A/N Hi guys! Let me just start by saying that you are all so awesome! I came back from a crappy shift at work to 12 reviews and they were all so wonderful. Even if one of them made me think SOMEONE hated my sex scene. You know who you are! But, thanks' again. I know a lot of people love their reviews, but I truly mean it. I cherish all of them. Whether it's a three paragraph rant or a smiley face, I love them! So, here is the next chapter and I hope you like it!

"I love this song!"

I giggled as a drunken Rosalie twirled around singing the lyrics to Brad Paisley's Some Mistakes whilst making up her own, unique version of line dancing.

It had been three weeks since Tanya had shown up on Edward front door step, battered and bruised and it had been an amazing three weeks. Edward was wonderful! We spent all of his free time together, since all I had was free time. We would go for walks, picnic in the park with Spike on his lunch break, movie nights with all the coke I could drink. And, the most magical nights in each other arms making love.

Edward took me to new heights every night and each time was ecstasy.

The only thing that had bothered me was the fact that the clock was ticking. Every second that past was a second closer to leaving. And I didn't want to leave. Not only had I found the man of my deepest fantasies, but I had found friends and family and I didn't want to lose any of it. I had tried to voice my fears to Edward, but I was afraid of what would happen. I was afraid that he wouldn't want me to stay and I was afraid he would want me to stay. It was all very confusing. The only thing that wasn't was how much I loved him.

Tonight was the guy's monthly poker game and since Alice and Rosalie found the card game tiresome and moronic, we had decided to go dancing and drinking. Well, Rosalie and I were drinking. Alice had pouted and looked longingly at Rosalie's glass of rum and coke. Which brought me to my next thought; alcohol was amazing!

I didn't like the kind that burned my throat and made my eyes water, but I thought the sweet, fruity one's were amazing. It made my head feel fuzzy and I felt the need to dance and move around a lot.

The three of us had been on the dance floor most of the night, shaking our hips to the music and getting lost in the songs.

Rosalie was teaching me a dance move when Alice froze suddenly, fear filling her eyes.

"What's wrong?" We demanded in unison.

"I think my water just broke." She muttered.

It was then that I uttered a very appropriate human term for the first time since I arrived two month ago.

"Shit."


"Oh my god! Oh my god!" Rosalie chanted as she paced back and forth as Alice and I watched her with wary eyes.

"We need hot water and clean towel," She listed off absently. "Where is my hot water?" She snapped at the young waiter.

"Rosalie, we are not in the middle of a soap opera," Alice snapped. "I am not going to give birth to my baby in a bar with the Grease medley playing in the back ground. Some one hand me my phone and I will call Jasper and he will pick me up and drive me to the hospital where I will deliver my baby in a sterile room with so many drugs pumping through my body that I won't be able to tell the difference between a baby and a chimp."

Rosalie seemed to be soothed by Alice's ranting and nodded her, reaching in her back pocket for her cell phone.

"Give it to me." Alice ordered breathlessly as she stumbled onto a stool, her body tensing in pain as she reached for Rosalie's cell phone.

"Jazzy? It's me. My water broke and I need you to come and get us. What do you mean you've been drinking?!" She screamed down the phone, finally breaking her calm façade. "I don't care you absolute asshole. I'm in labor here and your drunk. Are you freakin' serious! Well, I'm going to call an ambulance since my husband is a useless piece of shit." She finished with a snap and ended the call, muttering curse words that made me raise my eyebrows in shock. Alice had always been so sweet and lovely and here she was cursing like a sailor. There were some warriors back home that had vile language. They had nothing on Alice.

Alice rolled her eyes as she handed Rosalie the phone back. "They're on the way. Can you help me get outside please? I'm going fucking kill Jasper for this. He promised me that since I couldn't drink, neither would he. No fuckin wonder he was so eager for a guy's poker night. I can't believe him. Can you believe him?" She demanded, looking at me with furious eyes.

"He's an idiot!" I agreed readily. I may be drunk, but I wasn't stupid. Also, thanks' to Alice's news; the fog from the alcohol was clearing away, leaving me a little sharper.

Alice nodded in satisfaction and the groaned in pain. Rosalie and I shared a worried look which Alice caught and smiled and us.

"Don't worry. Women have babies every day and everything is fine. Some even do it without pain medication." She stopped to groan as her body stiffened as pain assaulted her body. "Forget that, I'm not everyone and I want drugs!"

"You will be so high they will think you're a rock singer," Rosalie promised with a smile.

"You're such a good friend." Alice responded solemnly as we got her to the sidewalk to wait for the paramedics, a crowd of well-wishers around us, which seemed to irritate Alice as she scowled at them. "Yeah, sure, let's just go and gawk at the woman in labor, shall we? I'm sure during her most unattractive and painful experience in her life is something she's like to share with everyone." She growled, uncaring that most of them could hear her.

I just giggled as I rubbed her back. "Do you want me to go Buffy on their asses?"

She looked at me and broke out into a shaky smile. "Your such a dear." She managed to get out before groaning in pain. "Something's wrong. This is my first baby, it's meant to take hours, but the contractions are closer together than I read about." She worried.

I frowned and realized that her contractions were getting closer together than she was letting any of us know.

"Alice, don't worry. Your half Lexian. We deliver our babies a lot faster, I believe. We are pro's at childbirth," I joked.

She looked at me with relieved eyes. "So, nothing's wrong."

"Besides, there being a child that's trying to make its way out of your vagina?" Rosalie asked dryly.

We all had to laugh at that, though Alice was cut off by her contractions. Just like back home, the women would go in labor, have a contraction every few minutes, but then the contractions would get closer together and more forceful. None of the women were happy about that.

"Bella?" Alice whispered. "What if they see the baby's stones? What if they think it's a freak and take the baby away?" She worried.

"Alice, breathe," I urged her. "The stones are very small when your born, they grow as you grow. They won't even be recognizable until the baby is around six months old. You were born, remember and you weren't taken away." I reminded her.

She nodded her head. "Good. I just don't want anyone to take my baby. And I won't let anyone try to cut them out like my bitch of a mother did with me."

"No one will touch this baby." I vowed, meaning it.

"No one." Rosalie swore, placing her hand over Alice's tense stomach.

Alice smiled as tears filled her eyes and placed her hand over Rosalie's and gripped my hand so hard I had to fight back the urge to flinch when I felt a sharp jolt of pain travel through it.

"Thank you."


We had just arrived at the hospital, following behind Alice who was being raced through the hallways by a paramedic with a death wish as Alice threatened to geld him if he crashed into anything. He just smiled in good humor and assured her that he always did this and was yet to have a crash yet.

"Alice!" We heard a deep voice call.

"Stop the chair!" Alice ordered so forcefully that the paramedic grounded to a halt.

We turned to see a very pale Jasper running down the corridor, calling out his wife's name with worry etched into his features as he took in his, sweaty, pain filled wife.

He dived to his knees in front of her and pulled her in for a tender kiss.

"I'm here, baby. I'm here." He soothed her. His voice so soft and filled with such love that even the paramedic had to smile at them.

"I was so worried that you wouldn't make it. It's happening a lot faster than I thought." She spoke quietly as she kissed him back, running her fingers into his hair and then tugging viciously.

"Ow! Baby, what are you doing?" He demanded from a very odd angle as she continued to yank his hair down so he had to make the choice to move with her hand or lose a good portion of his scalp.

"I can smell the beer on your breath," She hissed. "Maybe if you weren't out getting hammered then I wouldn't have been so worried, huh?" She demanded, letting go of his hair with a shove.

"Baby, I'm sorry. I never would have drunk if I knew you were going to go into labor."

"What? So this is my fault?" She demanded icily.

"Oh, dude, come on." Rosalie commented as she rolled her eyes. "Don't piss off the woman who is about to give birth."

"Alice, we really need to get you going," the paramedic pointed out quietly, suddenly intimidated by the small woman who had seemed so sweet up until now.

The nice paramedic informed us where we could wait as he rolled Alice away, Jasper following them, begging her for forgiveness.

"Kiss my ass, Jasper. You'll be lucky if I let you into the room. I can do that, you know. I have that kind of power!" She snapped as they turned the corner.

Rosalie smiled and draped her arm across my shoulders as we watched them go.

"Birth. It's such a beautiful experience." She sighed and then we both broke out into hysterical giggles.

"That sounded Rose," Emmett commented from his seat as he made his way through a vat of coffee to sober himself up.

"And Bella." I added, looking around to see if I could see her. Id missed her so much tonight.

Tonight had been poker night and we'd had one too many when Jasper got a call from Alice telling him she was in labor. Then the race had been on to get the hospital. Not only so Jasper wouldn't miss the birth of his child, but because we knew if we didn't get there before she did, Jasper would most likely end up in a shallow grave in the woods later.

So, after Jasper had finished panicking we had ran to Emmett's next door neighbor who had taken pity on the three drunk and panicked men and gave us a ride. And a thermos of coffee that was strong enough to our hair on your chest.

We both looked up when he saw a laughing Bella and Rosalie turn the corner, arms draped over each other.

"Emmett!" Rosalie squealed and launched herself at him. He grabbed her and pulled her onto his lap and then proceed to smother in loud sloppy kisses.

I rushed over to Bella, who was still laughing and pulled her into my arms.

The past few weeks had been the best of my life.

"Hey, baby, had a little to drink, did you?" I teased and watched as her eyes widened.

"Edward, I love alcohol. So much fun!" She squealed and pulled me down for a big, smacking kiss before she saw that Emmett had raided the vending machine and dragged me over to it. I guessed that, like us, as soon as the drama with Alice started that had sobered up, but now that the stress was over, it was flooding back, as well as the adrenaline rush that everyone was coming down from.

I pulled her onto my lap and sighed in content. She smelled amazing and there was nothing I liked more than to have her warm, soft body in my arms.

"Did you have a good time?" She asked with a bright smile and she rested her head against my chest.

"Yes, I did. I missed you, though." I admitted, kissing her forehead.

She smiled and brushed her lips against mine. "I missed you, too."

"Please, I know your both lost in the moment, but no sex in the hospital waiting room. Children are about to be born here." Emmett chuckled, while he all but groped Rosalie, who was too busy eating chocolate and batting his hand away to be 'lost in the moment'.

Bella just giggled and then went to join Rosalie on her food binge.

Oh, god, how I loved this woman. She was bright and funny and sweet and sexier than hell and she loved my friends. She blended with them in a way that Tanya never did and that's just another thing I loved about her. She could tease and joke around with Emmett, shop with Alice, discuss wars and history with Jasper, out sass Rosalie, all the while being the woman I loved more than life. Bella wasn't just a girl who I loved, she was also one of my best friends and I think that is what made love special. To have that friendship on top of the heat of being together, of the love you felt, you actually liked being around this person and found them interesting.

After a few minutes Bella and Rosalie were sitting on the floor enjoying their picnic, only moving when they wanted more chocolate. I was talking to Emmett whilst idly playing with Bella's hair when Jasper came walking out with a big grin on his face.

"She's here." Was all he said, but his joy and pride rang out in each word.

We all quickly made our way into Alice's room. Bella sighed; she was excited and hated to have to move at Earth speed as she called it.

Alice was on the bed with a small bundle in her arms, wrapped up in a pink blanket. The sound of a babies crying sounded at the room.

We all smiled in joy as we went to greet Alice and Jaspers daughter.
