The weekend went pretty fast and I got a lot done. It was nice that my dad wasn't around most of the weekend otherwise that would have raised too many questions. I wouldn't have been able to use my vampire speed and now that my mind is slowly expanding itself into my vampire mind so I am able to retain more and more information as this pregnancy progresses. I got all my homework done for the entire week and read all my required texts completely so I now new everything that was in all the books, cleaned the house, did the laundry and made meals for the rest of the week and put them in the refrigerator.

Sunday night my dad came back from fishing with Billy and his other Rez friends. When he saw the house being spotless, that I had all the laundry done and put away from both him and myself, and that I had meals prepared for the entire week he was somewhat confused because he was only gone for two days and the amount of work done should have taken a normal person a week to complete, but chose not to dwell on it too much. That was a relief.

It is now 6 am Monday morning I am not sure why I was in such a hurry when school didn't start until 8:30 and I wouldn't see the principal until 8am. I wasn't expected to see Edward until lunch time because that is when he told me that his family was due back from their hunting trip. Come to think of it I am actually wide awake. I am not usually this perky in the morning, must be more of a vampire thing since soon I won't be sleeping at all. I just can't shed the feeling that I am about to see Edward a lot sooner than expected and that I am going to get a wonderful surprise this morning. Maybe that is why I feel like I am in such a hurry.

Before I inadvertently expose new self to my dad by racing around the house vampire speed I first tried to listen for his thoughts…Nothing. Well that could be because he is still sleeping. Then I tried to tune into his heart beat or breathing…again nothing. Ok he must have left the house already.

Let see if I can locate him to make sure that he is indeed at work. I closed my eyes and concentrated on his essence. I was instantly transported—not literally of Course—to the station. I still can't get use to the fact that when I track someone it feels like I am actually there with them and experiencing the same things they are except in my own perspective. He was at his desk just as his officers walked in. "Good morning chef, what can I do for you today? You're here early I don't think we were expecting our boss to show up until 7am. Anything exciting happening in this small town of ours that caused you to arrive earlier than expected?" "No Matt I just couldn't sleep and when I woke up I decided to get a start on my day. I have a lot on my mind. There are things happening in our little town but nothing that concerns the station. I left before my daughter woke up." "How is your daughter by the way, she is she causing you stress. Teenage daughters can do that." "No, nothing's wrong. I just need to get back to work." "Ok Chief let me know if you need anything." I watched as the officer Matt walked out of my father's office. My dad muttered too low for humans to hear. "I need to make more money; my daughter is having triplets and will need my help." I left the scene quickly. Poor Charlie he is stressed. He thinks that he has to work more hours because I am pregnant. I am going to have to have a talk to him about that. He doesn't need to support me anymore, at least not for long anyway. Then I raced around the house quickly, got dressed in a matter of seconds, made breakfast, and then before I left the house I saw that it was only 6:10am. Geez that didn't take long at all wonder if all vampires are this fast.

As soon as I got outside I saw that Edward was waiting by my car with an amused look on his face. As soon as I saw him I ran to him and gave him a passionate kiss on the lips. God I missed him. I can't wait until I can go hunting with him. Then it dawned on me. I was so preoccupied I didn't even bother to tune into his thoughts, but that doesn't really matter and am just so glad that he was back and I am in his arms again.

"Hey Edward what's so funny?"

"I was about to go visit you and wait for you to get up but when I saw that you were up I decided to wait out here for you, especially once I saw that you were in such a hurry and were going to be coming outside shortly anyway. I thought it was kind of comical to see you whiz vampire speed all over your house. I am surprised that you didn't rip you clothes in the process when you got dressed this morning. I have never seen a vampire or in your case an almost vampire do that. That was impressive but at the same time funny. You did everything in 10 minutes, so we have a lot of spare time this morning. What do you want to do this morning? "

I can think of a lot of things I want to do. Like make love to you but first I have something to ask you. It's a surprise so don't even bother looking into the future, and I am also going to try and not think about what I am going to surprise you with either. ~Edward

"Fine I won't look into the future and try not to listen to your thoughts either. I have a feeling what my surprise is going to be, however."

"Tell me what you think your surprise is."

"I can't believe I am saying this I hate surprises, but no I won't tell you what I feel you are going to surprise me with I don't want to ruin the moment. I am curious as to where we are going to go this morning. I know we are not going back to your house and we are not staying here, so I want to know where it is you are taking me."

"That is part of the surprise so I can't tell you those specific details just yet."

"Fine, don't tell me then. I do have one request I have to be at school at 8am. That is when my vision stated that I was going to meet with the principal. "

"Don't worry we will be back plenty of time."

I let Edward drive my car because I had no idea where we are going. My visions of the future didn't help me much either, not that I was really trying to cheat, however I was a little curious about the destination. About 10 minutes later I knew exactly where we were going, the meadow.

We got out of the car and right after we had a mini make out session. Edward turned to me and asked me if I wanted to race him.

"Sure that sounds fun" We arrived the exact same time.

"I forget you are as fast as I am. It's nice that I have someone that can keep up with me." He said with a grin.

I tried to tune out Edward's thoughts but it wasn't easy. I still got some bits and pieces and I was right.

I am gonna ask….. Hope she accepts….. Why am I so nervous….. Hope talk with her dad went well. ~Edward

"Edward, please calm yourself down and stop being so nervous. I can feel your emotions, there is no need. Do you want me to send you confidence or calm vibes? I can do that you know."

"Sorry love and thanks. You don't have to send me any calm or confidence vibes I can do this."

"Just take your time I know you need to ask me something."

He got on one knee and then held up a jewelry box in front of me.

"Bella I know that I should have asked you to marry you before we made love the first time, but like I said before I do not regret anything that I did with you not even for a second. I also want to clarify that I am not asking this because you are pregnant with my children, I would have asked you eventually. What I am trying to say is Bella will you make me the happiest, man, vampire in the world by becoming my wife for eternity?"

Oh God I hope she says yes. I know that both her dad and her mom are not huge fans of marriage in general. ~Edward

I guess I should take him out of his misery and say yes already.

"Edward funny you should think that my parents are not huge fans on marriage. Granted my mom would freak, but she isn't going to find out until much later. I have my reasons. Anyway as for my dad I told him about my pregnancy this weekend and he asked me what my plans are and if you had plans on asking me to marry you. I told him I believe so. That is why I knew you were going to ask me. As for my answer to your proposal—Yes I will marry you."

Just then he ran vampire speed and scooped me up in the air and proceeded to spin me around in circles. From his emotions I could tell he was full of happiness and love.

"Hey, Edward can you put me down before I throw up my breakfast. I am no longer feeling morning sickness but I don't want to risk it."

"Sorry Love, I am just so happy. Oh wait I forgot something."

He reached for my hand and placed my engagement ring on my ring finger. It was beautiful and looks to be extremely expensive.

"Edward the ring is beautiful, but you didn't have to spend so much on it."

"I didn't. It was my mother's and I kept it all this time until I found the one I wanted to give it to. And you are the one I want to spend the rest of eternity with."

"Thank you Edward, I love you so, so much."

"You are welcomed. So how did your conversation go with your father?"

"It went surprisingly well. Jacob and Billy know that I am pregnant, but before you freak out that a war will be starting or that we are in danger. Well the funny thing is that I know that Jacob and Seth will imprint on two of our children. I have seen it. I didn't understand it that much until Jacob explained to me what an imprint was and what it means to imprint on a child rather than a legal adult. I was upset at first when he explained to me that it won't be romantic I began to relax slightly. They are essentially whatever the child needs, which is typically a friend, big brother or protector. As a result of this pending imprint, he is no longer in love with me. Instead he told me that he has this pull or intense need to protect me and my unborn child. Not too happy that I will have to endure his stench more often now. "

"Are you serious about those mutts imprinting on our children. I don't like this. I too can barely stand their smell. Now come to hear that they will be practically living with us. Not going to happen if I have anything to say about it."

"Edward, listen to me. How would you feel if you were told that I couldn't be with you and you were forced to stay away from me and never be in contact with me ever again? I know for me it would be extremely painful not to mention devastating. Just like you and I are soul mates, Jacob is going to be the soul mate of one of our children, and Seth is going to be one as well. Our children could die if we keep them apart I am not willing to risk that and I don't think you are either. You know I too am not happy with this whole situation but what choice do we have."

"Fine, I will accept this situation as it is but I don't have to like it."

"I know, I don't like it either but like I said we don't have a choice. Anyway now back to my night with my dad. When I told him he initially got really angry but then he quickly decided to accept things. We talked about that since your house can accommodate me and our children more comfortably than dad's house can he agreed that I move out whenever I am ready too. There was no rush in his eyes. I did however have to agree to the following conditions; I have to have dinner with him twice a week, wait to get married until after graduation but being engaged is ok, that he has to walk me down the aisle, that if we move he has to be able to keep in touch with me at all times, and I have to tell my mother about all this."

"That's good. At least he didn't kick you out. He loves you, but I am sure that deep down he wishes that you waited until you graduated and or gone to college."

"Yeah his thoughts were along the lines that he wanted to yell at you and I for being so irresponsible, but after awhile he decided what is done is done. He mentioned to me that he and my mother made a similar mistake and he wishes that I don't follow in my mother's footsteps and leave and that you are there for me like he would have been for my mother."

"Well I know for a fact you are nothing like your mother because you are more like your father. I see it in his thoughts. Plus I will always be there for you; otherwise I wouldn't have asked you to marry you if I wasn't planning on being with you for eternity. What else happened that night? Alice couldn't see anything, and now I know it was because of Jacob."

"I told my dad that I plan on moving in with you next month sometime. He is going to talk to Esme and Carlisle sometime this week regarding the living arrangements. I convinced him that it wasn't a good idea for me to contact my mother and tell her about the pregnancy and moving in with you. She would have tried and force me to move back home with her. I told him that two nights per week he would come to our house for dinner and then one night per week I would go to his house. I also told him that I would make meals for him so he doesn't have to go to the dinner or order out and drop them off at his house or at the station if he was working late. I also agreed to postpone the wedding until I am done with high school, but that I will wear the engagement ring that you would give me proudly on my hand for others to see."

"I think those conditions are reasonable. I can understand why you don't want to tell your mother. I couldn't stand being force to be apart from you if she tried to take me away from you. But if she tried I would have asked you to run away with me, but I am glad things didn't go that way. I will let Carlisle and Esme know to expect a call from Charlie sometime regarding the living arrangements. Ok we have an hour and half left before we are needed at the school what do you want to do in the mean time. I can think of many things I want to do."

With that we slowly and gently made love, in order to prevent any damage to our unborn children for the remainder of our time in the meadow before we drove towards the School to begin our day. Let the rumors begin. I am sure as soon as people see my engagement ring people will start speculating that I am pregnant. Although I look at least 4 months pregnant, I covered myself pretty well not that I really care what others think I just didn't want to deal with the questions until now.
