do not own Twilight characters. This is just in fun for fiction fans! BELLA/CARLISLE (NO ESME EVER in this story)
FYI: I don't know anything about Medical Stuff, so this is really rough, but you get the point. LOL.
"Dr. Cullen! Dr. Cullen! There's been an accident!" a nurse screamed jumping off the phone with the EMT's and now running towards the now bursting doors "it's your daughter's friend, the long brown headed girl that comes in with her sometimes to visit you. The other guy walked away with no injuries reported." He rushed over to the EMT's as they pushed Bella towards a room "Bella?" his eyes trailing all over her unconscious body as the nurse took her blood pressure and temp calling it out to the other nurses for the files as they hurried through toward the back.
"Bella, I need you to wake up sweetheart. Talk to me" his hand reached out examining the head wound then down at her side seeing too much clothing and a lot of blood. "Bella sweetie, come on. You're going to be okay. Can you hear me?" he paused "she's in a coma." She had hit her head really hard against the side window when the drunk guy ran the red light, ramming into her driver side. He of course was not injured.
They got to a room, lifted the sheet she was laying on transferring her to a bed in the emergency room Carlisle calmly spoke pulling the curtain around to block anyone from viewing them "Nurse Shayla run an iv to get antibotics and pain medication going now. We might need a pint of blood depending how much she has lost" He sighed looking her over again "please remove her clothing too. I need to see her left side. I'm sure she has a broken arm and possibly a few ribs, if not crushed." Nurses were back and forth from the bedside as Carlisle cleaned up the gash wound on her forehead to stitch "I'll need a CAT scan and X-ray of her body done soon as I'm done cleaning this up. I need to see how much trauma we are dealing with."
He shook his head as he began stitching up a large gash to the side of her head, not believing this was his Bella laying here. He thought Alice must not have seen this coming she would have stopped Bella or called him. Alice was hunting in Canada and wouldn't be back for a few days. His eyes quickly cut to the nurse who was right beside him and now had scissors cutting Bella's clothing off. He looked around spotting another nurse standing making eye contact with her. "Dr. Cullen can I do anything right now?" she asked and he nodded "please call my son Edward. His number posted by mine on the wall in the staff room. Tell him what has happened and to get Alice here as soon as possible." The nurse nodded and ran from the room doing as he asked.
Dr. Cullen finished up. The nurse pulled away Bella's clothing when Carlisle walked off to wash his hands from the blood she placed a hospital sheet on top of her to cover up what didn't need to be exposed to everyone. He came back examining her left side "along with Nurse Shayla (who was a older 48 year old woman with medium gray hair, slim and very sweet) to help him. He saw a few cuts that needed stitching, horrible bruising already "damn. Get her x-rays and the cat scan now before I do anything else."
"Hold tight Bella" he leaned over and whispered to her "I won't let anything happen to you now" even if he had to turn her now instead of waiting "I love you Bella" he kissed her cheek then stood back motioning for the staff to take her for x-rays "Stat!" They hustled taking her off to do as Dr. Cullen needed. The other nurse came back seeing Carlisle "I'm really sorry about her Dr. Cullen. I can tell you love her." She paused, "she's in good hands." She gently patted his shoulder "if there's anything I can do to help you and the family, please let me know." She was a smart caring 23 year old nursing student, short black hair, bright blue eyes with a great future to look forward to and who didn't react to his good looks like most of the nurses did.
Carlisle waited for them to get done with the tests. He sat in his office leaning over his desk with his hands covering his face thinking. "Dad" Edward, Rosalie and Emmett appeared in his door now walking in. Rosalie hugged him "how is she?" Pulling from her embrace and hugging the others "I don't know yet, too early to tell until the tests come back for me to read" His head hung "Alice and Jasper? Did you get them?" Edward nodded "I got Jasper to answer his phone. Alice didn't see it coming and now they are heading back quickly leaving the car behind. Jasper said it would be quicker to run." Emmett checked his watch "About an hour they should be back."
Nurse Shayla walked in, "sorry Dr. Cullen to disrupt but your tests are back." He jumped up heading out of the room toward the lab. He walked in looking over everything slowly "3 broke ribs and a broken arm. The CAT scan looks normal, just a major concussion, maybe a little memory loss and she's in a slight coma." Nurse Shayla nodded, "it could have been way worse. She will be okay Doctor. I'm glad she is okay."
"Me too." he gave her a half smile "I'll tape her ribs up and cast her arm if you could please put her in ICU, bathe her down to get all the blood off and I'll have my daughter get her clean clothes from her house." With that he left the room back to where Bella was back in the ER. He taped her ribs, put a cast on her arm and stitched up a few more wounds then left the rest to his best nurse, Nurse Shayla. An hour later, Carlisle headed back into his office where his family was giving them the update on the test results.
Bella didn't have any family anymore. Renee her mother died 4 months ago from accidental crash and Charlie couldn't stand to look at Bella so he up and left.
The Cullen clan sat there talking as another doctor came in to take over the other patients so Carlisle could attend to Bella and the staff took over everything else so Carlisle could focus on his family. Alice and Jasper finally made it there, whisking in "where is she?" Alice was frantic. Softly he spoke "ICU. She is in a slight coma, 3 broken ribs and a broke arm. Not to mention all the bruising and gash on the side of her head. She was extremely lucky." Carlisle shook his head "why Bella? I love her. I haven't told her yet, but I do love her." Alice smiled "Carlisle." She hugged him tight "she will be okay."
The nurse came back a little later "Dr. Cullen, she is ready in ICU if you all want to visit her now. Visiting hours are over so you all should have quiet time to sit with her now. We promise not to run you and your family out. You are the exception to the rule." He nodded and led his family to where Bella was at. They all walked in quietly surrounding her bed just watching her. Carlisle closed the curtain and walked to her checking out the iv's that were running pain meds and antibotics into her system.
Everyone waited for Carlisle to talk to her first. He leaned over taking her hand in his "Bella. We are all here with you. You're going to be okay. I need you to be strong and wake up."
Jasper began messing with her emotions, stirring feelings in her to get her to wake up. Eyes began twitching, fingers moving some. Alice took her other hand in hers, "Bella. It's your very best friend in the world. I think this means a long day of shopping to make up for this you know." Bella's eyes popped open slowly looking at these people standing around her. with a confused expression, vision a little blurred at first.
"Bella" Carlisle smiled with tender loving eyes, lightly squeezing her hand.
Bella asked looking at everything then locking eyes with Jasper. "Where am I?"
"It's okay Bella. You're safe and will be good to go home in a couple of days. You were in a car accident A drunk man ran a red light and hit you." Jasper said to her gently placing his hand on the covers that covered her leg sending calming emotions to her.
"Bella, it's okay." Carlisle softly squeezing her hand again, leaning over her slightly. Her eyes cut to Carlisle looking into his golden eyes searching for an answer "Bella?" she shook her head in confusion "who are you and why are you calling me that name? My name is...my name is...umm...I can't think right now." She glanced at everyone then at Carlisle whispering to him "are you my doctor? I mean the white coat is kind of hot. Wait, you're way too sexy to be a doctor, more like a model. Seriously like what dream did you fall out of? I'm dreaming aren't I?" she nodded thinking he was going to agree that she was dreaming.
Emmett chuckled a little "sexy? She called you sexy Carlisle?"
Carlisle bit his lip leaning back up looking at the others "its memory loss. She might be like this for weeks or months." His attention focued back at her "you don't know who I am? Or her?" pointing at Alice. Alice smiled with concern, "Bella. It's Alice, your best friend. We went day before yesterday and you rode that kiddy riding truck as a dare. Remember? I even took a picture with my camera phone."
Bella shook her head no and looked from Alice back at the sexy doctor squinting her eyes searching his name tag "Dr. Cu..Cu..Cullen?" she looked from him to the others "someone pinch me right now, seriously." he did notice she cheated checking his name tag. Bella had never called him Dr. Cullen before, golden eyes looked at the others and finger began pointing "you don't remember Rosalie, Emmett, Edward and Jasper either?" looking back at Bella, "we're your family. I'm your…I.. well… I love you Bella Swan. I haven't quiet asked you out yet but I have wanted to."
Bella snickered slightly then paused gazing in Carlisle's eyes "Dr. 'Dream Man' Cullen, I would be considered your girlfriend?" She giggled "you're really funny Doc and stop messing with me. I feel like I've been hit by a truck okay. Ehh, I don't feel so great all of a sudden." placing her hand on her forehead rubbing it like it hurt to think. "I think you have the wrong patient, I need to go home then I…well…I think I'm going to throw up..my head hurts so bad."
Carlisle reached over feeling if she had a fever "you're temp is 103.2" yes he can tell temp by touching. He looked at the others and Bella started talking again then he focused back on her "I have to go shopping with her." slowly pointing at Alice. "I can't wear this home. I feel gross."
Carlisle pulled a chair over sitting down beside her holding to her hand, chuckling "what you need sweetheart is to rest. The pain medication is making you loopy and you're saying crazy things."
She rolled her eyes "I think what I need is..." sitting up quickly, legs trying to move off the bed.
"Woa, oh no you don't" Jasper grabbed her from the other side of the bed.
"It hurts so bad to move." tears now streaming down her face.
Carlisle jumped up getting a nurse attention, "some sleep medication please. She is suffering memory loss and is trying to leave." The nurse noddedthen turned quickly grabbing a syringe and sleeping medicine. The nurse filled the syringe with the medicine and handed it to Carlisle. He walked back "lay down Bella. This will help you relax sweetheart." taking her arm rubbing a place on her upper arm to release the muscle then stuck the needle in, letting the medicine flow.
"You stop that. Why are you hurting me?" Bella trying to refuse his actions as Jasper held her casted arm gently so she wouldn't hit Carlisle.
"I'm doing it for your own good love. You'll thank me when you regain your memory." Carlisle pulled the needle out. "Go to sleep love" Carlisle pressed a kiss to her lips then moved out of the way. She studdered "you k kk kisse..d..m.e.." then drifted off to sleep.
Rosalie looked as if she would cry watching her friend like this. "I've never seen her like this. It scares me." Emmett pulled her against his big chest, "she will be okay Rose."
Carlisle stood facing them, "I know it's hard seeing her like this. It breaks my heart too. She should sleep till tomorrow. I ask if you would please go home, prepare my bedroom. I want her to stay with us for a while once she is released from here. I'll call you when she wakes." turning to the door "I'm going to go talk to a a couple of the other doctors. I'll be back to check on her in a bit. I want to get her moved to a private room." With that he left.
