treasure hunters finally becoming who we are

chapter 36

       Edward pov

It was the next day and Bella was still sleeping peacefully and I was going to let her too.

I just kept driving. I don't like sleeping much anymore to tell you the truth because that's when the thing gets in my head the most.

I almost lost her completely. No I didn't stop loving her. I just couldn't get over the fact how she distance herself like that from me after what happened to her.

She completely pulled away from me. It felt like I still couldn't fully trust at all when I should of and I should of just let her fully in.

I know I keep fucking up with her and I need to fucking quit. I will now.

Now we find out there is a fucking little kid out here somewhere.

God I hope it's not Becca. But that guy said he. Then Bella started waking up.

"Hey baby!" She rolled over on her back just waking up not saying a word.

"You never went back to sleep babe!" She told me. "Nope! Don't like sleeping much if you don't notice! That's when that thing seems to get a hold of me the most!" I told her.

"Oh!" She told me. "But I don't mind your wake up calls though when it shows up though." She busted out laughing and so did I.

"I knew you would babe!" She took my hand into hers and for some reason I felt instantly relaxed now.

She picked up my hand and looked at it for a minute and then shrugged her shoulders and sat it back down still holding it.

She must of felt it too. We finally stopped and I started coffee first and we used the bathroom and it started cooking and I started to feel off for some damn reason.

I noticed Bella was feeling the same fucking way too.  I leaned over on the tail gate trying to catch myself.

"EDWARD!" Bella come over to me and put her hand on my arm and I started to feel better and I noticed she did to.

The both of us looked at each other confused by this and she let go and started walking away backwards and I knew she was testing out something to figure something out.

But then she collapsed on the ground and I went over to her and slid my hand underneath her shirt and she sighed in relief and so did I.

In fact I completely fell on top of her. We both black out right there on the ground.

I finally lifted my head and shook it and looked down and Bella was still out.

I looked around and it was dark outside now. "What the fuck is going on?" I asked myself.

I sat up and took my hand away from Bella and I got up and scooped Bella up took her over to the jeep and laid her down and put everything away.

Then it started happening again. I climbed into the jeep and locked everything up and picked up Bella and held her close to me and slid my hand underneath her shirt and I felt better but I fell back asleep.

My eyes snapped opened when I sensed that thing. I was going to fight to stay awake this time and I held Bella closer to me.

I slid my other hand underneath her shirt like she was the only thing anchoring me and keeping me from going from whatever hold he had on me right now.

Ever since she marked her territory the way she did on me with this thing last night.

Everything different now. "I can feel you fighting babe!" She whispered to me and all I did was nod my head because that was all I could do just fighting against this fucking thing.
