A few minutes after Carlisle and Edward left Charlie came back in the room. He took a long look at me before sitting down. I didn't say anything. I just stared at my hands. I wanted so bad to have Edwards mind reading ability. He told me Charlie wasn't mad. I really hoped he wasn't just trying to make me feel better. I prepared myself for the worst just in case. Charlie took a deep breath. I knew he was getting ready.

"Will kid, when did you find out?"

"Maybe 2 weeks ago I think."

"Why didn't you tell me as soon as you found out?"

"I was scared. I didn't know what to think or what to do."

"Fair enough. Do you know what you want to do now?"

"I…I think so."

"Bells I don't think an abortion is a good option. I've never believed in that and I know that you might want to do it but…"

"Dad I don't want to do anything like that."

"Oh. Good."

"I'm having the baby. I'm still working things out for the after part."

"Well you have a good 9 months to think about it."

"Yeah."

Silence fell around us. Charlie stared at the floor. This was actually going much better than I had imagined it. We weren't screaming at each other or fighting at all.

"What does Edward want?"

"Uh…"He had caught me off guard.

"He…he wants to keep the baby. He's really excited about this."

"But you're not."

"I don't know how to feel. I mean its easy for him to be excited and happy. He doesn't have to carry it or give birth or recover or take care of it or…"

"Bells, your right for the most part. He would have to help take care of it. There isn't anything he can do as far as the carrying part, that's true. I'll damned if I let him get away with not helping. I know you're not innocent. You both did this so you both will deal with it. I know Dr. Cullen will agree."

"Yeah dad I know. I just don't know if I can handle this. I don't think I'd be a very good mom.""I think you would do alright."

A few minutes passed.

"I think I'm going to go to bed."

"Alright, we can talk about this more tomorrow."

He stood up with me. An awkward moment passed. Then he hugged me.

"Bells I'm here for you, I know I haven't been before but I am now. I didn't think I would have to worry about being a grandpa yet but I'd be happy to be one if that's what you decide.""Thanks dad."

I shut the door behind me and went straight to the window. I pulled the curtains back and looked outside. There was nothing out of place. I had honestly been hoping that Edward would be standing there. I went back to my bed and sat down. I couldn't sleep yet. The light was off. I left it that way. A tap on my window made me look up. Edward was standing outside. I jumped up and opened the window. He smiled and climbed through. I didn't say anything, I just hugged him. He hugged me back. It just seemed like what we both needed. I suddenly felt horrible about all the time I had spent avoiding him. It was wrong. He didn't do anything wrong.

"Edward I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have stayed away from you. I was just so confused about how I felt."

"Bella its fine."

"No its not fine. I love you Edward. I'm stupid."

"You have your moments love but you aren't stupid. You are amazing. I'm the stupid one. I shouldn't have been on you so much about all this. Its only been 2 weeks."

I hugged him closer.

"We are stupid then.""If that's the best I can get."

"I don't know what I want Edward."

"I know."

Things went back to a somewhat norm. I held hands with Edward between classes like I used to. Alice was excited to have me back at the lunch table. She never said anything about the baby. I was glad she didn't. My appointment with Carlisle was only days away. Edward offered to go with me but I really just wanted to go on my own. I had no desire to sit with him while his father was wrist deep in my lower region. It just didn't seem like something he needed to be there for. He sighed but agreed to sit in the waiting room. He would probably just watch through Carlisle's mind. Great.

Wednesday came quick. Edward walked me to my room before heading back downstairs. I paced the small space while I waited for Carlisle. A nurse came in and told me to removed my pants and underwear and lay down on the table. I felt so awkward. I was alone in a tiny room with nothing but a sweater on and a paper blanket covering my legs. It was only a few minutes but it felt like forever. When Carlisle finally came in I was so nervous. He smiled warmly.

"Okay Bella, relax. Its not going to be that bad."

I tried to calm myself but it wasn't easy.

"We are going to do things a little bit different than normal. I'm not sure yet how your pregnancy will go because of the vampire half of this baby. I'm not going to give the hospital all of the baby's real information. There are some things I don't think I could explain. The heartbeat being one of those things."

"Okay.""I'm going to take blood from you. I'll take it home and check it first before submitting it to the hospital. There is a chance that the vampire blood from your child will cause temporary changes in your own."

"Nothing noticeable right?"

"I doubt it."

"Good."

"Don't worry Bella, everything will be fine."

"I hope so."

"Okay I'm going to go ahead and take a look."He gestured towards the paper covering me.

"I just have to take a few samples and have a look at your cervix. That's it."

"Okay."I waited while he set out a few things. He had what looked like a giant q-tip. I was so nervous. He pulled out some rests for me to put my feet on. He had me scoot all the way to the end of the table. God this was so embarrassing.

"Alright Bella, just relax."

The second I felt him touch me I tensed up. This hand was freezing. It wasn't really anything new to me but it still shocked me. I closed my eyes and tried not to think about it. The whole thing only took a few minutes.

"There you go Bella. All done."

I sat up and took a deep breath.

"Your cervix looks great. I don't think there will be anything out of the ordinary from these samples."

"That's good right?"

"Of course. I'm going to go grab your file. You can get dressed. Would you like me to send Edward up?"

"Uh, yeah. I'm sure its killing him to be out there."

He laughed.

"He is impatient. 9 months is going to be much to long for him."

I waited for him to shut the door before I jumped down from the table and grabbed my clothes. I had just pulled my pants up when Edward came in. He smiled at me and sat in one of the chairs against the wall.

"I couldn't be in here for that?"

"Hey it was bad enough that it was your father."

"Bella I have seen you completely naked. That is was got us into this in the first place."

"Yes I know. Its not the same thing though."

"What, are you afraid that seeing you with your pants off would make me have to have you this very second?"

"No, that is not what I was thinking at all."

He laughed.

"It might have."

Before I could say anything he was up and pinning me against the wall. His mouth was on mine. It had been so long since we had kissed. I grabbed his collar and pulled him closer. I really didn't realize how much I missed that. He grabbed my leg and hitched it up against his waist. My breathing went erratic and my heart was pounding. My skin felt like it was on fire. His mouth traveled along my jaw and down my neck. It sent shivers down my spine.

"Carlisle said we can go. I think we should head back out to the car."

"I agree." We pulled away from each other. I smoothed out my clothes and hair. Edward took a few deep breaths then held out his hand. I took it and we left. The walk to the car was an interesting one. Edward wrapped his arm around my waist and the contact was making me crazy. My body wanted to be closer to his but I fought it. We were in public after all. Edward held the door open for me. Once I was in he casually walked around to his side. He pushed his seat forward and climbed into the back. I laughed and he reached and pulled me onto his lap. I wasn't really worried about people seeing us since the windows were so tinted. As soon as I was on his lap his mouth attacked mine. His tongue played against my lips. I parted them and took in the sweet taste of his breath. My tongue found his and it was cool and refreshing. He grinded his hips against me suddenly and my mouth snapped shut. I was glad that I didn't bite his tongue off. I certainly bit mine. I could taste the blood in my mouth. Edward didn't realize what had happened. His mouth came at mine again. I fought through the pain and opened my mouth. I remembered too late that that wasn't probably wasn't the best idea. As soon as his tongue touched mine he froze. He even stopped breathing. I watched the pupils in his golden eyes dilate. I tried to quickly swallow the blood but it made me cough. A single drip of blood rolled out of my mouth and down my chin. Edwards eyes followed it though he never moved. I reached up and wiped the drop away with my finger. I went to wipe it on my pants but he grabbed my wrist.

"Edward…"

He brought my finger to his lips and licked the blood away. I was scared. There was no lying. He closed his eyes. Then he kissed me. His tongue forced my mouth open. He was after whatever blood was still there. I was afraid he would take it too far until he slid my off his lap and laid my on the seat next to him. He snapped the button open on my jeans and pulled them off. This had taken a direction that I could go along with. Edward almost seemed frantic. He ripped my panties away and began kissing me again. I spread my legs on either side of him to give me easier access. I never saw him undo his pants but suddenly he was there. He plunged into me and buried his face in my neck. I arched up and threw my head back. He wrapped his arms around me and began a steady rhythm. My body moved with him. He never moved his head. I could feel his breath against my shoulder. He thrust one final time and I called out. I couldn't help it. He finally lifted his head and looked down at me. His pupils were back to normal. I tried to slow my breathing but it wasn't doing much good. He smiled and kissed me gently.

"Sorry."

"For what?""Taking you like that, so suddenly."

"Don't apologize, I'm not complaining."

"I couldn't help it, when I tasted your blood it just…I don't know, I had to have you."

"You didn't want to hurt me?"

"Of course that crossed my mind but my desire for you was stronger."

That was certainly an ego boost on my end. My body was more desirable than my blood. What a nice change.

"We wont be able to be like this in a few months."

I gestured to his body on top of mine.

"There are plenty of other positions."

I laughed.

"You wont want to have sex with me then."

"Why not?"

"I'll be all huge and awful looking."

"Bella I don't care what you look like. You could loose all your hair and be horribly burned and I would still want to have sex with you."

I believed him.

He kissed me again. It seemed to mean more. I kissed him back.
