Prologue

EDWARD'S POV

Carlisle smiled up at me, and then continued writing.

"Come on, you're killing me!" I exclaimed, jumping to my feet.

I already did that once.

I laughed, and sat back down, leaning forward in the seat.

"Please Carlisle, please! Bella will shoot me if I don't come back with the news soon!"

Carlisle laughed, and came to sit on the corner of his desk.

"Well first of all, the baby is healthy, and I'm confident that this one will not end the way that the last one did."

I shuddered, remembering Bella's awful miscarriage. I didn't want her to go through that again.

"Good."

He smiled.

"And the sex of the baby…"

I leaned in closer.

"Yes?"

"It's a girl."
