"Lai just smile for me please!" I begged my five-year-old daughter as she was walking putting her favorite cereal into the cart. I felt someone watching us...
She giggled, "Mommy! That is the seventh picture in the last minute!" she put her little hands on her hips to try and protest with me. But we both knew that I won.
I lifted the camera giving her the puppy pout; she sighed then gave me the most adorable smile ever known.
I love my daughter like crazy. Right now we are in the grocery store back home where I grew up. Forks, Washington. When my daughter was born I was sixteen. Just ending my junior year. Great way to be remembered.
Thankfully, my best friend and my stepsister were with me. Alice and Rosalie. Alice and I have been best friends since we could breathe. We have done everything together. First drink together; result, me had baby. First car: Ali got a yellow Porsche, I got a blue Mercedes.
My stepsister Rosalie ironically came when I found out I was pregnant with Laila. My dad and her mom married each other four days after I went to that party. That is also why I went without much of an argument with Alice. I was a little upset still with there marriage. But Rose didn't even judge me. She just said, "No matter what, I will be here to help you Bells. No matter what." When I told her and her mom and my dad, I was nearly two months. My dad nearly had a heart attack, and he asked me who the father was. But not even I knew.
I know that sounds totally sluttish, but I swear when I had sex, that was my first time ever. One stupid party. One huge mistake. But thankfully my mistake turned out to be my miracle.
*Flashback*
"Alice I don't think this is such a great idea." I said to her. But she just shook her head at me.
"Bella! We have to go. Besides, it is at my house. I have every right to go." Alice said stubbornly. I knew I wasn't going to get my way, but I still argued. I was just as stubborn
"But Edward said-" I was immediately cut off. I was expecting that.
"I DON'T CARE WHAT EDWARD SAID. We are GOING!" Oh when she get angry. Her and her brother don't get along very well. I can't imagine why (HA!).
Edward is two years older than us. He just graduated in June. He was going to college soon as in like two days. We were going to be juniors once he left.
Alice thought that since we were going to be juniors soon, that we should go to our first party and have our first drink. We did everything together. We even got cars for when we get our license. It is early birthday presents. Surprise surprise our birthdays are even on the same day. September 14th. Alice was an hour before me but whatever.
When we went downstairs to the party there was no one we knew from our grade. It was only seniors. It was wild.
I looked at Alice, she was smiling like crazy. But she looked nervous too. I knew how she felt.
We went to the drink table. There was nothing but beer.
We looked at each other at the same time. I looked at Alice and shrugged. I said as we lifted our glasses of beer, "Bottoms up" We both giggled
After that one drink everything went fuzzy.
Next thing I knew, I was in the middle of the dance floor grinding on some random guy.
I looked at the guy, all I could see on him where his eyes. Which were big and green. Nothing else was familiar about him.
He whispered in my ear as he pulled me close, " You want to go upstairs?" His breathe smelt of alcohol. I didn't trust my voice from the way his voice sounded. All I could do was nod my head.
The last thing I really remembered was he was on top of me in a random bed. No clothes on. And then pure pleasure. Then black out after it was over.
When I woke up that next morning. I was all-alone in some bed naked.
I wanted to cry because I knew what had happened. I had had sex. And I had no idea whom with. I was a total slut. But how was I going to tell Alice?
I got dressed and then I walked into Alice's room. She was up. She was holding her head. She had a headache too.
I smiled at her. "Headache too?"
She looked up and smiled, "Yeah. It is killer."
I nodded.
"Hey, Bells? Can we go to your place? I don't know if my brother knows I was at the party. And I don't really want to find out if he had known."
I right away agreed with her too leave. I felt uncomfortable here.
We snuck downstairs. We heard Edward in the kitchen. We tried to be as sneaky as we could, but we were caught.
"Hold it." Edward said in a loud and clear voice. Both Alice and I had to hold our heads. Our heads hurt so much.
"Where do you think you are going?" Apparently he hadn't noticed me, so I could...
Alice saw my intentions and grabbed my arm, "If I'm going down, I am taking you down with me." Alice whispered at me. Damn her for knowing me so well.
Edward looked at me. His eyes were wide in shock for some reason. Did I have something on my face or something?
Alice spoke up, "You won't tell mom and dad will you?" Oh she was now using the puppy dogface. He couldn't resist...
"Ugh, I promise not to tell them. But you have to tell me what had happened to you last night." He said in a serious voice.
I decided to make an escape then. No way was I going to tell Alice's big brother that I had sex last night. "Well. I can see you two have a lot to talk about. Shame on you Alice." I shook my finger at her, "Well I must be going." I had my hand on the doorknob
"Not so fast Bella." Edward said. Damn it.
I turned around and was meet with Alice's angry eyes. Oh man I was in for it. Well might as well go for the kill, "Alice did it! She made me go." I pointed my finger at her.
Her mouth dropped open, "No way! You totally agreed to go! You went willingly!" she whispered to me, "Traitor."
I would rather be a traitor then be in trouble. I stuck my tongue at her.
Edward rolled his eyes then went into the kitchen, expecting us to follow. We did. We knew we couldn't run now.
After Alice told him what happened to her, she went up for a shower. Then he looked at me, "What about you?"
I looked into my orange juice, nervous. I knew I had to tell him. "Same thing with Alice. I had a few drinks I got extremely dizzy didn't realize much of what was going on. And then...um. Something else might have happened." I said
He looked at me with pleading eyes. ? That was weird.
"You going to tell me." He said
I looked down at the table, "Well...there was this guy I was dancing with, and he kind of sort of brought me upstairs and." I left the sentence empty.
"And." He egged on.
"We um...did the dirty? " I said. I didn't know how else to fraise it. I was terrified to look up.
He sighed. He was about to say something.
I quickly replied before he could talk, "I didn't know what I was doing. I don't even remember what he looked like let alone his name. I'm sorry. Sorry." I rushed putting my head into my hands. I was so in the verge of tears.
"Hey, hey it's okay. Don't cry it's okay." He pulled me into a hug. He looked distraught when I looked up at him. He was hiding something. But I wasn't about to push him. "Hey, do you want me to go get Alice?" He asked
I didn't trust my voice so I nodded.
This isn't happening.
* End of Flashback*
When I told Alice about that night when Edward left the room she was crying with me. I was scared.
She even bought a regency test with me at the drug store when I thought that I might be pregnant.
When we found out I was pregnant we cried harder.
She was with me when I told my father that I was pregnant.
She was there when Laila was born. She was even the godmother. Rose was there after Laila was born.
Laila's full name is Laila Alice Rosalie Swan. Both of them were there for me when Laila was born and after. I couldn't have asked for two better friends.
When we all went to college, we went to NYU. Alice went for teaching and so did Rose. I went for Journalism and Photography. Hence the camera. We just graduated college not only three weeks ago. Now I am 21 years old. Crazy how time fly's by.
I was smiling at Laila. She is so beautiful. She has brown hair; my color, and big green eyes; I am assuming like her fathers, and a heart shape face, with pale skin. She is my angel sent from heaven above.
I stood there in the middle of the aisle, smiling at her, when someone shouted, "Watch out!" I looked at to whom said that when someone pulled me by the waist, and slammed me on the floor. I heard a crash.
I looked up into a pair of beautiful green eyes. Like Laila's. What a coincidence. "Are you alright?" The man asked.
"I'm fine." I said. Then I looked around. "Laila?" I sat up as the man came off me. I looked around for my daughter she was next to the cart and her eyes were wide in shock.
"Laila! Are you okay sweetheart?" I asked frantically as I picked her up.
She hugged me, "I'm okay. Mommy are you okay?" She asked as she looked at me and put her hand on my face. I laughed; she was always worrying about me.
"I am fine honey." I turned with Laila still in my arms. "Thank you so-" Then I saw who it was. It was Edward.
"Edward? Is that-is that you?" I asked. I was shocked. Ever since I told him I had had sex, I never saw him again. I don't even know if Alice had told him that I was pregnant. He never came home.
"Oh my gosh!" I squealed and put Laila down, and hugged Edward. "I haven't seen you in so long. How are you?" I asked as I pulled away to look at him.
He just starred at me. He looked shocked. Then He looked at my daughter after looking at me.
I looked at her too then I looked at him smiling a shy smile. "Um...yeah um that's my daughter. Laila." He looked at me. His eyes bugged out.
"She-she is your daughter?" He asked in a hush voice. I smiled again
"Yeah, who knew one time was all it took." I laughed nervously. His eyes looked like they were going to fall out. But then he composed himself and went up to Laila and crouched down and put out his hand.
"Hi I'm Edward. What's your name?" I smiled. So he was okay with this. Thank God.
Laila smiled at him, "I'm Laila Alice Rosalie Swan. Pleased to meet you." She shook his hand. Damn she is so cute!
I laughed. Edward looked up at me with a smile and then looked at Laila, "Well it is certainly nice to meet you Laila Alice Rosalie Swan."
Laila giggled. "No! That's too long. Call me Laila!" She was laughing. I walked over to them. They were smiling at each other. I took a picture.
They both looked at me. Laila rolled her eyes at me. Edward looked at me, but I couldn't explain what it looked like. I shrugged my shoulders at him and laughed.
He laughed too. "So how have you been Bella?" He asked.
When he stood up I was shocked. Holy crow! He freaking grew since the last time I saw him. He looked at least to be 6'5.
I smiled at him, "Mighty fine, thank you." His smile grew wider, "How about you?"
He shrugged, "Pretty good. I just finished medical school, and now I'm working here."
Wow. I looked at him dumbstruck, "Wow, Edward. That's amazing!" I smiled at him, "Congratulations." I hugged him.
He laughed but hugged me close and sighed.
He pulled away, but held onto my waist, "And how about you?"
I smiled widely and moved out of hi grasp so that I could pick up my camera from the cart. "I just graduated from NYU with a bachelors degree and am now working at the newspaper here in Forks." I smiled.
He laughed and said, "That is wonderful. So you're a journalist."
"Obviously. And photographer. Hence the camera." I said
He rolled his eyes. "SO you graduated college, have a job and are a parent at such a young age too." His smile looked a bit forced at the last thing he said. I know my smile disappeared. "I have to say I am pretty impressed by how you managed."
I forced my smile now. "Why thank you Edward Cullen. I am so happy I have you blessing on how well I did." I walked past him picked up Laila and put her in the cart and started pushing it. "I guess I will see you around."
I was irrated by him. I knew he thought I made a mistake but seriously. he could have been sublte about it but no he had to say something.
I heard him call after me when I walked down the aisle, but I ignored him. I was too annoyed right now.
I went to the casher and bought the things I had. I wasn't even sure if I had all the stuff I needed. But I didn't care. I would get it another time. When he wasn't there.
Way to make my day.
