"You knocked her up!" Charlie accused, pointing his finder at Edward.
"I did no such thing." Edward denied. I was white. I knew Charlie wouldn't react well, and he hadn't taken his gun off either.
"You must have you creepy kid, otherwise you wouldn't be here. What did you do, rape her?" Charlie demanded.
"N'no sir." Edward stammered, I couldn't blame him for being nervous, even if he was immortal.
"There's no other reason to be getting married at eighteen." Charlie bellowed.
"We're in love." Edward replied. I hid my face in my hands, peeking out from between my fingers. I had gone from white to red in under three seconds. I also knew, from the look on Charlie's face, that this would not end well.
"LIES!" Charlie screamed, and in one quick motion he had his gun out and shot Edward in the chest. The crack echoed through the room for the milisecond no one moved.
It didn't bother Edward at all, didn't even mar his perfect skin, but I was still worried of course. I'd even forgotten Charlie was in the room until I heard a loud thud.
"Oh my god." I breathed, landing on my knees next to Charlie's head.
"He's fine," Edward comforted, hand on my shoulder. "He just over-reacted to my none injury."
"How are we going to explain this to him?" I asked, touching to bullet hole in Edward's clothes and the unmarked skin in the hole.
"Hide it." He decided, disappearing for a couple of seconds and reappearing with a different shirt on.
"Won't he notice?"
"He shouldn't." Edward assured. "All we have to do is convince him he over-reacted when we told him our news."
Which he had either way. I nodded at Edward and began to gently shake Charlie's shoulder. "Dad, wake up, Dad?" I pleaded.
With a moan Charlie's eyes fluttered open. "Wha happened?" He asked.
"You fainted when I said Edward and I were getting married." I blurted.
Charlie promptly fainted again.
Ohmygod I actually did something! I am proud of me since I've been such a procrastinater. I don't think I spelled that right. I know it's just a short one-shot, but it's meant to be short, and I've had this on my mind for a while now.
I don't own the characters, just the plot. Ask questions if I wrote something you don't understand. All complaints are asked to be in the form of constructive critisim. Reviews appreciated.
Now that we have all the blah blah blah stuff out of the way, I have an announcement to make. I have finally realized that I have been well, a bit of an idiot. I realized that beta's are very important and that I should have gotten one a lot sooner. A second opinion is loved (absolutely loved) and my typing and such isn't always the greatest, so to get to the point, I am searching for a beta who can keep up with my crazy update (or lack there of) times and my criminally insane mind. If anyone's interested please pm me. Thanks.
