This story is going to be about Bella's children but for now I wanted to add some pre-history so that it would be easier to understand kids' actions and reactions later. Don't worry, it will only take two chapters.

Disclaimer for this chapter and the rest of the story: I own nothing, the rightful owners do.

So this is a pre-history, part one. Enjoy.


Once is an accident. Twice is a mistake. Anything more is a habit.

Never again. That's what I promised myself and this time I will stick to it.

Being hurt I can handle, but seeing my family hurt? You crossed the line.

My mom moved out of Forks when I was barely a baby. Sixteen years later I decided to give her freedom and come back to live with my dad. When I started going to local high school I fell in love with Edward Cullen and his adopted sister Alice became my best friend.

The first few months of our relationship were a bumpy ride. Each time I would think we were getting closer, he would push me away. When I learned about him being a vampire and made sure that it wasn't a problem with me, he seemed to relax a bit. Even after everything that happened with James we stayed close. That summer was the best I ever had.

Then my birthday came. And with it, a party. I was clumsy as usual and put everybody in danger. They all left after that. Almost five next months fell out of my life completely. It was as if they had never happened at all. My body lived on, but my mind was trapped in memories and excruciating pain. How ironic. After I almost killed myself, Alice came to ask for my help to save her brother. We went to Italy and when we came back Edward begged me to accept him back. He said he had made the worst mistake in his existence and I did think it was an accident. I forgave him.

A few weeks later during one of the many times I stayed at them Emmett almost crushed all my bones in one of his hugs. Edward got scared once again. They all left. But this time only for a few weeks. The weeks that never happened in my life. When they came back everything seemed to be normal again. We had our first and in the end the only night together. Once more I thought he understood that leaving me was a mistake. He just seemed a little distant from time to time.

Then he stopped showing me any kind of attention. They all acted as if I was a stranger. I couldn't understand that. After one of the weekends a new student Eva arrived. She was pretty, though unimaginably dumb. Edward started taking care after her. The first time I saw her, she was making out with him. That broke my heart, yet again. I started thinking he was making a joke of me, but I still loved him and couldn't help it.

At the beginning of the spring break I got into a car accident. They were all away, so they never found out. That day I lost my hearing. I had had a friend back in Phoenix who was deaf, so I knew ASL quite well and it used to be interesting for me to try and read people's lips. Interesting just became a necessity. Charlie handled it as well as he could, I kept talking so there wasn't much of a difference. I just became even quieter. When the school started again I was already quite good at reading lips and just kept my headphones on all the time. Teachers knew, but never told anyone and I was excused from P.E. Edward stayed close to Eva and that didn't help my mood at all. Even during the summer, they both took the same projects at school as I did. It only made things worse for me.

A few months after Eva came to Forks I felt different. I started feeling light-headed and nauseated. For the first time in months I grew on some weight. That could have meant only one thing.

Flashback

It was lunch at school. Edward was walking to wait in line for food.

"Edward! Wait!" I shouted and hurried to him. He looked annoyed.

"What do you want, Bella? Haven't you heard me before that I want to have nothing in common with? Are you deaf? Oh, right. But you are!" He started laughing and most of the students joined in. "You wanna talk? But I don't. I wouldn't talk to you even if you were pregnant with my child!" He glared at me.

End of flashback

Then, suddenly the world stopped spinning. Getting hurt myself I could handle, but then I understood that he just felt pleasure in my pain and his new way to get that was hurting my family. Though I couldn't understand how he knew I was pregnant. Maybe my scent had changed to him… I didn't care at that moment. I wasn't going to let my children know their father as a player. Nobody would be better for them than this.

So I ran. I got home and called mom. I left Forks the same afternoon barely saying goodbye to Charlie never to see him again.
