Chapter 10


After I got a clean bill of health, and after a barrage of questions, they finally let me go home, but not until after Charlie got here. He gathered me in his arms and cradled me to his chest.

"My little baby girl, I can't believe this happened to you. If I had known, I never would have sent you up here." He then looked over at Edward.

"I owe you and your brothers a huge thank you. It could have been a lot worse if you hadn't been there."

"Chief Swan, I have to be honest with you, Bella and I are dating, and I was coming over to see her tonight, and Emmett and Jasper was dropping me off. When we got in the driveway, we saw Felix's car out front and then we heard Bella scream. We're going to have to replace her bedroom door though." His face turned red.

"Don't worry about it, Edward, you helped my daughter out, so the least I can do is replace her door."

Charlie went with me to pick up my final paycheck. Even though Felix had been fired and was in jail right now awaiting trial, the thought of working at the park ever again made me cringe. I didn't know if I would ever be safe again. The slightest noise made me jump.

I was curled up on the sofa in my safe little house in Forks, and I knew Charlie was at the station filling out paperwork, but I heard the key turn in the kitchen door, and I screamed, cowering under a blanket.

"Jesus Christ, Bella, are you trying to give me a heart attack?!" I would recognize that voice anywhere, the smooth voice I would walk through fire for.

"Edward? How did you get a key?"

"Charlie gave me one. It was the one Jacob gave back to him."

My heart was thudding inside my chest, but knowing I was safe again it was slowly returning to normal. It had been almost a week, and I was still jittery. Edward came over to the couch and got under the thick blanket with me, wrapping his arms around me. I stiffened at first, until I realized he was just trying to hold me, and then I relaxed.

"Where's Charlie?" he asked.

"Police station." I lay back on the sofa, trying to find something on TV worth watching. I heard a car pull in the driveway, and Edward pulled back.

"Stay with me, please," I begged.

"It's Charlie, I don't want him thinking I'm trying to hurt you," Edward said, his eyes pleading.

"Charlie loves you, he won't think that." The kitchen door opened and I heard my dad call out.

"Bells?"

"I here, Dad," I said, curling up in Edward's arms. Charlie came in, carrying a pizza.

"Hello, Chief Swan," Edward said.

"Edward. I stopped for a pizza on the way home, I didn't think you'd be up to cooking, are you staying for dinner, Edward?"

"Sure, if that's okay."

"You can invite your brothers too if you want."

"There won't be enough," Edward joked. "They could eat a whole pizza by themselves." Charlie chuckled appreciatively. He then looked at me.

"Bells? Are you feeling okay? You look a little green." As if on cue I ran for the kitchen sink, where I was violently ill. Edward held my hair back. They both stared at me in concern.

"I'm fine," I insisted.

"Well okay, but if it gets worse I'm taking you to see a doctor," Charlie said. I nodded.

It didn't get any better. Every morning for the next week I was violently ill first thing in the morning. Charlie was concerned and made an appointment with Carlslie. I refused to go to any other doctor. I trusted Carlslie. He had me laying on the table and stuck a needle in my arm, leaving me alone for awhile while he went to the lab to get the results. When he came back in, Charlie was with him, followed by Edward.

"So what's the verdict, Doc? Am I dying?" I asked in concern.

"Bella, you're fine, you're not dying, but you are pregnant." My heart thudded to a stop. I could see Charlie's face turning colors. Edward turned pale.

"I'll kill that son of a bitch," Charlie spat out, but Carlslie put his hand up.

"Wait, Charlie. There's reason to believe that this is Edward's child. Edward told me that he was with Bella the night before she was raped. We won't know anything until the baby is born and we can do a DNA test on it."

I started to cry. I couldn't help it, I had been so stupid as to not refill my prescription. Even though Edward and I had discussed this, we had never even factored in my rape. How would he feel if he knew he was raising someone else's baby?

"Is there anyway you can test before then?" Edward asked.

"Well we can do an amnio test, but it's slightly dangerous and isn't as accurate. The best thing is to wait 9 months and then do the test."

Charlie just shook his head. This was turning out to be the worst summer of my life, and it wasn't even over yet.
