"Hello?"
"Bella, what the hell is going on down there?"
"Charlie?"
"For Christ sakes kid how many times do I have to tell you to call me Dad, I am after all your father. What's this I hear about you and Jake splitting up?"
"Well Dad, Jake and I are splitting up."
"What did you do?"
"What the hell, what makes you think I did something?"
"Probably because I was at Billy's house watching the game when a drunk Jacob called and was crying on and on about his broken heart."
"And it didn't cross your mind that it could've been his own damn fault?"
"Well, you are your mother's daughter…"
"Not cool Dad."
"You're rights Bells I'm sorry. Can't you guys work this out? Tell me what happened."
"Dad, I really don't want to get into this with you, I can handle it by myself."
"Oh really, handling things would be working on your marriage, and not throwing it all away after what I'm sure was just some little spew. I didn't think you were a quitter Bells."
"You know what, fine Dad. You want to know what happened? Jake cheated on me with Leah Clearwater, several times. You of all people should know how that feels."
"Mother fuc-"
"Oh, and congratulations Grandpa, I'm pregnant."

"Yell-o?"
"Honestly mom, who the hell answers with yell-o?"
"Bella honey, how many times do I have to ask you to call me Renee. Do I look like a mother to you?"
"Jesus Christ, what do you people want from me?"
"What's that dear?"
"Nothing Renee, I just wanted to see if you've heard the good news."
"Ooh did Jake finally get me that Mustang convertible?"
"Would you please stop thinking about yourself for five minutes?"
"Well aren't you cranky. Are you PMS-ing"?
"I wish"
"Huh?"
"I'm pregnant."
"Is this a joke?"
"No"
"What are you gunna do about it?"
"Well I'm going to have it and raise it, obviously."
"Baby you have options. How far along are you, it might not be too late."
"You know my opinion on that stuff Renee."
"God help you, I know. I just don't want you to make a mistake, you're still young."
"Well that's real sweet Renee, and I'm not that young."
"You know what I mean, I'm just shocked. I'm too hot to be a grandmother."
"And there you go, what was that… two minutes?"
"Oh hush. How does Jake feel?"
"Um, he's excited I think. We're not really together right now."
"What do you mean?"
"Long story short, he cheated on me so I left"
"Oh."
"Yeah."
"Was it a mistake?"
"He says it was… it doesn't really matter."
"Are you sure about this Bella?"
"About the baby or Jake?"
"Both, I guess."
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure."
"People make mistakes all the time sweetie…"
"And who exactly are you referring to?"
"I suppose I deserve that. I just don't want you to be naïve Bella. If Jake is truly sorry then maybe it's worth working out. Nobody's perfect."
"It's more than that Renee, its just over. I just want to focus on the baby right now."
"I can't believe you're going to be a mom! You know I'll be there for you, right sweetie? I Love you."
"God help me, I love you too."
-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-
"What!"
"Whoa there tiger, what did I do to deserve that charming greeting?"
"Edw- oh shit- hello? Edward, are you still there?"
"Yeah…what are you doing?"
"Sorry, I kind of dropped the phone. Um, what's up?"
"I was just thinking about you and I was wondering if you wanted to go out and do something with me tonight."
"Of course! I mean, I'm a little busy but I'm sure I can schedule you in. Okay, I don't really have a schedule but you get it. What I meant was-"
"Bella?"
"Yeah?"
"I'll pick you up in 20."
