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.

Chapter Four

January 28, 2014

Edward POV

Walking through campus I yawned. Having spent the night at Bella's the night before I was tired, a late night craving had me running to the nearest McDonald's for McFlurry for Bella. As much as I understood that pregnancies made the women crave weird things, I hated that I had to be the one to get up and go buy whatever Bella wanted.

As I arrived at the rink I wondered how the hell I was going to get through this practice without falling asleep. "Tired bro?" AJ asked as he came up next to me as I yawned once more.

"Hell yes, I need like three days more of sleep to catch up on what I've lost." I said as he laughed. "Dude it's not funny, you try waking up at odd hours to go get what you're pregnant girlfriend is currently craving, you can't say no."

"Tell her to go get it herself, or keep whatever she wants in the house." He said causing me to look at him and laughed.

"Okay, do you want me to get my head bit off, chewed, and spit out? You can't tell a pregnant chick to go get it herself, that is asking to have your balls chopped off. And as for the second one, I tried that. It worked for a little bit until she woke up to find Emmett eating her ice cream. Yeahhh, that one didn't turn out to pretty." The kid laughed, as we walked into the locker room where Emmett was standing in the middle rocking out to whatever music he was listening too.

"Please tell me that someone took a video of all that?" I asked, using my hands to motion to Emmett's awkwardness.

"Oh, yeah" Mike said from the corner, waving his phone as I unscrewed the cap of his water bottle without him noticing.

"Fantastic" With hockey practices, games, homework, classes, and taking care of Bella all the hours in the day were pretty limited. I had almost everything planned out to a t, and it seemed as though I was just getting by. My professors, teammates, coaches, they all knew the sleep deprivation was getting to me, but if I tried to sleep more I felt guilty for neglecting something else, it was a never ending cycle of guilt.

Gearing up I made my way out onto the ice running a few drills by myself before everyone else joined me. Practice started as normal, we did drills, Mike was an idiot and didn't realize his water bottle was unscrewed thus it resulted in him getting drenched as he went spray his face after removing his goalie helmet. It was until we went to get off the ice that I felt dizzy, and before I knew it, everything was black.

Slowly my eyes fluttered open, a harsh white light shining in my eyes, and a beeping harassing my ears. As the fuzziness dissipated I looked around the room, white walls, a chair next to the hospital bed, wait hospital? What the fuck? Why the hell was I in the hospital?

Slowly the door opened and Bella, my parents, and my sister walked inside. "Oh thank goodness, I was so afraid that something happened to you." Bella said worriedly as she rushed to my side.

"What the hell happened?" I asked groggily, running my non-IV hooked up hand through my hair.

"You collapsed at practice yesterday." Dad said as I looked between him and Bella.

"Yesterday?"

"Yes, you were just about finished with practice yesterday when you suddenly collapsed. They called 911 because you weren't waking up, you've been here all day." Dad said as I blinked a couple times.

"What's wrong with me? Why did I collapse?"

"I'm afraid that's my fault." Bella squeaked from next to Alice as mom comforted her with a 'it's not your fault honey'. "It's because of the extra stress from my pregnancy on top of everything else you have to keep up with." She said as I looked at her.

"It isn't your fault Bella."

"Yes it is!" she said, suddenly bursting into tears. "If I wasn't pregnant than you wouldn't have to deal with my crazy cravings, and getting up in the middle of the night. The doctor said that you need to keep your stress level down, and with me being pregnant and you running around I know it isn't likely." She said as mom rubbed small circles on her back.

"Esme why don't you take the girls to get some tea." Dad said as mom nodded, leading Bella and Alice into the hall as he sat in the chair next to the bed.

"What's really going on dad?" I asked him as he picked up my chart.

"Your blood pressure is through the roof. And if it doesn't come down on its own, they're going to have to put you on medication. I know you think you can handle everything, but it might be best if you stop something." He said and I knew he was implying hockey.

"No, no way in hell." I said as he looked at me sternly. "Dad, there is only a couple more months of the season, I'll be fine."

"You don't know that Edward. You have so much on your plate with classes, exams, homework, practice, games, and now Bella being pregnant, you can't handle everything Edward." He said I groaned.

"But I also can't just give up my responsibilities. I'm the team captain, I can't just leave, and I can't do anything about classes. Bella understands that things are hard, I'm sure she'll understand if I can't be around all the time. She knows that hockey and school is important."

"You better hope so, because whether things between the two of you work out or not, she and that baby inside of her are your family for the next eighteen years." He said as I nodded.

"I know, dad"

"I know you do. You're a good kid Edward, you always have been, and one screw up isn't going to change that. But you can't let your health deteriorate because you have to much on your plate."

Bella POV

February 8, 2014

After what happened to Edward just ten days prior I was almost scared to ask him for anything. I didn't want him to collapse again, for his blood pressure to spike. It was my fault, whether he and the Cullen's agreed or not. I was the one who was adding the extra stress in his life.

It was once again weird to be stepping foot back in the doctor's office, only this time Edward was with me. It was the first time since I found out I was pregnant that Edward would be joining me, and this time was special because we would be able to find out the sex of the baby.

Edward's leg was nervously bouncing up and down as we sat in the waiting room, his nervousness making me become on edge. "Bella you can come back now." Kate the nurse said as she led me back into the room where Jane usually did my ultrasound. "Jane should be back in a minute or so, if you just want to do what you usually do, we'll be set to go."

Edward looked at me as Kate left the room, causing me to laugh. "I have to un-button my pants and pull my shirt up so she can do the ultra sound and avoid getting the gel on my stomach." I explained as he nodded, taking the chair next to the make-shift bed, and grabbing hold of my hand.

"Bella it's nice to see you again!" Jane said as she walked in the room. "And you must be dad, I've been wondering when we'd see you in here." She said as she shook Edward's hand.

First taking the usual measurements she smiled, before getting down to what we really wanted to see. "Now are you interested in finding out what you're having, or am I going to have to keep my lips zipped?" Jane asked as Edward and I looked at each other with huge smiles on our faces. "I'm going to assume you want to know." She laughed, spraying the gel on my stomach.

Moving the wand around her brow furrowed, before she set the wand down and looked at the both of us. "If you'll wait right here I'm just going to go grab Dr. Denali." She said as I looked at Edward, who looked at Jane with a frightened expression on his face.

Jane walked out of the room, leaving the two of us alone. Neither of us said anything, we both knew that something was wrong, especially now that Jane had gone to grab my doctor. I hadn't seen Dr. Denali since my first appointment, and while Carmen was nice, I was hoping that I wouldn't have to see her again until just a few weeks before the birth to discuss a birthing plan.

"Bella" Carmen said as she walked into the room, Jane right behind her. "I'm just going to make sure everything is okay quickly, you need not worry." She said, putting more gel on my stomach, doing the same thing that Jane had just done.

Her expression was more grim than Jane's had been, and when she put down the wand, I knew that something was wrong. "Jane would you escort them to my office once Bella gets cleaned up?" she asked as Jane nodded.

Edward looked at me, biting his lip before he motioned to the door. "I'm, I'll just be outside." She said as I closed my eyes, leaning my head back against the bed, we both knew what happened.

"Jane, did I miscarry?" I asked quietly once the door shut fully.

"You should wait for Dr. Denali to talk to you." She said as I looked her right in the eyes, whisping out her name. "I'm so sorry Bella" she said as I let out a sob, my baby was gone, my baby that would never get to see the light of day.

I can honestly say that I don't remember the next hour. Once Edward and I finished our 'talk' with Carmen I was immediately admitted to the hospital. After being giving Pitocin, Edward left to go call his parents, leaving me to pull out my cell phone.

Typing in the only number I could think of I let in ring until finally someone picked up.

"Hey Bells?"

"Daddy, I need you." I cried into the phone, right now he was the one I wanted.

Charlie POV

February 8, 2014

Parking the car I walked into the arena saying hi to a couple of the boys before settling in my office. Pulling out a few stats sheets I barely got the opportunity to look at them before my cellphone rang.

Bella the phone flashed, causing me to smile. "Hey Bells" I said as I listen to my daughter choke out a sob.

"Daddy, I need you" was all she said before she started sobbing.

"Bella, honey what's wrong?" I asked hurriedly as she gasped for air.

"I miscarried, I miscarried the baby; they want me to deliver her naturally. I need you Edward is too torn up, and mom won't come if I ask her, please, I need you." She said as I grabbed my car keys.

"I'll be there as soon as I can sweetie, I'm on my way."

"Thank you" she said hanging up the phone as I set it down on the table, leaning against the wall, realizing that I was crying.

"Charlie, what happened?" Mark, our assistant coach asked, coming into my office as I choked out a sob.

"You're in charge tonight." I said as I wiped away my fallen tears and moved into the hall where most of the team was standing.

"What happened?" he asked me again as I gulped.

"I have to go to Boston, Bella miscarried." And I walked out the door.

Two and a half hours later I was walking through the door of my daughters hospital room, where a number of people were gathered. "Bella" I called as I heard her cry out in pain. "I'm here baby, I'm here," I said rushing over to her side as the boy moved out of the way.

She didn't say anything, she just cried into my arms as those around us backed out of the room.

"Everything is going to be okay." I said, rubbing soothing circles on her back as she sobbed into my shoulder.

"I don't understand what I did wrong. I did everything they told me to. I took my vitamins, I ate healthy, I didn't eat to much fatty foods, or drink, or smoke, or anything, I don't know what happened." She cried

"It wasn't your fault baby, sometimes these things just happen." I said as she continued to cry. "God has a plan for each and every one of us, including that little one in there."

I wasn't sure at what time everyone else had started to rejoin us. First the boy came in, baring a cup of ice chips which Bella took quietly, next his little sister, then Carlisle and Esme.

"Charlie" Carlisle said as we shook hands. "I'm sorry this couldn't be on a more joyous occasion." He said quietly as I looked at Bella who was refusing to make conversation.

"I know." I said quietly as I pulled my phone out of my pocket, there was someone I had to call. "If Bella asks, can you tell her I went to call my wife?" I asked as he nodded, and I stepped into the hall.

"Hello?"

"Renee, it's Charlie."

Renee POV

February 8, 2014

"Hello?" I answered to an unknown number.

"Renee, it's Charlie." Charlie, as in my ex-husband Charlie, what the hell?

"Charlie, why are you calling?" I asked confused as he let out a breath of air.

"Look Ren, I know things between us didn't end well, that I let my career get in-between our family, and I've been trying to make up for that, and I think I've been doing a pretty good job. You've been an amazing mother to Bella, and I know you aren't exactly happy with the predicament that she's found herself in, but right now she needs you. She called me sobbing earlier, and though she said she wanted me I know you're the one she really wants." He said, as I stayed quiet, "She miscarried Renee, and she's completely distraught, and right now, I think she needs her mother more than anything."

"I'm on my way"

Over the last couple months I had made a series of bad decisions. Starting with the way I acted toward my daughter when she had told me she was pregnant. I had fallen pregnant young, and I didn't want the same for my daughter, but it took me a long while to realize that she wasn't me. For a while now it was a matter of sheer pride keeping me from picking up my phone and calling my daughter, from apologizing, and telling her how sorry I was that I couldn't be there.

I hated that we would have to be re-united in such an ordeal, it was something that I would never wish on her, on anyone.

Running through the halls of the hospital I found my ex-husband outside her hospital room with a young man who could only be the babies father.

"You're just in time" Charlie said as I nodded. "The nurse just went to go get the doctor, she should be ready to deliver soon."

Pushing open the door a women I remembered to be Esme Cullen sat with a girl just a couple years younger than Bella, and my daughter, holding her hand as they cried together.

"Mom" Bella said as she looked up at me, causing me to nod.

"I'm so sorry it's taken me this long baby, I'm so sorry this is the reason I had to come to you. But I'm here now." I said as she nodded, tears falling down her cheeks.

Two and a half hours later Bella gave birth to a little girl. Though severely premature, she was beautiful, and after everyone got the opportunity to hold her, and say their goodbye's Bella's doctor wheeled her to the morgue. It was a terrible fate for Bella and Edward, naming a little girl they would never know. I just hoped they would be able to get through it all.
