Hey people! In case you didn't know, this is the sequel to Living Hell, so I suggest reading that first if you haven't done so already.

Edward's POV

I opened the mailbox and took a look at the mail. I started flipping through them all, looking for one particular letter. Bill. Bill. Bill. Oh, hey, that's- never mind, it's just another bill. Bill. Bill. Dang! Since when did we get so many bills? I'm surprised we aren't in debt. Ah ha! I found the one I was looking for and closed the mailbox. I started back for the house as I opened the envelope.

Edward,

Hey, cuz! Long time no see! How's life up there in Spoons? Oh wait, it's Forks, isn't it? Oops, at least I noticed before I sent this.

Anyway, here's a copy of the birth certificate for our beautiful little Christina that you requested. I honestly hope you can come down here to Georgia some time soon; I'd love to finally meet this family of yours you keep bragging about. How about Thanksgiving?

Your favorite cousin,

Alex C.

I smiled; I hadn't seen my cousin Alex for... what?... ten years now? He used to live in Seattle and we saw his family all the time. It had been kind of confusing at first since we both had been named after our grandfather Edward and had the same name, but he decided to go by his middle name when we were four, which made things simpler. I'd have to ask Bella about our plans for Thanksgiving, but I was pretty sure we were free.

I pulled the second sheet out and looked at the information about my new second cousin. Alex had been married for five years now, but he and his wife, Susie, had been having complications with her getting pregnant and it never worked out. They finally had a successful pregnancy and now a healthy daughter, which I knew was a big deal for my cousin. I put the papers back into the envelope, birth certificate on top, and reached out for the door handle, about to open it, when I heard Bella from upstairs.

"Edward!" she yelled and I nearly broke down the door running inside. I threw the mail carelessly onto the couch and ran up the stairs to our bedroom.

"Bella?" I called in a worried tone.

"In here," she called from the bathroom. I ran there as fast as I could and ended up bumping into the wall. Bella laughed and I was confused. When she yelled my name, I thought she'd been hurt, or possibly angry, but that obviously wasn't the case.

"What is it, love?" She smiled and held up a little electronic stick proudly.

"I'm pregnant!" I felt a huge grin break across my face and I hugged her.

"That's great, sweet heart!"

"I know!" She pulled away. "I need to go call Alice!" I laughed as I watched my wife prancing excitedly to the phone to call my sister. Another baby. Wow. My phone beeped right then and I groaned when I realized it was time to go bowling with Jasper and Emmett. I wanted to be with Bella at the moment, but then I realized she'd probably be on the phone all day and I wouldn't even get a word in.

"Alice! Guess what?" Bella was saying into the phone. I waved good bye to her and she waved back as she went on about our new baby. I wondered how Nicky would take the news. Probably pretty well, considering the fact that she's always begging us for a little brother or sister, but six year olds were unpredictable. Especially this particular six year old.

Bella's POV

"Hello?" Alice answered after the second ring.

"Alice! Guess what?" I exclaimed.

"What?" she asked in an excited voice, obviously knowing this was something good. I waved goodbye to Edward as he left, then turned my attention back to the phone

"I'm pregnant!"

"Really? Wow, Bella, that's great!"

"I know! I'm so excited! So, how's your day been?" I started heading down the stairs to do something.

"Oh, it's been great! Lilly said "Dada" this morning at breakfast. Jazzy was ecstatic! He was excited when she said "mama" before, but I could tell he was still jealous." She started rambling on about her adorable little daughter while I looked for something to do. The dishes had already been done and there wasn't any dirty laundry. I finally settled on sweeping the kitchen floor, but that was soon done.

I tried going over different chores in my head as Alice talked about what her three year old son Johnny painted for Jasper. I remembered that Edward had been checking the mail a lot lately and decided I could go check the mail. It was a small job, but maybe I could get a few bills out of the way and possibly find what Edward has been waiting for. I'd asked him a few times what it was, but he just told me we'd discuss it when the time came. I could tell he tried hiding his excitement, but it was obvious.

The mailbox was empty, so I figured Edward must have brought the mail in before he left. I walked back inside and saw the mail in a pile on the couch. I sat down and started going through the pile.

"So how's Nicky been doing?" Alice asked.

"Good, good." I found a letter that had already been opened and I picked it up out of curiosity. "She brought home the cutest picture for me yesterday! It was one of Edward, Nicky, and I in-" I gasped suddenly when I had the letter open. It was a birth certificate for a little girl named Christina. She'd been born two months ago, but that's not what caught my attention. The mother was some lady named Susan Trand, but it was the father that had made me gasp. Edward A. Cullen.

What did this mean? Edward had been cheating on me with another woman? That didn't make any sense, but the birth certificate was right in front of me! We'll discuss this when the time comes. Edward's voice came back to me and it felt like my heart had been ripped in two. He had planned on telling me so we could get a divorce.

"Bella?" Alice's voice was frantic and I realized I was sobbing. "Are you okay?"

"No."

"What happened?"

"Can you come over here, Alice?" This was something I wouldn't be able to say over the phone.

"Of course. Do you want me to pick anything up for you?"

"No."

"All right. I'll see you in a few."

"Bye." I stared at the birth certificate through my tear filled eyes and remembered my own children. Would I be able to raise a new baby and a six year old on my own? Probably not, but there was no way I was going to let him take full custody over my children now that I knew what he did

There was a knock on the door and I got up to answer it. Alice stood in the doorway and gave me a hug when she saw my face. We stood there for a while, just sobbing into her arms and then I realized I needed Alice to know. She hadn't been prodding, for which I was grateful, but I knew she had to be curious. I pulled away from her and led the way to the living room.

We sat down next to each other on the couch with the pile of letters on it and I handed the birth certificate to Alice. She understood immediately and her mouth dropped open. She was staring at the paper in disbelief for a minute or so before setting it down to give me a hug.

"Oh my God, Bella, I'm so sorry! How could he do that to you? What a jerk!"

"Alice," I sobbed. "I think he wants to get a d-d-divorce with me. He's been so excited lately about something coming in the mail, but he never told me what it was. He said we'd discuss it when the time comes."

"Aw, sweetie, that man is crazy for ever even thinking about a woman besides you."

"I always knew he was too perfect for me."

"No way, Bella; don't you dare ever think like that, especially after what he's done. You're a loving, smart, beautiful woman and it's his loss." I decided not to argue about that, even though I completely disagreed.

"What am I going to do, Alice? What if he takes everything from me? What if he takes Nicky?" Losing my husband, my best friend, was bad enough; I couldn't bear to lose my baby girl also.

"We won't let that happen, Bella. There's only one thing we can do now."

"What's that?" I asked, curious as to what her answer might be.

"You have to get a divorce with him."

:O Oh no! What a terrible misunderstanding! What's going to happen now? Review and let me know what you think!
