" How are you feeling, Stella? Any headaches? Fatigue? Nausea? " Doctor Cullen asks as he makes his way to me.
Dismissing the nurse beside me as he checks the papers, avoiding my gaze. I swallowed the lump in my throat and looked down at my hands
" I'm alright. I'm feeling well now " I simply replied
" Good, will you look up to me, please " He continues.
I did what I said and our eyes met, my heart skipped a beat as he raised his hand, feeling his cold fingers touch my chin. He didn't look away this time.
He flashed the small flashlight into my eyes causing me to blink a few times, and when it was done, he let go, Clearing his throat
" Well chief, Stella is alright. Just signs of stress and exhaustion, I suggest she take a few days rest " Doctor Cullen says and glances at me as Dad nods.
I don't know why, and even how much I try. I just can't take my eyes off him
When he was checking on Tyler, I only looked my gaze away when Dad came to my side.
" Doctor Cullen said you and Bella can go home, do you need a wheelchair kiddo? " He asks and places the back of his hand on my forehead, making me chuckle
"Dad I don't need a wheelchair! I'm okay, see " I said.
And pull off the blanket from my legs, as I balance my weight into the ground. Luckily I didn't feel dizzy anymore
" then why are you so quiet? Hm? " he asks
raising his one eyebrow at me as I stole a glance from the doctor across me. Seeing him staring at me already, Doctor Cullen immediately looked away.
I felt my cheeks turned pink and hide it from dad
" I was just-! In shock! " I protested
and shrugged my shoulder as Dad only chuckled and placed his hand on my head, shrugging my hair caused me to roll my eyes at him.
" come on then, let's take you and your sister home so you can rest, " He says. When me and Bella got out of the room
Dad was carrying our backpacks as she looked down at her phone and saw some missed calls from mom
" you told her? " she asks and looks up to Dad who shrugs his shoulder as well, I chuckled at him
" she's probably worried right now," Bella says and excuses herself on the corner to take a call. I took a deep breath as Dad began signing papers on the desk
" Hi Stella! "
Then to my surprise
Alice and Rosalie came, and without a second, Alice wrapped her arms around me and pulled me into an embrace. Surprisingly Rosalie smiled at us
" I'm so glad you're okay, we saw what happened earlier. We were worried about you! " Alice began and pulled away.
Suddenly it caused me to remember now quick Edward come to Bella's side
How does his hand create a shallow depth on Tyler's car, how does he have so much strength and speed? I asked myself
" Don't worry Stella, I got our homework in biology covered up " Rosalie adds, as I shook my head at her
" no, I can help. I'm fine! " I said as the two Cullen girls shared a look
"Are you sure? " she continues making me take a deep breath
" of course " I replied and Alice smiled, not letting my arm go.
"Alright then, I'll pick you up later tonight," Rosalie says
I smile at her and nod. When Dad came, the girls said goodbye as I waved my hands at them.
He told me that we were gonna go home but I looked for Bella
Seeing her glaring at Edward who's standing close in front of her in the corner of the room. I smirked and cleared my throat, causing the two of them to look at me
" Bella, we're gonna go home now," I said and secretly sent her a wink which she ignored and looked one last time at Edward. I watched as my sister walked away, and I was gonna follow her until
" wait," Edward said and grabbed my wrist
causing me to face him. Noticing that his eyes were no longer the golden yellow I knew, but now it's black.
Are they wearing eye contact lenses?
" what are you? " He asks
his tone is serious which makes my heart drop. I furrowed my eyebrow and snitch my hand back from his touch
" I don't know what you're talking about, " I said
my voice almost turning into a hiss as Edward furrowed his eyebrow, he was silent for a few seconds and staring at me. Until my head began to pound again
Was he the one who was causing this headache?
" you know what I'm talking about Stella, I'm trying to help you- "
" help? I don't know if I even need help, Edward, I didn't know what happened, it was unexpected! I-I don't know what it is " I said and cut him off.
He didn't say another word as I took a deep breath and turned around, walking away to exit the hospital
I sat on the passenger seat while Dad was organizing papers on his seat, I looked down and saw printed faces of people on the pages, and my curiosity grew
" animal attack? " I asked quietly when reading one of the files.
Dad shoves it inside a folder and sighs, finally sitting on the seat.
" I gotta head down to Mason County, a security guard at Grisham Mill was killed by some sort of animal " he replies and begins driving.
" be careful Dad," I said, making him send me a small smile.
I look outside through the window and watch the same dark trees cross by, the town is so gloomy and cloudy that the sun really can't shine in any spot.
Then my mind trails to Doctor Cullen again. Making me bite my lip as I shook those thoughts off my mind.
***************
When I came back to my room I felt comfortable and at peace inside. I took off Dad's jacket from my shoulders and placed it down on the couch
Since Rosalie was my partner in the research we had to finish Biology by Thursday, and I wanted to go and help her. Knowing it's gonna be a long work I didn't want her to finish it all.
I took a deep breath and looked at my reflection in the mirror.
Nothing changed and I was still the same, after a few minutes, I looked down at my hands. Seeing the bottom begin to grow black, it was unusual
I furrowed my eyebrow and opened my hands to see it all over my nails, I rushed down to the bathroom and opened the sink.
Washing my hands with the water but it wasn't going away
