Extreamly exited to post this chapter, don't know why, I just liked this chapter from the moment I started writing it. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I did!

Nessie's POV

I don't wake up early enough to say goodbye to Jacob before they take him in the surgery, and I'm furious no one woke me!

I pace back and forth across my little room. "You know I wanted to be there!" I snap at them.

"We asked Jacob if he wanted to see you and he said 'let her sleep.'" Dad explains.

"I don't care what Jacob said! You should have woken me!"

Mom comes over and wraps me in a hug. My anger dissolves and I start crying. Again. "I'm so scared, I know the odds are that nothing will happen, but there is a chance."

"Sweetie," Mom says, brushing away tears from my cheeks. "Carlisle's in there, he won't let anything happen to Jacob."

"I know." I mutter. I know all my panicking has been really stupid and pointless, but I can't suppress it.

"He's been in for about forty minutes. I'm sure they'll be bringing him out very soon, and then you can see him."

I nod and she goes to sit back down with dad.

I wanted to tell him I love him and I wanted to thank him for this, and for everything, while he was actually awake. And I wanted to hold his hand as long as I could until they took him into the operating room. I really just wanted him to know that even though I was not happy about his decision, its just because I'm scared for him but that I support him and whether this puts me into remission or not, I'm so grateful.

I stare at the wall for I don't know how long, trying not to imagine Jacob on a cold, metal operating table.

The door opens and Grandpa comes in. That means the surgery is done then. He wouldn't leave during the surgery right?

He sees the anticipation on my face and immediately says "He's fine."

I practically jump on him in relief. "Thank you." I breath.

Grandpa pats my back and lets me go.

"Where is he?" I ask.

"He's downstairs in recovery."

"Can I see him?"

"Not yet, he's still asleep. You can see him as soon as we bring him up to his room.

I sigh, preparing for another long wait. Then Grandpa looks at his watch. "Which should be in about ten minutes."

Grandpa slips out so he can be there when Jacob wakes up, and I start pacing again.

"Honey, he's okay. You can relax." Dad reminds me.

"I know. I know." But I don't stop walking from the door to the window.

As Grandpa said, only eleven minutes later a nurse comes to the door and says one of us at a time can come see him. She holds open the door for me and I run, literally run, past her. Then I stop in front of his door, taking a breath, then opening it.

Jacob's propped up in bed, when he sees me he gives a half smile. Its obvious he's a little dopey from the anesthesia.

I lean over the side of the bed and kiss him so hard that he winces.

"Sorry." I say, pulling back.

"S'okay. Still a little sore."

"You feel okay though right?" I ask frantically.

"I feel fine Ness, calm down before you have a heart attack."

"I'm just so happy. Your okay, your actually okay."

"What'd I tell ya?"

I kiss him a lot gentler this time, I pause with my hands on either side of his face and tell him what I wanted to before the surgery. "Thank you. Thank you so much. I'm sorry I was freaking out so much before, I was just so scared and now your okay and everything's okay. Thank you thank you thank you." Before I kiss him again.

"Get up here." Jacob says, slowly patting the space beside him. He doesn't have to ask me twice. I try as carefully as possible to get on, but the movement still him cringe.

"Does it hurt really bad?" I ask.

"Not as bad as I thought. But that's probably because of all the meds. Its like when that vampire broke half my body, Carlisle doesn't know the right dose to give me and I think he went a little overboard."

"Well, that's better then being in pain."

"Guess so."

He's slowly starting to look more focused.

"Jacob, I am so proud and amazed and simply grateful that you did this. I don't care if it works or not, you tried."

Jacobs POV

I'm up earlier then normal the next morning, waiting for the nurses to come and prep me. But instead of the nurses being the first people that come in are Edward and Bella.

Bella hugs me. "Your the best Jake. You didn't have to do this, and I'm glad you did."

"I need to help her in any way possible."

"Jacob," Edward says. "Your really part of the family, and as part of the family you should start living with us all the time."

I'm a little stunned. I have a room at the Cullen house, and though I'm aloud to stay over when ever I want, it's never been more then a few days. I never thought I was welcome more then that.

"Uh, yeah. That would be, cool. It'll be nice to get out of Billy's old place."

"You can move in whenever your ready."

"As soon as this is over." Bella insists.

Then the nurses start coming in. I try to keep calm, but I'm starting to get scared. I've never been in the hospital for anything, never had surgery before, this isn't as easy as I thought. A single thought of Nessie though and the fear goes away. I'm doing this for her. This will help her. And what she's gone through has to have been worse then this.

"Would you like us to get her?" Edward asks.

"No! She doesn't need to freak out more then she already is. Let her sleep until its over."

Edward and Bella stay with me until the nurses tell them they need to leave. Bella hugs me one last time and Edward smiles before they go.

A few seconds later an IV is stuck in my wrist and in only a moment I'm feeling tired. I give in, wanting to do this as soon as possible so it can go to Nessie sooner.

Comment! It only takes a second! Tell me what your thinking of the story, because I love to know what other people think!
