CHAPTER 6

"Are you okay?" Edward asked me for the millionth time today.

I sighed and turned to face him. "Yeah, why?"

"You're being awfully quiet."

I played nervously with the hem of my t-shirt, avoiding looking at him. It had been an hour since I found out that my period was late and I still couldn't wrap my head around it. "I have a headache. That's all," I lied. I hated doing this to Edward, but until I was absolutely sure that I was pregnant, I couldn't tell him anything.

He said nothing, but he did turn down the volume of the radio a bit. I looked out the window and let my mind wander.

Could I be pregnant? I'd only had sex twice this year and I remembered using condoms. Or at least I thought we did. The second time I was sure we did, but the first? I couldn't remember. All I could think about was how good it felt to be with Edward. Why couldn't I remember?

Maybe I wasn't pregnant. Periods were late all the time.

Not yours! A small voice whispered in my head.

Not mine. I was never late. My period was always on time. What was I going to do? What would Edward say? Would he hate me? Us? Of course he would. I was going to destroy his future. I was going to destroy his life before he'd even started living it. Should I even tell him?

What about Charlie? He was going to have a heart attack. He would be so devastated as well as disappointed. He trusted me not to do anything reckless and I did. I had sex without protection. I should've gone on the pill, like my aunt, Angela, had suggested. But no, I was sure I wouldn't need it.

I was such an idiot!

Three hours later, we arrived in front of Emmett and Rosalie's building. They were renting their own place in a very nice and expensive building. They didn't want to stay separated by living in dorms, so they found this place to call their own for the rest of their stay in Seattle.

"What floor are they on?" I asked once we'd gotten into the elevator.

"Fifteenth." Edward pushed the button with the number fifteen engraved on it and we were on our way.

"Maybe we should've brought them something. It's the first time we're visiting them." I tried to clear my mind from babies and pacifiers.

"You're right." Edward nodded. "Oh well, I'm going to pay for dinner or something and we'll be cool." The elevator dinged and the doors opened. "This way." He pointed to the right and I followed close behind him.

We stopped in front of a door with the number 15b on it and Edward rang the bell.

"I'm coming!" Rosalie shouted from inside.

"Maybe we should leave, then," Edward shouted back.

"Asshole!" She smacked the back of his head once she'd opened the door.

"Bells! How are you?" She pulled me into a hug, and for once I felt like everything would be okay.

"Good, you?" I said and took off my coat.

"Great. Emmett, come. Bella's here," Rose shouted towards what must be the kitchen.

"Am I invisible or something?" Edward asked from the doorway.

Rosalie laughed and hugged him as well. "I missed you, you big baby."

I let them reunite and went to hunt Emmett down. He was in the kitchen.

What a surprise!

"Hey, Emmett. Didn't you miss us?" I asked teasingly, crossing my arms.

"Belly!" he exclaimed and pulled me into a huge, bone-crushing hug.

"Hey! Don't crush her. I need her," Edward said from behind us.

"Eddie!" He did the same to a very pissed off Edward.

"Don't call me that!" he hissed and pushed him away.

"Lunch will be ready soon. Why don't you go and talk in the living room while I cook?" Rosalie pushed us out of the kitchen.

"I'll help you!" I offered. I wasn't very comfortable with being in the same room as Edward right now.

"Okay. Why don't you start the salad?" Rosalie handed me a bowl and some vegetables. "So, how are things between you and Golden Boy?"

"You've been talking to Alice?" I raised an eyebrow at her.

"Maybe," she said slyly.

"Things are good."

She put the chicken in the oven and turned to face me. "A little birdie told me that you slept together last night."

I'm going to kill Alice!

I gave her a pointed look, hoping she understood that I didn't want to talk about it right now. No such luck.

"So, are you a couple now?"

I finished fixing the salad and wiped my hands clean with a towel. "I don't know. We haven't talked about it yet."

She didn't say anything in return and we continued to work in silence. When lunch was ready, we called the guys in and had a lovely time. It was a great idea to come and visit them. I could see that Edward was glowing with happiness the entire time. It was obvious that he'd missed his brother so much. They were really very close and the distance was killing them. Also, it was a nice way to keep myself from overthinking my situation. I decided to leave it for now and just have a good time. I'd worry about it later. However, my stomach had other things in mind.

We were in the middle of watching a movie when Rosalie brought out cherry pie that she'd baked. As expected, my stomach tied in itself into knots and in seconds I was bending over the toilet, vomiting like no tomorrow

"Bella, are you okay?" Edward asked from outside the bathroom.

"Yeah. I'll be okay," I said, before starting to throwing up again.

When I was out of the bathroom, Rosalie pushed me back in, claiming that she had a spare toothbrush for me to use.

"Here." She shoved the toothbrush into my hands gave it to me a little too harshly.

She knows!

"Are you...?" She didn't need to elaborate; I knew what she was talking about.

"I haven't taken a test yet." I started brushing my teeth.

"How late are you?" She closed the lid of the toilet and sat on it.

"Two weeks," I mumbled. My mouth was full with paste.

"Damn!" she whispered, clearly upset.

Tears started forming in my eyes as I was cleaning my mouth. "I'm sorry." My voice broke and violent sobs erupted from me.

"It's okay." Rosalie hugged me tightly and rubbed my back. "We're going to figure it out. I'll send the boys out for a beer and you're going to take the test, okay?"

I wiped away my tears and splashed some water onto my face. "Okay."

"Are you okay?" Edward rushed to me once I was out of the bathroom.

"Yeah. It must be the flu or something." I tried to come up with a believable lie. It seemed reasonable enough.

"Hey, why don't you guys go out and have a beer or something? We need to have girl talk," Rosalie suggested.

Edward seemed conflicted. "I won't leave. I'll take you to the hospital, okay? Grab your coat."

"No, I'm fine. You go out." I pushed him towards an eager looking Emmett. "I'm fine, really."

"You're sure?" He put his coat on still looking concerned, but slightly appeased.

"Yes." I kissed him softly on the lips and pushed him out of the door.

"I won't be long," he said before he went out left with Emmett.

"Is there a pharmacy nearby?" I asked, getting my coat.

"I have a pregnancy test here." She took the coat from my hands and put it away again.

"Why do you have a pregnancy test here?" I followed her to the bathroom.

"I always have some in the house. Just in case." She winked at me before opening a cupboard and pulling a box out.

"Here. Pee." She handed me the box and left the bathroom.

I pulled the pregnancy stick out of the box and stared at it. This would define my life. This held my future! Sighing, I pulled out the instructions and read them very carefully. It seemed easy enough. I sat on the toilet and began to pee, while I had to making sure I was aiming the stick. Okay, that was a little difficult.

I placed it on top of the counter, washed my hands and then walked out of the bathroom.

"Done?" Rosalie asked from her spot where she sat on the couch.

"In three minutes, we'll know," I mumbled, sitting next to beside her.

"How are you feeling?" She wrapped her arm around my shoulders.

"I don't know."

In three short minutes, I'd know if I should be applying to colleges or looking for baby clothes. I didn't know what I wanted. I loved kids and I did want to have a lot of them, but not now. Not when I was still in high school, not when things with Edward and I weren't stable yet. I wanted to go to college, go to nightclubs and drink until O got wasted. I wanted to have experiences. I wanted to be spontaneous. I wanted to live my life!

But a baby would be nice, I guessed. They were so nice and cute, with their little toes and fingers and toes. Their laughter was so cute. They were capable of making all of your problems melt away with just a smile. But they needed a lot of care. They needed to be fed very often, they didn't sleep at night, and they needed someone watching them all the time.

I couldn't do that. I wasn't capable to raising a kid on my own. I would completely ruin this baby's life. I wasn't ready to be a mother. And Edward? Would he be there for me? Would he be angry? Would he ask for me to abort it or give it up for adoption? Would he be there for us, or would he run away? I couldn't ask him to give up his life for me. I wouldn't do that to him.

I won't destroy his life!

"Time is up." Rosalie patted my thigh.

"I can't look at it. You do it."

I think I'm going to faint!

"Okay." She walked into the bathroom and came back with the test in clutched in her hand. "Ready?" she asked me. I took a deep sigh and nodded. I was ready!

Rosalie rolled the pregnancy test over and her eyes widened a little. She handed it to me and her expressive was one of sadness.

"You're pregnant."

I felt my knees go weak and the next thing I knew, I was surrounded by darkness.


So, that was it! What do you think? I know it took time for Bella to find out that she's pregnant. Sorry! Please leave me a review with your thoughts, opinions and, maybe suggestions.

Thank you for reading!
