"Edward!" The pain I felt was intensifying by the second. Images swam in front of my eyes. Where was here? He had to be here with me. "Edward!" I cried out searching with my voice.

"Bella, I'm here beautiful, you're doing great." His voice appeared next to my ear. It was in anguish, the pain I felt, he felt. "Carlisle can't you do anything?" My panting became labored as a burning sensation flew through my veins.

A silky voice, I knew well answered from the foot of the bed. "No, she has to do what she can from here. I can't give her any more pain killers. It'll be a few more minutes."

A cool hand pressed against my burning forehead. His breath fanned against my face, it made it that much easier. "Bella." The love of my life whispered in my ear. "I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere. Focus on pushing. It's almost over." His palms caressed my face trying to get me to calm down.

"Edward, help me! Stop the pain!" He couldn't be far but I couldn't tell. The fire was taking over my senses. It was time but I couldn't focus. I needed him to help.

"Bella, stay calm. I am here. Now push. Don't think." His cool breath blew in my face and it made it that much easier. With one final push I slipped into the darkness. I was about to leave when a small anguished cry broke out for the first time. Now, I floated into my safe, protected world.

Approximately 5 minutes later...

"Alice can she hear me?" My angel's voice floated through the deep blanket of sleep covering me.

"Yes her mind is focusing on you."

"Bella?" His cool voice whispered in my ear. "You did amazing love, you made it through. We have two beautiful, healthy babies. I am so proud of you, and love you so much." And with that my eyes drew open searching for his face. With a sigh of relief he bent down and touched his lips to mine. I could tell, he was filled with more joy and excitement than I had ever seen him. "Do you want to hold them?" He asked me gently.

"Of course." All I wanted was to lie here and look at what we had created together. Esme came from the shadows behind Edward and placed a baby in each of our arms, a girl in mine and a boy in Edward's. "Bella." She said. "These babies are beautiful and you did fantastic."

All of my attention became focused on the little miracles in our arms. "What are we naming them?" Edward asked.

The tiny girl yawned and waved a small pink fist in my face, "Annika (Ah-ni-kah) Esme." I heard an audible gasp from the shadows as Esme rushed forward once more to hug me tightly. "Bella." she whispered, "Thank you so much. I am so honored."

"And our boy?" Edward prompted from my side.

"What do you think?" I asked him. I thought he should be able to name his son.

My love contemplated for a minute and then decided. "Malek Charlie." He looked at me for reassurance.

"I love it." I whispered. A wave of peace swam over me as I lay with the three most important beings next to me.


A.N: I put a lot of reasearch into the babies names and picked what I thought to be two of the most beautiful names. I also wanted a bit of sentimental value. Esme seemed fit because Edward has a special place in her heart above everyone else and Charlie because Bella doesn't want to leave him although she has to, to become a vampire.

Malek is Arabic and means King or Master.

Annika is Hebrew and means Grace of God.
