Chapter 9

I woke up and rolled over to cuddle with Edward, only problem was, he wasn't there. It was then that I caught a whiff of bacon and eggs. My stomach growled telling me that I needed food.

Slowly I got out of bed and made my way downstairs. I learned the hard way, jumping up too fast in the morning usually ended with me leaning over a toilet.

"Good morning beautiful" I heard Edward say as I came down the stairs into the kitchen.

"Good morning love. Did you order me breakfast?" He looked slightly offended, but I could see the smile hiding behind it.

"Just so you know, I got up and cooked this breakfast for you. I may not be a chef, but I can handle scrambled eggs." He laughed so I knew he was joking.

We sat down at the bar and ate breakfast together. I really enjoyed getting to spend this time with him. Before we know it there will be a little baby vying for our attention.

"Do you have a busy day planned?" I asked him. Looking up from his food I could see the frustration on his face. "Not too busy. I have a call with the douche from our investor in New York. I don't know what he wants but he called Angela and asked if I could set some time aside to call him."

"That sucks, I know you said he was a pain to deal with."

"It's not that big of a deal. How is your day going to be? It's next week that we go back to the Dr., right?"

"My day is pretty calm. We have our weekly marketing meeting and then I'm just working on some proposals we have coming up. Yea, the appointment is next Thursday at 10am. Is that going to work for you?" I asked hesitantly - I'm still waiting for him to say I'm not worth all of the trouble and that he's changed his mind.

"I told you Love, if I have a conflict I will move it. I'm committed to you and this baby. Nothing is going to change that."

He sure knows how to make me melt, my eyes fill with tears. These pregnancy emotions are no joke.

Once he sees the first tear roll down my cheek he walks over and pulls me into his arms. "What's the matter Love?"

"It's nothing. I just have a hard time feeling worthy of these feelings."

Grabbing my face and making me look up into his eyes, "Baby, I love you and this baby, I'm so glad that I met you that night at Twilight. My life has been empty until I had you. You're going to be a great mom and I can't wait for our baby to get here."

I knew I wouldn't win the argument I just let it go. He leaned down and gave me a sweet kiss.

…

Later that day I was in my office working on some marketing ideas when my cell phone rang. It was a number from California. I wasn't expected a call from there so I decided to let my voicemail get it so I could finish up.

The call disconnected without leaving a voicemail. Oh well, guess it was a wrong number.

I sat there working for another 2 hours until I had to get up and walk around. My eyes were getting heavy as the afternoon dragged on.

The doctor told me I could still have a small amount of caffeine I just didn't need to overdo it. But, instead, I decided a quick walk up to see Edward would do the trick.

Since it's just one floor I took the stairs. Angela was on the phone as always, but waved me in.

Walking towards his office I had an internal debate - do I knock or do I just walk in? I decided to knock. I didn't want to interrupt him if he was busy.

"Come in" I heard him call after I knocked softly.

As I stepped in I saw his smile grow, I don't know if he will ever stop amazing me. He was hanging up the phone as I shut the door. "Hey Love, come here."

He pulled me into his lap and gave me a kiss that soon turned heated. I turned and was straddling his lap. Luckily I was in a dress so it got pulled up to my waist with no problem.

Before I knew what was happening, he had his pants undone and pulled down just enough for his cock to spring free. Pulling my panties to the side he entered me fully. I was happy he didn't rip these panties. Not only were they my favorite, but I didn't want to spend the rest of the day going "commando."

We slowly rocked back and forth sitting in his office chair. There was no rush, just slow passion between the two of us.

In this position he hit me just right, it only took a few more thrusts and I was falling over the edge. I could feel him climax as I was coming down from my mind-blowing orgasm. "I don't know how it seems to get better each time." I laughed as I laid my head down on his shoulder.

"I've always wanted a little afternoon delight." He joked back.

I playfully slapped his shoulder as I stood up and made my way to his bathroom. I'm so glad he has his own, I would not want to have to walk past anybody before I could freshen up.

Coming back into his office I sat down on his sofa. The leather was so soft it just absorbed you, before I knew it I was asleep.

I wake up with a start when I hear a phone ringing. I looked over and realize Edward's not at his desk. I stand up and walk over to the bathroom. I need to go and I'm sure he's in there.

He wasn't of course but before I can wonder where he is I see a note on the corner of his desk with my name on it.

Hey Love,

You fell asleep and I didn't want to wake you. I know you and our little bean need your rest. I had my 3:00 meeting moved from here to the conference room so you could stay. You looked too peaceful to wake. I love you, just wanted to tell you incase you're gone before I get back.

-Edward

Next to the note was a tray with some fruit and a sandwich. If I didn't love Edward before, I definitely did now. My stomach growled as if on cue.

I decided to take this back to my office since he wasn't here anyways. As I sat down at my desk I saw I had missed call on my cell, it was the same number that had called earlier.

There still wasn't a voicemail, I hate calling random numbers back if I don't know who called. I decided I would answer if I saw the number call again.

…

It was finally the weekend, I was so looking forward to just relaxing at home, and by home I meant Edward's. I knew it was too early to talk about moving in, but I was always there anyways.

This week had gone by so slowly. I was so anxious for our appointment on Thursday when we would get to see our baby. From everything I've read it will be a tiny blob that looks nothing like a baby, but I can't wait regardless.

I had missed two more calls from that California number. Whoever it is seems to always call when I'm away from the phone. They have yet to leave a message and I still haven't caved and called back. I don't even know anyone who lives in California.

Tonight we were going to dinner with Emmett, Rose, Jasper, and Alice. Carlisle and Esme were watching the kids. I'm really excited about it. We've kept mostly to ourselves, but I really enjoy getting together with Edward's siblings and spouses.

We were planning on telling them tonight about the baby. Rose obviously knew but she promised to keep it a secret.

I was so nervous about telling his family, scared that they would be mad at me and think I was just a gold digger trying to get his money.

Edward had been holding off telling everyone for me. We had known for almost a week and he wanted to tell his parents. He assured me that they would be ecstatic about the news, but I was still hesitant.

We had agreed to tell this group first, then his parents at Sunday dinner. Rose agreed with Edward that everyone would be happy for us. "The family loves you Bella, nobody is going to be mad. Sure it's unconventional but I promise they'll be happy and embrace you."

That had helped my confidence a little but I was just nervous on the way to the restaurant. Rose and I had really become close. I really like Alice, but with Rose being the one to help me take the pregnancy test, that gave us a special bond.

"Baby calm down, you're shaking. I promise it's going to be ok." Edward was still trying to comfort me.

"I know, I just can't help but be nervous. You're family has been so great and really embraced me and I don't want them to hate me."

He brought my hand that he had been holding up to his lips and kissed each of my knuckles. I looked up at his eyes and instantly felt better.

"Love, I love you and our baby more than I can express. If for some crazy reason my family didn't accept this - which they will - I would choose you. I know you're not just after my money and my name."

"You are the love of my life, I'm so glad I found you Edward."

While we were having our moment the valet had come up the car and was waiting for us to finish. They opened the doors and Edward rushed over to my side to help me out.

Walking in, Edward headed straight for the back room where everyone was already waiting, with his hand on my lower back to guide me.

Looking up I could see Heidi giving me the evil eye. I just smiled sweetly back at her. He chose me and not her! I decided to not be my normal jealous self and trust in his feelings for me.

We made it back to the table and had to make our rounds. Edward giving hugs and handshakes while I gave everybody a hug. When I got to Rose she whispered in my ear, "It's going to be great, don't be nervous!"

I smiled and squeezed her a little tighter. We finally got to our seats and sat down.

Our waiter came by to take our drink orders. I noticed that Rose had wine, Alice sparkling water and the guys had a beer. When the waiter looked at me I got nervous it would give me away, "I'll just take a sweet tea please."

Nobody said anything but I could seem a certain gleam in Alice's eyes.

Edward and I hadn't discussed how we would tell everybody. I hadn't thought about it until now, sitting here trying to find the best way.

Luckily I didn't have to think for long, Edward spoke up and got everyone's attention, "I'm so glad we could all get together tonight, Bella and I have an announcement." I looked up and got a reassuring smile from Rose, the guys looked clueless, but Alice looked like she was about to bounce out of her seat.

He looked at me, but I don't think I can say it. He takes back over, "We're having a baby!"

I was holding my breath, anxious for everyone's reaction. Alice jumped up and ran to hug me. "I'm so excited! We get to be pregnant together. This is going to be great, we can go shopping together and plan nurseries together." She was so excited and kept talking, I don't think she was even breathing.

All I could do was laugh as Jasper came up and gave me and Edward a hug and wrangled Alice back to her seat. Emmett was just as happy for us and I finally was able to relax a little.

Emmett called over champagne for everybody except me and Alice who got sparkling cider. "I'd like to toast to a new addition to the family ... well two new additions actually. We welcome you to the family Bella, and I can't wait to have a new niece or nephew.

…

The rest of dinner had been great, I really felt like a part of the family. Edward and I had a relaxing weekend just lazing around, that was until now. It's Sunday afternoon, we're on our way to his parent's house. Since we already told the others, we decided to come early for dinner to tell his parents.

After the reaction of his siblings I was feeling better. Of course I was still super nervous about telling Esme and Carlisle.

They were surprised by our early arrival, we followed them into the living room.

"It's so good to you again Bella." Esme said. She's so caring and how I always wished my mom would be more like. I was mostly nervous she would hate me. I've craved a motherly figure for so long, I didn't want to lose her already.

"Mom and Dad, we have something to tell you" I could tell he was getting a nervous about their reaction as well. "Bella and I have had a whirlwind romance, it wasn't planned…but…we'rehavingababy!" He said the last part so fast they didn't catch it.

I decided to step up and help him out. "What Edward was trying to say, is that I'm pregnant. We're having a baby."

It was no time at all before Esme jumped up. She was squealing and ran to give us both a hug.

"I love grandbabies, I'm so excited!"

"Whew, we were really nervous about telling you guys. Dad…what do you think?" I could tell he was anxiously waiting for his dad's response.

Carlisle got a big smile, "I'm so happy to be getting another baby to spoil!"

We both were so relieved that everyone took the news well. At least everyone in his family. My dad still had to be told. Now that REALLY made me nervous. I probably wouldn't even tell my mom. It's not like I've talked to her in the last 2 years anyways.

The rest of the night flies by, everybody else joins us and it's a night full of celebrating. I notice myself paying more attention to how Rose and Alice are with their kids.

I've never really been around babies or young kids much, and not having a good example in my own mom has me nervous about screwing up. At least now I have a great family to learn from.

I'm so relieved now that everybody knows, well almost everybody. I guess I need to tell Charlie soon. He wasn't a big part of my life growing up. We did get closer when I moved in with him though. Hopefully he'll be as excited as the Cullen's are.

Thank you so much for sticking with me. I hit a wall with my story but I'm back on track now. Let me know what you think about the announcements.

If I get 10 reviews I'll get the next chapter out by Friday.
