I leaned over the toilet, throwing up again. This is the fourth day in a row that I've had this strange morning sickness. I would blame it on Edward's dreadful absence, but he left me(and totally ruined my life, causing my world to totally collapse around me) about seven days ago, and the vomiting is only in the morning. I'm becoming concerned. I know it's suppose to be impossible, but ever since the night of my eighteenth birthday, when Edward and I broke all of his carefully laid boundaries, I've noticed a small bump beginning to form on my normally flat stomach. What if a human and a vampire could have a child? And now that Edward is gone, what would I do with a child? Clawing my way out of this dark pit of despair is going to be hard enough without the extra weight.
Yet, I can't help but feel love for this unborn baby; after all, it is Edward's offspring. Maybe I'll get to keep something of him after all. I'm getting ahead of myself now. There is probably nothing inside of me! At that thought, I felt a small nudge on my belly. I glanced down at my stomach, my eyes widening to the size of dinner plates. What was that?!
"Bells?" Charlie asks, his voice gruff, knocking on the bathroom door.
"I'm fine dad." I call back, quickly wiping my eyes to get rid of the tears that collected there at the thought of Edward's departure. I almost have to lean over the toilet again when I spring to my feet to brush my teeth. Rule number one of carrying a half-human half-vampire baby: No sudden movements. It's weird how easily I'm accepting my fate of having this vampire offspring. The affection I feel for it is amazing also.
"Are you sure your alright?" Charlie asks, obviously not comfortable with the idea of tending to his sick teenage daughter.
"I'm fine just give me some time." The annoyance of him ruining my train of thought shows. Charlie usually doesn't hover, that's the thing I love most about him, why does he have to now, the time when I REALLY don't want him to?
That's when I realize something. This child is growing at an incredibly fast rate. It's already weeks along in these few short days. And a half-human half-vampire child could be extremely dangerous. I can't put Charlie at that risk. I.. I… I have to leave. I have to get out of here. I have to protect my father and my baby. I have to find the Cullens.
