62. At the mercy of the Cullen's

Callie POV

After the first bout of morning sickness I gave up even trying to sleep. After the dream even Jake's presence couldn't calm me down enough to sleep so I just lay there waiting for morning.

"How are you feeling?" Jasper asked as I walked into the hallway where he and Carlisle had camped out last night.

"Crap, I feel so tired." He smiled gently as he followed me into the kitchen.

"Why don't you get out for a bit? Come to our house, it would do you good to get out for a bit." Jasper put a friendly arm on my shoulder.

"I don't know what if Jake needs me?" Part of me wanted to get out of the house and have a few hours to myself but the rest of me knew that Jacob needed me.

"He's got Billy, Rach and Paul will be here plus some of the wolves will probably stop by. You should get out the house for a bit and I want you to get to know my family especially Alice. We won't be around for much longer." He said slightly sadly.

"What?!" I gasped at the thought of him leaving.

"Well we said we'd only stay a month and we've been here weeks already."

"Please stay a bit longer. I'm only just getting to know you." I practically begged him.

"I'll have to clear it with the others but I don't think it will be a problem. So you'll come out with me today?"

"Yeah, for a few hours I think getting out will be good." He grinned at me, obviously happy that he could reintroduce me to his family. Suddenly the phone began ringing, I leapt on it to stop the sound waking everyone in the house.

"Hey." Tammy's chipper voice came through on the other end.

"Tammy? What the fuck are you doing up its six!"

"I'm sorry I haven't been around since Jake got hurt. I shouldn't have left you in the lurch like that." I felt bad because I honestly hadn't noticed her absence.

"Don't worry, I understand." I wasn't the only one that had been affected by my family's death, she hated all illness and injury. In fact her coming to the hospital to see me had been a miracle in itself.

"I hear congratulations are in order!" he giggled loudly down the phone. "I so CANNOT believe it!"

"I know, trust me I can't believe it either. I'm gonna be a Mom!"

"So what do you want- a girl or a boy? And don't give me all that as long as its healthy crap!"

"I honestly wouldn't mind." I started but realised she wouldn't buy it. "Fine I would love a girl but only because a girl would have less of a chance of becoming a werewolf."

"Yeah I understand. I'm gonna be an auntie! Have you thought of any names yet?"

"Yeah for a boy William Kyle and for a girl Maya Tamsin, after her favourite auntie." I actually had to hold the phone away from my ear to stop myself being deafened by her screams. "Tammy even Blobby can hear you."

"Sorry, so the reason I was calling was the girls and I are having a girly shopping trip today. Sp do you fancy coming?"

"I would but I've already promised I'd go to the Cullen's house."

"No problem, you could always meet us in the afternoon in Port Angeles. You can even bring the Cullen girls."

"Well ok, sure." I agreed, wondering what the hell I'd got myself into.


"HOLY SHIT!" I gasped as the car rolled up the driveway to the Cullen's house, or should I say mansion. "You actually live in this?!"

"Yeah, it's not that big and there is a lot of us." Carlisle said from the seat in front of me, he was coming back to the house to get some equipment but he was heading straight back. He still felt bad for not noticing the rib that had almost killed Jacob despite the rest of us trying desperately to tell him it wasn't his fault. But all he kept saying was that if Jake had been a human then he would have died so now he would barely leave his side in case anything else went wrong. I had to say he had dedication. We parked the Mercedes in the garage alongside a dozen or so other amazing cars. Having a Dad who was into mechanics meant I knew a lot about cars and all of these were expensive and utterly beautiful.

"Wow!" I gasped as I stopped beside a yellow Porsche. "Sweet!"

"It's mine, I stole one in Italy and it was so nice I got Edward to buy me one when we got home." Alice said as she danced her way into the room before hugging me and going to stand by her husband.

"You stole one?"

"It's a long story." Alice laughed.

"A bit of grand theft auto never hurt anyone." Emmett laugh rumbled as he walked out to join us in the garage. "Hey Callie. How's Jacob?"

"Um... ok." Another wave of guilt pulsed through at the fact I'd left him.

"He'll be fine." Jasper wrapped his arms around me and began controlling my emotions to calm me down.

"Jasper!" I growled dangerously making Emmett laugh even harder.

"Come on, you have to see the rest of the house!" Alice grabbed me excitedly before leading me up the stairs into the main house.

"Mary mother of God!" I stared around at the spacious living room, I hadn't seen anything like this since our school had gone to a stately home last year.

"You like it?!" She giggled as she twirled round before heading back to my side.

"You live in a fucking mansion!" I yelled as just stood there gawping.

"Come and see the rest of the house." She giggled as she pulled me up the stairs; she had the air of a kid bringing her new friend home for the first time. The upstairs of the house was just as impressive as the downstairs. Alice and Jasper's room was beautiful with a walk in wardrobe as big as Billy's entire house!

"You have some beautiful clothes." I gasped as held up a red party dress.

"We should go shopping sometime." Alice grinned from her seat on the floor by a pile of shoes.

"About that, my friends are going to Port Angeles this afternoon and they asked if you and the other girls wanted to come." I looked hopefully at Alice; I was really beginning to like the small pixie with the hundreds of shoes.

"Sounds great! Although I doubt Rose will come, Esme might." She didn't mention Bella and neither did I.

"Callie, they said you were here." I turned to see Bella resting against the doorway.

Oh great.
