Author's Note: Let's answer some more questions that my wonderful fans have asked me!

1. Some of you think that Bella is starting to get a little bit out of character, but listen closely. Edward just showed up, out of the blue, and insulted her daughter. How would you act if that happened, regardless of if the child was right or wrong! I won't even mention what Edward's done to her alone! Also, Bella isn't the same person that Edward fell inlove with, she's changed and has matured. Don't forget that she was married to Jacob Black, that was bound to change her! For better, or for worse!

2. Now, I don't want you guys to start to hate Desiree. She's five, she's not completely controlled of her emotions, nor does she like the fact that her mother could be happy without her father. Think about it, if something happened to your father/mother at that age, would you want the other one to have someone who could replace them?

3. Keep in mind, even though Bella shot him, it couldn't have hurt him anyways!

Again, questions or comments are loved!

"Come on, Bella, you know this won't hurt me!"

"I know that, but it'll make me happy." I started grinning.

Then I shot him.

I knew it was heartless of me to do that, but NO ONE messes with my baby. I knew it wouldn't kill him so I saw no harm done, sure he might feel some pain, but it wouldn't kill him, so that was the important thing.

Though it sure felt good doing it. The nerve of him! Showing up--not even telling me--and calling my child a 'filthy mutt'? If anybody else would have done it, it would have killed them, but this isn't anybody else. It was the cause of my misery over the last few years.

But then it hit me completely who I had shot. I had shot Edward, the one who not only caused me misery, but more happiness than I could have gotten anywhere else in the world. I couldn't believe I had done it, even after all those nights I had stayed up calming myself thinking about how he could feel some of my pain.

Then I fell to the floor crying. Edward had started to reach for me, but Desiree started to growl at him. It wasn't one of those human growls that people use when they get angery, though. It was one an animal would use when something it didn't like when too close to something that it cared for. But Edward just growled back at her.

"Listen you two, now is not the time, nor place for your guy's childish behavior!" I said through my tears.

Edward was then able to pick me up and sit beside me while Des sat on Emmett's lap glaring and snarling under her breath. Like father like daughter.

After I had calmed down some, I realized who I was sitting by, and who had an arm around my waist. I didn't want him anywhere near me, even if I did feel sorry for hurting him. So I pushed him away from me and he didn't try to stop me.

I sat back in my original seat and glared at him. "What do you want, Edward?"

"To talk," he replied.

"Fine, you have two minutes. Then I want you out of here." I wouldn't budge on this either.

"Bella, come on! Two minutes won't get me anywhere!"

"A minute and fourty-five seconds, now." I looked at the watch I kept on at all times.

He sighed. "Fine, if that's the way you want it. Bella, I have missed you. Please take me back."

I laughed at him. "You can't be serious! After all this time has passed, do you actually expect that to work?"

"Now, Bella.."

"Answer the question, Mr. Edward," Desiree said sweetly. I smiled at her. Even when someone was mean to her, she still used her manners like me and her father had taught her.

"Yes, please do." I wasn't expecting an answer, but it was worth a try. "And while you're at it, you can explain to me why you called my daughter a filthy mutt."

Edward looked to Emmett for help, but he wasn't giving any. When he figured it out he said. "I have a perfectly good reason for calling your...child," He made it sound like he wanted to use a different word than child, goodthing he didn't though because I would have tried to kill him right then and there. "That. she pushed me against the wall and threatened me."

I had to laugh at that. "You're telling me that you almost got the crap beat out of you by a five year old?"

"Yes I am."

"Edward, my child is not violent."

"Bella, let's not talk about this right now, I have only a few seconds left. Do you want anything to do with me?" He was begging with his eyes for me to except him but I just looked away. I didn't want to be lured into another thing like last time he did that.

"Edward, you have got to be kidding. Even if I did still want you--" I wanted him more than anything in the world at that moment. "I wouldn't take you back because if I'm going to be with someone, they are going to have to except my child. You don't seem to be able to though." I sighed

"That child is a demon!"

"Enough. You're time is up, you can leave now." Then I added, "Oh, just so you know, I'm going to start locking my windows at night so you can't come in. Don't even bother trying." I started to push him to the door,and shockingly didn't try to stop me. "Desiree, say goodbye to Mr. Edward."

Desiree then skipped up to him and said, "Mommy, can you pic me up? I want to give Mr. Edward a kiss on the cheek." She grinned at me.

"Sure babe."

I lifted her up and she hugged him and kissed him on the cheek like she said she would. Then I heard her whisper, "Looks like the filthy mutt won this round, doesn't it?" I desided to ignore what she said.

"Only one battle. The war isn't over yet." Then he looked at me. "Bella, I am willing to fight for you, to prove that I love you more than anybody in the whole would if you let me."

"You can try. But it will be hard work. The only way to do it though is to prove it by excepting my daughter into your life, not only me." Then, just like my daughter, I kissed him on the cheek and whispered something completely different from what she said. "It'll be hard work though, are you up for a challenge?"

Then he smiled a true smile, so different than the other ones he had done tonight, "Bella, I'd do anything for you. Even if it includes putting up with a demon child."

"She has a name, Edward." I didn't know how well this was going to work. "Use it."

"Desiree, then."

"Better, not the best, but..better."

I knew this was going to give me time. Enough that my the time that he had excepted my daughter, I wouldn't be morning for Jacob. I promised myself, though, that I would always use his last name though, and I planned to still.

As soon as I shut the door I started to spin my wedding ring that I still wore around and around my finger.

Author's Note: I know this wasn't one of my best or longest chapters, but I kind of like it. I promise that the next one will be better, though! So, review!
