"Bella, he's not dead." Explained Carlisle.

"Damn it Carlisle don't scare me like that." I exclaimed my dad and Billy looking up at me.

"But, there's no easy way to say this." He stammered over the phone.

"Say what? What's happened?" I asked frantically.

"He's gone." Carlisle uttered.

"What?" I questioned standing up from the chair I was sitting in. "How can he just walk off? Can he even walk?"

"Yes, he can walk. We're reviewing all the cameras right now, but we haven't found anything. No body leaving with him or anything." He continued as I put my hand on my forehead. I was feeling dizzy as I sat back down.

"Well, should I come down there?" I asked as my world continued to spin around me. I think I'm going to be sick.

"No, there's no need for that. You need to rest. You have a lot on your plate anyway." Comforted Carlisle as I stood back up and started to walk to the refrigerator I started to see black spots and then I felt my hand on the phone loosen and hit the floor only seconds before I did. Then, everything went black.

The next thing I remember I was waking up in a hospital. Carlisle and Charlie were standing over me.

"Bella, sweetie?" Asked my dad rubbing my shoulder. "Do you know where you are?"

"In a hospital?" I asked closing my eyes again.

"Yes, that's right. You passed out in your kitchen. Your dad and father-in-law brought you to the hospital in Forks." Explained Carlisle looking over me with a clipboard in hand. "Your blood pressure is a little high. We would like to keep you here over night."

"What time is it?" I asked looking around for a clock.

"It's almost 9:30p.m sweetie." Answered Charlie looking down at me with a worried expression.

"Where's Stella?" I asked looking around for her.

"She's at Billy's. They went home about half an hour ago." Replied my dad still looking worried.

"What's wrong with me? All I remember is feeling sick and… Is the baby okay?" I asked frantically touching my stomach.

"Don't worry the baby is fine." Smiled Carlisle. "Tomorrow I'll do your regular check up instead of later in the week. Okay?"

"Yeah, that sounds fine." I replied. "Have you found Jake?"

"Not yet." Replied Carlisle writing something down on his clipboard.

"Would you excuse me please? I need to call Renee." Stated my dad.

"You told her!" I exclaimed. "Jezz. Do you want her passing out too?"

"She would have found at anyway. Might as well have been from me rather then Billy." Snapped my dad.

"No stress." Calmed Carlisle putting his hands up to get us to stop bickering.

"Sorry." Apologized my dad leaving the room.

"Bella, we think that maybe a vampire might have taken Jake." Stated Carlisle putting his clipboard down on the table next to my bed and sitting in the chair next to the bed.

"Why would a vampire take Jacob?" I asked looking across to him.

"Maybe to try to get to you. We think it might be someone from the Volturi trying to seek revenge." Explained the doctor looking worried, which was an expression I had only seen a couple time since meeting him.

"Why would they want revenge on me?" I asked confused.

"They would want revenge, because you know what we are. I was surprised that it took them this long to react giving the fact and you and Jake got married over five years ago." Replied Carlisle looking around the room.

"But why take Jake and not me? I'm the one that was supposed to be a vampire by now anyway." I snapped looking out the small window in my room.

"I guess trying to show you a lesson or maybe trap you by coming after Jake first, because they know you would be weak without him and you fainting tonight is proof of that." Replied Carlisle answering my question.

"So, you think that they are coming after me? What about Stella?" I asked rubbing my stomach. "What about the baby?

"I don't think they would want anything to do with Stella or the baby, but they are the Volturi after all." Carlisle remarked putting his hand on top of the one that was on my stomach. "It's such a miracle. Childbirth. Bringing a new life into this world. What an honor that must be."

"Yeah, I guess, but when you're giving birth the only thing you really think about is the pain." I chuckled looking at his hand.

"Have you thought about any names?" Asked Carlisle looking back up at me.

"Not really." I answered as he took his hand off my stomach and stood up.

"Take it easy. No stress." Smiled Carlisle walking towards the door.

"Got it. No stress." I smiled back.

"I think Billy said something about being by in the morning with Stella. We can do the ultrasound then." Remarked Carlisle opening the door.

"Sounds good to me." I replied feeling sleepy again.

"See you in the morning, Mrs. Black." Smiled Carlisle leaving as I fell asleep again. Sometime during the night, I woke up from a horrible nightmare. I was walking in the woods with Jacob and this huge vampire comes out of nowhere and just grabs him and runs off.


Sorry it's so short, but I wanted to save the ultrasound for the next chapter. I'll update soon. Please review & check out my other stories.
