The Golden Swan // Edward Cullen

Chapter sixty-seven

Brea leaned her head against the window of the car and watched the trees fly by, sadness filled her because it had been days since Edward had spoken to her.

"We're almost home," Edward spoken up.

"Actually can we stop somewhere first, please?" Brea asked, still looking out of the window.

"We don't have time," Edward said.

"Then stop the car.....I think I'm gonna be sick," Brea lied.

Edward sighed....stopping the car, Brea climbed out and rested against the car. Edward jumped out and sped to her.

"Are you okay?" Edward asked.

Brea pushed him away.

"I'm fine," Brea mumbled.

"Where did you want to go?" Edward asked.

"Our place....but we don't have time," Brea sighed.

"As much as I want to, we need to go see Carlisle," Edward said.

Brea dropped her head and climbed back into the car..... resting her head against the window once more.

                      **************

            
It had been two long weeks since Edward and Brea had to rush back home, due to an unexpected surprise....In the span of two weeks Brea's stomach grew, double the size.

Brea sat on the couch....wrapped up in the quilt her mother made for her, reading a book. Edward stood near her but out of reach.... Alice sat on the other side of the room, wanting nothing to do with whatever was inside of Brea. Jasper and Emmett sat in front of the tv, watching football.....Carlisle and Esme stood near the stairs, knowing they were about to get unexpected visitors. Rosalie sat next to Brea....trying to keep her company since Edward didn't want to be close to her.

Suddenly they all heard the familiar loud noise from a truck and motorcycle....The Cullen's quickly surrounded Brea.

"BREA?!" A familiar voice called out.

Brea smiled, knowing who was about to come up the stairs.

"Bella!" Brea said.

The familiar twin turned the corner....unable to see her sister.

"Uh....Brea? Why are the surrounding you?" Bella asked.

All of a sudden Jacob turned the corner....standing near Bella.

"Jake! I'm glad you came! I'm glad you both came," Brea smiled.

Bella and Jacob walked a little closer....they stopped when Rosalie put her hands up.

"Close enough!" Rosalie snapped.

"What's your problem?" Bella asked.

"Rose, it's okay," Brea replied.

Rosalie stepped out of the way....both Jacob and Bela took a step back when they saw Brea.

"You look terrible," Jacob said.

"Have you seen yourself?" Brea asked.

"Ouch," Jacob laughed.

Bella walked up to Brea and sat down next to her.

"Are you gonna tell us what's wrong with you?" Bella asked.

Brea stood up and dropped the quilt....exposing her huge belly.

Suddenly Jacob lunged at Edward.

Before he got any closer to Edward....Brea managed to use some of her strength and sped in front of Jacob, shoving him back.

"YOU DID THIS!" Jacob growled.

"I didn't even know it was possible," Carlisle said, looking over at Bella.

"W-What is it?" Bella asked.

"I'm not sure. Ultrasounds and needles won't penetrate the embryonic sack," Carlisle sighed.

"I can't see it either....let alone Brea's future," Alice mumbled.

"We've been researching legends, but there isn't much to go on. what we do know is it's strong and it's growing fast," Carlisle said.

"What are you waiting for? TAKE IT OUT OF HER!" Jacob yelled.

"This is none of your business, mutt!" Rosalie snapped.

"ROSE! All this fighting isn't good for Brea," Esme spoke up.

"THE FETUS ISN'T GOOD FOR BREA!" Alice yelled.

"Say the word, Alice. Baby! it's just a little baby!" Rosalie replied.

"So we hope," Jasper mumbled.

"Carlisle, you've gotta do something, anything," Jacob begged.

"NO! It's not his decision. It's not any of yours," Brea growled.
