PAIN IS A BURDEN (cullens/open)

[GINNY CULLEN]

"I'll get you fixed up." She said. Blank. Her head hit on something. Blank.

Ginny saw black. What? Wasn't she just at the art store she worked with? Or was she dreaming she was? She had been in her little office a lot lately, so it wouldn't surprise her if she was dreaming about it. She didn't want to open her eyes just yet though; she wasn't sure what she would open them too, "My head hurts." She thought trying to readjust her laying position. "Ah." She muttered very lightly. That didn't work very well. A pain shoot through her body, but most of it seemed to be pressure which confused her even more.

A little flashback showed her working with someone, a vampire. Then hitting her head but nothing more at his work place. Then she was drinking something? Water in a white room. She could recalled the taste of it. Giving up on thinking she just rested her head. She could hear faint voices not far from her, but they didn't seem to be talking to or about Ginny, so she quit trying to listen. With a sigh, she felt where she was laying. A bed, that wasn't so bad on the comfort, was under her, and a soft pillow under her head. "You're smarter than this, come on. I'm in pain that's mostly pressure which means I've had something for pain? And I'm in a bed...So I could be at the hospital. Wonderful. What happened though?" Ginnys thoughts made her feel sad. She didn't want to be in hospital or have any injury. Maybe she was being a little to active-minded, but that didn't seem like her.

With a sigh, she stopped thinking completely; it wasn't helping her any. Ginny licked her lower lip and let her eyes flutter open. Just as she thought, the hospital. She could see the familiar pattern of the rooms they had, but her vision was really blurry and slow focusing. There was two questions running through her mind, where was Carlisle and what happened?

((A vampire that killed her father attacked her. The "fight" was interrupted by her boss who called the hospital. She has a concussion and two broken ribs with scratches all over her arms. If you want to be in this thread and aren't a Cullen you can be in the bed beside her (: or a nurse/doctor.))

[ROSALIE HALE CULLEN]

Rose had of cause been working on one of her spare cars that were parked in the garage, and her car that was ready to be tested just outside the garage. Getting covered in car grease and oil, having the radio on as she worked away. After about an hour or so working she had finally finished with the old car that most would say should have been scarp metal, but since Rose had finished fixing and working on her car, ‘there all done. With this one. Now it will just need a wash, but that can be done a bit later.’

As she putting her car tools away to where they lived and really nobody could find them apart from her. Rose knew that the house was empty, apart from her, because she could not get anyone’s scent at all, but as she was opening the garage door, she then heard the house phone ring, and walking right over towards the phone and picking up the phone and listening to what the other person was saying towards her.

When Rose had finished the call, it was a very good job that she was a vampire, because she zoomed upstairs and got changed and made herself cleaner and picked up her car keys from her bedside table, and ran out of the house. She called her mate and told him where she would be.

Getting into her cars she was very quick at starting the car and drove out of the Cullen’s drive very quickly, she of cause like most Cullen’s was a fast driver. Rose had to slow down when she got into the main town and hit the traffic. It of cause did not take her that long, parking her car right next to the door. Quickly walking in while looking for her sister ‘Ginny’

Stopping outside a room to where someone point towards, she then started talking to someone right out the door Is Ginny here?

"The short girl was pixielike,
thin in the extreme,
with small features.
Her hair was deep black,
cropped short and pointing in every direction."

Alice heaved a great sigh. She had been looking for Bella the whole day, as well as Ginny. Noticing Rosalie, she gracefully walked up to her. "Rosalie!" Alice spoke frantically. "I've been meaning to ask you a question.. Have you seen Bella or Ginny? Is Ginny here? What happened to her, is she alright?"

[/b]


Alice smiled, a flicker of hope glistening in her eyes. "Have you seen her? What happened?" she asked. "I hope she's fine.." [/b]Alice paced back and fourth for a few minutes. Hopefully, Ginny was safe. She crossed her arms and glanced around. "I was hoping that I could go shopping for clothes for Bella again today. Maybe shop with Ginny as well. But--is Ginny alright?" she brightened up.[/blockquote][/size]

"My head hurts." "You're smarter than this, come on. I'm in pain that's mostly pressure which means I've had something for pain? And I'm in a bed...So I could be at the hospital. Wonderful. What happened though?"

Edward had been by her side all this time. He got the call from his father. Who was off looking at Ginny's X-Ray's. She was really badly hurt from what Edward could see. And hearing her thoughts as she was knocked out was nothing new either. He heard minds all the time. So it was all natural for him. He was so worried about his sister. He was scared that she was not going to recover from this. He let his stress level peek up a bit higher. No one had better not get on his bad side.

He held Ginny's hand in his....To just let her know that there was some one there for her. He knew it was a matter of time when some one else would come in. But all this while, all Edward could do was be there for his sister. He smelt the familiar scents of his other two sisters who were near the room. He had been here for a long time. He was not going to leave his sister's side. His heart could only take so much. He was so worried about loosing her. He hated loosing his loved ones to death. If he could he would've saved his mother after he was a vampire. But she had died already of the Spanish Influenza. And he hated himself some times that he was saved and his mother and father died...

He could not leave his sister's side. He wanted to let them know where he was. He really did. But what if Ginny woke up when he was not here...Which is what she had just done. He saw her eyes flicker open..."Ginny?" He asked as he leaned in to her and said her name lowly. Maybe she could pull out of this. Maybe she could be better after all. She was a hybird. Of course she could. He knew she would. He had no doubts. And when she opened her eyes, he smiled as he leaned up to her slowly. And placed a hand on her fore head..."Can you hear me? It's Edward...." He let her know. He was just relieved that she was going to be okay. At least he hoped she would be. He knew it was hard for him to not go kill that vampire that did this to her....But he knew where he neened to be...And here was where he was needed at the moment...

Hearing Edward's voice inside the room, Alice slowly turned the doorknob and opened the door. She beamed a smile at the sight of Ginny. She crossed her arms and glanced back at Rosalie. "Rosie--Ginny is here," she sighed with relief and started to slowly move forward to the bed Ginny was lying on. "What happened to you?" Alice asked quietly, though she was aching to know.

"Are you alright?" Alice said, kneeling next to Ginny. She glanced at Edward. "Do you know what happened to her, is-is she alright?" Alice was very concerned. She wanted to make sure Ginny wasn't hurt at all. "S-she's alright... right?" Alice asked. She stared at Ginny, a stern look on her face.

Alice had had a vision of Ginny a few days ago, but had no idea what had happened to her. She only had seen her kneeling next to her, asking questions. "I had a vision of this once," Alice mumbled. "I just didn't know what happened to you. I only thought that you had a slight injury--" Alice sighed. She glanced back at Rosalie for a minute, and gestured towards Ginny.

Alice frowned and her eyes scanned the room for a nurse. "Where's the nurse? Maybe she has some information on what happened to Ginny..." Alice mumbled to herself, still scanning the room. She got up from her kneeling position and began to walk around the room, looking for a nurse or doctor--anybody who had information on what happened.

[esme]

Esme had been sat in her study designing blue prints for their next move, it had quite be decided where it would be yet but no doubt it would be brought up at the next family meeting. She was humming to herself softly and she allowed her ideas to come across on the paper that lay in front of her on her desk. It was once again an overcast day in the small town of Forks and so there was no worry for any of them suddenly sparkling in the presence of humans. It was always a risk it could happen, but with Alice always keeping a look out for such events they could relax and carry on as they normally would. As she drew upon the paper, she would sometimes run a hand through her hair.

The house was spotless as normal and since Carlisle was at the hospital, she was enjoying a quiet day though she did miss the noise in the house. It was a comfort to her that her entire family was and they could unwind, not having to hide in the one place they could be who they were. It was a breath of fresh air. No doubt they were all doing something of their own and getting up to no good. A fond smile crossed her face at this thought. Esme was dressed in a simple black pencil skirt, with a light blue blouse and her black pumps to match. Her hair was back in a clip so that is was off her face but it flowed freely down her back.

Then her phone rang; picking it up she looked at the caller I.D to see that it was Carlisle. Yet another smile crossed her faced as she answered it, but nothing could prepare her for the news that he was about to give her. Within a second, she dropped her pencil and she had never been so thankful for her speed. Esme was in one of the spare cars in the garage and she took off down the long winding road. The news struck Esme with and she did not know what to. The second she had heard what was going on, a million thoughts sprinted through her mind. How did it happen? Was Ginny going to be alright? She hoped with everything that she had that she was. It was the news she did not want to hear.

So many emotions; so many questions. She kept them all to herself, of course. She didn't know what was going to happen and she had no idea what to expect. All that she knew was that she would do anything to help, anything to save Ginny. In no time at all she arrived at the hospital. Esme grabbed the jacket off the seat and placed it on to keep up appearances. Swiftly she moved to the reception area and she received a few looks from the humans. “Hello, can you please tell me where Ginny Cullen is please?” She spoke to the young woman at the desk. Esme got the answer she wanted and she took off in the correct direction. She saw that Rosalie was stood outside the room, she gave her daughter a small smile.

Without a second thought she entered the correct room to see Ginny, Alice, and Edward inside. “Oh sweetheart…” Esme trailed off, her voice full of pain at seeing her daughter hurt. “What happened?” She asked, her eyes full of sadness and she walked into the room fully and made her way to Ginny’s bedside. She placed her hand softly on Edward’s shoulder and gave a weak smile to her daughter.

Currently pinning down a very angry grizzly bear was not the time to get a phone call, usually he wouldn't carry his phone but Rosalie made sure he did no matter how many times he told her, he was a big boy and could take care of himself. However usually he only ever got phone calls if it was something important, snapping the bears neck clean in half it fell motionless, digging out his phone he glanced at the caller I.D Rose? at this time? Flipping the phone open he answered. "Yo, Babe what's up?" he said sounding surprisingly cheery even during mid hunt. As he listened he rolled his eyes, again? Ginny was hurt again, she was as bad as Bella at times. After a brief conversation Emmett hung up, she wasn't dying so what was the rush? Without further a do, he tucked into the bear, and drained it dry.

Moments later Emmett was heading on the road to wards the hospital, a teddy bear on the passenger seat behind him, hey he couldn't bring her a grizzly bear so he brought the next best thing! Parking the car, well parking being used loosely to describe abandoning the car, Emmett locked it and climbed out patting his monster truck as he did so. with the bag of bits he had stopped off to get, he made his way to wards the hospital, and could smell his family all over the place so it didn't take any great deal of where to go. Slipping past the gaze of the nurse on duty. He made his way into the room that was perhaps too small for all 6 of them, still nothing like a bit of cosiness here and there. "Dude..Gin your getting as bad as Bella you gotta actually watch where your going, any who, I brought you a bear! well a dog looking thing but they all look the same. I was gunna bring Grizzly but it wouldn't fit through the door." He shrugged and grinned before he pulled out the teddy bear. "Ta da!" he said as he then planted it on the bed.

Glancing around the room at all the sullen faces, Emmett rolled his eyes and moved to Ginny's ear "quick make a run for it before they all go into depression. I tell you that's ain't no pretty sight." he commented as he climbed up over the bed to get to the other side, closer to the door. Leaning against the wall he cross his arms over his chest, sure she looked like she was in pain, but she wasn't dying so it was no real biggy, although given everyone else's expression you would think she was on death's door. Doom and bloody gloom, all round. He hoped he didn't have to stay long hospitals and him never got along well, they were too clean, and too white. Not to mention small also.

[GINNY CULLEN]

"Ginny?" "Can you hear me? It's Edward...." The words spoke to her and she immediately recognized the voice to be Edward. She looked over to where he was standing with her eyes and gave a weak smile. "Hi Edward." She said in a quiet, hushed voice. Her eyes shut again trying to calm the headache that was pulsing through her temples and down her neck. Then she heard Alices voice come through the door. Any other time she wouldn't mind her rambling or talkative nature, however, at the moment her head was in to much pain. She sighed and opened one of her eyes to look at her arm, an IV was placed there which meant Carlisie was here somewhere. Any other doctors wouldn't have been able to put that through her tough skin. “Oh sweetheart…” Ginny's heart sank at the sound of her mothers voice. She didn't want her to see her like this...Well, she didn't want anyone to see her like this but especially Esme.

"I'm okay, mom." She said with the same tone she used for Edward. Ginny felt to drained to use her usual soft, dream-like voice and the pain didn't help much at all. "Ta da!" She had opened her eyes to see what Emmett was up too. She couldn't help but smile at the stuffed animal he brought along. It was a thoughtful thing for him to do...considering the grizzly apparently wouldn't fit through the door. She took the bear and place it on her lap making sure not to move any part of her but her arm. When he climbed over the bed she moved slightly causing pain to shoot through her broken ribs. Her eyes closed tightly and did her best not to show pain.

By that time a nurse walked through the door. "Hello sleepy head." She said softly. "I'm just changing her IV then I'll be leaving." The women told the group standing around her. As she switched the bags she added, "This will make your feel better. I still don't understand why Dr. Cullen wants you on so much pain medication...Either way, you have broken ribs. So, do your best not to move." That wouldn't be an issue. She didn't want to move in anyway, shape, or form. She just wanted to lay there. "Thank you." She muttered as the nurse walked out of the room. Her attention then turned to Esme who had the saddest look on her face. "Don't worry, mom, I'm fine. I don't remember what happened though...I thought I was at the art store."

[ROSALIE HALE CULLEN]

Rose of cause had seen nearly everyone go inside the room and she was still outside of the room everyone was in. This beautiful vampire could hear everything that was going on inside of the room where Ginny was. Her once calm mood was gone and in its place was a not so happy Rose. Moving herself towards the seat just outside the room, sitting herself down the seat making sure she was in the shadows as she knew that nearly every member of her family was inside the room. This vampire knew she had to keep her away from other, because she would be throwing something sooner or later. I really don’t want to be here, but I do care. I just….

Shaking her head lightly at that thought as she was trying not to go on down the road she does not want to really go down. Keeping herself outside for a little while longer, Rosalie could hear what was being said, and after a few minutes of sitting outside on the seat. What to do? I doubt she wants to many in with her. Or I could go and find the other vampire, and try and find out who did this. it was not that easy to see that Rose was having a hard time to decide on what to do, this beautiful vampire just wanted to let her angry out somehow, and she also wanted to find out where the vampire who did this to her sister.

Slowly she began to stand up from the seat she had been sitting on, she had somehow managed to grab a hold of a vase, she then tightened her hand around the glass vase as she happened to crumble the vase to pieces not really minding if she would get seen or not.

Dropping the pieces of broken vase onto the ground as she walked further down the empty corridor, she then grabbed a hold of a few chairs and in a matter of minutes they had all turned into tiny little pieces. Quietly growling to herself as she had to pretend to blink so she could blend in as she was making her way back towards where Ginny and the rest of them where, but this vampire suddenly stop walking when her eyes saw something, but shook her head as she made her way towards the room, and she had finally opened the door to the room they were in, and she quietly made her way in and stood in the corner even though she knew that most would know she was here.

[edwardcullen]

He felt his mother's hand so firm on his shoulder. It was a way of letting him know she was here. For him and everyone else now. He could relax. But he was not going to relax until he knew for certain that Ginny was going to get through this. He read Ginny's mind while she was asleep. And all he saw was some kind of vampire attacking her. He never saw their face either. But it was definitely a vampire. Edward would prefer that Ginny tell her story any way of what happened to her. He hated the fact that he could read minds. Even hybirds. But he just shrugs it off his shoulders half to time and ignores the thoughts of others.

And then he heard Ginny say his name and he smiled. "Hi Edward." He never let go of her hand as he rubbed his thumb on top of it gently. He could see her veins popping out of her neck. But he tried his best to ignore that as he looked her in her little eyes then...She was so fragile right now. This event reminded them all that she was not all vampire. Edward knew it but at times he thought that most of the others never really realized that she was half human. Maybe this would open their eyes. He tried to be strong for her. As he let his feelings for her wash away at the moment. He did not want any one in this room knowing that he was starting to like her more than a sister. He felt the sadness radiating off his mother...As she starting talking to her daughter...

And then there was Emmett...So carefree and happy in any situation. He was always reassuring them that things would turn out in the end okay. And that they should not worry so much. But it was written all over Edward's face that he was worried. He smiled weakly when Emmett came in a bundle of happiness to share with his sister as he gave her the stuffed animal. Edward then just let go of his sisters hand for a moment so the others can get over to her...As he stood in the corner alone. He was the first one here after all. He was not going any where. And if she needed him he would be here for her. Simple as that.

A lot of emotions were running through his mind at this moment any way. That he had to hide himself from the others. He was always like this though. The quiet and loner of the group. He didn't mind. It began to be natural with out Bella around. They all knew he was going through the absence of her as well was killing him a little inside...But he was doing all he could he remain calm....Bella has not given him any reason to doubt her. So why would he start now?

[jasper]

I tried to kill the pain but only brought more,

I lay dying and I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal.

Silence. That was a thing that Jasper was used to, the silence around him, but it was are that he got emotional silence, that only came when he was out, by himself, away from humans and vampires. So, he had decided to stay at home for a while, everyone was at the hospital and they were worried. He didn’t need to be with them at the current moment, he had sensed it before they left. Of course, it was always good to be wary when it came to going towards the hospital, especially if you hadn’t hunted for a while and your eyes were almost black.

Heaving a sigh, Jasper got up and walked towards the garage. They had had long enough to patch her up, whatever had happened. That news had not yet flown to Jasper, apart from about her being in hospital. He just had to hope that no other human was wounded and that their blood flowed out of them, onto the wind and caught his attention. But Alice would be there, if anything was going to get out of control, she would see it about to happen and prevent a murder. Besides, Jasper didn’t want to slip up, it just paid to have precaution.

Silently, Jasper mounted his Ducati and started it into life. Driving out into the fresh air, he quickly used the speed as soon as he was out of the drive way and drove into Forks, where he had to flow down. Pulling up to the hospital, he slid of the vehicle. Moving swiftly at a human speed he moved up the stairs to the entrance and into the reception. “I’m going to check up on my sister. Carlisle will allow it.” He said softly to the receptionist who had risen at his approach. However, his words had her quickly seated.

Walking through the hospital, following the scent of his family, Jasper quickly reached then and moved to stand next to Alice. “What have I missed?” he asked her softly. His dark eyes held concern as he stood straight next to his mate, among his family. So far, there had been no scent of blood to tempt him and Jasper hoped that it would remain this way.

Alice turned to Jasper. "Ginny has broken ribs," she said sadly. Alice Cullen turned back to Ginny. "What happened to you, Ginny? Your ribs are broken," sadness was in Alice's voice. She sighed and sat down next to her on the bed. Well, mom is here.. And so is Jasper, Emmet, Rose and me.. But where is Bella? Alice stared at Ginny with kind eyes. She smiled at her warmly and put her hand on Ginny's arm.

Alice glanced back at the door. What happened to her? I can't believe that she got hurt, again. But this time it's serious. Why? What happened to her? Alice turned back to Ginny, and sighed quietly. "Do you feel alright?" she asked with sympathy. Hopefully, Ginny would be alright for the next few days. Alice just hoped that Ginny wouldn't move around as much, and just stay in bed for a week, or such..

Though Ginny had been injured many times, Alice had never seen her look so feeble, so weak and frail. Alice lightly squeezed Ginny's arm and smiled at her. Though she was very sad, Alice chose to smile at Ginny--just to make her feel better. She quietly mumbled her thoughts to herself, and looked at Ginny once more. Alice had been hoping to take Ginny shopping today, just like she shopped with Bella.

But Alice had just found out that Ginny had been injured, with broken ribs.

[jasper]

I tried to kill the pain but only brought more,

I lay dying and I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal.

Jasper frowned at Alice's words. Broken ribs. What had the little hybrid been doing? Jasper could tell that his mate was sad and he didn't want that. Slowly, Jasper tried to cheer everyone up, doing it so slowly that they hopefully wouldn't notice. Alice probably would, though, she would of seen the decision he had made to try and lighten the emotional atmosphere. Sometimes the emotions in hospitals could be hard to be with. Painful emotions, like when someone was going to die or had just died. Other times they could be happy and joyful. Whena new life was born, when someone recovered from something that was thought to be fatal. It was never easy, being inside a hospital. And the human blood was also a problem. Jasper was just glad that there didn't appear to be any open wounds anywhere.

Being able to sense others emotions was sometimes a gift, Jasper was able to sense Alice's emotions and tell that she was upset becuase she had been planning a shopping trip with Ginny. He didn't want the little pixie-like vampire to be upset over this so he decided that if she wanted, he would go with her. "If you want, I'll go shopping with you." he whispered softly to Alice. He didn't want her to be sad, only happy. Hopefully Ginny would recover soon, then Alice would be able to go on her planned trip with Ginny.

Golden eyes flickered towards the body, broken ribs. Jasper had never recieved any serious injuries in his human life, the more serious injuries he had suffered where in his vampire lie and constantly scared him. There wasn't much Jasper could do to help her, so he sent some extra emotions towards the injured girl, comforting emotions, safe emotions. That might make her feel a bit better. He didn't let any sign of his actions appear on his face. Instead, the former soldier jsut stood with an emotionless expression.
