Enjoy this chapter! Poor Bella…


Previously…

"It's ringing!" I announced. I switched the phone to speaker so that everyone could hear.

"Hello?" A women's voice answered. Probably the house cleaner or something.

"Yes, is this Edward Cullen's number? Is he there?" I asked. I was shaky, nervous and excited. I could feel my heart pounding.

"Yes but he isn't available right now; he's in the shower." she replied.

I looked up and saw Rose with disbelief on her face.

"Who am I speaking to?" Rose asked.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm Jane Volturi, soon to be Jane Cullen- Edward's fiancé."

Bella's POV

Edward's fiancé?

That could not be right! He wouldn't. He promised me.

I was trembling and I could feel hot tears run down my face. I felt as if I had been stabbed allover, pain filled my body.

He said he never wanted to leave me. That he would stay forever and now he was gone. Gone to marry someone else. He was never going to marry me. He lied! He left and he didn't care that I would be hurting.

"He made me feel safe and loved for nothing!" I yelled.

I was hollow and broken. Everything was shattering and spinning. It was taking me in. Everything I had believed in was fake.

"It's not true! He can't!" I couldn't help cry. Cry my eyes out. Why would he do this to me?

"He promised me. He promised!" I was crying and shaking; everything was wrong. Nothing was right. This had to be a nightmare; my Edward would never do anything like this.

No calls. Had he gotten tired of me that it was a way of avoiding me? Had he planned this?

"Bella calm down! Its bad for you and the baby!" Rose and Emmett tried holding me down.

"This baby is his! I can't be a single mother. It needs a father. I can't Emmett. I can't do this." I sobbed into his shirt and let every curse word fill my mind.

Alice's POV

"That foul bastard! I'm going to track him down and shove his fucking promises down his throat! " Emmett was breathing heavily. He was always a protective brother and now I was sure he'd murder Edward if he saw him. He was causing Bella so much pain.

"Bella, Bella you need to calm down! Its going to harm your baby." Even now, Bella was too strong for Emmett to hold down.

"I can't Alice. How can you expect me to calm down? The one person I trusted the most is the one person I despise now. He left Alice! Don't you get it? He lied! Everything he said was fake! Nothing was real. HE is getting married Alice! Married to someone else!" Bella placed her hand on her abdominal and let herself fall to the ground. Sobbing and pushing everyone back, Bella cried. She was shaking so violently that it was scarring me. I had never seen her this way.

All my life I had known her I had thought that Edward would be her prince. It pissed me off to think how Edward could have fooled everyone and made high promises to Bella. I was always there for her; she always told me everything. If it hurt seeing Bella this way it must be eating Emmett alive. This must only be killing Bella with a passion. Nothing could hold her together now.

"Bella stop it!" Emmett was trying to hold Bella down who was still crying and shaking. "She's burning up! Call a doctor!"

Rose held the phone in her hand and dialed.

Rose's words were shaky and barely understandable. "He's coming."

I rushed to Bella's side and held her hand. Emmett, whom I had never seen cry was hysterical. Everyone else was too.

"Help me get her to her room." Emmett transferred Bella to her bedroom and went down to the lobby for the doctor.

"Rose help me take her sweater off." Rose held Bella who was awake but motionless as I unzipped her sweater.

"The doctor is here." Jasper and Emmett walked in with the doctor.

"You said she is a pregnant?" The doctor asked as a confirmation.

"Yes. 7 weeks." I answered.

"Please step out I need to examine her."

We did as we were told and waited outside. I was crying silently into Jasper's jacket.

"She's going to be fine. She's a strong girl." He soothed.

I nodded my head and turned towards Bella's room as the door opened.

"Bella!" Rose and I rushed to her side.

"The fever was a cause of high stress levels. Her body didn't know how to react to the stress and as a way to protect the body; the fever was used as a shield." The doctor informed.

"Is the baby alright?" Jasper asked.

"Yes, she and the baby are fine but in her state she shouldn't be receiving strong impacts. It is bad for the baby but also for her as well. The first trimester of a pregnancy is the most crucial and she needs to be serene. Has she had her first ultrasound?" The doctor asked.

"No and I'm not quite sure when it is." I said.

"Its sometime next week I believe." Emmett informed rubbing his forehead.

"I see. She and the baby are all right all I recommend is that she takes it easy and that she doesn't get any high impacts or notices of any sort. I gave her a sedative that will allow her to sleep a few hours." the doctor shook Emmett's hand and walked out.

Rose and I stayed in the room and watched Bella as she slept.

A tear spilled from her closed eyes but her breathing was becoming regular.

"I am going to murder him if I ever see him again. He better not dare show his fucking little pretty face if he wants to preserve it." Rose's words were frightful but I knew she was serious.

We all loved Bella; she was everyone's little sister and the one everyone protected the most. She was always care free and calm. There was nothing mean about her that's why everyone loved her. She could never harm anyone.

"Let her sleep." Rose and I turned toward the door and saw Emmett standing there with red puffy eyes.

We got off the bed, making sure she was snug and headed for the living room.

"You guys should go home. I'll make sure she's fine; I'll sleep in her room tonight in case she needs anything. Don't worry Emmett I'll take care of her." Everyone was exhausted and needed to rest. It had been a long day for everyone. First finding out Bella was pregnant and then finding out Edward was engaged to someone. It was too much for one day.

"Thank you Alice." Rose and Emmett went in to check on Bella one more time before leaving.

"Take care okay?" Jasper asked.

I nodded and gave him a kiss before shutting the door. None of us had had dinner but I wasn't feeling hungry. I walked into my room and striped the bed of the blankets and pillows. I dragged them into Bella's room and made myself a small bed on the side.

I left the bathroom light on so that a bit of light could illuminate the room incase Bella needed something.

---

In my sleep, I could hear Bella crying out for Edward. I hadn't realized how vivid her voice was until I realized it was she in real life.

I got up to check on Bella and make sure she was still asleep.

"Bella?" I asked. She wasn't in her bed.

"Bella?" I asked. From under the door, I could see light coming from the living room.

"Bella?" I opened the room door and was blinded by the light from the living room.

"Bella!" She was sitting on the couch crying. I rushed to her side but was careful where I stepped. She had knocked down a photo frame of her and Edward; the glass had been shattered.

"Sweaty don't cry." Watching my best friend- my sister made my heart sink, she seemed broken and distraught.

I couldn't help myself, I cried with her. We sat there quietly crying. She placed her head on my lap and rolled her self in a small ball.

"Why Alice? What did I do?"

"You can't blame yourself for this. You won't blame yourself for this you hear me!" I felt desperate and powerless sitting here not being able to do anything for her.

"He's engaged to some other woman. Before he left, he told me that when he got back he would propose and we would start planning our wedding. Why did he lie?" Her crying wasn't like before, she wasn't shaking and her breathing was controlled.

"He doesn't deserve you Bella."

"Was he lying each time he said 'I love you.' Did he mean all those goodnights he wished me a beautiful dream. Did he mean every touch. He never felt anything for me. I felt warm and loved by his side and now I feel empty." She shook her head and sat straight up facing me.

"I don't know." I answered honestly.

"I can't deny that I'm hurting because that would be a lie. I can't say that this isn't eating me inside when its really ripping me to pieces. I never felt so alone in my entire life. He was the one who filled me with joy. I never thought that he would be the one who would fill me with hate."

We sat on the couch quietly. I would let her pour her feelings out but she gave out. She laid on my shoulder and fell asleep.

I reached for the fleece throw on the armrest and thru it over us.

Bella's POV

When I woke up everything from the previous night rushed through my thoughts. It still hurt and I knew it would for sometime, unlike him I did love him.

I got up, trying to make the least bit of noise possible and ransacked the apartment.

I got hold of every picture that was in the apartment and shredded them with my hands. Each time felling a stab when I tore one.

The pictures, the teddy bears, the love letters he'd sent me each time we were apart, everything had to disappear… like he did.

I placed the stuff in the sink and reached in the drawer for a lighter.

"What are you doing?" I had heard Alice but had no intention of answering. "Stop it!" She tried taking the lighter away from my hands but failed.

"I don't want anything to do with him Alice. He's a fake." She stared at me as if I was crazed.

"You can't forget him this way." She reached for the teddy bear and hid it behind her back. I'd get it eventually.

"Yes I can." I blocked her from the sink and lit everything up.

"Bella!"

"No Alice. I honestly believed in him. He promised me false hope. I was so excited to think we could get married and have our baby. He left Alice. He left and never bothered to call and now he's getting married."

We remained in silence as everything burned.

Tears stinging in my eyes I watched as all our memories burned. They would turn to ashes and nothing more.

"He probably never had the intention of marrying me. He just told me that so I wouldn't follow." I said, laughing darkly.

"You know that's not true." She countered.

"Do I Alice?" I was starting to get infuriated again.

"Everything from day one was a lie. He probably just needed someone to have fun with here while his girlfriend back in England sat waiting for him. He's worthless Alice. He has no value whatsoever. And you know what?" I tried holding back a cry of hurt but in cracked words was able to speak. "He's dead to me Alice. MY baby and I don't need him."

"Your right Bella." I looked her in shock that she had agreed but honored myself with pride.

"As much as I once asserted to love him I now despise and resent ever knowing him." I was filled with hatred and bitterness something I never had.

"Your baby needs you Bella. He or she needs a loving mother who will protect it no matter what. Think only about yourself and the baby, forget everything else Bella. He's got you and doesn't need anybody else." My baby was my only priority now.

"Only my baby matters." I said.


(A/N) So Bella is obviously torn with what happened. L The next chapter will be in Edward's POV.
