Chapter 6- I bruise Easily: Natasha Bedingfield

Anna's P.O.V.

Four months, 14 days, six hours, and 27 minutes since I lost my parents and I can already feel the emptiness being filled up. Uh oh, La Push is growing on me… just kidding. I love it here! I made up with Embry the other day; he'll stay out of my stuff if I stay away from Paul. Like that's gonna happen, fat chance! Paul and I have been going out for, about, a month; he's my world. I never thought that I could fall for a guy so hard and fast! Paul's so amazing… I'm glad I listen to Kristen. Speaking of Kristen, she's been so… on cloud nine, since she's been dating Jared. She's more open and happy, now; he's even convinced her to do the talent show at the end of the school year! Of course, she picks the song that she performs… My phone vibrated… speak of the devil.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Where the hell are you?" shouted Kristen.

"I'm almost finished packing, calm down! Enlighten me, why are we going camping in the middle of October?"

"Because, I said so… Now, come on, I'm waiting outside your house!"

"Okay! Okay!"

I hung up my phone and grabbed my bag, running down the stairs. I grabbed my keys and shut the door behind me. Kristen was waiting in her truck, as promised, and I hopped into the passenger seat. She pulled out of the driveway and started driving towards the cliffs of La Push Beach. When we arrived I smiled and scrambled out of her truck and into the arms of my Paulie. He smiled, too, and our lips connected, instantly. I sighed and so did he as out lips parted. I looked over and saw Jared wrap his arms around Kristen's waist and their lips met, kissing passionately and hungrily, moving in perfect synchronization. Paul picked me up and set me on his lap as he sat on a rock; Jared and Kristen came over to us, holding hands.

"We're gonna go swimming," smiled Kristen, "Wanna join?"

"I don't have a bathing suit with me!" I complained.

"So? I don't either! It's called 'skinny dipping', Anna."

"But I- I- I've never been naked in front of Paul or anyone, really!"

"Neither have I; there's a first time for everything!" I rolled my eyes and she waved her hand, dismissively, "Whatever…"

Jared's P.O.V.

I watched, intently, as Kristen started stripping down. I bit my lip as I saw more and more of her pale skin, glowing in the moonlight. She was down to her bra and panties; I stood in front of her and stopped her from taking anything else off, I already had a major hard- on. I towed her off into the forest and pushed her up against a tree. I started kissing her and moved down her neck, stopping to kiss the tops of her tit, She was moaning as I gripped her thighs and she wrapped them around my waist. I groaned and ground my hips into her; she pushed back and groaned in response. I just had to know…

"Can I do something to you?" I asked.

She nodded and I lowered her legs and took her panties off her.

Anna's P.O.V.

"Well," I started, "I guess I can strip down, now that they're gone."

"Really?" his face lit up.

"Just down to my bra and panties." I giggled.

"Whatever makes you comfortable, babe."

I faced away from him and stripped down to my bra and panties. When only in those two pieces of clothing, I felt Paul behind me. He wrapped his arms around me and rested his hands on my stomach and he started kissing my shoulders. I sighed/moaned and he moved my hair to the side; he gasped and ran his fingertip over the nape of my neck.

"Do I get my name tattooed onto your skin, someday," he asked.

"Huh?" I responded.

"Dakota Ty Montgomery?"

I sighed, deeply, and walked away from his warm embrace, sitting on a fallen tree. He knelt down in front of me and wrapped his arms around my knees, resting his head on them as he looked up into my watering eyes.

"What did I say?" He asked, clearly worried that he'd hurt me.

I sniffled and wiped away my tears, "That's not a boyfriend's name, Paul. It's my son's name…"

"I- I didn't know that you had a kid."

"Yeah… had…"

"What happened? Did you give him up for adoption?"

"No… It's better if I tell you the whole story."

Flashback

"Why do you care, Ty?" I shouted.

"Because, you are my girlfriend!" He yelled back.

"He's just a friend!"

"He flirts with you, constantly! You don't see the looks he gives you; the looks only your boyfriend should give you! I don't like him hanging around you like that!"

"You knew what you were getting yourself into when you asked me out, Ty!"

I groaned in pain as I felt our baby kicking, inside of me. Us fighting is not helping my pregnancy, at all. If anything, it's making it worse… Ty sighed, deeply, and squeezed my hand.

"I'm sorry, Anna," he sighed.

"I know…" I responded, squeezing his hand in return. I glanced over his shoulders and saw light approaching, quickly, "Ty, look out!"

Ty swerved and looked over at me as the car jerked and I heard the sound of metal crunching and glass breaking. I was jerked towards my door, then the roof, then towards Ty, then downwards. I don't know how many times I was thrown around those ways but, when it stopped, we were upside down. The baby was kicking non-stop and I looked over at Ty. His head was all bloody and his blonde hair was soaked with blood. He looked over at me and I realized that our hands were still together.

"Anna," he rasped out.

"I'm right here, Ty," I sobbed.

"It hurts so bad…" he closed his eyes.

"Ty… stay with me! Ty! Please!" tears started flowing uncontrollably, "Don't leave me, Ty!"

"Anna… I love you…"

"No! Ty, you can't leave me! What about the baby? Please, Ty, come back to me! No! No! No! Ty, please, I need you! I love you, Ty, please!"

The last thing I remembered was seeing flashing lights, before blacking out. I woke up in a hospital bed and started freaking out. The nurses came rushing in and refrained me from getting up. I kept mumbling about seeing Ty and having to see him. The doctor came in and I relaxed a little, I lay back down and listened to what he had to say. According to the doctor, Ty was still unconscious and I had minor injuries, compared to him, I would also have to have a drug-induced labor. Two hours later I was holding a beautiful baby boy, which was the spitting image of his father, in my arms. I gave him back to the nurses and they took him to the nick-u because he was 12 weeks early and I was informed that Ty was up. I was escorted to his room and then the nurse left me. I went inside and gasped when I saw him; he had casts on both legs, a cast and brace on his right arm, and a neck brace on. He saw me and smiled, lightly; I sat down next to him and a nurse came in, pushing an incubator. He looked at me and I nodded; the nurse handed him to me and I went back over to Ty.

"Meet your son," I held him close to Ty.

Ty ran his good hand over our child's face and a tear fell from his eye, "He's… wow…"

"I know… he looks like his daddy."

"Miss," started the nurse, "We need to take him back to nick-u for the night."

"Of course…" I handed him back.

"A name?" asked Ty.

"Dakota Ty Montgomery," I blushed.

"My name with my first and middle switched…" I nodded, "Perfect… you should go get some sleep, Anna."

"But-"

"No… sleep."

"Promise you'll be here when I get up?"

"I'll try… I love you, Anna."

I kissed his lips, once, "I love you, too, Ty."

I went back to my room and settled down in bed. It took a while to get to sleep but I did. I saw flashes of the accident behind my eyelids and gasped as I woke up, panicking, and I felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked over and saw Ty's mom and dad, I relaxed. Dakota was in his grandfather's arms and I smiled.

I sat up, "I want to see, Ty."

Mrs. Montgomery held me back, "Sweetie… Ty's gone…"

"No…"

Tears started streaming and I shut down. I wouldn't talk to anybody and I only held Dakota when he was fussy or when he needed to feed. That night, Dakota was taken to the nick-u and I was informed that he had fluid build up in his lungs. I didn't see him for two days and, eventually, the nurse came in and told me that Dakota had passed away in his sleep.

End of Flashback

"So, two weeks later, I got this tattoo behind my parent's back," I sighed. "January twenty-first was when Dakota… passed away."

"Wow… I'm so sorry…" he responded as he sat beside me and wiped away my tears.

I sniffled and heard giggling and talking; I saw Jared and Kristen coming out of the forest. Kristen stopped laughing and looked at me, worried.

"What's wrong, Anna?" she asked.

"Nothing…" I shook my head.

"come on, Anna," started Jared, "… Paul ain't that ugly!"

My mouthed dropped open and Paul picked up Jared and threw him over the cliffs. I smirked and Kristen looked over the edge.

"You're an ass," shouted Kristen.

"Why don't you join him?" asked Paul as he started stalking towards her.

"Don't you dare!"

Paul picked her up and she screamed as he threw her over the edge, too. I smiled and Paul looked at me.

"Do you have a picture of him?" he asked.

"No… but I can get one." I responded.

He nodded and I looked over the edge and saw Kristen and Jared splashing each other then kiss. I felt arms wrap around my waist and I squeaked. Paul pick me up in his arms, ran away from the edge, then ran towards it and jumped over the edge with me. We splashed into the water and, when we came back up, I splashed water at him and he went underneath the water and pulled me under. He wrapped me in his arms and kissed me, still underwater. It was a different experience and it was… erotic. We came back up for air and Paul carried me onto the beach as Jared carried Kristen. They set us down on a couple logs and left. A few minutes later, they came back with huge blankets, a cooler, and our bags. Paul started a fire and Jared took Kristen on his lap and wrapped the blanket around them. After Paul started the fire, he did the same with me and I sighed in contentment. Paul grabbed the bag of marshmallows, chocolate bars, and graham crackers out of the bag and threw some hotdogs, buns, and ketchup at Jared and Kristen. Paul handed all of us a metal roasting rod and we laughed and talked as we warmed up and ate.

"Hey, have you heard of that crazy old farmer up on that hill?" asked Kristen.

"That one that shoots squirrel?" Laughed Paul, "What's his name, again?"

"Farmer Timmy Brown," exclaimed Jared, laughing.

"Who's Farmer Timmy Brown?" I asked, lost.

"Paul, you never told her?" asked Jared, shocked.

"Nah, man," responded Paul, "I don't think about stuff like that when I'm with Anna."

"Tell me!" I complained.

"I'll tell her!" shouted Kristen. "Farmer Timmy Brown is this crazy farmer with nappy hair, one white eye, one lazy, rotten and messed up teeth, a straw hat, dirty and holey overalls, and always has a piece of straw in his mouth."

"Ew…"

"Yeah… but it's fun to mess with him!"

Jared got an evil grin on his face.

"What?" I asked.

"We should go fuck with him…" he grinned.

"Now?" asked Kristen.

"Yeah…" he snickered, evilly.
