Jacob POV
It was nearing sunrise, I was running a patrol all the way to Canada. It has been a long time since we have had any problems with any vampires. Because we have had a problem free life for so long now, I only ordered these long patrols once a month I would be doing the longest runs, about 16 hours. It is hard being away from Renesmee, especially since I got a call around 8:30 last night from Edward letting me know the baby had grown almost a week in just 8 short hours. It was all I could do to stay focused and continue my patrol. This was the only time I can really say I didn't want to be a wolf anymore. I knew in order to be with Renesmee, I had to be a wolf, and I couldn't age. When I looked at it that way this was such a small sacrifice, and I knew that Nes would agree.
Nothing to report on my end Jake. Seth thought.
All right head on home, I am going to be heading back too. When you get home have Collin phase, he is next. I told him
I decided to go another 50 miles into Canada before turning around. I was halfway to my 50 mile mark when Collin Phased in
Hey Jake, what route should I take?
I'm going north; Seth went west I want you to go east. Circle back after about 100 miles until you meet Seth's trail, as long as everything is clean you can go home for the day. I am going to circle back until I meet the start of your trail.
Sounds good.
We ran in silence, I hit my marker and turned to start heading back. I only had about 6 hours to make it back if I was going to keep my promise to Nes about being home by noon. I was really going to have to push myself to do it.
Renesmee POV
I woke up late; I rolled over and looked at the clock 11:45, no way. I have never, a day in my life slept past 9 am. Jake would be home in just 15 short minutes, I rolled out of bed I couldn't wait to see him. I missed him so much, I hated sleeping without him. I took off the clothes I had been sleeping in I pulled on a shirt from the closet and started looking for a pair of jeans I slid them on and pulled them up when I went to button them I realized they didn't fit. Hm I can't actually see Alice, or anyone else living in this house making a mistake but these couldn't be mine. I took them back off and looked at the size. They were mine, when I realized what that must mean I ran across the hall into the bathroom,in nothing but my shirt and underwear. I stood in front of the full length mirror and lifted my shirt out of the way.
My eyes almost bugged out of my head, no way.
"CARLISE! Come here hurry!" in less than a second Carlisle was at my side, my mother and father standing in the doorway watching anxiously.
"What is this?" I asked frantically pointing to the bulge sticking out on my stomach.
I was surprised when I saw a smile spread across his face. "What, why are you smiling, what is so funny?" I was panicking. I sounded hysterical. I heard loud footsteps running up the stairs, all three flights, my mom and dad rushed in to make way for Jacob who ran through the door way out of breath and looking scared.
He ran to my side and hugged me "Nes are you ok? What's going one? Why are you in your underwear?" he looked at Carlisle, and then to my father.
"Look for yourself, Jacob." my dad said pointing to my stomach. Jacobs's brow furrowed in confusion, he turned and looked down, he lifted my shirt, and when he realized what he was seeing his eyes got wide. I was shocked even more this time when Jacob started smiling too. He got down on his knees and hugged me around the middle, kissing the little bump. He looked up to me and said
"Renesmee, do you know what this means?" he said excitedly
"That I really am pregnant." I said at a failed attempt at humor.
"This means your skin can stretch, your body will be able to carry a baby. Can you believe it." he rested his ear to my belly to listen, I don't know if he could hear anything or not.
"Carlisle?" I asked.
"Let's go do another ultrasound and see what's going on." He said. Jacob stood up and we walked hand and hand to Carlisle's office.
When the sound of the heart beat filled the room I looked over. I couldn't believe it, the baby was even bigger than the last time. Would this rapid growth ever end? I was beginning to worry. I knew it was time to voice my concerns again
"Carlisle what if the baby doesn't stop growing, what if after the baby is born it just continues to grow, until it dies."
I could tell that Carlisle was uncomfortable "we won't know anything until we can determine the growth of the child. All we can hope is that the growth will slow and then eventually stop all together, like yours and Jacobs. I'm sorry Renesmee. I do know if the baby continues to grow at this rate however, you will be giving birth in just a few short months."
Jake and I both stared at him. We didn't know what else to do.
Jacobs POV
It was hours later, we sat on the floor of our house, in front of a blazing fire. Talking about the baby.
"do you want a boy or a girl?" I asked Renesmee
"I don't know honestly. Any baby that was our baby would be the perfect baby in my eyes. What do you want?"
"It would be nice to have a boy, someone to teach manly things to. Maybe one day he would become a wolf. He wouldn't age after that."
"Well, with the way things are going, we will find out in no time if they baby is a boy or girl. But you are right; a little boy does sound nice. "She said.
Renesmee POV
I looked over at Jacob who was staring into the fire deep in thought. I don't know if it was the pregnancy hormones, or just that burning need I would always have for him, but I couldn't help myself. I got up and stood over him, lowering myself down on to his lap, we started kissing, he got the hint pretty quickly, he stood up easily, still holding me and kissing me, he walked back to the bedroom.
I didn't know what the future held for us. I didn't know how soon our baby would be born into this world. If our baby didn't have a never ending life, I didn't know how Jacob and I would handle it. I knew I would do whatever it took to make any amount of time our baby had on this earth special. No one would be more loved than this child. I was determined to no longer be scared. I was going to let the chips fall where they may. My life was going to be happy; my pregnancy was a reason for joy. There would be no more sadness or fear from now on.
Ok, so the idea I told you about in my last update didn't fit, so I think it will be in my next update.
Do you guys want a boy or a girl? I have been looking for names, but it's hard, I have a few. And after I pick out the one I want I may share them.
I do have to say, I want there to be more than just the one baby. So depending on how the story works its self out there may be more. Not as in twins, but farther down the line.
I hope I am still making all my readers happy, I feel good about the way the story is going. Well I am going to start the next chapter in just a bit, so until then my lovely readers!
And as always thank you for your continued support, it means the world to me.
oh and one more thing, i don't know if any of you read my updated profile, but if you are interested in seeing Renesmee's wedding dress, or Jake's tux, or the house i picked as their house let me know.
