Chapter 20
I finally got let out of the hospital today. It was obvious the paparazzi found out what happened. I tried to ignore them and best as possible. We have secret service keep us hidden from the cameras. I felt like the president being in a box surrounded by security.
I was glad to be back in our little home. Everything look normal and exactly where I left things. I could feel Edward's eyes watching me carefully as I moved around. I sighed sitting on the couch slowly. Edward still standing by the door finally spoke.
"I'm going to cook something for you since you must be starving and tired of eating hospital food."
"Yes please!" I begged feeling my stomach growl. I laughed softly listening to it growl again. He remained silent and walked to the kitchen. His mood was much more serious coming to the house then it was at the hospital. All I heard from the kitchen was the sizzling sound of pan and food. I wonder what he could be making. Most things he burns. I walked to the kitchen and sat down at the counter.
"Whatcha makin'?"
"Eggs," He responded hast and serious handing me the plate of fried eggs. I took them and ate them cleaning the plate off in five seconds. I let the hot eggs burn down my throat. Felt nice having real food instead of that much gross stuff they serve you at the hospital. Edward just watched me scarf my food down like an animal. He pursed his lips together and started to clean the pan. I couldn't take the serious, silent treatment he was giving me!
I stopped his hands from grabbing my plate and made him look at me. "What's wrong?" I demanded.
"I have to clean your plate and you won't let me. That's what's wrong." I gave him a glare.
"Edward I'm serious, I hate seeing you like this."
"Like what?" He ignored me and grabbed the plate.
"You know what Edward, stopping acting different," He sighed and took my hands in his intertwining ours together.
"I know, I'm sorry, It's just things have changed now." I shook my head stopping him.
"Nothing has changed. I'm still me and you are still you. We need to move on. We can't harp on it or else we will be miserable." He kissed the top of my head.
"You're right, love." I smiled and kissed him deeply. He kissed me back softly. I could tell he was trying not the hurt my feelings when he pulled away shortly after. I felt a little hurt that he pulled away. But I can mostly see the hurt in his eyes. He couldn't make eye contact with me. I couldn't make anything to cheer him up. It should be the other way around. Everything just happened so fast he hasn't really hit me yet.
I tried to kiss him again longer this time, but he jerked his head back.
"Bella no." Damn it! He could read my mind. "The doctor said wait a week or two so your body goes back to normal."
"But-"
"No buts Bella, doctors orders." He stayed strict. I sighed at him. "Come on let's go watch a movie it's late." I had a feeling he was just trying to distract me and to keep a certain subject off my mind. I felt my eye lids heavy coming down over my eyes.
I saw the flashes of cameras blinding my eyes again. I held up my hand to block my face. In my other hand I held a small infant. The crowd was calling Edward and I's name. The crowd roared and cheered for us. I waved to everyone smiling, giving them what they wanted. I felt like I was glowing. I had everything I ever wanted. I saw Edward father frowning at us, and his mother shaking her head in disappointment.
Then little baby in my arms started to cry. We went inside the room I went to go put the little baby into its crib. Edward stood by my side the whole time looking down in the crib next to me. I gently laid the baby down. I smiled at how beautiful he was. My smile started to fade as I saw the baby wasn't moving. I turned to Edward calling his name. He didn't move either he just stood there. The glowing pinkish skin turned pale and felt cold as I touched it. The baby was still, not moving, not breathing.
I panicked and violently shook Edward. Edward! I screamed his name. He stood there starring at the baby like a statue. I started to cry picking up the dead infant and rocked it in my arms hoping he'd come back. Then all of a sudden I didn't feel him in my arms anymore. He was gone, my baby was gone! I turned to look at Edward. He was gone! I haven't even noticed the whole room was gone. Everything turned black. It was pitch black. I screamed at the top of my lunges. The angel in my arms was dead and gone.
"Bella! Bella!" Someone repeated my name over and over again. My eyes shot open. My whole body shaking, my face wet with tears, my eyes stinging from the tears. He was there. Edward was there. He wrapped his arms around me. I sobbed in his t-shirt leaving a stain. I felt everything just pour out. "Shhh" He tried to sooth me. He rubbed my back and stroke my hair. I noticed he wasn't sleeping with me.
"W-w-where were you?"
"I'm sorry love, I was watching T.V. then I heard you scream." I nodded shaking my head. My body was overwhelmed. I stopped crying after a few minutes.
"Don't leave Edward, Stay sleep with me."
"Of course." He got under the covers with me with his arms still wrapped around me.
"I laid down curling up against his chest. He hummed a very beautiful song. I closed my eyes relaxing listening to the beautiful melody. I fell back asleep dreaming of nothing but Edward and I in our happy place.
