Paul POV :

A week later I woke up to find Bella not beside me. "Bella?"

"In here Paul." Bella called sounding a little panicky from the bathroom. I got up and went to the bathroom door and knocked slowly.

"Bella you okay in there?" I said my voice sounded scared even to me. I cursed myself for it because she didn't need to hear me scared when she was already panicky. I heard her throw up and I started shaking the door knob only to find she had locked it. "Bella! Open the door please." I begged shaking the door knob again and started debating whether or not just to smash the door open but I decided not to because I didn't know if she was sitting close to the door.

"No Paul, I'm fine why don't you just go downstairs and make some breakfast." I heard what sounded like her getting sick again.

"No Bella open the damn door." I said half yelling half alarmed.

I heard the little click and saw Bella sitting on the floor with sweaty hair sticking to her head. I immediately bent down to her level and put my hand on her head. She felt normal but she looked so tired. She had bags under eyes and her eyes were slightly blood shot."What's wrong Bella?" I asked.

"I don't know I was fine last night but this morning I woke up and well I felt like this." She waved her hand over herself trying to show how she looked.

"Did you eat anything bad?" I asked, we had the same thing last night but maybe she had gotten up for something else. God my worrying is turning me into a nut case.

Bella gave me a pointed look. "We ate the same thing Paul." She said before getting sick again. I pulled her hair back and rubbed soothing circles on her back.

"Bella," I said shaking my head. "Maybe I should call Carlisle."

Bella's looked at me and started shaking her head. "No Paul its fine, I'm fine." She said trying to stand up but got vertigo and collapsed into my chest. I wrapped my arms around her and helped her to the sink.

"That's it I'm calling Carlisle." I made sure she was steady before walking out and grabbing the portable phone on the bedside table.

"Paul don't-" Bella tried to stop me but got sick again in the toilet. I looked at raising my eyebrow. She huffed and glared at me.

I dialed the number quickly and waited patiently as it rung two times before getting picked up. "Hey Paul I'll go get Carlisle." I heard Alice's way to perky voice yell.

I chuckled and listened to the ruffling and static as the phone was passed to Carlisle. "Hello Paul how are you?" He asked kindly.

"I'm good but I called because Bella isn't feeling too well actually but she was fine last night." I going back to Bella and holding her hair back again.

"Hmm did she eat anything bad or something she might have an allergy too?" He asked.

"Bella do you have any allergies?" I asked cursing myself for not knowing.

"Only to raw bananas but you don't like bananas and I'm not stupid enough to eat them." She yelled the last part while glaring at me.

I swallowed. "That would be a no on both cases." I told him slightly nervous that Bella would hit me because she was still glaring at me. All of a sudden she burst into tears. I dropped the phone in shock and wrapped my arm around her shoulders my eyes staring wide eyed at her. "Bella what's wrong? Are you in pain?" I asked alarmed.

She shook her head. "No, I'm being a complete bitch to you because I'm sick, I'm sorry Paul." She wailed.

I breathed a sigh of relief that nothing serious was wrong. "Bella its fine." I said while picking the phone back up. I could hear Carlisle chuckling. "Sorry dropped the phone." I mumbled rubbing Bella's back while helping her stand back up.

"It's okayI heard, maybe I should come over to talk see how she is doing in person. Would that be okay?"

"No problem, come over whenever you can." I heard Bella throw up again when I walked out of the bathroom. "Maybe sooner would be better than later." I said before hanging up.

I went back to Bella and held her hair back. "Bella are you sure you don't know what could possibly be wrong?" I asked worry and concern filling my voice.

Bella shook her head. "I have no idea I just woke up and felt horrible. My head is killing me but I tried to take a pill but threw it up." I nodded and put my hand on her head trying to heat it up.

We sat like that for about half an hour talking about mindless things trying to get her attention away from being sick. I heard the doorbell ring and slowly settled back onto our bed before walking downstairs to answer the door and let Carlisle in. "Hey she's upstairs laying down." I said closing the door after him.

He nodded. "Well I shouldn't be that long you can come and stay with her if you want." He said while following me up to my room." I wasn't going to admit how relieved it made me to be able to stay with her. I opened the door and immediately went to Bella's side lifting her up so I could let her back rest against my chest. "Bella c'mon wake up I know you're tired but Carlisle is here and he needs you to answer his questions." I said kissing her head and rubbing her arm.

She opened her arms and smiled at Carlisle. "Hi, Carlisle," She mumbled before yawning.

"Hi Bella how are you feeling now? Any better than before?" She stuck out her tongue and made a thumbs down I laughed at her childish behavior.

"Any idea's what might be wrong?" I asked turning serious.

"Well it could be that the one wound she got from a few weeks back got a slight infection." He shrugged. "May I see them by the way just to make sure everything is healing properly?" He asked warmly.

"Sure," Bella nodded and sat up slightly lifting her shirt. I could see the gashes and I flinched a little. Even after so long I was still upset about it. She was still beautiful but it angered me that it happened in the first place.

Carlisle gently touched each one Bella whimpered with each one but yelped when he touched the bottom one; the one that just refused to heal fast like the others. Carlisle nodded. "Sorry about that Bella. It doesn't look like any are infected so-"

He was cut off by Maggie's frantic barking. Bella looked at me pleadingly. "Can you check on her?"

I nodded standing up. "Okay we'll talk later." I said giving her a kiss on the cheek.

I jogged outside to see Maggie barking and growling at Sam but she didn't know it was Sam because the idiot was in his wolf form. I rolled my eyes but they widened when I saw Maggie jumped forward and bit Sam's toe. Sam actually yelped and started barking and growling at Maggie. I quickly ran forward and grabbed Maggie pulling her bag away from the very angry wolf.

Maggie turned in my arms and licked my nose. I rolled my eyes and ruffled her fur behind her ear. "You really shouldn't do that to him, Maggie but you can do that all you want to Jarrod." I hadn't realized Sam had gone into the forest and phased back.

"What happened? Why is Carlisle here?" He asked slightly alarmed.

"Bella isn't feeling too well and I am probably overreacting but I just got worried when she said she felt horrible but her temp was the same." I said shrugging and glancing up at the window where Carlisle was looking after my princess.
