Sorry if the M's missing from some words only the keys gone sticky (Nothing to do with me eating over it) so sometimes the M doesn't come out.
Plus the reviews are finally back up and working! No, this is not me begging for reviews LOL!!
Sorry about the quote here thing in the last chapter but it was a reminder because I wrote it when I was stuck down my Nan's with no internet to go find the quote but of course I never did. Anyway I've changed it now.

Jake POV
I woke feeling weird as if my body wasn't attached to my head. At least the pain had gone; I didn't know how the hell I'd survived the pain of last night. I did a stock check of my body- I was covered in braces and...And I couldn't feel my legs! I couldn't feel my legs! Then I remembered the snap in the field. Oh God my spine! I whimpered at the thought of spending the rest of my life in a wheelchair like my Dad. No, calm down you're a wolf, you'll be fine. I turned to see a blanket lying next to me; someone must have slept with me. Callie. As if I'd called her with my mind the door opened and Cal walked in looking pale.
"Morning sickness?" I guessed.
"Jake! I told them you had a warped sense of late morning! Oh God you worried me!" She burst into tears and raced over to the bed. She bent and kissed my lips lightly. "Don't you dare do that to me again!"
"I'm sorry for everything. What I said yesterday..."
"Jake, I nearly lost you last night. It put everything into perspective. I am so sorry, I shouldn't have gone off like that but I'm so full of hormones and my head's all over the place." She looked like she was about to start crying again so with my good arm I pulled her down next to me.
"I love you." I whispered as I kissed her head.
"How you feeling?"
"Stoned." She giggled before going silent for a minute. I moved our interlocked hands to over her belly to rub it. "So, baby..."
"Yeah we're having baby." She smiled at me.
"I didn't mean what I said yesterday, I am glad you're pregnant." She smiled and moved a strand of hair from my eye. "I'm just scared that I'm going to turn out like my Dad."
"You will be like your Dad. How many times do we have to have this conversation- Billy is your Dad, Joshua's the sperm donor. You're going be a great Dad, I promise." She leaned over to kiss me gently on the cheek.
"Ah, Jacob you're awake." Carlisle came in with a bag of morphine in one hand. "You're awake early. How are you feeling? Can you feel your legs?"
"What?"
"Can you feel your legs?" He asked a bit more gently as he bent over me to get to the stand behind me to change the morphine bags.
"No, I can't." I felt Callie draw a breath as if she was about to cry. "That's not good is it?"
"No, it's not what I was hoping for." He admitted.
"Does this mean I won't walk?" My voice came out strangled and I clung onto Callie's hand tighter.
"I don't know, your other bones seem to be healing well so I hope your spine is doing this same. But it's the nerves I'm most worried about, in case they don't knit together again. But I think your wolf powers will be able to handle it." He smiled kindly. "Now, what would you like for breakfast?"
"Bacon sandwich." I smiled at the thought of the tasty bacon smothered in ketchup. Yum! I looked up at Carlisle and the look on his face told me it wasn't going to happen. "What now?"
"Your jaw bones have been badly bruised. You won't be able to chew until tonight at the earliest. You're stuck with porridge." He laughed at the look on my face before leaving.
"They had to tell Rebecca and Carl the truth."
"What?! Why?"
"Well we need to tell them something and no one had any ideas but they'll keep the secret."
"How did they take it?"
"Rebecca's ok and Carl's ok now but he kept fainting when we told him. Every time he saw Paul he was on the floor. In the end we decided to keep Paul away."
"Why didn't you do that in the first place?"
"It was funny at first." She admitted guiltily."Will you be ok if I leave you to get in the shower?" She asked as she kissed my cheek again.
"Sure. What time is it anyway?"
"Almost ten but we all had a late night so most people are still asleep. I've got a hospital appointment at eleven."
"Why?" I asked, worried. I tried to sit up by the movement caused a spasm of pain through my body.
"Sit down! Its nothing, they just want to check on the baby because of my condition. I'll get Jasper to take me."
"I wish I could go with you." I said in between gasps as I tried desperately to breathe through the pain.
"Next time you will." She told me before kissing me as she left.
"Next time I will." I promised her silently.
Callie POV
The front room was full of vampires, Werewolves and humans all worried about Jake. The wolves had camped out in the garden, the vampires had watched TV all night and the humans had just arrived. I gave them a half smile before beckoning to Jasper to come into the kitchen with me.
"I have to go to the hospital today. Will you take me, I wouldn't ask only I don't want to go alone." I confessed.
"Of course I will." He wrapped his arms around me gently. "But if he wasn't hurt already I would kill him for getting you pregnant."
"Hey! It was a joint venture."
"Yeah, well I don't want you to having nay more joint ventures."
"Yes Granddad."
/\/\/\/\
"Callie Whitlock?" A nurse asked.
"I can't go in there." I whispered to Jasper as all the blood drained from my face. Why didn't I want to go in there? Well as soon as I went in there it was real which meant that losing her would be even worse because I would have seen her.
"Yes you can, I'm with you." He pulled me up gently and led me towards the waiting woman.
"My brother." I explained as she gave us an odd look. "My boyfriends been in a car accident."
"Oh God!" She exclaimed before leading us into a small room with several machines set up around a bed. "If you just wait there then someone will be with you shortly.
"Don't leave me." I whimpered, almost on the verge of tears.
"I won't, everything will be fine Callie." We didn't have time to say anything else as a midwife and Jimbo walked into the room.
"Don't they have any other doctors here?" I laughed.
"No, I'm just here because I worked with you before and I know about your condition. So no Jake any more?" He asked as he looked at Jaspers.
"Of course I'm still with Jake! He's been in a car accident but his Dad wanted to keep him at home, he's worried about superbugs and that." I automatically repeated the cover story.
"Oh man, I hope he's ok."
"Yeah just some broken bones and a done in back."
"Yes well anyway this is your midwife Louise."
"Hi." I smiled at her and she smiled back. She was a short Caribbean women with long dark hair tied back in a ponytail.
"Hello Callie, if you wouldn't mind getting on the bed and we can check on your baby." I nodded and jumped onto the bed. It took a couple of minutes to get the equipment set up and she spread a cold liquid across my stomach. "Here we go." She whispered. There was a nervous few seconds as she scanned for the baby's heartbeat. I shut my eyes to try and calm myself down. "Here we go, your baby's first picture."
"Oh God!" I stared at the blob on the screen.
"Its a blob." Jasper said as he squinted to see it.
"It's my blob!" I said defensively before bursting into a huge grin, my blob.
/\/\/\/\/\/\
"How you feeling Jake?" I asked as I bounded into his room.
"Ok." He smiled at me as I came in, the bruises were healing and there was barely a scar where his split lip had been. "Should I take it from that smile that things are good with the baby?"
"Yep! I have something for you!" I came and sat beside him before pulling the scan picture out of my bag. "This is your baby."
"No! Look at it, it's a beautiful...blob." He smiled as he took it in his good arm.
"It's our Blob." I agreed before kissing him.
