DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT!
It has been a month since Edward and I have been slowly dating. Chloe is getting better day by day and it feels like I have my free- spirited child back. The morning sickness had gotten the best of me and Edward is there everyday pulling my hair back as I empty my stomach. We had an ultrasound already done to make sure the baby is healthy. Edward was a like a little kid at the zoo. His eyes were wide open in fascination. It was very amusing to see. His family already knows about the second pregnancy and is already ecstatic. Even though Rosalie seems apprehensive and is always biting her lip.
College was becoming harder and harder by the second. I spend more time studying than actually spending time with Chloe. My job has several events that I need to go to. Some are very formal, but others are more cocktail parties. For some reason Edward goes to the same events. I haven't asked him about it.
My mother and father still don't know about this pregnancy and I am reluctant to tell them. I know they were giving and supportive during my pregnancy with Chloe, but they might think I was just so irresponsible. Plus the paparazzi are going crazy with my father and mother. My father has been involved with this big case that involves one of the most controversial celebrities in history.
The presses are not allowed any type of entry into the courtroom and therefore are pestering my father for some information. My mom and Phil seem to become aggravated with the press as well. Since my mom comes and visit so much, they would see Phil by himself. And now started a rumor of them being separated. I know pretty soon I will be having some unwelcomed visitors also. When they find out, I am dating one of the infamous Cullens, I will be done for. No, scratch that, when they find out I have a baby and I am pregnant, I will be done for. Lovely.
Edward and I take the relationship slow. An occasional kiss and cuddle is really the most physical we get. He still sleeps in the guest room, but I am considering of giving him an upgrade. He has been well behaved and is barely drinking.
Today was one of the formal events. It was called Autism Speaks Formal Ball. My dad had a case that involved a child who was autistic and became very attached to this charity. They are throwing a ball for the people who supported this charity. Edward and his family were going as well because his father donates. Sophia was watching Chloe tonight and I was very grateful. For some reason I thought she was in a foul mood and when I asked her about it, she shrugged it off.
I was wearing a midnight blue maxi dress and Jimmy Choo shoes. My make up consisted of blue eye shadow and silver eye liner; the rest was natural. I put on a ribbon bracelet and I put on diamond stud earrings. My hair was in an elegant bun and my bangs were out. I walked out.
Edward was standing in the living room in a suit. His suit was all black and his shirt was white. The black tie put the whole thing together. His hair was in its usual messy untamable self. He looked breathtaking.
"You look amazing," he complimented. His eyes were looking me up and down, but I didn't feel uncomfortable.
"You don't look bad yourself," I said, my voice teasing. He smiled his signature crooked smile and got up to give me a kiss. I ignored Sophia "awing" in the background. I said goodbye to Sophia and Chloe and picked up my clutch and coat. We walked our way to the small limo. The driver knew where to go. The event was being held at the Palm House. It was very elegant and looked to be made of glass. It was simple yet perfect for this event.
We arrived and proceeded to the entrance. Our coats were taken and we were lead to the main hall and took our seats. We were the first ones there, but not for long. Alice walked towards us. She was wearing a long purple gown with purple peep toe pumps. Her jewelry was gold as well as her make up and her hair was in short curls. Jasper was wearing an all black suit and a black shirt and tie. They looked like supermodels.
Rosalie and Emmett weren't very far behind them. I can see other people casting glances of envy towards Rose. I couldn't blame them. Her black, one shoulder gown fit her perfectly. She as well had peep toe pumps, but hers were black. Emmett was in a black suit with a white shirt and black, bow tie.
"Hello, soon to be parents of two," Alice said. I just rolled my eyes and Edward beamed. I was dreading becoming like a hippo again, but Edward was all for it. Rosalie just looked annoyed, but it wasn't directed towards us.
"Rose, are you okay?" I asked, concerned. Everyone was in their own conversations now, so it was only me and her talking. She shook her head no. The annoyed expression was gone and a sad one was replaced.
"I need to tell you something," she whispered. I nodded and turned toward everyone else.
"Rose and I are going to do something real quick," I told them. They all nodded. I didn't say bathroom because Alice would surely come and I think Rose didn't want her right now. We both got up and headed towards the powder room. No one was there, so we were good.
"I-I'm pregnant," she whispered, her eyes filling with tears. My eyes were as wide as saucers.
"What?!" I whispered- screamed.
"I know, I was surprised to when I took like about four tests. I know pregnancy tests are not 100 percent effective, but four tests can't be wrong. And right now I am just freaking out. How am I supposed to tell Emmett? Would he not want me? And Emmett worked so hard to come to college here and he might think this baby would distract him from his dreams," Rosalie ranted. Her hands were flying up in the air and her eyes were wide with panic.
"Okay, first we need to calm down."- We took a deep breath-"Okay how long since you have known?" I asked.
"It has been two weeks," Rosalie said. Oh okay, two wee- What?! Two weeks?!
"And you didn't tell Emmett?" She shook her head no.
"I was waiting for the right time." That to me was a cliché answer.
"There is no right time to tell your boyfriend that you're pregnant. You just have to be brave and tell him. I mean I really don't know had to handle that situation because I didn't tell Edward that I was pregnant for either of the pregnancies. But you're a brave person and trust me Emmett might be shocked but he will be happy. He is not going to leave you."
She took my advice, as if her life depended on it, but I could tell she was still hesitant.
"Should I tell him now?" She asked.
"No, no, no. Wait until you get home. I would recommend leaving early."
She nodded in understanding and we made our way back to the table. Edward looked confused to why I was with Rose so long, but I just shrugged at him. And thankfully he didn't pry. The rest of the night was spent in laughter and everyone else was glancing at Rose and me. Rosalie and Emmett left rather early and the rest of us weren't far behind them. I just everything would work out for Rose and Emmett.
