Chapter 4

"Ah Tanya, that was great." Edward said as he rolled off the blonde.

Smiling she replied, "Aw Edward it's always great." after a minute or two Tanya spoke again, "you've been a bit odd for the past month, its great that you've finally come back." Tanya said as her fingers trailed up Edwards arm.

Glancing at his watch Edward rose from the bed, "Tanya I've got to go. This was great and all so I'll call you." Edward said as he picked up his clothes he had thrown around last night.

"Bye Eddy. Cant wait till I see you next." Tanya said, as she admired his strong, chiselled back.

After dressing, Edward picked up his phone, wallet and keys, before walking out of Tanyas' apartment.

Hopping into his car he drove to work thinking about last night.

Edward and Tanya had an understanding or agreement. What they had was nothing more that sex. Which was great when Edward needed attention, but they never saw each other when either one of them was seeing someone, which was very rear.

Parking his Volvo, Edward headed for the building. (Edward's office is in a building where the owner rents out offices, so there are different companies in the one building. Just to let you know.) Handing his ID to the security he headed for the elevators.

"Morning Miss Brandon." Edward said walking through the doors labelled, 'Cullen Apartments'.

Looking up from her redecorating, Alice greeted her boss, "Morning Mr Cullen, you had a call from Mr Stone about the remodelling of your-"

"Yes I know, thanks Alice." Edward said walking into his office and began to check his mountain of e-mails. "Another day at work," he said before diving in.

Mean while Alice was still redecorating her desk when the one and only love of her life walked in, "Morning Jas- Mr Cullen." Alice gushed.

Looking in the assistance directing Jasper nodded, before walking into his brothers' office. Leaving poor Alice feel a little rejected.

"Jasper wha- Wow you don't look so good." Edward said dropping his pen onto his desk.

"Don't mention it Edward, I've got the biggest hangover and I don't think I'll be able to make it to the meeting at the new club." mumbled Jasper.

"What? Jasper you're the one whose I idea it was to bye to new club, you've got to go. I've got enough work on my plate and I don't need more." Edward cried, getting a bit pissed now.

'Agh brothers' thought Jasper, then for about the next 20 minutes everyone on the floor could hear them arguing like children.

Going back to her seat Alice sent off a few e-mails before Jasper stormed out of Edwards' office and marched into his. 'Poor thing,' Alice tut tutted.

"Miss Brandon what meetings do I have today?" Edward demanded walking into room and heading for the coffee machine.

"None sir. Only one in the afternoon." Alice replied reaching for her notebook then she accidentally knocked over a photo of her and Bella.

"Oops," Alice said walking around her desk to pick it up, but before she could Edward looked over and caught sight of Bella.

Something about that picture rang a bell. Walking towards Alice's' desk, where she had now placed the picture, Edward turned the frame around so he could look closer at the person with Alice.

"Alice who is this person you're with?" Edward asked, while staring intently at the photo.

"That's my friend Bella. Why?" Alice asked nonchalantly, not really paying attention to Edward.

Edward looked at the delicate features on woman's' face. Brown chocolate eyes, fair skin, light brown hair, due to the sunset behind the women and a smile that Edward had only ever seen on one woman.

DONG! Went the bell in Edwards mind. This was the girl who he had looked a month for. The girl he had spent the next month trying to forget. The girl who had hurt him, more than he ever thought a woman could, when she hadn't left her phone number.

'Ha ha, now I've found you!' Edward thought evilly.

Going for a casual manner Edward asked, "So what was your friends name again?"

"Bella." was all Alice said, preoccupied with her work.

Not happy with Alice's reply Edward pushed for more, "Bella hey, is that short for something? What does she do for a living?"

"Yes, it's actually Isabella Swan and she works for a publishing company." Alice said still not getting the picture.

"Isabella Swan, pretty name for a pretty girl." Edward reflected aloud, "Does she live with you?"

Having heard his previous remark about her friend, Alice looked up for the first time and saw that Edward still held her picture and was staring at it intently.

"Edw- Sir are you interested in Bella?" Alice asked curiously.

Trying not to give away his true feelings Edward replied, "Well Alice I'm not sure what you mean by interested, but I think that Bella is…" he trailed off as he was unable to come up with something that wouldn't get Alice suspicious.

'He wants to sleep with Bella!' Alice assumed.

"Mr Cullen, if you were planning on seducing my friend and sleep with her, there is no point in trying. I found out a week ago that Bella is pregnant and if you did want to sleep with her you'd have to wait a very long time. Not that she'd sleep with you anyway." Alice warned, happy with her statement.

Edward on the other hand wasn't listening, he had dropped out when Alice said Bella was pregnant. 'She did have a boyfriend and still slept with me' he thought furiously, "So she has a boyfriend." He said feeling jealousy rise.

Alice was a little confused, "A boyfriend? Bella hasn't had one for a year, how do you know she's got a boyfriend?" Alice asked, feeling hurt that her friend hadn't told her she had gotten a boyfriend, and curious as to how her boss found out before her.

"What I don't know, but she must have if she's pregnant." Edward said, beginning to get confused himself.

"Oh! Well she doesn't, but…" Alice tried off, not sure on her bosses' opinion of illegitimate children.

"Well what? Alice is she… married?" Edward reluctantly asked.

Edward was acting weird, Alice thought before explaining, "Well she's not seeing anyone and she is not married," to Edwards great relief, "she had a one-night stand with some guy she had meet at your party about 2 months ago and you can guess the rest." Alice said.

Edward was running though all the information Alice had just given him. Bella single, one night stand with stranger, met at party 2 months ago and now she's pregnant. 'Oh god, I could be the father, unless'

"I had thrown 3 parties two months ago, which party was it?" Edward demanded.

"Um the one held at Vampires." Alice said a little worried, "Why?"

Ignoring her question Edward continued, "So she got pregnant from that guy she met at Vampires right?"

"Yes, but wh-"

"So she's pregnant, does she plan on telling the father?" Edward asked, as he began to feel the anger rise within him.

Shocked at her bosses' reaction Alice shook her head, "Bella said that she'd prefer raising the child on her own because of what happened to her parents-" Alice stopped, when she realised she may have said to much.

Snapping his head up Edward asked, "So what happened to her parents? What caused her to use it as an excuse to leave the father out of his kids' life." feeling the anger and frustration boil together. He had looked for Bella and thought about her non-stop for two months, and now he's found her pregnant with his child.

"Sir are you okay? You seem a bit fired up over my friends' issues." Alice felt the need to point out. Obviously her boss had strong opinions on illegitimate kids. 'There's something you'd never think he'd care about,' Alice thought surprised.

"Where is she?!" Edward asked. Looking at Alices' confused expression he elaborated, "Where is Bella at this moment?" he said, taking deep breaths.

Shocked at his question Alice remained silent.

"Alice." Edward said in a calm tone, but Alice, who had worked for him for a while now, knew that when he called her by her first name he was mad.

"Mr Cullen, why do you want to know?" Alice asked.

Losing his head, Edward screamed, "BECAUSE SHE LEFT ME WITHOUT ANY WAY OF FINDING HER AND NOW I HAVE I WANT TO SEE HER AND SHAKE SOME SENCE INTO HER!"

When Alice didn't reply Edward said, "Miss Brandon if you don't tell me where she is I will fire you and make sure you never work for a high paying job again!"

At this Alice scribbled down the address of Bellas apartment and handed it to Edward who snatched it out of her hands.

"Thankyou and cancel my meeting for this afternoon, reply to e-mails that do not need my attention and if anyone calls me tell them to get lost." Edward said before storming out of the office, leaving a stunned/shocked Alice in his wake.
