Tears fell from Blanche's eyes as she crumbled onto the bathroom floor. A tiny pink test and her cell phone lay on the floor in front of her. Edward was furiously packing their bags to return to Forks, but all she could do was cry. The moment she discovered the truth about her upset stomach she felt a sense of pride and happiness. Yet... Edward wanted to... To get rid of their child. Called the baby an it. A monster. He was currently shouting panickedly on the phone with Carlisle. The more she heard the more her sadness became anger.

"No." She stood shakingly on her legs as she glared at her immortal husband.

"What? Blanche are you okay?" Edward was instantly at her side in fear that the 'monster' growing inside her had harmed her.

"I said no, Eddie. I don't want an abortion." Blanche was firm even with the tears in her eyes.

"Blanche, baby." Edward sighed, "This ... This thing. It isn't normal. It isn't safe. It could kill you. It WILL kill you. I can't lose you."

"It's a baby, Eddie. Our baby. Our child. Part of you and part of me. We don't know anything about it, so yes it's scary. Yes it's a mystery. But we will figure this out. Please, Eddie. I want this. I want a family with you."

"We have a family. Carlisle and Esme, Alice and Jasper, Rose and Emmett. That's our family. I can't lose you. I refuse."

"And I refuse to lose our child. Don't make me chose, Edward. Because I will. You know how I feel about this. I was ready to give this up to be your wife because we thought it wasn't possible. But it is. And now I can't give this chance up." Blanche narrowed her eyes at the vampire before her.

The dark look in her eyes made Edward wish he could hear her thoughts. What was she thinking? How could she want this? A monster? How? The desperation on his face made her eyes soften and she caressed his cheek.

"Eddie, I love you. I know you think of yourself as a monster. I know you do. But you know how I see you. You know what I believe. You have done horrible things. There is no denying that. There is blood on your hands. You took human lives, but the lives you took? I would have done the same thing. The sins you committed saved innocents. You're no monster. You're a hero in my eyes. Like... Like the Punisher. Like Deadpool. A dark hero, but still a hero. This child... This child is a part of you. And I love you with everything I have. Everything I am. This child is the start of a new adventure with you. A new journey for us to take together. We can do this, Eddie. I know we can. Please, baby." Blanche pressed a kiss to his cheek and the feel of her tears falling down her face and onto his chin made him tense, "When you told me what you were that day... I already knew. I knew going into those woods that you were a vampire. Yet, I knew you were no true threat to me. I felt it in my heart, in my very soul. I knew you weren't a true monster. Just misunderstood. I forgive you for every mistake you have ever made and will for every mistake you will make. Granted, once I am turned I will take full advantage and kick your ass, but I will forgive you."

Edward closed his eyes and took an unneeded breath. His mind swam with the memories they had created together. The times this strange human woman made him rethink everything he thought he knew. The day she slapped him for acting like an ass when he tried to switch classes. The day he saved her life and she told him he wasn't human, but she would find a way to kill him if he ever touched her again (without permission). The day they played baseball and she insisted on riding on his back so she could participate. The day she snapped on Rose for being a hateful brat. The day she stood up for him and his soul in front of the Volturi Kings. The day she stabbed herself in the leg to save Seth and him. This woman was fierce. From her attitude to her compassion. She welcomed him and his family the second she met them. She didn't hesitate for a second when she discovered the truth. She truly loved them. Truly and deeply loved him. He didn't need his gift to know that.

So when Blanche took his hand and pressed it to her belly... When he felt his offspring move inside his wife... He started to feel at peace. The thought of accomplishing the impossible with her made Edward Cullen's fears nearly disappear. He still held a fear he might lose her, but her words brought sense to him. If anyone could bring a hybrid child into this world it would be Blanche Cullen. A small smile touched his lips and he kissed the side of her head.

"I am scared."

"I know you are. I am too."

"I can't lose you."

"I will fight to stay with you." Blanche wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him deeply.

The two would have quite the road ahead of them, but he believed that if anyone could lead him... It would be her.

* Few weeks later*

"Eddieeeeeeeeeeee!" Blanche whined from their bedroom at the Cullen house.

"Yes, love?" Edward shouted up the stairs getting an annoyed look from Emmett.

"Peanut butter and plasma sandwich!"

"That... That is disgusting." Emmett shivered as Edward pulled a blood bag and a jar of peanut butter out.

"I heard that!"

"How does she hear everything we say?!" Emmett stared at the stairs shocked.

"Baby monitors." Edward said simply as he put the finished sandwich on a plate.

"What? Baby monitors? Then why the hell did you shout?" Emmett glared.

"Because." Edward moved so quickly that by the time Emmett's leg lifted to kick him he was already up the stairs.
