CHAPTER 10!

BPOV

I was asleep when I heard it the first time. It was a small whimper coming from somewhere in the bedroom. If it had of been any quieter then I would have missed it.

Then it happened again.

What was it?

I opened my eyes to see Edward sitting on the end of the bed cooing to a small bundle in his arms. "Shhhhhh Baby you'll wake Mummy."

"Edward?" I pulled off the covers and crawled down to the end of the bed. In Edward arms was a tiny little baby boy. He had a short fuzzy layer of brown hair in top of his head and the most stunning green eyes. His cute little cherub cheeks were beautifully pink and smooth.

He was adorable.

Edward turned to smile at me. "Go back to sleep love he's fine." He continued to rock the baby gently as it fell asleep.

I yawned before I began to make my way back to bed. Then out of nowhere the baby started to cry. Not just a small whimper like before, this was an ear-splitting scream. And it could mean only one thing.

My baby was in pain.

What was going on? What do I do?

Edward jumped off the bed and quickly placed my baby in my arms. I did everything I could to calm him down but nothing worked. He didn't stop crying, his cute little baby face was contorten into a mask of pure pain.

What was I supposed to do?

I looked to Edward for help. He just stood there looking terrified.

"I'm sorry Bella." He cried. "I have to go." And he ran from the room.

The baby started to scream louder.

Then I woke up.

"I'm sorry Bella. So sorry." Edward whispered as he pulled my shuddering form closer to his. I breathed a sigh of relief.

He was still here.

He didn't say anything else; he just let me cling to him as silent tears poured down my cheeks and onto his shirt.

It had been two weeks since I had told Edward about our baby.

Two very long weeks.

Thankfully the nightmares weren't as severe now as they had been before. I felt so guilty every time I woke from my nightmare. Every time I woke screaming when the dream Edward walked out the door. I didn't want to doubt his intentions but I couldn't help but feel like he was going to disappear at any minute.

I shuddered at the thought of not having him there when I woke up.

Charlie still insisted I should leave Edward and come to stay with him, but I couldn't do that. I needed Edward the same way every normal person needs air. I could breathe when he wasn't there.

I nearly died when I stupidly decided to step into that elevator.

I only made it two floors before I had to force my way out.

Flashback –

"Bella? Bella what are you doing?" Charlie asked as I continued to pummel the button to open the elevator doors.

"I need to get out of here." I sobbed.

I couldn't breathe.

The walls were closing in on me from all four sides.

What had I done?

How could I be so stupid?

"No Bella!" Charlie said, grabbing my arm to stop me rushing out of the elevator. "You need to come home. He's no good for you."

'LET GO OF ME!" I screamed pulling my arm out of his grasp. "I have to go back...He loves me." As soon as the words left my mouth I knew they were true.

He did love me.

He came back!

How could I be so blind?

"Bella if he really loved you then he wouldn't have left you." Charlie said, trying to reason with me as I exited the elevator. "You need to give him some time. Once this all settles down then you can go back and talk. Just not now."

"No I have to...I need to go back...NOW!" I sobbed.

Edward came back.

He said he was committed.

He wanted to be there for our baby and me.

I wanted him there. Every step of the way.

I just needed to know he was serious.

"I have to go back." I said again.

"Don't do this Bella," Charlie begged. "Don't give him a chance to hurt you again."

"I love you Dad." Was all I said as I kissed his cheek and climbed back into the elevator. His stunned face was the last thing I saw before the doors closed.

I was only travelling up two or three floors but the ride seemed to take years. Every moment that I wasn't with him was torture. A fresh wave of tears flooded my eyes when the doors opened again at our floor.

There he was; my own personal miracle.

He was crouched down on the ground with his head resting in his arms. Sobs were shaking his body as he ran his fingers through his hair. He was clearly distressed.

I had done this. I had hurt the only man I ever truly loved.

He looked so broken.

I let out a tiny hiccup before the sobs started up again.

He must have heard me because his head snapped up so he was looking straight at me. Seconds later I was safely wrapped in his arms. I dropped my bag anf wrapped my arms around his waist, crying harder.

"I'm sorry Bella. So, so, so, so, so sorry." He whispered as he kissed every inch of my face.

I needed to make sure he was being honest about what he'd said before.

"Did you really mean it?" I asked looking up at him through my tears.

"Every wo-" I didn't need to hear the rest. Instead I jumped up and capturing his lips in the most passionate kiss I could muster. He froze for a moment before he returned my kiss with just as much enthusiasm.

I had never felt as loved and wanted as I did at that moment. Nothing mattered besides the perfect man in front of me and the tiny baby that I already loved so much. We were the perfect family.

"I love you." I whispered when we eventually broke apart.

He brought his hand up and wiped the lingering tears of my cheeks. Once they were gone he leaned in and pressed his forehead against mine.

His voice was filled with relieved laughter as he said. "I love you too." Then he placed his hand on my stomach again.

"Both of you." He finished.

My heart nearly exploded when he said this.

He really did want this as much as I did.

End Flashback-

At some stage during my reflection I must have fallen asleep because suddenly I was waking up again. I turned mu head to the right only to find Edward wasn't lying next to me.

Instead he was lying halfway down the bed staring at my stomach looking puzzled.

"What are you doing?" I asked, my voice still filled with sleep.

He jumped when I spoke, obviously too engrossed in his thoughts to notice I was now awake. "Just thinking." He mumbled.

"About what?" I asked running my fingers through his soft hair. He smiled as he leaned his head into my hand.

"Our baby." I loved how those words sounded as they fell from his lips.

He really was committed to this baby. I could tell from the way he spoke about it and everything he had done for me that past two weeks. He was desperate to show me that he meant every word he said all those weeks ago.

Every day for the past two weeks when he came to pick me up from work he would bring me something new. Be it a baby bottle or a toy of some kind for our baby. Yesterday he bought home a tiny little T-shirt with "Cullen Baby #1" on the front.

I cried so hard when I saw it, yet as I think back on it now I can't remember why.

"I can't believe that there's actually a baby in here." He said when he returned to scrutinising my stomach.

"Neither can I." I agreed. "Although he is only this big." I pointed out holding up two of my fingers so they were about half a centimetre apart.

"He?" Edward asked. "How do you know it's a he?" He looked so excited.

"I don't know. That's just how he always appears in my dream." I mumbled the last bit hoping he wouldn't hear. I didn't want to make him feel worse than he already did.

Edward seemed to sense my distress and moved up the bed to lie next to me. "Is that what you'd like?"

"What do you mean?"

"Do you have your heart set on a boy? I thought maybe a little girl..." He trailed off drawing lazy lines on my arms raising goose-bumps on my flesh.

I curled up against his side before I said anything. "I can't decide." I would love to have a little girl, with Edward hair and eyes. She would be gorgeous. Although a little boy would be just as perfect and no less loved.

"I just have a feeling that he is a he." I continued. "What do you think?" I looked up at his face to find him looking straight back at me, a huge smile plastered across his face.

"Whatever our baby is will be fine with me. Beside we can always try for more later."

"Let's just wait and see what this one's like before we make any decisions like that. Okay?" I laughed.

Of course this is where my stupid hormone decided to kick in and get me all worked up. What if I was a horrible mother? What if I couldn't get him everything he needs?

"What if he doesn't like me?" I sniffed trying to hold back the tears. I felt Edward stiffen beside me. He still wasn't used to my crazy mood swings and they always seemed to catch him off guard.

"He's going to love you." He assured me. "I should be the one worried about not being liked."

"Don't start this again Edward." I whined. "He...She... Whatever our baby turns out to be. They will love you. You'll do great."

"I hope so." He actually looked worried about this. Seconds later - much faster than I thought possible - his expression changed to one of excitement. "Are you excited about tomorrow?"

"Yes," I squealed in a very Alice like fashion. "How could I not be?"

Tomorrow I got to find out, roughly, when my beautiful baby would be born.
