AN: Word kept saying 'bursted' was spelled wrong and I was like wtf Word? I definitely spelled it right…well, I meant to say busted my bubble. :(

Anyway, to the reviewer who shall not be named, I don't think I'm a hate-able person. *shrugs* Everything will work out. And this pregnancy is not going to be some crazy one month pregnancy like in the book. Dare I say it, but that was just retarded. Oh and did I mention I hated Reneesme?

Chapter 17

BPOV

Edward's cold skin was doing wonders for my inflamed skin. The air seemed stale and dry, burning my throat. Besides the comfort of Edward, there was little relief that came to me. Something strange was happening to me, that much I knew. Carlisle was pretty clueless as to what was happening as well, which made me worry even more.

I saw Carlisle speaking, fast and under his breath. I know they were speaking in a level that only vampires could hear, yet I understood every word perfectly. And now Edward is saying that I'm pregnant. I'm horrified that he is correct, but I know it's the only thing that made sense.

"Oh God. That can't be possible. Vampires are supposed to be sterile, isn't that part of the whole being dead thing?" I smash my words together in a nervous frenzy. Edward stopped rubbing my arm and I realized I was being a bit insensitive.

"Sorry, I didn't mean that the way it sounded. It's just…this can't happen. I can't handle it." I whispered the last part. I was just getting over feeling scared and helpless, but with this, they just resurfaced stronger than ever.

"No need to apologize Bella. We will figure this out, albeit I don't know how, but we won't let anything happen to you." Carlisle promised me. I knew I could trust him and I knew that he would do whatever it takes for me but I'm not sure if there is a way out in this situation. I simply smile weakly and nod.

"I'm going to do some research and see if I can find anything." Carlisle walked out. Looking at Edward I wished he could read my mind. Alice was trying her best to comfort me, but really all I wanted was to be alone with Edward.

"Alice, would you mind giving Bella and I some time alone?" Edward asked. He was always good at reading me, and I him. It seemed almost like some lover's connection.

"Sure. And I'll keep looking and try to help Carlisle Bella." Alice said before leaving. When she left the room was filled with perfect quiet. Neither Edward or I said anything, and I wasn't sure what to say. What happened with Drake had gone unspoken of, but I felt like I should explain.

"Edward?"

"Yes love?" Edward said, sure of his feelings. I was hesitant to go forth but if I did, die, then I wanted Edward to know that my indiscretion didn't mean I loved him any less. As absurd as that sounds.

"I just wanted you to know that I never meant to hurt you by being with Drake. I know it's hard to believe and I broke your trust…" Edward cut me off abruptly.

"Bella…Bella. It's going to be okay. I can't say I like what happened, but I do understand why it happened and I'm glad it helped you feel that you deserve me. It's I who doesn't deserve you."

Edward craned his neck down and lightly kissed me. At least I could die knowing that I had Edward's love. Dying. I never gave it much thought. I was expecting it to happen when I was much older.

"What are you thinking Bella?"

"I'm thinking, it's just, well…I'm scared. I have always wondered what it would be like to be pregnant and to be a mother even…but I'm terrified at what this baby is and what it's doing to me. I'm not ready to leave you, not know and not ever. I know it sounds horrible, but I couldn't stand a constant reminder of what I went through." I ended in a sob. I thought my emotions were in check but that wasn't the case.

"I know you're afraid, I am too. I know I couldn't survive without you Bella. You should have the chance to forget this..this…tragic and atrocious event. You deserve that."

"I'm so tired. Stay with me?"

"Always Bella, now go to sleep love."

3rd POV

Months had passed and Bella was now 6 months pregnant. Carlisle had still not found a solution that worked. They tried to surgically remove it but the placenta was as strong as steel. Now Bella could not even walk, she was confined to the bed. Her body was rejecting any kind of food and it was through pure miracle that she didn't die.

Edward kept his promise and stayed with Bella always. Emmett or his other family had to force him to hunt. His body was in a constant state of frailty and his eyes were almost always black. Bella's condition proved to have a negative correlation to Edward's.

He was holding Bella's sleeping form now, in the worst condition yet. It was only Esme's pitiful pleas that got him to go hunting with the family. Everyone had been holding out on hunting to try and support Bella and Edward mostly, in hopes that Edward would go hunting with the rest of them.

"Don't worry love, I'll be back before you wake up again." Edward bent down to kiss Bella's forehead. Taking one last look at her, Edward walked to the driveway and the whole family left to hunt.

BPOV

When I woke up, Edward wasn't in the room. Listening to the rest of the house, as my hearing has vastly improved since this pregnancy, I don't hear any of the Cullens. Maybe Edward finally followed my wishes and hunted.

"Edward?" I call out just to be sure. I get no response. A sharp pain wreaks havoc on my body and I gasp in pain. Looking at the clock I realized that it is 6:40 in the evening. Hopefully someone will be back soon. It feels like everyone, me included, is simply waiting for my impending death. Carlisle still searches for something even though I wish he would just forget about it.

The front door bell rings. That's odd, no one ever comes here with the rare exception of a delivery truck. Either way, there's nothing I can do about it being immobile. The bell sounded again but this time I could smell a sweet lavender mixed with a woodsy scent. To say it was alluring was an understatement. My mouth was watering and the back of my throat began to itch.

As if acting on their own accord, my legs swung across the bed and touched the floor. My body was on autopilot when in all rights I should be weak and almost comatose. Pushing myself forward, I couldn't seem to get to the door soon enough.

I practically threw myself down the stairs. The bell rung for the last time and I finally got to it. This newfound strength was beyond puzzling to me. Opening the door I find a UPS delivery man with a big package on a pulley.

"Um. Hi, come on it." I smiled. My mouth began salivating and this man's presence was tantalizing. The guy walked in and pulled the package behind him.

"Hello Mrs., so where do you want it?" he asked. Lifting his hand through his hair, his neck vein was almost calling out to me. Why the hell am I having these thoughts?

"Just, just put it in the living room." I follow him to the living room. He bends down to unlatch the box and the itch in my throat is overwhelming. As soon as he leans up I rush him and sink my teeth into the flesh of his neck, piercing his jugular. He screams out in pain, and writhes backwards knocking me into the wall behind me. Momentarily knocking me off of him, I quickly regain my balance and run at him, slamming his head into the wall.

He slid down unconscious. Without a second thought I kneel down over him and bit him again, feeding off his blood. Sanity washes over me before I completely drain him and I crash to my knees across from his dead body in disgust.

Oh my God, what have I done?

((AN: Muahahaha! Now am I evil or what? Don't worry, all will be explained and yes Alice saw what happened. I have to say this. I am like completely addicted to True Blood and you must watch it. Well…if you're 18+ lol. It's a really good show, super intense. If you like vampires which you obviously do, you'll love True Blood!

Review please?))
