Stephanie Meyer owns all character names.

I've disregarded this story but now it's time I got back to it. A few things I have updated as my grammar got better, or at least I hope so.. It has the same story line that I didnt change.

Happy reading :)

My name is Isabella McCarty-Swan. I am happily married to Emmett McCarty, we've been together for eight years but we've only been married for two years. Emmett has been an Army Soldier since he was 18. As you can see, I am an army wife and it is very difficult. Every time he leaves it kills me more than the last. He tells me he will always come back to me, but I can't help and worry. When I see him at the airport, waiting for me to pick him up, I always let out a breath I'm always holding. I always feel lonely when he leaves, yes we have a dog but it's just not the same, well until now. I found out today that I will have something of him whenever he leaves. All I have to do is tell him before he leaves in a week.

Monday:

"Baby do you know where I left my shirt?" Emmett yelled from the bedroom. I was into my thoughts that I didn't pay attention to him, all I could think about was that we were going to be parents. We have been married for two years but we haven't really talked about having a baby but I'm actually glad we are. All I'm worrying about is how was I going to tell him and more important how was he going to react?

"Baby are you okay?" He asked, sounding worried.

"Uh yea I'm fine." I answered, coming out of my thoughts.

"Baby if this is about me leaving in a week, don't worry about it like I always say, I'll be back. I will always come back to you." He said kissing me.

"Yeah I know sweetheart."I said. "It just sucks."

"You know we still have days left, how about you and me take it over there? Make it worthwhile." He pointed towards the bedroom.

"Tempting but no I cannot, I have to go do some errands." I said.

"What? What in the world could be more important than sleeping with your husband?!" he said. Our baby I thought but I just laughed at his face, it was priceless.

"Oh what we do is far from sleeping but I want to spend time with you out of the bedroom."

"Well in the bedroom you can spend time with me as well." He said, wiggling his eyebrows. I sighed starting to get serious.

"You know what I mean Emmett."

He sighed too.

"Yeah I know and I get it, I want to spend time with you too, man I'm gone for too long, but we'll do what you want to do, I want to make the best of these few days left."

"Thanks baby." I said, giving him a kiss.

"But we are gonna have sex this week right?" He said worried.

"Of course, after all I still want to sleep with my husband." I said quoting his words and laughing.

"Mmmmm you better cause a man being away from his women really gets him sexually frustrated."

"Yeah I think I know." I said remembering past experiences and the last time which was two months ago when he came back.

"Thinking about it aren't you?" he said laughing.

"No!" I lied. "Well I got to go, I'll see you in a bit."

"Wait! Where are you going?" He asked.

"I'm sorry I can't tell you."

"You're cheating on me aren't you? I knew me being away would come to this." He said and he actually sounded serious.

"WHAT? NO! Of course not...I love you baby from the day I met you; you have completely ruined all men for me. I couldn't even think of cheating, I'm not like that." I explained.

He sighed. "I know baby. It's just that I'm paranoid I guess I mean I am away for long periods of time, I would understand if you did cheat." He said sadly.

"Emmett, look at me, I accepted you knowing you were in the army, I married you knowing you would be leaving every so often, I accepted you for what you are, yes I get lonely but it's okay cause I know you will come back." I said with tears filling my eyes.

"And I'm very grateful for that." He said.

"How about we talk about this later, I have to go, and I'll be back in about an hour, okay?"

"Okay I love you." He said.

"I love you too, Bye" I said, giving him a kiss and was out the door before he said anything else.

I hate keeping secrets from him but this is one I can't tell him but show him instead. That's why I'm on my way to the mall to go buy baby clothes and a shirt for him. It'll be his going away present before he leaves.

Maybe I'll tell him tomorrow.

When I got to the mall, I went to find the baby store. The worker asked if I needed help and I said no that I was just looking around. After what felt like minutes of looking, I found a cute baby onesie that read "my daddy is my hero", so adorable I thought. Emmett is basically a hero, not many would do what he does. I paid for the shirt and was on my way to find another store for Emmett's shirt. It took me a while to find the store since I was window shopping basically everywhere but when I found the store I went straight to their t-shirts. It didn't take me long to find the shirt I wanted. It said "promoted to daddy" and luckily found one for me that said "promoted to mommy", I was so excited to tell him now.

I paid for both and I was on my way home but decided to do a quick stop to buy a new pregnancy test as well as a gift bag. Now as I was going home I just hoped he wasn't there and as I was pulling up, a couple minutes later, he actually wasn't. As I entered our home, I saw that he had left a note on the table saying he went to visit Edward. Good I thought, that left me with enough time to wrap the clothing that I bought and take my test. After wrapping them and finding a good hiding place for it, I went to the living room. I decided to sit and watch some TV. I couldn't find anything interesting so I settled on a reality show.

While watching this show I couldn't help but put my hand on my stomach lovingly. I wondered how far along I was. Emmett's been home for a month and a half, no wait he's been home for two months. Then I'm guessing I got pregnant when he got here, meaning I'm about a month pregnant. I think I should make an appointment. I should call before he gets here. I went to the bedroom and got my gynecologist's card and dialed her number.

"Hello Dr. Mason speaking how can I help you?"

"Hi, it's Bella I would like to schedule an appointment with you."

"Oh hi Bella how are you? let me see, when would you like the appointment?"

"I'm great, I was wondering when you had available?"

"I have available this coming Thursday at 2pm if that works for you?"

"Yes that works I just found out I'm pregnant and I wanted to confirm how far along I am."

"Oh that's such great news Bella, well I'll see you Thursday then at 2pm alright?"

"Yes thank you, see you soon, bye." I said and hung up.

Well this means I will tell Emmett tomorrow.

"Bella are you home?" I heard Emmett yell.

"Yes I'm up in the bedroom" I responded. I heard the door close and Emmett coming upstairs.

"Have you been home long?" Emmett asked as he entered the room.

"Not long, twenty minutes I think." I said standing up from where I was sitting and went to him. He came to me and hugged me.

"Why didn't you call me? You know I want to be with you for as long as I have left."

"I wanted you to spend time with Edward before you leave for like five months."

"6 but you're my wife and I want to spend more time with you instead." He said.

"But Emmett you never know if you'll come back, you need family time." I said.

"Bella please don't start, I know I'm not going to die, I know I can survive this, I've been doing it since I was eighteen, I'm 26 now I've been in the army for 8 years, I have only gotten hurt twice, but they were minor injuries…." I interrupted him and pulled away.

"Yeah minor injuries Emmett, they could have been worse."

"I was only 19 when my first injury happened and then at 20 I had my other one. I was young and new and didn't know crap." He argued. "I'm not going to die, I'm not...I know how to protect myself."

I didn't even know what to say, I just imagined him not coming back and so I started crying and fell to my knees. Damn hormones I'm not even that far along into my pregnancy and I already have them bad.

"Baby, please don't cry." He said falling to his knees in front of me.

"I can't help it, I hate that you leave and that you're gone for months, I'm always worried something might have happened to you. I get letters from you every so often but it's not the same as having you here with me." I sobbed.

"Baby,hey look at me." He said, pulling my head up. "I know how hurtful this is, it kills me too. I never stop thinking of you, you're always on my mind. I'm always thinking about what you're doing, how you feel and I wish I was right there with you." He said. "I'm going to talk to my recruiter."(A.n I don't know anything about the army so idk if this is what they are called)

"About what?" I said hoping he was going to say what I was thinking.

"About leaving the army, I've served enough."

"Emmett you can't just get out. There's a process."

"Yes I know but I've been thinking about it for a while. I know it's time, Bella we've been married for 2 years and I was only here to celebrate the second anniversary. I missed our first, the most important and all because of the army. I've been thinking about wanting a family now. I've wanted one since we got married but I kept my mouth shut since I knew it was too early but now I want a family with kids, our own babies. I know you're my family now but I want a baby involved." He explained.

Oh Emmett if only you knew that was already coming true. I have made my decision; Emmett will know tomorrow he's going to become a daddy.

The rest of the day we spent just talking about our future and all our plans for now that he's getting out.
