I realised that I didn't put whose P.O.V. it was, it was Bella's, which was probably very obvious. I guess so , thanks to Insanityisgood25 for being the first, and second, to review :P

Bella P.O.V.
I stumbled out into the hall. Edward was holding me in his arms "Ch-Charlie hates me, d-doesn't he?" I sobbed into Edwards's granite chest.
"Shh Silly Bella! Nobody hates you, how could anyone hate someone as beautiful as you!" he must honestly be joking, I thought, I felt anything but beautiful, particularly the tear streaked mess I was at the moment, I felt like a monster, the kind Edward could never be, the kind that would tear out her father's heart and cut him out from the rest of her life.
"He doesn't want me anymore, he told me to get out, he yelled at me,"
I guess I felt he should hate me, after everything I'd put him through; the screaming and nightmares when Edward left, how I'd hurt him by forgiving Edward for leaving me, and finally agreeing to marry him, all in the past year, knowing that I would be leaving him in a few short months, never to be seen again.
"Isabella Marie Swan," Edward said sternly, forcing me to look in to his steadying topaz eyes, "Charlie still wants you, of course he does, he is your father and loves you very much; he just needs a little bit of time to get over the shock, of you marrying, well, me." I heard the pain in his velvet voice, a fresh wave of guilt swept over me, first Jacob, Edward, Charlie and Edward again! Why couldn't I stop hurting the people I loved?
I forced myself to stop my sobbing, we were out by the car now; I hadn't noticed that we were still walking. Edward pulled me into his arms fully and kissed me fiercely, he didn't seem to mind the tears on my cheeks. As I looked into his wonderful eyes I began to forget why I was so upset, I forgot about Charlie, I forgot about Jacob and only thought of how much I loved Edward, my fiancé, that word still felt strange to me, and of how this time in about 2 months, we would be married, in to months I would Mrs Edward Cullen…
As usual Edward pulled away too soon for my liking, he had done what he had wanted; he had successfully distracted me.
"Come on, love, we should get you home" he said, pulling me into my truck. I nodded still a bit breathless to form coherent sentences, only vaguely realising the implications of his words.
I stayed the night at Edwards, wanting to give Charlie as much space as possible. I spent the whole night without crying. Edward must have been amazed. Alice was excited, what a surprise, but she was sympathetic to how I was feeling and assured me that in 49 hours Charlie would be overjoyed for me. 49 hours seemed a long way a way.
I decided to risk going back home on Wednesday, to say that Charlie was overjoyed would be an overstatement but he was definitely better than the man I'd seen leaving the room the days ago. He said he was happy that I was happy and asked if I'd told Renée, I avoided that question and backed up the stairs to go sit in my room alone, I had thought it might be easier for Charlie if he didn't see Edward right now.
I was just putting my headphones into my CD player so I could listen to may favourite CD, the one Phil had got me two years ago, when there was a gentle knock on my door and Charlie's head poked through the door frame, "do you mind if we talk for a sec Bells?" he asked
"Sure Dad" I sighed putting my headphones away and preparing myself for what was sure to be a very awkward conversation.
"So, you are getting married," way to state the obvious Charlie, I thought, "Is this really what you want to do?"
"Yes dad, I'm sure" I sighed
"But don't you think you're rushing into things a little too quickly?" he persisted.
"Dad, just because you and Renée didn't work out doesn't mean we can't." Charlie winced and I felt bad, my dad still harboured feelings for my mum after nearly 18 years. "Sorry dad, that didn't come out right, didn't think of what I was saying" I rushed trying to not upset him "it's just you saw what happened last September, Edward and I simply just can't survive without each other, we've tried dad, but as we can't it just seemed as if there was no point delaying it, I just hope you can please, please understand and accept this is happening" I just stared at my walls hoping that I hadn't upset Charlie again; last September wasn't exactly something either of us liked to think about. After what seemed like an eternity he finally spoke "I guess I can see where you're coming from it's just you're only 18 and you'd be leaving me to be with, well, another 18 year old." I actually had to suppress a laugh, I wondered if it would make Charlie feel better if he new I was going to live with an almost-110 year old vampire?
"You know I'll be right with Edward and next year we'll be going to college in Alaska and then who knows what could happen?" Charlie laughed, I loved it when he laughed; he always looked so much younger. "I know you'll be right, you've always been right on your own and Edward, he's always seemed so protective of you, you'll be safe with him." We both looked away awkwardly we were never ones for expressing our emotions. "Thanks Dad" I muttered.
"Well I'm just glad you told me, I'll get to say goodbye," Charlie got up to leave the room, "oh and by the way that looks ah – expensive" he said nodding to the ring on my left hand "he must have spent a fortune on you."
"Don't worry dad, it was his mothers." I said blushing.
"Oh okay, Goodnight then." he said closing the door behind him
"Goodnight Dad."
I lay back on my bed and groaned. Well at least that was over and no mention of telling Renée had come up. I put my headphones back in and tried to relax.
Hope you enjoyed that, review and I'll be sure to post again soon… :D
