Chapter 6- Increasing Speed
Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT ONLY MY CHARACTERS
Violet's POV
'So any changes Carlisle' I asked him.
'Well besides the increased size of your belly's I'd say that nothing has really changed' he said.
'Ouch' Bella said as she attempted to get up.
'Still in pain Bells' I asked.
'Yeah, it's getting worse every day' she said wincing.
Carlisle was giving Bella and I ultrasounds but neither of the babies can be seen. Bella has been in a lot of pain lately. Her baby is literally sucking the life out of her. I've been in a lot of pain too but I can take it. My baby is always kicking and it hurts my spine.
'When do you think delivery time will be' I asked.
'Well for you Violet, I'll give you another month and a week. But Bella, I think you will give birth in a few weeks. Considering the fact that your belly is much larger than Violet's' he said.
He was right. I look about 5 months while Bells looks about 8 months.
'Whoa, and I thought I had a fast pregnancy' I said.
'I can't give the exact date but that's the closest I can get too right now' he said.
'That's ok Carlisle, I would say you gave a pretty good estimation' I said getting up.
Carlisle came over and helped me sit up then, he did the same with Bella.
Some icky jelly like substance was on my stomach from when Carlisle did my ultrasound. It made me feel sticky and uncomfortable.
'I'm going to take a shower' I said as I began walking towards the door.
I began walking up the stairs but it feels really hard to do it now. I remember when I used to run up the stairs taking 3 steps at a time.
'God, where did all these stairs come from' I said panting.
'You look like you're running a marathon' Jasper said appearing behind me.
'You try walking up all of these steps while carrying a baby who is constantly kicking you in your spine' I snapped.
'Ok sorry, sorry' he said as he held up his hands.
'I'm sorry Jazz, I didn't mean to yell. I blame the hormones' I said as I finally made it to my room.
'And to think that we've got two pregnant moody women in this house' he said shaking his head.
'Shush' I said bopping his head.
He laughed and walked back down the stairs.
I quickly went into the bathroom and took a quick shower. My back was really starting to hurt now. This baby is going to be one strong kicker when it gets older. I shaved, washed my hair and came out of the shower. I brushed my teeth and put on my underwear before I walked over to my closet. I picked out black leggings and a cute pink maternity blouse that Esme bought me. I got a pair of nude ballet flats and walked out to my vanity. I sat down and began blow drying my hair and then I curled it to fall down my back. I accessorized with a pair of feather drop earrings and a gold bangle.
'Oh god, I'm huge' I said as I looked in the mirror at my belly.
I grabbed my laptop and walked downstairs. It easier to walk downstairs than upstairs but I'm still slow. I walked into the living room and sat down on the couch and opened my laptop. I started to google how to get rid of back pains from pregnancy. I found a few things but none of them were really helpful.
'Whatcha doing' Alice said as she sat on the side of me.
'My back is killing me, so I'm trying to find something to help it' I said.
'Have you tried taking pain killers?' she asked.
'Yeah, I tried them all but they don't work' I said.
'Well Vi, I doubt that the internet will help you. I mean, this isn't exactly a normal pregnancy' she said.
'I guess your right' I said wincing as a sharp pain shot up my spine.
'Maybe you should do something to get your mind off of the pain' she said.
'Like what' I asked.
'Ummmm you can call Jake and ask him to come over' she suggested.
'He has patrol and won't be done for another 3 hours' I said.
'You can watch t.v' she said.
'There is nothing good on' I said.
'Well I got nothing' she said.
She got up and went into the kitchen with Esme.
Suddenly my laptop binged. I looked at the screen and saw that Lydia wanted to Skype. I got very excited and immediately clicked yes.
'Lydia' I said excitedly.
'Hey Vi, what's up" Lydia asked.
'I missed you so much….how've you been, found anything clues yet' I asked.
'Yes actually, our mother is still alive and is living in Italy' she said.
'Italy….we're part Italian' I asked with a raised eyebrow.
'Not quite, apparently she is German but now she resides in Italy' she said.
'What part of Italy' I asked.
'Haven't figured that out yet….but I know in a few weeks I'll find her Vi' she said determinedly.
'I know you will' I said smiling into the screen.
'Anyway….enough about me….how's the pregnancy going' she asked.
'It's really taking the life out of me' I said sighing.
' Wow, must be really painful if it has you in pain' she said.
'Yeah, my spine feels like it's going to collapse any minute now, the baby has been kicking more than usual today' I said.
'Well that means that your baby isn't a human if it's strong enough to do that to you' She said.
'Well, Carlisle said that the chances of the baby fully human are very slim and I know for sure that a lot of Jacob's genes are going to be there' I said smiling.
'I can't wait to see my little niece or nephew' she said.
'I can't wait either' I said smiling.
'How is Bella doing with her pregnancy?' she asked.
'Not so good, the life is literally being sucked out of her. Carlisle is doing everything he can to help but nothing seems to work' I said sadly.
'Oh, God I know Edward must be feeling terrible' She said.
'He's been moping around the place ever since he came back from the honeymoon' I said.
'I'll try research anything about vampire pregnancies but I doubt I'll find anything' she said.
'Thanks Lydia' I said.
The screen started to fizz out a little.
'What's going on with your screen' I asked.
'The connection is freaking out, I don't think it'll stay on much longer' She said.
'Oh ok' I said sadly.
I really wanted to talk to her a little longer. I miss her a lot.
'Tell everyone I miss them and I'll see them soon' she said.
'I will' I said.
'Bye Vi, love you and my little niece/nephew. You and Bella take care of yourselves' she said as the connection was lost.
'Bye' I said sighing at the empty screen.
I closed down the laptop and rested it on the coffee table. I leaned back into the sofa and closed my eyes. I felt the sofa sink in on the side of me and I turned my head to see Rose staring at me, specifically my belly.
'What is it Rose' I said.
She just continued staring and it was starting to make me uncomfortable.
'Rosalie' I asked in a concerned voice.
'Did I ever tell you how I became a vampire' she asked now staring at my face.
'Uhhh no you didn't' I said confused as this was very random.
'Come with me' she said standing up.
She helped me stand up and led me out to the balcony in her and Emmett's room. She sat down in a lounge chair and I sat in the other one facing her. She was staring down at her hands for a long time until she finally looked up into my eyes.
'I was raped' she said simply.
'Huh' I said. That was the only thing that could come out of my mouth.
'My fiancée and his friends raped me and left me in the street for dead' She said.
I just stared at her. Just up until now I realized that I knew everyone else's reason for being turned except for her. Now I know why she seems so hesitant to tell me. No matter how old you are, it's still hard to talk about your rape experience. But why she's telling me this now is beyond me.
'I'm probably confusing you so I'll just start from the beginning' She said.
'I was born into a wealthy family in Rochester, New York in the year 1915. My family wasn't really affected by the great depression. I used to love every time someone complimented me or told me I was pretty, every time my father would buy me new dresses, every time I would catch my friends looking at me in envy and every time I caught the attention of a man. I was very shallow and materialistic. I was never jealous of anyone, except for my friend Vera. She had the two things I longed for a loving husband and a beautiful baby. A man, Royce King, son of the richest man in Rochester wanted to marry me. I figured that was my chance to get what I wanted. My parents were overjoyed and started planning a wedding right away.' She said.
She stopped and took a deep breath.
'One night, a week before my wedding I was walking home from visiting my friend Vera when I saw Royce with a few other men. They were all drunk and Royce called me over. Him and his friends assaulted and raped me, each of them taking turns over and over again. They beat and tossed me around like I was a rag doll' she said in a quiet voice.
By this time, tears were streaming down my face and my nose was running.
'Carlisle found me after smelling all the blood and turned me. He thought that I would make a good partner for Edward but that obviously didn't work out' she chuckled slightly.
'I hunted down Royce and all his friends. I tortured them all to death but I made sure not to drink any of their blood. I saved Royce for last so that he will suffer mentally knowing that I was coming for him. But, even after getting my revenge, I was still unhappy. It wasn't until I found Emmett that I began to feel happiness.' She said.
'Oh Rose' I said reaching over to hug her.
Her cold hands wrapped around my back.
'I don't really tell people my story' she said.
'Why'd you tell me' I asked pulling away.
'I felt that you would understand me considering the fact that we had similar experiences' she said.
'When you first started living with us I wasn't happy with it I wanted you gone, but after hearing your story, it made me realize that your just like me' She said.
'Have you told Bella' I asked.
'No, I still don't trust her enough' she said.
'Well, I won't say anything to her. Your secret's safe with me' I said giving her another hug.
'Violet' she said.
'Yeah' I said.
'I'm glad you're my sister' she said.
'So am I Rose' I said smiling.
I know you guys want to kill me because of this late update and I apologize. National exams are coming up, course work is due soon and I have to keep up with my school work. I'll TRY to get the next chapter up in 2 weeks' time. REVIEW
