My dreams weren't happy ones but I still slept through the entire night, but that probably had more to do with Leah sleeping next to me more than anything else. When I eventually got out of bed and made my way to the kitchen I found a note on the table letting me know that Emmett would be coming by the apartment to pick me up for my meeting with Jessica and that I shouldn't leave the apartment without him. Of course I thought Edward was being ridiculous but when I tried to prove him wrong and leave I couldn't even push the button to call the elevator up.

After I ate a bowl of cereal and got dressed for the day I decided to play with my new phone. The only number it had programmed in it was my dad's so I entered all of the other important numbers that I might need. Since that didn't take too long I also decided to set ringtones for certain people. I gave my dad Butterfly Fly Away By Miley Cyrus, Emmett and Jasper shared The Joker by The Steve Miller Band, then Alice and Rosalie got Girls Just Wanna Have Fun By Cindi Lauper. It took a while for me to find the perfect fit for Edward but when I heard Jason Castro's That's What I'm Here For I couldn't help but thinking of him it just seemed to be a perfect fit.

I was so caught up in what I was doing with my phone that I didn't even hear when Emmett came in the apartment until I looked up and he was eating a sandwich and watching TV in the chair across from me. "Hey Emmett." He lifted his head to look at me, "Bella you should really be more aware of what's going on around. I could have been that son of a bitch coming in here. You didn't even turn around to look at me when I came in." I didn't feel the need to tell him that my biggest fear wasn't Jacob getting in the apartment when I was alone but him getting in while someone else was with me. I knew all too well the danger anyone would be in if they were up here with me. Although being alone wasn't smart for me at least then no one else would be hurt.

I saw that his plate was clear so I took it from him and put it in the sink which was when I noticed the time. "Emmett I need to take Leah for a walk before we leave." I slipped my shoes on and Leah came running to me with her leash in her mouth, which was a new trick she had learned. I took my time pressing the button and I took even longer stepping onto the elevator when the doors opened. I almost jumped out of my skin when Emmett stepped into the small compartment with me. "You didn't think you could get rid of me that easily did you?" I couldn't help but smile up at him and it was like he knew I was silently thanking him.

The ride to the hospital was short and quiet. The only sound in his jeep was the blaring heavy metal music that shook the entire frame. When I walked into the hospital I felt like I had gone deaf because of how quiet it was. Emmett, of course, escorted me up to the office and gave me a tight hug before he left. I surprised myself by not being scared of him when he first pulled me to him. Edward was talking to the receptionist when I signed in and he gave me a worried smile. I knew he was worried about my first session with Jessica, possibly even more so than I was.

It wasn't long before I was called back to join Jessica. Her office wasn't what I expected of her. She seemed like the kind of girl who would be bright and colorful but her office was basic blue and grays with black furniture. Everything from her desk to the couch I was to sit on was black. Our fist session was just covering the basics. She told me what she expected of me and some homework I would need to do for her like keep a journal especially during Jacob's trial. She had me explain my history with Jacob in a nutshell no details were brought out in the first session but it was still emotional for me to talk about the two different Jacob's, the one I loved and the one I now hate.

After my session Edward was waiting for me in the waiting room. I followed him down stairs but stopped when he climbed into a big blue truck. When he saw the confusion on my face he told me it was Jasper's truck and he was letting us use it so we could go and get my belongings from the house. Of course I had forced myself to forget that plan for today but he was right I had things I needed to get from there and since he and the police could do it today I figured there's no time like the present. Although I had full faith in both of the officers that were meeting us there I still called my dad and asked him to be there which he of course agreed to.

He was waiting for us on the side of the road when we got there and Edward followed him down the mile long driveway. My breathing stopped when I saw not only Jacob standing there with the police officers but Billy and Sam were there as well. Edward reached over and held my hand until I was ready to get out of the car. When I did finally get out of the car dad and Edward were both at my side ready to pounce on anyone who even looked at me funny.

I ignored all the looks I was getting from both Billy and Sam, who both thought I was making all of this up, and got straight down to business. Dad stood outside of the bedroom door while Edward helped me pack my clothes and jewelry. I packed everything in that room that was mine and left my wedding and engagement rings on Jacob's bedside table so he was sure to see them. After I was done in the bedroom I grabbed the few things that I refused to leave in the living room because they were either my personal belongings or my family heirlooms.

After everything was packed and loaded in the truck I did one last sweep of the house to make sure nothing of mine was being left. If I could help it I never wanted to place a foot in this house again. I felt a hand on my shoulder as I stood in the front hallway staring at the steps I was once chained to and I turned and pushed whoever it was away before letting the tears fall. When I looked up I saw the hurt face of Edward looking at me. I couldn't tell if he was hurt because I rejected him or hurt because he saw the pain I was in, but it didn't matter. Once I saw it was him and not Jake I ran to him and he held me until I was able to get a hold of myself.

My dad cleared his throat from the kitchen doorway and held up some keys. "What about your car Bells?" I shook my head as much as I could against Edward's chest, "Leave it. Jacob bought the car and it doesn't run. He made sure of that the first night." He shut his eyes and closed his fist around the keys in his hand. I left the safety of Edward's arms to go to my dad. As soon as my hand touched his shoulder he relaxed his fist and let the keys fall to the floor. "Com on dad, it's time to go." He draped his right arm over my shoulders as we walked out of the house and only let go when I had to go tell the police I was done.

I felt both Edward and dad tense when the police called Jacob over to us to let him know I was done and that he could go back inside. They both turned to head to their cruiser before I could step away which gave Jacob the perfect opportunity to reach out and grab my arm stopping me from walking away. Even though I knew he wouldn't do anything in front of all these witnesses but that didn't stop my heart from racing. "Bella please," "Jake let go." "don't do this. I love you." "Let go of me." "Let us talk about this. I'm sorry for what I did and," "JAKE!" "I promise it will be different if you come back." I was shaking and his hand wasn't loosening it grip on my arm. If anything it was getting tighter.

I felt my dad standing right behind me and Edward was behind him both ready to pounce on Jacob if need be. "Jacob let her go." Even Billy telling him to let me go wasn't working. I gasped when my dad pulled out his gun, "Jacob Q'wati Black I swear if you don't let my daughter go right now I will shoot you in head." Billy ran to us and started prying his son hand off of me. "Charlie put the gun away. He let her go now please put your gun away." When he didn't lower his gun I placed my hands on his pushing the gun down and forcing him to look at me, "It's time to go dad." He gave a short quick nod before turning and heading to his cruiser.

Edward guided me over to the truck as Billy called out a thank you for stopping Charlie which I ignored. I silently cried throughout the entire ride back to Edward's apartment.

Even though it felt like a lot of stuff when we first packed it unloading it only took ten minutes, of course being able to hold the personal elevator until everything was loaded and unloaded helped speed things up. Edward took Leah for a quick walk while I started empting my boxes. The hardest ones were those from the living room because they were nick-knacks and things I didn't want to get broken but I didn't want to move Edward's stuff around either. I settled for leaving it packed and placed it in the closet that was not over filled with clothes.

Edward was sitting on the couch watching some TV show I had never heard of and had absolutely no interest in watching. When I sat on the couch next to him he turned the TV off and grabbed my hand dragging me to the elevator. "Where are we going?" He draped his arm over my shoulders as the elevator descended. "I thought I told you, Emmett and Rose are having everyone over for dinner tonight. We don't have to go if you don't want. I just need to give Jasper his truck back." I elbowed him in the rib, "Don't be ridiculous. Even if I didn't want to go, which isn't the case, you should still go." I would have felt terrible if he would have stayed behind because I didn't want to go. However we always had fun when we all got together I could use some fun after the day I had.

Edward laughed at me as I danced in my seat to Jaspers country music that was in his CD player. Normally I don't listen to that kind of music but it was nice to try something different. It just got better when Edward joined in the foolishness and started belting out the songs in the worst southern accent I had ever heard.

We pulled up to a brick house with a double garage that had Edward's car parked in the driveway. I was amazed by the size of their yard considering we were still in the city. I could tell from the outside that the house had two floors and it was beautiful. Edward didn't even stop to knock on the door before he put a key in the lock and walked right in. "Do you all have keys to each others homes?" He held the key up and shrugged, "It makes it easier you know incase of an emergency." I nodded understanding what he was saying.

Immediately after we stepped in the house I stopped after smelling something that made my stomach churn. I covered my mouth and nose while still trying to be polite. "Edward, Bella we're all in here!" I heard Rose yelling from what I assumed was the kitchen because as we got closer to her voice the smell got stronger. "Edward, where's the bathroom?" He pointed down a hall, "First door on your right." I said a quick thank you before running down the hall and into the bathroom. I made it just in time to get my head in the toilet before I threw up everything that was in my stomach.

I sat there hugging the side of the toilet until I felt slightly better. I rinsed out my mouth but as soon as I opened the door and the smell hit me again I went back to dry heaving over the toilet. I wasn't sure how long I was in there when I heard knocking on the door that I refused to respond to. Of course this wasn't something they were ok with so when my phone rang blasting Jason Castro I had to answer it. "Bella are you alright?" I groaned into the phone which was enough to let Edward know I wasn't ok.

Of course there is a plus side to having him and Jasper being doctors. I figured it was just a small case of the flu or maybe my nerves were finally catching up from the bad day. Of course after the check up Jasper gave me he asked everyone to leave us alone for a few moments. Edward silently asked me if I was going to be ok and I nodded. We were in the bathroom and I was sitting on the countertop while Jasper was sitting on the edge of the tub. "Bella you don't have a fever so I don't think it's the flu. It's possible that it could be from stress but considering that you said the smell of dinned triggered you getting sick." I knew where he was going with this and I didn't want to hear it.

I covered my ears and tried to ignore him but he wouldn't allow me to ignore him. He came over and pulled my hands down from my ears. "Bella if you are," I covered his mouth stopping him from saying it. Somehow hearing him say it seemed to just make it real not that it wasn't already real. He pulled my hand down from his mouth right before there was a knock on the door. I hadn't noticed that he had sent Alice away but she stuck her head in the door and handed him a bag from Wal-greens. I panicked when I saw what was in it. Alice smiled, "I didn't tell anyone they all think I got you stuff for the flu." I smiled before taking the box from Jasper.

Both he and Alice left the bathroom so that I could take the test. It was the longest two minutes of my life waiting for that stupid test to reveal my future. I didn't know what I was going to do if the test came back positive. After actually getting away from the house and Jacob I figured I was done with all of his drama, but I guess I was wrong. I looked down at the test and sobbed when I saw what was flashing on the stupid stick in my hands.

I'm pregnant.
