The
Accident
My
name is Edward Anthony Cullen. I am 17 years old and am currently a
junior.
I
was speeding to get home. I had a new song in mind that I wanted to
play on the piano. That's when it happened. I was going straight
ahead when a car came and crashed into my left side. My head hit the
window and then the steering wheel. Then everything went black.
I
heard strange beeping noises and voices around me. My body was aching
and my head was pounding. Where was I? What happened? Why do I feel
so much pain? I rapidly opened my eyes only to close them in a flash
because of the bright light. I opened them again slowly and looked
around. I was on a hospital bed covered with gauze and
plaster.
"Where
am I?" I asked. I noticed my voice was much deeper than before.
What was going on?
The
nurse looked at me with wide eyes and said "I'll go get your
family." I heard voices outside of the room. Carlisle, Esme, Alice,
and Emmett came rushing in. They all looked exhausted. Their eyes
were red and puffy.
"Mommy," I called.
Esme and Alice came rushing to my side and threw themselves at me. "Oh Edward, my baby!" Mommy cried.
"Mommy what happened?" I asked.
"Edward you don't remember?" She asked. I shook my head. No. "You were in a car accident, you were speeding home and somebody crashed into you!" She told me. But that made no sense!
"I was in a car accident?! But mommy I'm only 5 years old I can't even drive yet!" I exclaimed. Everybody gasped! What was wrong with me?!
