More Surprises Than a Little Bit

Edward POV

I reached over to pull my wife next to me and she wasn't there. I sit up in the bed and look around our bedroom. Then I heard her groans coming from the bathroom. I pulled myself out of bed and ran my fingers through my hair. I walked to the bathroom and slowly opened the door and walked inside.

"Isabella how long have you been in here?"

"Not long just since about six, so fifteen minutes."

"Cheri it's a quarter after seven."

I tell her and she groans leaning over the toilet again. I grabbed a rag and run it under warm water and walk over to her.

"Don't look at me…"

She groaned as she leaned over the toilet and vomited up last night's dinner. I held her hair and rubbed her back.

"Isabella you don't sound good you should stay home today."

I tell her kneeling down next to her and she shakes her head. "No, I can't not go to Hannah's funeral" She says then she begins to vomit some more. It had already been a week since the shooting, and Isabella and I were supposed to be getting ready for yet another funeral, and every morning for the last week she's vomited every day.

We attended each and every one of them and today would be a little more difficult than the others because it was Hannah's funeral. She had died a few nights after the shooting from some complications from the heart surgery. Isabella kept telling me it wasn't my fault but I couldn't help but blame myself even after Hannah's own parents told me they didn't blame me.

"Cheri you've been vomiting most of the morning."

I tell her and she shakes her head again. "No I can go; it's just something I ate." She tells me leaning back off the balls of her feet. I use the warm wet rag I had and wiped at her mouth.

"God you are probably completely turned off by me now…"

She says and I laugh placing a kiss on her forehead. "I could never not be attracted to you chéri." I assure her and she looks up at me like I've lost my mind.

"Really? Even though I was just hurling in the toilet?"

"It wasn't your sexist pose, but yes love I still think you are beautiful."

"You're so full of shit, help me up."

She says and I laugh taking her hand. "Do you feel better?" I ask her and she nods her head as she walks over to the sink. She brushes her teeth then washes her face.

"Are you just going to watch me?"

"Isabella what if you are…"

"I'm not Edward and I would really rather not have this conversation again please."

She says obviously already knowing I was about to ask about her being pregnant. I didn't want to argue with her again about it. When we argued the other night, she took a test just to shut me up and it came back negative. I tried telling her that the box said it gave better results in the morning but she didn't want to hear it and said that test was all the disappointment she could take.

"Are you sure you feel better?"

I ask and she walks over to me and places her hands on my chest. "Stop worrying I'm fine alright. Now we need to get dressed so we can go." She says and I cup her face in my hand and run my thumb over her bottom lip.

"If you start to feel worse…"

"…I will tell you. Promise."

She replies and I lower my head and place a soft kiss on her lips. I turn her lose and we head back into our bedroom to get dressed. I dress in a black suit with a white crisp shirt and place the tie around my neck. I look over at her as she slides into a slim black dress and I admire the way it hugs her frame. She slowly walks over to me with a smile on her face.

"Baby can you zip me please?"

Isabella asked standing in front of me and as always I first placed a kiss on her neck then zipped up her dress. She turned around and began to tie my tie for me. I learned not to bother doing it myself because my wife apparently enjoyed tying it for me.

"This is the last funeral, the hardest one but the last one."

She tells me and I nod my head, "You know Angela and Ben agreed to have the wake at the restaurant for the Anderson's." She tells me and again I nod my head as I watch her pull the knot and secure it. She then straightens the flaps of my suit jacket and pulls lint from it. She looks up at me her eyes glowing,

"You're staring Mr. Cullen."

"Is it a crime to watch my wife?"

I ask with a crooked grin and she blushes. Isabella was the reason I got through all of this every day. She was the reason I hadn't gone insane or killed one the damn reporters who were skillfully twisting my words. She was also the person keeping me calm while Vincent and Jonathan worked hard to build a solid case against Benjamin.

"You enjoy calling me that don't you?'

She asked and I laugh, "You don't?" I ask back and she giggles and places a kiss on my lips. We finish getting ready then head out where Emmett and Seth are already waiting at the elevators.

"The press are deeper than usual with this being Hannah's funeral and it being known that of all the ones who have died from the shooting she was the closet to you."

Emmett informs me and I nod my head and take Isabella's hand into my own. We all get on to the elevators and head down to the grand floor. Before we even make it to the doors we can see the press peering to see into the glass doors.

"Stay behind me…"

Seth says as he walks out in front of us. Emmett assures he is behind us and we head out to the wolves. Seth pushed pass them all aggressively as he got us to the car. I could hear Emmett cursing at them to back the hell up and I quickly got Isabella into the car first. Once I climbed in Emmett and Seth quickly followed.

"I swear you know that movie Paparazzi?"

Isabella asked and I laughed taking her hand into mine, "If they don't back off I'm going to recreate that damn movie." She replies and I know that she is referring to the actor fighting back against the paparazzi. I kiss her temple and Seth drives off for the church. We were quiet in the car but I noticed the sick look on Isabella's face.

"Love are you alright?"

I ask her and she closes her eyes, holding her stomach. "What is that god awful smell?" She asked and I sniff the air trying to figure out what she's talking about. Then Emmett holds up a bag of sour cream and onion chips.

"You mean my chips?"

He asked and Isabella snatched the bag from his hand and tossed it out the window. "What the hell Bella!" Emmett yelled and Isabella sat back in the seat. I looked at her with my brow raised and she looked over at me.

"What?"

She asked looking at all of us and I saw Seth looking at her through the rearview mirror. "You just threw my damn chips out the window." Emmett said and she shrugged her shoulders.

"That smelled disgusting. They were probably bad or something."

She says and Emmett looks at me and I see the question in his eyes, "What the hell is wrong with her?" I shrug my shoulders and he turns around in his seat. When we arrive to the church Emmett and Seth climb out and a second later the door opens. I step out first then help Isabella out of the car. Thankfully the press had to stay across the street from the church so the pavement wasn't crowded. I helped Isabella up the steps and Mr. and Mrs. Anderson stood at the doors. Isabella hugged them both when we made it to them.

"I'm deeply sorry for your lost."

I say shaking Mr. Anderson's hand. "Stop apologizing Edward, you tried everything you could to save our daughter we know that you tried to find her a donor." He tells me and I run my fingers through my hair. After Hannah's operation the doctors said Hannah would need a heart transplant to survive, we never found one and she died from heart complications a few nights later.

"I'm sorry."

I say and Mrs. Anderson cups my face, "No more apologizing Edward." She says and I see Isabella smiling at us. We all enter the church and head to our seats, when a woman catches my attention. I stop walking and look at her with a smile on my face and she smiles back.

"What's wrong Edw…"

Isabella stops now seeing the same person I was seeing. She quickly let my hand go and walked over to her. The two quickly hugged each other,

"Jessica it's really good to see you."

I say and she smiles up at me still hugging Isabella. "It's good to see you too Edward." She says and Isabella slowly releases her.

"I thought the hospital said you couldn't be discharged until next week."

Isabella says and Jessica shrugs. "It pays to have Edward Cullen as your boss, toss his name around and you can get whatever you want." She replies and we all laugh.

"I couldn't miss Hannah's funeral and they wouldn't release me any other way. Oh Edward you owe the hospital a donation."

Jessica tells me and I laugh and hug her. I can tell it caught her by surprise but she soon hugged me back. "I'm just happy you're alive, Jessica." I inform her. Once I release her, she looks at Isabella with a smile on her face. Her husband Stanley walked over to me and, shook my hand then Isabella's. We all took our seats with the Anderson's and let the ceremony began. It was nothing but sad as everyone spoke about Hannah and how they would miss her.

Once the ceremony was over, we carried the coffin out and Jessica and Isabella walked out with Mrs. Anderson. We went to the burial and Mr. and Mrs. Anderson said their last goodbyes to their daughter. Isabella stuffed her face into my chest as she cried. When they lowered Hannah into the ground we all said the final prayer together. After we attended the wake at Angela and Ben's restaurant, it was a bittersweet moment.

"Edward is Bella sick?"

I hear Angela ask me and I turn around to face her. "I think so but she keeps telling me it's nothing." I reply and Angela inhales a deep breath.

"Why do you ask?"

"She told me that my parmesan chicken smelled like feet."

Angela says and I can't stop the laugh that irrupts from my lips. Angela slaps my shoulder with a smirk on her face. "It's not funny. She usually loves my chicken now it smells like feet." Angela says and I shrug my shoulders.

"She tossed Emmett's sour cream and onion chips out the car and said they smelled disgusting."

"You're kidding?"

"Nope."

I reply and Angela shakes her head. "Something is wrong with your wife." Angela says and I laugh. "She's your sister." I reply and Angela laughs as she wraps her arm with mine and we head back to find Isabella.

"True, but not by choice. You choose to marry that feisty smart ass opinionated woman."

Angela tells me and when we reach the kitchen Isabella is telling a cook off about putting too much seasoning on her food.

"Best decision I ever made."

I reply watching my wife snap on the poor man who was obviously scared to say anything. "Nicholas ignore my sister she's on her period." Angela says and Isabella turns around and looks at us with a smirk on her face.

"I am not, I'm just hungry and no one can seem to cook."

Isabella says as she walks over to us. Angela shakes her head as she slides her arm from mine. "You are in a five star restaurant you love, now no one can cook?" Angela asked and Isabella shrugged her shoulders and wrapped her arms around my waist. Angela placed her hand on Isabella's forehead.

"Nope no fever, must be an alien take over."

Angela jokes and I laugh earning a scowl from my gorgeous wife. "The two of you are not funny." She says and I lower my head to place a kiss on her lips. She melts into me and runs her tongue over my bottom lip.

"Mmm you taste good…"

She says and I laugh and kiss her nose. Angela shoos us out of the kitchen and we head back out to the dining room where everyone else were. We spotted my parents, Emily and Bree and we sat with them a table away from the Anderson's. When we sit down to eat Isabella picks off of my plate which eventually became her plate.

"Edward is Bella pregnant?"

Esme whispered to me and I looked over at my wife with a brow raised. So I wasn't the only one noticing her behavior. The issue was that I knew she would never take a pregnancy test of fear of the rejection that she wasn't. The fact was when we got home I would have to talk to her about it.

"I don't know."

I answered back and my mother simply nodded her head and said nothing else. When the wake was over the Anderson's thanked everyone for coming and we all give them our condolences again. When we walk outside the press is of course waiting.

"Bella how do you like being Mrs. Cullen?"

"I love it."

She answers with a smile and the camera's snap some more. "Edward will you miss single life?" they ask and I take Isabella's hand.

"Not a chance, married life suits me."

I reply and they laugh. "Will Masen be up and running again soon?" Another asked and it was honestly a good question. Against most of my family's wishes I put production on the company here in Chicago on hold. The reason this would be a problem for them was because it was the main location for Masen Corp.

"Maybe, maybe not. I want my employees to get better first, and then we can discuss business."

"What about your VP Benjamin Reynolds, he was arrested today."

Another one asked and Isabella and I looked at each other at the same time. "No comment." Isabella said and we quickly walked to the car. Seth opened the door and I helped Isabella in first then climbed in after her. I pulled out my phone and called my attorney right away.

"Mr. Cullen I was just preparing to call you, the police apprehended Benjamin this morning from his home."

He said and I couldn't stop the fucking grin that spread across my damn face. "That is the best news I've gotten all day Jenks." I say and he laughs into the phone.

"His arraignment is in an hour if you want to see the son of a bitch in hand cuffs."

He tells me and I tell him I'll be there soon. When I hang up Isabella is looking at me with a small smile touching her lips.

"So it's true?"

She asks and I nod my head and her face was glowing. I tell Seth to drive us down to the court house. I wanted to look this mother fucker in the face. When we arrive Jenks is already there waiting for us along with the press asking questions as usual. Emmett gets us passed the press and we enter the court house. Jenks tells us to stand in the back silently.

"You will hear some things that you didn't know but it is best you say nothing."

He tells us then he looks at Emmett when he says, "Especially you." Emmett looks at me and I shrug my shoulders. The judge sits at the bench and then call out the next case which was Benjamin. He came out in a blue suit and I saw when his eyes landed on us.

"The people via Masen Corp versus Benjamin Reynolds, for one count embezzlement in the first degree, one count fraud in the second degree, one count identity thief in the second degree."

The court officer shouted out then she showed the judge something. "The state is charging Mr. Reynolds?" She asked and another lawyer stands up next Jenks.

"Yes your honor, do to the the private investigators Mr. Cullen hired we discovered new evidence in closed cases."

"Such as Ms. Porter?"

"Two counts attempted murder in the second degree for the attempts made on Edward Cullen and Edmund Masen and one count man slaughter in the second degree for the murder Bo McCarty."

The woman said and my breath caught in my fucking chest. Bo McCarty was my grandfathers old body guard, and Emmett's father.

"I didn't kill anybody!"

He yelled and the judged ordered him to be quiet. "No you didn't you just hired someone to do your dirty work for you. We discovered that Mr. Koles hired the men to kill Edward Cullen and Edmund Masen. There was the failed attempt against Mr. Cullen almost a year ago, and the murder of Bo McCarty resulting from his attempt against Edmund Masen."

She continued and the judge held up her hand. "Save it for trial Ms. Porter." She tells her and she nods her head. I wanted to strangle that son of bitch, my nose flared and I balled my fist at my side. Isabella grabbed my attention when she hugged me and in my chest I heard her say. "Don't let him get the best of you." I tried to relax as I kissed the top of her head and hold her to me.

"Of course we request remand your honor."

"Your honor that is ridiculous this is my clients first offense, and that evidence should be thrown out because it was planted against my client. Those shooters never identified my client as part of any assassination attempt."

"Save it for trial Mr. Santiago. It may be a first offence but they are class A felonies, remand is granted."

The judge says and slams her gravel down. I quickly looked at Emmett and his face was red and he looked like he was just seconds from snapping his self. Isabella quickly went to him and hugged him. All this time and it was Benjamin who was responsible. It was his fault Emmett lost his father all those years ago. Benjamin looked back at us and Emmett started to move and Isabella and I quickly tried to stop him.

"Emmett they have him now…"

She says and he looks down into her face and then back at Benjamin who was being dragged from the room now. The mother fucker looked me in my face for years and not only was he trying to ruin my company but kill me too. Somehow we made it outside and the press was pounding us for answers.

"Eddie I need to be alone I know I'm supposed to be working but…"

"…Emmett you're my brother first. Go."

I tell him and Isabella quickly takes his hand. "I'm so sorry Em; I hope that bastard rots under the jail." She tells him and he gives her a half smile and hugs her. She looks up at him then says, "You shouldn't be alone, go see Rose. I know she's home." He nods his head, and then tells us that he will see us later. He leaves flagging a cab and Seth gets Isabella and me into the car. We're quiet for a while no one saying anything as I let it sink in just how much havoc Benjamin has caused.

"Do you think Emmett will be alright?"

"Yeah, it's just going to eat at him for a while."

"And how are you?"

She asked me playing with my fingers, "As good as a man can be when he finds out that the man his grandfather trusted tried to kill us." I reply and Isabella cups my face in her hands.

"I'm so sorry baby."

I lean over and place a kiss on her lips just as I feel my phone buzz in my pocket. I pull it out and see it is a text message from Emmett.

Tell your wife not to worry about me; I just really needed some air. I'll be by for dinner ; -) ~Em

I laughed and showed Isabella the message and she smiled placing her head on my shoulder. We drove around aimlessly for about an hour, while Isabella had Seth tell her about growing up on an army base. I honestly was listening to their conversation I just held her against me as I let it dawn on me what all had happened in the past six months. Isabella wanted to stop and eat at some restaurant and Seth and I teased her that we ate not too long ago.

"Are you calling me fat Mr. Cullen?"

"Of course not cheri, I love a woman with a big appetite."

I reply and Seth laughs, "Nice save." He says sarcastically as we enter the restaurant. I requested my table and we were quickly seated.

"So you have table everywhere?"

"I'm Edward Cullen."

I reply with a crooked grin and she rolls her eyes. "Yeah with a big head." She says and I lean and whisper in her ear that she would know better than anyone. The blush that covered her cheeks was beautiful.

"You two make me sick, I wish we had that separation glass in here."

Seth jokes and we all laugh as the waitress comes over. Her eyes bulge when she looks at me. "Oh my god, you're Edward Cullen." She says and I hear Isabella snort from next to me.

"Yes when I looked in the mirror this morning that's who I saw looking back at me."

I reply and she blushes as she laughs, "Right of course. I saw you in People's sexist man alive, have the magazine with me can you sign it?" She asked and before I could answer Seth stood up.

"Mr. Cullen came here to have a meal with his wife, not be disturbed by being asked for autographs. If you cannot conduct yourself professionally I would like to speak with your supervisor about someone who can."

Seth told her and she looked at me as if I was going to disagree with what Seth just told her. When I obviously didn't say what she wanted me to she nodded her head as she looked back at Seth.

"I'm sorry. Can we start with your drink orders?"

She asked pulling out her pad and pin. We all ordered our drink orders and she walks away with a little too much swing in her hip.

"If she bats those lashes, and licks those crusty lips at you again she'll be leaving here with my shoe print on her ass."

Isabella says and Seth and I both laugh as I take Isabella's hands into mine. "I only have eyes for you cheri." I inform her and she leans in close our lips barely touching when she says,

"You better Mr. Cullen."

I kiss her lips and we enjoy lunch together. Isabella was finding out more about Seth then I knew myself, but she said that if Seth had to be her body guard she wanted to feel like he was her friend too. Most of lunch Isabella was giving the waitress death stares especially when the waitress 'accidently' dropped something and bent over in front of me. I had to hold Isabella down when she did that, hell cat was out and ready to fight. Seth and I kept joking that Isabella would turn the poor girl to ice.

"She's obviously flirting with you like I'm not sitting here."

"So you get to act possessive but I can't?"

I tease her and she smiles shaking her head, "Shut up." She tells me and I laugh placing another kiss on her lips just as the waitress came over to our table.

"Is your meal alright Mr. Cullen, do you need anything else?"

"Just the bill, my wife and I are ready to go home, Newlywed business."

I say and Isabella laughs as the waitress looks between Isabella and I and walk away. When the bill comes I see a note in the leather folder and Isabella snatches it obviously seeing it too.

"Call me Stephanie."

Isabella reads and she quickly gets up from the table. "Isabella, where are you going?" I ask her and she inhales a deep breath as she narrowed her eyes. I could tell she was looking for the waitress.

"To find Stephanie to kick the whores ass."

Isabella replies and I pull her back down into her seat and I wave my hand over to the manager. He quickly comes over to the table with a smile.

"Good evening Mr. Cullen, I hope your meal was satisfying."

"Yes my meal was perfect, but I have a complaint about one of your waitresses."

"Which one?"

"That little tramp over there."

Isabella says pointing over at her and Seth and I smile. Yes, my Isabella was pissed. I began to tell him what happened and he assured me that he would take care of it. When he walked away I turned to Isabella,

"He's going to fire her…"

"What?"

"He'd going to fire her. When I make a complaint that's' how he takes care of the problem."

I inform her and Isabella looks horrified. "Then why did you do that, I thought she would get like a slap on the wrist. What if she has kids or something?" Isabella says and I shake my head as I get up from the table and then help her up.

"Then she should have stand professional, and not piss my wife off."

"I'm not telling you when anyone else pisses me off if your answer will be to get them fired."

Isabella says and I decide to keep it to myself some other people I've had fired for pissing her off in the past. When we leave Isabella says she wants to stop by her loft to get some of her things. She hadn't stepped a foot in it since we've been back in the states but that was more so my fault because we were always busy. Seth drove us to her place and when we arrive, Isabella sighs when we pull up next to her car.

"I miss my car…"

"Bella I love you like a sister, but I'm not driving that damn thing."

Seth says and we all laugh as we get out of the car. "Then I'll drive it." She says and then looks over at me with her large doe eyes. I knew what she was silently asking me.

"I love you chéri, and for that reason you are not allowed out of Seth's sight."

"You suck."

She says walking away from me and taking Seth's arm as we all head to the building. Once we are upstairs and approach her door my nose flares seeing that the door is ajar. Isabella looks back at me with worried eyes.

"Isabella stay here and call the police."

I tell her in case someone was still inside of her place. "Edward don't what if someone is still in there?" She says and I cup her face and place a kiss on her lips. "I'll be right back chéri, stay here, please." I say and she nods her head yes. Seth pulls his gun from his hip and he slowly pushes the door open and we both enter slowly.

I didn't see anything out of place but we continued to look around. I told Seth I was going to check upstairs while he finished checking down here. I slowly walked up the steps and when I hit her bedroom my blood was on fire. It was trashed and almost everything was broken. But that wasn't what was pissing me off, no it wasn't seeing Isabella clothes all over the floor or the things from her dresser broken and scattered about. It wasn't the obvious written words on her mirror, or the torn picture on the floor. What made my fucking blood burn was the bastard sitting on her bed holding a pair of her underwear to his face. I stormed into the room and gripped him by his neck slamming him into the wall.

"Give me one reason why I shouldn't kill you James"

I sneer as he struggles to breath. I want the son of a bitch dead but I wasn't about to give him the satisfaction of it being done by my hand. I release my hand from his neck but grip his shirt collar. Coughing he tries to catch his breath.

"I am going to sue your ass for everything this time."

James said and I slam him making his head bang against the wall. "You broke into my wife's apartment. I was worried for her well being." I reply just as I hear Seth call up to me.

"Seth, take Isabella outside."

I yell and before I can turn back around James quickly slips from my hand and I quickly grab him by his shoulder slamming him back into the dresser so hard the dresser places a dent in the wall. I could hear Seth feet storming up the steps as he shouted for Isabella to stay out in the hall. Just as I saw James fist fly my way, I quickly dodged it and kneed the son of a bitch in his stomach and punched him in his jaw. He had no idea how ling I've wanted to do that. Seth stormed into the room and told me to move. He quickly grabbed James pinning him against the wall with his large arm.

"Edward what the hell is going on up there?"

I hear Isabella yell from down stairs, "Isabella please just stay down there, and call the police!" I hell back and James tries to move again and Seth lifts him up with both hands and slams him into the wall.

"Move again and you will be a part of this wall."

Seth warns him and I look at James fighting with the urge to kill the son of a bitch. "What the fuck are you doing here?" I ask him and he says nothing so Seth slams his head into the wall.

"Answer the question."

Seth tells him, "I came to see Bella!" he yelled out and I walk over and stood in front of him. "She doesn't want to fucking see you? Why don't you just do yourself a favor and leave her the hell alone." I reply and he actually growled at me like some damn animal when he says.

"Because she's MINE, she always will be!"

Before I could reply I hear Isabella say, "I am not yours James, and I never will be again." I turn around and look at her.

"Isabella I told you to stay downstairs."

"Since when have I ever done as you tell me to?"

She replies and I shake my head knowing that she had a point. The only time she every even came close to following orders was while we were making love. I look back at James,

"Leave my wife alone or it will the last damn thing you do."

"She's not your wife!"

He yelled and Isabella walked further into the room. "I am his wife James, god for once can you just leave me the hell alone." Isabella tells him and I walk over to her and cup her face in my hand.

"Did you call the police?"

"Yes."

She answers and I see her look over at James who was glaring at us now. "Seth, take his ass down stairs and wait for the police." I tell him and he nods his head and places James arms over his head and pushes him out the room.

"You still love me Bella you know you do…"

"…I hate you James."

Isabella tells him as Seth pushes him and slams James face into the door frame when he says James, "Don't speak to her again." Once they are out of the room Isabella places her head against my chest.

"Can we run away to an island…"

"I own one up by Rio."

I reply and she looks up at me, "What?" she asked and I laugh and explain that the Masen's have land, an island up in Rio. She shakes her head and says that we have entirely too much money. I look over at the mirror and am able to make out the message that was obviously left for Isabella.

Leave him alone, or you will be found on the floor of Lake Michigan.

His one and only true Love

Maria

My nose flared at the little message. If I got my hands on Maria she was dead. "God I'm so tired of this shit." Isabella says and I look down at her needing her to elaborate. She was looking at the mirror and I hoped this didn't scare her off. She had to know I wouldn't let anything happen to her. She had to know I would die for her, kill for her.

"Isabella I won't let her get anywhere near you…"

"…I know that. I'm just tired of it. I want her to find me so we can end this now, I'm not afraid of her."

Isabella says and I cup her face in my hands, I go to tell her I know she wasn't when Seth yells upstairs that the police are here. I kiss her forehead and take her hand as we head downstairs. Seth is handing James over to the police and everything else moved so fast I hardly had time to react. James pulled the officer gun from his hip then yelled,

"If you're not mine you're no one's!"

And he aimed it at us, Isabella screamed as the shot rang out. I quickly went to shield her and I thought I didn't get to her in time when I watched her fall hitting her head hard on the step. I could hear Seth and the officer fighting James to the ground but I was focused on Isabella.

"Isabella baby look at me…"

I say as fear starts to set in that she may have been shot. I began to check her for any signs of blood and was thankful when I didn't see any. Her eyes were still closed and she was still out of it though and he scared the fuck out of me that he was seriously hurt.

"Edward is she hit?"

Seth asked me and I cup Isabella's face as she starts to open her eyes. "No, get that son of a bitch out of here before I kill him!" I yell and Isabella tries to sit up and I stop her.

"I'm fine I just hit my head."

"Isabella you were out for a few seconds."

"I'm fine."

She argues but I'm not taking chances. "Seth get the car we're going to take Isabella to the hospital." I reply and Isabella tries to sit up again and I can tell it made her dizzy

"Edward I'm fine."

"Then humor me and go to the hospital."

I say helping her up slowly. We leave out of her loft and I lock the door behind me not that I planned on Isabella coming back here for anything. I was going to higher movers and have Heidi or Alice buy her, whatever else she would need for home or work. When we get outside we see the police stuffing James into the back of the cruiser and he shouts out that it wasn't over between him and Isabella until death did them part. If he said one more word to her I was going to make that happen for him.

I quickly get Isabella into the car and pull out my phone to call my father. "Hello son." He said sounding as if I had woke him up.

"Hey dad, I have to take Isabella to the hospital…"

"…No you don't I'm fine."

She yells and I see Seth shaking his head from the driver seat. "Is she alright?" My father asked sounding more alert now and I tell him what just happened. Then explain that I was taking her to General Hospital and didn't have the patience to wait to see someone.

"I'll call my colleague Dr. Warner. He doesn't usually see none critical E.R patients since he's chief of Staff but he owes me a favor."

Carlisle says and I thank him. "Edward this is a waste of time." She says while rubbing her head. "Does your head hurt?" I ask her and she inhales a deep breath.

"It's just a headache."

"Isabella you hit your head pretty hard…"

I inform her and she looks at me and says nothing. When we arrive to the hospital I quickly tell the nurse I'm here to see Dr. Warner and she instructs me to what room to take Isabella too. We sit in the room all of five minutes when the doctor enters.

"Edward good to finally meet you…"

He says holding out his hand to shake mine. I quickly shake his hand and he looks at Isabella. "And you must be the beautiful daughter in law. Carlisle said you hit your head pretty hard." He says pulling out one of those little flash lights and checking her eyes. He says everything appears to look alright but he would be more comfortable with her getting a MRI. Isabella wasn't happy about it but I told her she could be mad at me later.

"Mrs. Cullen do you have any medication allergies?"

"None that I know of, but I'm allergic to shell fish."

"Alright. I would also like to administer what is hospital protocol a blood and urine test before I write you any pain killer prescriptions. The test are just to assure you are not on any other drugs, have any disease that could have a negative effect to any medication and that you are not pregnant."

Isabella looked at me, and I knew she thought I was behind this. "cheri I had nothing to do with this." I assure her and she turns and looks at the doctor.

"I've never taken drugs in my life other then Tylenol and Aleve. I have no diseases get tested regularly and I'm not pregnant, I can't have children."

"Isabella…"

"Edward not here please…"

She said obviously already knowing that I was about to correct her. I hated how she let all of this eat her alive. I loved her no matter what, but the idea that when it came to her never being able to have children being the one part of herself she hated, killed me.

"Well it's just procedure Mrs. Cullen."

Dr. Warner informed her and she nodded her head. "I understand." She replied. He ordered the test and we waited patiently for him to return. It was quiet in the room and Isabella looked like she was about to fall asleep.

"Cheri you can't sleep yet. Dr. Warner said he doesn't want you to sleep until he has you MRI results."

I remind her looking down into her face and she moans that she's sleepy and me and Dr. Warner were being big stupid heads. Apparently my wife became a two year old when she was extremely tired. It was cute. I kept Isabella awake by telling her to tell me a story. Most of it was slurred but she was awake. It was so damn nerve wrecking waiting in that damn hospital room all that time. By the time Dr. Warner came back in I was ready to sleep.

"I have your results, Mrs. Cullen. Your MRI came back negative for any serious injury, just a mild concussion. I've written you a prescription for pain killers."

He says and Isabella nods her head as it rest against my shoulder. "…also a prescription for prenatal vitamins." He continues and Isabella and I both look at him as if we were hearing shit.

"What? I took a home pregnancy test this morning and it said I was negative."

Isabella says and I look at her and she shakes her head. "I didn't want to tell you, and see that sad look on your face like the other night. I couldn't hurt you like that again." She says and shakes her head as she looks away from me.

"When I saw that negative again it made me sick to my stomach and I couldn't stop vomiting."

She says and I lift her face to look at me and I place a kiss on her lips. "Chéri I was only concerned about you hurting, I love you no matter what." I inform her and she nods her head, "I love you too." She replies and we both look back at Dr. Warner. He smiled at us as he sits down.

"That was morning sickness and you being upset just gave you a harsher case. You're urine test came back negative due to low HCG in your urine. But your blood test was positive, you are pregnant Mrs. Cullen."
