Twilight doesn't belong to me.
Last Chapter
She sat down next to me, putting a hand on my shoulder, "I'm not afraid of you, I'm afraid of what you're going to say." she whispered, and I looked at her face. Her eyes were red, red after crying. I ran inside for a blanket and got back even before she had realized that I'd been gone. I wrapped it around her, I didn't want her to get a cold on top of being pregnant.
"Thanks." she said and leaned her head on my shoulder. "You're welcome Mrs. Cullen." I said, and smiled. "Are you sorry for not leaving me now?" she asked and buried her face deeper into my shoulder. "Do you think I am?" I asked, leaning away, trying to make her look at me.
"I dunno, that's why I'm asking you." she replied, she had both hands on my shoulder, playing with a lock of my hair. I turned to her to answer.
Chapter 19 Dark Blue Night
EPOV
When I answered her it sounded like I had been crying, "Yes and no. Yes, because if I left then you wouldn't be pregnant, but mostly no, because if I did you would probably be dead right now and I want to have this baby with you, I do, but I'm scared of losing you." my voice had turned into a whisper.
"I'm scared too Edward, but I want this. I want to have this baby with you, and we can be a family." she said and I kissed her forehead. "I'm sorry for making you cry today." I apologized.
ESPOV
I could hear Edward and Bella talk outside, and if I had the capability to I would have cried. Those two are made for each other, I thought to myself while I was straightening up the house.
Carlisle, Alice and Jasper were in the living room, talking about what might happen, and I knew Edward was listening as well.
"Carlisle, we need to get that thing out of her!" Alice said, and Jasper placed his hand on her shoulder making her relax. "Take it easy, Alice, I know you only want what's best for Bella, but this is what she wants." Jasper said, calming her down some.
"It's not up to me, Alice. It's up Edward and Bella, whether they want this baby or not. We'll just be there to support them no matter what they choose to do." as my husband spoke Edward and Bella walked into the room.
Rosalie hasn't seemed to take interest of what was going to happen. She and Emmett had gone hunting for two days, wanting to be alone. Rosalie only got depressed because of all the baby-talk since she no longer was able to have one herself.
"We'll wait and see what happens." Edward said and went into the kitchen to cook Bella dinner.
The rest of that day was slow, we got a few calls from Bella's friends and she talked to them, not telling them about the pregnancy. Yet, she did tell Angela little about the wedding night, but then Angela was going out to meet Ben and they said their Goodbye's.
Around 11:30, Bella said was tired and went to bed. She crawled under the covers and Edward laid next to her until she was in a deep sleep, then he went to hunt with Jasper.
I looked in on Bella from time to time. She tossed and turned in bed, luckily not in any pain, but I think she had nightmares. I didn't dare to wake her up, thinking that Edward might get mad.
I walked into the living room after checking on Bella for the fourth time, Carlisle stood up and greeted me with a short kiss on the lips.
"Carlisle?" I asked and sat down, "What is it?" his voice was calm, but showed his worry, I had picked up a few things after being with him for so long, I knew him better than Edward did, and he could read this thoughts. "Do you think Bella will be alright?" I asked and he wrapped his arms around me. "I can't tell, but we can hope and pray that she will be."
I nodded and looked out the window, glad Edward couldn't hear what we were saying. "Poor Edward and Bella, they have been through so much it their short relationship but are still hopeful for a future together. Hopefully everything will turn out fine in the end." I said, still staring out into the dark.
"We'll see tomorrow, maybe if she's well enough they can go to school, she had missed a lot of classes," Carlisle assured me, how could I ever live without him?
He was the nicest man on earth, so loving and caring.
About fifteen minutes later, I heard Edward and Jasper getting closer to the house, they would be home in about 5 minutes. Alice joined us in the living room then (after checking on Bella) to wait for Jasper.
When they walked in the door they came directly into the living room. "How is Bella?" Edward asked, not bothering saying 'Hello' first.
"I'm not sure, but last time I check it looked like she was having a nightmare." Alice said.

I didn't wait for another word from my family, I ran upstairs, and into my room to see Bella turning to her left as I came in.
She didn't wake up as I ran in vampire speed over to the bed. I knelt down in front of her and stroked a lock of her hair away from her beautiful face. She stopped turning restlessly and took a deep breath and opened her eyes.
"Hi," she whispered and reached out for me.
"Hello," I responded quietly and kissed her forehead, she reached out and took my hand in hers. "What time is it?" she asked as she sat up. "It's 2 am, just go back to sleep, love." my voice was still low and she closed her eyes,
"I'll be here when you wake up." I smiled as I said that and sat down next her to her. Wrapping an arm around her, then started humming her lullaby.
It was a long and quiet night, Bella didn't move more that night, but she did talk in her sleep. More than once she whispered that she loved me, and every time she did I kissed her hair.
Her head was on my shoulder and I had my arms wrapped, tight, around her small body.
I lay there inhaling her sweet scent and stroking her warm cheek. She suddenly reached out and kissed me, in her sleep. I kissed back, pressing my lips to hers for only a second before I pulled away.
I felt like I could have lied next to her forever, like the whole world could go to hell and I wouldn't notice. And the thought crossed my mind; Would it be better for Bella if I did leave? But I had seen in Alice's vision. That Bella would have killed herself because I wasn't there with her.
She moved under me, and I was automatically dragged out of my thoughts. She was laying so close to me that our legs were touching, so close that I could feel her belly next to mine. Wait, her belly? I looked down, and it was true, she had a small bump on her stomach.
I pulled a little away just enough to see her whole stomach and I put my hands over it. I could hear a faint sound of a heartbeat, not loud, I could only hear it if I held my breath. "Edward?" Bella asked with a sleepy voice, she was waking up.
"Yes, love?" I asked and came closer, not removing my hands from her belly. "What are you doing?" her voice was very sleepy, and it was only 5 am, I felt bad for waking her.
"Just loving you... Both of you." I answered and she sat up. She gently laid her hands on her belly, putting them over mine, and she held her breath. "There's something there." she whispered and looked into my eyes. "I sort of noticed that already." I said and smiled. She smiled back and then she hugged me.
"Go back to sleep love, we got school tomorrow." I smiled and pulled her away from me. She let go and rested her head on my shoulder and once again drifted into a deep sleep, with a smile on her face. I laid there until 07, and then gently woke Bella up.
She went to take a shower and I changed my clothes and walked downstairs to make her breakfast, I made her chicken salad, hoping she would like it.
I heard her finish her shower and came walking down stairs. When she sat down I came over to her with her food and I sat down next to her. "Does it taste good?" I asked after she had taken a few bites.
"Yes, its very good." she looked up from her food and smiled at me, I could do nothing but smile back.
In the car on the way to school, Bella was lost in her train of thought as we drove slowly to school, and I for once was concentrating on the road not wanting to endanger Bella or the baby. Rosalie and Emmett were back yet so Jasper and Alice were sitting in the back seat. I took Bella's hand and she looked up at me, "We're here, love." I smiled and pulled over, getting out of the car, and opened her door.
"Thank you." she said, smiling wildly. She took my hand and I helped her out of the car, Alice and Jasper were already standing next to us. Then the bell rang.
The first day went perfectly, Bella seemed to be perfectly healthy, of course people had been asking questions about why we hadn't been at school.
We had been going to school for two weeks, without any problems at all but on Tuesday when Bella and I were in Biology, while she was walking to our desk she fell to the floor holding her sides and then she started screaming.
I'm so sorry for the long wait for the update. School has just been so crazy lately, but my workload has been decreased some and I was able to get this finished. Don't worry the next update won't take nearly as long, I'm hoping to update again over the next week or so.
Don't forget to Review this chapter.
