Author's Note- Hey guys! Sorry for the long delay. I have been so busy with school, I have exams next month so I am freaking out here. But I thought I should post a chapter while Winter Holidays.
The first part of the chapter is just Bella thinking about the past month. I didn't want to write a huge chapter so I did flashbacks. It may also seem kind of rushed because it is. Anyway. I hope you guys like it.

Teardrops On My Guitar
Chapter 28
Bella's POV
A month after Edward and I got married, Alice's wedding was held. Her wedding unlike mine was a big affair. There were over one thousand people attending. Since Alice was a big star of the fashion industry now, there were people from the media everywhere.
Her wedding pictures were worth millions. If it were me I would have been freaking out. I hate the attention but Alice was happy, she loved every second of it.
The wedding was amazing. Alice looked beautiful in her dress. It was a strapless off the shoulder dress, she had a tiara and gloves that went above her elbows. (On Profile) She looked like a princess out of a fairytale.
The bridesmaid dresses were a teal colour. They were beautiful, it went with her wedding. (On Profile)
Rosalie was her maid of honour and I was the bridesmaid.
Jasper was really nervous before the wedding. I was there to witness it. It was absolutely hilarious.
Flashback
"I am getting married." Jasper said.
That was the 1000th time he has said that in an hour. It was really pissing Edward off.
"Yes. Hale. You are getting married." Edward said.
"OH MY LORD! I AM GETTING MARRIED." He started freaking out, which was unusual. He was always calm.
"What if Alice doesn't want to marry me? What if she leaves me? What if she regrets it? Oh My Lord! She is going to leave me I just know it. What if I forget my vows, or if I forget to say 'I do'. What if I fall? What if Alice runs away with some Hollywood actor? Holy! There are a lot of them there! Orlando Bloom too!" He started yelling, he was totally freaked.
During his freak out Edward and I were rolling on the floor laughing. It wasn't very Jasper like situation.
"Guys! It's not funny! She's going to run off with Orlando Bloom and then they are going to skip off and live in a hobbit hole!" He said.
We laughed even harder. Alice's love for Orlando Bloom was not a secret. But that was just hilarious. A hobbit hole? Lord of the Rings wasn't real, and Orlando Bloom didn't live in a hobbit hole.
Edward pulled himself together and got up. He walked up to Jasper and slapped him.
"Calm Down Jasper." He said. Jasper sat down and started to breath heavily.
"Nothing is going to happen. Alice loves you. She spent years planning this wedding, she isn't going to leave you. How could you even think that? She loves you more than she loves shopping!" Edward explained.
"Your right." He laughed. "I am just nervous. How come you didn't have a cow before your wedding?" He asked Edward.
"Because I didn't think about that. Just think about Alice, and how you are getting married to the love of your life. And you'll be okay." He said.
Jasper finally calmed down.
"That was very sweet of you." I kissed my husband on the cheek.
"Thank you milady." He smirked.
Emmett, John and Charlie walked into the room.
"I think we should take our places now." Charlie said.
Jasper's face turned pale and he ran towards the washroom.
"What's with him?" Emmett asked.
We didn't get to reply, because all we heard was Jasper puking. I shook my head and made my way upstairs to Alice's room.
End Flashback
Everything went okay after the little crisis. Jasper forgot all his worries when Alice walked down the aisle towards him. They both remembered their vows. It was completely flawless.
The reception was even more extravagant then the wedding. Jasper paled when Orlando Bloom came to congratulate them on their wedding. It was hilarious.
Alice and Jasper went off to Rome for their honeymoon. We all know what they were up to.
A week after the wedding my book got published. I became an instant celebrity overnight. I didn't think my book was that good. Edward was the only one that was allowed to read it before it got published.
He said it was wonderful but I had a hard time believing it. But I guess he was right. It was named the Best book of the year. I even got interviewed on Oprah.
Flashback
"Today we have the hottest new author. This book sold million over night. Please welcome the author of 'Realize'. Mrs. Isabella Cullen.
That is my cue. God I am so nervous. I took a seat on the couch opposite Oprah Winfrey. God I hate attention. I tried to forget that there were millions of people watching me.
"Isabella Cullen, it's a pleasure to have you here." Oprah said hugging me.
"Just call me Bella." I laughed. "And thank you for having me."
"How does it feel to be named one of the best authors at such a young age?" Oprah asked.
"It's actually unbelievable. I am still kind of surprised. I never thought that 'Realize' would be such a big hit.' I said.
'Well I don't see how it couldn't be. It is such a romantic book. Most females are swooning over it. Is it true that this story was inspired by your life?" she asked.
"It was inspired by my life. Though my life is nowhere near as dramatic. I just took my life so far and wrote it down and added drama." I said.
"Wow. That is something. So you fell in love with your best friend and just couldn't admit it?" She asked.
"Yes. We had been best friends since we were little kids, like Mary and Anthony from the book. Though it didn't take us as long to admit out feelings to each other. We were in our junior year of high school when we finally admitted it to each other." I blushed.
The audience 'awed' while I blushed more.
"That is so cute. I heard that you got married last month."
"Yes I did. It was a very small ceremony." I said.
"Congratulations on your marriage." She said.
"Thank you."
"There is a rumour going around that you are going to record all the songs that are in the book. I wasn't aware that you had written them. They were so beautiful." She complimented.
"Yes, I did write all the songs in the book. And they are getting recorded. The album is coming out in a few months." I said.
"You wrote all these songs for your husband Edward, I presume." She winked.
"Yes most of them." I blushed.
"I was hoping you could sing the song that is on the first page. It goes with the title of the book." Oprah requested.
I blushed. I really didn't want to but I couldn't say no. I nodded. One of the crew members brought me a guitar. Here goes nothing.

I didn't mess up. I sighed. Everyone was clapping.
The interview went on for a while. There were a lot of questions. To my surprise Edward and Alice came onto the stage and talked as well. Overall it was an amazing experience.
End Flashback
I sighed thinking about the last month. Life was changing really fast. Rosalie wedding was coming up soon.
I broke out my trance when I started feeling nauseated. I jumped of the bed leaving a surprised Edward and ran towards the bathroom. I leant over the toilet and started throwing up.
Edward was right behind me holding my hair out of the way. This had been happening a lot lately. Every morning. Wait. I froze over the toilet for a second.
"What's wrong Bella?" Edward panicked.
I feel onto the floor. I was…pregnant. I had missed my period, how could I have forgotten. Oh My Lord! I was pregnant. The world faded from around me.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
My head was feeling light. I think I fainted.
"Bella!" Edward was panicking. "What's wrong with her? I should know this! I am a doctor for goodness sakes!"
"Edward." I mumbled.
"Bella. Are you okay?"
"Yes you idiot. I am okay." I laughed. I opened my eyes to see his frantic face.
"You scared the hell out of me." He said.
"Sorry." I mumbled.
"What happened?" He asked.
"I think you should sit down." I said patting then bed next to me. He had obviously carried me out of the bathroom.
He sat down and stared at me.
"You know how I have been throwing up lately?"
"Yeah?"
"In the morning?" I hinted.
"Yeah…" He still looked confused.
"God Edward! When do women throw up in the morning? Everyday?" I said.
"Um…" He was still confused. Then I could literally hear the gears turning in his head. "You think you are pregnant?" He asked.
"Yes." I nodded.
His face looked shocked for a second then a grin spread on his face. He picked me up and spun me around his arms.
"Edward! I am going to puke again." I yelled.
"Sorry." He said sheepishly as he put me down.
"You are pregnant!" He laughed happily.
"I am not sure yet. But I think I am." I said.
"We need to go to the doctor!" He said. He ran out of the room to get the phone while I laughed.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
I smiled steeping out of the hospital. I was right, I was pregnant. I was also one month along. That meant it was a honeymoon baby. I smiled at the thought.
"I am going to be a dad." Edward smiled his hands on my stomach.
He was so adorable. He was almost as giddy as Alice. It was kind of amusing.
I kissed him lips and he smiled even more. He led us to the Volvo and opened my door for me as always.
"I think we should wait until after Rose and Emmett's wedding to tell everyone." I said.
"Yeah. I think we should. I don't want to take away any attention from them." He agreed. Their wedding was in two days anyway.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Rosalie! Calm Down." Alice yelled at her while she fixed her hair.
Today was Rose's wedding and she was excited. Her dress was extravagant. It had thin straps and was really tight at the top then it flowed out. It was really big at the bottom but it was perfect for her. There were beige flowers on the bottom half, the same colour as the bridesmaid dresses. (Both On Profile)
I laughed at the two of them and decided to go check on the goof I called a brother.
He was sitting and playing Xbox like he wasn't worried. But I knew better.
"Hey Brother Bear. Nervous?" I asked, sitting between him and Edward.
"Nah." He tried to sound calm.
"Really?" I teased.
"Yup" He said.
"Okay. I love you Em." I said hugging him.
"Me too Bells. I mean who could resist this piece of hunk." He said pointing to himself. I rolled my eyes.
"Well. It's almost time for the wedding. You should go set up. I am going to go check on Rose." I said.
Emmett's face paled and he started sweating.
"One. Two. Three." Edward counted, as soon as he said three Emmett made a run for the bathroom. The stomping was followed by the sounds of him throwing up.
"Not again." I laughed. "Now you are the only one that didn't throw up right before the wedding."
"I know." Edward smiled as Emmett walked out of the bathroom.
"I think I' m ready." He gulped.
"Stupid Emmett. Getting married? Why am I doing this again? Rose is going to kill me." He mumbled to himself.
Rosalie was also a nervous wreck when I got upstairs. But we managed to calm her down.
The rest of the wedding went without a hitch. The chapel was beautiful and screamed Rosalie. The reception was held at Fairmont Olympic Hotel which was really close to the chapel.
Emmett and Rosalie were literally glowing the whole night. Though I knew that they were anxious to get out so they could have time to themselves.
They went home to change after the reception, they had a flight to catch. They were going to France for their honeymoon.
Edward, Alice, Jasper and I went to drop them off to the airport.
We laughed the whole way there. After checking in they got ready to leave.
"I am going to miss you guys." Rose cried.
"Your only going for a month." Alice laughed.
I started crying too, which was very unlike me. But the stupid pregnancy hormones made me very emotional.
"I am going to miss you too." I cried.
"What's wrong with the squirt?" Emmett asked Edward.
Edward just grinned and said nothing.
"We'll see you on a month. And I promise not to call you guys even if Prada has a 50% off sale." Alice promised. We all laughed.
After saying bye to them we went home. I was really tired. This pregnancy thing was kind of tiring and I wasn't even big yet. I felt Edward carrying me into the house. I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The next morning we decided to tell everyone though we thought we should wait till Emmett and Rose got back. But knowing Alice she would figure it out. I was kind of nervous about telling them.
We were all sitting at the dinner table. My parents, and Edward's parents were over at the house Edward and I had bought a month ago.
Edward squeezed my hand underneath the table.
"Bella and I have an announcement to make." He said. All our parents and Alice and Jasper looked at us.
"Um…" I said. "I am pregnant."
Edward squeezed my hand again. I looked up to see smiling parents and a giddy Alice.
"That is wonderful news." Esme and Renee said at the same time.
Everyone congratulated us.
"Might as well get out your grandpa slippers." Alice laughed. "You guys are getting old." She teased Carlisle and Charlie.
"Right Alice. We are going to be the coolest grandparents." Carlisle laughed.
"I assume you went to the doctor." He said going into doctor mode.
"Yes dad, we did." Edward said.
"I am one month along." I said.
Esme and Renee squealed and started talking like crazy. Alice joined them as they started talking about how our baby was going to be the best dressed baby in the world.
Then Carlisle and Charlie started discussing what our child's profession would be.
"Edward. They are planning out our baby's future already." I sighed.
He laughed.
"Don't worry love. Our baby is going to the most loved baby in the world. He's going to have the perfect family. A loving mother, father, six grandparents, and the funniest aunts and uncles."
"He?" I asked.
"I have a feeling it is going to be a boy." He smiled sheepishly.
"Me too." I sighed. I sat down on his lap while we watched our family go crazy over the news. I sighed and cuddled into his chest. Could life get any better?
