awkward conversations that they had.
Finally the sickness passed for both Alice and I, and we were able to return to work. The kids asked me how many more times I was going to leave them with a substitute. I told them the next time would be when I was having a baby probably, they liked the idea of me having a baby. Edward and I talked more about having children, but the thought was pushed a side when Edward did a week straight of long hours. I barley got to see him now that he spent most of the time at the hospital. We haven't had any phone calls or strange people looking through the window for a couple weeks now, and I hoped that it would stay that way forever!
Alright, next chapter should be longer!
