Edwards's cold hands graced my face
Edwards's cold hands graced my face. He kissed my cheek.
"Wake up Bella. It's past noon"
I opened my eyes and smiled. I reached up and put my hands around his neck, an pulled him down for our much magical passionate kiss."
"Well hello," he said grinning. "I take it your not still mad at me?"
"How can I stay mad at you?"
I was a changed person. I was married-and pregnant. The only thing that didn't happen which I wanted to very soon-was me becoming a vampire. But I wanted to wait for my baby to be born-our baby to be born.
Edward bent down and kissed my stomach.
"How is Edward Jr.?" he cooed.
"I think not!" I frowned.
"Aw come on Bella…you know im kidding." I blew the strands of hair from my face and rolled out of bed.
"So…Alice called. Are you going to be ready by one?" he asked with a smile.
"For?"
"The baby shower-you so kindly let Alice plan." I rolled my eyes at him. "Come on Bells, it's the least you could do for her!"
"Whatever. I'll be ready." I slid my hoodie over my head. Suddenly Edward's cold hands were on my bare back. He leaned into me and whispered in my ear.
"I love your soft skin. I love you. I am so happy we are together. I love you." He was feeling my belly. Just than, the baby kicked. Edward's voice got higher.
"That's our baby!"
"Yes it is!" I said laughing. "He knows his Daddy."
"He?"
"Um well yeah we don't know…my mother swears up and down she knows it's a boy though. But can I please finishing getting ready?" I asked facing him.
"Of course."
I reached over and kissed him again. Our kisses never lost their magic-never lost their passion-which made me crave his lips even more.
I slipped off my pants and kicked them to the side. I glanced at myself in the mirror. I loved my pregnant belly. It was almost perfect. But I was anticipating the arrival of my baby. I was so curious at what he or she would look like. I slipped on my maternity jeans and a black sweater. I pulled my hair up and looked at myself again.
"Honey…I have to say one thing…I sort of miss being skinny."
Edward looked at me with a scowl.
"What? Your going to be disappointed when im not fat?"
He laughed.
"Your gorgeous love."
Suddenly my cell phone rang. I didn't recognize the number.
"Hello?"
"Bella-its Jacob." Jacob! I hadn't spoken to him since my wedding night. I thought it would never be again!
"Jacob? Oh my god! Hey! What's up? Wow it's so good to hear fro-"
Edward snatched the phone from my hands.
"Jacob? WHAT are you doing calling Bella…" he began to rant.
I grabbed my phone back and shoved him out of the way as I walked out of the room.
"Is everything ok?"
"Um…no…you should probably come to the hospital….like now…"
"What's wrong?? Are you hurt? Are you-"
"No Bella. Listen something's happened to your dad." My heart stopped. I looked around for Edward. He was probably pissed I shoved him and was talking to Jacob.
"Edward-" I choked. "Jacob-what happened?"
"I don't think you should find out over the phone…"
"TELL ME!!" I screamed. "THIS IS MY GOD DAMNED FATHER!" I screamed. I heard Jacob swallow hard.
"He was shot 13 times by an escaped convict."
My world suddenly went black
