[A/N Most of you thought CPOV was a nice idea so, Carlisle it is! I still need to practice writing his POV, I'm sorry if he seems way different than Stephanie made him! Enjoy!]

Chapter 3 - Sleeping beauty

Carlisle POV

Rachel was in a horrible state and I wasn't even sure yet whether she would make it, but her parents weren't home. Her friends were waiting in the waiting-lobby except for one, Melody. I had never seen her in Forks before and I didn't have any files of her, so I assumed she was new here. Why I was looking for her files? Well, she seems very unordinary. Not in a bad way, no, she is very beautiful and kind, but something has been bothering me all this time. I can't hear her heart, nor her blood, but she isn't a vampire. Were there supernatural things we, my family, had never heard of? That was possible but.. she had everything a vampire had except for red or gold eyes. And she slept, but that could be fake. I was extremely fascinated by this creature but for now I just assumed she was human.

I finished cleaning Rachel's wounds and bandaging them, and did all for her I could. I walked towards the bed Melody was sleeping in, I really couldn't help it, I was pulled by a force I'd never felt before. She was smiling in her sleep and snoring very quietly. The blanket was under her shoulder so I pulled it up to her neck: She mustn't get cold. Looking at her smiling face while she slept made me happy, she looked so peaceful. Again, I couldn't restrain myself, which made me extremely embarrassed, as I shove a strand of hair behind her ear. Her smile grew wider at my touch and Oh My..

She grabbed my hand. I chuckled lightly and sat beside her. Her skin felt warm against mine, but I was sure her skin was cold for a human, if she was one which I started to doubt more and more. Eventually, after watching her sleep, I laid down beside her. I didn't know what was happening to me or why I did it.. I just did it. I remembered feeling like this before only one time, and I remembered it clearly: It was when I was with Esme. I shook my head. No Carlisle, you don't know her, you don't want her you love Esme. I couldn't tell whether I was lying to myself or not.

"Dr. Cullen, hold me please! I'm afraid something might happen to Rachellll...." Melody half murmured, half whispered. She was talking in her sleep? Even though it was wrong I did as she said and wrapped my arms securely around her, and she snuggled into my chest. Wait, Carlisle..

WHAT WAS I DOING?

But I really, really didn't want to move. She felt perfect, warm and beautiful while she lay in my arms. But then.. the door opened.

"Carlisle?!" I heard Edward shout. I looked up. "Oh my god Carlisle what were you thinking?" He sounded angry.

"Shhh," I whispered, while putting my finger against my pursed lips, "she's sleeping." But Edward wasn't planning on calming down soon.

"And why are you holding her?"

"Because she asked me to." I said truthfully. Edward made a face and sat down.

"Geez Carlisle, she is a human! A 17 years old human in case you've forgotten!" He jumped of his chair and threw it against the wall. The chair broke into a million pieces and left a scar on the wall. I felt Melody move in my arms.

"Is it time for school already?" She murmured against my chest. I shot Edward an angry look and signalled for him to leave. Darn, that was embarrassing. Melody slowly raised her head and looked at me, shocked.

"Oh my god, dr. Cullen! What are you doing!" she screamed, rolling off of the bed with a thud. I jumped off, embarrassed.

"Well, you asked me to hold you and.." I said, running a hand trough my hair nervously.

"I did?" She asked, also embarrassed. She looked at her feet. "I talk in my sleep.." she admitted, looking up apologetically. She turned to look at Rachel, who was in an uneasy sleep. "How is she?"

"In a very bad state. She might not make it." I answered. I felt really bad for this girl and Rachel's family and friends. "You might want to get some sleep, after all my son woke you up only after half an hour of sleep."

"Oh god! I hadn't noticed the chair!" her voice sounded more squeaky with every word. "Did your son do that? He must be so strong!" She stared at the pieces of wood with huge eyes. "I don't want to sleep, I want to stay with Rachel. I'm so afraid dr. Cullen.." She said, her eyes filled with tears. Her blue, beautiful eyes actually.. I was afraid myself too, because I was afraid to get too carried away.

"Dr. Cullen, can you hold me again while I sleep?" She asked nervously. If I could, I would've blushed. But instead of showing how nervous I was, I gave her my fatherly smile and nodded. It might sound easy to just give her my "fatherly smile", but it wasn't, I had a serious crush on this girl, and felt horrible about it.

"Call me Carlisle." I said, and walked to the bed to lay beside her. She made herself comfortable in my arms and fell asleep pretty fast. Considering it was 2 am, this was pretty normal. I smelt her dirty blonde hair and inhaled her beautiful scent. I didn't smell any blood except for Rachel's, whose blood she was covered in. I ran my hand trough her hair multiple times. I moved my hand over her back. I pressed my lips on her forehead. I did anything I could to touch her, to feel her. I knew I shouldn't, but it was as if I'd lost all the self-control I had built up over the years, as if it was gone. It was frustrating how much I wanted to learn more about this girl, but how I knew I couldn't. Eventually, my hands stopped their little adventure and I closed my eyes, as if I was sleeping. It was relaxing to lay next to the perfect creature who'd wanted me to hold her, while listening to her breathing.

Eventually, I had to let go to check on Rachel.

And she...
