Yeah, yeah. I know. I didn't update for like a month. But I've been busy!

Alrighty! Here's the new chapter!

Chapter 24: Unsure

As soon as we got home Bella went straight to our bedroom. I followed her but she shut herself in the bathroom connected to our room. I racked my knuckles on the door. "Bella? Honey, please don't be mad. Your mom is just surprised. She just doesn't want you to make a decision you might regret. She's looking out for you."

I heard sniffles on the other side of the door. That sound broke my heart even if I knew everything would set it off these days. "Bella, baby, please open the door." I begged.

There was a silence, except for her crying sounds. I heard the lock turn and the door slowly opened. She slowly stepped forward to me, looking up at me through her lashes.

"I'm sorry..." She said softly.

"Whatever for?" I said as I hugged her to my chest and wiped away the tears on her cheeks.

"For acting like a child and running off and crying." She sniffled into my chest. "I'm pathetic."

I rested my chin on her head and rubbed her back. "No you're not. I'm sure it's just your horomones. From what I've seen on TV about pregnancy, you're going to be crying a lot."

She laughed and looked up at me. "Yeah, Dr. Nichols said something about that."

I hugged her tighter. "How about we go lay in bed with a movie on the laptop?"

Before she could answer there was a loud pouding on the front door. There were lots of voices yelling. The loudest I recognized as Alice's.

"You two better open up this door right now or I'll have Emmett kick it down!" She threatened.

I sighed and pulled Bella closer to me. "We should probably open that door before they destroy our home."

She laughed softly and agreed.

As soon as the door opened Alice was hugging Bella. "You're pregnant?"

"Nope," Emmett said sarcastially. "They just said that for shits and giggles." He rolled his eyes before heading off to raid our kitchen.

Bella laughed. "Yes, I'm pregnant. I'm due in August." She said looking down at her stomach and placing loving caresses there.

"Well congratulations!" Jasper said as he hugged her. He released her and went into the kitchen with Emmett.

Rose was next. She hugged Bella carefully. I knew Rose didn't really like kids and didn't really like this announcement but she was putting on a smile. "Congrats." She pulled away.

"Okay, I have to plan the babyshower!" Alice squealed.

"Whoa, slow down, Al. I'm only eleven weeks along. People don't usually have babyshowers until like the eight, eight and a half month mark." Bella said. How was it she knew so much about babies. I'd have to ask her later.

Alice huffed. "Okay, fine. Are you going to find out the sex of the baby?" She was all giddy again.

Bella and I looked at each other. I answered. "We haven't really had time to talk about that. But we'll let you know." I said as I wrapped my arms around Bella's waist. I caressed her stomach with my thumbs.

Everyone finally left around 10pm after Emmett and Jasper, and surprisingly Bella, cleaned out our fridge of food. Bella had an excuse the other two didn't.

As I watched Bella undress and get into her pajamas, which was just one of my t-shirts, I thought about all the changes that were coming. I was going to be a dad. We were going to be parents. There would be a little baby here in less than a year. I was meantally freaking out. What if I screw the kid up and people wonder why they turned out so bad? It'd be my fault. What if I get so little sleep that I accidentally drop them? It'd be my fault that they have brain damage.

"Yoo-hoo." Bella said waving her hand in front of my face. "Where were you?" She asked with a beautiful smile on her lips. I leaned forward and kissed the corner of her mouth.

"I was just thinking about how scared out of my mind I am about being a dad." She pulled back slightly.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" She said slowly.

I chuckled. "Of course. I'm so excited to be a dad. But I'm just worried I'm going to do something wrong." I kissed her again.

"Edward, our baby is the luckiest kid in the world because they have you as a father." She blushed and looked down away from me. "I just hope I can do this."

"What do you mean? You're going to be a perfect mother. I'm sure of it." I kissed her forhead.

"I meant the pregnancy part. But I'm terrified of the parenting part, too."

"What about the pregnancy part?"

"What if I can't carry this baby? What if something happens and-" She shook her head. "I don't want something to happen and you be dissapointed with me."

I kissed her lips softly and with passion. "Bella, love. I could never be dissapointed with you. And I don't think anything's going to happen. We'll visit the doctor and do everything they say. There's not much more we can do."

She sighed. "I know." We just stared into each other's eyes for a while. Then Bella broke the silence. "So are we going to find out the sex of the baby? Sometimes you can tell at twelve weeks."

"What do you want to do?" I asked as I lowered my head to her stomach. I lifted her shirt and kissed all over her almost pudgy middle. She giggled.

"I don't want to know. But if you want to, the doctor can tell you." She ran her fingers through my hair. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the feeling.

"Thank you but I don't want to know either."

She sighed an happy sigh. "Okay. I love you."

I opened my eyes and looked into her deep chocolate brown ones. "I love you, too. More than you can possibly comprehend." I placed one more lingering kiss on her stomach before crawling back up the bed. I snuggled Bella closer to me and drifted off into a lovely sleep.

So I think the next chapter is doctor visit, Renee, Eddie's parents, and maybe just some fluff. Alright with you guys?

Don't forget to review! They keep the story going!
