Chapter: 21

EPOV

I let out a sigh as my cell rings. I turn my head, seeing that it's way across my room. I let out a groan as it keeps ringing. I really just want to stay in bed—it's safer here. My luck has gone from bad to catastrophically horrible. I swear, it seems as if God is out to get me.

As my cell begins to ring again, I get up and trip, falling flat on my face. I let out a groan as I pick myself up and walk into my dresser, stubbing my toe. I pick up my cell and answer it while hopping on one foot.

"WHAT?" I bark and hear Emmett chuckling back at me. "Emmett, what do you want?" I try taking a deep breath. I know it's not Emmett's fault that I've been having a shitty time.

"Just wanted to see if you saw the news stories about yourself yet?"

I close my eyes, pinching the bridge of my nose. I open my eyes and head over to my laptop.

"NO, I haven't. Emmett, tell me the truth. Do I want to see them?"

"No, you don't—but you need to deal with it."

I growl and log on. It only takes me a few moments to see the stories Emmett's talking about.

"Why is this happening to me?" I say to no one. I look at the top story and begin reading it.

Golden Baseball Player Not So Golden!

Tanya Denali has come forward to tell us her heartbreaking story of how Edward Cullen lured her in with fake promises. The twenty-three year old told us that she met Edward Cullen five years ago after a baseball game, and they started a relationship which then ended when Tanya became pregnant.

Tanya goes on to tell that while, at first, he told her he loved her and wanted to marry her, she soon found out that he bedded women behind her back. He promised not to stray again, and they began date exclusively. When Tanya noticed that they never went out and he never told anyone about her, she got suspicious. When she found out she was pregnant, he dumped her and told her to take care of it.

She told us the hardship of how she's had to raise her son, Edward Jr., alone for four years. Edward Cullen changed his address and phone numbers, and she'd been unable to contact him. So when she saw him a few months ago, she approached him to tell him about his son and arrange their meeting. However, Edward dismissed her and handed her a pack of his own endorsement condoms telling her that's all she'd ever get from him.

Tanya broke down when telling us that she wants nothing but for her son to meet his dad. I, for one, have met the young man and he looks very much like his father.
