Chapter 13: An Unwanted Surprise
A/N: RECAP OF LAST CHAPTER- Bella finally decides to give her virginity to Jacob, and they have an amazing night. She dreams about it, except she's with Jasper.
It's been two weeks since that night.
I woke up in the morning to Jacob kissing my face all over.
We looked deeply into each other's eyes and smiled.
"Good morning, beautiful," Jacob said.
"Good morning. But do you really think I'm beautiful covered in sweat? Damn, you've got it bad."
I winked, and we both laughed.
"I always think you're beautiful."
"Well, thanks, Jakey. You're not so bad yourself."
He grinned and said, "You can take a shower first if you want."
I nodded and kissed him on the nose.
I got out of bed and skipped to the shower.
I turned on the water and sighed as the warm liquid covered my body.
I felt great about sharing my love with Jacob, but what was up with those dreams about Jasper?
I didn't dwell on it much longer and finished washing up.
I felt really sick all of a sudden and threw up into the toilet.
I washed my face, but I still felt slightly sick.
I brushed my teeth and went to the bedroom, in search of clothes.
I began to get dressed, and Jacob went to go shower.
About ten minutes later, he came out with a sullen expression on his face.
"Bella, I have to tell you something."
I was worried and began to think that maybe he regretted sleeping me.
I sat down on the couch and looked down.
"Do you regret it?" I whispered, barely hearing myself.
"What?" He looked taken aback.
"Do you regret that night? What we did?" I said, barely raising my voice.
He ran over to me and cupped my face in his hands.
"No. Of course not. How could you possibly think that?" he asked and kissed me sweetly. "It's about something else having to do with that night."
I nodded for him to continue.
Then, he whispered, "I didn't use a condom."
Shit. We totally forgot.
"It's okay. It'll be okay."
"Yeah. Because you're on the pill, right?" he asked, looking relieved.
I bit my lip and looked away.
"Not exactly…"
"What?"
"I left them in Forks. I didn't think I'd need them. I've been off awhile," I said, quietly.
He ran his hand over his face and mumbled, "Shit."
I stood up and said, "I'll go get a pregnancy test. I'll be back soon."
I began to walk to the door, but Jacob grabbed my wrist.
"You're not doing this alone."
Then, he pulled me into his warm embrace, and I sighed.
We both pulled away and walked to the door.
We walked to the drug store, and I grabbed three different tests.
Jacob paid for them, and we left.
When we got home, I drank a glass of water and went into the bathroom.
I took the test and looked at it.
A pink plus.
I gasped and walked out.
"Positive. I'll take another one in thirty minutes."
Jake nodded and held me close.
I suddenly felt sick. I ran to the bathroom and leaned over the toilet.
Jacob rushed in and held my hair back.
I washed my face again, brushed my teeth, and looked at Jacob.
He sighed and hugged me again.
Thirty minutes later, I retook the test, but it was a different brand.
Another positive plus.
Shit.
I ran out and threw myself at Jacob, crying.
"I'm pregnant. I'm so sorry," I sobbed.
He smoothed my hair and said, "It's okay. I'll help you take care of the baby."
I nodded, but continued to cry.
That explains why I was getting sick.
This is just great.
"Let's not tell people for a while, okay?" I said, after a great deal of silence.
He nodded. "Of course, Bells."
"I love you, Jake."
He smiled. "I love you more."
I looked into his eyes and replied, "Impossible."
He kissed me sweetly, and I smiled.
----------------------
Another week passed, and I was becoming a little irritable and snappy.
The morning sickness got slightly worse, but Jacob helped me through everything.
I had fallen head over heels in love with him, but still dreamed about Jasper.
I don't know how Jacob couldn't hear me moaning his name in the middle of the night, which I'm sure I did with the types of dreams I was having.
And then again, maybe Jake did hear, but decided not to say anything.
I was knocked out of my thoughts by my phone buzzing on the end table.
Jasper.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Bella. What's up?" he asked.
I still hadn't told him that I was pregnant.
"Nothing really. Just watching Romeo and Juliet again. Jake's out getting me some Tylenol and stuff."
"What's wrong?" He sounded worried.
"Just a headache. So what about you?"
"I'm just sitting here, reading a book."
"Another Civil War book?" I asked. He read them so much.
"No. Actually…um…Wuthering Heights. You left your book here one day." he said sheepishly.
"Oh. That's cool…"
"I miss you, Bella. Come home. Please."
He broke the silent pact.
"Jasper! No, I don't want to! I'm happy here! I have Jacob and my mom! Why can't you understand that you need to let me go?!"He was sobbing.
"Because we never let go of the ones we love."
"Well, I love you, and I want you to be happy!" I yelled and hung up.
I didn't mean to be snappy, but I didn't want to talk about it.
Jake and I had already discussed moving back there.
We had to.
We had to leave Florida because of the baby.
