I'm dedicating this chapter to my friend Jas (.lamb), who is my best friend, the loveliest person I've ever met and a genius. Missing you already.

Explanations

Jasper P.O.V

As I caught Leah, my arms burned. God, she was hot!! Not in that way, of course. She was a pretty girl, but I had Alice. I couldn't understand her emotions though. Then it hit me. These were exactly the emotions I'd felt from Bella when she was pregnant, with a slight difference though. There was confusion, anger & hurt, but one thing was missing. Love.

As I thought this, I ran up the stairs to Carlisle's office. He must have seen the look on my face and cleared a space on the sofa.

"Jasper, what's wrong??" he asked, concerned.

"She fell down the stairs. I caught her, but she had passed out by then." I explained. "There is another problem…I think she might be pregnant and so does she."

"What's wrong?" Carlisle asked cautiously.

"We think it's Emmett's." I answered. I felt Carlisle's shock, confusion and sympathy as my words sunk in.

"…Ok, I'll need to run some tests. This is complicated." he said quietly. "Does Rosalie know??" he added.

"Nope." I said, wincing.

"Does Emmett know??" he continued.

"She tried to tell him, but he didn't believe her. Then she ran off and fell." I answered, remembering how upset she was. I'd tried to apologize, but she was already unconscious.

"I think you'd better tell Emmett what's going on. He trusts you, and he does have a right to know." Carlisle said pleadingly. I knew what this meant. Even Carlisle could see he would flip out and need me to calm him down. Great. I'd probably go and find him now and get it over with.

"Ok, Carlisle. Tell me when she's conscious." I said grimly, walking out of his office.

As soon as I left the office I was almost attacked by a curious Alice and a confused Edward.

"Jasper, why has your future disappeared??" she asked, biting her bottom lip.

I explained to them, slowly, leaving out her feelings. That was personal. There was a few moments of shocked silence, then Edward broke in.

"Emmett is so dead when Rosalie finds out!!" Edward laughed. I shut him up with a glare.

"You can laugh Eddie!! You're not going to have to explain it to him!!" I growled.

"Jasper, calm down. He's not planning to hurt you." Alice soothed.

"Not yet. Wish me luck." I said darkly, before running off into the night.

Good god, Emmett smelled like peppermints. I hate that smell!! In fact I was allergic to them when I was human. As the smell became unbearable I found Emmett, sitting next to a fire in the woods, staring into the flickering flames. I hadn't realised how confused he was. His head snapped round as he heard me approach, but he was disappointed to see it was me.

"Hey Jazz." he said glumly.

"Hey Emm. Who did you think it was??" I asked.

"Rosalie. She hasn't spoke to me after the whole Leah thing. It didn't even matter!!" he tried to explain desperately. I felt a twinge of guilt. I was going to really hurt him.

"Emmett, it's not that simple." I started.

"What do you mean, not that simple??" he started menacingly, turning his head slowly.

"Emmett, I don't know how to tell you this, but Leah… Leah's pregnant." I said, with an insane rush of guilt. His reaction caught me totally off guard. He whirled round, glaring.

"Jasper, this isn't funny!! Ok, if Rosalie's put you up to this it's fine. Tell her I'm sorry. But if not, it's not nice!!" he snarled.

"Emmett, her emotions are just like Bella's, she's been having morning sickness…" I started, then Emmett grabbed my throat.

"Jasper, stop it!!! You know as well as me it's impossible. I'm a freaking vampire!!!!" he growled, shaking me by my neck.

"Emmett, put me down!!! I don't want to have to bite you, but I will!!" I choked, sending out feelings of guilt to Emmett. He glared at me.

"Yeah. You've shown that before. Remember Bella's 18th??" he sneered, dropping me. That was below the belt, and he knew it. I had to stop myself from attacking him as he walked off. I ran after him, grabbing his arm. Then my phone rang.

"Hello, Jasper Hale speaking." I said breathlessly.

"Jasper, she's coming round. What's wrong??" he asked.

"Nothing, I'm fine, but Emmett, if you don't believe me, ask Carlisle. He's running blood tests as we speak!!" I said triumphantly. His face paled.

"I'll leave you to explain to Rosalie." I smirked, running back towards the house. I heard his growl as I ran.
