{TWENTY}
A/N
The theme of this chapter is the song above. It's honestly one of my favorites and you should listen to it on repeat while reading this.
AURORA FROST
I woke up with a small groan as my eyes fluttered open. I looked around to see Edward sitting next to me looking down at the ground. I sat up slowly as panic rushed through me. My baby.
"H-How long was I out? W-What happened?" I spoke quickly while looking at Edward.
All he did was look down as I saw tears streaming down his face as they gently hit the floor.
"Edward! Answer me!" I choked out as my throat started to hurt and suddenly I felt hungry. Then, all of the sudden, I felt this weird feeling in my stomach...I felt as if I had to puke...
Quickly I got up and ran to the bathroom with small grunts in pain. But, before I could even get to the stairs Edward ran over to me faster than I could blink and held me close to him making the feeling worsen.
"S-Stop. S-Stop trying to kill yourself!" he choked out and I let out a small tear as I pushed him away and ran to the bathroom throwing up into the toilet.
Edward let out a small sigh as he held my hair back rubbing my back gently. Once I pulled away suddenly his lips crashed onto mine again as he pulled me close. And once again, I melted into it. God what was wrong with me...
Suddenly, he pulled away shaking his head.
"Goddamit. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Just, please. Don't hurt yourself anymore mi amore" his voice broke and I raised a brow not knowing what happened. All I remembered was telling Evan I was pregnant and everything went dark then I woke up here...
I let out a small breath as I looked down seeing the wraps on my wrists. Did I do that?
"W-Why do you keep trying to kill yourself Aurora?! Don't you s-see that I-I care about you?! I-I can't live w-without you! Please. I-I can't LIVE in a world w-without you" his voice broke even more as an even more confused look spread across my face. What happened...what happened...
"You're confusing her" another voice rang out. I recognized it as an Australian voice...
"S-She tried to kill herself. W-what more could there be?!" Edward spat and I quickly I looked up to see who it was and I couldn't believe my eyes...
"She didn't kill herself so cut her some slack and stop being a bloody wanker. She's confused and upset. After all, it has been a week" he snapped and finally, I found the words to say since I was still completely frozen.
"J-James?!"
EDWARD CULLEN
I sat there broken and confused about why she would try to kill herself! And all she was doing was denying the fact she was doing it and here the guy who's the name I just found out is James claims she didn't try to kill herself! Her wrists were split open and there was a knife in her stomach!
"How can she not have tried to kill herself?! She slit her wrists and stabbed herself in the abdomen!" I snapped and suddenly her eyes widened as tears streamed down her face and her arms snaked around her stomach sobbing violently.
"I-Is my baby okay?" she said in a panicked tone and suddenly I heard all her thoughts again...and what she was thinking, killed me...It was Evan's fault.
All of the sudden there was a knock at the door and I quickly opened it to reveal Carlisle who walked over gently picking her up bringing her to the main room.
I quickly followed as James did too and now all of us were gathered around the couch in the living room. A small look of fear in her eyes as James sighed.
"Everyone out" he spoke then looked at Aurora.
"Caramel, who do you want to stay here?" he spoke softly as he held her hand and I couldn't help but feel a little bit jealous. What if she left Evan but then moved on to James...I wanted Aurora all to myself...I needed her.
She lightly whispered something to him as he turned around to everyone.
"She only wants me and Carlisle" he spoke and I sighed softly as I ran off and went onto the roof. Just sitting there...God...what am I doing wrong...
AURORA FROST
I sat there watching as everyone left and it was only James and Carlisle. Once they were gone I held my arms out as James sighed and picked me up sitting me onto his lap as he held me.
"W-What happened. H-how is the baby" I whispered looking at Carlisle and immediately his face dropped.
"Your baby is dead. The knife stabbed her. Multiple times" he said softly but bluntly.
I felt my heart shatter as I buried my head into James's chest as I sobbed. Gently he rubbed my back as Carlisle sighed.
"And I know you didn't try to kill yourself. I'm guessing your boyfriend did it and tried to make it look like a suicide" he spoke softly and all I did was sob more. How could he do this to me? I loved him and he loved me!
Suddenly, before anyone else could say anything the door opened as I looked up seeing Edward walking back in. Once he saw me with James I saw his face fall. He turned back around as I ran over and hugged him tightly. That was when he suddenly started feeling extremely cold. I shivered slightly as then I realized that James was cold too.
I looked up at Edward as he gave me a sad look. He gently picked me up as I wrapped my arms around his neck and my legs around his waist. I continued to sob into his chest as he held me close to him. Lightly he played with my hair as he started to walk up the stairs.
"I'm going to take you to my room to rest. Okay?" he whispered softly and I nodded cuddling into him. He sighed softly as he brought me to his room which was really big. Basically as big as mine. Maybe even bigger.
Gently he laid me onto his bed as he kissed my head.
"Sleep well mi amore. You need it" he cooed and before he could move I grabbed his hand tightly as I shook slightly. He sighed and pulled his hand away.
"Stay. Please" I trembled and he nodded sitting down next to me. A sad smile on his face as I suddenly cuddled into his lap.
"This isn't the first time he hurt me...or the first time I lost a baby" I confessed and he looked down at me with a raised brow.
"What?" he said softly and I looked away with a small sob.
"Two years ago, before I came here...I got pregnant with Evan's kid...he killed her after he claimed she wasn't his...said I was a cheating bitch...he had one of his...friends come in and do so many terrible things to her and then me...then, he killed her. Took a gun and shot her...one in the heart and another in her head to make sure she was d-dead" I choked out.
"He then left a year later and I guess moved here. I forgave him as he said it was never going to happen again...he said that he was sorry and I spent months ignoring him when I gave in...and now, h-he did it a-again. I-I lost them...both of them" I sobbed into his lap and gently he rubbed my back not saying anything.
"Her name w-was Rose. When I was pregnant I k-knew she was going to be a girl...t-the one Evan k-killed today or last week...I had a feeling he was a boy...I was going to name him James you know" I spoke with a small breathy laugh.
"It's fucked up that he did that...all I've done was support him...then again, I guess I deserved it" I spoke with a small shrug.
And before I could say anything else he gently picked me up laying down next to me as he pulled me into him wrapping his arms around me. I lightly squirmed against him as I wasn't use to...this. Not even with Evan.
"Shhh ti amo, mi amore let me hold you" he whispered into my ear in a husky tone making me blush. I had no idea what he said but at this moment, everything felt right. It felt right and I never wanted this moment to end.
Slowly I melted into his embrace as I laid my head onto his chest cuddling into him as my leg wrapped around his torso subconsciously which made him smile softly.
"No one will ever hurt you again mi amore" he whispered into my ear again making me once again blush. "No one will ever hurt you because I'll never let you go mi amore. Ever"
