Edward and I ate in a small Indian restaurant together before he took us down the road for coffee and cake. I insisted that the curry was filling enough but Edward wasn't having it, he said he rarely spoils me anymore and that wasn't right of him. So, here I was, in a small booth with Edward sharing a piece of chocolate fudge cake.

"Thanks for taking me out. I don't deserve it at all… I've been a bitch," I said, leaning my head against his shoulder.

"No you haven't, you've never been a bitch in our entire relationship," he said, kissing me on my head.

"Mhmm."

"Jasper's been annoying the shit out of me because I keep forgetting to ask you about how Alice feels about their relationship."

"About what in particular?" I asked.

"Well he was thinking about asking her if she wanted to move in together but didn't want her to think they were moving too fast."

"Oh my gosh! He should totally ask her, there's no way she'd say no."

"Okay, he'll be pleased to hear." We finished our cake and headed home. I was so happy to have spent some time with Edward somewhere other than our house and felt much better about everything with Tanya as well as feeling closer to Edward. Once we got home, we headed upstairs where I collapsed on top of the bed.

"I'm so full," I said, grabbing my bloated stomach. Edward grinned at me and took off his shirt, laying it on top of a chair. He came and lay next to me, pulling me into his arms. I leaned up onto my elbow and looked down at him smiling up at me. I leaned down and kissed him, threading my fingers into his hair. Edward grabbed my ass and rolled us over, leaning over me.

"I love you so much," he said, pushing my dress up.

"I love you too," I said, wrapping my legs around his waist. He grabbed them and spread them again so he could get up and take off his trousers, whilst he did that I pulled off my dress and underwear but he was soon back in his place. Moments later, he was thrusting in out of me whilst sucking on my left nipple.

"Ohh, fuck… Edward," I breathed. He tightened the grip he had around my hips and went deeper. Soon my breaths were coming out in short gasps and I was cumming hard. A few minutes later Edward came too and we both collapsed, panting. I rolled over until my head was on his chest and kissed his chest, running my hand up and down his chest. After a while of just laying together, we got up to use the bathroom before cuddling in bed before we fell asleep together.

The week passed fairly fast and Edward wasn't home late once. The amount of times he talked about Tanya reduced a noticeable amount as well and I appreciated his obvious effort in trying to not bring her up as often. It was now Saturday and I was preparing the guest room for Edward's parents. I was looking forward to them staying but it was inevitable that Esme would spend a lot of her time asking about grandbabies and she hadn't yet caught on that it was a sensitive subject – she was almost as eager as I was for a new addition in the family.

They arrived around seven that evening after being in traffic for most of the day. Edward took their bags upstairs whilst I made the final touches on dinner. Ten minutes or so later, we were seated and had just begun dinner.

"Thank you for letting us stay, I know you two are busy with work at the moment," Carlisle said.

"Not that busy… Even if we were, I'd still want you to have come," Edward answered.

"So you two," Esme said, "Am I any closer to becoming a grandma?" She was grinning like crazy and I tensed slightly at her words. This must be a record time, twenty minutes after she got through the door.

"Uh, we're working on it," Edward replied, attempting a carefree smile.

"Besides," I said, clearing my throat, "You have three to keep you busy."

"Yes but I'm so curious to see what your baby would look like… I bet she'd have light hair and green eyes…. Presuming it's a she." My eyes welled up as she described a child I so desperately wanted. I hastily excused myself from the table, with the excuse of needing the toilet and retreated to mine and Edward's bedroom. I sat on the edge of the bed and wiped away the tears that were freely falling from my eyes – I wished getting pregnant hadn't become such an obsessive behavior of mine but I couldn't help it. I was so unbelievably desperate for a baby. I was broken out of my thoughts with a soft knock on the door. I stood and pressed down my trousers, wiping under my eyes for any excess moisture before opening the door and coming face to face with a very apologetic looking Esme.

"Can I talk to you for a minute?" she asked softly.

"Of course," I said, opening the door wider and taking a seat back on the bed. She shut the door behind her and sat next to me, taking my hand.

"Edward just got pretty mad at me for upsetting you… I am so sorry Bella, I didn't know you to had been trying to get pregnant. I thought you didn't even want children at the moment and if I had known I would have never opened my stupid-"

"Esme it's fine," I said, cutting her off, "There was no way you could have known because we didn't tell you. I'm just super sensitive about it and I know it stresses Edward out but I can't help it."

"You can talk to me about it, you'd be surprised how much a mother's wisdom can help," she said, giggling softly and breaking the tension in the room. It might actually be beneficial if I talked to her about it, I'd only spoken to Rose and Alice briefly about it and I didn't express how much it was truly bothering me then.

"We've been trying for nearly seven months now and nothings changing. I hate that I've let sex just become about getting pregnant and we're both stressed about it and that reduces chances of conceiving. Edward has tried to convince me that we should stop trying so hard and just see what happens but because I'm so obsessive about it I always say no, even though I know he' s right and every month he has to calm me down when I find out I'm not pregnant. I haven't even asked how he feels about it and I don't want to know what he'd say because I know it would upset me even more and I just feel like it's all my fault," I said, feeling defeated and crying again.

"Firstly, I can guarantee Edward probably feels it's his fault too. Chances are he feels that he isn't man enough to get you pregnant but is putting on a brave face because he's supposed to look after you. It's neither of your fault… I've always believed that everything happens for a reason, and if you aren't getting pregnant right now, maybe it's because it isn't meant to happen just yet… Maybe it will happen in a month or two months because that is when the time will be right. It will happen Bella, I know it will but I think Edward is right, you both need to focus on something else for a while – distract yourselves. Also, you need to stop making sex about getting pregnant and try and go back to when it was just for you two to show each other you loved each other. The most important thing you do is talk to Edward about it though, in itself that will reduce the stress and you'll be able to deal with it together. I honestly think that as soon as you stop trying, you'll get pregnant. Just try and trust me on this Bella." I nodded and hugged Esme tight, thanking her for talking to me before we rejoined Carlisle and Edward downstairs. I kissed Edward once we sat back down and held his hand for the rest of the evening. As soon as his parents left, Edward and I needed to talk about this baby situation.

So Bella's feeling happier…

The actual plot is going to start in the next few chapters now so yay. Things should get interesting.
