Bella was expected to have a normal birth and what if that is just what happened. Nothing new with that, right?

*****************

I was getting bigger and I knew the baby was not going to wait. I let out a heavy sigh as I tried to stand.

"Bella love, what do you need?" Edwards' voice rang in my head.

I shook my head.

"I can do this by myself." I complained. Of course I knew Edward wouldn't allow it, but still I tried to get off the couch myself.

"Bella, Please." He said reaching for my hand.

I took it, knowing I wouldn't get far without it. He supported all of my weight and I managed to make it to the bathroom in time. When I finished my business Edward was there waiting.

"Bella, please. If there is anything that you need just tell me. I feel so useless." Edward complained.

Of course that was such a silly thing to say. Edward did everything! If he wasn't helping me, he was helping someone in the family; if it wasn't them he was trying to help Jacob or someone. Edward was so selfless it made me feel like a Villain. That's why I tried to work things out by myself. Of course not getting far…

"Edward, I don't always want to have to rely on you. You should go have some fun." I said hopefully. He was so tied down lately to me, with the baby ready to come any day he stayed at my side constantly. He needed a moment away from me. I was boring. All I did was drink gallons of blood and sleep in this giant chair. He had to be aching for excitement, he was a vampire for crying out loud! It had been forever since he had last hunted. I was sure the scent of my own blood must have been killing him.

"Please Edward, go hunting with Jasper or something." I begged him.

He eyed my expression with weary eyes. Deep black circles had accumulated around his golden eyes. He looked hesitant as he thought out his next words.

"Bella, I don't want to leave and come back to find that you are in labor…" He said helping me get back to my chair I had come so use to.

"Edward, it's not fair that you have to suffer like this." I told him watching his beautiful face fall to the floor with wondering eyes.

"Ask Alice if anything will happen if you leave. I promise I will be waiting right here for you when you return." I laughed.

Again he sighed.

"Love, I…" he started.

"Please, you need to hunt." I told him right back. Even he couldn't deny this fact. It was obvious. It had been almost 4 weeks since he last ate. He flinched away every time the breeze blew my scent up his nose.

He scanned the room then his eyes found mine again.

"I promise. I will hurry." He gave me a quick but satisfying kiss as he fled from the house.

Knowing Edward I knew he meant it when he said he would hurry.

There I was again; sitting on the couch, border then a fly on the wall and sleepier than ever.

"Rose?" I called sleepily into the thin air.

In a flash she was in front of me ready for whatever I had to say. I smiled at her. Rosalie was just as excited about this baby as I was. If anything this birth had defiantly gave me a better relationship with her.

"Rose, the baby is really hungry, Do you have any more…?" I questioned her expectantly as I patted my stomach.

"Of course." And she was gone getting me more 'punch'. Before I knew it I was asleep, in a haze really.

"Bella? Bella? I have the food." Rosalie said tapping my shoulder.

I awoke and took the cup of blood I had asked for.

At first I sipped through the straw, but when that was not fast enough I took the straw out and gulped it down. Rosalie laughed as I chugged it.

"Growing baby boy here." I laughed.

"How are you so sure it's a boy?" She questioned me.

"is it like an instinct you get when you carry the child?" She asked eagerly.

Rosalie had never had children so this was all new to her, like unknown territory. I finally knew something, or rather experienced something that the vampires hadn't gone through yet, and I was excited.

"I don't think it's an instinct…I just see it as a boy." I honestly said.

She nodded. I could see her itching for more detail.

"What does it feel like? I mean, to have a baby inside you?" She asked thrilled at the idea.

I thought a moment. Of course it was the most amazing thing in the world, nothing could compare. I was always with my little baby, so close. It was a miracle really.

"Rosalie, I really don't know how to describe it. All I know is I wouldn't trade it for the world." I told her as I rubbed my large belly.

Rosalie had always wanted a child, and I wondered if this hurt her feelings.

"What are you going to name him?" She asked trying to keep our conversation going.

And I previously thought about the names Charlie and Carlisle, but nothing fit this beautiful baby until I thought about Edward.

"Well, I've thought about it. And I really like the name Mason. It's Edwards middle name and I thought it would be perfect for him. Mason Charlie Cullen." I smiled as I said his full name. Inside me I felt a little leg kick.

Rosalie who had ears that could hear a pin drop a mile away eyed my stomach.

"Was that him?" She asked surprised.

I half smiled.

"Yeah, he's waking up."
She lifted an arm and started to put a hand on my stomach put stopped. She eyed me as if trying to ask if it was okay.

I nodded my head and her hand rested on my stomach. The baby kicked where her hand was rested and she let out a little gasp.

"It's a miracle." She said smiling at me and pulling her hand back.

Edward was suddenly at my side watching me and Rosalie.

"It is." Edward said smiling brightly.

The hunt had done him good. The dark circles that had once surrounded his eyes had retreated. He looked healthier now.

I smiled up at him. He was a miracle as well.

Edward was at my side and put his arm around me.

"I love you." He whispered into my ear.

Then he looked down at my swelling belly.

He placed his white, shinning, perfect hand on it.

He did his famous dazzling smile then his eyes wondered back to my face.

At first I was under the impression Edward did not want the baby. I really felt alone until Rose. But lately he has been so sweet and he really…seemed excited.

Everything was falling into place.
