Nessie's POV

Chapter 1

Surprise

This couldn't be happening. Jake and I had only got married one week ago. It was too soon. I couldn't be pregnant. Slowly I sank to my knees and landed with a thud. I heard a knock at the bathroom door.

What would a half-vampire and shape shifters baby turn out like? He would be beautiful I knew that much. But would he be safe? What would be the dominant gene vampire or werewolf? If Jake couldn't handle this what would I do? I wouldn't be able to live through Jake leaving me but I wouldn't be able to live through losing this baby either.

"Ness, you ok?"Jake called "Are you hurt? Nessie are you listening to me?...NESS? Renesmee! If you don't open this door right now, I'm knockin' it down!"

Jake could, no, Jake would handle this. He was tough. He'd looked after me when I was younger. But could he handle being a dad? I would have to tell him and hope for the best. No matter what I'm sure he would love this baby. Right?

"Ok, I'm coming in!" Uh! Jake was so impatient! "I'm giving you two seconds...1..."

Leave it to Jake to ruin my moment. I got to my feet and opened the door to face him; he almost burst through the door grabbing the tops of my arms, and shook me gently

"Renesmee are you ok? Ness? Are you hurt?"

I couldn't answer any of his questions. I just looked into his eyes. What if Jake couldn't handle this? What if he didn't want the baby? A hundred different questions ran through my head.

"Jake, you'd better sit down" I didn't know how I'd get through this, but somehow I had to, I kept my voice even.

"What do you mean sit down? No... What's going on Nessie?" I could hear the anxiety in his voice.

"Jake...I'm...I'm...Pregnant." I whispered the last word.

I tried to read Jake's expression but he was blank, frozen to the spot, looking like he wouldn't move ever again. Five minutes had past; I had to break the silence.

"Jake? Are you ok?" I could hear my voice shaking.

The corners of his mouth began to twitch, slowly pulling up into a huge grin. After what seemed like an eternity he suddenly stood up and wrapped his huge muscled arms round my waist, pulling me into a vice-like hug. I decided it was safe to look up at his face, the grin was still there. Slowly I pulled away from Jake. I could feel the frown on my face but I kept on pulling away.

"Jacob? Are you ok? I usually hated repeating myself to everyone apart from Jacob but for some reason this time it irked me.

"Ness, why wouldn't I be OK?" A look of confusion mixed with concern was creeping across Jake's face.

"Well I just thought you wouldn't want this so soon or something" Great! Now I was mumbling. I wouldn't be surprised if Jake burst with laughter.

"Well, it is but... suppose I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner, at least we're married now, and we won't have to face the wrath of the two furious vampires".

"No Jake it's not that, it's just that...."

"What?" I could see the realisation of what I had thought spread through his face. "You thought I would leave you?" He was growling now but still, I could hear the hurt in his voice. Suddenly his arms were around me again and his lips were crushing mine. After what seemed like forever he broke away but leaned into whisper "I could never leave you Ness."

I could feel the smile spread across my face. We would be like one of those happy families you only see on TV. Jake saw the smile on my face and smiled back. This was perfect. Suddenly a really scary thought occurred to me. How would we tell Mum and Dad? The perfect picture disappeared from my head. I looked up at Jake again. My hand was being held, by his own, to his face. He had been watching my thoughts. A mask of horror appeared on Jakes face.

"Where did he go? Why did he disappear? Ness, where did the baby go?"

"We need to go see Mum and Dad" I watched Jakes face. The confused frown came back. "We need to tell them the news" I said it like there could be nothing scarier.

Laughing at my reaction, Jacob grabbed my hand without another word and pulled me out of our cottage, past Mum and Dads cottage, and towards Carlisle and Esme's huge house. He didn't let go of me till we got to the front door of the house, finally straightening himself up. I decided to save the front door by opening it myself. Once we were inside we walked as slowly as possible to the living room. There was going to be murder. I looked up at Jake hoping that he would do the talking. Jake saw the hope in my eyes, smiled a quick smile then called "Bella? Edward?" they were there in a flash.

"Hey hunny, what's up?"Mum asked looking at me.

"We've got some great news." Jake answered sounding totally relaxed. How could he be relaxed with dad about to find out the news?

"WHAT!? YOU STUPID MUT!" Great, Dad had read Jacobs thoughts. I stepped in front of Jake trying to protect him from my raging father.

"Edward? What's wrong?" Mum was worried now. I would be in the way if dad made a leap for Jake. He wouldn't hurt me of course but the thought still scared mum silly.

"Nessie's pregnant, Bells, you're going to be a grandma!!!." Jake, who had now disintegrated into a puddle of goofiness, said it like he had just won an award. This thrilled me for some unknown reason.

"NESSIE!!" mum had squealed it so high I barely heard it. She ran at me and hugged me tightly while dad backed into the corner of the room slowly. Phew. At least mum was happy about it but I couldn't say the same for dad, who was now over in the corner of the room, growling under his breath, obviously trying really hard not to kill Jake. Jake however seemed totally at ease. To him he had just gotten past the worst, telling Mum.

"Have you talked to Carlisle? Have you picked names? Do you thing it's a boy or a girl? Or both? You could be having twins! You'll need another room in your cottage. Alice will want to decorate the room of course. Esme will need to plan the room first!" Mum just kept rambling on and on before she ran towards the front door threw it open and shouted "ALICE!! ESME!!!"

Aunt Alice and Gran arrived a couple of seconds later with a worried look on both there faces.

"What's wrong?" Great the whole family would know as soon as Alice found out.

"No, no, nothings wrong. Well...Nessie's pregnant!!!" "Happy" obviously didn't cover how mum felt. She was ecstatic!

Esme looked at Jake accusingly, and then smiled hugely at me.

"I'm too young to be a great grandma, Renesmee!!" Esme was laughing!

Alice looked as though she would explode.

"WHAT?! Oh my god! Imagine the shop- er... Congratulation Ness! Contgrats Jake!" Alice was grinning the biggest grin I'd ever seen on her.

Jake's grin, amazingly, was bigger. Alice was the first person to congratulate Jake and he took it well. Suddenly I remembered what Mum had said.

"Alice?"

"Yea Ness?"

"We'd really like it if you decorated the baby's room." I said and then added, because of my terrible sense of fashion, "And shop for him...or her."

The grin got even bigger on Alice's beautiful little pixy-like face.

"Really?! Oh my god!! Thank you so much Ness!!"

Now I had to ask gran for the new room.

"Esme?"

"Hmm? What is it Renesmee?" Gran always called me by my full name, not my nickname.

"Would you mind building another room for the baby? We wouldn't have any room otherwise." This was the truth. Jacob could barely stand straight in house; luckily gran had thought of Jake's height and made it just tall enough.

"Oh, of course Renesmee! I'd better get planning!" Esme jumped up, kissed my cheek and ran up the stairs towards her bedroom.

Suddenly my hands became sweaty and my heart beat even faster. Time to talk to dad. I started walking towards the corner where dad sat grumpily, still growling quietly to himself. Once he saw me coming he stood up quickly, composed his face and said "What wrong Ness?"

"I...I...was just wandering why your so mad."

Suddenly a frown appeared on his face. "Well...you're still my little girl and you're too young." This was exactly true I had just turned 25, in real years though I was only 9.

"Mum doesn't mind so why should you?" I could here the anger in my voice but ignored it.

Suddenly his face softened and I saw a smile playing on his lips. "No... Your mother doesn't mind does she? But you haven't known Jake for long and I don't think you could handle the pressure of a child." This made me laugh. Dad looked at me with a startled look on his face but then he growled.

"You had only known mum for two years when you married her! And you were only married for a week when she fell pregnant! I've known Jake for my whole life and you're still saying it's too soon!"

Dad growled again, he had not planed this chat to back fire.

"Dad, can't you just be happy for me and Jacob?"

His expression suddenly softened for the third time. "Of course I'm happy for you and Jake; I'm just worried you don't know what you're doing."Suddenly he was hugging me then when he let go of me he threw me a quick smile then walked over to Jake and shook his hand. I was suddenly overwhelmed. I could distinctly feel a tear slide down my face but paid no attention to it. I looked over at Jacob who was being congratulated over and over again. His eyes finally met mine then a mask of horror appeared on his face for the second time today. He started walking towards and was beside me in no time.

"What's wrong hunny?" Jake was starting to get worried.

"No...Nothings wrong. I'm just so happy!" I felt a smile creep onto my face.

"Me too." I looked up into jakes eyes and was astonished to see tears glittering there.

I looked back over at my family and suddenly realised Carlisle wasn't there. Dad must have read my thoughts because at the same time he walked over to me grabbed my hand and dragged me upstairs towards Carlisle's study. I heard mum and Jakes footsteps behind us so I knew they were coming. Once we got to Carlisle's study dad knocked it twice then walked in with me close to his heels.

"Carlisle? Ness would like to tell you something." Dad said quietly but I knew granddad could here.

"What is it Nessie?" Carlisle looked over to me with a curious look on his face.

"Well...I'm pregnant." I felt a bit awkward saying this to granddad. Carlisle suddenly got out of his seat, walked over to me, gave a quick hug, shook Jake's hand and then faced me again. "Congratulations Renesmee. And you to Jacob. How long have you been pregnant Renesmee?" This I did not know the answer to.

"I don't really know." I felt a bit ashamed at my lack of knowledge but Carlisle nodded.

"Hmm. I should give you a scan just to be sure." I nodded thinking that would be a good idea. "Come with me Ness, You too Jacob. Edward, Bella you can stay here." Mum was about to protest when I shook my head.

"It's ok mum, I'll be back in a while." Mum gave a reluctant nod.

I blew her a quick kiss then ran after Carlisle, holding Jake's hand as we ran. Once we reached Carlisle's little doctors' room he turned to me and nodded towards the big lounger, seat thing. I sat down on it and lay back. When Carlisle came back through the door he had a small tub of cream or gel or something. Carlisle noticed me looking and said

"This will be really cold Ness but its necessary." I just nodded.

Carefully Carlisle smeared the freezing gel stuff over my belly. He then got his little scanner thing and suddenly the room was filled with another heartbeat. No. Another three heartbeats! I looked up at Jake, who was still holding my hand, to find him looking intently at the monitor with a huge smile on his face. After a while he looked down at me and the smile got even bigger, though there were tears in his eyes, he still looked overjoyed. "Triplets!" Jake was whispering but I could still hear the pure joy in his voice. We sat looking at the screen for a whole fifteen minutes before Carlisle turned it off. Just as Jake started to protest Carlisle held up his hand.

"Emmett, Jasper and Rose are back." He said it like an explanation but I still wanted to hear my babies. Carlisle too looked upset about having to put the monitor away. Jake pulled me to my feet as Carlisle walked out the room to tell Em, Jas and Rose the news, that was if he could get to them before Alice. Jake and I made our way back to Carlisle's study to tell Mum and Dad. As soon as I walked through the door mum was by my side.

"Well? How did it go?" I could hear the excitement and fear in mum's voice. As mum asked dad beamed at me and Jake, he must have read our thoughts.

"Triplets." Was all I could say before I chocked on tears. Suddenly mum looked as though she would burst into tears as well as well and dad started roaring with laughter that was filled with pure joy. Jake was like a mix of mum and dad. He had tears flowing down his face but he was chuckling. I was standing silently with tears flowing down my own face. After about ten minutes of laughing dad finally pulled himself together and hugged us all then he flew out of the room, downstairs to hug everybody down there too. Mum followed him out of the room. Jake turned to me picked me up and swung me round and round. Once he had put me back down he grabbed my hand and we walked downstairs. As we reached the bottom stair there was a round of applause and shouting that came from Uncle Emmett and Jasper.

"Woohoo! Alright Ness! Jake! You're still alive! Great achievement my man!...Or dog...Whatever." Emmett skidded to a halt right in front of us. His huge arms wrapped around me and then he punched Jakes shoulder saying "Congrats Guys!"

Suddenly I felt really excited for some reason. I looked over at Jasper, who was talking to Carlisle and Edward. I then realised that he must be feeling so excited that he was causing everyone else to as well. I then felt a fresh wave of affection towards Jasper. Jacob took my hand suddenly and spun me round to face him. He leaned in to whisper in my ear "I love you Ness, more than anything in the world." I felt a smile spreading across my face.

"Not for long though. So you'd better save up all that love you're giving me or the kids might not like you so much!" Jake started laughing then pulled me close to his chest, he tilted my head back so he could look at my face then he bent in to kiss me.

After what seemed like forever he pulled away and said "Let's go home." Just the very thought of the word home made me want to scream with joy! I was without a doubt the luckiest girl alive. I had Jake and triplets coming along as well! Quickly I said goodnight to my family, noticing that Esme was still missing, and then left with Jacob still holding my hand. Once we got home I saw Esme and a team of men laying foundations for the new room. Noticing that I was home she flitted to my side.

"How's the baby?" This very question shocked me. How could Esme still not know?

"Esme were having triplets!" It was obvious Jake had been dying to say it out loud. He basically shouted the words at her!

"What!! Oh my goodness! Congratulations! You'll need three more rooms now!" and with that she returned to the builders planning again.

Jake and I slowly walked in side thinking of the long day we had. Once inside Jake steered me to the couch where he plopped me down onto it, taking the seat opposite.

"We need names" Jakes smile got even bigger as he said this and I knew why. Names would make this seem more real.

"Ok...how about, for a girl, Jess? It's Ness and Jake mixed." I could see that as I said it his eyes filled slowly with tears

"I think it's perfect." Jake was close to tears now.

"Ok...your turn." I was starting to have fun.

"Ok now the boy" Jake sounded quite eager to be getting on with the boys. "How about EJ? Its Edward and Jacob mixed."

"It's perfect!! I love it! So that's Jess and EJ"

I think they're perfect!"I could see that he really meant it.

"Me too" was all I could say before I yawned. Jake swung me off the couch and into his arms, then carried me off to bed, where I fell asleep almost immediately.
