Chapter 10
Finally the graduation party had come. I had Jacob go pick up the car for Edward since Alice had already ruined the surprise. Edward loved the car very much and Bella was mad that he had yet another thing that would make him go fast, even after becoming a vampire mom never liked going too fast. When all the guest showed up for the party they spoke of the future. No wanting them to find out about the pregnancy we told them I was attending a boarding school in Europe during the summer. The only person who seemed to care was my only human friend Claire. "But if you finish school there this summer who will I hang out with?" In a way I understood but at the same time this would make it easier since we would be leaving soon anyway.
Our lives continued on in our normal way for the next three months. Carlisle made me get an alter sound every week just to be sure everything was "normal", and Emse made sure that I ate plenty of food; while Edward forced me to go hunting twice a week. Whenever I had an urge to go running I would have to have someone go with me incase something would happen to me, I always took either Jacob or Jasper because they let me feel alone.
At what we assumed was the four months marker Carlisle had me get my weekly alter sound and we found something weird. He found the typical baby stuff but he heard two heart beats. I paid extreme attention to this because neither one was mine as Carlisle already knew, and this was the first time he had heard it. The really weird thing was that the picture showed nothing weird. We continued to watch the pictures more carefully and still nothing was found.
Everyone in the house seemed to be worried about what this could mean, and the only time I felt calm was when I was around Jasper. Needless to say Alice wanted Jasper to be around me as much as possible. She knew that if I was stressed all the time that the baby would be harmed and so would I. It was a bit annoying that everywhere I turned Jasper was right around the corner making me feel differently than I really wanted to.
Mom called Charlie, my grandfather, for our monthly update thankfully she did not tell him about me being pregnant. Unfortunately Jacob wasn't as helpful with his father, Billy. They talked far less then Bella and Charlie, so Jacob gave him as much information as possible. We knew it was only a matter of time before Billy would tell Charlie and then we would have a real problem.
The problem with Billy was that he was never really happy about who Jacob had married. If I had been a normal girl Billy's blessing would have been easy to come by. However being half vampire and marrying a werewolf made him very upset. Being a vampire was a wonderful thing in some ways, but it made having friends and a family very hard; especially when the family had always been told to hate part of me.
Jacob has learned to cope with the fact that him and Billy will never be as close as they once were, but I still feel guilty for making him leave the one person who has always been there for him. I to love Billy but will never admit it to him because it would just make our relationship too difficult. I hope deep down he really loves me to, or that at least he can love the child that is both part of me and Jacob.
