“Can you, uh…” I glanced back at Rosalie, who was gazing at Bella with a solemn expression on her face. “Can you get me a bowl of warm water, please? And a cloth.”
Rosalie nodded, then hurried from the room without questioning my request. While I waited for her to return, I slowly made my way over to Bella’s bed, grateful somebody had had the foresight to place a chair beside it so I could be close to her. I sat right on the edge of the seat, gingerly covering her cool hand with mine.
“I’m here, baby,” I told her, even though she couldn’t hear me. “You’re safe now. I love you.”
GAH ! ! ! ! ! It is hard to articulate what I am feeling. Blood is pumping hard...breathing is more labored. Goosebumps on my body.
