Karlie POV
2 months later…
"Deidra!"
I yelled, storming down the hall, "I'm hungry!"
"Then make
your own food," she said.
"I want caviar and
watermelon!"
"Wait, what?" she asked, sticking her head out
of her door, "Did you just say caviar and watermelon? You don't
even like caviar."
"Yes I do!"
"Calm down, geez, you're
acting like a hormonal pregnant…woman," she said, "Oh…my…god,
are you pregnant?!"
"Ugh, no, I used protection," I
clarified, walking down the hall.
"You mean…ew!" she yelled.
I looked over my shoulder with a sheepish grin, opened and closed
my bedroom door. I went into the bathroom and closed the door, "Shit,
what if she's right," I whispered to myself, opened the cabinet
under my sink and grabbed my handy dandy pregnancy
tests I kept under there.
I had the five pregnancy tests I just took laid out in front of
me, each stating I was, "Why me?" I thought and felt tears
running down my face.
"Hey, you in there?" Deidra asked,
knocking on the door.
"Yeah! Um…don't come in!"
"Too
late!" She yelled, opening the door and freezing as she saw the
tests, "I knew it!"
"Shh, please don't tell anyone," I
begged.
"Hold on," she cleared her throat, "Your eggo is
Preggo," I picked them all up, set them on the counter and shook
them, "Maybe it's just the temperature in here," I lied,
knowing I truly was pregnant.
"That ain't no etch-a-sketch.
That's one doodle that can't be undid."
"Can you stop
quoting Juno?" I asked, throwing the tests away, "We can't tell
Edward yet, he'll freak out."
"Why not? He's the
father…right?"
"Yeah."
"Okay, good, 'cause that
would be very bad if he wasn't the father."
"Fine, let's
go tell him…after I have nachos."
"No, nachos, we'll get
those after," she said, hooking her arm with mine and we walked
downstairs.
"We'll take my Porsche so you don't freak out
while you drive or throw up."
Deidra parked
in the Cullens' driveway where Rosalie's car was parked which
meant that she and Jasper were probably there.
"Ugh, remember,
no telling!" I growled before we got out and walked up to the front
door. Deidra knocked, giggled and I rolled my eyes, "Shut up."
Esme
answered and smiled, "Deidra! Karlie! What a nice surprise, come on
in." We walked in and Deidra giggled another time, "I said stop
it," I growled under my breath, "Edward, can I talk to you?" I
asked.
"Uh, sure," he said, getting off the couch from between
Emmett and Jasper and followed me upstairs to his room.
I sat next to him on his large bed and took a deep breath,
"Look, um…it's really important."
"Are you breaking up
with me?" he asked, grabbing my hands and had a worried expression
on his face. I shook my head, swallowed back tears and looked down at
the gold comforter, "I'm pregnant," I muttered.
"What?"
he asked, lifting my chin up so I looked into his bright emerald
eyes.
"I'm pregnant," I let out a breathless laugh.
"Are
you serious?"
I nodded, "Took five pregnancy tests and I've
been craving many interesting foods."
"My kid right?" he
asked.
I rolled my eyes, "Yes, don't worry."
"Okay,
please tell me this is just a big prank."
"It's not," I
shook my head.
He sighed, massaged my hand with his thumb and
looked back up at me, "So, you're pregnant…with my kid?"
I
nodded and we jumped as there was a scream from behind the door
followed by Deidra's laugh. Edward and I ran over to the door just
in time to see Alice running down the stairs, "Alice, don't!"
we yelled as Deidra continued to laugh.
"Karlie's pregnant
with Edward's baby!" Alice yelled and everyone froze and looked
up at us.
"I didn't know you had it in you Eddie, boy,"
Emmett laughed.
"Yay! I get to have a grandbaby!" Esme
cheered.
"Oh wait, I have something to say," Deidra said and
turned towards to Edward, "What the hell?! Don't think you can
get away for knocking my sister up! If you don't let me choose the
middle name, so help me I'll hate you forever!"
"Okay,
okay, fine," Edward said, backing up as Deidra glared at him with a
look that could kill.
"Hmm…Lindsay," Deidra nodded.
"What
if it's a boy?" I asked.
"Keep it Lindsay," she
giggled.
"Evil," Edward muttered and we walked downstairs
where I was bombarded.
"I heard screaming,"
Seth said, opening the front door, "Whoa, why's everyone
smiling?"
"Karlie is pregnant!" Alice and Deidra yelled and
Edward and I smacked them.
"Whoa, at least Deidra isn't,"
he laughed, Deidra giggled and Edward punched his arm.
"Isn't
payback a bitch?" he asked with a large grin.
"Don't piss me
off, I have pregnant hormones that can be highly deadly when messed
with."
He rolled his eyes and Rosalie squealed, "We can go
shopping!"
"Yeah!" Alice and Deidra cheered and they started
talking. I groaned and next thing I knew, Edward was kissing me.
"Off!" Deidra growled, pulling Edward away and turning to me,
"What do you want for the baby?"
"Um…it's only a month
old," I stated.
"So?"
"You should name it Emmett!"
Emmett yelled and we all started laughing.
Deidra pulled out her
phone, dialed a number and held it up to her ear, "Who are you
calling?" I asked. She held up her finger and started talking, from
the sounds of it, I wasn't happy.
"Okie dokie, you have an
appointment for an ultrasound in an hour."
"Sorry to ruin your
day but they won't be able to tell yet, you can't even tell I'm
pregnant." I lifted up my shirt a bit and looked at my stomach,
"Nope, no signs besides my food cravings. I haven't even thrown
up yet."
"But you've shown your hormones," Seth pointed
out and I growled at him.
"Just saying," he raised his hands
up, "How much of a bitch are you planning to be?"
He laughed,
dodging me as I tried to slap him, "I was kidding!"
Deidra's
phone rang, she answered it and hurried into the nearest bathroom,
"What the hell?" I asked, grabbing Seth's sleeve as he stared
after her and slapping him.
Edward grabbed my forearms and pulled
me away from Seth. I heard the phone drop in the bathroom, Deidra
opened the door with a smile and walked back over to us, "Sorry,
important phone call."
"Mhm," I nodded, how very suspicious.
"Bob?" Edward asked as he collapsed on the
end of his bed while I lounged across the pillows at the head,
"Seriously, it's a child, not a stick figure," I said.
"Well,
what do you want if it's a girl? Or boy?"
"Hm…for a girl I
want her name to be Katrina and for a boy, how about-" I was about
to say but Deidra ran in, "It should be Lionel Lindsay Cullen!"
She ran back out laughing, I rolled my eyes and sighed, "I kind of
like it besides the Lindsay part," Edward chuckled.
"Katrina
Lindsay Cullen," I mused, "Now that's a better name."
Edward
nodded and we looked up as Deidra walked in, "If it's Lionel,
then he could be L.C. like Lauren
Conrad!" I grabbed and pillow
and chucked it at her.
"She's ugly," Edward muttered. Deidra
and I looked at him, "What? Alice and Rosalie watch the Hills all
the time."
"Oh," I said.
Deidra scurried out of Edward's
room and I sighed, "So, we have Lionel
Lindsay Cullen for a boy and
Katrina Lindsay Cullen. Please be a girl, or I will feel sorry for
poor Lionel." I rubbed my stomach and giggled, "I hear being
pregnant sucks."
"You should have seen Esme pregnant with
Alice. Carlisle was constantly going to the store for exotic
fruits."
"I still want caviar and watermelon…"
"You
don't like caviar," Edward pointed out.
"Why do you people
just assume things!"
