About two years later I was about to call Elaine when the phone rang.

"Hello?" I answered the phone since I was grabbing it any way.

"Hi Emmaline! I have amazing news, I'm gonna have a baby!" Elaine said over the phone.

"Me too, I was just about to call you to tell you! Wait, Embry knows, right?" I asked.

"Well… not yet, but…" She began slowly.

"But what? You tell me first, not him? Are you crazy?" I interrupted her with questions.

"He's at work and I just had to tell someone now. No, I'm not crazy," She replied.

"Just if he gets mad, don't get me involved," I answered.

"Quick question, have you told Seth yet?" She asked.

"Yes, I told him on his lunch break," I answered smugly.

"Bye, Emmaline, see ya later," She said.

"Bye, Elaine, good luck!" I replied.

Two weeks later

I was so mad at Seth, but I had to hold it together until I dropped Abby off at daycare. Seth had the day off. He was so going to get it when I got home.

"Seth Stewart Clearwater! Get your butt in here! NOW!" I yelled the moment the door closed behind me.

"What?" He asked defensively as he walked over to me.

"Don't 'what' me! You know what you did wrong!" I snapped in response.

"You mean letting Paul stay here overnight? You've let me do that before," He answered.

"Yes!" I replied still yelling. Then I made a huge mistake, I punched him. "Ow!" I screeched, and then I kicked him. "Ow!" I screeched again.

"Oh Honey! Here, I'll get you to the hospital," He said in a voice I couldn't say no to.

"Fine," I moaned as he carefully picked me up.

When we got to the hospital Seth carried me in. A nurse went and got Carlisle. He talked to me to understand what had happened. I explained that I had gotten angry. I also instinctively reminded Carlisle that I was pregnant.

"Okay, well your bones definitely feel broken. I'll put a brace on your hand and foot," Carlisle explained calmly.

"Okay," I replied. I had calmed down a lot since we left home.

Carlisle got them on quickly so we could get home soon. Luckily, I healed quickly.

Two months later, I called Elaine when I got home from my doctor's appointment.

"Hello?" She answered.

"Hi Elaine! Guess what!" I said excitedly.

"What?" She replied with the same excitement.

"I'm gonna have twins!" I answered.

"Now you guess what!" She replied.

"What?" I answered quickly.

"I'm gonna have triplets!" She replied excitedly.

"Well that's a great start on the big family you've always wanted! Does Embry know?" I replied just as excited.

"Yes, I told him on his lunch break," She answered annoyed.

"Good," I replied. Then I noticed that Seth was standing behind me. "I gotta go, Seth's home from work. Bye!" I said then hung-up.

"Soooo were you telling Elaine?" Seth asked with a smile.

"Yes," I answered, trying to wrap my arms around his waist. It was a bit difficult since I had a pretty good sized baby-bump.

He smiled and kissed my forehead. He looked like he had something to tell me.

"What?" I asked looking up at him.

"I got something for free and I want to show it to you," He answered.

"What is it?" I asked impatiently.

"Well come on then!" He said as he pulled me outside.

"You got a… motorcycle?" I asked amazed.

"Yep, a customer came in and said if I could fix it I could keep it. Amazing, huh?" He replied.

"Just be safe, okay Sweetheart," I answered, even though I knew he was almost indestructible.

"I'll be fine," He said reassuringly.

"Okay," I answered, mostly believing him.

Seven months later, Seth was fast asleep and I was suddenly in pain.

"Ow!" I screeched, quietly enough not to wake Abby but loud enough to wake Seth.

"What is it Baby?" Seth asked sleepily.

"I think it's the babies!" I said emphasizing the plural.

"Oh my gosh!" He said as he snapped awake.

"Everything's ready except we're not at the hospital!" I told him.

"I'll call Ashlee. She said she would care for Abby when this happened," He replied as he got out of bed and put on a pair of jeans.

"Ow," I moaned as he handed me a pair of stretch pants and other things to change into.

Seth left me alone to get dressed, but waited right outside our bedroom door. When I was done he helped me into the car with sleepy Abby slung over his shoulder. He called Ashlee and her husband, Jacob Black, on the way. Jacob picked up and said that Embry had just called saying Elaine was on her way to the hospital to have her triplets soon. He also mentioned had left for the hospital already to be with Elaine but he would get his kids into the car and meet us there.

When we got to the hospital I happened to be in the room across the hall from Elaine. Embry came over to talk to Seth. I overheard part of their conversation.

"Ten bucks one of my three is a boy," Embry said confidently.

"You're on!" Seth replied.

"Excuse me, Mr. Call, your wife wants you," A nurse said as she walked in.

"Gotta go! Please wish me some luck," Embry said as he left the room.

"Good luck!" Seth called after him.

"Ow, ow, ow, ow!" I moaned.

"Breath Honey, in and out, in and…" He said trying to soothe me.

"Shut-up," I snapped at him, still moaning a bit.

"I'll go get the doctor, you're about ready," The nurse said sweetly as she left.

A few minutes later Carlisle came in. Twenty-five minutes later our first boy was born. Matthew Stewart Clearwater. Fifteen minutes after him Madelyn Joyce Clearwater was born. Matthew looked a lot like Seth, while Madelyn looked a lot like me.

Two hours later Embry came back into the room I was staying in.

"Pay up Seth, I got two girls with a boy sandwiched in the middle," Embry said as he came in.

"You know, I never completely doubted you," Seth said as he put Matthew down and got out his wallet.

"So what are their names?" I asked, trying to somewhat change the subject.

"In order of birth it's: Annabelle Marie, Ethan Allen, and Zara Anne. Elaine begged me to let her name the last one Zara, eventually I gave in. What are their names?" He asked after answering my question.

"Well our boy is Matthew Stewart. Our newest little girl is Madelyn Joyce. How is Elaine?" I answered.

"I'm worried about her. Dr. Cullen said she lost a lot of blood. Also the babies are in the NICU. I love her and I don't want to lose her," Embry answered sadly.

"I'm sorry. She's my best friend and I would hate to lose her as well," I answered sympathetically.

"I should go now," Embry said as he left.

"Bye," Seth and I called after him quietly. Then we gave each other a confused look with a bit of sadness mixed in. Seth put his arm around me and kissed the top of my head. I knew she would make it, I just did. The situation made me feel so thankful that my babies and I were healthy.

The next day, once they released the babies and me, Seth and I visited Elaine. Embry had come in later the day before to tell us that Elaine wanted us to visit. Carrying Maddie in her car seat I poked my head into Elaine's hospital room. Embry saw me and motioned for us to come in. When I walked in I saw Ashlee curled-up in her husband's arms. Their daughter had her head in Jacob's lap and their son curled-up next to Ashlee, both kids were asleep. When Elaine saw me she smiled weakly.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" I asked smiling back.

"Better than yesterday," Elaine answered.

Ashlee groaned as she awoke in Jacob's arms. They shared a quick tender moment. Then Jacob whispered something in her ear. Ashlee responded quickly, quietly, and sounding annoyed.

"Well, Jacob's desperate for me to announce this, so here it goes. I'm pregnant!" Ashlee announced quickly.

For a moment everyone was speechless. Elaine was the first to speak.

"Wow," Elaine said pronouncing every letter, "Didn't see that one coming."

"I agree," I said to Elaine. Then to Seth I said, "Don't you sweetie?"

"Yeah, I guess," Seth replied.

After chatting for a bit, Seth and I excused ourselves just as a nurse came to kick us out.

It was late when we got home, so Abby was already in bed.

"Thanks so much Emily," Seth said as I took the twins down the hallway to the bedroom.

"You're welcome. She has a very interesting personality," Emily replied.

"What do you mean by that?" Seth asked.

"I mean that she likes to talk and you are lucky to have a kid like her," Emily answered.

"Thanks again. Bye Emily. Say hey to Sam for me," Seth said.

"Okay. Good night Seth," She said on her way out the door.

When Seth walked into our bedroom he found me sprawled across our bed. I had fallen asleep as soon as I put the twins in their cribs. He gently moved me so that I had my head on my pillow and put a blanket on top of me.

"Thank you," I whispered sleepily.

Seth and I quickly got into the routine of having three kids with two of them less than a year old.
