Chapter 10

Maria POV

"Sam wants to meet the baby." The other one, Jared I think it was.

"Well you tell him that he can come here. We aren't even allowed to cross the line." Jasper hissed at the boys.

"We have nothing to hide about the baby. He's the same as any of us. He won't kill anyone." I said as Paul stepped closer to see the baby and Jasper growled at the boy. "Jasper, he's not going to harm the baby."

"Fine." Paul came and looked at the baby.

"Why does he look like a normal child?" The boy asked.

"Because he's only 3/4 vampire. He has blood flowling in his veins. His father a full Vampire. His mother, only half. I have a frozen heart but I also have blood flowing through my veins, that is why I am able to breath just like you and the others. If Sam wants to come and meet my son he may, but on one condition, he has to swear to not harm any of us or him. Or there will be war between the wolves and Vampires." The boys nodded and ran off while Jasper came to my side.

"I knew you would always be a kind soul but have that fire in you that I would never trade for the world." He kissed my head and we both smiled but no at eachother when Nick started to get fussy about the attention not being on him for once.

"Let's get on home, Carlisle wants to check over Nick." Jasper said and we both ran back to the family house. The boys all day had been making up Nick's room all day with Rose and Alice watching them to make sure they did it right.

Once we got to the Family house Esme came and took her great-grandchild out of my arms and ran back into the house while Emmett came out and threw me over his shoulder.

"Let me down you big bafoon!" I yelled while hitting my uncle's back while he laughed and kept saying no. Rose sat in the living room looking at a magazine but looked up with a smile when she heard us enter and shook her head.

"Let the girl go, Emmett." Rose said and the grizzly bear built man put me down. I sat on the couch next to Rose until Dad and Bella came down.

"Where's Nick? Bella wants to meet him." Dad asked when he saw me and Jasper and the rest of the family but no baby.

"Carlisle is checking on him." Jasper answered without looking up from the TV which had football on.

"Which I am now done." Rose and I ran for Carlisle to get my child and I beat her to him and he handed me Nick.

"Damn." She muttered under her breath.

I walked over to my father and he smiled at his grandson.

"He looks like a normal baby." Bella said in curiosity.

"Just as we look like normal humans. But we sparkle." Dad said.

"And we're super pale." Jasper said coming up behind me cooing at Nick.

"He looks just like Jasper." Rose said as everyone crowded around Jasper, Nick and I cooing at the baby.

"He actually looks just like Maria did when she was this old." Dad said and looked up at me with a smile. "I'm proud of you. And I know that your mother is, too." Everyone's smiles dropped.

"She came the day he was born, you know?" I said sadly. "She wanted to hold him and I didn't let her. I told her to pretty much Fuck off."

"That's my girl." Dad grabbed me in a hug after I gave Nick to Rose and I put my arms around him as well. I missed my father. "You know I'm gonna spoil that kid rotten, right?" Everyone laughed at his words and I smiled.

"Yeah, he's already spoiled though. His closet if full for the next hundred years because of Alice and Rose." Jasper said as he pulled me into his arms after my father let go of he.

"Hey! He's gonna need a new outfit every day if he's gonna be my god-kid!" Rose defended.

"I've got him a gift too!" Emmett boomed and brought a small baby baseball and put it in Nick's arms and he smiled which made Jasper and I smile.

"Gotta train him early!" Wesley exclaimed when he saw Carlisle's face of confusion. All the sudden a small white object hit him in the face and when it dropped to the floor we all saw it was the mini soft Baseball. Jasper and I looked at eachother and chuckle while Alice laughed.

"He takes after his Aunt Alice!" Bella smiled at Alice's words like the rest of us.

To me, this is what Family is all about. We might be a little screwed up but you know what? Us making funny memories is all that Family is about. Being there for eachother when needed. This is all I should ever need. I've got a son with my Mate whom I love. I've got two aunts that are more like sisters, two uncles that are like brothers, a father, a soon-to-be step-mother, and a pair of Grandparents. All of these people would die for me, just as I would do them.
