How to Save a Life

by bexie25

Step one you say we need to talk, he walks you say sit down, it's just a talk. He smiles politely back at you. You stare politely right on through. Meeting on a bus, Edward and Bella are immediately attracted to each other but their gloomy, abuse-ridden pasts make them both hesitant to trust anyone. Follow them as Bella learns not only how to save a life, but hers is saved as well.

214. Chapter 213

"Esme is going to be thrilled," Carlisle says and Edward and I look at each other.

To my relief, it's Edward who speaks. "Um, Carlisle… we were actually rather hoping to keep it between ourselves… just until Bella reaches her second trimester. Anything can happen and we don't want to get people's hope if…"

"If something happens," Carlisle finishes for him and we look up at him to see he's smiling. "It's fine; most couple's do that. I won't breathe a word until you give me the 'ok.'"

I smile, "thanks."

He shrugs. "Now, do want an ultrasound? We can check how far along you are then have one if you'd like."

I look at Edward, giggle at how excited he is – though I'm sure I'm just as excited – and then nod.

That's up next.

So, I'm sitting here... in my room... on my laptop... with my school tracksuit pants... and my Team Edward Twilight Saga New Moon t-shirt on... watching Charmed. Yep. I've gotta be weird, right?

Gah!

Please review (before I go crazy!)
