No, don't worry. I haven't turned this into one of those stories. Just wait for it...


I exited Carlisle's office after discovering what I had known about all along, but never had proof. My heart rate increased with every step I took to bring myself to Edward's room. His door was open, welcoming me immediately.

"Bella!" he grinned as I walked in awkwardly.

I wasn't sure if he sensed how uncomfortable I was, but he swept me off my feet and sat me down on his couch as if he did.

I had spent the past few days sleeping at the Cullen's with the idea planted in Charlie's mind that Edward was visiting a friend of his from Chicago. We spent a lot of our time working on our Biology project, but certainly not all of it.

"Edward..." I started uneasily.

He turned away from the CD's he had been studying intently to look at me.

"Remember what we did the other night...?" I looked down away from his careful gaze.

"How could I forget?" He smirked, leaning in to press his lips to my neck.

I gasped at his cold touch, but continued as though I wasn't embarassed at the current situation.

"Well, some... things, have been happening lately and..." I trailed off suggestively.

The smile dropped from his face immediately as realization struck him. "No." He gasped almost silently.

"I checked the symptoms online... and its the only explanation..." I was already tearing up.

"But, we used protection!"

"I know, but..."

I couldn't continue, no matter how I tried.

Edward sat in thought for a moment.

It was unbearable to sit there and watch the agony clearly drawn on his face. He looked at the floor as if expecting an answer to arise from that very spot. The sight nearly tore my heart in two. Perhaps it was a bit of an over exaggeration, but I felt horrible for what had happened.

Any other person in their right mind would not feel terrible. They wouldn't even feel the slightest bit of worry, sadness, or anxiety that we felt at the moment.

He finally looked up into my eyes and asked the question I was worried about the entire time. "How will we tell them?"

I had no answer.

And I knew that we should not put off telling Carlisle, but I still found comfort in the fact that it would not have to come out right this moment. Edward, on the other hand, felt differently.

"We need to tell them now."

I gasped, but nodded in approval. There was no way of avoiding it.


"Edward?" Carlisle questioned before anyone else could, "Why have you called us all into the living room."

Alice stood in the corner, happy as ever. She had a huge grin on her face which spread wider and wider by the second.

I never understood her. She must have missed the vision of us telling the family this because her smile could not come from this situation.

Edward drew in a deep breath from beside me. "Bella and I have something to tell you... Althought I'm not sure why the rest of you are here."

"Well, I think the whole family should know!" Alice squealed. "Duh!"

He paused for a moment and glanced at me.

"Go on." Carlisle urged.

I opened my mouth and quickly closed it. I couldn't say it.

Edward and I both stared at the floor.

The seconds ticked by until Alice finally burst. "FINE. I'll tell them!"

Everyone turned to look towards her, where she was standing by a thick door.

"Edward and Bella are having a baby."

The silence that followed was seemingly ten minutes long.

It was finally broken by Edward.

"ALICE!" He growled. "She is not pregnant!"

"Actually..." I mumbled, "We, umm, kinda accidentally downloaded a virus on Carlisle's computer."

The entire family stared at me.

Rosalie broke the silence this time. "Well why the hell were you making such a big deal just now?"

I suppose we had seemed a little melodramatic. "We feel really bad."

Carlise finally spoke up and erased our worries. "I know how to handle computers." His voice alone was soothing. "I can fix the computer."

Edward and I both sighed in relief.

Suddenly Alice pointed her finger in our faces. "Explain the vision to me, then!" She looked so furious it actually began to scare me.

"Why did you say "Remember what we did the other night?" and Edward said "How could I forget?"?!?"

My eyebrows knitted together. "We worked together on the Biology project, and Edward couldn't forget because we finished a lot of it..."

Her expression changed from shock to determination. "What about the whole "symptoms" thing!?!"

Edward answered this one for me. "Carlisle's computer was acting strange lately."

Alice gasped. "Then what about when Edward said you used protection?!?"

I began laugh as I suddenly realized how our conversation could easily confuse anyone who was listening in.

"Alice!" I blushed. "We had downloaded the McAfee anti virus program before using it!!"

Edward was still fuming beside me. "Alice! I cannot believe you would think I got her pregnant!"

He stormed out of the room and slammed the door behind him.

A stunned silence followed his exit.

Suddenly Alice opened the door behind her to reveal a closet full of blue and pink clothing.

With a pout on her face she began to complain.

"What am I going to do with all this baby clothing, then?"


I had to write it, but it probably isn't staying.

I haven't re-read it so I apologize for spelling errors or really horrible order.
