Chapter 4
Alone
I was a little more relaxed after I talk with Edward's family. I knew that they were going to support us; I mean is not like Edward was a real teenager.
We went to my place after that, Carlisle told us that we can go with a regular doctor; he thinks that the pregnancy is normal. Edward made a date for Monday, I'm not happy about it. I hate doctor, but I know I have to go. After we talk with our family, I feel happier about my baby.
It's been 2 days since we told Edward's family; he told I can't go to gym anymore, so I'm official out, and I don't know why I'm so mad about it. I hate gym class, but. I feel that my life have change so much and I'm so scared. I don't want to be a teen mom and the worst part is that I can't do anything to help it. Charlie invited me to dinner today, so we are going to Port Angeles. Edward is freaking it out. He gave me a list of things that I can't do!!!
I think is the perfect opportunity to tell Charlie, but I can't do it. I know I'm stupid for wasting this chance, besides it's been a lot since Charlie and I have dinner together.
Charlie was waiting for me on the parking lot. I said good bye to Edward and we went to our "father-daughter" thing. Edward warning me not do anything to "funny", seriously I don't know what he had against living life, like the other day, I want to go with Jake to a party in la Push and he don't let me go.
"Hi Bells" my dad greeted me. "How was school?" he asked me. This was weird, I think he suspect the truth, but he refuses to believe it.
"It was…good" I said "Same as always"
"Listen, I'm waiting for a fax. Do you mind delay our dinner a little bit?" I was starving! Well may be I can eat a snack, is not big deal.
"Sure, not problem" I said while I took my cookies from the backpack.
"Someone has put on weight lately, huh?" I froze as soon the words leave his mouth "Actually I want to talk to you about it. Don't you think you are eating more lately? I'm not saying you are fat or something like that is just that is really weird on you. You have always been very slim. May be we should go see Carlisle." I remain in silence until we get home. As soon as we arrive I run to my room to cry. I have to tell him now.
After an hour Charlie came to my room "Hey Bells, we can go now. Why are you crying" he asked worried. "Oh God, is because I what I said on the car. I'm so sorry Bells, you're not fat. You are beautiful, I'm a jackass."
"I'm pregnant" I suddenly said.
"What" he yelled me. That made me angry. I know I don't have right, but he yelled me.
"I'M PREGNANT" I yelled back.
"HOW CAN YOU BE PREGNANT?" why is he yelling me?
"Well you see, when mommy and daddy…" I was interrupted.
"Don't be cynical Bells, what I mean is that there are so many ways to not get pregnant, but you guys had to play Russian roulette" he said without shouting now, but still very angry "I have no problem with Edward and you having…having fun. But, Why not take precautions? Why ruin your life like that? I don't understand! " He finished. I didn't have the answer, I couldn't' tell him that my boyfriend is a 100 years old vampire and we never thought that I could get pregnant, I don't think that a condom would work . So I remain in silence.
A few minutes later he spoke again "And what are you going to do now? What are you going to do with your life?" As the words left his mouth, I felt so alone, more alone than ever. I felt so abandoned and I did the first thing that I thought, what any girl on my place will do.
"I don't know yet" I said in a low voice "I'm thirsty, I'll go to the kitchen for water," as I reached the bottom of the stairs, I took the keys to my truck and ran without looking back. Charlie obviously heard when I left, but he'll not chase me. I hope. I turned on the truck and hit the gas, there was no way I would face this alone. I needed Edward with me, so I went to his house, Charlie kept calling me, so I turned off my cell, I couldn't speak with him now.
When I get to the Cullen's house, Edward was waiting for me outside.
"Oh God, Bella. I was so worry. Charlie calls me, he is furious. Why you didn't wait for me? I thought you'll wait for me." He said hugging me. "Please, tell me what's going on." He begs me.
"I'm sorry. I didn't want to tell him that way, but he said me that I was put on weight and I just couldn't, I'm sorry- I said crying. "You should have seen his face, he was so disappointed, he hates me.
"Shh love, it's ok. I'm sure he doesn't hate you. He is just shocked for the new. You have to give him time." He sure me. "Lets get inside; we can talk better in my room." He took me to his bedroom
"It was horrible, he said that I was ruining my life, I think he want me to have an abortion" I is no way I would have an abortion.
"I'm sorry I wasn't there." I was still crying "Babe you have to understand, he didn't mean anything that he said. We have to go back to your house; I want to talk to him. "
"Are you sure? He is very mad." Well he can't harm him.
"Bella, I want to explain him our plans" our plans? We haven't decided it anything yet.
"But what plans? Edward we haven't even talk about our wedding." I don't even know if we are going to get married. "I have been thinking about it, and if we are getting married, then I want to do it after our baby birth"
"Bella I want to be with my son or daughter all the time" he told me.
"And I understand, that's why I can move inn with you" ok that sounds weird "I mean, we will figure it out"
"So you want we live together, but you don't want to married with me?" Oh crap, here we go.
"I never said that, is just that I'm pregnant Edward. I'm 18 and I'm pregnant and I'm really scared. You don't understand what I feel when I told my father that his little girl was pregnant, you don't understand why is feel that your life is ruin it just for one mistake. I didn't want this, I just want us happy." Why he can't understand me?
"I understand you Bella, but I want to do things right. I made a mistake I shouldn't have sex with you before marriage and I don't want to make things worse, I want to fix it" he sound very sad.
"So we are talking about values?" I asked him.
"Yes Bella. We are talking about my values" I stand up immediately.
"You have to be kidding me! Because we can talk about values when you get your girlfriend knock up." I shouted.
"Oh right, so I made a mistake I can't fix it." He asked me.
"So we are a mistake" I begun to cry, we are a mistake. He doesn't love, he just feel responsible. I'm alone. Well we are alone.
"Oh baby, I'm sorry. Forgive; I don't want to make you cry. Let's forget about marriage" of course, he doesn't want to married with me anymore. "And yes I want married with you, but I want you to be sure about it." He answered me before I could ask.
"Edward I do want to married with you. Is just that if we married now I would feel like is just for our baby and I don't want that. I want to married with you feeling that is just for love" I told him.
"Ok, lets get married when the baby born, what do you think?" he was more relaxed.
"I think is perfect" I hugged him while he kisses me "I love you"
"I love you too Bella. And I will always do" he broke our kiss.
"We have to go with Charlie" argh I almost forget.
"Fine, but I have to eat first" he chuckled.
"Ok love. Esme made dinner for you" Good, because I was starving.
The dinner was awesome. As soon as I finish, we go to my house. I feel bad for Charlie, I shouldn't have told him that way. And I shouldn't have gone that way. He doesn't deserve that, it was my mistake. He has all the right to be mad with me.
When we get to the house he was waiting for us in the living room, he has the TV on but I don't think he was watching it, he doesn't look mad anymore, he just look sad. And that's worse. I didn't do what to do so I just take sit on the couch, Edward follow me. Charlie spoke first.
"Bella you had me worried," he said in a voice much quieter, but I still could see the disappointment and some anger in his eyes. "Please don't do that again" I just nodded "Edward, do you mind explaining this?" He said to my boyfriend.
"Charlie, first of all, I want to apologize. I'm aware that I didn't respect Bella. And I didn't respect your trust" he said, like the gentleman he is "But I can assure you that I will take my responsibility on this. Belle isn't alone." I almost cry. Stupid hormones.
"Yeah right as you're not the one who will have to give up her dream of going to college," he replied bitterly. "You are a guy Edward; you don't know what a woman has to give up for her baby "he said before being interrupted by Edward.
"Like I said. I will take full responsibility for our baby as Bella. And I can assure you that Bella will go to college, she just would have to wait a semester" he said politely as always. "I already talk to my parents and they give me full support, as my brothers. My mother told me that she can care our baby when Bella enters to collage "he said.
"And what are you going to do? I don't think any of you would like live with Carlisle and Esme forever. You have to get a job and a house you really know how much money a baby cost? " If he only knew that we will live with them for all the eternity "A baby is really expensive, you have to buy him or she diapers, clothes, formula, etc. It's a lot of money and I do not think that is fair to your parents pay for it" I had not thought of that. I couldn't tell Charlie that Edward had enough money to live a life of luxury for all eternity.
"My parents won't do that, I will find a job and will go to college" he said as he gave me a kiss on the hand.
"Well I think you guys have everything planned" he told us as he stood "Bella I didn't mean what I said, I was just in shock. You know you have my full support" He said while hugging me.
"I will let you talk" said Edward.
"Bella, I'm a little disappointed, I thought you will know better than this" he said to me "You have to be aware that a baby is a big responsibility, I don't say that is a wonderful thing, but your life will never be the same once your baby is born."
"I know, but the truth is…" I said as I felt my eyes moisten "The truth is that I'm very scared dad. I didn't want this, but I want to take my responsibility too. And I want to know that you love me and that I still am you daughter" I said as I snuggled into his arms, like I used to do it when I was little.
"I know you didn't want this and unfortunately this is a consequence of a little mistake" he said making circles on my back. "But nobody said you have to marry, you and your baby can live with me. You can finish college and get a good job." Although I knew that it was offering with the best intentions, I couldn't help but be angry, he misinterprets my words. I didn't want to marry young, but I wanted to spend eternity with Edward and my baby, I was very sure of that.
"Thank you, but I can't live a life without Edward" I said kissing his cheek. "But is good to know that I'm not alone on this. Thank you very much dad."
"You're welcome sweetheart, I love you" we stayed like this until I fell asleep in his arms.
