'Outta Here' By Esmée Denters
So, Caleb's been born, now it's time for Bella to finally listen to Edward's side of the story...
I felt so happy holding my son. I'd carried him for eight months, and talked to him, it was nice to finally meet him. Carlisle said he was healthy and that the ninth month wouldn't have made a difference to his development, and it would have been just as uncomfortable for me. The only set back was Charlie. He was still in the sedated coma. I wanted him to see his grandson. Suddenly, Edward walked in,
"Bella," He whispered, I looked up and smiled, adjusting Caleb so he was comfortable
"Hey," I smiled, I was in such a good mood, he walked over at sat on the bed
"Can I hold him?" He asked, I nodded. He gently lifted him from my arms, and cooed him
"He's adorable" He commented, I smiled again
"He has your eyes, you know" I said a matter-of-factly, he chuckled. Edward gazed at Caleb
"Your hair, though" He added, stroking the tuft of brown hair on Caleb's head, I chuckled, but Caleb began crying
"Here" I said, reaching for him.
I stroked and cooed him back to sleep. I noticed that Edward was staring at me, I didn't mind it, but I was curious to know why he was,
"What?" I chuckled, he smiled and shook his head
"Nothing, he's just lucky to have a mom like you" He said, I looked at Caleb's soft slumbering face, then back at Edward, who sighed "he needs a dad, Bella" I scoffed
"Not this again," I muttered
"Bella-" I shook my head before he could finish
"I feel like I can't trust you again" I said, he looked down, "Edward?"
"It's Emmett's fault" He muttered
"What?" I demanded,
"If he hadn't of made me go to that place" He said angrily "it was too goddamn early, anyway" He muttered
"Edward, what the hell are you talking about?" I ordered
"He took Jasper and I to this bar," He began explaining, "we took it in turns to get the drinks, and then it came to my turn. I went to the bar and she was there, behind the bar," My eyes widened in shock, Lauren worked at a bar? Of course, only she would sink that low,
"Then what happened?" I asked curiously,
"She served me, I watched her carefully as she got the drinks, it looked as if she didn't do anything, but..." He scoffed and turned away,
"Edward, what happened?" I asked worriedly,
"I think she spiked my drink. Jasper said I was absolutely out of it after one drink, and as they were walking me back to the car, she came up to me, blindfolded me, and said she was... you" I gasped slightly. I looked at Caleb, who was still sleeping
"Me? She told you she was me? You know the sound of my voice, why didn't you-"
"I was drunk, Bella, of course I'm going to think she's you" He said, I sighed "Of course, you know the rest"
"But, why didn't they tell me?" I asked
"They did, well, they tried to" He said, I looked down, then I remembered, First Alice,
"Bella, I-" I rushed past her to the stairs
"Where's Edward?" I asked,
"He's upstairs" She said, "but I don't thi-" I started running upstairs before she finished.
Then Esme, Jasper and Emmett,
"Bella" Esme said quietly
"Where's Edward?" I asked, Jasper's eyes widened again, and Emmett gasped, I ignored them both
"His room, but Bella don-" I was gone before she finished.
I then felt tears form in my eyes. I'd ignored them for all these months, when they had tried to tell me, they had wanted me to know, but I blanked them out. I felt the guilt creeping up on me, a tear fell down my cheek, and I looked at Edward,
"I'm s-sorry" I sobbed, he scooted closer to me, and put his arm around me, so I could rest my head on his shoulder,
"Bella," He whispered, before he kissed my hair, then my forehead, and finally my lips,
"I love you," I whispered, he smiled
"I love you too, I love you both" He smiled, as he kissed Caleb,
I looked at the window, I saw Alice beaming and grinning, with Rosalie doing the same, I laughed.
