Chapter 11: Miss Nothing

The club was thumping with activity; bodies tightly packed on the dance floor grinding among other stuff. At that moment the speakers were blasting the newest alternative chart topper. In a small corner of the establishment sat the Cullen troupes clad in black t-shirts with a crimson ribbon stitched on in the shape of a half moon. The family elders looked pretty comfortable in the club finding their youth much to the dismay of their children.
'Get a room.' Rosalie said eyeing her kissing parents over her Blackberry. She typed away on messenger feeling rather uncomfortable in that atmosphere; she had been a rock fan once back when she and Edward had been close but since she'd moved towards the likes of Rihanna and The Script. On top of it all she was wedged between the boulder named Emmett and Edward who she didn't even spare a look towards. Bella smiled softly from Edward's side towards her honorary parents as they shot grins at Rosalie. Under the table she held Edward's hand nervously for tonight was the night they'd announce her pregnancy via the stage. He squeezed her hand gently in reassurance.

The previous day Bella had returned from the doctors with confirmed pregnancy after throwing up in a morning for a little over a week. She had for obvious reasons tried to keep it from Edward until confirmation.
'Edward?' Bella had called stepping into the apartment hanging up her coat on the hooks. Light piano music filled the May air and she smiled. There he was sat in his own world playing at the baby Grand piano whilst staring out into the bay: which the apartment over looked. She must have stood watching him for a good five or so minutes whilst holding a hand to her stomach imagining an image that would never come true; Edward with his son or daughter on his lap watching and maybe learning to play the piano with him. he laughed and tickled the child occasionally but whispered the right keys into their ear too.

The image became short lived when the song came to an end and the pianist finally felt another presence in the room with him.
He looked round to Bella and grinned sheepishly 'Sorry was in my own little world for a while there.' She nodded in return and sat next to him once he moved over a little 'So where've you been?'
'To the doctors.' She said offhandedly playing a light tune Edward had taught her a few days after her mother's death. Edward's illness paled face somehow managed to get paler.
'A-Are you ok?' He asked panicked looking for any sign of illness. He may not be the doctor in his family but his father had taught him some basics. The visual check over gave off nothing in fact she looked as fine as ever.
Bella laughed and smirked 'Oh I'm fine now but I might be off for a while soon though.'
'Huh?' He demanded confused by her statement.
'I'm going to get a bit fat and a little hormonal over the next eight or so months.' He stared at her for a long moment before his green eyes got their light back that had been lost since February when his life got turned upside down. He looked down towards her stomach and brushed a shaky hand over it. Nothing amazing happened other than the smile spreading across Bella's face but within a minute Edward was up on the stool.
'I'm going to be a dad!' He almost screamed throwing his hands up in the air in joy. Unfortunately sudden movement causing the leather lined porcelain to topple backwards sending both soon to be parents crashing to the floor with an oof.
'Take it your happy then?' Bella chuckled still lying on the floor Edward who had landed on the other side of the chair threw up a thumb stifling a groan.

'Bella are you ok dear?' Esme asked worriedly staring at her honorary daughter who was currently staring into her drink a little green looking. All head's, minus Rosalie who continued to type away on her Blackberry, turned to her instantly Edward looking worried more so.
'Just feel a little..' She covered her mouth 'Sick.' Edward stood instantly and pulled her up.
'I'll take her to the restroom.' He spoke quickly. She swayed a little at first worried about being sick there; her morning sickness had became an all day thing which Google had claimed natural. Placing a hand on the small of her back he guided her towards the Disabled toilet so he could enter with her and hold her hair back. The family watched them with frowns.
'There's something weird going on between them...' Carlisle mused more so to himself but others nodded.
'Maybe they're getting it on finally.' Emmett grinned downing his Jack Daniels and Pepsi 'Jasper said he had a woman in his bed a few weeks back.' Both parents barley blinked as that settled in their minds they always thought it inevitable; the pair had hardly been separated since childhood.
'Well...' Esme started 'As long as they use comdoms.' before sipping some of her husband's beer. Rosalie's eyes shot towards them with a look of disgust; this was a word she'd never wanted to hear her parents utter before her.
'He's not stupid enough not to Moma C.' Emmett chuckled getting up and heading back to the bar.

'Give me anything but all day morning sickness.' Bella mumbled lent over the toilet slightly. Edward let her hair down and passed her a paper towel to wipe her mouth with.
'All part of Motherhood.' Edward consoled as she cleaned her mouth and stood up brushing off her black jeans. They were lucky; if she'd been a second later the sick would have plastered the floor twice. He pulled her too him 'Anyway this was a good excuse to get ready for the big announcement in,' he looked to his watch 'Ten minutes.'
Bella groaned she hated being the centre of attention in any way 'Damn it.' He chuckled in reply and unlocked the door and guided her to backstage. The doorman nodded them past and pointed out the way to the stage.
'Ok so once the club owner Laurent introduces us.' Edward explained to her as they took the steps onto said stage 'I'll tell everyone the good news. You just smile and be happy.' She nodded in reply herself and awaited the moment the cat got out of the bag.

Laurent stood in the middle of the stage with a fake grin plastered on his face as he spoke about the band about to play. They were not the problem but he hated it when people wanted to make public announcements on his stage there for prolonging his time on the stage and the band's entrance. He loved his club but he was not by far a people person at all.
'So before the band come on we have two people here who'd like to make a special announcement.' With a hand moment he beckoned the duo into the light. Taking a step back he passed the microphone to Edward who pulled a nervous and very embarrassed Bella to his side.
'Hi I'm Edward Cullen, also the brother of Jasper who's in Crescent Moon, and this is Bella Swan and we have a big announcement to make to our family.' Immediately all the Cullen troop looked up to the stage confused as did Jasper who stood in the far back of the stage getting the equipment ready 'We'd like to tell you all that as of a few days ago it's confirmed that we're pregnant!'
