Bella's POV

I pull into Sheetz parking lot and wait for Alice. 10 minutes later she's pulls up in her Yellow Porsche. She jumps out of the vehicle and gives me a big hug.

"I've missed you Bella." She says with a smile.

"I've missed you too, Alice. So are you going to tell me what the hell people were breaking into my house?" I ask her.

"That's not really important right now. It was just a couple of drunk assholes. They probably thought that the house was still deserted. I'm just glad that you made it outside in time."

"So...What brings you back?"

"It was time. Edward had forbid me to see you. I hated him for leaving like he did. He should've explained the real reason why he left."

"Real reason? Alice. Edward doesn't want me. He became bored with me."

"That's not true..." She stopped. "Bella is there something you would like to share with me?" she asked looking at my belly.

"What..? How...how do you know? I'm barely even showing!" I gasped out shocked as hell.

"I can hear the heart beat. How far along are you?" She asks.

"Eleven weeks."

"How is that possible?" she asked out loud. I know she was just thinking out loud.

"Well, I was hoping you would tell me. Because I was under the impression vampires can't have children."

"I never thought that it was possible." She admits. "We need to go see Carlisle."

"Alice, I'm trying to move on. I'm not trying to be rude or anything but I've been managing just fine on my own. College starts in three weeks. I'm not letting this pregnancy push back my plans. I need to do what's best for my child. I need an education and a good job."

"I understand that. But Bella that child is half vampire, it could kill you. We don't know what will happen. You shouldn't be going to a human doctor that's for sure. What if something unexplained happens?"

"I've already thought about that. And there was really nothing that I could do because the only non-human doctor that I know had up and left. Everything seems to be normal. The doctor has no concerns over the baby and it's growing just fine. There's nothing to worry about." I'll admit I've had these fears but I knew that I was not going to have an abortion. It's the only thing I have of Edward. I have to be optimistic. If I wasn't meant to have this child I wouldn't be pregnant.

"Let's get you home. I'm sure the police have taken care of them by now."

She follows me to the appartment. The police were leaving just as we were arriving. I get out of my car and wait for her. We walk up to door together and sure enough the door has been kicked in. "Great." I sigh as I push the door open and see my house pretty much destroyed. Glass was shattered everywhere and splinters of wood littered the floor.

"Why the hell do people do shit like this?" I ask out loud. I carefully step around the glass and head for the closet to grab the broom and dust pan. Alice stops me.

"Here, let me clean up. Go ahead and go to bed. You look exhausted."

I hesitate going upstairs. I look at her.

"Don't worry, I'll be here when you wake up."

I trudge up the stairs while a yawn escapes thru my lips. I reach the top of the stairs and the mess continues. I carefully step around the mess and make it to my bedroom, which thankfully was untouched. I slip in under the sheets and start to drift of to sleep. Half asleep I heard voices coming from downstairs. Jasper must be here I thought as I drifted into a deeper sleep._

Alice's POV

"Edward, leave her be. Wait until tomorrow. She's going thru alot right now and needs her sleep. " Edward starts pacing back and forth.

"Is she okay? How did she seem. Was she happy? Sad? Confuse?" he asks me his face contorted with a mixture of emotions.

"Slow down. You need to get a hold of yourself. When you speak to her tomorrow, you do your best not to upset her anymore than you're already going to."

"What do you mean?"

"You'll have to ask her. It's not my place to say. It's between the two of you. And before I forget." I walk towards him and punch him in the face.

"Oww. What the hell was that for?" he asks stunned that I just hit him. I've never hit him before.

"For taking her virginity and then leaving like you did. Because you sure as hell left that part out."

"She told you that?"

"Not exactly." I knew I needed to keep my mouth shut and my thoughts on different things. Jasper...Jasper...Jasper...Jasper...

"Alice that's not fair!"

"Yes it is." I chirped back.
