Chapter 13

'Edward?' I whispered.

Nothing.

'Edward please' I sobbed.

Still, nothing.

'Edward, fuck sake, answer me!' I snapped, wiping angrily at my tears.

'I...can't...' he muttered quietly on the other end.

'Can't what?'

'How...how did this...' he mumbled.

I'd just told him.

Told him I was pregnant.

It had taken me nearly ten minutes to finally tell him what was wrong, and for the past seven minutes I'd just listened to him breathing heavily.

'Are you sure?' he whispered.

'Pretty sure' I sighed.

'Well maybe...' he started.

'Edward' I shook my head.

Obviously I hadn't been to the doctors...but I refused to let that little bit of hope peep its fucking annoying little head out, because I knew...it was very unlikely that two tests were wrong.

'I did three tests...one was negative...but two were positive...' I told him.

'Well...that could mean...there's some hope right?' he asked.

'I don't know Edward...I really, just don't fucking know' I sighed.

'So...you...you need to go to the doctors right?'

'Yeah...I guess I'll book an appointment as soon as I can...Alice will come with me so...'

'No' he interrupted.

'I'm not going on my own Edward!' I argued.

'I'm not fucking saying that you are!' He snapped before he paused and took a breath. 'I'm...I'll err...come with you'

'Really?'

'Yeah...I'll er...I'll catch the next train...' I could practically see him close his eyes and run a hand through his hair. 'I'll be there as soon as I can' he promised.

'Thanks Edward' I smiled and wiped away a tear that had rolled down onto my lip.

'Yeah...' he said before the line went dead.

I set the phone gently on the side table as a few more tears escaped and dropped onto my hand.

I couldn't help feeling worried.

Worried about how he sounded on the phone.

He sounded, shut off...closed off, from me. Like in the beginning. When he...he hated me.

'Hey Bella?' Alice called gently, as she poked her head round the door.

'Hey' I smiled gently.

'Did you talk to him?' she asked, taking a seat next to me on the edge of my bed.

'Yeah...he's...erm coming over' I nodded.

'See...I told you he'd do the right thing' she smiled, patting me gently on the arm.

'He...he sounded wrong Alice...I'm scared...' I looked up at her, more tears pricking the back of my eyes at the thought of losing Edward.

'Wrong?' she frowned as she wrapped an arm around my shoulder.

'Like...like, like the last thing he wanted to do was come here. Like he'd rather run the other fucking way and never look back' I sobbed.

'But he didn't Bella! Which means he wants to do the right thing' she encouraged.

I shrugged. 'I guess'.

'I know!' she squeezed me reassuringly. 'Now...I booked you an appointment for half 1 this afternoon...Edward will be here by then right?'

'I don't know...I guess so...I don't know if he's catching the train or driving...' I mumbled. Edward had recently got his Volvo shipped to him from his dad, which made getting here a bit easier.

'Well as far as I know the trains run every half an hour...which means the next one he can get is...' she looked at her watch. '...the ten thirty one...plenty of time though he'll probably drive' she gave me a quick thumbs up before jumping up and grabbing a cardigan from my wardrobe. 'Crap I'm so late'

She pushed her arms through quickly before giving me a hug.

'Where are you going?' I asked, pulling my knees against my chest ad leaning my chin on them.

'Class...I would stay babe, and I feel really shitty about leaving you right now...but we've got an exam today and I really need to take...'

'Its fine Alice, you go...I'm okay...Edward will be here soon anyway' I told her...not completely sure I wanted to be alone with my thoughts right now, but knowing I couldn't tell her that.

'Okay...I'll come back after my exam okay...I'll be back before you go to the doctors I promise!' she kissed my cheek and flew out the door.

I stared at the door, long after she had gone...trying to concentrate on anything but the thoughts running through my head.

I needed to not think about how shitty my conversation with Edward went, how everything in my life was fucking up so I decided to clean.

I plugged my iPod into the dock and turned it up as loud as my eardrums could take before raiding the cupboard under the sink and pulling out all of the cleaning products we owned.

By half twelve I'd cleaned the entire flat top to bottom.

I'd even cleaned the fucking toilet...something I've never done in my life.

I was scrubbing a spot on the kitchen floor as though my life depended on it, when three loud knocks permeated the sound of the Katy Perry song that was blasting from my iPod.

I paused, as butterflies flooded my stomach and my mouth went dry.

I should not be this worried to see my boyfriend!

I stood, stopping to look in the mirror on the way to the door. I quickly wiped my damp forehead on my t-shirt and pushed a bit of hair that had fallen loose from the bun I had tied on top of my head behind my ear.

I took a deep breath and opened the door, where Edward stood.

He had both hands shoved in his pockets and was looking at the floor awkwardly.

Shit.

'Hi' I mumbled, willing him to look up. To look me in the eyes and tell me it would be okay.

'Hi' he replied, walking past me into the apartment.

I sighed and closed the door before turning to face him.

He had his back to me, his head still pointed towards the floor, shoulders hunched.

'Erm...Alice booked an appointment for half one' I told him.

'Oh...good'

'Edward?' I whispered, taking a step towards him.

Suddenly the door burst open, stopping me in my tracks. I turned to see Alice, pulling someone behind her.

'Great your still here' she smiled as she pulled Jasper into view.

'Jasper?' I frowned.

'Hey Bell' he smiled. 'Hope you don't mind me coming too, I just haven't seen Alice in a while so when Edward said he was coming...I kinda tagged along...'

'No, it's fine' I nodded, appreciating I wasn't the only one with relationship problems right now.

'We better go' Edward mumbled suddenly. Turning and walking straight past me, Alice and Jasper and out the door.

I looked at Alice. My bottom lip wobbled as I tried not to fucking cry.

'He's just in shock Bella' Jasper said, trying to reassure.

Alice nodded in agreement as she handed me my coat and pulled me into a hug.

'Good luck'

'I'm gonna fucking need it' I sighed.

'Whatever happens, we're here okay' she promised, which should have made me feel better but instead it just made me think that she believed Edward wouldn't be.

'I'll...see you later...' I forced a smile as I slipped my converse on and slipped out the door.

I wandered down the stairs, through the lobby and out the front doors scanning the area for Edward.

I didn't know whether or not he'd come in the car or train, so when I saw the silver Volvo pull up in front of me my question was answered.

I climbed into the passenger seat, barely closing the door before he sped off down the street.

'Do you even know where you're going?' I snapped as he took a corner quickly, shoving my against the door.

'Alice gave me directions' he shrugged, never taking his eyes off the road.

He hadn't looked at me since he'd arrived and quite frankly he was pissing me the fuck off.

I huffed dramatically and looked out the window.

Ten minutes later we pulled up outside the doctor's clinic.

I got out as soon as he stopped and slammed the door behind me.

'I'll park' he told me through the window, but I ignored him and stomped off.

Though, my bravado was all gone when I stepped through the glass doors and approached the reception.

'Hi, can I help?' a middle aged woman sitting at the desk looked over top of her glasses and smiled.

'Erm...I have an appointment' I told her, leaning awkwardly against the counter.

'Can I take your name please?' she asked.

'Bella Swan' I mumbled, biting on my nail.

'Ah yes, okay...please take a seat' she smiled pointing behind me towards a large waiting area.

I nodded in thanks and sat down opposite a lady who had a little boy on her lap. The child rubbed at his ear before groaning and smacking his hand against it.

'Hey now' his mother soothed, grabbing his hand and kissing it, before tickling him and making him giggle.

She smiled at me and I suddenly wished I was a child again, and all my problems could be forgotten as simply as that.

Edward slouched in a few minutes later and slumped down next to me, still avoiding eye contact.

'Bella Swan?' someone called.

I looked up and saw the receptionist standing with a clipboard in her hand.

'Yeah' I answered making Edward jump. I stood and walked towards her, Edward following closely behind.

'If you just want to make your way through the double doors, down the corridor, Dr Saunders is third on the left' she told us.

'Thank you' I smiled and Edward grunted.

I rolled my eyes at him and followed the directions.

I knocked on the third door on the left and heard a 'come in' from the other side.

I wrapped a shaking hand around the door handle and turned it slowly.

I stepped through into the brightly lit office and smiled at the small woman sat behind the desk.

She stood as we entered and reached across the desk to stick her hand out to me.

'Hi, it's Bella, right?'

'Yeah' I nodded taking her hand and shaking it. 'This is Edward' I said, motioning behind me.

'Hi Edward' she smiled, sticking her hand out to him too.

He shook it and mumbled a hello.

'Take a seat please' she offered, sitting down herself.

I sat down and Edward took the seat next to me.

'So, how can I help you today?' she asked, shuffling some papers.

'Erm...well...I...err...I think I might be pregnant' I stuttered.

'Ahhh okay, right' she smiled, getting up and turning her back to us, rifling through a drawer behind her.

'If you just want to use the bathroom to the left of you...' she nodded towards the door on my left as she handed me a small pot.

'Erm...okay' I nodded, getting up and cringing at the loud noise my chair made against the floor in the quiet room.

I stepped into the small cubicle and did what I needed to do.

I emerged a few moments later pee pot in hand.

Edward was sitting with his arms and legs crossed, staring out the window and Dr Saunders sat behind her desk filling in some papers.

'Ah Bella' she smiled as she took the pot from my outstretched hand. 'I'll be right back' she walked round the desk and out the door swiftly.

I sat back in my seat as an awkward silence engulfed the room.

I bit my nails nervously as the clock ticked loudly on the wall above us.

The doctor returned a few moments later. My palms started to sweat as she walked round the desk. My breathing sped up as she sat down. And my heart raced as she looked over the paper she had in her hand.

'Well Bella' she looked up and my breath hitched. 'You are indeed pregnant' she smiled.

I noticed Edward visibly tense from the corner of my eye as the words echoed round the room.

'You're sure?' he asked.

'Positive' she nodded looking to me.

My eyes were filled with tears as I nodded, and stammered a thank you.

She told me I was 4 weeks gone and gave me leaflets about pregnancy.

She also booked me in for a 12 week scan.

All the while Edward sat there as if he'd just been told he was dying.

'Well good luck you two, and congratulations' Dr Saunders smiled as she shook my hand and then Edwards as we stood at the door.

'Erm...thanks for all your help' I mumbled as I gave a half-assed wave before stepping out into the hallway.

We walked back to the car in silence and I sobbed the whole way home.

When we stepped back into the apartment Alice and Jasper were nowhere to be seen.

I walked straight to my room, not expecting Edward to follow, but he did.

He closed the door behind him and tugged a hand through his hair.

'What are we gonna do?' I cried, sitting on the edge of my bed.

He just shrugged.

That was it.

'For Christ sake Edward!' I shouted, making him jump. 'Look at me!' I screamed, storming up to him and grabbing his face.

He didn't.

'Say something!' I yelled in his face.

'What? What do you want me to say Bella?' he snapped back.

'I don't know! Anything!' I let go of his face and turned my back on him. 'For fuck sake, tell me!'

'Tell you what?' he growled.

'Tell me it's going to be okay! Tell me that your here, just fucking tell me...' I sobbed.

He didn't say anything.

'You think I'm not shitting myself? You think I'm not in shock?' I screamed, turning to face him again. 'You don't think I need my boyfriend to reassure me? You don't think he actually needs to fucking speak and stop acting so fucking distant when I need him so close?' I broke down, crying hard.

'I need you Edward...I need you so fucking bad and...and you're not here!'

'I'm right here!' he yelled, not understanding what I meant.

'Show me...please...' I begged. 'Just hold me, please...tell me it's going to be okay...tell me you love me...tell me you're here...please just...help'

'Tell me you're not going to leave...' I whispered.

Suddenly his arms were round me and he was breathing deeply into my hair as I cried into his shoulder.

'I'm here Bella' he sighed. 'I'm...shit...I'm sorry okay...I'm just...shit...this is just so...' he stammered.

'I know' I nodded against him.

'I'm not leaving Bella' he whispered grabbing my face in his hands. 'I'm not fucking going anywhere...I may be a prick, but I'm not leaving you...I'll never...' he shook his head as he looked at me for the first time since he'd arrived.

'Promise' I asked.

'I fucking promise you...I love you' he stared deep into my eyes as he said it.

'You won't leave me?'

'Never!' he whispered fiercely. 'This is complicated shit...I know that...but I swear to you Bella...I'm not going anywhere...I can't...I just can't'

He shook his head before crashing his lips to mine.

He kissed me hard, his fingers in my hair, pulling me closer.

It was urgent, but it wasn't sexual. It was full of need but it wasn't about sex, it was about love.

Eventually he pulled away.

Pecking my lips twice more, before kissing my forehead and tucking my head under his chin.

An hour later we were lying on my bed.

I lay with my head on his chest, playing with the fingers of his left hand, which were rested on his stomach.

'Why wouldn't you look at me all day?' I asked quietly.

'I don't know...I didn't want to...to see...the worry on your face, how fucking scared you were...because, I'd...I'd have lost it Bella'

He pulled me tighter against him.

'What are we gonna do?' I whispered as I moved my head so I could see his face.

He shook his head.

'I don't know...'

'Edward...I don't think I...I don't...I can't...you know...get rid...'

'I know Bella...I don't think I'd want that either' he said, placing a hand on my stomach gently.

I placed mine over top of his and smiled a small smile.

'We're doing this?' I asked as I looked at our hands.

'I guess so' he nodded, squeezing my hand.

He leaned down and kissed my lips once. Twice before leaning back and sighing.

'Hey...' he said suddenly. 'We've had some practice, remember' he smiled.

'The doll!' I squeaked, having completely forgotten about that.

He nodded.

I turned over and leaned on my elbows facing him.

'It's not gonna be easy'

'I know baby' he sighed, moving a piece of hair off my face and tucking it behind my ear.

'We're gonna argue...a lot' I told him.

He raised his eyebrows and smirked a little.

'We're gonna have to tell our parents'

His smirk disappeared.

'I'm gonna get fat'

The smirk reappeared.

'We're gonna be parents...Edward' I whispered.

'Yeah, but Bella...you know what else were gonna be...the most important thing?'

'What?' I frowned.

'We're gonna be okay'.

Awww!

So she's deffo pregnant!

I'm sure that'll cause some drama! :P
