A/N- Hey everyone! So, this chapter isn't the longest I've written, but I really liked writing this chapter; it made me quite happy. Also, there's further relationship building between Edward and Bella, and also Bella and Emmett.

Okay, I don't really have anything to say, other than, enjoy this chapter :)

The last four weeks has gone by without me even noticing.

Everything was going great! I was fine and healthy, my baby was growing according to plan, and mine and Edward's relationship was growing stronger each and every day.

The day after I confessed my true feeling towards Edwards, I was allowed to go home from the hospital, but I had to go back to my OG/GYN for a scan the following week. I did as I was told, and the baby was just fine when I went for my check up. Edward came with me, of course, and he was delighted again to see our baby, as was I. I didn't go back to school until after my check-up, so I was pretty nervous on the Monday morning, a week after everyone found out I was pregnant. Alice and Rose had filled me in on everything at school for the week of my absence. Apparently, the principal had an 'anonymous' source, showing exactly what Jessica, Tanya and Lauren did at the game to me, and now, they've been suspended for 2 weeks, which is great, as now I don't have to see them for another week. Also, Edward just about hit some stupid kid who told him that he was 'screwed for life, because he was having a kid at 17'. After Emmett and Jasper stopped Edward from beating the kid to a pulp, the boy never said a word to him since, neither did any of this kid's friends.

Edward picked me up on Monday, so that we could walk in together. We weren't ashamed of what was happening, and we weren't going to hide from everyone. So, when we pulled up into the parking lot, we got out of the car, held each others' hand, and walked into school with our heads held high. Of course, people were whispering, and everyone was staring at us, well, mainly me, but we carried on walking together. I wasn't going to let anyone make me feel bad for what I was doing.

Monday went pretty well considering, I mean, apart from the occasional remark I overheard, no one really said anything to me. Tuesday, on the other hand, went a little more unsteady. It was second period, and I had Spanish, which was boring, but I had Emmett sat on the desk next to me, so we would pass notes to each other. Some jerk caught us passing notes, and when the teacher left the room to collect something, he leaned over to Emmett and said,

"You better watch out man, otherwise she'll get knocked up by you and you'll be the baby-daddy as well as your brother." Well, I could see Emmett's features turn nasty, and he stood from his desk, and punched the douche straight in his face. I tried with all my might not to laugh, because the jerk was actually shaking when he stood back up. Emmett leaned right into his face then, and said,

"Unless you want me to make a permanent indent into your thick skull, you better keep it shut, you got it?" The boy nodded, and sat back down quietly. I put my hand onto Emmett's shoulder when he returned to his desk, and whisper a 'thank you' to him.

"No problem Izzy, but if anyone else gives you grief, just come to me and I'll sort them out." I nodded and chuckled to myself. I really did love Emmett to death!

Apart from the little incident in the week, nothing else has really happened in the last four weeks. When the 3 bitches returned to school, they got told that if they so much as talked to me, they'd be out of the school permanently.

Now, I'm 20 weeks pregnant, which means I'm half way through my pregnancy. I was amazed when I figured out I'd already endured half of this pregnancy. Today was a Saturday, and I was getting ready to go the doctors for my 20 week scan. I woke up at about 9:00am, and jumped in the shower to wash away the night's sleep. My appointment was at 1:00pm, so I had a bit of time before I had to get ready, so when I got out of the shower, I didn't bother getting ready straight away, and grabbed my dressing gown and went downstairs for some breakfast. I walked into my kitchen to see my dad drinking some coffee and reading the paper, whilst my mom was cleaning around the kitchen. I said 'hi' to my parents, and started on my breakfast. Ever since becoming pregnant, my food habits have been all over the place, so, for breakfast now, I have a bacon sandwich, with marmalade on the top. As I was making it, my mom was just staring at me.

"Bella, that really is quite disgusting." She said. I had to laugh, as if it was my choice to what I ate whilst being pregnant; believe me, I wouldn't even contemplate eating this otherwise. I sat down in the living room with my sandwich and watched some TV, enjoying the mood of the house. Everything was quite serene, peaceful, like everything just agreed with each other. By the time my food was eaten, it was nearly 10:00am, so I went back upstairs to sort myself out. I decided to wear my leggings, with a plaint tee and a shirt over the top. I let my hair just fall down my back naturally. As I looked in the mirror, I noticed my stomach. In the last month, it had grown. Now, you could definitely tell that I was either pregnant or just getting fat! I still wasn't used to their being a bump in front of me, but I started noticing how my favourite skinny jeans won't sit me anymore, and some of my tops don't really fit me. Soon, I would need a whole new wardrobe, which I wouldn't really mind. I texted Edward, telling him that when he was ready to come over to mine early, because I wanted to see him before the scan. Within about 15 minutes of me sending the text, the doorbell rang, so I ran to answer it, already knowing who it was. My Greek God, prefect in every way.

"Hey Edward." I said as he walked into my house. He leaned down to kiss me quickly.

"Hey beautiful. How are you?" He was so caring. I smiled as we walked up to my room, with a quick 'hello' from my parents. When Edward shut the door, I walked up to him and kissed him passionately. His tongue felt amazing against mine, and we moved our lips in sync. He pulled away with a big goofy grin on his chops.

"What was that for?" He asked, a little shocked. I wrapped my arms around his neck, and he wrapped his around my waist.

"Well, I just thought I'd let you know that I'm in love with you, and that-"But I got cut off by a weird movement in my stomach. I let go of Edward, and placed my hand to where the movement came from on my stomach.

"Woah!" I said, shocked.

"Bells, what's the matter?" Edward asked in a panicked voice. Then, after the movement continued a couple of times after, I figured out what it was. I smiled, but Edward was still confused.

"It's the baby Edward, it's kicking." Once he figured it out, he smiled as well.

"Can you feel it on your stomach?" I nodded and I reached my hand out for him to grab.

"Feel." I said, as I placed his hand on my stomach, where the movement was present. Then suddenly, the baby kicked again. I looked up to see Edward's face, filled with happiness and delight. This had been the first time he'd ever felt the baby move. I, on the other hand, had felt flutters in my stomach, which only I could feel, so when Edward could feel our baby kicking for the first time, it was really a touching moment. I wanted to show my parents, so I walked downstairs and into the kitchen.

"Mom, dad, guess what?!" I said. My mom turned around from whatever she was cleaning, and my dad's head turned quickly towards me.

"What's the matter Bells?" My dad said, a little panicked. Maybe I shouldn't of come running down the stairs and shouted to them?

"The baby's kicking." I said with a smile on my face. My mom smiled like a loon, walked over and put a hand on my stomach. When the baby kicked, she gasped.

"Wow, Charlie, come and feel this, it's amazing!" She said, happily. My dad came over and my mom placed his hand in the right place. Then, the baby kicked like crazy, and I could see the smile plastered on my dad's face as well.

"Wow, you really do have someone growing in there." He looked at me and kissed my forehead. I think that, at that moment, it was kind of like a closure thing between me and my dad. Since we talked things out a couple of weeks ago, he's been kind of okay with the pregnancy; but this seemed like an end to the war between us. After about 10 minutes, Edward told me it was 12:45pm and we needed to get going for the hospital. I grabbed my bag and walked out with Edward to his Volvo. Surprisingly, it was a nice sunny day in Forks, with a fairly warm temperature, and a lush breeze in the air. Edward and I were silent on the way to the hospital, but we had the radio on, and the windows open, just enjoying the nice spring day.

Once we pulled into the parking lot, Edward opened my door and we walked hand in hand to the hospital entrance. I signed myself in, and within 5 minutes of turning up, the doctor called us in. We still had Dr. Greene, so we knew who we were dealing with.

"So, how are things now? You're at 20 weeks, correct?" She asked me. I smiled at her and spoke.

"Yeah, things are great. I could feel the baby move for the first time today; so could Edward." I looked at Edward, who grabbed my hand and squeezed it. The doctor was smiling, and she took some notes down.

"Okay, so, you're half way through your pregnancy, and as I can see, you seem to have started to grow a bit. Has everything felt okay? Nothing out of the ordinary?"

"No, everything has been fine. Apart from this morning, there's been nothing new. Well, except my stomach obviously growing." I chuckled, so did Edward and Dr. Greene.

"Okay Bella, can you make your way over to the table and we'll get started." I nodded and got up and walked over to the table. Edward sat down in the chair next to me, and I pulled my leggings down a little, and pulled my top up a little. Dr. Greene came over and started turning on the ultrasound machine, and turned to me with a smile.

"So, have you had any food cravings?" She asked.

"Well, every morning now, I'll eat a bacon and marmalade sandwich." She laughed, and I chuckled as well.

"I don't know how she can eat it, it's gross." Edward said. The doctor laughed again.

"Well, when I was pregnant, I used to have mustard with everything; you name it, I had to have mustard with it." Thank God I'm not the only weirdo with these eating habits! When the machine was up and running, she put some gel onto my stomach, then with the ultrasound probe, she moved it about on my stomach. Then, on the little screen, there was my baby. You could see the outline of it now, and you could tell it was a baby. I held Edwards hand, and he smiled at the screen. Then, the doctor pressed a couple of buttons, and there was a very prominent beating sound.

"That's your baby's heart beat." She said. I smiled, and just sat there listening to the soothing sound. Edward did the same, with the occasional squeeze of my hand. Again, the doctor pressed a few buttons, and then turned to us with a smile.

"Okay, because you're now 20 weeks, I can tell the sex of the baby. Would you like to know?" I turned to Edward, and he stared at me. Considering the mix up before hand with the sex of the baby, I had a gut feeling that it would be bad luck if we knew. Edward could tell what I was thinking, and so he nodded in agreement.

"Ummm, we don't want to know what we're having." I smiled, and the doctor nodded and printed off some pictures of the ultrasound. She gave me a paper towel to wipe all the gel from me, and then I got up off the table, and sat back down in the chair by her desk. She handed me the pictures, and I couldn't help but look at them again.

"Okay Bella, unless there are any problems, I'll book you in for a scan in about 3 weeks to make sure baby is doing fine. Other than that, everything looks great." Edward and I thanked Dr. Greene and left the hospital. Once we got into the car, I showed Edward the pictures again. The drive back to Edwards' house was just as good as the drive to the hospital; I mean, I felt great knowing my baby was healthy, and that I could actually make out an arm or a leg on the photo. We arrived at the Cullen house with a happiness that seemed to emanate from both Edward and I. Once we got inside the house, we saw Esme and Carlisle first.

"Hey kids, how did the scan go?" Carlisle said, hugging me. I really loved Carlisle and Esme; they were like a second set of parents to me. I showed them both the scan and Esme just about stopped herself from tearing up. She placed a hand on my stomach and smiled at me.

"My little grandson or daughter is in there; it's just amazing!" I couldn't help but smile at how happy she was.

"Well mom, the baby kicked earlier and I felt it." Edward announced. Esme's smile seemed to grow some more, and so did Carlisle's. After telling them about the baby moving, they said they had to leave to go to the supermarket. Edward and I walked into the living room and sunk down onto the couch. About 5 minutes later, Emmett, Rose, Alice and Jasper came down and sat in the living room.

"Hey guys, how was the baby scan, thing?" Emmett said.

"It went great, we actually heard the baby's heartbeat today. It was amazing." Edward said. I should them all the scan photos, and Rose and Alice just 'awwed' a lot, whereas Jasper and Emmett were taking a good long look at the photo. When Emmett had it, he looked at the photo, then at my stomach, then back at the photo again. It made me chuckle.

"Yes Em, there really is something inside of me." Everyone laughed, and Emmett handed back the photo.

"I can't wait to be cool Uncle Emmett!" Em shouted. I smiled, and then everyone decided to speak up.

"Yeah, me either. Except, when our niece or nephew is older, I'll be the one giving them advice on school and life, whereas 'cool Uncle Emmett' will be giving them advice on girls and how to drink without getting caught!" Again, everyone laughed. I reached over and grabbed Edward's hand. He smiled at me, and then turned back to his siblings and friends.

"Well, I hope you have a girl, cause then I can take her shopping and give her tips." Alice winked at me, and I could just picture her with a little baby, in a shopping mall. Then Rosalie spoke.

"Well, I personally don't mind what you have; as long as I can be the one to teach them how to punch someone if a) a boy goes way too far or b) a boy is a douche bag." I smiled at all my friends. They were really amazing at how they were dealing with this. Suddenly, Edward's phone buzzed. He answered it and started talking to the person on the other end. Once he hung up, he looked at me with apologetic eyes.

"What's up?" I said, a little worried.

"That was Tyler. He said that we have to have an emergency meeting with the coach. Sorry Bells." He squeezed my hand, but I smiled.

"It's okay Edward; I'll just stay here, if you don't mind." He nodded and got up and went out the door. Soon after, Jasper and Alice decided to take a drive into Port Angles, and Rosalie decided to go home not long after that. It was just me and Emmett.

"Looks like it's just you and me, Izzy." He smiled, and he told me that we could go up and play Guitar Hero on the X-Box. I enjoyed the afternoon, just messing around with Emmett, and kicking his ass at Guitar Hero.

"I'm so awesome at this Em; you'll never-"But then, a movement again in my stomach. I stopped mid-sentence, and Emmett face suddenly turned to look at me.

"Oh my God, the baby's coming; quick, I need towels!" He started shouting and running around his room like a headless chicken. I ended up having to shout at him to get his attention.

"EMMETT! Please stop running around like a loon! It's just the baby kicking." After he heard me, he calmed down instantly, and joined me back on his sofa. I had my hand placed where the movement was coming from, and I could see Em staring and my stomach. Then, he looked up at me.

"Bells, can I have a feel?" I nodded and grabbed his hand, which he placed ever so gently onto my stomach. Then, the baby kicked, and Emmett smiled. The baby kept kicking, until about 5 minutes later. I looked at Em, and he seemed a little speechless. That's a first!

"Wow, that was weird." He said, in true Emmett Cullen fashion. I chuckled, and nodded at him.

"Yeah, those were my thoughts this morning when the baby first did it." He smiled, and grabbed my hand in his massively huge hands.

"You know Bella, I really so think you're being so awesome with accepting this. I mean, you and Edward seem so calm and collected. I wouldn't be if Rose was pregnant; well, you saw how I freaked out about the baby moving."

"Believe me Em, I may seem calm about all of this, but really, I'm scared shitless. I think Edward is more calmer than me."

"Well, I just want to let you know that, if you need anything, or anyone to talk to or have a getaway place for a few hours, then you know where I am. I mean, you're like a sister to me Bells, and I would never want to see you hurt." Oh my gosh. I felt my eyes tear up, but I could blame it on the hormones. I hugged him so tightly, and he gently hugged me back. When I pulled away, he leaned over and place both his hands on my stomach.

"And if you ever need a place to come when your parents are shouting at you, you can come and stay with your cool Uncle." And he lightly kissed my stomach. I could tell that Em was already quite attached to this baby, without even knowing the sex or anything. Another half an hour passed, and Edward finally came home. I was down in the kitchen, making some ice tea for me and Em when he strolled in. I walked over to him and placed a kiss on his lips.

"Hey Edward."

"Hey beautiful." He walked over and poured himself a glass of ice tea, and followed me up the stairs into Emmett's room. We had moved on to watch some movies, so Emmett was laughing his head off when Shrek was on the wide screen television. I passed him his drink, and he thanked me, and all three of us sat on the sofa, watching the rest of the film. By the time the movie was over, it was nearly 7:00pm, and I needed to get home. I said a 'thank you' to Em for spending the afternoon with me, and then Edward dropped me home, with me promising to ring him later. When I got into my house, I noticed my parents in the living room, cuddled up together on the sofa. They looked really sweet, just being together; it reminded me of Edward and myself. I told them about my scan and shared the pictures. Once they were done, I decided to have an early night, so I went up into my room, got undressed into some pyjamas, and just snuggled up on my bed with a movie on. An hour or so into the movie, and my phone buzzed. I had a message from Edward.

Hey beautiful, just thought I'd text you quickly, as you might already be asleep. My parents want you and your parents over ours tomorrow for dinner. I'll let you know the details tomorrow, and my mom is ringing Renee now. Sleep tight both of you, I love you both. Edward x

It was really sweet for him to mention the baby. Just after I finished reading the text, the house phone started ringing, and sure enough, my mom answered to Esme. I texted Edward back.

Hey Edward. I'm just about to fall asleep, so I'll make this quick. My mom is speaking to your mom as I'm writing this, so I'll see you tomorrow. Love Bella and baby xx

With that, I closed my phone, sunk more into my bed, and within about 10 minutes, I'd drifted off into the darkness.

Okay, so I hope you enjoyed this chapter.

Like I said, it's not the longest, but it's nice.

R+R please :D Also, in the review, can you tell me whether you'd rather them have a boy or a girl :D

I have one that I prefer, but I'd like to hear from you what you think :)

Next chapter will be up soon.
