DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT!
How does one process he is a father? Do you jump for joy? Do you become angry with the mother of your child for not tell you? No one knows for sure how one is supposed to react, but everyone knows how not to react. What ever you do; DO NOT FAINT!
I wish someone should have told me that before I did it.
I wake up to find my head pounding and back at my family's apartment. I tried to get up and groaned in pain. It feels like someone smashed a beer bottle on my head. The sound that came out of my lips alerted my family. They whipped their heads to face me. Immediately, Alice started to freak out and the rest of the family starting asking questions that I couldn't comprehend.
"One at a time!" I yelled. That wasn't the best idea to solve my pounding migraine. Everyone did become silent though. Alice handed me some Tylenol and I was grateful; the little pixie thought of everything. Rosalie decided she would go first.
"Edward what happened? I mean what did that whore say to you? She told you something kissed you on the cheek and left. Seconds later you fainted. Oh my god she drugged you didn't she? We should get a restraining order on her. I wouldn't believe she was capable of all of," she ranted. I was calling her name quietly the whole time she was talking but she was too busy ranting, to listen.
"Rose!" I yelled once again. It didn't hurt this time; the Tylenol was kicking in. All became still and quiet. They were all looking to me for an explanation. My mind battled with itself. Should I tell them? Well of course. But how do I tell them. I decided to come right out with it.
"I'm a father," I said. They hadn't moved an inch and I wondered if they heard me, but I was certain they did.
"Like – baby – you – father," Emmett stammered. I just nodded.
"Bella told you this?" Rosalie questioned. I nodded.
"I don't believe it. She is a whore and just wants to get with you. She most of slept with thousands of guys after you and got pregnant with one those. And just because we are rich she wants to put the baby on you. Please Edward, don't tell me you fell for that. The baby probably looks nothing like you," Rosalie reasoned. This infuriated me. Now was my chance to stand up for Bella.
"We didn't use protection Rosalie. We were too drunk to realize it. She didn't even know she had slept with me until the next morning. You didn't give her a chance to explain," I said, but Rose remained unfazed.
"If the baby is yours then, why didn't she come back to Forks to tell you? If she was the angel you thought she was, she would have realized you had a right to know if she was having your child," Rosalie was beyond furious. I could tell she was thinking that Bella brainwashed me with her innocent appearance. I was furious too because I couldn't ask her questions, so I remained silent.
I turned to Alice and I could tell she wanted so bad to believe me and that everything that Bella did in Forks wasn't a way to get to me, but Rosalie was making a point.
"Her outer appearance has changed also. She never used to wear the clothes she had on today. She is starting to show her real personality now," Rosalie said. She was trying to get everyone to agree with her, so I could just give up. It was so easy to read her. I could be a mind reader because people were so easy to read, except Bella. She was interesting and fascinating.
From Alice's face I could tell that she had reluctantly agreed with Rose. Jasper didn't know what to think. He and Bella weren't really close. Emmett had to agree with Rose, even though he had once accepted Bella as one of his little sisters. I didn't know what to think and now looking back at the situation, I wondered if Bella was trying to say she got pregnant. She said gift; not pregnancy. It was possible that I had jumped to the first conclusion.
I vowed that I would find out tomorrow at school.
Bella POV
After my confrontation with Edward, I hoped that he would get the meaning of my words. If he did he probably would have told his family. They wouldn't believe him. They thought I was a whore. The resemblance between Chloe and Edward were undeniably present. Sophia even found out from just one look.
When I got home and had Chloe in my arms, I didn't care. She took my worries away. One look at her and I am hooked. My mind was too busy following her every movements to even think about Edward. It was Chloe's time for my attention. Tomorrow I would be starting work and school. I had three classes in the morning, Lunch, and then I had to work.
I got up the next morning to find Sophia sleeping as well as Chloe. I got dressed in a gray tank top with a blue cardigan and skinny jeans. Today I would go comfy and I put on some gray Uggs and my black glasses. My hair was in a ponytail and my jewelry was on. On my way out the door, I grabbed my purse, textbooks, and a protein bar.
I already knew where my classes were so I made my way to my first one. On the tour, while ignoring Edward's glances I might add, I figured out that the premed classes where on the other side of the campus from where the students who major in law have classes. I smiled on the inside when I realized that fact. I wanted to avoid Edward as much as possible incase he didn't get what I said. I was on time and sat in the back of the class.
The professor was firm but nice. She told us she didn't take late homework, take home tests, or projects. And if you planned on not studying do not bother coming; you would fail anyway. She already gave us homework and it was group work. Two people each group was supposed to right a paper on criminal law and procedure. Also you had to name famous cases having to do with criminal law.
The professor already had us put into groups and was reading them off. My attention was caught when she said my name.
"Bella Swan and Rosalie Hale…" She said in a bored tone. My eyes went wide. Rosalie was in this class? Wasn't she a year ahead of me? Oh god. The professor finally dismissed us and I made my way over to Rosalie. She was wearing black and white printed tube top and skinny jeans. Her black heels made her look dangerous.
"Hi," I said in a low voice. She raised her eyebrows as if to say what? I needed to set up a time that would be easy for both of us.
"I wanted to know what time you wanted to meet up," I answered. She thought for a second and gave me an answer.
"How about around 6 at your place? I wouldn't want you to flirt with my brother at mine," She answered with a smirk. I flinched and her smirk grew wider. I nodded and handed over my address and walked to my next class.
Rosalie was coming to my house, while Sophia was in class. So I would be alone with Chloe while Rosalie was firing rude comment after rude comment. Oh lord.
