How Do I Follow My Heart When Its Torn in Two?
A/N I changed the plot a little, I will update it again when I figure out how its going to end! :D
KATE
Chapter 1 Finding Kate
Edward's POV
I've gone 80 years with a black,starless sky. 80 years without a light to guide my way. 80 years without a purpose. I've spent 80 long years waiting for her.The one that will give me light. The one that will give me purpose. The one I can give my entire existence to. I finally find her. Shooting fast across the sky, silencing every cry I have ever had. Alice tells me her name....Kate. My beloved Kate. I Love You.
Bartlett High School.
Anchorage, Alaska
That's where I find her. Sitting across the cafeteria by herself, trying not to be noticed. But I notice. Its impossible for me not to. Her cheeks flush red when she sees me staring. So beautiful.I can't stand not being near her...Rosalie warns me not to, but I go over to where she's sitting.
Don't go! She can't know about us, she thinks.
"Don't worry," I whisper quietly. "She won't. I have myself under control."
She sees me coming over and quickly looks back down at the table.
"Hello." I say in my polite vampire voice.
"Um.Hi," I hear her say.
I can't hear anything else, however. Odd. Maybe I'll have to wait a little longer to hear her thoughts.
"My name is Edward Cullen. May I have the pleasure of knowing your name?"
"I-I'm Kate Keslington" she replies, blushing.
"May I sit?"
"Uh.Sure." She scrambles to move her books."Here you go.
I sit, and then tense up when a person runs by the table,blowing Kate's scent towards me.
For some reason, when the breeze brushes past her, I don't feel the urge to kill her. Not like I have with other humans. I don't smell anything coming from her. No scent at all.Odd. What a strange human.
I wonder...Ah! I still can't read her mind. What is wrong with me?
I do a quick check to see if I can read the other children's minds in the cafeteria.
Yep I can:
Who is she?
Why is he sitting by her?
Oh, I hope he looks over this way.
I want to get to know her.
She's pretty.
He better keep his mouth shut.
This last thought was from Rosalie.
I turn slightly to wink at her. She seems enraged by my gesture.Oh well.
I turn back to Kate.
"So, Kate. What brings you to Anchorage?"
"Well.er. My dad is in the military and I move every 4 years."
"4 years? That's a very short time." I have this strange feeling that when she leaves, I will follow.
"Yeah.It is.Its not a very long time to get to know anybody."
"Its enough to get to know me...If you want." Please want to.
"Okay," She replies, clearing her throat."Let's start with..."
She hesitates, and looks around the table searching.
She reaches in her bag and brings out a piece of paper and pen.
"I'll write it down, cause I don't want anyone to hear."
"Hear what?"
She writes something down on a piece of paper.
She slides it across to me, and looks me in the eye.
"Don't lie to me Edward," she says."I know."
Since I still can't read her mind, I look at her puzzled.
"What do you know?"
"Just read it."
I look back at Alice and she nods her head.
I open the paper.
It reads:
Edward. What are you? I'll know if you're lying to me.
Confused, I write back, What exactly do you know?
She writes, I know…that…you’re a vampire.
Hiding my shock, I write back calmly, And what makes you think that?
She replies,
Because... I used to date one.
I hope you like it!

Chapter 9 James…Again
Kate’s POV
Previously on How Do I Follow My Heart…
There is a dark figure sitting on my porch.
Edward sighs as the porch light turns on. It illuminates the mysterious figure that I have come to dream about.
We both get out of the car and I walk forward to get a better look.
“Ah. Kate.” The figure says. “You‘ve found another one I see.”
He steps off the porch to place a hand on my cheek. He softly kisses my lips.
“Hey, James,” I whisper.
The last thing I hear before James kisses me again is the sound of Edward getting into the car and speeding away…
….
When I wake up next to James, that is when I realize that this is where I was truly meant to be. I don’t care about anything or anyone else. I can’t think about anyone else except him and me… Forever…
Forever, I think again. Absolutely and positively forever…I love him.
I can’t help thinking that I’m forgetting something, but all I can think about is the amazing night we had spent together after I got home. I don’t remember anything that happened before I spotted him standing there, an everlasting light upon my porch. He took me into his arms. He had brought me into my house, though I don’t even remember unlocking the door. He kissed me right there in the living room, but I took his hand and led him into my room. I remember the feel of his cold stone body on mine as he gently pressed me to the bed.
My head scrunches up as I try to remember what had happened before that amazing moment when I spotted him on my porch. Nothing.
“Don’t worry,” he said softly. “We used to do this all the time, remember?”
“Oh, I remember,” I replied as I pulled his lips to mine. “I remember.”
One thing had led to another, and here I am now, laying right next to this angel of mine. There were broken pieces of wood from my bedpost and torn sheets and pillows scattered everywhere. My clothes were ripped and more-or-less ruined. I was in a state of euphoria until James said, “So. Who’s that other vamp you were hanging out with?”
Crap! I had forgotten all about Edward. “Oh, he’s nothing. Just a guy that asked me on a date.”
“He can’t be that bad, because he brought your car back. But anyway, I just I thought I was more your type.” he pulled me closer to him.
“Oh, well you are-of course- its just I didn’t think that you were coming back.” I held his face in my hands. “I’m yours forever. You know that.”
“You better be. ”He smiled a little and kissed me. After a while, I broke the kiss so that I could clean up. I grabbed some clean clothes and a towel and went to the bathroom. As I was taking off whatever clothes that weren’t ripped off my body, I noticed that my stomach was swollen a little Thinking that I just needed to do a couple of sit-ups, I got into the shower and decided to do them when I get out. About fifteen minutes later, I get out and I fumble around for my clothes because its too foggy to see anything. My hand finally finds something cold and I hold onto it. It turns out that it was James’s hand.
“Ready for round three? Or four? Which one was it, cause I don’t remember; it was all just a blur.”
“I don’t know,” I said, playing along “Eighteen maybe?”
He tries to pull me into his chest, but something is blocking me. Unable to see what it is, I open the door to let some steam out. As the bathroom clears, I try to make out what was blocking me. I make a low gasp as I realize that is was my stomach.
“What happened?”
“I don’t know. I’m not really sure, but somehow, my stomach has grown more than an inch larger than before I first got into the shower. ” I reply.
“Oh no.” He says shocked.
“What?” I ask confused.
“I don’t know. I think-I can’t. I gotta go.” He heads for the door.
“Wait! ”I cry. “Are you coming back?”
He stops at the front doorway and looks back at me.
“Sorry,” he whispers and then he’s gone.
Though it hurt that he left me in my time of need, I couldn’t say that I blame him. Who would want some weird fat freak that doesn’t know what’s going on with her body?
I decide to get dressed because I don’t want to think about what my bump might mean. As I’m doing that, I decide that I might as well head over to the Cullen’s house. Maybe they can give me some answers, not that I deserve them.
I expect that with what I did to Edward, I may not be welcome back there anymore. But then, who else can I count on? Certainly not James.
I go outside to discover that Edward really did bring my car back. I could only imagine how difficult it could have been for him to come back to the place that he practically got dumped. Anyway, I find my keys hidden under my plant in front of my door where I usually leave them. I get in the car hoping that I remember the way to their house. Fighting back tears, I head up their driveway and walk to their front door.
When I see that Carlisle is the one that answers, I instinctively cross my arms in front of me.
“Carlisle,” I say softly. “I need to speak to him.”
“I‘m not sure that that’s such a good idea.” He responds. “Why don‘t you just leave me a message and I’ll make sure that he gets it.”
“Carlisle” I say, pleading. “Please.”
“Okay, ”He says. “Come on in. Edward’s upstairs. I‘ll get him.”
I nod and I head into the living room where everyone gives me harsh stares except Alice and Esme. I avert my eyes from them as I wait for Edward to enter. When he does, he crosses to living room to the other side without so much as a glance towards me.
I stare at Edward as he raises his eyes to meet my gaze.
“As you know, Edward, I love you. Very much. But I also love him. And I guess that fate is trying to get back at me for hurting you last night, because James left me again this morning. I don‘t know if he‘s coming back, and frankly, I don‘t think I want him to because I see how much it hurts you. If I knew that you cared so much about me that it hurt you to see me with him, I wouldn’t have accepted him back into my life. But what brings me here in front of you right now is, well, desperation. That and confusion and anger, and just my feeling awfully horrible and wretched about how this all turned out. If you hate me I’ll understand and I won’t question it. Its all my fault and I‘m sorry, okay? I‘m sorry, I‘m sorry, I‘m sorry, I‘m sorry, I‘m sorry, I‘m sorry, I‘m sorry. I‘m so sor-”
Edward came up to hug me because I had started to cry. “Shh. Its okay. Its fine.” I try to break away from his hug with no success.
“No, its not okay.” I say. “And it never will be. It will never be the same. Not ever again.”
“Why won‘t it?” He asks. Everyone is really staring at me now.
“Because.” I say. As I step away from him, he lets me go and I drop my arms that were still concealing my stomach.
“Because?” He says, not paying attention to my bump
I lift my shirt a little and everyone stares at my stomach.
I hear a low gasp and somewhere behind me, a glass breaks.
“Because, Edward. I think I’m pregnant.” -

Chapter 10 Preggers!
Previously on How Do I Follow My Heart....
Edward came up to hug me because I had started to cry. “Shh. Its okay. Its fine.” I try to break away from his hug with no success.
“No, its not okay.” I say. “And it never will be. It will never be the same. Not ever again.”
“Why won‘t it?” He asks. Everyone is really staring at me now.
“Because.” I say. As I step away from him, he lets me go and I drop my arms that were still concealing my stomach.
“Because?” He says, not paying attention to my bump
I lift my shirt a little and everyone stares at my stomach.
I hear a low gasp and somewhere behind me, a glass breaks.
“Because, Edward. I think I’m pregnant.”
"Pregnant?!" Rosalie cries. I'm pretty sure that it was her that broke the glass.
"How is that possible? Edward I warned you not to! I told you that there would be consequences for your actions , and now look at what you did! You went and got a human pregnant! Now how are we supposed to-"
"Whoa! Wait a minute, Rosalie! One, I never actually said I was pregnant, I just said that I thought I was pregnant. Two, I'm not even sue that its possible for a human to get pregnant by a vampire...so chill out."
Rosalie seemed to relax slightly as she thought about what I sad.
"I'm sorry to say this, but you're wrong Kate. In the past, there have been reports of human women having half-vampire offspring. I'll admit that its not very popular because its fairly easy for us vampires to lose control, but it is entirely possible. Well, only if the human is a female, anyway."
"So What you're saying is.." I say slowly, letting it sink in.
"What you're saying, is that I might be pregnant? Oh my God! Please tell me I'm wrong! Please deny everything that I'm saying! Tell me I'm just being paranoid! I'm only 17! I can't have a kid! Espcially not a half-vampire one! Oh, God, this is too much! Please, PLEASE, PLEASE tell me you're joking. Tell me I'm wrong when I have a horrible feeling that I'm not! Please just give me a little hope. Don't take that away from me...." I start to cry. I mean, I NEVER in a million years wanted to be a mom! I NEVER EVER wanted kids!
"I'm sorry," Carlisle says, soothingly. "But I just can't tell you that. I'm Sor-"
"Don't you dare say you're sorry! Sorry doesn't fix...this! Sorry doesn't fix whats going on in my belly....Sorry doesn't help me any more than you telling me that there is ice-cream in the house.To me. "Sorry" is completely irrelevent....I'm sorry, I just don't know what to do. I can't raise a half-baby-vampire by meself! I don't even know HOW!"
Esme decides to pipe up."Who said you were going to be alone? We got you into this mess, and we are going to be there to help you out."
"You just don't understand..." I say, looking at Edward. I knew that he knew.
"What is there to understand? We love you and we'll help you out, not matter what.You could be carrying my little grandaughter or grandson in there." She puts her gentle hands on my stomach, and as she does this, Edward makes a pained grunt.
"Hey. Wait a second," Alice says. She moves to the window."Someone's coming. Its another vampire"
"James?"I whisper.
"Who's James?" Alice asks.
I turn my gaze from Alice to meet Edward's. His stare is burning through my soul. Its gone on long enough. Its time to spill the beans. But then I decide to change the subject.
"Look Esme, I don't think that I can let you take care of it...Its not right..."
"Nonsense! We'll all show this little baby what its like to be a Cullen. He or she is our family after all..."
"No, Esme," I say as I try to pull away from her. "Thats just it..." I pull my my eyes away from Edward's betrayed,and searing gaze to look around at the family's confused ones.
"Look, I have something to say..." I start. The doorbell rings , and Emmett gets up to answer it.
"The child is not Edward's. Its..."
"Mine." James says from the doorway.
Everyone turns to see Emmett leading James into the livingroom.
A shocked silence fills the room. Alice hisses. Edward sighs.
Emmett walks back to stand beside Rosalie, and I turn around to face James.
"Hey, James. I think I'm pregnant." I say to him. I move my hands so that he can see my stomach.
He takes one look at it, and lunges. -
