I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT!

Chapter 1

"Daddy! Daddy!" I woke up hearing my son cry. I got out of bed stubbing my toe on the moving boxes in the hallway. We were moving back to Forks in the coming days to be closer to my parents. "Dad!" Matt was sobbing now.

"Hey buddy," I said picking him up. He was sobbing uncontrollably. "I've got you son."

"I had a bad dream," He cried.

"Tell me about it."

"You left me," He whimpered.

I laid down in the bed with him holding him to me. "I'm right here buddy, I'm not going anywhere."

"Why did mommy leave me?" He cried.

"She was sick Matt," I said fighting my own tears.

"I miss her."

"I do to son," I said softly. His sobs quieted and he fell back asleep in my arms.

(FLASH BACK)

"Lauren honey, I'm home."

"Hi," She whispered from the doorway of the bathroom. She was wearing her white bathrobe, her hair was pulled back in a messy bun, and she was pale.

"Are you still sick?" I asked her.

She nodded. "I've been spotting a little bit, but nothing happens."

"I got the test," I said.

"Should I take it now or in the morning?" She asked taking it from me.

"There are two in there, take one now and see what it says." I suggested.

I paced the hallway waiting for her to come back to me. She opened the door and a huge smile crept across her face. "I'm pregnant."'

I grabbed her and held her to me, spinning us around. "Edward!" She gasped.

"Sorry," I said putting her down quickly.

She ran into the bathroom and began throwing up. "Sorry honey," I said rubbing her back.

(END FLASH BACK)

I wiped away my tears, there would never be anyone else in the world that I would love more than her.

The next morning I got up and went into the kitchen. It was all packed up, yet I'd left just enough for Matt and I to get by on for the next couple days. My brother-in-laws Emmett and Jasper had called saying they would be here before noon to help us load the truck. At first mom was going to come with them, then fly back with Matt, however, he panicked stating that he was afraid I would leave him. So I declined her offer.

I'd never in my wildest dreams thought I'd move back to Forks. After graduation, I'd moved to Chicago to the Art Institute there. Lauren graduated 2 years after I did and followed me out there. We married and not long after that discovered she was pregnant.

(FLASH BACK)
I sat in the waiting room next to Lauren watching as she rubbed her hand over her stomach. "Give me your hand, he's moving."

"He?" I asked placing my hand on her stomach feeling our baby kick her.

"Yes, I just know this will be a little boy that looks exactly like you," She said leaning over and kissing my cheek.

(END FLASH BACK)

"I'm hungry daddy," Matt said walking into the kitchen rubbing his eyes.

"What would you like?" I asked him.

"Cheerios."

I got up and got him his cereal then went and sat back down. "Why do we have to move?" He asked softly. We'd been over this many times, but he still asked.

"I got a job teaching music at the high school."

"Where will I be while you are working?" He asked.

"You get to start kindergarten." I told him.

His lip quivered and his eyes filled with tears. "I don't want to go to kindergarten."

"Matt," I sighed. "You will have so much fun."

"I don't want to leave mommy," He said softly.

"I know that Matt, but this is something we need to do."

"Daddy, did mommy love me?" He asked.

"Yes buddy, she loved you so much."

"I miss her," He whispered.

"I know you do, I do to."

"What if she comes back and we aren't here?"

"Matt, mommy's not coming back." Tears spilled down his cheeks and I went over and picked him up.

I was raised not to cry, however over the last few years, I threw that shit out the window and many times, I cried with my son.

An hour later Emmett and Jasper showed up. "Super Matt!" Emmett exclaimed. He smiled softly at Emmett, but stayed close to my side.

"Hi Uncle Emmett."

Jasper got down on his level. "Hi buddy, you've gotten so big since the last time I saw you."

"Hi uncle Jasper."

I got Matt busy taking small boxes to the porch. "How's he doing?" Emmett asked.

"He was doing okay until he found out about the move."

"Poor kid," Emmett said shaking his head.

"I just hope I'm doing the right thing."

"Edward, you know this is the right thing to do. Esme and Carlisle are more than willing to help."

"Jasper, that's all they've done this past year, I know I need to get a job," I sighed. "And moving is the only way to make it work the best for him."

"You know they haven't minded." Emmett said. "Matt has really needed you this year."

"Can you watch him for a few minutes, there's something I need to do."

"Sure," They said in unison.

I said goodbye to Matt promising him that I would be right back. He was really upset, but Emmett and Jasper kicked me out anyways.

I stopped by a flower shop and then drove across town. I was shaking as I got out of the car and made the walk up the hill.

"Hey Laur," I said placing the flowers down and sitting down myself. I traced her name slowly. "I know I haven't been out here in awhile. Matt still struggles a lot. He wonders when and if you are coming back." I wiped my eyes. "It's been a year and it still really hurts. Seems like it was just yesterday."

(FLASH BACK)
"I wish I had better news for both of you, but it's cancer." The doctor said.

I gripped my twenty year old wife's hand. "A...are you s...sure?" Lauren asked holding our 8 week old son close to her.

"I'm so sorry," He said.

"What can we do?" I asked.

"There are several options, we can do a lumpectomy removing the lump or we could do a mastectomy, remove the breast basically."

Lauren gripped my hand. "Do I have to go through Chemo?" She asked.

"Yes we will treat you with Chemo and radiation."

The walk to the car was long. I placed Matt in the back of the car and grabbed my wife holding her as she cried. "I'm going to be bald, sick, and I wont have my breast..." She sobbed.

"Your hair will grow back and I don't care about your breast as long as I have you."

(END FLASHBACK)

"I love you so much Lauren." I sat there for a few minutes longer. "I'm taking Matt back to Forks, I got a job teaching music out there and Matt is about to start kindergarten. I know you are watching over us baby. I love you angel."

I got up took one last long look at her grave and walked away.
