Chapter 12:

After a couple months of healing, I was doing pretty good. I started teaching again in the fall and then Edward and I decided to try to have a baby again. We talked all of it out the day after I got home from the hospital and have not spoken about it since. As of right now, I am waiting for Edward to come home so I can show him the positive pregnancy test. When I heard the front door open I ran to it and he had a big smile on his face when he saw mine.

"Guess what?" I said and he walked over and engulfed me into a hug then pulled away and kissed me.

"What?" he asked.

"I'm pregnent," I whispered and he started laughing for no reason at all because he was so overjoyed. He kissed me and picked me up again to spin me around.

~*~

Nothing went wrong with the pregnancy this time. I am now 6 months in and having a baby girl. Edward and I are discussing names right now on our living room couch while Esme and Alice start working on the nursery.

It took a while to come up with a name, but after a week or so we came up with the perfect name. Her name will be Jensen Marie. I had gotten my middle name from my mother so I thought it only felt right to pass it on again. Edward loved the name Jensen so we just decided on that.

~JENSEN'S ONE YEAR BDAY PARTY~

"Make a wish and blow out the candle," I said while Jensen was sitting on my lap. She is just so beautiful and I could not have been more blessed with a beautiful baby like Jensen. And the best part is that she is quiet and does not cry as often. I love her with everything I am and so does Edward.

She has all of Edward's features thank goodness except she has my brown hair and brown eyes. Jensen is a total Daddy's girl. She loves Edward and you can tell even though she is only one. I can already tell what it will be like when she is a teenager.

When Bethanie came over to help Jensen we all clapped and Esme took a picture of Edward, Jensen and I.

Esme took Jensen away for a bit to give us a break. Edward wrapped his arms around me from behind.

"I can't believe she is already one years old," he said sadly and I laughed and nodded in agreement.

"Well time flies pretty quickly."

"Are we going to have any more kids?" he asked suddenly and I thought about it.

"Do you want to?"

"Yes," he said truthfully.

"Okay," I said.

"So we are going to have another one?"

"Sure," I said and he got all excited and turned me around and kissed me. I smiled and he whispered, "I love you."

~*~

Edward and I had to try for 5 months just to get pregnant again and it finally happened. This time we are having a boy. I told Edward that I don't think I can handle carrying another child and he laughed and said okay.

We decided to name him Conner Maysen. I got to pick his first name this time. It is funny how everything worked the other way this time. Conner has all of my features with Edward's bronze hair and green eyes and he is a Mama's boy for sure. I know that he will definantely be a total ladie's man having Edward's hair and eyes.

~JENSEN IS 15 AND CONNER IS 14~

EDWARD'S POV:

"Okay Jen, slowly pull out. Make sure you look both ways before doing so," I told Jensen. I was giving her a driving lesson for the millionth time. Bella got the joy of being the first with her behind the wheel. I can't believe she is already driving. I remember her just being 5 and wanting to go to the park and now all she cares about is finding a date for Homecoming or hanging out with friends. Now she is going to be 16 and I don't know what will happen. Jensen hit the gas hard and slowed it down a bit, but being nervous I yelled at her.

"JEN! Slow!! Didn't I tell you slow?!"

"Dad, I'm sorry. I just hit the gas a little too hard. No worries, just relax. I am going to be 16 in a week, I have been doing this for 6 months. I am fine," she said cooly and I sighed and rolled my eyes. She looked so much like Bella and was so beautiful.

When we got home I found Bella making dinner and Conner watching TV. I ruffled his hair and he complained. I just smiled at him and went over to give Bella a kiss.

"Is she ready?" Bella asked after I said hello and Jensen walked in.

"Yes, of course I am."

"Now, Jen, I didn't answer yet. But yes, she is. I can't believe she will be 16," I said and Bella nodded in agreement.

"Geez we are old," she said and I laughed and nodded.

After all of the kids were in bed, which was around 10, Bella and I got a chance to talk.

"Do you think we should get her a car?" I asked Bella and she seemed to consider it.

"Well we can afford one, but I am just worried because that gives her a lot of freedom."

"Well I think that we can trust her. I mean she has done nothing wrong, she has good grades and her boyfriend is a good guy."

"Yep," Bella said and I laughed. "I guess your right. But we definantely have to set some ground rules."

"Okay," I said.

We went out the next day to look at cars. I remember Jensen telling me that she wants a Nissan Sentra. We looked at all of the models and decided to get her a white one. Knowing her, she will be greatful no matter what. Or she better be.

I told Jensen that she couldn't have a big party because we couldn't afford it. That was a lie, but I am in no mood to give her this and throw a party. So I agreed that she could have a couple friends over.

She was ecstatic as I predicted. Bella and I gave her rules to follow and her consequences if she doesn't. Supprizingly I really like Hayden, her boyfriend, but I am just worried. He is a smart kid, funny, nice and treats her well, but you never know with boys. Boy was I scared for her to be 16. That was definantely the year I became a rebel.

BELLA'S POV:

Edward and I were just laying down watching a movie when Jensen walked in.

"Mom? Can I talk to you in my room?" she asked me and I nodded and walked with her until we were there.

"Whats up?" I asked and she looked a little nervous. As far as I know she is still a virgin, and hopefully that has remained the same.

"I wanted to talk to you about something."

"Sex?"

"How'd you know?"

"A mother always knows. Are you still a virgin?" I asked just to make sure.

"Mom! How could you even ask that?! Don't you think I would have told you if I wasn't?"

"I am just making sure. Do I need to put you on the pill? I know that you and Hayden have been dating for a long time and I am not an idiot. If you are planning on having sex I need you to be safe."

"Well, I don't know. We were talking the other day about it and he said he was ready, but I don't know if I am and I just don't want him to break up with me if I tell him that," she said and then I knew exactly what to say. I told her the story about Jake from way back then and she listened and took in the advice to know if it is right or not.

"So what I am trying to say is that if you are not ready, you need to tell him and if he bothers you about it then you break it off with him. I know it will be hard, but in the long run you will be greatful for it unlike I was."

"Thanks," she said and I gave her a hug and started walking out. "Hey mom?"

"Yeah?"

"What if I am ready? Would that make you angry?"

"No. It is your body. I just hope you know that he will always be with you if he becomes your first. But if you really are ready I am getting you on the pill. Even if you are not sure, I am still going to put you on it just in case," I said.

"Okay," she said and let out a big sigh. "Thank you, Mom. I love you. Good night," she said and I told her the same.

Edward was a little squirmy about the idea of Jensen having sex, but the reality is that if we don't do anything about it, it will bite us in the butt. He agreed with what I said to her after some thought and then we finally went to sleep.
