Paul POV :

"I'm pregnant." She said before launching herself out of my lap and towards the door where people had started arriving. My eyes widened and my muscles locked in place. Pregnant? When did she find out? Was she keeping this from me? It would explain why she wasn't so freaked about just randomly being sick. She had to have known it's the only thing that makes sense . . . . . . . Right? I couldn't believe it she wouldn't hide something this big from me . . . . . Would she? No she wouldn't, she couldn't.

I felt a hand lay on my shoulder and looked up and saw Jarrod looking down at me with a little worry in his eyes. And suddenly I remembered our conversation from a few weeks back. Jarrod had asked a simple question, 'So when will you two be starting a family? I know that Emily is eager to start and Sam is trying to placate her until the vamps are dealt with.' I couldn't help but think about being a dad. I want to be a dad so bad but was I really ready now?

"Is he okay?" I blinked and saw Jarrod looking at Bella.

I looked over at Bella would made brief eye contact before she looked away with hurt and anger in her eyes. Isn't she happy? We're gonna have a baby; she's going to be a mom? Then a thought struck me; maybe she didn't want the baby. Just that simple thought made my voice hard when I answered for Bella. "I'm fine." I saw Bella flinch at the tone in my voice and I felt guilty but before I could Rose, Esme and Alice wrapped her in a hug and took her upstairs. Everybody looked after her apart from Jasper, Emmett and Carlisle. Jasper and Emmett were glaring at me and hissing lowly. Carlisle was looking at me disappointed.

I glared at them, they knew! Bella told them before me- the own father of the baby? "What's wrong with Bella?" Kim asked.

I put my head in my hands shaking my head wondering if she wanted them to know. "She's just a little sick she hasn't been feeling well all morning." I said and before I could say anything Renee ran forward and hugged me.

"Oh honey she'll be fine. When she was little and was sick she was grumpy you get used to it." She smiled and even though I didn't want to I chuckled and hugged her back. I heard the others laugh also. Charlie walked over and shook my hand.

"I know I guess I was just a little shocked more than anything." I said mainly hoping Rose, Esme or Alice would have heard and told Bella.

Minutes later Bella, Rose, Alice and Esme came back down. Bella looked upset and her eyes were red and puffy. I started walking over to her to comfort her but Jasper grabbed my arm and pulled me outside to 'talk'. As soon as we got outside he punched me in the face. I snarled at him but didn't phase too worried about Bella to get really angry. "What is wrong with you?" Jasper growled out at me.

"What are you talking about." I glared at him.

"Bella tells you she is having your baby and you get angry? You're gonna have a baby and you can't see how that is a good thing?" He whisper yelled not wanting to get the other's attention.

"What? Is that what you think? That I'm angry that Bella's pregnant?" Jasper nodded while glaring at me. I scoffed. "You have got to be kidding me, I couldn't be happier!" I snarled at him.

His eyes widened and before he could say anything Renee called us in for dinner. I walked past Jasper hitting him with my shoulder on the way. I sat down at the head of the table like I normally do and Bella sat to my right. Renee sat to my left and was giving side glances at the amount of food Jarrod had already piled onto his plate. I chuckled and Bella looked at me with hope in her eyes and I smiled at her broadly, her return smile was blinding. Everyone else got themselves seated and grabbed what they wanted. The Cullen's grabbed what they thought looked like enough before passing everything on to the person next to them.

Charlie looked at Bella and then me before shrugging. "You should eat some of this Bella. Paul told us you weren't feeling too well this morning." Renee asked concerned while looking at the two pieces of bread on Bella's plate.

Bella looked at her plate before looking at her mother with raised eyebrows. "I think I'll be okay mom." She said slightly sarcastic. I chuckled and put my hand on Bella's knee.

"Let's eat!" Jarrod boomed before Kim smacked across the back of the head.

"Ow, what was that for?" He demanded.

Emmett laughed. "Happens to me all the time man." Rose smacked him on the head and he huffed before saying, "See?"

We all laughed and started eat. Around nine thirty we had all made it on to the porch to watch the fireworks Jarrod, Sam, Jacob and Embry had set up. I walked over to Bella wrapping my arm around her waist and putting my hand on her still flat belly. I put my head on her shoulder and kissed her neck. "So you thought I was upset when you told me we were gonna have a baby?" I whispered in her ear.

She looked down. Before turning in my arms and wrapping her arms around my neck. "I'm sorry but when you didn't answer and then you answered Jarrod you sounded so . . . . . Mad. I just thought that maybe you didn't want to have a baby." She shrugged blushing slightly while looking down.

I growled lowly at her for being ridiculous. "Bella I have always wanted to be a dad and having a baby with you just makes it the more special." I said kissing her.

She grabbed my arm and brought me over to the patio chair and sat me down before sitting on my lap. She grabbed my face in both hers hands and forced me to look her in the eye not that I wouldn't have anyway. "So you're not upset about having a baby now?" She asked biting her bottom lip.

"Sure it would been better if it happened a few years from now but that doesn't mean I won't love him or her any less. They will be half you Bella and half me a perfect combination. I'll love them no matter what so no I'm not upset in the least." I said confidently.

Without even stopping she grabbed my lips in a kiss and I wrapped my arms around her waist pulling her closer to me. Her fingers threaded through my hair and started tugging on the roots gently. I moaned into her mouth and she smiled against my lips. I pulled back and she leaned her head down on my shoulder. She kissed my collarbone before she started watching the fireworks.

I started rubbing her back soothingly and my hand unconsciously went to her belly and I held it there. I looked down at Bella and kissed her forehead before I decided now would be a good time to ask my question. "When do want to tell them?" I looked over at our family watching the fireworks with love and happiness in their eyes.
