Bella's POV:

I had woken up feeling rather nauseous but before I could even think about getting to the bathroom I heard a loud commotion downstairs. My mother screaming, a lot of banging and a masculine groan. I had gone down to see Paul on the floor holding his head trying to talk to Phil and Phil holding a baseball bat standing in front of Renee.

This all led me to heading down to talk to the pair of them while Paul rested upstairs.

"I am so sorry Bella" Phil said.

I raised a hand and cut him off "It is a mixture of everyone's fault so honestly you don't have to apologize. However next time I would appreciate if you saw who it was before you attacked them with a baseball bat- my 'family'" I said using air quotes "Has keys and pretty much comes and goes at will."

Phil nodded and my mom piped up "Why would you want that?"

I rolled my eyes "Because they are welcome here whenever. Some of the younger guys, Paul, Sam and Jarrod mentor don't have the greatest situations and so all of our homes are safe havens for them. They can come to eat, play, talk or just sit in a quiet area." I fibbed slightly but it was mostly the truth.

"Oh" Renee said. "What are with the scars? Nasty past?"

I glared at her "Mother!" I said through gritted teeth "Those scars are from a building collapse early last year. Sam rescued him." I stated simply.

She shook her head "I don't know about him Bella, he doesn't seem quite your type. Not like that Cullen boy. Now you are having a baby and you've only been with him almost two months." At this point Phil had stood up and left knowing that it was probably time to get out of the warpath.

"Out!" I said trying to keep my temper under control. Damn hormones. I was literally shaking with anger.

"Bella, come on be realistic." Renee continued "You are both young, you hardly know each other and you are pregnant. You have to think about that baby too now. At least with Edward you knew he was going to be around."

"Right" I scoffed "So that is why he abandoned me. Paul is my soul mate. He will never leave me and he will do everything in his power to keep from hurting me. If you ever bring up Edward's name again in association with me, my child or my relationship with Paul I will never speak to you again."

My rant was interrupted by the doorbell ringing and Emily's head popping through the front door.

"Oh, I will come back later" She said glancing between my mother and me. I had moved to a standing position near Renee and was sure I looked like a mad woman.

"No Emily you can stay, Renee is just getting ready to leave. At the very least for the day." I waved my hand towards Renee and gave Emily a small smile. I noticed Kim standing just behind her and waved. I managed to get out "Hey Ki-" before a wave of nausea worse than any I'd had before overcame me and I tore off to the ground floor bathroom.

I lucked out and was able to shut the door and kneel by the toilet before retching. I continued being ill for awhile which was frustrating because I hadn't eaten anything yet today so I had nothing in my stomach to be ill with!

I heard a soft knock on the door and called "Out in a minute."

"You ok Bella?" Kim asked.

"I'm fine" I called remembering I still hadn't told her about the baby, however if she had heard my fight with Renee then she already knew.

I rinsed my mouth, patted my face with the cool water and was throwing my hair into another ponytail as I exited the bathroom. Emily gave me a knowing, sympathetic look and Kim just looked worried. I noticed that Claire was in a baby carrier next to the couch and made my way to free her.

"Bella are you sure you're alright, sounded like you were pretty sick." Kim said her voice was laced with worry.

"Well sadly morning sickness is probably going to be my least favorite pregnancy symptom." I said casually as I picked up Claire. Emily had teased the other day that Claire had taken to me better than she had to even Quil her imprint. I was sad that Claire was only going to be staying here for a few more days and then Emily's sister was going to pick her up to take her home.

Kim's jaw dropped similar to how Renee's had last night. "You're pregnant?" She shrieked excitedly. Wow that girl could get high pitched when she wanted to.

I nodded "I am going to Carlisle later today to find out how far along I am but I think 5 weeks."

Kim and Emily exchanged a look and when I asked what Emily laughed "You two have only been a couple 7 weeks! Man do you two move fast!"

I blushed wildly "I love him, he loves me, it's not a big deal."

"Are you guys moving up the wedding?" Kim asked flouncing onto the couch next to Emily. I sat down on the rocking chair I had had Paul move in and held Claire in my lap.

"Nope we aren't." I shook my head. "So what brings you two over this morning?"

"We were going to see if you wanted to go for breakfast but it sounded like a war in here." Emily laughed.

"Sorry guys I think I'll have to pass today, honestly all I want to do is go and curl back up next to Paul and sleep till the morning sickness disappears for today." I grimaced as I thought about eating a big meal. "Rain check?"

"Of course" Emily and Kim said in unison.

We sat and talked for a few more minutes making plans to go shopping the next day and I promised them I would invite Alice and Rosalie when I went to see Carlisle later before Emily scooped Claire out of my arms and the trio took off for their fun filled day.

I yawned and stretched fighting through another wave of nausea. I headed back up the stairs and opened my bedroom door.

Paul lay there fast asleep a small snore escaping him every once in awhile. I smiled and thought to myself how if this were what every morning for the rest of my life was like I would be happy.

I snuck quietly over to the bed, climbed under the covers and smiled as Paul's still sleeping form conformed around me, holding me tightly. Ya I could definitely be happy with this forever.
