Your Beautiful "baby" chapter 20
Bella (pov)
I set here in the hospital room again like I have done every day for the last three months. Time without Edward is like time has stopped with the exception of Jake and Jessica's good news that they are going to get married after they graduate in a few months.
I am also happy that all the sickness has passed and I am able to hold down food again. Rose and Bree have been suck a great support system for me and without them I would have never made it this far.
The doctor said that the baby is good and is growing just as it should be. I can't wait for Edward to wake up so he can be told about what has happened to Emmett, Ali, and Jacob and mostly about the baby.
Jake is so excited and he can't wait for the baby to get here. Abby is too and we don't have the heart to tell her it won't be her baby sister or brother but the baby that her mommy is carrying will be. No the baby is having doesn't belong to Emmett. She is just so happy to have to babies on the way.
Ali and Jasper are planning on coming home to live after they graduate next week. I have talked to her almost every day and she asks me about Edward and we talk about everything. We have grown so much closer since Emmett isn't standing in the way.
I do feel bad that they have all lost their father but in the end he really wasn't much of a father and was doing nothing but hurting the ones he claim to love the most.
All the legal papers have been filled out and for the fact that Emmett had his lawyer put a hold on his copy of the divorce paper because he claimed he had a change of heart. He even had his will rewritten a few days before he had been released from jail.
Beside the funds set aside for all his children and for Edward, yes Edward for being there for me when Emmett was too blinded to be, his words not mine. He left everything to me with one stipulation that I donate 1000.00 a month to charity for mistreated wives and children.
The weather is changing and Christmas has come and gone, six long months has passed and my Edward is still asleep. He sure is beautiful when he sleeps but I do wish he would wake up. I pat my stomach because the baby must know that I'm wishing his father would wake up.
Ok so I don't know the sex if the baby but I feel like it is a boy as wonderful as his father. Ali and Jasper are home and Jacob is set to get married in three weeks and I can't wait.
It has been almost been a year since Edward climbed into the shower with me making me take a long hard look at my life. It was the best shower I have ever taken still to this day. I smile as I look down at my sleeping beauty and place a small kiss on his forehead as I head out for the night.
The ghosts of the past are hard to overcome and with all my free alone time my guilt is eating me alive. I have taken to writing again to help me through it and I hold on to the hope that my Edward will wake up someday soon.
I cry a lot, my need for him is over whelming and the need to share our baby, his baby with him keeps my emotions in high gear. Ali tries to help and I am thankful for her to be back in my life. Jasper has been the best influence on her life.
I fall asleep almost every night crying to myself, I spend lots of time with my best friend Weston also. He has been my rock and has help with the wedding and has even went to my doctor appoints with me for the baby.
At one point the doctor even thought he has the father and we both laughed about that. Wes and I have grown close but there will never be anybody to take my Edwards place. And I'm sure Wes knows that, he has never pushed past friendship and I am grateful.

Winter is coming and it is getting cold again. The baby is due any day. My Beautiful Edward is still sound asleep in his own little world far from me far from our baby.
Jacob and Jessica's wedding was beautiful and they are off to college. Jake calls me every day to check on me and the baby. He hates that he is away but they have to live their lives and grow and me holding him here because I need him would have been wrong.
Ali and Jasper planning on moving back to Paris as she was offered a job in the high world of fashion. Jasper is a writer like me and he can do that anywhere. Ali and Jasper have the world at their feet ready for the taking and I am proud of her and of him.
Rose has had her baby and Abby has a new baby brother which she couldn't be happier about. Justin Fredrick Hale blond hair and blue eyes, he looks just like his mother. He is small because he was almost a month early but healthy none the less.
As for me my book is finished and I sent it off to have it looked at by my publisher so if it is good enough to have published. I tell all of this to Edward, I tell him everything in hopes he will move flitch just do anything.
His heart rate picks up today when I lean in and kiss him; I am hoping this is a good sign. I call is Brother Ian and my other best friend Bree to come down. I feel off today and I don't think I should be here alone.
I texted Weston and ask him to bring me some McDonalds and he says he will when his shift is over. I set in the chair next to Edward and read to him from my favorite book withering heights and I feel is fingers twitch but when I look up at him I think it was all in my mind.
I lay my head down on his arm and I fall into a deep sleep. I don't know why but I feel so tired. I am dreaming and Emmett is here. It is the first time I have dreamed about him in months. I saw his face every day after he died when I closed my eyes.
He is telling me that I had made the right choice and that Edward was my true soul mate and that our baby was meant to be from the start. He puts his hands on my stomach and tells me that it's time to wake and do right by my baby, and that he loves the name that I had chosen for it.
He was about to say it when the pain ripped through me and I woke up and a cold sweat. I grabbed Edwards hand hard and told him I needed him to wake up now our baby is coming tonight that it is coming now.
The nurse runs in when she hears my cries and goes and gets a wheel chair for me. It must have been time for Weston to be off because he comes running and drops the bag of food to get to me. I grab his hand and hold on tight.
I don't what was taking Bree and Ian so long but right now all I could think was how happy I was that I had Wes here for me when my Edward couldn't be. And as weird as it sounds I think I could somehow feel Em here in sprit as well.
The baby is coming fast and they hardy had time to get me into my room and prepped before we hear the sounds of a baby crying, my baby crying. Weston is smiling and they ask if he wants to cut the umbilical cord.
I think he looks at me and ask me if I cared, "Bella, sweetheart, Bella "I keep fading in and out of the light. I can see Emmett again and he is standing next to Edward my Edward asking to me to choose.
I try to scream I had already made that choice and he knew I had .I wanted Edward and only Edward. I open my eyes, "Bella look at her she is beautiful, Bella your daughter looks just like you except for her eyes they are all Edward."
I close my eyes again and Emmett is telling me to choose its now Bella its time choose. "No Emmett I want Edward" I yell and I open my eyes to see Weston looking at me.
"Bella, sweetheart, Emmett is gone remember? Edward is on the third floor like he has been for the last three months. "Sir she is losing a lot of blood, you are the only person she has here and she said you was family should we do everything we can to stop the bleeding?"
"Shit Bella, wake up please I need you here, she needs you here Hell Edward needs you here, please " 'Do it save her at all cost" I hear him say as I open my eyes again and see my daughter.
I whisper words to him and he smiles and tells me that her name is perfect and fits her so much, he tries to put her by my face but I fade to black again and all I see is Emmett, Bella chose now you or Edward.
That choice has already been made, I didn't have to think, I didn't have to breath I knew I would give my life for his and in this moment I knew what he was asking me it was to choose , and my last words was my favorite word …. Edward.
Bree (pov)
"Edward opened his eyes, Ian I've gotta to go tell Bella, where could she have gone off to anyway?"
I call to the nurse sitting on her big fat ass and ask her if she knows anything about Edward and of she has seen Bella any time tonight. She smacks her gum and looks up at me from her magazine and says the fat one?
Really, bitch tonight is a good night Edward just woke up and if it wasn't I would have hit the bitch hard in her eye. "No dim wit she isn't fat she is very pregnant." I snapped at her. "Oh they took her to have the baby then. "
"What the hell? And no one saw fit to tell us, we are her family you know." I ran back down to Edwards's room to tell Ian about Bella and the baby. Edward is wide awake now and he is talking he is asking for water and for Bella. He also wants to know about the baby.
"How did you know?" I asked. "I heard her tell me everyday how much she loves him and she can't wait to have my baby our baby and that she needed me here so badly and I fought everyday to get back to her and back to our son."
"Where is she Bree? I just saw her before I woke up, I told her I loved her and to choose herself. "I was lost at what he was talking about and then he said something about Emmett and I looked at Ian like should we tell him Emmett is dead.
"Edward, Emmett is dead honey and Bella is having the baby." "Take me there now please I need to be there with her when our son is born."
I call the nurse thank God it is another one beside dipshit out there, she smiles at us and grabs a wheel chair for Edward. We head up to the labor floor and we see Weston on the floor outside a room holding a Bella's copy of withering heights to his chest and he was crying.
"Is the baby alright?" I ask and he looks up. "Yes, "he whispers she is great beautiful just like her mother." Where is Bella and did you say I have a daughter?" Edward asked him
"Yes a daughter, Bella named her Ailey Nevaeh Cullen. Ailey means light and Nevaeh means blessing from heaven and she said that Edward and this baby are her light and her blessing and promise of a new beginning." Weston said.
"Where is the baby and why are you out here and what is wrong?" I asked him bending over hugging him. I know how he feels about Bella even if he doesn't say it, it is written all over his face. He is Bella best friend and she loves him to just in a different way. I also know he knows that Edward is Bella's everything beside her children and he is just happy being in her life that he won't ever tell her or anyone how much he loves her.
"Bella," says with a new batch of tears and he looks up to Edward and loses it. "I told them to do anything to save her, she was bleeding so badly and when she flat lined they took Ailey from me and pushed me out the door"
"Bella Edward screamed, No she chose me."

Thanks for reading sorry for the place it ended, ok maybe a little anyway (evil smile) sorry, you will have to wait and see what happens next. I will work real hard at getting the next and last chapter done this week. The babies name Ailey is pronounced A-leigh and it does mean light .because Edward and the baby are Bella's light. So I thought the name was fitting. Till then Zandie (smiles)
