Alright guys, here's another chapter. This one doesn't have any lemons in it, its a 'real' chapter.
To address a comment I got, I write for me and for those that like and want to read my stories. I'm not making anyone read them. This is a hobby of mine, as it is for may others, I'm writing these stories because I like writing and I'm a fan of the series.
I fumbled around, looking for my phone. Once I found it, my hand were shaking so much that I had to re-dial the number over and over.
"Bella? Its ten, what's going on?." I could hear the smile in Rose's voice.
"I have a problem. Can you come over?" I stuttered.
"What's wrong?"
"Can you please just get here?" I plopped down on the bed, my phone falling next to me. One of the tests was still in my hand.
I don't know how long I just lay there, not moving. I was just thinking; staring at the test.
I had convinced myself that I wasn't actually pregnant by the time Rose knocked on the door.
"Come in." I called out and sat up on the bed.
"Bella, whats going on? You call me in a panic, asking me to come here. I just don't- " Rose's voice sharply cut off when her eyes landed on my hand. "Is- is that what I think it is?"
I nodded, a tear falling from my eyes.
"How many did you take?" She sat next to me on the bed.
"Seven," my voice cracked.
"Oh, sweetie." Rose wrapped her arm around my shoulders. "Here is what were going to do; You go wash your face, and I'll call the clinic and make an appointment."
I nodded and made my way to the bathroom.
I turned on the cold water and looked at myself in the mirror. Once the tears started, I couldn't stop them.
I splashed some water on my face and made my way to Rose. She was sitting on the bed.
"Appointment is for tomorrow afternoon. It will be ok, I promise. I am here for you." Rose informed me when she saw me walk in.
I nodded and sat down next to her.
"I didn't even know that you were seeing someone." Rose mumbled and took my hand in hers.
"I'm not." I said softly.
"Do- do you know who the father is?" She murmured.
I nodded my head.
"Who is it?" She wiped away some of the tears that started running down my face again.
I opened and closed my mouth a couple of times, trying to find the courage to tell Rose.
I shook my head and looked at the floor. My phone flashed, missed call from Edward.
My breath caught in my throat and I started crying harder. I hadn't even thought about him until now. What was he going to say? What were his parents going to say? Esme is going to be so disappointed.
I started hyperventilating, thinking about everyone turning away from me. How could I be this stupid? I just threw away my future.
And Edward, he had such a bright future ahead of him. Well, I wasn't about to let this ruin his future. He was not finding out.
"Is it Edward?" Rose whispered.
I looked up at her with wide eyes, her face blurring from the tears that just wouldn't stop.
I nodded my head and a huge sob just ripped through my body.
"You, you can't tell him." I bawled.
Rose moved closer and wrapped an arm around my shoulders, the only thing holding me together.
"Its ok honey, we don't have to tell anyone you don't want to." She rubbed my arm and I put my head on her shoulder.
After what felt like hours of me blubbering on her shoulder, Rose got up to make me a cup of tea.
She was moving around in the kitchen quietly and I thought this was a good time to text Edward so that he wouldn't completely lose his mind.
'Hey, I went home, English project due. I'll see you later :)'
"Here you go, this will make you feel better. I know it calmed me down." Rose handed me a cup of herbal tea. It smelled bad, but I felt that I wanted to drink it.
I put my phone down and grabbed the tea, hurriedly drinking it.
"What do you mean it helped you?" I looked up at Rose as realization hit me.
"Why do you think Emmett and I got engaged while still in school?" Rose smiled.
"So, congratulations?"
"No, I lost the baby." Rose's smile faltered. Tears springing to her eyes.
"I'm so sorry, Rose." I put the empty mug down and hugged my friend. "Why didn't you tell me?"
"I don't know. Emmett and I had already told everyone that we were getting married and when I lost it, I was in a dark place so Emmett and I thought that keeping my mind on the wedding might help me." Rose explained through the tears.
"I am so sorry." I whispered again as the tears returned. This time not from self pity, but from mourning, and from the pain that my best friend was going through.
"Its ok." Rose wiped the tears from her eyes. "Ive had time to come to terms with it."
We pulled away and looked at each other.
"So, are you really not planning on telling Edward?" Asked, her eyes searching my face.
"I'm going to tell him that Im pregnant, but not that its his." I mumbled.
"Why not?"
"I cant ruin his future. We're not even a couple. We just fuck, I can't do this to him. Its my own fault and I won't drag him into this." I angrily wiped the tears away.
"I hate to break it to you, but it takes two people to make a baby. Edward would want to know, Bella. I don't think that your relationship status really matters at this point." Rose shook her head.
"I can't do this to him. I love him too much. He's been working towards this for years and I will not take it away from him." I stated.
"What makes you think that this will stop him from achieving his dreams? Or you achieving yours? you and I both know that he will be more hurt if you don't tell him."
"I cant do this to him." I murmured looking at the ground.
"Alright, we can talk about this tomorrow." Rose sighed.
She moved off the bed so that I could get under the covers. She wrapped me up and sat down next to me.
She told me about Emmett's reaction, the goof actually fell over and hit his head on something, and how he proposed. This time the full story because she told me about all of the cheesy things Emmett said about their future with their child.
So, I hope you enjoyed the chapter. Let me know what you think, should Bella keep this from Edward? Or is Rose right? How is everyone else going to react?
How will Edward react to the news?
