Rosalie's POV:
It has been 2 whole months, and I still hadn't told Jacob that he had a child. I would've had to tell him eventually... But I could prevent him ever knowing.
"Baby," he said that day. As always, his dark hair was in waves, and his tan skin was smooth. His arms and will were strong, and his heart—beautiful. I kept taking him in. How could I have ever doubted Edward when he brought Bella home? Why have I been missing out all these decades? I need a true love! And here he was… but alas, I could not have him.
"Yes, honey?" I replied.
"You putting on weight, sugar?" he said. "Not that it matters. I love you, baby."
He planted a loving and comforting kiss on my cheek, and took me in his arms. I knew he would always love me. I could just tell… he would never leave me. How could I ever betray my love?
"I--" I paused. Should I tell him? It might make things better, or worse. I decided to tell the truth.
"Yeah, honey, I guess I am getting heavier," I said. It was, after all, the truth. I didn't like not telling him the entire thing… but it was necessary. "Honey, I've got to ask you something."
"Anything, baby. Anything," he told me, kissing me forehead and neck some more. Then he sighed. "Oh, Rosalie, baby…"
"I-- Baby, will you remember one thing, if it's the only thing you remember?" I wanted to be sure.
"Of course, Rosalie, sugar. Anything for you, baby." Jacob paused in his kissing, and looked up at me with his hazel eyes I loved so much. They stared, questioning.
"I love you, honey."
He laughed, and started kissing me, on the lips this time, which is actually no good when you're trying to give someone a talking to. He finally pulled away, eyes sparkling.
"Jacob… I… I really do love you, honey," I encouraged. "I don't know if I could live without you."
It was true… but I would be testing myself. I had to live for the baby, anyhow. Maybe one day… if the baby was normal enough, I could send her back to her father… but her father wasn't ready for a baby, either. By then… he wouldn't want her or me anymore.
"Oh, Rosalie," he said. "What would I do without you? You are my entire day, love."
This was going in the wrong direction.
"I have to go, honey," I said. "Remember, baby. I love you, so much. Remember!"
Jacob only smiled, his eyes twinkling and sparkling again. He tried to put on a sad puppy face, and gave me one last kiss on my forehead before I went outside to my car. I waved, and did my best to smile. I was happy—but not for long.
I was lost in myself.
And he had no idea...
I would never see him again.
