End of Chapter 54
“Bella.” He sinabi as he kissed my forehead. “My love, are you alright?” He asked as his hands slid up my arms and down my sides watching my face as he tried to find where I was hurt.
“I am better now. Edward, I missed you.” I sinabi as I snuggled into his chest.
“I pag-ibig you.” He sinabi softly.
“I pag-ibig you,” I sinabi as I felt myself falling asleep again. “Edward, are they giving me something to sleep?” I wondered as I yawned.
“Do you want me to look?” He asked as he started to slide out of the bed, my arms wrapping tighter around him, letting him know that I didn’t want to know that bad.
“Maybe later.” I sinabi as I closed my eyes and listened to his steady breath.
I heard him laugh quietly as he settled back into the bed. “Bella, I will not leave you. You won’t be in this room alone, sleep my love…I will protect you.”
“I know, thank you.” I said, my words coming out as mush as I tried to stay awake….not winning the battle against my sleep…wishing I was strong, strong as Edward…strong enough that NO ONE would ever take me away from him again.
Chapter 58
I tried to battle my sleep, to keep it away so that I could spend time with Edward, but in the end I couldn't fight it. I lay my head against his chest, the cool feeling comforting against my cheek. I knew that his arms were wrapped around me, that he was protecting me but he could not protect me from my dreams.
I tried to lead my dreams to happy things like our reunion, or the time that we would get to spend together...but as soon as the sleep took over I dreamt that I was alone.
I was alone in the woods, I could hear things moving in the woods behind me, and no matter how hard I tried to run I kept falling. Each time I fell I felt myself getting hurt, my arms scratching against a tree...or my knees skinning as I fell onto the rocks. I knew I had to keep going, that I couldn't stop in fear of whomever was chasing me.
After falling hard onto my knees, which cut them open..the blood flowing down my knees, soaking my jeans. I heard voices, people yelling my name or for me to stop. I didn't want them to find me, I knew that if they did they would take me away from Edward and the rest of the Cullens. I tried to stand, my knees giving out as I tried to move. The ground rose up to quickly as I fell, my face landing hard against the stones, knocking the breath from my lungs. I knew this was it, they were going to catch me. Tears streamed down my face as I tried to look up at the faces that came into view. The only one I recognized was Gabriel's, his eyes wide as he looked up and down at the amount of blood that covered my body.
"Gabriel," I whispered. "Help me, please. Protect me."
His eyes looked at my face, as if he didn't recognize me. He watched me closely as he leaned down and got to my level, a finger reaching out to trace the blood that ran down my arm.
"Gabriel, no." I whimpered. "Gabriel, you were my protector...please remember."
He looked to my face again, his finger that was now covered in my blood raising up to his mouth. I reached out, slapping the hand away from his mouth. I didn't want him to taste my blood that would be the worst thing that could happen, I would have no chance if this happened.
"Bella. Bella? Love?" A new voice called to me.
I knew that voice, but my fear was so real. I couldn't let Gabriel taste my blood, I had to stop that from happening. I reached out, to slap Gabriel's hand away but found that his hand was further away as if he had moved quickly away from me...his hand nagyelo in the position he was in, hand half raised.
"Bella, Bella!" The voice called. "Love, you have to wake up. Come back to me." Edward's voice called, his tone sad and worried.
Even in my dream state I had to listen to him, I didn't want him to be sad or hurt. I tried to find my way back to him, to get away from my dreams, to hold on to reality.
I opened my eyes as I blinked a few times, his face slowly coming back into focus. I noticed that the kama was wet, I knew that I was covered in sweat. I looked at him, embarresed that my dream had scared me to the point that I was having cold sweats while he was holding me. I looked up at his face, concern and fear obvious on his face.
"Edward." I sinabi softly as I looked up at him.
"Bella, you're alright love." He sinabi as he kissed my forehead.
"Oh Edward." I said, tears running down my face. The dream had been so real, I wasn't sure that this wasn't the dream.
He held me tightly to his chest, the cool of his body wrapping around me like a sheet. I tried to calm myself to relax and breath as I thought about silly I was being.
"Bella, it was just a dream." He sinabi softly.
"It was so real."
"What was your dream?" He asked as he kissed my cheek.
"Gabriel, the man that was holding me." I sinabi as I looked up at him and saw something tumawid his face. I was about to ask what was going on when he smiled and looked at me as he waited for the rest of the dream.
"He was suppose to be my protector, and I was running. Trying to get away, but....well I fell. I cut my arms and legs badly, they were bleeding and he caught me." I said, afraid to go on. "He wiped a finger across my wounds, he was going to taste the blood." I sinabi into his chest, the sound so quiet that I knew he leaned down to hear better.
"Oh Bella." He sinabi as he squeezed me softly. "No one will ever hurt you again."
"I know." I sinabi as I looked over and saw the door open slightly, Carlisle's face peering in the door.
"Bella, you're awake." He sinabi as he started to walk in. "Do you want a visitor or...well or 4?"
"No." Edward sinabi as he glared at Carlisle.
I looked up at him, doing my best to ipakita him my grumpy face. "Yes, send them in." I sinabi as I smiled at Carlisle.
A segundo later the door opened again as Alice, Emmett, and Esme walked in the door. All of their faces lighting up as they smiled at me. Alice moved the fastest, moving up to hug me gently.
"Bella." She sinabi as she hugged me. "I don't want to be rude, but...you need a shower." She sinabi as she laughed.
"Alice." Edward groaned.
"No...she's right. I am sorry, but I do need a shower." I sinabi as I sat up a little, with Edward's assistance.
"Are you sure you should do this?" He asked as he helped me to the edge of the bed.
I turned and smiled at him as I leaned in and kissed his surprised mouth. I meant it to be a quick sweet kiss, but before I knew it...like always I got carried away. Edward laughed as he kissed me before pulling away, a smile streatched across his entire face.
I laughed as I turned and threw my legs over the side of the bed, standing up slowly as Edward put a hand on my back just in case. I went to take a step and realized that I wasn't steady. I felt myself falling as Emmett's arms caught me, his entire body laughing as he carried me like a doll.
"Hey, put me down." I sinabi as I smiled up at him.
"I will put you down in the shower." He sinabi as he smiled.
"Oh no!! Not you!!" I sinabi as I started to freak out.
"Calm down Bella, he's just helping you into the shower. I will help you if you need it." Esme sinabi as she followed us into the bathroom.
A few minutos later, Esme was carrying me out of the bathroom as I laughed at the fact that she was barely taller then me but carried me like I was a newborn.
Edward..or Carlisle had remade the kama while I was showering, and someone had managed to fill every open spot with fresh flowers. I smiled as Edward walked over and took me from Esme, transfering me into his arms. I snuggled my head into his neck, halik it a few times as he carried me back to the bed.
"No, please. I would rather sit then lay down." I said.
"Ok." Edward sinabi as he set me in the chair softly, the chair barely moving as I settled into it.
"So, what's been going on?" I asked as I looked at everyone. "Where's Jasper and Rosalie?"
"Jasper stayed back at the hotel, he doesn't like to go places where human blood is everywhere." Alice sinabi as she smiled.
"Oh, that makes sense." I sinabi as I realized that she was right, it did make sense for him to avoid hospitals.
"Rosalie...well, she is cleaning up and...I think her and Jazz were going hunting." Emmett said, something about the way he looked at everyone but me let me know that there was something else going on.
"Ok, well what else has been going on? Did you find out anything about Gabriel or the others that were keeping me away from you?" I asked as everyone turned and looked at Edward, no one saying a word...which meant that there was something that they were keeping from me...and that would NEVER do. I would find out the truth, and soon..seeing as how I knew that we couldn't stay here long, that I had to get back tahanan to Charlie and the rest of my normal everyday life.
