If I Fell

Chapter 9

"Bella, I'm not trying to be a hard ass, really. The doctor said you need to eat. You've got to gain weight and these are the easiest foods for pregnant women to keep down." Carlisle paced my living room.

"And how many times have you been pregnant Carlisle?" I crossed my arms.

"I'm not saying I'm the one who is pregnant Bella! Why is everything an argument with you lately?" he ran his hands through his hair.

"I'm not arguing." I shook my head. "I just asked a question. You need to calm down Carlisle. You're stressing out too much, I'm worried about you." I placed my hand on his arm and pulled him down to me. "I'm eating as much as I can. I can't help it if my stomach or the little one doesn't like it at times. The doctor said I'm healthy, just under weight. I should gain it back soon. You were at the same appointment I was, right?" I smiled.

"Yeah." He let out an exasperated sigh. "It's just that, I'm a doctor and I can't help my own pregnant girlfriend!" he was pacing again.

"Carlisle! Please, you stress me out more doing this!" I motioned to his pacing.

"Sorry." He sat back down and placed his hands on my stomach.

"We have so much to do. We need to find a house to raise our little one in, we need to think of names, we need to think of furniture, we need to think of room colors, we need to think of Godparents." He shook his head.

"One thing at a time. I didn't even know we were looking for a new place to live." I looked at him.

"Of course. This place is too small for all three of us." He looked at me funny.

"All three of us?" I questioned.

"Bella, of you think I'm spending a moment away from my new baby or leaving you with all the responsibility you're crazy!" he admonished.

I started crying, he was so sweet.

"It's OK, what did I say?" he worried as he pulled me to him.

"You're just so sweet. I love you so much." I cried as he held me.

"I love you too baby." He squeezed me tightly.

"Alright, are you ready to know what you two are having?" the tech asked us.

"Yes!" Carlisle answered for both of us and I just nodded my head.

"Alright, let's get started." She took some pictures and hummed and clucked her tongue.

"Carlisle, you're a doctor, don't you know what in the hell is going on?" I demanded growing impatient.

"Bella, calm down. This is her profession. I just read the results and confer after they're done. Hush woman." He chuckled and I huffed.

"OK, see this here?" she asked. Carlisle was beaming and shaking his head yes and I was shaking mine no! "Bella, she pointed to the area and showed me exactly what I need to be seeing and when she saw mw recognize and smile she proceeded. "Congratulations! Dr. Cullen and Ms. Swan, you're having a girl!"

I started crying again, more like sobbing.

"Are you OK?" Carlisle helped me sit up after he cleaned the goo off my stomach.

"Yeah, I'm just so happy. I wanted a girl. I'm so happy to be having your baby!" I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him, hard.

"Let's go tell everyone and celebrate." He smiled.

"Let's go celebrate first and tell everyone over dinner tonight." I smiled.

"Oh, I like your way of thinking. Sounds good!" he practically dragged me to the car.

All afternoon we went at it like bunny rabbits, I don't know how either one of us was able to walk.

We arrived at the restaurant where everyone was waiting and shaking their heads.

"So I'm guessing it's not an alien?" Emmett snarked and Rose hit him upside the head.

"No! It's not." Carlisle shook his head with his permasmile.

"Well?" Charlie asked.

"It's a girl!" I practically yelled!

Rose and Renee jumped up and hugged me.

"We're so happy for you!" Rose smiled at me.

"Any name's yet?" Renee asked.

"No, we've decided we're going away this weekend to discuss everything." I shrugged.

"Hey! Where's Alice and Jasper?" I asked.

"We haven't seen them in a couple of days. I'm guessing they're fucking their brains out before she leaves." Rose shrugs.

"Ugh! I bet your right. Horny things." I roll my eyes.

"Yeah you'd know nothing about that?" Rose smirks.

I gasped.

We enjoyed dinner, talking about names and places to live. Everyone was happy we decided to live together and that we were going to make this work.

When I came back from the bathroom, Jasper and Alice were there and Carlisle was on his knee with an open box and a ring and a smile so big I thought his face might break.

As I approached he said two words "Will You?"

"Yes!" Was my simple reply.
