Jake's POV
"I am not being paranoid, Emily. I hear the little heartbeat," I say. Emily rolls her eyes and pulls the sheets closer around her as she rolls onto her side to face away from me. I throw my hands into the air and go to sit on the floor by the door. Emily turns to face me and looks at me with sad eyes.
"Jake, you are just overreacting because I am sick a day after we become a couple. I am not like you, so getting sick like this is normal and you are going to have to get used to it," Emily says.
"Em, I know what I heard," I say, once she is done talking. "I heard the heartbeat and and I can hear it now coming from you."
"Alright, we will wait and see what it is you are hearing when we go to the doctor's tomorrow," Emily says.
"Fine, now get some rest," I say. Emily smiles a little when I get up to kiss the top of her head before leaving the room to go see if there is any more lasagna left. Dad is already asleep in bed, leaving me alone with food and the television.
I wake up the next morning to Charlie and dad talking in the kitchen. Emily's gentle breathing is near my ear and she is snuggling against me, while in my arms. I don't remember come to my bed, but I am in my bed with Emily and the strange heartbeat. Emily groans in her sleep and rolls away from me. This gives me the chance to sneak out of the bed and go to the kitchen. Charlie looks like he has been crying all night and has not slept.
"Hey Charlie, what is going on?" I ask politely, while going to get breakfast for me and Emily when she wakes up.
"Bella has run off because of that Cullen boy again. Apparently she did not learn from when he left her brokenhearted," Charlie says with a raspy voice.
"I am sure she is safe," dad says. Charlie only nods and sips his coffee. "How is Emily feeling, Jake?"
"Emily is still here?" Charlie asks with a raised eyebrow. I join them at the table with a wide, triumphant smile. It felt great to be the only guy at the table with a woman in my bed that loves me.
"Yes, Charlie, Emily is still here and currently sleeping in my bed. And to dad, I am not sure how she is feeling this morning as of yet," I say. The soft patter pf Emily's feet is heard quickly. The three of turn to see a sleep ruffled Emily wearing my t-shirt and a pair of my... boxers? How in the world did she find those in my room?
"I am feeling fine, but I am sure Jacob is going to make me go to the doctor's to make sure," Emily teases with a large smile. I smile back when she joins me with the breakfast I set out for two. "How are you two gentlemen this morning?"
"Bella has taken off after her ex-boyfriend, that Cullen boy, after he broke her heart and Jake helped fix it," Charlie says. Emily stiffens a little and hides it behind her smile. She might kill me later for being reminded about my "relationship" with Bella.
"I hope everything is alright and she returns home safely," Emily says. She reaches under the table and squeezes my thigh as hard as she can.
"If she comes back in the next few days, what is to happen with your plans?" I ask to distract myself from Emily's claws in my leg.
"Bella will be punished and we will see about the trip," Charlie says. "But Billy and I better get going if we are going to make our fishing trip in Billy's honour."
"You two are going to be alright while I am gone?" dad asks with a raised eyebrow to us.
"We will be okay, dad," I say, trying not to roll my eyes. Dad and Charlie chuckle as they leave the table to go get ready. I get up to clear my plate and just as I turn to talk to Emily about the appointment, Emily runs to the bathroom to empty out the breakfast she just had. I run after her to rub her back and to hold her hair back.
"I guess I am not better like I thought I was," Emily murmurs.
"Hey, at least you are getting it checked out later," I mutter soothingly, before kissing the top of her head. "Why don't you take a shower first and I can runs to Sam's to get the rest of your things?"
But, I don't want to be alone," Emily pouts.
"Alright, I shower first and then we go to Sam's to get the rest of your things and to let you shower," I chuckle.
"Deal," Emily says with a smile. We get up and start to get ready.
Sam walks out of the house when we pull up into the drive with my Rabbit. Emily is back in her clothes that she had quickly packed yesterday. She nods to Sam as she walks up the front steps to shower and collect the rest of her things. I smile at Sam as I follow Emily in.
"She has been with you this whole time?" Sam growls, while following me. I shrug and I go to get something to drink. "Jacob, answer my question right now."
"Yes, Emily has been at my house," I hiss. Leah walks in from her patrol, from my guess, and blinks a times at me.
"What are you doing here?" Leah scowls.
"Emily wanted to shower here and get the rest of her things before our appointment later," I say, pouring myself some apple juice.
"What appointment?" Sam and Leah quickly ask in unison.
"Jake, could you come get this bag and put it in the car?" Emily asks from the top of the stairs.
"You two can read each other's minds and that is creepy," I point out to Sam and Leah, before jogging up the stairs to help Emily. She is standing at the top of the stairs with a wide Cheshire cat on her face. "What are smiling about?"
"Sam and Leah's reaction to me being at your house," Emily says.
"I see," I try not to chuckle. Emily hands me a bag and kisses my lips before running to go shower. I take the bag to my car and walk inside to Sam and Leah with concerned looks on their faces.
"Jacob, is Emily staying at your house from now on?" Sam asks.
"Yes, she told my dad about feeling bad for being here when the two of you need your private moments," I say.
"Emily has never been in the way," Sam says. Leah growls a little, but recoils when Sam turns to look at her. "Why are you taking Emily to the doctor?"
"Because she has not been feeling too good this morning and yesterday," I say. Emily comes downstairs with another bag and her hair still a little damp. I take the bag from her and we silently walk to the car.
Emily checks in the receptionist, while I go to find us a seat. I sit down and sigh when Emily turns and walks over with a clipboard in her hands. I rub her back while she fills out a piece of paper.
"You feeling alright, baby," I ask softly.
"Just a little nauseated is all. It will soon pass,"Emily sighs.
"At least when we get inside, the doctor will be able to tell us what is going on," I say. Emily takes the paper back to the receptionist and comes back, putting her head on my shoulder. I kiss the top of her head and put my arm around her shoulders to hold her close.
"Ms. Young," a nurse calls. Emily stands up and keeps a tight grip on my hand as she pulls me with her to the room. The nurse does a quick check on Emily before the doctor comes in. I am too busy in my mind hoping and praying that Emily is going to be okay when the doctor asks her about her last period and then tells her to go pee in a cup. How does peeing in a damn cup determine if she is pregnant or not and how is going to help us find out what is wrong with her? I think the doctor is a retard and not worth our time and money. Emily steps into the bathroom attached to the room to pee in the retarded cup.
"You are Ms. Young's boyfriend?" the doctor asks me.
"Yes, I am Jacob Black," I say. Emily comes back out with the cup of pee and a red face. I smile at her embarrassment of me seeing the cup of pee.
"Thank you," the doctor says. He pulls out a white strip out of a drawer. "Now we will use this strip to test if you are pregnant."
"Dumb question, how does it tell us that she is pregnant?" I ask. Emily squeezes my arm and I try to stifle my gasp at the surprise attack.
"I get the question quite often. When a woman is pregnant, she releases a chemical in her pee. This strip will turn blue from the chemical," the doctor says, while dipping the strip into the cup of pee.
"Dear god,"Emily mutters. I stare at the strip that has turned blue.
"Congratulations, you two are going to parents," the doctor says. My heart races fast and all I hear is the beating of before I pass out form the shock of Emily finally being mine and now we are about to be parents.
