Chapter 1

BPOV

Thursday: August 14, 2008, Age 24

I could not believe it. Something was not right. I knew that there was something going on…I could feel it in my gut.

It had been Edward and me my whole life. We grew up together…our parents were best friends…we had the same circle of friends including his brother and sister and their significant others.

Edward and I were married right out of high school. We wanted to go away to college together as husband and wife.

Our friends were supportive but our parents were doubtful that we would be able to make it work at such a young age. They knew we were very much in love but they also knew the hardships of making a marriage work.

However, we could not be apart. Therefore, we did it. We were married a month after our high school graduation.

We always had a very healthy sex life. When I say healthy…I mean…very healthy…as in we were never able to get enough of one another.

We always made time for each other and for our sexual appetites.

Edward and I had been married for seven years this past June. We did not celebrate our anniversary…he had to work. Nor did we celebrate his birthday…also in June. His sister, Alice, and I, threw him a surprise party…that he did not show up for…allegedly also because of work.

He had been cold and distant…for a while now…and I suppose I only had myself to blame. You see, we had been trying to get pregnant for the last year and a half. Okay, let me rephrase that…I was trying to get pregnant for the last year and a half. Edward did not seem interested in it anymore.

We decided we would get pregnant after we had both finished college. However, we still continued to put it off and I was frustrated. Finally, Edward came home one day and said he wanted us to start trying. I was the happiest I had ever been.

Edward went to medical school and finished in the top of his class. Sure, he studied all the time and I was lonely…but I knew the price we would pay for his dreams. I was fine with it. I had my own dreams…of becoming a famous writer. Nevertheless, I put those on hold to make a comfortable home for him. I graduated from college, but I still had yet to do anything with my degree.

The plan was for me to be the caretaker of the house…the children…and to be the doting doctor's wife. Edward had this perfect vision of wanting what his parents had. His father would go to work every day and was one of the town's most beloved doctors. Esme stayed home and provided a happy, loving environment for their children and Carlisle.

Edward seemed as if that was what he expected for us as well.

As long as I had my Edward, I was okay with that. But when I finally talked him into starting our family…we discovered a problem. We were having a very hard time getting pregnant. We went to see a specialist and he ran many tests. They discovered that I had only one ovary and that it was a lazy ovary. The doctor said this should not make it impossible for me to get pregnant but it could be quite difficult.

We left the office discouraged but Edward told me that we would do whatever necessary to have a baby. It was fun at first. We were going at it like bunnies. He was coming home whenever I called and asked him to because I was ovulating. I would go to the hospital and 'surprise' him. It was as if we were teenagers all over again.

Edward always had a very healthy sexual appetite. Even when we had sex for the first time…both being, virgins…it was different from experiences I heard about from other women. Edward lasted much longer than I had heard guys last their first time. I did not think he was ever going to stop.

While it was painful at first…he was so gentle that the experience was incredible for me and I did cum our first time together…where I have heard most virgin girls do not have that experience their first time. I felt very lucky…blessed…and satisfied with my Edward.

I never could figure out what Edward saw in me. When I would express this to him, he would tell me I was being absurd and that I did not see myself clearly. He told me that I was the most beautiful girl in the world…his girl to be exact…and that I was his best friend.

I could not remember the last time he said that to me though.

Things came to a head a few weeks ago.

Flashback

I had called and asked him to come home because I was ovulating. He made it through the door and there was no foreplay…nothing. He just pulling at my clothes…not even offering me a kiss. We had been rough before but he was kind of hurting me this time.

I pushed him off me. "Edward what's wrong with you?"

"I'm just giving you what you want Bella. All you fucking care about is getting pregnant so let's get to it. I need to fuck you so I can get back to work. I do have a fucking job and people who depend on me!"

The tears stung my eyes. But I did not want to let them fall…Edward hated it when I cried. He always told me it broke his heart. Even though he had just hurt me…something he was doing a lot lately…I did not want to hurt him in return.

"I depend on you too," I said in a shaky voice that did not mask the fact I was about to cry…as I had hoped.

He rolled off me. "Jesus Bella…are you going to fucking cry? The water works are not going to work today sweetheart. Are we going to do this or can I go back to work?"

"Just go," I sobbed as I rolled over and away from him.

"Fine, don't wait up. I'm working a double shift." Then he got up from the bed and left me there to cry.

Of course, he was working a double shift. For the last few months, he always worked a double shift. It felt as if he was avoiding being around me.

Something did not feel right. I had been suspicious for a while that he was cheating on me…but I was too afraid to find out the truth. I made a decision about four hours later and I decided to go to the hospital and apologize…to try to work things out after what had just happened.

Only…when I drove to the hospital…I did not see my husband's car in the parking lot. I walked in to the nurses' station and asked them to page Dr. Edward Cullen. We always had to distinguish between Edward and Carlisle or both of them would show up if they only paged 'Dr. Cullen' since he and his father both worked here.

The nurse looked up at me and said, "Do you mean Dr. Carlisle Cullen?"

"No, I mean Edward."

"Oh well, I'm sorry. Dr. Edward Cullen got off from his shift two hours ago. But I can page Dr. Carlisle for you…he's Edward's father."

I could not move…breathe…or speak. He got off two hours ago. Where the hell was he?

Oh…my…god…he was cheating on me.

My fears were real…and why didn't this bitch know who I was?

"Miss? Would you like me to page his father?"

I shook my head. "No, that won't be necessary."

I turned and left.

End flashback.

I did not question Edward about it because I knew he would get defensive and probably not tell me the truth. The next day I went to lunch with Alice and Rosalie.

Alice was Edward's twin sister, while Rosalie was married to his brother Emmett. Alice was married to Rose's brother, Jasper. I told them about what had been going on in my marriage. They both assured me that it all had to be a misunderstanding because Edward would never do something like that to me.

I still had my doubts and suspicions.

After lunch that day, I made the choice that led me to where I was at today. We had a radio show here in Seattle on my favorite channel in the mornings. The two disc jockeys on the show always did a segment on Thursdays called Rose Wars with Wendy and Adam.

In this segment, they would call someone's significant other to find out if they were cheating or not. The woman, Wendy always called the person in question and offered them a dozen free red roses. She would then tell them that they would be sent to the person of their choice. She then got the person to give her a name for the card and a greeting for her to write on there.

All you had to do was email the morning show with your story and Wendy and Adam would read over them and decide whom they wanted to pick each week.

I emailed them the same day that I had my lunch with Rose and Alice. Monday they called and said that I had been picked for this week's show. This was it. I was going to find out if Edward was cheating on me or not.

I was extremely nervous. I had hardly eaten since Monday when I found out I would be on this week's show. I had to know and finally I was going to get my answer. I was scared. While one part of me tried to tell myself I was being, silly…the other part of me was telling me a woman always knew and something was definitely off about Edward.

I called the radio station and waited for them to bring me into the show. Once they got to me…I had to explain my story to everyone. I had to talk about the email that I wrote and why I suspected my husband of cheating. It was humiliating to talk about this with strangers.

I did not know what else to do.

Adam spoke to me, "Okay Bella…Wendy is going to call Edward and offer him the flowers. Now no matter who he sends them to…I am going to have to cut in and tell him you've been listening and why we're doing this. Okay? Are you ready?"

I took a deep breath. "I'm ready," I said shakily. One way or another, this was all going to be out in the open soon. I was just praying it went the way I wanted it to go.

They dialed my husband's cell phone number. "Hello?"

"Yes can I speak to Edward please?" Wendy said to him.

"This is Edward."

"Hi! This is Cathy from plants and flowers dot com…"

"Listen…I'm a doctor and I'm very busy so I'm really not interested…" he tried to cut her off but she cut him off in return.

"I just want to take a minute of your time Edward. I'll be very quick. I just started a new business and website and you have been randomly selected to receive a dozen free red roses. They can be sent anywhere in the Continental U.S. free of charge.

"You don't have to give me any credit card information…just a name and address of who you want the flowers sent to. All I ask for in return is that you allow me to send you one catalogue. I hope that the person you send the flowers to will be so happy with them that you will come back and use my services again. But if you don't order anything out of the one catalogue that I send you…I will never send you one again. Does that sound good?"

"Wow…a dozen red roses and I can send them to whoever I want?"

"Yes, that's correct."

"And I don't have to give you any credit card information?"

"Nope. They are completely free."

"Well alright…that sounds really good actually."

"Super! So let me just get the name you want put on the card first of all."

"Okay…they're going to go to Lauren."

I covered my hand with my mouth so I would not scream.

"Alright…and is tha n?" Wendy asked as she spelled out Lauren's name.

Lauren was…a nurse at the hospital. She hated me. Edward always told me…that she was harmless. He always said she never hit on him or anything.

What the fuck?

"Yes that's correct."

"Edward, what would you like for the greeting to say?"

"Um…just put…'thinking of you and I can't wait to see you tonight'."

He told me he was doing another double shift tonight.

Adam cut in now. I had dropped the phone from my hands and wrapped my arms around myself. I was down on the floor gasping for air.

I could only hear the radio in the other room. Adam said, "Well…actually Edward…this is Wendy and Adam from 97.1 WBJ and we can send the roses to Lauren…but you should know that your wife, Bella has been listening in this whole time. She called us because she suspected that you were cheating on her and we offered to send the roses to see who you would send them to. And I have to say buddy…what do you have to say for yourself?"

"Bella?" I could barely hear Edward say my name because he said it so softly.

"Bella…are you still with us sweetie?" Wendy said.

I could hear all three of them calling my name but I could not move.

After a few minutes…I heard nothing.

Shortly after my ears started tuning everything out, I did hear tires squeal. Alice and Rose barged through the front door and were kneeling in front of me. "Oh God. Rose she looks awful!" Alice cried.

"Bells…Bells…come on snap out of it honey. We heard the radio show. Sweetie. Come on talk to us Bella!" Rose said to me.

"We need to get her out of here. Judging from the way Edward hung up so quickly…he's probably on his way here now and I don't think she's ready to see him."

I was slightly aware of being helped up off the ground…and walked out to Rose's car. I just felt…numb.

More tires squealed as they pulled into our driveway. My husband got out of his Volvo, slamming the door.

"Where are you going with her? I need to talk to her." He said to them.

"No you don't! You are lucky I am more concerned with Bella right now you no good piece of shit! If I wasn't in such a hurry to get her out of here and away from you I would kick your sorry ass myself!" Rose spat at him.

Edward turned to his sister, "Ali…come on…let me talk to her please. Please, sis?" He begged.

"Don't you sis me! Edward you are a fucking idiot! Does she look like she's in any shape to talk to anyone? Just back off! You've done enough," Alice said to him.

The girls pushed me into the backseat of the car and shut the door. Rose got in the driver's seat while Alice hopped into the back to hold me while I sobbed into her chest.

Rose locked the doors so Edward could not open them. It did not stop him from trying. Edward banged on the window, "Bella please. I am begging you. Give me a chance to explain. Please don't leave like this."

I did not look at him. I just let the tears fall. It was the first time I cried since I heard him say her name instead of mine.

Why did he do this to me?

He was my everything.
