I reached out for his hand but he quickly moved out of reach. His eyes dark and unfocused as he took another step away from me.
“Edward?” I a dit confused. He continued walking backwards, getting farther away with each step. Slowly fading into the shadows. “Edward?!” I yelled after him, slowly walking forward. It seemed for every step I took, he took 5 steps farther. “Where are toi going?!” I yelled after him, walking faster.
“Away from you.” He a dit harshly, staring me down as he stopped walking, holding his place he crossed his arms.
“What do toi mean? Away from me?” I asked approaching him.
“Bella, if toi don't want to be with me then I completely understand.” He said, taking another step back as I got closer. “Don't play games with my head, with my heart.”
“What?” I mouthed, confused.
“Can toi imagine how I felt when toi a dit toi wanted to leave me. When toi made another choice.”
“Edward...” I started
“No, Bella, if toi really don't want me thats fine, but toi can't keep changing your mind, you've done this to yourself, and I'm not sure I can forgive you.” He said, his eyes staring me down.
“What are toi saying?” I cried out, clutching my hand to my chest, afraid my cœur, coeur would fail at any minute.
“I'm saying that we can't go back, whats done is done, and I can't forgive you, I can't be with someone who doesn't want to be with me.”
“I do! I do want to be with you.” I shouted desperately. “Edward, I'm so sorry.” i cried out, tears streaming down my cheeks.
“Me too.” He a dit harshly as he turned to leave.
“Edward.” I yelled after him, as I started running, my feet echoing off the pavement. I watched as he got farther and farther away until he disappeared into the night. “Edward!” I shouted again, my eyes searching the darkness for him. Realizing how alone I was I sunk to the cold ground, hugging my knees to my chest as I continued to sob uncontrollably. Forcing my eyes shut, an attempt to stop the tears. I heard footsteps approach and glanced up. I pulled my damp hair out of my eyes, focusing on the person at my feet. Dressed in a long black peignoir, robe with a capuche, hotte that shadowed their face. The hooded person reached a hand out to me. I rubbed the remaining tears out of my eyes as I reached out to take the hand extended to me. They wrapped their cold fingers around my hand, pulling me off the ground, As I got closer their face came into focus, Crimson eyes stared into my own, I could hear growling coming from deep inside. My eyes shut with panic as I struggled out of the cold grip. She tightened her grip around my hand, leaning in.
“Edward!” I screamed, feeling cool hands déplacer from my face to my chest, and back to my face.
“Bella!” My eyes flew open to see Edward par my side, his face full of concern. “You're alright.” He soothed, bringing my head against his chest as he wrapped his arms around me, holding me close.
“Breathe Bella.” He encouraged as I lay there gasping for air. As my breathing slowed down I looked around the room , noticing we were in his bedroom, he must have carried me to lit at some point during the night.
“Wanna tall me what that was about?” He asked, muffled, his face in my hair. I closed my eyes thinking back to the nightmare, the crimson eyes, Edward disappearing into the dark.
“Not really..” I said, turning to my side.
“Bella, toi were screaming my name, you're drenched in a cold sweat, and toi can barely breathe, please tell me.” He a dit as he pulled me back to face him.
“I'm sorry.” I whispered. Unable to look him in the eye.
“For what?” He asked, moving the hair that had fallen into my face.
“For making toi doubt that I loved you.” I whispered, leaning against his chest.
“I never once doubted it.” He said, soothingly.
“You don't hate me?” I asked, finally glancing up at his face.
“Bella.” He said, placing a Kiss on my forehead. “I could never hate you, where is this coming from?” He asked.
“I had a dream that toi left.” I sighed. “I hurt toi so much and toi a dit that I did this to myself, that things would never go be the same, that toi would never forgive me.” I gasped for air, tears building up. “And then toi left and I couldn't find you, and Vic..she was there.” Tears overflowing, spilling down my cheeks. “She helped me stand up, and then I saw who it was and she wouldn't let go, and I couldn't find you, I couldn't find you!.” I sobbed into his chest. I felt his strong arms emballage, wrap tighter around me.
“Bella shhh.” He whispered, rubbing my back. “It was just a dream. I'm not going anywhere without you.”
“You l’amour me.?” I asked hesitantly, blinking through the tears.
“Of course I do, forever.” He sighed as I relaxed in his grip.
“I'm sorry.” I whispered again.
“It's alright.” He whispered back
I pulled out of his arms, laying back down on the pillow, noticing how damp it was.
“Like I said, drenched with sweat.” He said, smiling at me.
“Gross.” I mumbled as I pulled the blankets off of me. “I'm gonna go shower.” I a dit slowly. He reached out and grabbed my wrist, pulling me back towards him.
“I l’amour you.” He said, as he wiped a tear from my cheek. I smiled weakly as I headed off to the bathroom.
When I came back in the room I noticed Edward had not only made the bed, but had put all new sheets on. He was laying on his stomach sprawled across the lit lire a book. He glanced up when I entered, closing his book and patted the lit beside him for me to join. I hung up my towel and slid onto the lit beside him on my stomach.
“Everything alright?” He asked, noticing the concern that was plastered all over my face.
“Depends.. I noticed Alice wasn't in the living room anymore...” I said, searching his face to see if he already knew that.
“She's with Carlisle.” He said, moving his hand around my waist, pulling me closer. “Mmm” He said, as he pulled my face closer to his, breathing in.
“Is she alright?” I asked, but I was interrupted par a knock at the door.
“Hey Edward, It's you're turn.” Emmett a dit as opened the door slightly poking his head in before closing it again.
“Your turn?” I asked confused.
“Yeah...Come on, I'll explain” He a dit as he pulled himself off the bed, grabbing my hand and pulled me up with him. We walked down the hallway to a room I never really went in before. The door had always been closed, and Edward missed it during the tour I'm guessing.
We walked in what looked like some sort of hospital room, there was machines beeping, and awful bright lighting. I glanced around to find Alice laying on the lit in the middle of the room, dressed in what looked like a hospital gown. I'm guessing it wasn't some designer name, and wondered if that would have bothered her. I slowly walked over to Alice's body, noticing wires and tubes everywhere. “Oh Alice.” I cried out softly, reaching out to take her hand in mine. Alice has never stayed still for so long.
“Ready Edward?” I heard Carlisle say, turning to face them. Edward pulled a chair up beside Alice's lit and pulled his sleeves up.
“What are toi doing?” I asked, confused and worried at the same time, still holding Alice's hand.
“We're doing a sort of transfusion.” Carlisle a dit as he wiped down Edwards arm and pulled out a needle. I immediately felt my stomach drop. “In a humans case, there is such thing as a blood transfusion, but with us, we would need venom.” He explained as he slowly inserted the needle into Edwards arm. “Now, it's not like we have a blood bank for this kind of thing, so we have to use our own resources. Alice's health is slowly disintegrating, so everyone has been taking turns, transferring their venom into her 'blood stream'. It's helping, for now.” I watched as the clear liquid moved from Edwards arm through the tangle of cords around Alice. I closed my eyes, feeling slightly nauseous. I took deep breaths in through my nose, trying to calm myself down. I glanced back to Alice, squeezing her hand.
“Alice...” I whispered.
“She can hear you.” Edward said, looking up at me.
“Alice.” I a dit again, plus loudly. “You have to wake up.” I a dit trembling. “I promise toi can buy me all the clothes toi want.” Tears forming.
“Careful now, I a dit she can hear you.” Edward laughed to himself. “She's going to hold toi to it.
“I don't care, I just want her back.” I shrugged to myself as I laid my head down on the lit beside her.
“That should do it.” Carlisle a dit as he removed the line from Edwards arm, wiping it down to remove the venom that made its way onto his skin. “Take it easy for a while okay?” Carlisle advised as Edward grabbed my hand.
“You hungry?” He asked, wrapping his arms around my waist. I glanced back to Alice, giving her hand one plus squeeze as I stood up and walked out of the room with him.
“No.” I mumbled. “More nauseous than anything. “I need to lay down.” I a dit holding on to Edward as I felt the blood rushing to my head.
“Right. Needles. I'm sorry” He apologized as he led me to the bed.
“I'll be fine.” I mumbled, closing my eyes tight as I slowly rocked back and forth, trying to distract myself. I felt Edward lay down beside me and turned to face him.
“You alright?” I asked, as he closed his eyes tightly.
“I'll be fine, the transfusion can be hard on you, the venom has to replenish, it takes some time.” He said, pressing the bridge of his nose between his thumb and forefinger.
I moved across the lit closer to him and wrapped my arm across his chest, hoping to bring him comfort for once after countless times he came to save me. His body went stiff as he lay there, not moving, not bothering to breathe. I figured this was part of the process, so I just lay there with him, watching him as I rubbed my hand across his chest.
“Edward?” I a dit confused. He continued walking backwards, getting farther away with each step. Slowly fading into the shadows. “Edward?!” I yelled after him, slowly walking forward. It seemed for every step I took, he took 5 steps farther. “Where are toi going?!” I yelled after him, walking faster.
