Before we get the chance to respond...

"Edward!" Bella cries from inside the house

Edward runs back inside with us right on his tail. We go into the dinning room to find Bella leaning heavily against the tabletop with her good hand. Edward quickly rushes to her side and wraps his arms around her waist supporting her weight.

"What is it love? Are you all right?" he asks her

"I was feeling lightheaded. I got up to move to the couch when I felt like I was going to fall. I managed to grab the table just in time otherwise I would be on the floor again", Bella whisperers weakly

"That's it love. I'm taking you up to my bed to rest. You have had a long day and you are still feeling the after effects of the shock", Edward says scoping her up

"Maybe I should look at her", I offer

"You have done enough", Edward says glaring at me before he runs up the stairs with Bella in his arms.

I sit down and put my face in my hands. Why didn't I stop this?

"Carlisle what's going on?" Alice asks me still shocked by what she just saw

"Bella is suffering from the after effects of shock. Of a massive shock. After what we all put her through this weekend has been too much on her", I say

"Is it serious?" Esme asks upset

"It could be. We're going to have to keep an eye on her. That is if Edward let's us anyway near her", I say

"We didn't mean to do this to her. We just wanted to make her laugh", Emmett says

"After this we should take all of Edward's warnings to heart", Rose says

"What's Edward feeling Jazz?" Alice asks

"Rage, Anger, love, protectiveness, a lot of protectiveness. I think if we try to go in Edward's room, Edward might just kill us", Jasper says

Earning him a growl in agreement by Edward.

We all sigh and start to talk quietly among ourselves after another hour we suddenly hear screaming.

"NO, NO PLEASE STOP", Bella screams

She must be dreaming about Edward leaving her again.

"PLEASE STOP I DON'T WANT TO PLAY ANYMORE", she screams

We all gasp and look at each other. She is dreaming about this past weekend.

"PLEASE EDWARD SAVE ME", Bella screams

Bella's screams quickly cut off as Edward manages to wake her. We can all hear we crying now and Edward trying to calm her. What have we done to her? I look at the others and they are wearing the same guilty looks I am. After half an hour Edward comes down the stairs with Bella in his arms.

"Bella wants to watch a movie", he says placing Bella gently on the couch covering her with a blanket.

"What movie?" Alice asks

"Romeo and Juliet", Edward replies

Alice quickly runs out of the room and gets the movie and is back within seconds.

"Do you want us to leave Bella?" Esme asks her

"No you can stay", Bella whisperers

We all take our seats and Alice starts the movie. Edward goes to sit with Bella and moves her into his arms gently. About an hour into the movie Bella starts to make grunts of pain. All our eyes turn to her.

"Do you need more pain medication love?" Edward asks her

"Please", Bella whimpers

"Carlisle can you please get the pain killers out of the bag by the door", Edward asks me

I quickly run to the door and find the bottle of prescription painkillers. I read the label these are pretty strong. I run back to Edward just as Esme passes him a glass of water. Edward quickly takes the bottle from me and takes out two of the little painkillers and then hands them to her.

"You'll feel better soon love", Edward says kissing her temple as she begins to whimper in pain again and she buries her face in his chest.

I turn around and look at the family's faces they all show the same thing, Guilt, sadness, pain, and regret.
