Jacob's POV
Renesmee had been in the bathroom for around 5 minutes when I heard the quiet thud. That's when I realised something was wrong. I jumped up and ran to the door knocking it three times. No one answered.
"Ness, you ok?"I could hear my voice trembling but I didn't care "Are you hurt? Nessie are you listening to me?...NESS? Renesmee!" Still no answer. Ok time for Mr. Tough guy "If you don't open this door right now, I'm knockin' it down!".
My hands were starting to tremble. Ok her time was up. "Ok, I'm coming in! I'm giving you two seconds...1..."
I braced my shoulder ready for the impact but the door swung open showing a slightly pissed Renesmee. I ran towards her and grabbed her arms and shook her slightly.
"Renesmee are you ok? Ness? Are you hurt?" My hands were still trembling.
She didn't answer. She just looked up into my eyes with a scared look on her face. She stayed silent. Ok now I was really scared. Maybe she had hit her head badly and got brain damage or something. Then she talked.
"Jake, you'd better sit down" Uh oh. This didn't sound good. Was she leaving me? No, we'd only been married for a week. Was she ill? No, Vampires couldn't get ill.
"What do you mean sit down? No... What's going on Nessie?" By the look on her face she didn't really want to tell me.
"Jake...I'm...I'm...Pregnant." She whispered the last word but she might as well have shouted it. How could she be pregnant? She was a Vampire! It was too soon. But. I would be a dad! I was surprised this hadn't come sooner.
"Jake? Are you ok?" I could hear her voice shaking.
The corners of my mouth began to twitch, slowly pulling up into a huge grin. After a couple of seconds I stood up and wrapped my arms round her waist, pulling her into a big hug. Her head tilted back so she could look at my face. She pulled away from me. She had a frown on her face but kept on pulling away.
"Jacob? Are you ok?" Could she not see the smile on my face? Was I just smiling in my head? Crap, I was spending too much time with Edward. But I could feel the smile. Confusion replaced the grin. Why wouldn't I be ok? I couldn't think of any reasons.
"Ness, why wouldn't I be OK?" Suddenly Renesmee had a guilty look on her face.
"Well I just thought you wouldn't want this so soon or something" I could barely make out a word she was saying because she was mumbling. Well at least I wouldn't have to face her mum and dad. We were married. They should be happy
"Well, it is but... I 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....". Amazingly her face looked even guiltier as I said this.
"What?" Then I realised what she meant. She thought I wouldn't be able to handle this and leave her. "You thought I would leave you?" I was growling now with hurt. How could she think that? I put my arms around her and crushed my lips onto hers, trying to prove why that would never ever happen. After what seemed like forever I broke away but leaned into whisper "I could never leave you Ness" to make sure she got the message.
A smile spread across her face. I took her hand and placed it against my cheek watching her thoughts. We would be like one of those happy families you only see on TV. I saw the smile on her face and smiled back. This was perfect. Suddenly the picture of the baby disappeared and was replaced by Bella and Edward. Pure horror overcame me. Where did the baby go? Nessie realised her hand was on my face so she pulled it away.
"Where did he go? Why did he disappear? Ness, where did the baby go?" I needed to know where he went.
"We need to go see Mum and Dad" She watched my face and saw the confused frown come back. "We need to tell them the news" She said it like there could be nothing scarier.
Laughing at her reaction, I grabbed my hand without another word and pulled her out of our cottage, past Bella and Edward's tiny cottage, and towards Carlisle and Esme's huge house. I didn't let go of her till we got to the front door of the house, finally straightening myself up. She opened the door herself knowing I probably break it with excitement. Once we were inside we walked as slowly as possible to the living room. There was going to be murder. Nessie looked up at me again hoping that I would do the talking. I saw the pure terror in her eyes, smiled a quick smile then called "Bella? Edward?" Who were there in a flash.
"Hey hunny, what's up?" Bella asked looking at Nessie.
"We've got some great news." I answered for her trying to sound normal and not scream in triumph.
"WHAT!? YOU STUPID MUT!" Edward had read my thoughts. Renesmee stepped in front of me trying to protect me from her fruitcake of a father. Although I knew he would never leap at me with Nessie standing there. I tried to move her out of the way but she held firm.
"Edward? What's wrong?" Bella was worried now as well. Her daughter would be in the way if Edward made a leap for me. He wouldn't of course but the thought still scared Bells to no end.
"Nessie's pregnant, Bells, you're going to be a grandma!!!." I nearly exploded with pride.
"NESSIE!!" Bella had squealed it so high only dogs would be able to hear it. This is probably why I heard it so well. Bella ran at Nessie, her arms flying every where and hugged her tightly while Edward backed slowly backed into the corner of the room. Phew. At least Bella was happy about it but I couldn't say the same for Edward, who was now over in the corner of the room, growling under his breath, obviously trying really hard not to kill me. I knew he wouldn't though. He loved Renesmee too much to hurt me.
"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!" Bella just kept rambling on so much that I had to shove my fist into my mouth to stop myself from laughing. Bella then ran to the front door and screamed "ALICE!! ESME!!!"
The evil little pixie arrived first followed by Esme. I had never forgiven Alice for dragging me on that 7 hour shopping trip just to buy a tux.
"What's wrong?" Little Miss Nosy asked first
"No, no, nothings wrong. Well...Nessie's pregnant!!!" I had to glare at Bella. She basically stole my line!
Esme looked at me accusingly, and then smiled hugely at Nessie.
"I'm too young to be a great grandma, Renesmee!!" Esme was laughing. But she was right she only looked around twenty-eight years old.
Alice looked as though she would explode with excitement.
"WHAT?! Oh my god! Imagine the shop- er... Congratulation Ness! Contgrats Jake!" Alice was the first person to congratulate me. I just had to smile at her. Suddenly Nessie walked over to Alice and started talking to her. So I followed her.
"Alice?"
"Yea Ness?"
"We'd really like it if you decorated the baby's room." Ness said and then added "And shop for him...or her." I felt my jaw fall to the floor. Was she nuts? Alice and shopping equalled torture. Or was Nessie trying to torture our baby?
The grin got even bigger on Alice's evil little face and her huge eyes got even bigger.
"Really?! Oh my god!! Thank you so much Ness!!" We were all doomed.
Ness turned and walked towards Esme.
"Esme?" She said Esme's name quite worriedly.
"Hmm? What is it Renesmee?"
"Would you mind building another room for the baby? We wouldn't have any room otherwise." This was a good idea. I could barely stand straight in our "house"; luckily Esme had thought of my height and made it just tall enough.
"Oh, of course Renesmee! I'd better get planning!" Esme jumped up, kissed Nessie's cheek and ran up the stairs towards Carlisle and Esme's room.
Suddenly Nessie looked like she was going to faint. She looked over towards Edward. She started walking towards the corner where Edward sat grumpily, still growling quietly to himself. OK, this was my queue to leave. I walked over to where Bella was sitting.
"Oh, I hope it's a girl! Boys are harder to shop for" Typical evil little witch!
"I don't mind what sex the baby is as long as I make a good grandmother" That was just Bella, trying to make everyone happy. "Oh, Hi Jake."
"Hey Granny!"Bella's face went from happy to pissed in two seconds flat.
"Jacob, I am your child's grandmother not yours!"
"Calm it Bells, I was just kidding!" I could see that Bella wasn't really in a joking mood. This was serious to her. I started to look for Emmett, but had no success in finding him. I walked back over to Alice.
"Alice? Where's Em, Jas and the beauty queen?"
"Hunting. Oh! Jake do you mind coming shopping with me for maternity clothes for Ness?" Crap! I couldn't see how I was going to get out of this.
"Erm...I can't. I've got...Erm...I've got to...er...Work." A frown appeared on shorties face.
"On Saturday? OK. Er...What do you work as?"
"Oh...I er... work as a car cleaner down in La Push." A car cleaner? Where the hell did that come from? I could tell Alice was trying really hard not to laugh. Her eyes were nearly popping out. All of a sudden Edward appeared out of nowhere, grabbed my hand and shook it really hard. I looked round to Renesmee and noticed she was in tears. I walked over to her as quickly as I could.
"What's wrong hunny?" I could tell she knew I was worried.
"No...Nothings wrong. I'm just so happy!" I saw a smile creep onto her face.
"Me too." I felt tears starting to swell up and threaten to overflow.
Nessie looked back over at her family and suddenly a frown appeared there. At the same moment Edward came striding over, grabbed Nessie's hand and dragged her upstairs. I looked over to Bella and she had a questioning look on her face. So I walked over, took her hand and we walked after them. They came to a stop outside Carlisle's study. Bella and I followed in after them to find Carlisle sitting at his desk with a huge pile of paperwork.
"Carlisle? Ness would like to tell you something." Edward said quietly we all knew that Carlisle could hear him perfectly even though he was at the other side of the huge study.
"What is it Nessie?" Carlisle looked over to Ness with a curious look on his face.
"Well...I'm pregnant." I could tell that Renesmee felt awkward but I didn't know why. Carlisle suddenly got out of his seat, walked over to Ness, gave her a quick hug, shook my hand and then faced Ness again. "Congratulations Renesmee. And you to Jacob." I felt a little thrilled that I was being congratulated "How long have you been pregnant Renesmee?" I didn't even know that and I didn't think Nessie knew that either. As if to answer me she replied.
"I don't really know." She said it like she had been caught stealing candy but Carlisle nodded.
"Hmm. I should give you a scan just to be sure." I saw Renesmee nodding "Come with me Ness, You too Jacob. Edward, Bella you can stay here." I saw Bella was about to protest when Nessie shook her head.
"It's ok mum, I'll be back in a while." Bella gave a reluctant nod.
I saw Nessie blow Bella a quick kiss then we ran after Carlisle, she was holding my hand as we ran. Once we reached Carlisle's little doctors' room he turned to Renesmee and nodded towards the big bed, seat thing and then left the room. Ness sat down on the seat thing and lay back. When Carlisle came back through he had a small tub of gel or something. Carlisle noticed Nessie looking at it worriedly and said
"This will be really cold Ness but its necessary." She nodded.
Carlisle smeared the gel stuff over her belly. He then got his scanner, placed it over Nessie's tiny baby bump and suddenly the room was filled with another three heartbeats. Wait. Three heartbeats? I felt a huge smile on my face. I probably looked like a goof but I didn't care I just watched my babies on the little monitor. I looked down to see Renesmee's reaction only to find her staring intently up at me. I saw that Nessie was overjoyed and I felt the smile on my face get even bigger. I felt the tears come back to my eyes but I fought against them. Eventually I was able to say "Triplets!"But that was all because I was overwhelmed with tears. Again! We sat looking at the screen what seemed only a few minutes when Carlisle turned it off. Just as I started to protest Carlisle held up his hand.
"Emmett, Jasper and Rose are back." Who Cares? I was about to protest again when I noticed that Carlisle too looked upset about having to put the monitor away. I pulled Renesmee to her feet as Carlisle walked out the room to tell Emmett, Jasper and Miss Beauty Queen the news, that was if he could get to them before Alice. Ness and I made our way back to Carlisle's study to tell Bells and Edward the news. As soon as I walked through the door Bella was by Nessie's side.
"Well? How did it go?" I could hear the excitement and fear in Bella's voice. As Bella asked, Edward smiled at me and Renesmee; he must have read our thoughts.
"Triplets." Was all Ness could say before she choked on tears. Suddenly Bella looked as though she would burst into tears as well and Edward started roaring with laughter that was filled with pure joy. I was like a mix of Bella and Edward. I had tears flowing down my face but I was chuckling. God Damn it! I was turning into a woman! After about ten minutes of guffawing Edward finally pulled himself together and hugged us all then he flew out of the room, downstairs to hug everybody down there too. Well at least I wasn't the only one turning into a woman. Bella followed him out of the room. I turned to Nessie picked her up and swung her round and round until I got dizzy. Once I had put her back down I grabbed her hand and we walked downstairs. As we reached the bottom stair there was a round of applause and shouting that came from Emmett and Jasper. I couldn't help laughing at them.
"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 arms wrapped around Ness and then he punched my shoulder saying "Congrats Guys!"
Suddenly I felt really excited for some reason but I payed no attention to it. I took Nessie's hand and spun her round to face me. I leaned in to whisper in her ear "I love you Ness, more than anything in the world." I saw a smile spreading across her 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!" I started laughing then pulled her close to my chest; I tilted her head back so I could look at her face then I bent in to kiss her.
After what seemed like forever I 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 guy alive. I had Nessie and triplets coming along as well! Quickly Nessie said goodnight to her family. I noticed that Esme was still missing, and then I left with still holding her hand. Once we got home I saw Esme and a team of men laying foundations for the new room. Noticing that we were home she flitted to Nessie's side.
"How's the baby?" This very question shocked Ness and me. How could Esme still not know?
"Esme were having triplets!" It was obvious I had been dying to say it out loud. I hadn't got to say it all day.
"What!! Oh my goodness! Congratulations! You'll need three more rooms now!" and with that she returned to the builders planning again.
Ness and I slowly walked in side thinking of the long day we had. Once inside I steered Nessie to the couch where I plopped her down onto it, taking the seat opposite.
"We need names" My smile got even bigger as I 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." She could see that as she said it my eyes filled slowly with tears. UGH!! That is the fifth time today!
"I think it's perfect." I said trying really hard to cover the tears.
"Ok...your turn." I could tell that she was having fun.
"Ok. How about EJ? Its Edward and Jacob mixed." Tears started to show in Nessie's eyes. Ha! Her turn to cry!
"It's perfect!! I love it! So that's Jess and EJ"
I think they're perfect!"I really meant it.
"Me too" was all she could say before she yawned. I swung her off the couch and into my arms, then carried her off to bed, where she fell asleep almost immediately.
