Chapter 7: True Lies
True Lies
Bella got up for the third time that morning running to the bathroom. She thought she was coming down with a bug and thought nothing of it. She knew that she needed to get a shower and get to work due to the fact that she was already running late. As she began putting on her bra she noticed that her breasts were extremely sore, she would have just thought it was because she was starting her period but she noticed it was a lot sorer as well as swollen. She looked as if she grew two cups bigger. She immediately went to the calendar to check the date and realized she had missed her period. Bella knew she needed to calm down and think rationally but no matter what kind of excuses she tried think up, there was only one answer.
"Oh No, Please god no" she cried "I'm late, Oh no I can't be" she began to panic "that was four weeks ago" She went through all the questions she had plaguing her mind, she was in utter shock and disbelief, after having a mini breakdown she knew she had to take control of the situation, she immediately went into doctor mode. She then decided to call off work and go to the store to buy a pregnancy test.
When Bella arrived at the store she wondered down each isle as if in a daze. Going through her memories of what happen four weeks ago.
"Oh my god we didn't use protection, How could I be so irresponsible" she says to herself as she walked through the isle. Then she reached the prenatal Isle she walked over to the pregnancy test and picked up the first response pregnancy test and read the box. She was completely lost in thought staring at the box until a soft melodic voice began talking to her.
"Pregnant, Huh" asked the woman, Bella quickly turns around and notices a woman whom was possibly mid-twenties with lengthy dark brown hair, dark mysterious grey eyes with a perfect supermodel figure that women would kill for. Her nails were perfectly manicured; she was the epitome of beautiful. She also noticed the woman wore a beautiful engagement ring and wedding band set on her left ring finger.
"Uh...I uh... Don't...uh" she stuttered not making clear eye contact with the woman
"Hmm...My husband and I have been trying to have a baby" the woman stares at Bella with her dark grey eyes in a devious gaze.
"Oh umm I'm sorry" she said trying to figure out why this woman was talking to her. She had a really bad feeling; it was something about the woman that was unsettling to her. She then decided that she needed to get out of the uncomfortable situation.
"Well…Um it was nice talking to you I have to go now" she then turned around and walk away as fast as she could before mysterious woman could answer.
"We will see each other again Isabella" the woman whispered to herself. For the past few weeks she has been following Bella around trying to find out information on her. The first time she saw her was at club Genova that is the night she decided to make it her mission to find out every detail she could about her.
As soon as Bella got home she ran to the bathroom, tearing open the pregnancy kit to find the stick, after she urinated on the stick she put it on the sink and finished using the bathroom. She waited the three minutes pacing around the bathroom."
"Please God No" She said staring at the two pregnancy tests. She had made sure to use both of them just in case. When it was time to look at them she began to pray. Then she picked one of the tests up.
"Oh No!" It was positive she rushed and picked up the other test, it was positive.
"Oh my gosh" she began to panic "IM PREGNANT!" she yelled
"What!"

Earlier
Rosalie had been trying to call Bella but she was not answering the phone. It was out of character for Bella to call off work considering she was such a dedicated doctor and she had no life. She was ready to pound Edward within an inch of his life if he hurt her. So she then made up her mind that she was going to go check and see if she is home and make sure her best friend was okay.
As she pulled up to Bella's house, she noticed Bella's car was in her driveway, so she went to the door and used her key to unlock the door and let herself in. As she walked in she noticed that Bella had thrown her things on the floor which was proof she did go somewhere but where. Without saying a word she walked around the house looking for her friend. She began to worry and immediately thought the worst. Then she comes upon a loud pacing noise.
"What have you done, Edward" Rosalie said to herself. She then noticed that Bella was looking down at something that was in her hand she didn't want to scare her so she kept quiet. Then she heard something that shocked her to another world.
"I'M PREGNANT" At that point Rosalie could not stay quiet. She was angry.
"What" Rosalie yelled as loud as she could.
Now
"Rose, what are you doing here?" she said in complete fear
"What, what do you mean what am I doing here?" she said dumbstruck "Are you really Pregnant scratch that, how are you pregnant Bella, Who, When?"
"Rose...let me explain..."
"No Bella, Who is it, When...Damn it Bella tell me, I'm supposed to be your best friend now when was it..Who was it" she said feeling hurt the only guy she knew had been around Bella was Edward but Bella had sworn to her nothing happened.
"Four weeks ago with Edward" she said with tears in her eyes, finally realizing the lies she told came back with a vengeance and is now caused her best friend pain.
"What...Wait a damn minute Isabella Marie Swan...You told me nothing happened...You told me you were mistaken, you told me you and Edward just talked..."
"I know...What I told you...but it just happened Rose...I just was so scared, I didn't know what to do...I was embarrassed"
"You didn't know what to do...How about tell your best friend the truth!"
"I wanted to Rose...I wanted to so many times...I just couldn't"
"I don't even know who you are anymore" Rosalie said full of hurt and anger as she watches Bella cry. "We have never lied to each other…we always told each other the truth…what you don't trust me is that it Bella…how could you do this and now look you lied to me…I bet you lied to me about using protection too right" Bella nodded which made Rosalie livid
"You think I planned this Rosalie...Huh do you think I want to be pregnant...do you think that keeping this from you wasn't hurting me as well. I don't do those things Rose, I don't go to clubs or have random one night stands, I have never done anything like that before and it scared me...Rose...your my sister...I'm so sorry I lied to you... I never wanted to hurt you...I swear"
"But you did...are you going to tell Edward" she said stiffly
"No" she said softly
"No, Bella he has to know, you of all people should know lies hurt"
"Rosalie, Please don't tell Edward… I will tell him in time"
"That's your plan, when are you going to tell him when the kid is born, get real Bella" she chuckled harshly
"No, I'm in love with him Rose" This sudden truth softened Rosalie she had never heard her best friend ever say she was in love before and it was about time.
"It's about time" she said as she walked over and hugged Bella "Its okay sweetie we are in this together...always" This made Bella so relieved she didn't know what she would do without Rosalie.
"Thank you; I don't know what I would do without you"
"Okay so what's the plan" she said as they pulled apart
"Well, I want to keep the baby"
"What about Edward?"
"I want him to fall in love me before I tell him; I want to make him fall in love with me as much as I am in love with him"
"The guy is already crazy about you Bella, why does it matter if he falls in love with you. The baby may be a way to keep him"
"That's not the point, you see the point is I don't want to be like my parents, He is the greatest man I have ever met and my absolute dream guy and I'm scared as hell to tell him that I'm pregnant." Fear suddenly went through Bella's body at the possibility of Edward's rejection.
"So, How do you plan on keeping this from him, you know...your stomach will expand..."
"Yes, I know, that's why I'm going to hide it from him underneath my clothes"
"Won't you think he notice you are getting bigger overnight"
"Hopefully he and I will be together before it comes to that"
"Well let's get to work on Operation: Make my baby daddy fall in love with me" they both laughed and hugged happily.
"Rose"
"Yeah"
"Thanks"
"You are welcome; now you take care of the prenatal vitamins and then we will go shopping…you are due for new wardrobe if you want to bring that handsome stallion of a man to his knees"
"Well let's shop then"

Edward is at home grading papers, when suddenly he gets a knock on the door. Thinking it is Bella he got up happily as he fixes his hair and clothes, making sure he looked just right for his Bella.
"Give me a minute" he said cheerfully as he checks himself in the mirror for the last time then runs to the door and opens it. His smile instantly disappears.
"What the hell do you want" he said full of hostility and resentment
"Aren't you going to let your wife in?" this was Edward's nightmare come to life as he saw their wedding band set on her bony undesirable ring finger.
"Ex-wife!" he said as he moved aside to let her in.
"I will repeat myself once more, what the hell do you want Rebecca?"
"I missed you Edward, I think we should get back together"
"Hell no" he said angrily thinking this was a cruel joke God was playing on him
"Now Edward, There is no need for your hostility, we have known each other since we were sixteen...you know you remember the good times" she said while rubbing his muscular build.
"I think you should leave Rebecca and never come back" he says as he grabs her wrist pushing her away from him.
"C'mon Edward, You know you miss me, you know there is no other woman that can please you like I can." she said seductively "that little bitch Bella do not got shit on me and you know that" trying to get close to him, but Edward was having none of that.
"Wait, How do you know Bella, have you been stalking me" he said full of rage
"Calm down Eddie my love, a wife has the right to know who is keeping her husbands bed warm at night"
"Stay the hell away from her you manipulative bitch"
"Is that how you talk to your wife Edward" she pouts
"For the last time you are my ex-wife"
"So you say"
"What the fuck does that mean" he yelled
"You swore by god himself that you will love, honor and respect me Edward and you failed"
"Well you promised to remain Faithful to ME for the rest of our MARRIED lives"
"It was a Mistake!" she yelled loudly
"GET THE HELL OUT OF MY HOUSE NOW!"
"Edward wait..."
"GET OUT AND STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM BELLA" she turned around and walked away. Before she walked out the door she responded.
"This isn't over Edward...you and I are meant to be"
"GOODBYE, REBECCA" he slams the door at the same time she walked out
As Rebecca walked to her car she turned and said to herself "I will get you for this Isabella, You get yourself pregnant with my husband's baby, and I couldn't give my own husband a baby lord knows I tried, and all it took for that whore to spread her legs...You will pay...I will have my husband back and a baby even if it cost you your life."
