Chapter 35

EPOV

I knew it was a bad idea to get in the car with Tanya but I had to make it to the hospital. I could not have Bella thinking that I did not want to be there.

Why didn't anyone answer their damn phones?

What the fuck was the point of cell phones if they were not going to answer?

I called Bella again and it went right to voicemail. She must have had it turned off because she was in the hospital or she had no signal there. It was probably the same with Jasper's. He had mentioned that he would take her to the hospital so we could take one car home.

I left a message for both of them telling them I was having car trouble but was on my way.

Tanya glanced at me now and then. I noticed she was pulling into the parking lot of a Motel 6.

"What the hell are we doing here Tanya?" I asked her.

I needed to get to the hospital…not her fucking hotel room.

"Oh, I just need to grab something really quickly. I don't have a place to live yet so I am staying here until I get one."

"Fine but what we doing here? I asked you to take me to the hospital. I need to get to Bella."

That seemed to make her angry. "Well, she can wait. I need to stop here first."

I was shocked that Tanya was staying at a Motel 6 considering the money that her family had. I did not picture her somewhere that seemed so seedy…especially this particular one. A lot of prostitutes and men cheating on their wives frequented here.

"Tanya what the hell? I have to get going! I was supposed to be there," I looked at my watch. "Fuck! Thirty minutes ago! I will just fucking walk there…it's not that far. See ya!"

Where had the damn time gone? Bella was probably done by now!

She huffed and headed into her room I guess. I turned and started sprinting out of the parking lot. As I was heading out, I heard her scream.

Fuck.

Fuck.

Fuck.

I was torn. Did I keep heading to the hospital, or did I go see what the hell she is screaming about? I kept heading away from the motel…but at a slower pace…just in case.

I heard her scream again. Damn it. At least I knew Bella was safe with Jasper. This really was a seedy motel. My fucking chivalrous instincts told me to go see if Tanya was alright.

And that was what I did.

As I said, I was fucking stupid.

I figured that I could run back to see what was wrong with Tanya…save her ass if I had to…and then hopefully make it to the last few minutes of Bella's appointment.

I got to the room that I thought I heard her screams coming from and pushed open the door that was ajar. I heard her screech again and headed to the bathroom where it was coming from. I pushed open the bathroom door and there she stood in the corner of the room cowering.

"Oh my God! Edward thank you for coming back!"

"What is it Tanya? I thought you were being murdered or something? What is wrong with you?"

"There was a roach over there! It was gigantic! I am so glad you came back. Can you kill it for me?"

Was she fucking serious? This was what I came back for? How the hell was this idiot ever going to be a doctor?

"Tanya you are completely ridiculous! You have got to be kidding me! Kill it your damn self. I have an appointment to get to with someone who is way more important to me than your bullshit!"

I was fuming. Seriously fuming.

I started to head back out of the room when she came up behind me and grabbed my arm. She whirled me around and started trying to kiss me. What the fuck was she doing?

Now, I was raised to never hit a woman. She was seriously trying my patience though…and I fought with myself about how to get her away from me. I gently pushed her away and started leaving the room again. "Tanya, you are making a fool of yourself! There is only one woman for me and her name is Bella Swan…soon to be Bella Cullen. You need to get off me and stay away from us."

As I headed out of the door finally, the dumb winch grabbed me again and forcefully pushed me into the wall beside her doorway, outside of the motel room. Then she started kissing me again! This bitch was crazy!

She could not take NO for an answer.

Who knew she was freakishly fucking strong? I was having a hard time getting her away from me. I bit her lip just to get her to stop her frenzied, sloppy, gross kissing for a minute.

"Oooh, Eddie…I always knew you would like it rough. Do it again baby."

I pushed her off me again, not gently this time. Then I turned her and pushed her into the wall and held her there…my arm tightly against her throat.

"Tanya, I have been raised to never hit a woman but you are about to be the first. GET THE FUCK OFF ME AND STAY AWAY!!!"

I tried to put as much venom in my voice as I could muster. I could tell it worked because she looked scared of me. She started crying. I could tell I was hurting her with the pressure I was putting on her throat but I really did not care at the moment.

She was beyond pissing me off with her antics.

I released her and started walking towards the hospital. I had no idea of the shit storm that I was walking into either.

Jasper POV

When Bella gasped, I looked to where her eyes were focused and I saw them. What the fuck was he doing there with Tanya and why were her lips on his?

Bella started hyperventilating and freaking out on me. My first thoughts were to get her out of there and back to Carlisle. As we were driving away though, in the rearview mirror…I saw Edward pushing Tanya away and I could tell he was screaming at her.

That was good.

Maybe I would not have to kill him now.

However, he had better have a good fucking explanation for this shit!

I tried to talk Bella down on our way back to the hospital. Thank god, we were close by still. She would not stop.

As soon as we pulled into the parking lot, she had passed out in the passenger seat. This scared the crap out of me. I knew she would be broken completely if anything happened to this baby.

I threw my car in park in front of the emergency room and did not even turn it off or take out the keys. I ran over to Bella's side as fast as I could, scooped her up and hurried in through the sliding glass doors.

"Excuse me! Help! Please someone help! My sister is pregnant and she passed out! She was very upset. Please help her," I was screaming at them.

A nurse came out and showed me where to take her. I told them to page Carlisle and they did. Carlisle came in and asked what happened. I explained everything to him and then he kicked me out to the waiting room while they looked her over.

I had been sitting there for about five minutes when I saw the person I was dying to talk to approaching.

Edward.

EPOV

When I got to the hospital…I noticed Jasper's car was sitting out front of the emergency room…with the passenger door still open…and it was running.

Oh god.

Bella.

Our baby.

What happened?

I knew her appointment would have been over by now so I could not imagine what the hell they were still doing here and what would have prompted him to leave his car like this. I pushed my legs as fast as they would go through the ER double doors.

I got to the waiting room only to find a pissed off and worried looking Jasper sitting there. About two seconds after he saw me standing there he had punched me in the face.

"What the hell Jasper? Why are you always fucking hitting me?"

"Bella saw you, you fucking idiot!"

Hunh? What did he mean Bella saw me?

Oh shit…

Realization finally hit me…she saw the exchange at the hotel room with Tanya. Damn it!

He was about to punch me again but I stopped him. I grabbed his fist and pushed it away from me. "Didn't you see me push her away? I didn't want her to kiss me!"

"Yeah I saw you but Bella didn't! As soon as she saw you there with her, she started hyperventilating and flipping out so I high tailed it back here to get her to your dad. I didn't know what was happening to her. As we were driving away, I saw you push Tanya off and yell at her…but it was too late. Bella had already seen you at the worst moment."

I sunk into one of the waiting room chairs, defeated. I did not know what to do. Bella was fragile when it came to stuff like this. Was she going to believe me when I told her the truth? Or was she going to kick me to the curb and never let me see my baby?

I pinched the bridge of my nose as I felt a hand on my shoulder. "Look man, I'm sorry I hit you, but Bella is my sister. If she hurts, I hurt and I cannot stand to see her hurting. She's very delicate right now with the baby.

"I know you pushed her off…but Bella doesn't. Do you care to explain to me exactly why you were in that fucking position in the first place? And what the hell Tanya is doing around here?"

I took a deep breath and began. I told him everything…leading up to right now. He looked pissed.

"What is it Jasper?"

"Has anything been wrong with the Volvo lately?"

"No, it's been fine. That's what was so fucking frustrating. You know how I am with my damn car!"

"Yeah I do."

He was deep in thought. He stood up and started pacing. "What are you thinking Jazz?"

He was making me crazy with his pacing. What was going on inside that tactical mind of his?

"This morning, after you left…James was making a big show of waiting on Bella…getting her tea…wanting to get her breakfast. Well, I put a stop to it and then he said he had to go anyway because Laurent was picking him to take him job hunting."

The way he emphasized the words job hunting, made me feel as if he did not really believe that was what James was doing today.

The way he said job hunting led me to believe he did not believe that was what he was really doing.

"You don't think he went job hunting do you?"

"No…I don't. I think he has put Tanya back into your life and I think that he sabotaged your car and was planning on setting you up with Tanya."

"But he couldn't have known that you and Bella would be driving by at that exact moment. He's not a freaking psychic!"

"No, but he could have taken pictures…video…anything like that!"

"Fuck you're right. Damn him! What the hell do I tell Bella? I need to tell her everything that is going on. I'm going to come clean with her…tell her about our suspicions…about what we have found out so far."

It was then that I heard my father's voice behind me, "No Edward. You shouldn't be telling her anything stressful right now. I fear that if she is under much more stress…your baby is not going to make it."

"Dad you don't even know what we've been talking about…you don't know everything that has happened in the last twenty-four hours."

"I don't need to Edward, but I do know what is going on with Bella. For whatever reason, that we are not sure of right now…her body is very fragile while she is pregnant. I thought this was the case the first time. Yes, the wreck she had with your first baby was bad but she really should not have miscarried.

"I believe that her body has trouble carrying the extra burden of another life. She is always going to have difficult pregnancies I am afraid. When Jasper brought her in, she was unconscious. I am sure she just had a panic attack…which should not have affected the baby too terribly…but…

"Bella and the baby were in severe distress. We have them stabilized now. She has to stay calm. She should not be getting upset or over excited. I don't know anything for sure, but I'm afraid if she does, she will lose this baby as well."

Fuck. I had to talk to her but I did not want her upset. I did not want to lose her or our baby. "So what do I do Dad? I've got to talk to her and explain to her what happened."

"Edward, first, please tell me that it wasn't what it looked like."

Jasper did not give me a chance to talk.

"It wasn't Carlisle, Edward was set up. I can vouch for that."

"Then I think both of you need to go in and talk to her and explain what happened but don't go into great detail and for god sake keep her calm."

We both nodded and headed to the room where my angel was. Jasper and I would have to finish our other discussion later. Right now, Bella was all that mattered to both of us.
