Broken Open

Chapter 11

BPOV

I heard footsteps and sat up.

I saw Jasper's bag at the foot of the stairs and smiled.

I'd been such a bitch to him lately and now I knew why, I couldn't wait to tell him I was pregnant again.

But, would he be happy? I mean it was soon, it wasn't planned, but it was our baby, so it shouldn't matter, right.

He walked down the stairs and stopped, looked at me and smiled.

One smiled form him and I lost it and started crying.

"Bella, what's wrong darlin'?" Jasper asked.

I threw my arms around his neck and hugged him tightly. "I love you Jasper Whitlock!" I exclaimed as I kissed him with all the love I had.

"I love you too Isabella Whitlock. But, what brought this on?"

I had my legs wrapped around him and was kissing his neck.

"Jasper, you're going to be a dad, again. We're pregnant." I smiled.

His face dropped and I slid down his body.

"You aren't happy." I stated.

"No, honey, you just caught me off guard is all. he smiled a nervous smile.

"I'm going to do my laundry, you rest, I'll be right back." he picked up his bag and headed to the laundry room.

I laid on the couch watching T.V., Jasper came back a few minutes later, picking up my feet and sitting with me, rubbing my feet.

"What do you have planned today darlin'?" Jasper asked.

"I need to go to the store. Edison will be back tomorrow and he and Edward will be staying for dinner and there's nothing in the house to eat." I replied.

Jasper crawled up my body, telling me he had everything he needed to survive in front of him.

We ended up having the most amazing sex we'd had in a long time, I went shopping and he stayed with the babies.

Edward and Edison got back late Sunday afternoon, Jasper got them from the airport.

Edison ran inside giving hugs, telling me he missed me and showing me all the things they'd brought back.

We ate a nice dinner before I drove Edward home and told him about being pregnant.

"I could tell." he smiled.

"What?" I asked.

"The last time you were pregnant, you simply glowed and this time, you're even more in love and glowing even brighter." he smiled, gave me a hug and told me he was happy for us.

The next couple of weeks passed the same as always, Jasper working and the hustle and bustle of Edison starting school.

I was out shopping and waiting in the check out line and flipping through a gossip magazine when I saw it.

A picture of Jasper, in California, drinking whiskey, really, there's no mistaking it the caption read

'Music Executive Jasper Whitlock enjoys his whiskey and his women!'

And then the second picture, Jasper kissing a woman in a hallway.

I felt sick, I had to get out of there.

I knew the manager, I saw him and told him I was feeling sick and told him to charge my groceries to my card and have them delivered.

I raced home and ran to my room, luckily Esme had the babies today and Edison was in school.

Alice was on a business trip and Rose had her own problems, so I called Edward. "Edward. I need you to come right away, please." I begged.

"Are you alright? The babies?" he asked frantically.

"Yes, but please, I need to talk, just use your key." I said exhausted into the phone.

I laid on my bed and cried, a few moments later I felt arms wrap around me and someone rocking me.

"Edward, Jasper was drinking again in California and- and, he was kissing another woman and-and, I'm pregnant." I sobbed into his chest.

"That fucker, I'm going to kill him." Edward mumbled.

"Edward, I want him out of here, please. It's in the fucking magazines." I was crying again.

"Bells, I'm so sorry. Do you need me to stay with you and the kids for a few days, make sure you're O.K.?" Edward asked.

"No. But if you could arrange for someone to get Edison to and from school and soccer practice the next couple of weeks, that'd be great." I smiled a small smile.

Edward nodded and continued stroking my hair until I fell asleep.

I awoke to loud voices downstairs.

I sat up in bed and looked at my clock, it was after midnight.

"What the fuck do you think you were doing Jasper? You promised no more drinking! Not only that but you weren't just kissing some random whore you actually FUCKED her!" that was Carlisle's voice.

I ran down the stairs, falling at the bottom two.

"Shit, Bella are you O.K." Jasper ran over to me.

"Get your fucking hands off me. Did I just hear Carlisle right? You fucked another woman? Why Jasper? Why? Was your family here not good enough for you?" I screamed as tears rolled down my face and I collapsed on the floor.

"Edward, carry her to the car, she needs to go to the hospital, I'm afraid she'll miscarry, with all this stress." Carlisle said.

"Carlisle, I want Jasper and all his things out! I want a divorce drawn up tomorrow. He can have visitation at your home only and only if he's sober. I just want out Carlisle, I'm sorry. I still love you and Esme, but I can't do this anymore." I put my head on Edwards chest as he took me to the car. I chanced a peek at Jasper as Carlisle told him to pack his necessities, he could get the rest later, he look lost and lonely, well too bad, he did it to himself.

We arrived at the hospital and Carlisle's worst suspicions were confirmed I'd miscarried.

I guess I started spotting in the car, but I'd been cramping all day, I didn't tell them, because I was to weak to get out of bed.

I laid in bed and cried, Carlisle walked in and sat beside me. "Bells, I know it's been a rough day and I saw what the magazine said and I'm really sorry. I just want to let you know, Jasper is going to be staying in our guest house, I just wanted to let you know, so when you come over with the babies to visit. But, we'll make sure he stays away, I promise. He's our son and I don't condone what he did, but I need to keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't slip into a drunken stupor." Carlisle gave me a weak smile.

I nodded in understanding and told him I was tired and needed sleep.

He turned off the light and walked out and I cried myself to sleep.

It had been two months and I was doing better.

The babies were walking and getting into everything.

I'd avoided Jasper, our divorce was proceeding without incident, he wanted to work things out, but I told him there was no way because he had lied about the drinking and the cheating.

I had help from all my family and friends and Edward was a life saver, he was always helping me out with Edison, he wasn't comfortable with the babies, which was fine, but he took Edison out a lot and they had a wonderful relationship now, Edison wouldn't even speak to Jasper and I told him that was his choice.

Emmett and Rose came over quite often, Rose waddling around, being bitchier than ever, Alice and Dmitri had their wedding coming up and I was actually looking forward to that, I was Alice maid of honor and Dmitri's cousin, Felix was his best man, we were all going to dinner tonight, so I could meet him and get to know him before all the events started.

Alice had dragged me to their house and gotten me ready in a green sweater dress and cream colored boots, leaving my hair down in soft waves and light natural make up.

Alice wore a simple black dress with black stilettos and her signature spiky hair.

As we came downstairs, the guys were waiting at the bottom for us and I saw a man almost as big as Emmett standing there in charcoal dress pants, black shirt with the sleeves rolled up and black dress shoes and the entire outfit topped off with a vest, damn he looked good.

I had to divert my gaze before he noticed or Alice noticed.

"Felix, this is Bella, Bella this is Felix." Dmitri smiled and Felix took my hand and kissed it.

"The pleasure is all my tonight Bella." he smiled.

Alice and I both giggled at that and then were escorted to the car by the guys.

I made Alice sit with me in the back seat, I didn't want to be alone with a strange guy in the backseat of a car.

We arrived at the restaurant and were seated in a private corner, Felix pulling out my chair and being a gentleman.

We had a wonderful dinner, while we were waiting for our dessert, I heard a familiar laugh and looked up and turned pale, it was Jasper, his arm was around the waist of a blond and she looked pregnant, I excused myself to go to the bathroom, not realizing I'd have to go straight past them, I ran past and bumped right into him. "Bella, what are you doing here?" he asked surprised as he retreated his arm quickly.

"I could ask you the same, but I think I already know." I lifted my chin and walked towards the bathroom.

When I came out I had to pass by their table and he grabbed my wrist.

"Bella, please. Can I explain?" he pleaded with his eyes.

Just then, Felix walks up and placed a hand on my shoulder. "Is there something wrong here?"

Jasper removed his hand, and said"No, nothing." and I walked away with Felix.

"Are you O.K. Bella? Did that guy hurt you?" Felix asked.

"No, Felix. That was my soon to be ex-husband." I sighed.

"Oh, sorry." he mumbled.

"Hey, let's not let that get in the way of Alice's dinner tonight, deal?" I smiled at him and he nodded.

We came back to the table smiling and Alice looked at me with a question in her eyes and I just shook my head and smiled.

We finished up and left, deciding to go back to Alice and Dmitri's to play games and talk, instead of a club as planned.

We had a wonderful evening and Alice drove me home later, she questioned me about Felix.

"So? What did you think?" she giggled.

"Alice, you evil pixie! Setting me up on a DATE and I'm not even divorced yet!" I giggled back at her.

I told her Felix was nice and sweet, he wasn't scared off by my three children or Edward and mines relationship.

I hugged Alice goodnight and went inside with hope and happiness for a bright future and slept peacefully that night.

Never expecting a knock on my door at 7:30am or the fact that I opened my door smiling
