Carlisle's Point Of View

Edward walked into my office, dragging along an extremely red Bella in his wake. She probably realized that the whole house had been listening to her moans of pleasure for the last two hours. I smiled kindly at her, only making her blush harder.

"What can I do for you two?" I asked, curiously judging the expression on Edwards face. It was a mix of incredulity and hopefulness, all shown in his smile. Edward looked down at Bella. She hadn't moved her eyes from the floor since they walked in, her face crimson. Edward smiled, and then turned to face me.

"You know how you always said that it was impossible for vampires to have children because the sperm and eggs die when where changed?" I nodded, my curiosity aroused.

"We'll, when Bella and I just…"his voice trailed off. I nodded again, understanding. Bella turned a disturbing shade of burgundy.

"Bella, are you alright?" I asked, worried. She mumbled yes, her color reducing a few hues. I could see the excitement in Edward's eyes.

"I came, Carlisle!" he sang, forgetting about his awkwardness. Bella regained her burgundy tone. I took what Edward said in.

"Are you sure?" I asked, just wanting to certify.

"We'll, Bella felt it as well. She told me!" I could see Bella's discomfort. It was written in red all over her face.

"Bella, do you want to go wait outside?" I asked. She nodded, stumbling out of the room. Edward's eyes turned to watch her go then slowly circled back to mine, his face filled with fear.

"I don't think she's upset by the possible situation." I assured him, then chuckled. "She just kept getting redder every time you partially insinuated sex." Edward smiled sheepishly and I grinned.

"So anyway, getting down to business…" I stated, getting serious. "You said you came…" I thought for a moment, "Well, I've nev…" my voice trailed off. What if… "Well, there is one possibility…" I murmured. Edward leaned in eagerly. "We'll its possible that sperm dies slower than eggs…" I started leisurely, giving me time to formulate. "Or possibly doesn't die at all… maybe… well its possible that being with Bella, and no relationship like yours has ever been recorded in history, activated the human sperm ejection and well, etcetera." I clasped a hand under my chin. "Edward, can you go ask Bella to come back in, I have some questions to ask."

I stumbled out of the room, beet red. I couldn't even pay attention to the conversation. I could tell, when we first walked into the room, that Carlisle had heard Edward and I … making love. Then Edward had to mention it shamelessly at least twice, before Carlisle noticed my mortification and let me go stand outside his office. Edward came out all of the sudden, his eyes alight. He beckoned me towards him, and I walked into the room. Both Edward and Carlisle smiled at me.

"Bella… Edward said you felt him come?" I nodded, confused.

"Hmmm… well I've never heard of anything like this before. I guess Edward can tell you my theory." Carlisle muttered, distracted.

I looked at Edward, expectant, but Edward was watching Carlisle.

"Carlisle?" Edward asked, forming his words slowly. Carlisle nodded absently. "Is it possible that Bella could be…Pregnant?" I turned to look at Edward, trying to understand what was going on, but he was just smiling wistfully at me.

"Well…" Carlisle began. I tuned him out. Pregnant. I had always wanted a child of my own, but after falling in love with Edward I had to succumb to the fact that it would be impossible. But was it? I mean, Edward had come. I didn't think that was possible after what Alice told me. I could have Edward's child! The thought of a baby Edward, perfect in every way filled my blissful mind. I wonder if it will…

"Bella?' Carlisle's voice interrupted. I looked at him, muddled.

"I… sorry Carlisle, I sort of tuned you out after pregnant." I admitted shamefaced. Carlisle just smiled a sad look to his eye.

"It's fine." then he took a look at my yearning face. "Bella," he sighed. "Edward has been dead for 150 years. His sperm shouldn't be strong enough to move an inch in your body." He watched as my face fell, and then sighed. "I'm sorry." I turned to look at Edward: his face mirrored how I felt: disappointed and almost, well, cheated. Like someone stole the chance right from under our finger tips.

"I'm so sorry Bella!" Edward was disgusted: with himself.

"Edward?" I asked, scared at the look he had on his face. It was too much like the one he wore before he left me.

"Bella I am so sorry!" he repeated, pained.

"Its fine, Edward." I whispered, but tell-tale tears ran down my face, showing my lie.

"Bella, please, don't cry!" I looked up into Edward's remorseful eyes, blurred by my tears. I smiled up at his saddened face.

"Well, I guess I can't have everything. I already have you. I don't need anything else." I murmured to him. I didn't tell him how badly I wanted it: a child of my own. Oh, I wanted to have Edward's child so much. The thought of watching a little Edward run around sent a new wave of pain through me. I would never be able to watch Edward's child grown. Never.
