A/N

Sorry for doing this to you guys but I am emotionally tired. I don't know if this chapter is good because I am not in the best mood. Actually I am a crying mess. I am crying my eyes out two days and night in a row.

Anyway…

Enjoy!

Chapter 40

Strength

"You should rest," she said as we made our way towards the door. "Go home and come back tomorrow if you are better, okay sweetie?"

Indeed I was tired.

"Okay, Tess," I huffed and opened the door.

"You should tell Edward," Tess reminded me as we closed the bathroom door.

"Tell me what?"

No.

No, he is not.

No, he isn't here.

He can't!

"I will leave you alone," Now? Are you serious? Please don't leave Tess!

"So…" Edward started. I couldn't even look at him. He was there. Right in front of me.

I couldn't.

I didn't want to look at him.

I wasn't sure if he wanted me to look at him.

I don't have the strength to look at him.

"Come with me," he said and grabbed my arm.

"Edward, I…"

"Don't talk. Come with me," he said and pulled me with him.

God, give me strength!

"I need to talk about some things and I…"

"I want the piano," I said when he unlocked the door.

"What?" he asked confused.

"This piano. You bought it from my grandfather," I explained.

"No. I didn't buy anything from Anthony," he replied.

"I have..." No. Wrong. "I had one more grandfather," I corrected myself. "You bought it from an old man, didn't you?"

"Yes I did,"

"It was my mother's piano," I explained again. "I want it back," I stated.

"Let's sit and talk about it," he suggested and led me to the couch. I sat and then he sat next to me.

"How much do you want?" I asked him.

"I am not giving you the piano with-"

"I will give you money. Tell me how much," I interrupted him.

I was a stubborn bitch.

"I'm not letting you pay for the piano. I don't want money. Take it," He took a deep breath. "But, let me talk to you first. Please let me talk to you," he begged.

"To be honest, I need to talk to you too," I said.

I have to be strong. I have to!

"Ladies first," he said.

"No. You go first. I am nervous enough," I replied.

"Okay," he took a breath again. "Bella, I…" He looked down. "I don't have the strength to stay away from you anymore,"

Wh-what?

He wasn't….

He wasn't serious…

He can't

"Wait, wait, wait a minute!" I shouted.

"I don't think I can pretend anymore," he started. "I can't do this anymore," he said and smiled sadly.

"You can't do what?" My voice just started shaking! Great!

"I can't pretend I don't love you with all my human being. I never stopped loving you, Bella. You were always in my mind. When you stepped out of that door my heart was ripped apart. I want you Bella. I love you," he said and came closer.

"Don't you dare to kiss me!"

That was familiar.

"I-I am s-sorry," he said with wide eyes.

"You hurt me," I stated.

"I hurt you because I thought that was the best," he explained.

Don't cry! Don't cry!

"I don't know if you can forgive me, but I would appreciate a second chance," he said. "I didn't bring you here to beg for your forgiveness. I brought you here because I don't think I can survive one more minute without you,"

He wasn't serious…

This can't be…

"You don't love me," I whispered and then wiped some tears.

"I lied for your own good. I love you Bella," he whispered and left his hand to wipe my tears.

"Kiss me," I begged him.

He smiled.

He came closer and put his lips slowly on mine.

"I missed you," he mumbled against my lips.

I didn't say anything. I didn't want to ruin the moment.

I just closed my eyes.

I was feeling dizzy and he had only his lips on mine.

It felt like heaven.

It-

"I am pregnant,"

And then everything went black.

I will keep this short because I can't see the keyboard through the tears.

Love you all!
