Bella's POV

" Ms. Cullen, Emmett and Toby are here to see you.", my receptionist, Angela tells me. I smile politely at her.

" Send them in.", I tell her. She nods and heads back out to the reception area. Emmett walks back with a sobbing Toby. I rush out of my seat and grab my baby boy. He clings onto me tightly. .

" Emmett, what the hell happened? I told you to take care of him!", I growl. Emmett looks at the floor.

" He's here, Bells. Toby ran into him and he put the pieces together. I couldn't do anything! I swear I got him out of there as soon as possible!", I see tears fill Emmett's eyes.

" Who?", I ask confused. Emmett licks his lips and takes a deep breath before answering me.

" Edward, he ran into Edward and it was all my fault. I wasn't paying attention and he ran away with that stupid ass dog. I guess he tripped in front of Edward's house. Edward walked him back to me and, and Toby heard his name. I'm so sorry Bella. I never meant for this to happen.", Emmett presses his palms to his eyes. I hold onto Toby tighter.

Edward? Here in Florida? I took this job because of him. I wanted distance! I never wanted him to meet Toby. How do I deal with this now? What am I going to tell my son? I can't let my baby get hurt like I did. Edward, the man I was madly in love with, didn't want me. Why would he want the child we created together? Then again, how could someone not want a child as sweet as Toby?

" Emmett, what if he tries to take him from me? I need my baby. Edward...Edward is nothing to him. He didn't want me, he wanted her.", I cry. Toby clings to me tighter. I run my fingers through his hair and kiss his forehead.

" I don't know Bells, I just don't know. Um, I need to get home to Rosie. Do you wanna keep him here?", He asks. I nod my head. Emmett says goodbye and heads out. Toby goes and plays with the toys I have here for him. Angela walks in and sees my baby.

" You're six o'clock is here. Want me to send her in? I could just tell her that it's not a good time.", Angela offers. I shake my head.

" No, go ahead and send her in. Tobias, you will behave yourself.", I tell him strictly. He looks up from his coloring book and nods at me. A few minutes later, my second worst nightmare walks in. She sees me and her mouth drops. I look down at my copy of her book, Tanya Masen.

" Mrs. Masen, welcome to Volturi Publishing.", I put on my best fake smile. My little boy's head shoots up at the last name. I look over at him and shake my head.

" Isabella, what a surprise. Didn't think I'd be seeing you again.", Tanya sneers.

" Well, Tanya you did choose me as your editor. Though I don't know why you need one. I'll be honest with you, this is a piece of garbage. There are so many grammar and spelling mistakes it looks like five year old did it. How it even ended up on my desk to be edited is a mystery to me.", I growl. Tanya glares and sits across from me.

" Maybe because unlike you I have talent.", She grins.

" Talent? You spelled, "regrets" wrong. In case you didn't know, there is no "A" in regrets.", I smirk at her. She glares back at me.

" That is what you are for, to fix my mistakes. I'm a writer and you're being payed to look at my success.", she taunts. I snort.

" Obviously you haven't done your homework. I have three best selling novels and a fourth coming out in September. I only edit because I was given an opportunity to further my career. I have a very succesful children's book series as well.", I cross my arms over my chest. Out of the corner of my eye I see Toby crossing and uncrossing his legs.

" Sweetheart, you can go to the bathroom. Please come straight back though. Do not make a pit stop at Seth's desk for candy, I will find out. I don't want you spoiling your dinner.", I tell him. Tanya has just noticed him. Her mouth drops.

" Well, well, well... Would you look at that. Never expected you to get knocked up.", she chuckles evilly once Tobias leaves.

" Well, I did. Luckily he's the sweetest little boy I've ever met.", I smile slightly.

" At least Edward got what he wanted.", Tanya sighs angrily. My head shoots up.

" No, he didn't. He's my son, no one elses. I've raised him on my own. And what do you mean that he got what he always wanted?", I sneer at her.

" Edward's been pressuring me for a kid. At least I didn't have to get fat like you did.", She winks at me for some reason. Toby enters again with chocolate all over his face. I motion him over.

" Tobias Edward Cullen, what did I tell you about stopping at Seth's desk for candy?", I ask him. His gaze never wavers.

" Momma, I didn't stop at Seth's desk for candy. I promise!", He smiles lightly.

" Mhm, then where did you get candy from?", I cross my arms.

" Momma, Angela let me have some chocolate. Only a little bit though. She told me not to tell you cause she didn't want us both to get in trouble. It was yummy Momma! I'm sorry! I won't eat any more candy, ever again. Ever ever ever again!", tears fill his eyes. I wipe them away and kiss his forehead.

" Alright sweety, but next time, you need to ask me first. Got it? Go play.", he heads off to the coloring books again and sits down. Tanya and I are fed up with each other and we finish the meeting quickly.

I take Toby home and get him fed, bathed and to bed. I sit down in my room for about half an hour before dozing off to sleep. I'm awoken at four am to a loud banging on my front door. Tobias is clutching his teddy bear with a scared look on his face. I tell him to stay upstairs and I grab my pepper spray. I throw the door open and growl at who is standing before me.

" What in the hell do you think you're doing here? At four in the fucking morning, in fact.", I sneer. Edward runs a hand through his hair.

" I couldn't sleep. I had to find you and...And find out if I'm...If I'm a father.", he stutters out.

" You aren't, you never were.", I growl. He looks at me with hard eyes.

" How old is your son Bella? Is he five? Because if he is, I want a fucking DNA test. I want to see my son.", He glares at me. I look up the stairs to make sure Toby isn't there.

" He's my son, Mine. You weren't there! You don't get to be here now!", I'm trying to keep my voice down but it isn't working.

" I never had the chance to be there! I didn't know about him, you never told me! You just moved across the country taking my kid with you!", He yells. Toby hears and comes downstairs.

" Momma? Momma what's going on?", he sniffles. I glare at Edward before turning and picking Toby up.

" Nothing baby, c'mon, let's get you back to bed." I kiss his forehead as I carry him up the stairs. I tuck him back in and head back downstairs. Edward is looking at the pictures on the walls. I see a tear fall down his cheek.

" I've missed my son's whole life because you were pissed at me. I didn't get to hold him as a baby, or help him walk or, fuck, even see you pregnant. I'm being punished because you are mad. He has no father because you're mad.", Edward grits out.

" Would you really have accepted him? You didn't want me, you thought our night together was a mistake. How could I thrust a baby onto you? I couldn't let my baby get hurt the way I did. All you cared about was Tanya and how she was feeling! What about me Edward? Did you even care about how I was feeling? Of course you didn't. If Tanya's not alright, the whole world isn't right."

" I want to be there Bella. I don't want to miss any more milestones. I want to be his father.", his eyes feel like they're staring straight into my soul.

" I don't trust you. I'm sorry but...I can't trust you with my baby. Not when you broke my heart and you could possibly break his. I think you should leave. Please, it's...Well it's early and MY son has school at eight.", I push him out the front door.

" You can't keep me from my son Bella, you'll be hearing from my lawyers.", He growls before getting into his car and peeling out of my driveway. I feel the tears fall down my face and sobs erupt from my chest. Am I doing the right thing? Should I let Edward see Toby?
