Pre-read by TeamAllTwilight.

PS: For those that don't know, I posted an outtake for this story. It's about Edward when he was little.

Those that guessed, got a little teaser. And please enable your PM so I can answer. I couldn't answer some reviews because of that.

Next day, I went back to my room to grab some clothes since Edward wanted to go out. Actually, it had been Bob's idea. I could tell we were going to have a snowball fight.

"Morning," I greeted Tanya.

"Hey. Happy Christmas," she whispered.

"Happy Christmas. Are you okay?"

"Not really. I have no idea what's wrong."

"Shouldn't you see a doctor?" As much as I didn't care about her, she was my roommate.

"The bathroom feels like miles away so the hospital is out of question."

I frowned. What the hell was wrong with her? "What hurts?" I asked as I started bundling up.

"My stomach and back."

"Maybe some tea or something?" I suggested.

"It's not working. I've tried everything. And well I've been constantly on the phone with my grandma," she told me.

I didn't want let her suffer so I said the only thing that came in my mind. "Look, I'm going outside now, but when I come back… Would you like Edward to see if he knows what's wrong? He's studying to be a doctor, after all."

She looked taken aback. I had never been this good to her, not like she had been with me.

"Well…uhhh…if he wants….I don't want-"

"Okay, see you in a few. Feel better," I said before I left the room.

"Finally!" Bob shouted when I stepped out of the building.

I rolled my eyes. "I talked with Tanya. She doesn't feel well."

"What's wrong with her?" Edward asked, working on making a snowball perfectly round.

"No idea. She says her stomach and back hurt. I told her that…" I bit my lip, eyeing him carefully. "Edward?"

He looked at me curiously.

"Would you look at her? Maybe you can tell what's wrong. She can't move."

"That's serious then. I don't know, love…"

"Please? For me."

"Okay." He nodded then smashed the snowball on my face.

I spat snow as I started chasing him. It took us about five minutes to realize Bob hadn't moved.

"What's up, dude?" Edward asked, kicking snow in his direction.

Bob was looking at me in concern. I had never seen him so serious. "Can we see if she's okay? Now?"

I dropped the snow from my hand as my mouth unhinged. Edward started chuckling.

"Don't tell me! Tanya? Really, Bob!"

"We've been….sort of on and off since last summer." He gulped and looked away. "She was the one that told me about the competition."

"It sounds like it's more than a fling," I muttered.

"Maybe?" he asked uncomfortably.

"Let's go. It's getting dark anyway. And who knows what can happen. Bella may crack her heaaaaa….OW! OW!" Edward shouted, shielding his head with his arms.

"Take it back, jerk!"

"Done. All taken back," he rushed out. "Just stop it."

"Good. Let's go to Tanya."

When we arrived in my room, Tanya was curled up on the bed. Bob went to her and it was weird to see him with a girl. I was too used to see him alone, with us, or just interacting with Edward. Never with a girl – especially, Tanya.

She turned to him and started crying. "It hurts so much."

While Edward went to her other side to ask her different things, I remembered a show I used to watch when I was home, with Mom. And I had watched it a few times here with Rose. I never thought it was truly possible.

All her symptoms pointed to that. She was pregnant. And it was that rare, special case when the pregnancy was hidden. But could I say it? What if I was wrong? And Bob was so happy… She was nine months. Fuck. What should I do?

"Bella, you're mumbling," Edward pointed out, giving me a weird look.

"I may sound totally dumb, but…there's a show on TLC about women that didn't know…" I gauged Tanya's expression and by the way her eyes widened – she knew what I was hinting at. "About women that had no idea they were pregnant," I finished.

"It was obvious if she was," Edward said, rolling his eyes.

"No, doctor!" I hissed. "Some rare cases are…" I took a deep breath and started rambling about one of the episodes. We grew quiet as I finished. Then Tanya yelled and clutched her stomach as the bed became wet around her.

I had been right. I grabbed my phone and called 911 as the boys tried to be helpful. I could tell Bob was ready to faint and Edward was helpless. Such a doctor. I rolled my eyes. As they helped her downstairs to wait for the ambulance, Tanya managed to say that she hadn't been with anyone else besides Bob. Apparently they had been together for longer than a few months. When Edward had been in the hospital, she had asked Bob about him and "somehow they kind of ended up in bed a few times."

They both went into the ambulance with her, talking with the EMTs. I stayed in front of the building watching the ambulance disappear. In no time, the people that were still at school, started talking, asking questions, guessing wrong things.

Bob had told me to announce his mother, and Edward had switched our phones so I could talk with Mrs. Gravel, then call him.

I went back to his room on shaky legs. What should I tell the poor woman? I scrolled through the contacts, finally finding Mrs. G.. My finger hovered above her name before pressing the touch screen softly then the green button and put it to my ear.

I felt like throwing up. Why did I have to be the one to give her such news? I wished Edward would have called her.

"Edward, hello honey," she answered softly.

I cleared my throat, swallowing the bile. "Hello, it's Bella."

"Oh, hey sweetie. Are the boys behaving?" she teased. "Are they giving you a hard time?"

"Umm Mrs. Gravel…I have some…not so good news," I stuttered. Fuck, this was difficult.

"Is Bob okay?" she asked, worried.

"Yeah. They're both okay. It's just…Damn it! I don't know how to say it," I mumbled, tugging at my hair.

"Bella? I'm coming back home."

"Bob has been with…this girl for some months," I started explaining.

"Really? He hasn't told me anything."

"Yeah, he hasn't told us either. We just found out."

"And what's wrong? Is this why you called me?"

"Not really," I admitted. I was stalling.

"Bella, what had he done?" she questioned. I was sure she knew the answer. "Is she pregnant?"

She made my life so easy. "They're at the hospital now. In the delivery room."

"What?" she shouted in my ear.

"No one knew-" The line went dead. Crap. I pressed the red button then scrolled to my name. I didn't find any Bella. How the hell had Edward had me in his phone? I read every name until I reached M.

My Love.

My heart swelled and tears spilled from my eyes. He was going to find out I didn't have a special name for him. He was just Edward.

I pressed call, feeling weird calling my own phone. It rang and rang and rang. I tried three times and I was about to give up when he answered.

"Hello?" he asked tentatively.

"Finally!" I groaned.

"Oh, shit! Bella, I didn't realize- I forgot you'll call. I'm so sorry. And I didn't realize it was your phone ringing. Always, Bon Jovi, really?"

I snorted. "I talked with Bob's mom, my love," I stressed the last words.

There was silence on the other end then a loud groan. "That's private. You shouldn't have known it."

"You tossed your phone at me."

"You win. So what did Mrs. G. say?"

"She hung up on me when I told her you were at the hospital…in the delivery room."

"Do you want to kill the poor woman? Is she coming?"

"Duh! I'm coming to the hospital too. I can't stay here," I told him.

"Okay, I'm waiting for you. Just give me a call when you get here so I can come get you. I have to go, it looks like I have to hold Bob's hand." I could tell he was rolling his eyes.

I searched for his keys and finally found them in his jeans that were on the floor. He was lucky he lived alone.

Driving to the hospital, I tried to imagine how Tanya felt, how Bob was feeling, how Mrs. G. was going to react. I didn't want to be around when she got her hands on her son. I'd be furious if he was mine. I parked in the visitors' side and rushed toward the entrance of the hospital, dialing my number.

"Are you here?" Edward whispered. Why was he whispering?

"Yeah. In the lobby."

"I'll come get you," he whispered again and hung up.

I didn't have to wait for more than five minutes. He was wearing scrubs over his regular clothes. He looked hot in the green pants.

"Hey," he greeted, kissing me.

"What happened?"

"She gave birth," he explained. "It's still weird. She didn't even look pregnant."

"They had to base the shows on real cases," I told him.

"Yeah." We stepped into the elevator. He pressed the fifth's floor button. "It's a girl."

"How are they? All of them?" I asked.

"Honestly, Bob is freaking out. I haven't seen him so white in my life. He threw up twice. As for Tanya…" He shrugged. "She's taking everything well."

"Really?" I was surprised to hear that.

"Yes, but the nurse told me it's normal. Her maternal instincts kicked in when they handed her the baby. Here we are," he announced me as we exited the elevator.

He squeezed my hands, leading the way to a saloon. Tanya was on top of the bed with something small and pink in her arms. I looked around for Bob.

"I think you should check on him," she told Edward.

"Again?" Edward groaned. "Be right back," he mumbled and went to the adjoined bathroom.

As soon as the bathroom door closed behind him – cue awkward silence. Tanya was watching me weird.

"How did you know?" she asked. "And…you can come closer," she added, softly.

I shuffled to her side. "Is…she okay?"

"Perfect. The doctor had one case like this. And they promised to take every test possible, but they're sure she's perfect already."

I looked at the small baby, and when she opened her little eyes, I fell in love. She was so cute. I sat next to Tanya, forgetting about our animosities. If I thought back, she hadn't been a bad roommate. I just didn't like her and her friends gossiping when I was trying to study, and especially that time she had been with Edward. If I only knew that I had been jealous back then.

"What are you naming her?" I wondered, wondering if it was a good idea to take the small hand between two of my fingers. I wasn't disinfected.

"No idea. I still can't wrap my head around this."

"Do you have someone to come…and-" I stopped talking when tears spilled from her eyes. "I'm sorry. They're upset?"

"Bella, my parents died a long time ago. My grandma was taking care of me…until well about an hour ago," she admitted. "I told Edward to call her…I was in too much pain to talk and Bob…well, he was saying hello to Mr. Toilet." She giggled. "Grandma said she didn't want to hear it and hung up."

"Maybe she'll come around."

"I don't know. I hope so. Have you talked to Bob's mom?"

The bathroom door opened, and Edward came out, more or less pushing Bob to the couch. He didn't look like the guy I knew.

He looked at me. "Does she hate me?" he mumbled.

"Who?"

"Mom."

"She was…upset," I said, choosing my words carefully.

"She hates me. Fuck. What the hell am I going to do? I don't know anything about babies. I don't have money."

Edward groaned and sat next to him, putting his hand on Bob's shoulder, whispering things to his friend. I could tell he was worried about it, too, but he didn't let it show. He was there for his friend.

Eventually, I moved on Bob's other side, trying to make him feel better, promising to help as I could. Edward nodded to everything I said, confirming my words.

As the minutes crawled by, between Bob and Tanya's stories we found out how they were together. After that first time when he had probably impregnated her, they kept meeting secretly. He admitted that the condom had broken, but they didn't think much of it. How stupid could they be?

"Yeah, and after the show thing…we sort of starting going out."

"And you thought you could keep this a secret?" Edward asked, skeptically.

"I was going to tell you, man. We're kinda hot-headed and fight a lot. I wasn't sure if it was working."

"Now, it has to work," I said seriously.

"Yeah, absolutely. It will work." He nodded, looking at Tanya with a huge smile.

I saw Edward nudging him, and that was all it took. Bob got up and approached his girls. I watched as he sat down and touched the baby's head then leaned to kiss Tanya.

"I'm not having sex again," Edward muttered to me.

I snorted, trying to mask it, but ended up laughing. He glared at me. "Sorry. It's just weird to hear you – the Edward Cullen – saying something like that."

He rolled his eyes. "I have proof what can happen even if you use a condom. So…no sex."

"Don't come to me when your balls turn blue."

He showed me his hand, smirking. "See this? It will be glued to my dick." I slapped him, making him chuckle. "No, in all seriousness, Bella. I don't want that. Not in the next five years."

I took his cheeks between my hands and kissed him. "It's just three percents that can turn into a baby."

"Yeah. I don't want to experience that three percent. I'm sure we'll be experts in babies, anyway." He nodded to Bob. "Being his best friends…well, we'll be there for him, right?"

"Of course!"

He grinned and kissed me again. "Thank God I can kiss you."

"You can do other things," I whispered, blushing.

"I said no," he insisted, quite scared. Things like this were a wake up call to many boys.

"I was thinking of oral…stuff."

"Oh, I didn't think of that. But no. I'm not going to be naked around you again."

"Jesus!" I exclaimed, falling back as I started laughing. "You're too funny, Cullen!"

The door opened and in came Mrs. Gravel. My laugh died instantly.

Bob stood up and looked at her apprehensively. "Outside," she hissed. They left the room and Edward jumped up, pressing his ear to the door. From his cringing face, I realize Bob was in deep shit.

About five minutes later, the door opened, smacking Edward in the head. A hand wrapped around his arm and tugged him out. Busted.

Almost an hour later, they did return. The boys were both red and keeping away from Cynthia. She went to Tanya who scooted away a little. Bob's mom took it like an invitation and sat there. After a few words between the two of them, they acted like old friends.

"Okay, officially, I'm not her son anymore," Bob grumbled, sitting next to me.

"I never said that, Bob," his mom shot back. "I just told you that you have to get a job to provide for them. I'm going to help."

"Really?" Tanya asked, surprised, tears forming in her eyes.

"Of course! I know how it is to be young and with child. I'm glad Bob is going to stay with you."

The rest of the holiday break was spent at Bob's house. The first time I saw him with the baby had been a real shock. It was one in the morning and I was thirsty so I went to the kitchen. Initially, I thought it was Tanya then I realized he was too tall to be Tanya. I hadn't meant to disturb him, but he jumped when he heard me.

"Hey," he whispered, grinning.

I opened my mouth, but nothing came out. I tried again and a small sound escaped me.

"It's weird," he said. "I can barely take care of myself…and now I have to take care of this small kid."

"Do you need help?" I finally asked.

He shifted a little. "Yeah. Can you hold her? I have to get a diaper."

I wanted to tell him that I'd get one, but I had no idea where they were. So I ended up with the baby. I was freaked out that I'd drop her. And when she started crying, I felt like crying too. I had no idea what to do and I felt like a clown, bouncing my arms…

When I saw a tall figure in the doorway, I sighed in relief. "Finally. Get her," I muttered over her crying. But as I approached, I saw that it was Edward and he was gaping at me.

So...is this a big shock?

For those that believed the baby was Edward's...I'm not THAT mean! Really.

Bella and Edward are going to be okay from now on, no more fights. Emmett will make up with Edward and everything is going to be okay. We're headed for the HEA, but it's a long way til the end.
