Okay, so, people reviewed and said that they wanted me to make this into a story. So I am. The very first chapter was just a rough draft, to see if anyone would read it. So, here ya go.

Ring….

Ring….

Ring….

Esme's voice came to, but it was the machine.

This is the Cullens. Leave a message and we'll call you back as soon as possible! Bye!

Beeeep

I sighed before I started talking.

I hoped they would understand.

"Hi, it's me, Bella. Bella Swan? Listen, I'm sorry I left suddenly all those years ago. But I had a good reason. I went to the doctors yesterday… and…" I started tearing up and crying into the phone. "… I don't have much time left. I guess you guys aren't there or just don't want to talk to me. But you need to. Please call me back. This is important. Very important."

I hung up the phone. What was I thinking? They'd never call back. They have probably forgotten me and who I was by now. I was just one of the many girls Edward went out with. I was nobody. But, I had unprotected sex with him, and it resulted in a pregnant seventeen, almost eighteen year old. I left Forks because I didn't want to burden Edward with the money, and I didn't want to burden Charlie with the shame of a pregnant daughter that was still in high school. So, I took the easy route, the safe route. I left.

I never planned on telling Edward, or my dad. I haven't even told my mom. I cut off all connections with my old life, and focused on my new one with Renesmee and trying to be normal.

Edward had dreams, and having to raise a daughter would crush those dreams.

I was going to live with my daughter, in our cramped apartment that I could barely afford to keep under my name each month until I got my degree next year.

But now, I'm dying. I wouldn't ever get my degree. I wouldn't provide my daughter with a nice home. The Cullens could, but I couldn't.

But, if the Cullens never call back Renesmee will never meet her other family. She'd be put into a foster home. And the Cullen's would never know.

I sighed and sat down on the couch, wincing when I hit my bruise. I'd barely hit the door frame, but I got one anyway.

I had cancer. And the doctors said I came too late. The cancer spread and it was terminal.

I only had, at most, 6 months left to live.

EPOV

My family, Tanya, and I came back home after going out to dinner, and started to watch TV, when I noticed we had a message from an unfamiliar number.

"Carlisle, can you mute the TV real fast? We have a message."

He muted it, so I turned the volume up and heard a voice I never expected to hear again.

"Hi, it's me, Bella. Bella Swan? Listen, I'm sorry I left suddenly all those years ago. But I had a good reason. I went to the doctors yesterday… and…" We could hear her start to tear up and crying into the phone. "… I don't have much time left. I guess you guys aren't there or just don't want to talk to me. But you need to. Please call me back. This is important. Very important."

My family and I sat in silence. Tanya, my girlfriend, didn't know about Bella, so she was confused.

"Should we call her back?" Alice said after a minute.

Esme nodded slowly, as if she couldn't believe Bella called either.

"Alright…" I picked up the phone and pressed call back.

It rang for two rings, the she picked up the phone.

"Hello?" He voice was still angelic like it used to be, just a little tired.

"Bella? It's me, Edward. You're on speaker."

"Hi everyone…" she said quietly, nervous.

I opened my mouth to speak, but Alice grabbed the phone and put it on the table and spoke.

"Bella?! How could you leave us like that? We loved you!" Alice started crying, her and Bella were best friends most of our lives. She cried into Jasper's shirt.

"I'm really sorry, but I had to." I could tell Bella was trying not to cry on the other end. She was failing.

Rosalie, pissed, picked up the phone and spoke in the coldest voice I've ever heard. "No. You didn't. So I guess you never really loved Edward huh? Decided that since you'd had sex with the most popular guy in school, you'd leave and brag about it and wouldn't hurt anyone. Well I got news for you Bella. You hurt us. EVERYONE. How do you live with yourself? Knowing that Edward was in love with you and then you just up and leave. Without a trace. What are you calling for? Telling us you're sorry just so you can get back into Edward's pants?!" Satisfied, she set the phone back down on the table.

Bella started bawling on the other end. She took a few breaths before answering. "I k-know. I didn't leave by ch-choice. I loved him too. I kn-knew he wanted to be a doctor, and I wouldn't hold him b-back."

This time, I picked up the phone. I spoke in a soft tone, the one I had used when we were together and she was upset. "Bella, nothing you could have done would hold me back. I would have helped you no matter what."

"I knew you'd say that, so I left without telling you. To make it easier. A clean-slate."

Esme, remembering something picked up the phone. "Bella, what did you mean you don't have much time left?"

"I… I went to the doctor's yesterday about some pain in my lungs. I've had it for awhile but figured it would just go away… but when they took an X-ray, they found I had cancer. It's too far along to be taken out and have me still live. They said I have about six months at most to live."

My family and I were still, when Tanya reached over and grabbed the phone from Esme. "Why did you call then? We didn't know, and we would have been just fine. Just go die already and leave us alone."

"But I need to tell you something! Edward I need you to take care of Renesmee, our daug—" Tanya hung up before we heard the rest.

Was Bella going to say daughter?

She was dying and we possibly have a daughter together…

THERE! So, it's not drastically different than the first, but I made some changes to make it flow better with how I'm planning it out.

I won't be updating this as much as my other current story, Finding Beauty within the Beast, because I need to finish that one before I can turn my main focus on anything else.
