The title is translated the song is in Spanish by Enrique Iglesias. Basically the way Lacey feels about Jacob and the situation.
Hope you like.
.:I Cry For You:.
"M……Marcus?" I said uneasily.
"Yeah its me."
"Why are you …… is there a reason you called, we haven't done anything wrong." I said
"That's not why I called, I need a favor."
How odd. Since when does the Volturi ask for favors? They never need anything "What is it that you need."
"I have a woman I need you to age." He said in a matter-o-factly tone.
"Why?"
"I just need you to do it. It's not for the Volturi in any way it's for me. I will be wiling to return that favor. …. Dan mentioned Jacob was in the hospital. Come to Volterra and we can have an agreement."
I tensed for some reason. That meant they were still keeping an eye on us. "I can't go to Italy."
"I can get the venom out of his bloodstream. After that its no strings attached, it will be as if it never happened. I'll come to Forks and help you."
"Why do you want me to do it so bad? Is she a human or … one of us." I said careful not to say the wrong thing. Anyone could walk in a hear this.
"Vampire. Can you just do it?" he pressed. I looked over to Jacob. I didn't doubt that Marcus could …. Cure him but what if he was lying and there were going to be strings attached. Regardless of what he did 3 years ago he is still the part of the Volturi.
I looked over to Jacob he was lying there motionless. "If you take the venom out I'll do whatever you want."
"Good, I'll be there in a couple days."
"It needs to be soon, he needs help." I said with an edge to my voice.
"I won't be long, what you're doing is important to me too." He hung up.
I sat next to him for a long time not really acknowledging where we were. I just watched him, it reminded me of when I would watch him sleep at night. He's going to live no matter what I have to do.
After a long time the door was quietly opened and Carlisle came in.
"Look I haven't had a chance to thank you for what you're doing. It means a lot to me."
"I know it does. Believe it or not it means something to me too, the way it means something to Edward. He appreciates what he's done in the past and truly wants him live." He replied. It made sense in reality Edward was never a hateful person.
"Oh, I've been meaning to ask you something. Why did they draw blood from him? We know what's wrong." That had been in the back of my mind, it bothered me.
"It was for another reason entirely. You see the same night he was brought here a little boy was brought here to. They found him near the reservation. He was in bad shape no one knows what happened. His mother was found as well but she died. And the boy who's about 6 months, had a high temperature but at the same time he was fully conscience, like nothing was wrong. He is Quileute and his mother was really young so his father must be too, around his 20's I believe. So I got a crazy theory that maybe he was part wolf and because of what happened that night somehow it triggered it."
I had yet to figure out what it had to do with Jacob, I was intrigued though. "But aren't they supposed to be like teens for it to happen?"
"Yes but I don't think it was fully triggered because he was healing at a faster rate than a normal person but yet not as fast as a wolf would. It's also triggered by anger. So that's why I took both of their blood and compared it."
"What did you find?" I said honestly interested.
"It's similar in many ways. They both have something that human blood doesn't contain."
I took it in and realized what he was implying. "Wait so you think that someone from the pack has a kid they don't know about."
"Most likely. Everything points in that direction. I know for a fact he's Quileute and he shows the symptoms if you may of a wolf. The problem is we have to figure it out soon. Because since they can't locate his father and the mother is dead he will be transferred to an orphanage. This isn't my business but I'm sure the pack wouldn't want one of their own somewhere out there and lost. What would happen if he would start to phase later on."
Everything kind of came at me full force. This was definitely one of the longest nights of my life. I had just ended the life of Ryan and friends. I had made a deal with Marcus, not really knowing if it was in any way safe. Now there'd this kid here who might be part wolf. Sure it wasn't my place but I felt sorry for the kid. It sucks not having a mom and a dad who doesn't know you exist. Besides ever since I got together with Jacob I grew to care about the pack.
"You're right." I looked over at the clock it was about 6am. Time went by fast. "Leah said Sam would probably come later today. I could talk to him, I mean I'm sure you have work to do here."
"That would be a good idea." He replied.
For some reason I was really getting interested in this kid. I didn't even know him. Carlisle began to check on Jacob. I wasn't quite sure what he was doing but I think he was checking the heart rate and the IV and stuff.
"Carlisle, can I see him, the little boy?" I sort of blurted out.
"Um….sure. He's in the pediatric floor. But if you don't mind me asking, why?"
I wish I knew the answer to that. "I don't know just curiosity……. is there any change with Jacob?"
"The same, but at least we know the venom is doing further damage. Come on I was going to check on him next." I kissed Jacob on the cheek and followed Carlisle.
We arrived at the pediatric floor and he went into a room at the end of the hall. I was surprised to see the lights on and chattering inside.
When we arrived to where the babies were a nurse was there. Carlisle told her she could leave and she did. He was so cute and definitely Quileute. He looked like the kind of kid I would love to have he looked so mellow.
He picked him up. I could see how much he really enjoyed his job. "Poor kid he's been really lonely I try to get a nurse in here as often as possible. But they have a job to do."
The baby grew unsettled. A beeping noise came from him. He took the beeper out. "They need me in surgery. Can you take him try to calm him he should go back to sleep soon."
"S..Sure, okay." He quickly handed me the baby. I rocked him in my arms. He did calm down and stopped crying. He looked up at me and I swear he smiled. Poor baby boy he has no parents, I touched hi forehead and he was a lot warmer than the average human but not as warm as Jacob.
I held him in my arms a while longer and he eventually dosed off. I smiled to myself and put him back in the bed. He stirred but didn't wake up.
I have to say I enjoyed myself in the short time. Despite where he was and witnessed what happened that night, joy radiated off of him. It was the contagious kind of joy.
I made my way back to the ICU where Jacob was. I saw a nurse almost run in. Okay, this was not good. Something was happening. I tried to run at a human speed to his room so not to attract attention.
I began to panic, but when I finally walked in the panic was overpowered my many other emotions that I couldn't handle.
I know I am a mean, mean person but come on ya'll know I love the twist in the story, honestly is it what you expected. If it is then tell me to be less onvious and i you were surprised then tell me too. I just what to know what you think, and again yay for me another chapter in the same day. Lucky for those who care for the story i've been so bored that i just keep writing LOL
