Prologue

"Henry Swan, stop running!" Bella all but yelled as she desperately tried to go after he son, but was being proven very difficult to do so in her high heels. The clicking against the tile floor matched the sudden rapid rate of her heart, thumping loudly against her chest. The one time I decided to go to the supermarket after work, he runs of on me! she thought. His two year old legs were much too fast for her to keep up with and before she knew it he was disappearing in the cereal aisle faster than she could catch up with him. A sudden gasp from a stranger was quickly followed by a crash. Thinking that her feet were probably bleeding out by now, Bella pushed herself to run even faster and heard the cries of her baby boy.

Henry was looking petrified at the broken glass on the floor, red sauce covering over three tiles and one very expensive looking sandal from the woman standing next to him. At first, Alice was just shocked to see that someone had bumped into her and made her spill the red cooking sauce she was currently reading the Nutrition Facts from. She looked around at first, ready to mouth of anyone and tell them they better have money to pay off at least half of what her new shoes cost when she abruptly looked down and saw the same shocked face of a toddler.

"Henry? Henry!" Bella ran towards her crying son, her arms encircling his small frame and her hand gently patting his back while she swayed from side to side.

"Shhhh baby, it's ok, it's ok. Mommy's got you…" she cooed to him. He wrapped his chubby arms around her neck tightly and buried his face into her neck, still scared of what had just happened.

Even though Alice had only stared at the baby boy for roughly two seconds, there was only one person that came to her mind. The big green eyes, the curve of the nose and thin lips resembled only one other person in this entire planet. Aside from the obvious brown hair, there was no denying it.

"I am so sorry about this! I'll pay for the sauce and for your shoes" Bella apologized, snapping Alice from her reverie. "My son can be a little firecracker when he wants to," she rambled, "and I'm pretty sure he got the clumsiness from me. I mean…I don't know if he got it from…I mean…uh…" Jesus Bella shut up! This woman doesn't have to know that you were impregnated by some anonymous donor!

Henry's cries subsided now that he felt the warm embrace of his mother. He lifted his face up and looked straight at Alice, rubbing his eyes with his small fists.

Alice's breath caught in her throat as she looked at the boy.

"Fuck, shit, fuck, and fuck!" she mumbled. It can't be!


Author's Note: My first attempt at this story which has been eating away at my brain for months now. I hope you liked this prologue just as much as I did writing it.

[edit October 30th, 2011: I did post the first chapter of the story but, from a few notes from my beta, decided to deleted it to rewrite it. Hopefully it will be up later today or tomorrow. So sorry about that!]
