The Little Unexpected Things

Not A Blissful Time

Bella's P.O.V

I run my hands down my black cocktail dress and pout. I recently just got this dress and I was so looking forward to wearing it more than once. Unfortunately, this dress won't even fit by the time I want to wear it again.  I make some last check ups on my hair and makeup and with a little blow I walk out of my room. My brother is sitting on the couch watching the football game, wearing a back suit and a beer in hand and an open bag of chips on the table.

His eyes drift to me when I walk in and back to the TV. I roll my eyes and cross my arms over my chest. "Are you really gonna act like a child for all the duration of my pregnancy?"

He shrugs.

"You're a child."

"You're having a child!" He snapped.

"I know! And I can't deal with your childish behavior right now!" He sits back and folds his arms over his chest. Yeah, he's acting really childish. "Em, can you please stop being mad at me. It's done, I'm pregnant. That's all."

He sighs. "I'm just having a hard time. I mean, what will happen if things don't work out."

"Why wouldn't it work out?"

"Bella, having a baby is no piece of cake and you know how men are, we bolt at our very first opportunity."

"Yeah, but you know how Edward is. He doesn't bolt. He's all on board on this whole thing, which I would expect him to because he is the one responsible for this little thing."

He crosses his arm over his chest. "You're right, but don't expect me to tell Mom and Dad you're pregnant. That's your job."

"I know, but you know how they are. They're gonna be fine."

Emmett laughs. "Yeah, I wouldn't hope so."

I frown. "What do you mean? You told me I should be more afraid of telling Edward than telling Mom and Dad."

Emmett snorts. "That's because I thought it was someone you've been secretly dating and who will put a ring on that finger. I thought you were just fucking with us when you didn't want to tell us who the father was just for the suspense. You and Edward are not gonna get married, so... Good luck. You know how old school they are."

Fuck, he's right.

"We'll get there when we get there," I say. I sit down beside him and glaze at his beer. I'm dying for one right now. I slightly reach for it and he snatches it away. "One sip won't be bad!"

"Edward will have my ass if you even sniff the damn beer, hell no. Go drink water."

I groan. "I've only been pregnant a month and a half and I'm all fed up with it."

Rosalie walks out wearing a killer red dress. I hate her now. She is obviously so beautiful with a super model body and by the time I start growing, she'll remain beautiful and I will become a cow.

"Welcome to motherhood. You two stooges ready? Alice will flip if we're thirty seconds late."

Emmett stands up and slowly walks toward her. "Damn babe, you're so fucking hot."

Rosalie blushes and looks at my brother through her eyelashes. "Thanks, babe." They share a heated kiss. Of course, my brother can't keep his dick in his pants for long. Maybe I should leave the room. They finally pull away and Rosalie turns to me. "Aw, Bella you're so beautiful! You have that motherly glow already!" She squeals and walks toward me with her arms out in front of her. When I'm within her reach, she pinches my cheeks and sighs happily. "I can't wait to be an auntie. A baby! Finally, a baby to be walking around and making a mess."
