Chapter 5- Beautiful Innocence
Edward's POV
"Umm… okay." She handed me the crying baby.
"Shh…" I rocked him and he soon started to calm down. Such beautiful innocence.
"You got him to sleep!" Alice was carrying a toddler with blond hair and blue eyes.
"Umm… yeah, I guess."
"Hey Alice, I'm back!" Bella called.
"In here."
"Thank you so mu-" she froze, holding a small boy.
"Alice?" a tear streaked down her face.
"Bella?" I whispered.
"Alice, please take Damien."
"I got him Bella," the older girl next to her took him.
"Bella!" I called, going after her as soon as I put Conner in Alice's arms.
Bella's POV
"Thank you so mu-" Edward was standing next to Alice with Conner, asleep.
"Alice? A tear rolled down my cheek.
"Bella?" he asked, barely above a whisper.
"Alice, please take Damien." I had to get out.
"I got him Bella," Selene said..
I ran. "Bella!"
I stopped when I couldn't see because of the tears.
"Bella," he said, collapsing in front of me.
"I'm sorry Edward." I choked out. "So sorry."
"Bella, shh. I'm sorry. I… I-I don't know what to say honestly." He shook his head.
"Why Edward? Why do so many people want to kill you? Kill me, my family. Edward… I think Rennesme is your daughter."
"What do you mean? I've had sex with you-" His eyes widened. "It isn't possible."
"I don't think she's mine."
"What do you mean?"
"Wouldn't I remember being pregnant Edward? I yelled. "There's just too much resemblance between you."
"I need to go." I got up.
"Bella…"
"No!" I whispered and he slammed into a tree. "I can't… I'm sorry." I ran back.
"Dad?"
"Honey, why-"
No, I need an answer. Was I pregnant?"
"Honey, why do-"
"Answer me dad! Was. I. Pregnant?"
"You had a child, yes, but-"
"Was it a girl?"
"Yes, Rennesme."
"Oh god. Oh god." I ran my fingers through my hair.
"Who?"
"What Bells?"
"Who got me fucking pregnant?"
"It'll upset you…"
"Who!"
Edward Cullen."
I dropped to the ground. "Why don't I know?"
"You lost your memory of that month. We thought it should stay that way."
"Good bye dad." I hung up.
"Bella?" Alice asked. "What's wrong?"
"I had a baby."
"With who?"
"Edward." I wiped away my tears and dialed his number.
"Bella?"
"I'm sorry Edward but we- we need to stay away from each other."
"Bella what are you doing?" Alice yelled.
"It's all my fault. I'm sorry about everything. I can understand why you left."
"Bella I-"
"I love you, Edward. I'm sorry." I hung up.
"What the hell Bella are you nuts?!"
"He doesn't love me Alice. It's always been just pity on his part."
"Bella are you mad?!"
"Probably." I walked away from her, tending to Ryan, who just woke up. "Can you make some mac and cheese Alice?"
"Edward loves you too."
