Wow, I really wasn't expecting such a great response! Thankyou everyone! I've just got to say I really enjoyed writing this chapter, and I hope you guys like it, I've decided to put the first part in Renee's POV, because I think it would make it a bit more fun. Her POV is a bit short, because I prefer Bella's POV.

Disclaimer: I'm clearly not Stephanie Meyer, and I clearly don't own Twilight. However Alura is mine and I made her up.

Chapter Three-A Few Answered Questions

Renee's POV

Oh. My. God.

Oh. My. God.

"What"? I asked calmly, barely restraining my anger.

"I'm having a baby", my precious daughter sobbed.

I was silent for a moment, gathering my thoughts. That vile, repulsive, Cullen's boy. He did this.

"What the hell did that stupid Cullen's child do to you"! I screeched into the receiver.

"Is everything okay"? Phil asked.

I ignored his question. Idiot, everything was clearly not okay!

"Bella, your coming home right now. And…". Oh. My. God. "CHARLIE"! I thundered. That idiot fool of a father! How irresponsible and stupid!

"Sorry", I heard my sweet baby's small voice come through the phone.

"Sweetheart, its okay you did nothing wrong. I'm coming to pick you up. And as for Charlie and that stupid…Edward. Put Edward on", I frowned. What had possessed my little girl to be so silly! She was getting mixed in with the wrong sort of people in that dreadful little hellhole of a town.

"Hello"? Came a dazzling voice. "What have you DONE to my poor little Isabella"!

"Please, Renee…"

"DON'T YOU DARE 'PLEASE RENEE' ME BOY"! That pathetic snivelling little rat.

I heard my baby's voice in the background, "Mum, don't be mad at Edward, he didn't do anything"! The poor thing! "I'm not mad at Edward, I'm bloody FURIOUS"! I roared at him. This was the last straw.

Bella's POV

"What"? I heard my mother ask. "Remember to breathe Bella", Edward whispered in my ear. All I could do was nod.

"I'm having a baby", I said softly, tear streaming down my face. I realised this had been a stupid, stupid idea. Mum would chuck a spaz, and I could hardly say, "Hey mum, no worries, I'm having a baby, which is totally impossible because my boyfriend is a vampire, so he can't have kids, and second of all he has an obsession for my blood, and if he loses control around me, he'll suck me dry so we can't get that close with each other anyway".

Yeah, I'm sure that would go down well. I could hear mum screaming at me over the phone, but I was breaking down in tears and not hearing her. I looked up at Edward, unable to mask my fear and pain.

He gave me an encouraging smile, and wiped away a tear. I couldn't hear a word my mum was saying, not over my sobs. "Sorry", I cried. I dropped the phone and buried my face in my hands. Edward quickly caught it, and with one arm around me and the other hand holding the phone to his ear, he began to talk to my mum.

Well, from what I could see, it was more mum yelling, than the two of them talking. "Please, Renee…" Edward pleaded. I winced. I hoped mum was having a gullible day. "Mum, don't be mad at Edward, he didn't do anything"! I cried in pure desperation.

Even I heard what she screamed next. "I'm not mad at Edward, I'm bloody FURIOUS"! Poor Edward. Maybe he really had met his match.

"Bella", Edward held the phone to me. He looked hurt. "Sorry", I whispered to him. I would be sure to make it up to him later. "Bella, I'm coming down to see you as soon as I can. I'm going to leave right now. Sweetheart, I love you. Everything is going to be okay. Goodbye", my mum said. "No, mum"! But she was already gone.

I lost it then. I cried onto Edwards chest for how knows how long. Edward scooped me into his arms. "We need to see Carlisle", he said firmly. Yeah right, as if Carlisle will know what I should say to my over protective mother, I thought, instantly regretting.

They had been so kind to me. I was just glad Edward couldn't read my thoughts. He would have never forgiven me for that.

So we drove to their house, and waited by the piano for Carlisle. "Edward, why are we here"? I asked. Edward began to play my lullaby. "I know it has nothing to do with your mother, but hopefully Carlisle has some answers on how this happened", he smiled at me.

Suddenly he did something so unexpected and moving I almost cried again. He pulled me closer and pressed his ear to my round stomach. A small smile spread across his face and I knew that if he could cry, he would have. He was listening for the baby's heartbeat.

"Well"? I whispered softly. Edward's smile was as wide and happy as I had ever seen. He nodded, and pressed his ear back. "Ouch"! He scowled, pulling his head back. "What"? I demanded. "The, the baby kicked me"! He said in disbelief.

I stared at Edward for a moment, and then burst out laughing. As if that could hurt Edward. But then I had a thought. "Hmm, I wonder…" I grabbed Edward's hand and put it in the same spot.

"Ah"! He cried, pulling back his hand.

"Ouch, jeez, that hurts"! I cried with a small frown.

Edward frowned too, and put his hand back warily.

"Oh bugger"! Edward was staring at his hand. I clutched my stomach. "Man, it's a strong little thing"! I said.

Edward's eyes lit up. "I'm betting it's a boy", he said. "You're on"! I laughed. I had completely forgotten about the phone call to Renee by now. At that exact moment Alice walked through smirking and strode upstairs.

I gaped. "Please"! I begged. She ignored me. Edward was smirking too, I noticed. Had I missed something? "What"? I demanded. He chuckled evilly. "You forget I can read minds", he said. "Aw, man", I slapped my forehead. "A boy"? I asked. "Yep", Edward held out his palm.

"Uh, uh, I don't think so. We never placed the actually bets", I pointed out stubbornly. A minute later Carlisle and Esme came gliding in. Esme could barely contain her joy, and Carlisle was much the same only more controlled.

"So how is the mother-to-be"? They asked. Edward cleared his throat expectantly. Carlisle shot him a look. "Edward, I know you have a cough, but you'll have to wait your turn to see the doctor", I mocked. His eyes widened in surprise.

Esme and Carlisle turned their heads, trying to hide their laughter. Edward looked embarrassed. "Anyway", Esme said, elbowing Carlisle like a teenager would. "Anyway. We think we might know what has happened here", Carlisle explained. I waited patiently.

He continued. "There has been a new bunch of vampires passing through. Like us, they do not feed on humans, but animals. One of these vampires is very…gifted", he paused to let this sink in. "And…"? Edward pressed.

"And, well, this particular vampire was unable to have children when she was a human. She loved children very much, and as far as we know, she had many brothers and sisters, and she was the oldest. Their parents died, and they all grew up in an orphanage. Slowly her brothers and sisters were adopted, but no one ever came for her.

"Eventually, when she turned eighteen, she got married, but her husband left her because they discovered she could not have children. She worked in the orphanage, and remarried one of the other workers there, who happened to be a vampire. He changed her, and this particular woman has a very special gift…we talked to her, and yes, she did do…something, however I'm not sure what, that made Bella pregnant", Carlisle spoke slowly and carefully.

I felt Edward's hand reach for mine. "What is this vampire's name"? He asked. "Alura", Esme spoke up. "They are planning on staying here for a few months".

I was completely lost in my own thoughts. I couldn't work out if this was a good thing or a bad thing, but Edward's opinion helped my decision. "We need to thank her", he murmured. I nodded weakly. "So, is this baby going to be more vampire or human"? I asked half heartedly. I felt suddenly tired, and at that time it didn't really bother me.

"Both, I suppose. This has never happened before, so I don't know", Carlisle admitted. "Now, did you need to see me about your cough, Edward"? He asked, lightening the mood. Edward glared, and we all laughed. Except Edward.

Carlisle and Esme slipped out, leaving us in peace for a moment. "So", I said. "So", Edward answered. He turned and smiled at me. "I wish I could read your thoughts right now", he wrinkled his nose. I laughed softly. "I feel exactly the same", I added.

"Are you glad"? I blurted suddenly. Edward turned the full force of his eyes on me. "Of course", he said. "Aren't you"? He looked suddenly worried. I nodded eagerly, and I could practically feel the relief wash through him. He leaned down and gave me the greatest kiss of my life.

I felt his warm breath and inhaled the sweet sent. I just barely stopped myself from fainting. Then Edward's hand went to my belly again. "I felt him kick again", he breathed. "Me too", I whispered back.

"Ugh, get a room", came Rosalie's disgusted voice. "Already got one", Edward retorted. For some reason Rosalie had started hating me even more since 'the news'. "Well do the other members of this household a favour and take it up there, will you"? She snapped. I actually heard her footsteps this time, as she stormed off.

I pulled back from Edward. "Is it just me or is she hating me even more now"? I asked. "Yes, she is", Edward admitted sheepishly. I gaped. "Why"? I demanded. He looked at me with adorable puppy dog eyes. "She's jealous that, well…we're having a baby, and she and Emmett…can't", he hung his head, ashamed of his sister. "Oh". Was all I could say. It all made sense now.
