Summary; It had been one night, one night she had let her friends persuade her to let loose and have fun, a little to much fun. She didn't expect herself to wake up the next morning in Edward Cullen's bed, nor did she expect to find herself standing in front of him with life changing news a month later. Life was about to get interesting.

Edward

"You're going all the way to Toronto for Thanksgiving Break? Don't they have a different thanksgiving than we do?" I asked Bella as I lounged on her bed and she packed.

"I haven't seen my dad in ages Edward, and I usually go to my moms but she hasn't said a word to me since I told her about the baby." She said sadly as I nodded. It was at times like these that I was thankful about how supportive my parents were.

We had told my parents just a couple days after the whole Emmett debacle, as we had taken to calling it. While they hadn't been angry, they hadn't been too excited either, but they were coming around to the idea, especially my mother. She was excited to be getting a grandchild, despite the inopportune moment, and I swear she was already buying baby clothes and stashing them away somewhere in the house.

"How is your dad handling it all?" I asked as she came out of the closet and shrugged.

"I mean he's not exactly thrilled that someone knocked up his 'baby girl', but he's coming around. Sue's excited though," she laughed. "Makes one person."

"Hey you're excited too, don't tell me you're not. Every time we pass a shop with baby things inside your eyes go wide, and get all bright." I said as she laughed, coming to lie next to me.

"I'm getting there. It's weird to think of myself as a mom. I don't know how to be one, it's nerve-wracking, but we still have time to figure things out." Resting her hand on my chest I ran a hand through her hair. We had decided on a relationship because of the baby, but all in all, things were going pretty well.

Bella was exactly the type of person I need in my life. She was sensible and level headed, a spitfire, making her opinion known if she didn't agree with something. She was the right amount of everything that I needed, and even though we had come together because of this baby, I knew our relationship was turning out to be so much more.

Hours later after Bella had already boarded the plane and I was back in the apartment I sat down to really look at things. The baby was thankfully due after graduation, but from there we wouldn't have much time left. Other than discussing getting together last month we hadn't talked about much else. Would we continue being together, move in together, eventually get married? Who knew, but I hoped that we would at least stay together for the child's sake.

Things had gotten better in the house after Bella had bluntly told everyone about her pregnancy. Emmett had apologized to Bella and I a few days after the entire debacle, and things were getting back to normal.

"Hey Ed" Jasper said as I walked into the house, plopping down on the couch next to him.

"Hey Jasper"

"Just get back from dropping Bella at the airport?" he asked me as I nodded.

"Yeah, stopped at the library after to get a little homework done. Is it bad that I think Thanksgiving is going to be boring without her this year? My mom really wanted her to join us."

"Eh, priorities change with time." He said as Emmett and Paul (another teammate) came into the house.

"Boys" Emmett drawled, pushing his way in between Jasper and I as we started to laugh. "Since we have Eddie-boy here all to ourselves, I say we go into a video game coma, except for practices, and Mrs. Cullen's wonderful Thanksgiving Dinner."

"Deal" we said simultaneously, diving to get the best controllers.

Bella Swan

Toronto, Ontario

Tuesday, November 26, 2013

Pulling up to my dad's house I couldn't help but smile. The large two story colonial house in the Toronto Suburbs was my home. A lawn littered with children's toys, my younger twin brothers doing, my fathers Mercedes in the yard, and Sue's Altima behind it. Lights on in the kitchen, and upstairs bedroom where I knew my brothers' nursery to be, it was nice to actually be home again.

"Thank you for everything" I said to the cabby as I handed him cash, taking my suitcase from his hand. Rolling the suitcase up the front walk way I knocked on the door, Sue opening it up with a gasp.

"Bella, sweetheart I didn't know you were coming to visit." She said, welcoming me inside, and taking my coat as I slipped off my shoes.

"I thought I would surprise you all for Thanksgiving. Dad is home this break right? I checked the schedule, they have home games." I said as she nodded.

"Yes, yes, he's upstairs getting the boys ready for bed. But I'm sure they would love having their favorite sister read them a bedtime story." She said as I nodded. "You know, pregnancy suits you." She said as we moved into the kitchen, a little smile appearing on my face.

"Thank you" I said biting my lip.

"How is everything, with the father and all?" Sue asked me as I looked down at the counter, a blush coming across my cheeks. "That well, huh?" she laughed as I nodded.

"Edward is great, he's been there for me. He didn't put up a fight when I told him; he's been my rock since I'm still struggling with it all, honestly he's handling everything better than I thought he would."

"That's nice to hear" my dad said from behind me as I smiled and turned around, rushing into his arms. "It's nice to see you sweetheart."

"Same here, I've missed you guys so much."

"We've missed you too, now if I would have known you were coming I would have had you read to your brothers, you know how much they love when 'Bella reads them a story'." Dad mocked as I laughed. "But we still have a couple days, when do you have to be back?"

"Sunday night."

He nodded, grabbing a beer out of the fridge before following Sue and I into the living room. "So, tell us a little about this boy. Speaking of which, why didn't he come with you?"

"His mom holds a big dinner for his entire team every Thanksgiving. I guess since they boys don't usually get to go home, she has everyone there. I was invited, but I needed to come home while I still could."

"His team? He's an athlete?" Sue asked as I nodded.

"Hockey player"

Dad raised an eyebrow in my direction but didn't say anything. It almost looked as if he had smirked in Sue's direction. "So how about you tell us this boys name, and a little more than just 'he's a hockey player'."

I nodded; guess I would have to placate them. "What do you what to know? I mean I just don't want to go off spitting out random information."

"How about you start with his age, and his major." Sue said.

"He's twenty-three, and is actually majoring in pre-med. He won't continue on after graduation though, I don't think. He's drafted so I know he has plans to go home and play if he gets asked to come up that soon." I paused for just a moment before continuing; apparently I didn't need them to egg me on once I started talking about him. "Kind of like me, Edward is following in his dad's footsteps. His dad is the team doctor for the Bruins, so he's always been around hockey like me. His parents are the sweetest people ever, and they don't treat me like a social pariah because I'm the girl their son got pregnant. Edward's convinced that his mom is stashing baby clothes around their house, and it's nice to have someone near to talk to about the baby because mom isn't talking to me" as I went to continue dad cut me off,

"Wait, what do you mean your mother isn't talking to you?" he asked angrily as I gulped slowly.

"Mom hasn't spoken a word to me since I told her I was pregnant. I've called them a couple times, but no one picks up the phone, or calls me back. I leave messages, they just, don't reply."

"Are you kidding me? That women is so frustrating. The situation would be different if you were underage, but you're twenty-one years old, you're an adult, and responsible for your own actions. Hell you're more responsible than Renee half the time."

"Dad, I'm just, I'm trying not to dwell on it all. Edward is there for me as much as he can be, his parents are great, and I have you an Sue, and I just if mom doesn't want to be there then she doesn't have to."

He didn't say anything for a moment or two before letting out a deep breath. "So this kid really isn't as bad as I want to make him out to be, is he?" he asked as I laughed.

"No, Edward is great."

"You said that he's drafted, where to?" Sue asked as I smiled.

"The Chicago Blackhawks, I guess his family is from Chicago, and his dad used to be the team doctor there before getting an offer from Boston."

"Wait, is his dad Carlisle Cullen?" dad asked from next to Sue as I nodded. Dad started laughing before stopping at the confused looks of Sue and I. "I'm sorry, but Carlisle and I went to school together, played hockey together. Granted he was a year or two older than I was, and a year ahead, but still we played together. He decided to go to med-school rather than play hockey, while I decided that hockey was a better option."

"You're joking?" I asked as he shook his head.

"Not at all. Carlisle Cullen, he married Esme Platt two years after graduation, last I heard of him she was pregnant, must be with that boy you're having a kid with. Wow, who would have thought that was almost twenty-four years ago?"

"Well this goes to show it really is a small world." Sue said as my phone started to ring.

"It's Edward, I better take this." I said, moving into the other room so I wouldn't disrupt dad and Sue.

Edward POV

Thursday, November 28, 2013

Sitting in the living room of the Boston house I couldn't help but continuously laugh at the antics of the boys. "Are you kidding me?" Emmett yelled at the football game as I rolled my eyes. I knew absolutely nothing about football, nor did I care about it, but seeing as it was Thanksgiving, we decided that we might as well carry on the cliché tradition of watching a football game before dinner.

"Hey where is everyone" someone called from the front hall way as I suddenly became excited at the voice.

"Alice!" I yelled excitedly, running from where I sat in the living room to the front hallway like an excited child at Christmas time. "Alice!" I yelled again as I saw her, picking her up and spinning her around as she laughed.

"Hell you would think it's been like a year since you saw me!" she joked as she hugged me back.

"What the hell are you doing here, I thought you wouldn't be back until Christmas?" I asked her as mom and dad came into the room, excited smiles donning their faces as well.

"I missed you guys, I mean there is only so much of Europe I can see before getting completely bored." She laughed before leaving my arms to hug mom and dad. "So what is this I hear about you knocking up some chick, please tell me it isn't Tanya." She said with a fake gag as I rolled my eyes.

"No, it isn't Tanya, and before you start looking around, she isn't here. She went to visit her dad for Thanksgiving."

"Damn, well I want to meet her. What's her name, where is she from, am I getting a niece or a nephew?" she asked as she kicked off her shoes and literally dragged me into the living room.

I didn't matter that she was a good foot shorter than I was, and probably a hundred pounds lighter, someway my twenty year old sister always found a way to drag me around. "Her name is Bella, she's from, well a lot of places really, her mom moved around a lot, and we don't know yet she's only two and a half months along Alice."

She opened her mouth to say something before making eye contact with the one person she had ran to Europe to forget. "Jasper" she said breathlessly as he stood there stunned.

"Hey" he said quietly as the boys, old and new stood there, wondering what was going to happen next.

She stood up tall, unlinking her arm from mine. "How are you? How's Maria?" she asked him as he shook his head.

"I'm fine, she's well, not in the picture anymore." He said quietly as she smirked.

"Well, what do you expect? Once a gold digger always a gold digger." Alice said before turning around and heading up the stairs to her room as Jasper groaned.

"Alice" he called after her. "Alice, please, wait." He said, following her up the stairs as the rest of the team, and my parents looked around for a signal.

"Can someone please tell me what the hell that was about?" One of the freshman spoke from the back of the group as Paul and AJ groaned.

"Kid, you don't want to know."

Authors Note;

So there is my introduction of Alice, Edward's younger sister, and as many could probably tell she was once connected to Jasper in some way.

I know the chapter wasn't as long as it should be, but I had a bit of trouble writing this chapter. I'm on Spring Break so I hope to update once or twice more before I go back to school to finish my final stretch of the semester. I would love some reviews, they make me update quicker, and if anyone has any suggestions then feel free to send them in a review or PM.

Much Love,

Lauren
