A Fated Love
Chapter 1 The Party
Disclaimer: just have them on loan. I own nothing, but a Jacob Black poster that I like to throw darts at. ;)
Flashback-
"Bells you really need to relax." Angela said dragging me to party giving by one of her boyfriends' friends. "For just one night"
"I know, I know" I mumbled being pulled through a door of a well decorated apartment too well decorated for any college student I know of. I would much rather be at home relaxing in sweatpants and a t-shirt from all of the studying I have done this year, than stumbling in shoes that are uncomfortable with strangers.
"Relax Bella it is just a party" giving me an aggravated eye roll after scanning the room for her boyfriend Ben.
Noticing the direction she was looking and spotted him standing with an intimidating look guy. Ben looked up and noticed us walking towards him and once he spotted Ang his face seemed to light up. Seeing the way that he looked at her warmed me to know that once I leave in a couple of weeks for my internship that she will have him.
"Well hello ladies" the intimidator said finishing his conversation with Ben.
"Hey Angela and Bella this is my friend Emmett he is the one throwing this party" at hearing our names Emmett face became friendly to a point where he did look so intimidating. Emmett has a kind face that is included with dimples, a head of short curly black hair, and a broad chest the size of a linebacker. "Emmett this is my girlfriend Angela Weber and her friend Bella Swan
As the others start to talk, I start to look around and notice a lot of familiar faces that I've seen through the years but never sparked up a conversation with. As I tried to gravitate back to Ang and Ben, over the shoulder of Emmett I saw him.
He had deep bronze hair that stood in perfect disarray, a strong jaw and perfect lips that held a crooked smile. As he started in our direction his eyes focused on me and I heard myself audibly gasp he had the most intense jade colored eyes pouring into me, as though he could see my soul.
"Hello" he smiled crookedly at the group and then stopping on me. I felt myself release a breath I didn't know I was holding at the sound of his voice.
"Hey guys this is my brother Edward the honoree...he starts his residency next month so we thought we would throw him his last shindig before he becomes all too important for us little people." Emmett said patting Edward on the back. Edward… something about just his name sends a shock to my brain that instantly makes me smile. "Ed this is Ben you know him of course with him is his girlfriend Angela Weber and her friend Bella Swan."
"Hello, nice to meet you" staring right at me with a crooked smile.
Did anyone else just realize how hot it is in here. Looking up in his emerald eyes it takes a minute to realize I had yet to speak.
"Hello" I meekly stuttered.
Realizing I was still standing there ogling this Green eyed God, I slowly pulled away from Ang in search of the kitchen for something to take my mind off where I am and whom I was talking too. As I found my way into the kitchen, I take in the table full of drinks; beer, beer, vodka and more beer, oh so many choses. Looking around the table and I grab a bottle of water and a beer and head out.
As I sip on my beer I start to take in my surroundings. The apartment was very well decorated, very masculine and contemporary. I noticed a room that is less crowded and have a sit and listen to the slow mummer of the noise coming from the outside of the room.
With my head leaned back and my eyes closed I could hear and feel him before I saw him.
"So this is where you are hiding" he says stepping closer into the room with a crooked smile in place.
"Just looking for a bit of peace and quiet" I say looking in his reflective eyes "So I guess congratulations are in order"
"Huh" he said looking at me quizzically.
"Your residency" I looked at him curiously. 'Huh' seriously is his only response.
"Oh yeah it's nothing" he said sheepishly looking me in the eye. "I hear that you graduate this year was well congrads"
"Yeah English and American Lit" I say noticing that it was so comfortable to talk to him, and was slowly coming up with ways to keep him talking just so I could hear his velvety voice.
"'Will I set up my everlasting rest, and shake the yoke of inauspicious stars, from this world-wearied flesh. Eyes, look your last arms take your last embrace and lips o you the doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss'" he breathe looking me so deep in my eyes that everything around faded into nothing but me and him. Seriously could this man become anymore perfect.
"..Shakespeare" I say relaxing further in his presence more than I ever thought I would. He looked in my eyes as he sat on the couch next to me, what he was looking for there I have no clue but I could slowly feel myself opening up for him.
"You are so beautiful Bella" his breath just an inch away from my face. His hypnotizing scent was dazzling me from further coherent speech.
Maybe it was the beer working or my own imagination going crazy, but I leaned in further and let my lips touch his lips softly. The fact that I really did not know this man had yet to ring any bells in my head. As my lips touched his I felt an electric current run through my body and stop right between the moistness he was definitely causing between my legs.

Okay if I take a deep breath and close my eyes maybe this will all turn out to be a horrible nightmare…
Breathe
Breathe
Nope not likely they are all still there, all five boxes and ten stick –that took an immeasurable amount of urine on my part-that all say the same thing "pregnant"….
"No"
"No"
"No" this is not how I expected to start my new life, this was not the plan.
Not my plan at all. I was supposed to attend college at Northwestern graduate with my masters' degree in American and English Literature and intern at a good editorial company. What am I going to do I cannot be a mother; I don't know how and on top of that a single mother. My own mother not being the greatest example, not saying Renee was a horrible mother just that I was more of the mother in this relationship, she was just a bit flighty to say the least but I love her none the less.
"Oh My God" my mother how is she going to respond to this, thinking of my mother only leads me to thinking of my father he is going to be so disappointed in me. How will I handle the look in his eyes when he sees me, his little girl returning home pregnant not knowing even the last name of her child's father or how to find him. Charlie is so not going to like this.
Rubbing my stomach looking in the mirror I wondered how I could be so careless so irresponsible. Peering down at my stomach trying to see if I could see any difference and stopped noticing the slight pug of my abdomen that was never there before, now seeing I slide my hand across the bulge a felt an intense feeling of protectiveness for my unborn child.
My unborn child.
