Chapter 7
Edward flew down the back roads, with speeds of over ninety. I knew he was curious to find out if he was a father. We made it to Carlisle's office in record time.
I felt a little nausea due to Edwards driving, but I wondered if it wasn't a baby. I had to be close to three months along, because that was the last time we had been together, before I began shooting. He had made one trip to where we where shooting, but we hadn't done anything that weekend. I had been unable to get off the lot, so we just said we where high school friends, and he had come for a visit.
I opened the door to the office, and stepped inside.
"Carlisle?" I yelled out.
"Bella, Edward, come on back. Only you two, please."
"Sorry Shauna." I said, and she huffed.
"I had better be named god mother after all this." She said in a low whisper, which I chose to ignore, knowing that both Alice and Rose would want to be part god mothers as well.
I walked back nervous. "Hi," I said to Carlisle, who had set up a sonogram machine.
"Bella, how did you keep it a secret, I am very upset with both of you, you chose not to annul the marriage, like your parents wished."
"We where of age, and we are in love."
"I'm not going to say anything, by some miracle, you made it work. I shall give you my blessing, and hope that you are pregnant. Bella, lay down, and pull your shirt up, Edward, turn away."
"But…"
"No buts young man, you are in serious trouble. I might let Alice loose on you." Edward did as he was told, and turned away.
"Carlisle, I want Edward to see, he has seen every part of me, and I want him to be here to hear the heartbeat of his child if there is one."
"You hear that Edward, your wife is generous, turn around. Bella, this is going to be a little cold."
I flinched slightly as the get was placed on my stomach. He started to twirl a stick thing on my stomach. I heard a gulag gulag gulag sound.
"Well, that is your babies heartbeat. Do you see this peanut shaped thing?" Carlisle pointed to a shape on the screen. I nodded, and felt Edwards hand "That is my grandchild, or your baby if you are feeling selfish. Congrats you two, let's hope this child don't start high school like you two did."
"Where we that bad?" Edward asked innocently.
"You threw mud at her. You made her cry, do I need to keep going? Oh, and how about the time you got married on a bet, and you didn't annul it."
"I'm never going to live the mud incident down am I."
"No, I don't know how you two ever got together, and I don't think I ever want to know."
"You can thank Alice for that." Edward said, "but it was the best mistake of my life."
"Are you pregnant?" Shauna asked from the doorway, "all I am hearing about it a mud slinging incident, which is a cute way to meet. Bring that up in the interview you have with E! Friday."
"The mud incident is not coming up any more. I was fourteen."
"Old enough to know not to do it." Carlisle said.
"I wanted to see if it matched her eyes."
"Did it?" I asked.
"No, they are closer to chocolate."
"Know I know why you like chocolate." Carlisle said
"Are you pregnant?"
"Yes," Carlisle, Edward and I said at the same time.
"She is about three months along." Carlisle continued, "Edward, you will have to get her pre-natal medicines, if Bella Swan would walk in a pharmacy and ask for pre-natal pills, it would be hell."
"Damn strait, Bella, I want to offer my congratulations." Shauna said, "Edward, are you sure about going public, you are going to be in the lime light almost as much as Bella, until the craze dies down."
"Shauna, I think I am going to hold off on doing anything other than appearances until after the baby is born. My next project isn't for a year, I'm three months along, I'm due in April, I believe, it's October, and I am here anyways for the next six months, with the exception of the Awards Season, and few public appearances with my latest movie, oh, and Edward is to be on my arm at all events.
"I need to tell Alice to get you a tux ready." I continued.
"So, your going to drop off the scene until the baby is born?"
"Yea, I'm due the same month that Jazz and Ali's wedding is. I have another six months off, as long as you didn't green light any new projects in the last 2 days." Shauna shook her head. "So, I can focus on giving the baby what they need until it's six months old."
"You have this all figured out don't you," I nodded.
"Now, I just have to tell the family. A double whammy in one day."
I hopped of the table, and tripped over my feet. Edward, caught me.
"How do you walk in heels?" Shauna asked.
"Lot's of practice. I am a bon-a-fide klutz. Freshman year, I tripped over a stick, placed by my husband," I play glared at him, "broke my ankle."
"Edward must of hated you in high school."
"Actually, I loved her. Even then, and I felt that by teasing her, I would convey the message."
"Typical male. A way to a woman's heart is threw her stomach, that and sweet nothings."
"Shauna, don't tell him that, he will do nothing to me, and think it's sweet. Edward, remember the whole food thing when it's three in the morning, and I want something stupid to eat."
"Bella, here is your pre-natal scripts, I would like to lock up. Oh, wait, I need to get something to sedate the guys with. They are already upset that your 'married' to Mike Newton, but now finding out your still married, and pregnant with Edwards child, is going to send them over the edge.
"Charlie is already sedated, so I hope he will take the news well enough, but the big boy's are going to be a hand full." Carlisle laughed. "Edward, how's your nose feeling?"
"Fine. Why?"
"It won't be for long." Carlisle said, and Edward gulped.
