A.N.: Hey, I've had a lot going on, and this is chapter five, I'm sorry its taking me so long to update, hopefully that will change soon. Enjoy! –Anna
"So, Edward," I asked sweetly, "why are we all going to La Push?"
"Because Jake asked us to," he replied robotically.
"Uh-huh, so we're just going to La Push because Jake asked?"
"Yes."
(Car Ride)
"Edward," I cooed, "please tell me why we're going to La Push."
"Because Jake asked."
"I meant the real reason."
"Because Jake asked," he replied again.
"Fine," I huffed, giving up.
We got out of the car and walked up Jake's driveway, suddenly, something looked familiar, and a repressed memory came to mind: My birthday, last September, there were hundreds of pinks candles lining the walkway. The candles looked the same as before, and the streamers looked extra crumpled, like this wasn't their first use. My heart picked up, Edward looked down at me in concern.
"Bella, are you okay?" Edward asked, his brow furrowed.
"Yeah, fine, why?"
"No reason." We walked through the newly put up gate, and light erupted around us.
"Surprise!" Chorused eight voices. I, being Bella, fainted.
I woke up to Edward looking down at me, lines looking permanently etched into his beautiful face.
"What happened?" I asked groggily.
"You fainted." He said, sounding both relieved and tortured.
"Oh. So, why are we in La Push?" I asked slyly.
"Surprise Engagement party…"
"Which you knew about?" I clarified for myself.
"Yes."
"And dragged me to anyway?"
"Yes."
"Right. Just checking." Jacob walked over.
"Hey Bells, you awake?"
"No, I'm really dead. Thanks for asking." I muttered.
"Whatever. So I guess you don't like the party?" He looked upset. Just my luck Alice walked over, I pretended not to see her.
"No, I do, well, I will, I just haven't had a chance to enjoy it yet. Speaking of enjoyment, didn't you have a date tonight or something?" I love subject changes.
"No. I lied. And don't try to change the subject!" Dammit. Foiled again.
"Sorry." I looked down at my shoes.
"Bella?" asked a new voice, "Edward? Can I speak with you two for a moment?" before looking up my brain registered Carlisle's voice.
"Of course," Edward replied, "but only if you stop singing the Spice Girls in your head! Geesh!"
Carlisle chuckled, "in here, if you don't mind," he said, gesturing to Billy and Jake's kitchen.
"Carlisle? What's the matter?" I asked, becoming a bit worried.
"Nothing at all Bella, in fact something I believe is truly amazing." He smiled a perfect smile, and he looked back and forth between Edward and myself. "I have found a way that Bella might be able to get pregnant!"
"Oh. My. God!" I shrieked, "Really?"
"Yes, shall I proceed?"
"Yes!" Edward and I said at the same time.
"First," Carlisle began, "do you both want to have children?"
"I do," I said quietly, I looked at Edward from under my bangs.
"Of course I do too," he replied to my look with an encouraging smile, and then his smiled turned crooked, and I thought I might melt. "I can't believe we've never discussed this before."
"We never thought it was a possibility." I smiled back.
Carlisle cleared his throat. "Second, it's dangerous, and it might not work, but I believe that it will." He analyzed our expressions before continuing. " I believe that if the two of you, oh wait, one more thing, permission to be a bit vulgar and to pry into your lives?"
"Granted," Edward replied. What is this, the military? I thought to myself.
"Right then, if you and Bella have sex while you take blood from her, it should fill you with enough human blood to produce other human liquids, and it should give her enough venom to withstand the power of the activities." He looked at us both again. I burst into tears.
"Bella, sweetheart, we don't have to." Edward said soothingly, but I could hear the sacrifice in his voice.
"Bella, I didn't mean to upset you, I'm so sorry, I didn't think…" I cut them both off when I stopped and placed my hand up and signaled silence. My voice was a little shaky when I began to speak, but it got clearer, as I continued.
"Neither of you has upset me in any way. I am extremely happy, these were tears of joy, and a lump in my throat because I will never know how to thank you enough." I hugged them both, and said "I'm going outside to thank everyone, and I would appreciate it if we could keep this between us for a little while." I walked outside to talk to the people I was closest to, and Rosalie, who still hated me.
A.N.: I hope you liked it! Please review!
