"Dad?" Charlie was mumbling to himself and listing things off on his fingers.
"...Renee'...here or there?..." it went on and on, but that was all I could understand. I looked at Edward again and he rubbed my arm. Is he okay? I barely whispered, I knew he heard me though. Edward nodded his head.
"Charlie, just calm down." Edward said to my dad in a calm resonable voice. "Bella and I are going to get married, have the baby, go to college and do all the things Bella was going to do with her life. I'm sure my family will be more than willing to help take care of the baby, if we ever need it. This will all work out fine."
My dad had stopped mumbling when Edward started talking, and now was looking at me. "Marriages cost money. College costs money," he turned to Edward, "Babies cost money. Other things cost money. How are you two going to support a family?" His voice got louder as he went on. He was getting worked up about something Edward and I would never have to worry about. Money. Edward's family had an unlimited amount of money and 1/7 of that was Edward's and he said that was for us.
"Dad, Edward and I already have. . . ." I looked up at Edward, "a financial plan. Plus we both probably will work for a living. And both of us have money saved away for college and such. We have this planned out." I tried to sound reassuring, but not too reassuring. I couldn't tell my dad that the Cullens were unworldly rich, he'd wonder where the money came from. Then he'd probably come to his own conclusion that the Cullens were all scam artists, and then we'd have to tell him the truth, which could never happen.
Charlie was quiet for awhile then he looked me in the eye, " Okay, I'll let you two play house for awhile, but the first trouble with that baby and I'm stepping in. Got it?"
Oh my God. He was going to let us, not that we wouldn't have anyway, but still it felt better with his permission.
"Thank you dad!" I leaned in and hugged him again. I was so happy right now, Edward and I could have a family.
