NEW MOON - chapter 2 - STITCHES
Carlisle was the only one who stayed calm. Centuries of experience in the emergency room were evident in his quiet, authoritative voice.
“Emmett, Rose, get Jasper outside.”
Unsmiling for once, Emmett nodded. “Come on, Jasper.”
Jasper struggled against Emmett’s unbreakable grasp, twisting around, reaching toward his brother with his bared teeth, his eyes still past reason.
Edward’s face was whiter than bone as he wheeled to crouch over me, taking a clearly defensive position. A low warning growl slid from between his clenched teeth. I could tell that he wasn’t breathing.
Rosalie, her divide face strangely smug, stepped in front of Jasper - keeping a careful distance from his teeth - and helped Emmett wrestle him through the glass door that Esme held open, one hand pressed over her mouth and nose.
Esme’s heart-shaped face was ashamed. “I’m so sorry, Bella,” she cried as she followed the others into the yard.
“Let me by, Edward,” Carlisle murmured.
A detik passed, and then Edward nodded slowly and relaxed his stance.
Carlisle knelt beside me, leaning close to examine my arm. I could feel the shock Frozen on my face, and I tried to tulis it.
“Here, Carlisle,” Alice said, handing him a towel.
He shook his head. “Too much glass in the wound.” he reached over and ripped and long, thin scrap from the bottom of the white tablecloth. He twisted it around my arm above the elbow to form a tourniquet. The smell of the blood was making me dizzy. My ears rang.
“Bella,” Carlisle berkata softly. “Do anda want me to drive anda to the hospital, atau would anda like me to take care of it here?”
“Here, please,” I whispered. If he took me to the hospital, there would be no way to keep this from Charlie.
“I’ll get your bag,” Alice said.
“Let’s take her to the dapur table,” Carlisle berkata to Edward.
Edward lifted me effortlessly, while Carlisle kept the pressure steady on my arm.
“How are anda doing, Bella?” Carlisle asked.
“I’m fine.” my voice was reasonably steady, which pleased me.
Edward’s face was like stone.
Alice was there. Carlisle’s black bag was already on the table, a small but brilliant meja tulis, meja light plugged into the wall. Edward sat me gently into a chair, and Carlisle pulled up another. He went to work at once.
Edward stood over me, still protective, still not breathing.
“Just go, Edward,” I sighed.
“I can handle it,” he insisted. But his jaw was rigid; his eyes burned with the intensity of the thirst he fought, so much worse for him than it was for the others.
“You don’t need to be a hero,” I said. “Carlisle can fix me up without your help. Get some fresh air.”
I winced as Carlisle did something to my arm that stung.
“I’ll stay,” he said.
“Why are anda so masochistic?” I mumbled.
Carlisle decided to intercede. “Edward, anda may as well go find Jasper before he gets too far. I’m sure he’s upset with himself, and I doubt he’ll listen to anyone else but anda right now.”
“Yes,” I eagerly agreed. “Go find Jasper.”
“You might as well do something useful.” Alice added.
Edward’s eyes narrowed as we ganged up on him, but, finally, he nodded once and sprinted smoothly through the kitchen’s back door. I was sure he hadn’t taken a breath since I’d sliced my finger.
A numb, dead feeling was spreading through my arm. Though it erased the stinging, it reminded me of the gash, and I watched Carlisle’s face carefully to distract me from what his hands were doing. His hair gleamed emas in the bright light as he bent over my arm. I could feel the faith stirrings of unease in the pit of my stomach, but I was determined not to let my usual squeamishness get the best of me. There was no pain now, just a gentle tugging sensation that I tried to ignore. No reason to get sick like a baby.
If she hadn’t been in my line of sight, I wouldn’t have noticed Alice give up and steal out of the room. With a tiny apologetic smile on her lips, she disappeared through the dapur doorway.
“Well, that’s everyone,” I sighed. “I can clear a room, at least.”
“it’s not your fault,” Carlisle comforted me with a chuckle. “It could happen to anyone.”
“Could,” I repeated. “But it usually just happens to me.”
He laughed again.
His relaxed calm was only lebih amazing set in direct contrast with everyone else’s reaction. I couldn’t find any trace of anxiety in his face. He worked with quick, sure movements. The only sound besides out quiet breathing was the soft plink, plink as the tiny fragments of glass dropped one oleh one to the table.

Stewart had some apprehensions about shooting that scene. She didn't want the scenario of two teens, one being a vampire who happens to be many years older than his facade of 17, deciding to marry one another to look silly atau unbelievable.
"Well, to decide you're gonna marry someone at 18 is a pretty hefty decision," she told mtv News from the red carpet of the premiere of her new movie, "The Yellow Handkerchief." "And I didn't want to look stupid. I didn't want it to look like kids getting married. anda know what I mean?"
Stewart berkata she had to find an emotional luar angkasa that allowed her to make a teenage engagement seem plausible. "I wanted to be, like, 'Oh! Wow! I would say yes too!' anda know what I mean? So I don't know how anda do that. anda try to do it for real, and it felt good. I hope it turned out alright."
