So here is the next chapter! I'm not quite sure where this story is going…. It needs more excitement or something…. Maybe romance…. Maybe something different….Hmmm… I'll see what I can do!

Chapter 10 – Ben's Complicated Life

25TH APRIL, 2007

BEN'S POV

Come on! It has to work! I thought, frustrated that I couldn't phase. Tried to reach within me, find the wolf, but it was hopeless.

"Benny what are you doing?" I heard Mum ask. I looked up from where I was on the ground with my toys.

"Nuffing." I replied. It is so annoying not being able to talk properly. I can do it in my head, but not out loud. I may be 7 months old, but really I'm like eight times older. So I'm like a really smart 5 year old, that everyone thinks is technically a 3 and a half year old in a 7 month body. Life is complicated.

"Are you trying to phase again?" Mum asked sternly, not giving up.

"No." I lied. Unfortunately, she could see right through it.

"Benjamin! You have to stop! You could hurt yourself, and you know it's no use. Grandpa Carlisle said he would find a cure, and I believe him. Don't you?" Mum was practically pleading. I hated to be the cause of her pain.

"Yes mummy." I nodded, lowering my eyes.

"Good boy." Mum praised me. "Oh look, Daddy's home!" she added.

"Yay! Daddio!" I toddled toward him as he came in the door. He scooped me up hugging me into his chest. The only place I ever felt safe was in Mum or Dad's arms. Sometimes both.

"You're getting heavier Ben." Dad told me. I was glad I was still growing, even though I couldn't phase. Those vampires were very wrong to cross the Wolf Pack.

*Flashback*

I smelt that sickly sweet smell in the air, making my nose burn. I growled, looking towards the direction it was coming.

"Ben, what is it?" I heard Aunty Emily say from behind me. I felt myself shaking, and then my wolf took over. I bounded into the forest and I heard Aunty Emily screaming first my name, then Uncle Sam's'.

Before I knew it, a vampire was on me, holding me down. Another shoved a needle roughly into my arm, and I howled as I phased back to my human form. I was blind-folded and bound, but they had they decency to put some clothes on me.

I was sat in a baby seat and we drove for hours. My nose was on fire, it was all too much…

Every day, they would give me a needle. No matter how much I struggled, they would manage to do it. Every second of every day, I would try to phase, but it never worked. I thought I would die…

*End of Flashback*

"Ben?" I heard Dad say. I shook my head to clear it.

"Yes Daddy?" I asked.

"Mum just asked if you wanted dinner." He told me.

"Yay, food!" I exclaimed because I loved my food. As I sat eating my pasta (I'm also advanced when it came to eating) I thought of my imprint, Jayde. I think about her quite often.

I loved her eyes, dark and beautiful. Even though she found it fun to hit me, I still loved her. Or 'lobe' as I say. I just can't get the 'v' out, it frustrated me. Sometimes I thought it was unfair that my love was already picked, but I think I might have ended up with Jayde anyway. Life was weird that way sometimes. Or so I heard from Embry's mind one time when I was phased.

Phasing with teenage boy has meant I've seen a few things that aren't exactly 'G' in the movie rating. In fact, I think I've seen a bit too much 'R'. Dad and I agreed to never tell mum that. She would probably kill everyone with her bare hands.

I finished my pasta, and mum got me a fruit stick.

"I wuv you mum!" I said as she went back into the kitchen.

"I love you too Ben." She replied. I wished I could actually pronounce it as 'love' instead of 'wuv'. Life really is complicated.

(A/N) – Oh god, I was so sad writing that. About the flashback and how he can't talk, and can't do everything he has the potential to do… D: poor thing, I never really thought about it until now…)

BELLA'S POV

"So, I think it's time we thought of a name for the baby." I suggested as we sat at the table, eating breakfast.

"Hmm, I was thinking about that last night." Jake nodded.

"Okay, good. Any ideas?" I asked, putting my spoon down and turning to face him.

"Well I want her middle name to be Marie, just like yours." He said, and I blushed.

"Oh honey, that's so sweet, but are you sure?" I asked, flattered.

"Of course I am." He smiled warmly.

"Okay so now all we need is a first name…" I trailed off.

"How about… Macey?" Jacob suggested half-heartedly.

"Macey Marie?" I asked,

"Hmm, maybe not." He laughed.

"Maybe, Quinn!" I suggested. Jake smiled and nodded.

"No!" Ben protested.

"Do you have an idea Benny?" Jacob asked him.

"Hmm…. Cleo!" he said. I had no idea where he had got that name, but I loved it.

"Cleo Marie Black…" Jacob contemplated.

"Perfect!" We all agreed at the same time. It was really weird, so we all laughed.

So what do you think of Cleo Marie Black? I was going to call her Quinn but then there is Quil so I thought it was too similar. But I can still change it so if you have any suggestion review and tell me .Review and tell me what you think of Cleo too!

Love Kaitlyn
