Disclaimer: I Do Not Own Twilight.
Edward took a deep breath before the elevator doors open, he decided on the way to Bella's apartment that if Bella didn't want to go through with it anymore he would convince her, he didn't care if he had to sell his soul to the devil.
He knocked softly on her door and waited for her to answer for a couple of seconds.
"Hey." Bella told him answering the door, he took notice that she was wearing pajamas but had a subtle hint of make up and straight hair oppose to her natural wavy hair.
"I'm sorry I called you so late, I guess I just over think a lot." She stepped aside to let him pass and guided him to her living room.
"You sounded serious on the phone." She gave him an incredulous look. "Okay maybe a little hysterical." He told her with a chuckle.
"I'm sorry do you want anything to drink?" She remember to ask him before sitting down on her couch.
"No I'm okay, why don't we sit down and talk about you were mumbling about when you called me?" He asked her looking around missing the blush on her cheeks.
The last time he was there he didn't have the opportunity to look around but now he could see photos and diplomas around the room the diplomas he presume belong to her degrees and high school when she graduated, many of the pictures feature Chief Swan, a woman he presume was her mother, a man in baseball gear and Jacob the friend she was with when he and his siblings spied on her.
"Yes I'm sorry about my little freak out." She apologized.
"It's okay Bella just tell me what happened." He implore softly.
"Well I went to dinner with my editor, Christine, my boss Aro and his son Felix, it went okay, wasn't too bad umm after dinner Felix walked me to my car." She hesitated to continue but Edward had a pretty good idea of what Felix had wanted with Bella.
"Well he asked me out and it's not that I wanted to go on a date with him, I mean he's a good kisser I'll give him that." She paused when she saw Edward staring at her with a hard look.
"So you wouldn't go out with him but you kissed him?" Edward asked her sarcastically.
"No no he stole a kiss that wasn't me." She told him with a nervous smile and a tint of pink on her cheeks.
"Okay do you want me to kick his ass?" He told her teasingly but a faint part of him knew he could do so much more than that with a simply word of his lips to the right people or the wrong people in his case.
Thankfully the joke erase some of the tension in the room that had keep building up since he entered the door.
Bella laughed and continued.
"No thanks I'm fine I was just a little shocked, anyway it got me thinking on about a lot of stuff in my life and how I'm living it and I guess I just freaked out and call you since part of me blames you for that little panic attack that I had earlier." She looked at him with sincere eyes hoping he would understand that everything that had been going on between, if there was anything at all, was confusing and incomplete since they didn't even know each other.
Edward stared at the floor, unable to look at her or her apologetic face.
"How so?" He asked her without looking at her.
"Edward a couple weeks ago you got me to agree to have a child with you and I didn't accept out of stupidity or fear or anything like that I said yes because I honestly wanted to have a baby, you telling me how lonely you were made me realize how alone I am and Edward me saying yes is not the problem, what happens after that is because we jumped right into it we didn't sit down and talk about after, tell me Edward what happens after? After I have the baby and we have two separate houses and two separate lives? I grew up like that and although I love my parents a part of me wished that I didn't have to travel miles away to see one and then return to the other, so tell me what do we do when that baby is not in my womb anymore?" The silence that followed shocked her even more, she honestly thought he might have a solution for it, but then she had her naïve moments and God help her she would have eaten anything he told her.
She stood up from the couch and took a wine bottle and two wine glasses from the cabinet, stealing glances from Edward she notices he hadn't even moved an inch.
She poured the red wine and slide a glass in front of him hoping he would take it.
He clear his throat and nodded at the table is refusing to look at her, he didn't want her to see his face because honestly he didn't know what it showed, silently he took the glass and drank the whole thing, her only answer was to pour him more.
An uncomfortable silence followed but neither of them wanted to move as it might disrupt the only thread of trust they had for each other.
Edward knew if he were to walk out the door at that moment, there would be no turning back, no begging her, no talking to her about thinking about it some more. No there would be none of that, leaving felt wrong to him as if any future with Bella might be erase from his sight if he did and that hurt deep in places he didn't know he could hurt before.
Bella didn't know the right thing to say she just knew they were things she needed to say but not like this, not while he didn't show her his face, she presume there was a motive for that, for not showing her the emotions he could display there, she felt as if she had taking a big knife and stabbed him in the back although she didn't know why, maybe it was the fact that he told her all his secrets, he had been so vulnerable and now she felt like she had betrayed him by shoving those insecurities in his face as if his dreams of having a baby were not good enough for her and her expectations.
She felt a tear on her cheek, she didn't know why it was there but the soft hand that took it away felt nice against her cheek, the smoothness and the electricity radiating from it left her breathless.
Edward took notice of her crying face and without notice took it away feeling what she felt that electricity that him breathless as well, but instead of dropping his hand he let it linger if anything to feel the warm that she radiated.
They stared at each other for what to Bella seemed endless time but she didn't mind not when the moon reflected on his eyes and she could see even through all the pain that they shown how much they shine, but she decided silently to herself that pain didn't belong in them.
Taking the hand that was still on her cheek and gripping with her own she finally spoke again.
"Edward I'm not saying that I don't want to have a baby with because I do, I'm not backing out, in two weeks I'm going to be there with you in that doctor's office I promise you but there are things that need to be thought over before than, okay?" She pulverized the dread that had been haunting him since she called him.
"Yes, thank you Bella." He told her while he took another sip of the wine.
"And I'm sorry that I might have led you to believe otherwise, that was never my intention." She told him loosening the grip she had on his hand, but instead of letting her go, he grips her harder and circle her waist with his hand, engulfing her in a hug.
And she let him hold her because for now that hug and all those promises were the only things they could give to each other.
The tornado of emotions let them both exhausted and like that they fell sleep in each others' arms.

"Come on where are you?" He called out through the hallway, the faint aroma of freesias lingering as he walked.
He heard giggling coming from his bedroom and with a chuckle entered the room pretending to yawn.
"Well I'm tired I guess I'm just going to lie here and take a nap since I'm so tired." He dramatically fell on the bed and closed his eyes waiting for the tiny footsteps to start.
He could feel the bed dip and with eyes half open, he grabbed his son by his tiny waist and tickle him.
"Found you!" He told him while the giggles increase.
"No daddy stop it! Stop!" His little boy cried to him as his hands and legs kicked around trying to hit his father.
"Okay I'll stop if you give me a kiss." Edward told him and his son nodded but as soon as he let him go he ran to the door.
"Hey no that's cheating! Come back!" Edward ran after him all the way to the kitchen, as they were about to enter his son stopped him.
"What's wrong?" Edward asked him.
"Mommy said we couldn't go in there until she was done making breakfast." His son told him smartly.
"Why?" Edward asked him frowning, something felt odd to him.
"Because my little sister gets fussy." He told him proudly of saying his sister.
"Why would she get fussy?" Edward asked him with a smile.
"Because mommy said every time she sees you, she wants you to carry her and then mommy said she was being a daddy's girl." He told his daddy whispering so his mommy wouldn't hear them.
Edward laughed.
"Look Uncle Emmett is here." His son told him cheerfully.
Edward turned around to see Emmett standing there.
"EDWARD WAKE UP!"
Edward slowly opened his eyes and notice how different his bed felt, rubbing his eyes he sat up and notice he wasn't in his room at all.
He groaned when he faintly remember Bella dragging him somewhere after they fell sleep on her couch .
He groaned again when he heard Emmett's ring tone coming from his cellphone, he also took noticed of the time before he answered, it was ten twenty six, a little late for him to be waking up.
"What?" He answer annoyed at being woken up but also a little grateful since this wasn't his house.
"Where are you man? Mom when to your house this morning and she couldn't find you so she's freaking out! Have you check your phone at all this morning?" Emmett answer him annoyed as well.
"No I'm sorry, ummm I'm at Bella's." He answer while going to the bathroom attached to the bedroom, he sincerely hoped that this wasn't her bedroom, upon entering he notice a toothbrush still on the package, toothpaste and mouth wash on the sink, he silently thank her until he could verbally.
"You stud! Well why didn't you say so? You guys already practicing making that baby?" Emmett was having his fun while Edward rolled his eyes and continued to quickly brush his teeth.
"No Emmett we didn't do that okay?we just talked and I guess we just fell asleep okay? Nothing major." Edward told him once he was done with his dental hygiene.
"In any case I'll call my mom, tell her you're at Bella's, so just enjoy breakfast Eddie." Emmett told him before he could get anything else out of his mouth.
Edward sighed but took notice of the fact that he had no shoes on, once they were on him he proceeded to search for Bella.
The apartment wasn't big and he found her quickly, she was making something but he could figure it was eggs and bacon since those were the smells his nose was giving him.
"Good Morning." He told her and had the pleasure of startling her.
"Morning, how did you sleep?" She asked him as she continued mixing the eggs, trying not give away her nervousness.
"I slept well thank you for uuhh taking care of me I guess." He told her sheepishly.
"It's okay would you like some breakfast?" She asked him with a smile.
"Yeah that would lovely thank you." He would have refused but her statement last night about not knowing each other stroke a chord.
Bella served him a plate with eggs, bacon, toast and served a cup of juice.
He thanked her and noticed her plate was already on the table, with a orange juice and ketchup on the side.
"You like your eggs with ketchup?" He teased her as she sat down across from him.
"I do they're good you should try it." She told him continuing his banter.
He made a face and she laughed at him, they continue eating with small talk about their families and Edward had to admit it was very pleasant he wouldn't mind doing it again.
"Bella could I tell you something?" He asked her while helping dry the plates they had just used.
"Yeah sure." She answer softly.
"Well I had a dream last night, remember when I told you about my dreams?" She nodded and he continued.
"Well I'm used to just one specific dream but last night was different, I didn't have one I had two kids, a boy and a girl." She looked at him amazed.
"I hope you are not saying you want twins because I don't think my body can handle that." She answered him.
He laughed and shook his head.
"Good." Bella told him as she put the orange juice away.
He was pleasantly surprised to notice that there was no awkwardness between them and with that thought in mind he told her goodbye and gave her a promise of calling her later so they could to dinner and talk further about the baby.
He had to admit life was good for him right know.

"Anything new?" The man sitting on the park bench would have stroke anybody as a good will old man , too bad appearances are deceiving.
"Yes sir, Cullen has been hanging around a girl, from what we were able to find out her name is Isabella Swan, they went to a clinic and he slept at her house last night." The young man could have been the old man's son if it wasn't for the fact that they weren't related at all.
"A clinic? What kind of clinic?" The old man asked him patiently.
"A fertility clinic." The young man answer quickly.
The old man gave a laugh and smile.
"Well well it appears mister Cullen might be trying to bring the next generation of mafia leaders to life eh?" He asked rhetorically.
"Why don't we make sure, the girl and the baby are taking care of at the right time eh?" He asked his young companion.
"Sir aren't we going to do something now?" The young man asked.
"Oh no I've learned it is better to seat and watch until the right moment comes and when It does let's hope mister Cullen has a really good security system."
