Hello, remember me?

It's been a while, hasn't it. Really sorry about that, uni work and my job take up a lot of my time now, so I've only got a mini update for you. I'll really try and finish this story soon, I think there's a couple more chapters left to write.

But anyway, here is a bit of fluff :)

Chapter Twenty Seven: Off

(EPOV)

Something felt off. Something was wrong.

I'm not sure what it was exactly, but something wasn't right. And it was to do with my wife. You know someone so completely, so wholeheartedly, that you can read every move they make and sense every feeling that they feel. You know somethings going on, you can sense their inner battle. But you have absolutely no idea as to what it is. No clue what's got them in knots. The feelings so unwanted, so alien, it completely throws you off.

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine."

Her short answer did anything but persuade me, but I had trust. I had to believe she'd come and talk to me when she was ready.

I looked into her beautiful brown, doe eyes and smiled at her. "Okay."

A flash of genuine guilt flashed over her eyes.

I kissed her on the forehead. "So, the baby's still keeping Em and Rose up at all hours of the night then?" I changed the subject to comfort her.

A thankful smile graced her lips. "Yeah, Emma's got a good set of lungs on her."

"She obviously takes after her father."

It had been three months since we'd had to rush Rose to the hospital, three months since Emma was born, three months since I made the love of my life, my wife.

Though Emma was a beautiful baby, looks can be deceiving. She was definitely her parents daughter. And none of us have any doubt that she was going to rule the universe when she was older.

Jasper was now a full time partner with me in the family business. Work had eased up and we could easily share the responsibilities and jobs so we both get more time with our other halves. Though for Alice, this meant that Jasper could carry her shopping bags, a task he didn't thoroughly enjoy, but endured it to spend time with his wife.

As clique as it sounded, everything had been perfect up until a few days ago, when Bella had started to become a bit more distant. But I knew she'd come to me when she was ready.

That day finally came a few more days later.

It was late in the night, we were alone in our room. I had her soft body wrapped in my arms, I breathed in her delicious scent. The evening was peaceful and relaxed, though Bella had been slightly anxious.

"I'm sorry." She whispered into the calm night.

My arms tightened around her and I frowned. "What for?"

"For being so...distant. I know we said that we'd always be truly honest with each other, but I just needed some time to process this on my own for a while."

"Process what?" My stomach started to knot. "Bella, whatever it is, we can handle it. I promise you, I'll be with you one hundred percent!"

She buried herself closer into me. "Really?" Her voice was nervous and muffled by my t-shirt.

"Yes."

"Because you were annoyed at Emmett and Rose's baby..."

I stopped breathing.

She slowly looked up at me. Her eyes were worried.

"Wh-what?" I choked. "Are you...?"

She grabbed my hand and climb up from the bed, pulling me with her. She walked to the bathroom and crouched down by one of the cabinets. Pulling open one of the bottom draws, she reached into the back and pulled out a hidden toiletry bag. Clutching at it, she stood and offered it to me.

I gently took it from her hands and carefully unzipped it.

Inside lay three pregnancy tests. All were positive.

I couldn't stop the smile from bursting over my face. I looked up at my pregnant wife and swiftly pulled her too me, hugging her to my body. "We're going to have a baby!"


So sorry about the wait, you guys. And again. I'm not sure when the next update will be but I'll try my best :)
