Disclaimer- I don't own the Twilight series; I just own Gabe and Sarah.
Thanks to all who reviewed the story so far. This chapter a new minor new character is introduced and a disagreement between Edward and Jacob.
Jake's P.O.V.
Maine is nothing compared to Washington. I never thought I would miss my friends, family and the reservation, so bad. I talk to Quil and Embry all of the time. Rachel sends me text messages; I've talked to dad who told me that Emily gave birth. She gave birth to a boy and his name is Samuel Clayton Uley. Sam tells me that the baby is just like him. The only time, I've been back was when Sam and Emily official got married. It was fun to see my friends again, but depressing in knowing that I would be leaving in two days.
Shit I miss my old life, curse Edward for moving us so far away from everyone. I can't do anything with my pack brothers anymore. Talk about the girls on the reservation, going cliff diving, going to the beach or driving around in the rabbit at insane speeds. My life has been reduced to watching my children, waiting for Edward to come back from school, and being Leah's personal slave. I feel so lonely here without any friends outside the Cullens and Leah.
"Jake," I hear Leah scream. God, I do not want to be with her right now. Esme is here let her deal with Leah. Going into the nursery, I see Gabe and Sarah fast asleep. Sensing I'm near, Gabe looks up at me with his beautiful eyes.
"Hey little guy, want to get away from Auntie Leah for awhile?" Gabe just nods, grabbing him; we quickly take off for town. I can't wait until Gabe is older, so we can do more things. I love Sarah, but it feels as if she is closer to Edward and I'm closer to Gabe. Maybe it's because Sarah is more vampire and Gabe is more human. I can't relate to the fact that she needs to drink blood to survive. As we drive, I notice a music store I haven't seen before. Having nothing else better to do, we go inside. The classic punk sound of the Sex Pistols blast from speakers attached to the walls. Every type of instrument imaginable fills the story.
As we walk around we notice numerous guitars. "That," Gabe said. Looking at what he wants I see a black and red electric guitar with a swirl design that at this point is bigger then him. "That."
"You want it?"
He nods. "Your baby has good taste," says a pretty black girl coming from nowhere. She has to be no older then eighteen as she headed toward us. "How old is he?" She asked smiling at Gabe. Gabe smiles back and reaches his hands towards what he wanted.
"He's one."
"Really? Here let him try this," she says getting what he wanted down and holds it in front of him. He runs his fingers over the strings and giggles at the feel. "A natural player, the guitar he picked is good one. It's quite rare."
A new thing Gabe inherited from Edward, musical ability. He definetly didn't get it from my side. "How much is the one he picked out?"
"Do you really want to know?" She smirked.
"Yes!"
"$5000."
I almost fall over. "Are you serious?"
"Yes, I told you it was rare."
It's not like I don't have the money; Edward has given me two different credit cards with unlimited amount of cash. Taking a look at Gabe, he is giving me a pair of huge puppy dog eyes and pouts his little bottom lip out. Damn that face, I can't deny it. "I'll take it."
"Awesome," she says getting it ready. "So what's your name?"
"Jacob and this is my son Gabriel."
"I'm, Nicky, so I haven't seen you before. Did you just move here?"
"Some months ago, I haven't been in this store."
"So Jacob, do you play?"
"No, I don't have any musical ability, but him yes. So you work here?"
"Yes, my boss is out for right now, only reason I work here is to save up money, so I can move out to California. Why would you move here? This place is not the most exciting place in the world."
It feels good to speak with someone outside of my family. "Just moved here no real explanation, so how old are you?"
"Twenty-one. Let me guess you're twenty-six?"
"Eighteen actually."
"Seriously and you have a child? Well whatever." She finishes getting the guitar ready and hands it to me. Giving her the credit card, she swipes it. Before me and Gabe get ready to leave Nicky and I talk some more. After an hour of talking, I make a new friend. "Jake come back sometime." She said as me and Gabe get ready to leave.
"I will," I promise. Going back home, we find Edward and everyone else already there. "Hey," I say kissing him.
"Look," Gabe said mentioning the guitar I'm carrying.
One of Edward's eyebrows rises up in confusion. "Jake, can you play?"
"No, it's for Gabe."
"He's a baby."
"I know, but he wanted it." Edward gives me a look that says that he doesn't believe my statement. "It's true."
"Jacob, he's too young for the instrument. You should have waited until he was old enough to at least carry and hold one. Or better yet consulted me."
"I don't have to tell you, when I want to buy something."
"Of course you don't, but something like this yes."
That bastard, does he have to have control over every part of my life? "I bought him a guitar, not a fucking hooker."
"Jacob, watch your language," Edward warns.
"I can say whatever the hell I want." Goddamn he is frustrating to be around, setting the guitar down I head back outside. I don't want even be in the same area with Edward at this point.
"Jacob," I hear Edward call out to me. Changing into my wolf form, I take off. "Jacob wait," he calls out running after me. Moving faster, I try to out run him, but he is right on my tail. "Jacob stop."
Stopping, I change back. "What?" I growl.
"I didn't mean to make you upset, but still Gabe is a baby."
"An intelligent baby, look I can do what I want."
"I understand that, Jacob please just listen. I know you bought it for him, but he is too young and he would appreciate it more when he is older. Besides if you want to fair, you should have bought Sarah an instrument as well."
Turning my eyes, I look down at my feet. I guess I should have. "Even if he can't play now, I'll keep it until he is ready."
"That's acceptable." Edward lifts my head and places his lips against mine. "Jacob, I know you were only looking out for him. Just please be more conscious about what he is capable of."
"All right." Is all I say as we continue kissing, but I'm still pissed at him.

Leah's P.O.V.
Placing her hand on my stomach, Alice feels our little girl kick her small legs. "She's cute." Alice said.
"She's not born yet."
"I know," she says kissing my stomach. "Maybe we'll have twins or triplets."
"No!" I don't want to even think about that possibility. I know what Jacob went through and there is no way, I'm about to go through the same experience when giving birth.
"But there is a possibility like with Jacob."
"Twins are common in Jacob's family, but not in mine."
"Damn, I can still dream."
"Sometimes dreams come true," said Jasper as he stroked my hair. "Speaking of our child, we have not come up with a name yet."
"Harriet after your father," Alice suggested.
"No, I don't want to worry about names right now."
"But why not? I want to get everything personalized before the baby is born."
"You'll have time to do that afterward," I point out. Alice just gives me a small pout, but smiles again. "I would like my mom to come when I have the baby."
"Of course," says Jasper. "We wouldn't deny her the chance to not be apart of her grandchild's birth."
"Thanks," I said as the baby delivers another sharp kick. I swear this girl is going to be a fighter when she comes out. Looking out the window, I wonder how Emily is doing. The last time I talked to her, she expressed how she loved being a mother. Other then mom, Rachel, and Billy no one on the reservation even know that I'm pregnant. Even if I'm not in love with Sam anymore, I wonder what he would think if he found out. He wasn't too happy to find out that I was going off to live with the Cullens. At his wedding, I tried to ignore him, but jealousy flared within me as I watched him and Emily kiss. I have to stop thinking about him.
"Leah, are you alright," Jasper asked. He doesn't how much emotion, but his eyes hold concern.
"Yes fine," sighing I wish I was with the pack right now even if they got on my nerves. They were my second set of brothers. With Seth gone and Jacob trying to avoid me, I feel lonely. I love Jasper and Alice, but there are some things I can't speak with them about.
"Leah," Alice whined taking me out of my thoughts.
"What?"
"You're sad."
"No I'm not, I was thinking."
"About what?"
"Nothing," I love them, but I wish they would leave me alone sometimes. Getting up, I decide to head downstairs for awhile. As we go into the living room, I notice Sarah looking down at Gabe who is crawling all over a guitar case. The look on her face is of pure envy. "Where did that come from?"
"Daddy got it for Gabe," Sarah answered. Even at one she speaks better than most seven year olds. Carlisle predicted that mentally she should be a full maturity in a few years, and then her body will catch up. She shoots her brother a look that reminds me of what I used to do with Seth.
Picking her up, I put her in my lap. Almost out of spite she curls into me and sticks her tongue at Gabe. He just doesn't pay attention to her and keeps his focus on the instrument. "Did Jacob buy you anything?"
"No, he and papa got into a fight. Leah what's a hooker?"
The question throws me off guard looking over at Alice; she just covers her mouth trying not to laugh. "Nothing you need to worry about. Why?"
"Cause daddy said he didn't buy Gabe one."
"Of course he wouldn't." I hope not. "Don't worry right now." She nods and snuggles deeper into my arms. Gabe attention gets off the guitar and shifts towards me. He just glares for a second and returns his attention on his guitar. I always wonder what he is thinking. Sarah is a telepathic and can easily tell us what she is thinking, but can shield her thoughts quite easily something pointed out by Edward. Gabe hasn't shown us if he has any special abilities; I bet they will come out when he is older.
The baby kicks my stomach so hard that Sarah feels it. "Will the baby be a vampire?" She asked.
"I don't know yet."
"It wolf," Gabe said.
"Vampire," Sarah responds back.
"Wolf."
"Vampire."
"Wolf."
"Vampire."
"Wolf."
Their first fight, it's so sweet. Not really, but it is funny to watch as Sarah gets off my lap and towers over Gabriel the same way I used to do with Seth. Taking a page from Rosalie's book, she puts her hands on her hips and glares down at Gabe. "It's a vampire."
"Wolf," Gabe howled.
Where the hell is Edward and Jasper when they are needed? "The baby will be both," Jasper says breaking up the argument, by picking up Gabe's guitar. Taking it out, he starts to strum it that catches Gabe's attention.
"He'll be perfect as a dad," Alice whispered into my ear as she nibbles on it. I just nod. He would make a good dad and Alice will make the perfect mom, but where does that leave me?
Please review the chapter and let me know how it went. I loved writing Gabe and Sarah's interaction, because it is a small preview on how they will act towards each other when they are older.
Next chapter coming soon.
