Chapter 7

The entire family decided that they were going go hunting but I had no need to go since I wasn't craving blood. While they were gone I went in to check on Jacob who was sound asleep, so I decided to work on Edward's car. Him, Bella, Alice and Jasper would be graduating next week and then they would have to pretend to be going to college. This time around Edward and Bella decided to actually attend the community college close to home; while Alice and Jasper will be going over to Europe again.

The last thing I had to do was get the car over to the local paint shop. As much as I would love to keep the car's original paint it would look real bad that way. I decided for it to be painted black with silver racing stripes. Edward would never really drive this car anyway. This mustang will be like a trophy to him. Ever since he saw the movie "Gone in 60 Seconds" he has talked about getting one. He loves for his cars to go fast but they also have to be inconspicuous and this car was obviously not that.

I got in the car and drove it over to Tom's Detailing Garage. He already knew how I wanted the car painted and I bribed him by paying with cash so he wouldn't go anywhere near Edward until after graduation. I gave Tom the keys and cash to guarantee that the car would be ready by the party on Friday night. I lied to Tom when he asked if I needed a ride home and I told him that Jacob was waiting at the dinner down the road.

Once far enough away from town I ran back to the house hoping no one had noticed I was gone. Surely Alice had already known I wasn't at home. When I got the house nobody seemed to miss me. Accept Edward who had missed listening to my thoughts. I walked into the house through the back door and went to the refrigerator. I pulled out the gallon of milk and drank nearly half of it straight out of the carton.

"So, is anyone going to tell me what is wrong with my daughter?" Bella looked directly at Edward because she knew as well as the rest of us that he could not deny her anything including the truth. When no one else was brave enough to tell her I stepped up, "Mom, Dad and Carlisle think I might be…pregnant. Nobody wanted to tell you because they thought you would freak out. With your track record on this type of stuff I can't really blame them either."

Bella began to sit down even though a chair was not under her. Alice kicked a chair under her obviously seeing her hitting the ground before hand. "Well, I can't say I blame them. But this is good news. I am very happy for you, but worried at the same time. And you knew all day long didn't you?" She glares at Edward with hatred in her eyes. "Yes, but we wanted to be sure before we told anyone else."

Emmett walks over towards me and says, "How bout a fight now little girl?" he give me a little shove with literally no effort behind it and it knocks me across the room and into the stove. Bella runs to my side and then cringes away immediately. I rub my forehead where I feel a stinging and look at my hand now soaked with my own blood. "What the hell Emmett!" Edward nearly knocked Emmett's arm out of socket punching. "Edward I swear I barely touched her."

"Dad, he's telling the truth I just feel so weak. It hit me after I went on a run while you guys went hunting. I thought maybe I needed to hunt so I caught myself a deer, but when I went to drink I threw up." Carlisle came down the stairs and started stitching my forehead that normally would have healed by now. "I think I can explain. When your mother was pregnant with you she craved blood that you required and she still needed food. However now that you are carrying a human child you require human nourishments on top of you needing blood for yourself."
