Today I told Edward everything. When I say everything I mean everything. I told him all about your father. I told him about why I find it hard to trust him. I cried and he held me. Not once did he go to walk away. It feels as if a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders now that he knows. I suppose all that is left to do is to tell you the rest of the story. Where was I when we last left off. Oh right there:
He dropped me off home and again was really gentlemanly. He walked me to the door and kissed me good night. The next day at school he held my hand around the corridors and sat with his arm around me at lunch. At that point in time everything was perfect. Too bad these things don't last.
He took me out on more dates and things got more serious between us. He kept pressuring me to do things I didn't want to but in the end I gave in, what was the harm right. The thing is sweetie is that is how I ended up with you. That is not the worst of it though, that I could have handled. A few days after that night I went round to James house to see him. I knocked on his door and his mom sent me up to his room. I got to the top of the stairs I heard voices coming from his room. I couldn't believe he would do this to me. I walked in on his room and found him in a rather compromising position with some blonde cheerleader from school. I was devastated. I ran from him. He tried to call me that night to talk but I refused to talk to him. I avoided him at school. I was hurt, no one had ever betrayed me like that and it truly hurt. Not that I loved James, far from it actually. Love it what I feel for Edward, for you, for my parents. It was just a school girl crush that I had on James.
A few weeks later I had no choice but to talk to James again because I found out that I was having you. I had already made the decision to keep you despite what James had wanted. When I told him he went crazy, screaming and shouting at me. Telling me that you weren't his, that there must have been a mistake. Then he did something I never thought would happen. He hit me across the face the then pushed me over. I think he would have kept going but his parents walked in at that moment. I just remember crying and his mom holding me. They took me home and I just sobbed my heart out into my pillow.
When I went to school James had spread around that I had been cheating on him and that I was pregnant with someone else's child. That was when the victimisation started. Everywhere I went people called me names and threatened me. I even got beat up again. That was when my mom said enough was enough and contacted the school. In the end it was decided that it would be better for me to stop attending school. That didn't stop it though, they started coming by the house. That was when I was sent to live with Charlie. Away from it all.
There you have it baby girl. Edward held me in his arms whilst I told him all this. He told me that he will always be here, holding my hand, every step of the way. I tell Edward that if I find it hard to trust him it is not his fault, just the way I was hurt in the past. Edward tells me that he understands, and that he can be patient.
After everything was out in the open me and Edward enjoyed out picnic in the park. The sun was shining and it was relatively warm considering the time of year. After we had eaten we went for a walk around the duck pond in the middle of the park. We strolled along fingers entwined pushing the pram around. Edward and I also, discussed the future. We both want to get married and have more children. What's more is that Edward said if we were to get married and if it was okay with me he wants to adopt you.
I feel like I am finally free and can actually move on with my life after James. Now that the awkward conversation was out of the way I feel as if our relationship can really move forward. No one can know what the future holds but with Edward by myself I know I can face anything. There will be trials but they never said life would be easy they just promised it would be worth it.
All my love
Mummy
