10. A Father's Worry

Chapter 10: A Father's Worry

Edward's POV

I couldn't help but worry about my baby girl when we hung up. I was always worried about her. Perhaps I was more worried then I should be.!

I couldn't help it though. She was everything to me. I loved her more then anything. I didn't show it often enough but I did.

My daughter reminded me of Bella so much and that hurt. It hurt a lot. That's what made it difficult for me to be around her sometimes. It could be something small like when she moves a certain way or a personality trait that she shares with her mother. Or sometimes it's her looks. She looks more like me then her mother but I could still see Bella in her as well. Her chocolate brown eyes for one.

No matter what though I loved my daughter. She was everything to me. She was part Bella so how could I not love her? Even now, after my worst fear come true, it still sickens me to think that I actually wanted to get rid of her at one point. How could I ever think she was a monster? She was the sweetest most caring daughter that I could ever ask for.

If anything ever happened to my Nessie I'd go crazy for sure. I could only take so much loss. Nessie was the only thing keeping me sane after losing Bella. If it weren't for her I'd have gone crazy a long time ago.

That's one of the reasons I didn't want Nessie to date anyone. I was afraid of what would happen to her in a relationship. Vampires were way stronger then she was. He could accidentally hurt her if he wasn't being careful.

I was even more opposed to a hybrid-human relationship. They were just much to dangerous. Thanks to me Bella was dead. If Nessie accidentally took things to far with a human boy and she killed him, well, I honestly was scared how she would handle or get over something like that. I knew first hand what it was like to lose someone you love as a result of your own actions. I didn't want Nessie to go through the pain that I did. I couldn't bare to see her live all the pain that I've lived these years.

Then there was always the risk of what a pregnancy would do to Nessie. If Nessie being pregnant put her life at risk and she died just like Bella did I would go crazy. It wasn't a risk that I was willing to take with my daughter. She couldn't get pregnant and run the risk that it kills her in the end like it did with Bella.

Those are all the reasons I couldn't let my precious baby girl get involved with anyone. It was not worth risking her life. She meant to much to me to ever risk losing.
