Several seconds went by and all we did was look at each other. I couldn't for the life of me figure out what he was trying to see in my face. I started out ecstatic to see him but soon it drifted towards trepidation. I would never fear Edward but I was a little (well more than a little) curious as to what he was thinking. I was the one to finally break the eye contact and start walking forwards. I counted every step I took as I went through the front door and up the stairs. Edward was waiting for me at my bedroom door.

"Hey." To my relief his voice was cheerful and I smiled once again and took his offered hand.

"I'm sorry I didn't call." Now that I was sure he wasn't angry with me I wasn't nervous to bring up the subject. Although I still hadn't made up my mind about whether or not I should ask him about the baby thing. Better to be on more solid footing with him.

"What did you do all day?" He asked it casually but I could tell he was anxious for my answer. I took an extra second to think. He raised an eyebrow at me.

"I was just talking with Alice." I looked away knowing I was going to have to lie if he pressed for details.

"Hmm." I continued to look around waiting for him to say more but when he didn't I leaned back and looked into his eyes.

"How was school?"

"Fine I only missed my last two classes but I can catch up." This I did not doubt. More awkward silence followed and I realized this was the second time that happened with Edward. Although in fairness last night wasn't really his fault.

"You didn't have to leave school." It was a stupid thing to say and I knew it. This would only lead back to me and what I was talking to Alice about.

"I was worried about you. You didn't call or text or let me know you weren't coming the whole morning." I shut my eyes tightly hoping to fight off the guilt. "What were you talking to Alice about that was so important you couldn't let me know you were ok?" This was worse than the guilt. I couldn't take time to think about my words because then he would know I was lying but I was really terrible at thinking on my feet.

"Just the situation and what a mess I made."

"And?" Damn he was too smart for his own good.

"That's all I just needed someone to talk to. Someone not directly involved." There that wasn't a complete lie and I made sure he didn't think I didn't want to talk to him.

"I don't know what you could possibly have to think through when the solution is obvious." Yeah, I knew he meant tell the truth. I really should have just listened but for some reason the idea of actually getting pregnant was almost as appealing. Our families already accepted it and telling the truth would only cause fighting again. With all these thought I didn't notice Edward hadn't looked away and was staring at me intently. It felt like everything I was thinking was being blasted on a loud speaker into my room for him to hear.

"I know but until then I just wanted…to talk." For the moment at least he seemed satisfied. We went and had a lunch out back on the picnic table since I hadn't eaten anything and was starving and I figured Edward hadn't eaten either. After we finished I cleaned everything up and went back up to my room. Lunch had been nice but I wasn't sure if this was a good time to bring up having a baby. I mentally cringed when I actually thought the words.

"Edward—"

"Are you still going shopping with my mom today?" I'd almost forgotten. Well one problem at a time.

"Yeah, I guess." If I at least had it in my head that I might be pregnant in the near future I wouldn't feel so guilty about baby shopping with Edward's mom. At least I hoped not.

"She's really excited about going." This fact didn't seem to make him happy. I desperately wanted to say something to make him not feel so bad about all of this but I couldn't even think of anything to say to myself. I started to panic which was not a good thing. I didn't think clearly when I was panicking and usually said things I would later regret as I just recently demonstrated.

"It will be ok," I mimicked his words from last night. I'm sure I didn't sound as convincing as he did though. His mood suddenly switched and he smiled at me lifting the cloud that was starting to form over my thoughts.

"I know I just know she's really exciting about having a grandchild and I don't want to disappoint her." I took his hand and kissed it then pressed it against my cheek.

"She won't be." Thankfully he didn't seem to grasp my double meaning and just pulled me against him. He left shortly after that so my parents wouldn't know he was there. When he was gone I realized I had to take a different approach. If I was really going to do this I couldn't just ask Edward. I was going to have to just seduce him. The thought made me blush. It was definitely easier said than done. Sure you'd think seducing Edward Cullen would be the simplest thing but I had to be subtle. I decided to just think about it later.

A bout an hour later my mom got home and I greeted her warmly. We didn't talk a lot recently which I was actually happy about. At least today I had the excuse that I was going shopping with Esme so I had to go upstairs and get ready. As I was changing and brushing my hair my mind was all over the place. One of my worst habits and probably was my least favorite. Whenever I had free time I tended to over think everything. Like how was I going to trick Edward into getting me pregnant? Or if I decided I just needed to tell everyone the truth when I was going to do this? Fortunately I was out of time so I had to pause my busy brain.

"Edward's here," my mother called from downstairs. I took one more quick look in the mirror before leaving my room. I gave my mom a hug and told her I'd be back later tonight then followed Edward out to his car. It was several minutes before I even realized we weren't heading in the direction of his house. I peered around confused for a second trying to see if I could figure out where he was taking us by what was around. When I was thoroughly stumped I turned a confused look on Edward.

"Where are we going? I thought I was going shopping with your mom" He didn't even take his eyes off the road.

"Change of plans." Huh? I didn't change anything, did Edward?

"Oh…" I let the word hang there hoping he would fill in all the missing blanks. When he didn't I pressed. "So what's going on?" Before he answered I looked out the windshield and saw we were at the same park me and Alice went to this morning. Finally Edward turned to me.

"So… you want to get pregnant for real now?"
