Disclaimer: Me don't own Twilight! Hehe…

Hi people! So here is an update. Do you all realize that I will hopefully have 400 reviews once this is posted? Holy crackers! Haha… Sorry, I get excited sometimes!

Naruto day and night, my mommy always told me that speed reading is bad for your health…Too bad! I read it fast too, except I had to wait on a certain slow individual, (cough girlfriend cough ashel) so it took me longer then normal.

So, baby names. I honestly haven't thought about them yet, so if you have suggestions, let's hear them. I'm not saying I will use them…but you get my drift ;-)

HERE WE GO!

Soundtrack Of My Summer

HPOV

Kate sat down next to me, and I pulled my hands away from my head. Raising an eyebrow at the other vampire, I waited for her to speak, not trusting my voice, "Hayden, you know I wouldn't do anything to Shayla just to get to you."

My tone was terse when I responded, "No one is blaming you, Kate, and I think the burden of the babies is allowing her to stress. I just don't understand, I've never heard of a vampire fainting before."

Rubbing her hands together, Kate looked thoughtful, "Well, it's possible that her body is just reacting to the change. She became a vampire, and pregnant in the same week. That's never happened before, so it's quite possible that vampires can faint when something becomes too much to handle."

"Do you think it could kill her?" Whenever I asked as question, I could always count on Kate to give me an honest response.

Threading her fingers through my now short hair, she smiled weakly, "Anything's possible, Hayden."

Yanking my head out of her grasp, I moved away. I didn't want anyone touching me right now; I needed to get away without breaking the radius of my healing powers for the babies.

Someone tapped my shoulder as I was heading for the door, and I turned to glare at whoever it was, "Whoa, little brother. What's got your panties in a bunch, hmm?"

I was not in the mood to deal with Emmett's jokes right now, "Just shut the hell up, Emmett."

His large hand shoved against my chest, and I glared at him. Soon both hands were pushing on my chest as we stumbled out the front door and into the icy terrain.

Emmett's face was full of a playful desire to wrestle, and at the moment I knew nothing would ease my tension more then a battle with my older brother. Lunging forward, I dove connecting with his legs, knocking him off of his feet.

Loud chuckles made the ground rattle as Emmett grinned up at me, before I was sent flying. Groaning, I pushed myself from my sprawled out position, and begun advancing towards Emmett.

When we heard loud growls, both of us stopped to see his wife, and my fiancé, who had a protective hand over her stomach, and anger on her face.

"Emmett Cullen! If you hurt my future husband, I will hurt you once these babies are born. Do you understand?"

Rosalie was next to Shayla, shaking her head in our direction. As I walked towards Shayla, I brushed my clothes off, knocking loose ice particles to the ground. Rolling her eyes at me, my fiancée spoke, "You. Shower. Now."

Wincing at her tone of voice, I bent down to kiss her cheek, moving my kisses down her jawline, "Join me?"

Her raised eyebrow was my only answer, "Okay, sorry I asked. Yesh."

As I started my journey at human speed up the long staircase I heard Shayla talking to Emmett and Rosalie, "Thank you for taking his mind off of me, Emmett. He really needed that, but had you hurt him, I would've made you cry."

Halfway to the bathroom, I saw my father emerge from the room, rubbing at his face. I knew he couldn't be tired, but surely the stress was getting to him too. Upon seeing me, he smiled, but the happiness didn't meet his eyes, "When you're done in there, come see me."

"Sure, Dad, is something wrong?"

He paused longer then normal, and I sighed knowing his response wasn't going to be what I wanted to hear, "Just shower, and come see me, Bub."

Carlisle didn't give me a chance to respond before he started in the direction of his office. Hands in his hair, and head bowed, he seemed defeated. I had never seen my father act this way.

As I stood under the spray of the shower, I pushed my wet lips against the warm tile. Was something going to happen to Shayla? She seemed fine downstairs, but what if she was putting on a brave face for me?

Dragging the soap down my torso, I tried to think. Alice had seen our third child before she had seen our first two. Maybe I had changed Shayla too soon, and it had changed our future. Would she tell me if that were true, or would she keep it to herself, uncertain of her normally flawless visions?

When I turned to grab my towel from the top of the shower curtain, I was met with a pair of eyes. Not bothering to cover myself, I smiled at Shayla, "Hey, baby."

The soft white towel was in her hands and she reached forward to dry off my face. Dragging the warm fluff across my face, she let her lips push against mine.

The passion in her kiss was harried, and it worried me. Were my suspicions correct? Had something happened during Shayla's transformation?

Shayla's thumb brushed against my cheek, as the towel dropped to the floor of the bathroom. Tugging at her clothes, she pushed me back into the shower, and up against the wall. Her clothes were gone so quickly that my brain didn't process, until she grabbed the curtain and pulled it to cover us. The frenzy in our actions did nothing to solve my worry. What was going on?

HPOV

Sitting in my father's office, I was alone. After our romp in the shower, Shayla left without a word, and I was scared. Nail chewing had been a way to resolve my anxiety when I was human, but now I was chewing on my thumb.

Carlisle stood silently in front of me, his forehead creased with concentration. Books were sprawled out all over his normal clean office, and his expression was addled. I was uncertain as to what he was about to tell me, but I was sure it was nothing I wanted to hear.

"Hayden, I know you're not stupid. You can sense that something is wrong. I'm sure Alice warned you, but the Volturi are coming. This is because they were informed of Rose's pregnancy. I had told them that I would tell them of our families' actions since they consider us one of the strongest covens in the world."

The tips of his fingers were underneath his chin, his palms touching, "When I told them of Shayla and Bella's change, obviously they were intrigued. They will be coming to see them, and they should be arriving soon."

When I opened my mouth to respond, my father held up his hand to stop me, "I think I know what you are about to say, so just wait and let me explain, please."

Desperation? I sat silently waiting for him to continue, "The reason Shayla and I are acting differently is because we are not sure what the Volturi will think of our growing family. It is quite possible that they will request the disposal of your two children. They only knew of the one child, and they accepted that because it was just one, and not unheard of, since you are a prime example. Three's a different story."

I wasn't going to let them hurt my children, and I noticed that the look on my father's face was one that allowed me to speak, "Then what can I do?"

Pursing his lips, my father spoke slowly, "There's nothing you can do, Hayden. Or you too, will die."

The chair skidded across the floor as I sprung from my seat, and the wood splintered across the door, "No! They are not hurting my innocent children, God damn it! There has to be something they want more then my kids, and you know what that is? That's me!"

My father was shaking his head furiously, "No, Hayden. I forbid it. You will not join the Volturi! Do you know what they could do with you, to you?"

Slamming my fist down on the desk, I growled out, "They can't fucking hurt me, I would just heal myself! Don't you get that?"

Carlisle was in my face, his hands on my shoulders, squeezing tightly, "You MUST be within a two mile radius of your wife until she is out of the first trimester, Hayden! Surely they won't let you stay until then! They will want you to go with them now, or they will request the immediate disposal of those two children!"

Staring at my father, I felt numb. Was there nothing I could do to protect my children? If nothing could hurt me, why wouldn't he let me do this? It didn't matter; he no longer had control of me if I told the Volturi what I wanted.

Once my children were born, and they saw no harm in them, I could leave and return to my family, and if not? Sometimes goodbye is the only way. Pulling away from my father, I kicked the remains of the chair, and yanked open his office door. I wasn't going to let them take my children.

SPOV

They were going to die, and I could do nothing to protect them. I knew Carlisle was telling Hayden now, and I should be up there, but I couldn't bear to hear it again. Bella was lying on our bed, and Edward was sitting next to Bella.

Her fingers were running through his tousled hair, and I longed for my boy to be here, so I could comfort him. We heard Carlisle's office door being yanked open and Edward shot up, knocking Bella's hand backwards.

His voice was worried when he called out to his younger brother, but Hayden had a head start and was already gone. Edward's yelling alerted everyone in the house, and I grasped my stomach. Carlisle hurried out of his office, and I saw the remains of a broken chair on the floor, "Where is Hayden going, Edward?"

Alice spoke, her voice cryptic, "He's going to the Volturi, he wants to meet them half way. He's going to make them an offer they can't refuse. His other future, the one with death and destruction."

My hands flew up to my mouth. Hayden was going to get himself killed, and we were all standing here, waiting for Alice to deliver the news.

Esme spoke, and I could tell that she too was upset, "What will their answer be, Alice? Who's here with Aro?"

Alice sighed, "I'm not sure, because they haven't seen Hayden yet to have the idea proposed, and Aro, Marcus, Caius, Jane, and Alec are here."

Edward and Bella growled when they heard Jane's name, but I had no background as to who she was. Leaning against our bed, I closed my eyes, wishing that Hayden could hear me, hoping that he would come home in one piece.

Sensing my distress, Bella wrapped her arm around me, pulling me closer to her, "He'll be fine, Shayla."

Shaking my head, I cried, wishing I could have tears rolling down my cheeks, "Whether he's fine or not doesn't change our children's future, Bella. If we have these twins, they are going to be sought after just as Edward, Alice, and Hayden are. I need to protect them, they can't die, or Hayden will follow through with that future."

Silence filled our bedroom, as I snuggled into Hayden's side of the bed, holding his pillow close to me. I needed him here, now.

Emmett broke the silence when he looked directly at Edward and said, "Hayden would back us up, and you know that as well as I do. So what are we doing here? He needs us."

Edward nodded and glanced at Jasper, "You in?"

Jasper smiled, "Of course, Hayden's my little brother too."

Alice grasped Jasper's hand signifying that she would stand by him, and protect her brother. When Rosalie went to grasp Emmett's hand, he shook his head, "No, Rosie, please stay here. Protect our daughter."

Rosalie narrowed her eyes, but I could tell her will to fight was weakened, "He's my brother too, Em."

Bella was standing beside Edward, and I could tell that a silent discussion was taking place. Edward leaned down and kissed Bella's lips, their kiss lingering. Turning my head away, I sighed not wanting to invade their personal moment, but wanting my fiancé home.

Carlisle spoke, "We Cullens stick together, so your mother and I are coming too." He turned to look at Kate, Irina, and Tanya, his eye's showing truth, "Don't think you must come, you will be safe here."

When he looked around the room again, he looked directly at Bella, and I knew what he was going to ask, "Bella, would you please stay here with Shayla?"

Edward let a small smile peak at his lips, and I knew that some kind of a conversation had gone on when neither Bella nor I were paying attention, "Yes, I'll stay with her; I have someone I want to call anyway."

Her husband peered at her with confusion, but Bella just smiled, "You'll find out soon enough, Edward, darling."

Tanya and Kate seemed to also be having a silent discussion, "We will go too. Those two children deserve to live, and even if Hayden was supposed to be mine, I don't wish ill will on you, Shayla."

The sarcasm in Kate's voice was evident, and I knew she was trying to lighten my mood. Her wink made me laugh, and I knew she was joking about Hayden being hers. I was grateful that these little distractions were keeping me from having a breakdown.

I just prayed that Hayden would remember the two mile radius, or his battle would be for nothing.

HPOV

I felt a tugging as I neared the edge of the radius around our house. I knew that I would have to stand and wait for the Volturi, but I was not willing to let them anywhere near my wife. Standing by myself, I waited, unsure of the consequences for my actions.

If something happened to me, Shayla would be protected, and for that I was grateful. My head start had hopefully provided me with enough distance from the others, however if the Volturi did not arrive soon, my unhesitant actions would prove to be null.

Would they drag me back home, or would they fight with me, trying to prove to the Volturi that my children would cause no harm.

Sticks were cracking from behind me, and my question was answered. My family was coming, but who was with Shayla?"

Turning to face them, I felt Edward tackle me to the ground, baring his teeth. Gazing into his topaz eyes, I saw the obvious anger and frustration that he was feeling, "If you ever do that again, Hayden Cullen, I swear I will lock you in a white room with padded walls, where you CAN'T kill yourself. Am I understood?"

Gazing around at the others, I noticed who was missing, and I wished one more person would have stayed home. Tipping my head at Rose, after Edward let me stand, I sighed, "Rose, you don't have to be here. You need to protect your baby."

She smiled at me, "The safest place for little Allie is here with her godfather. Now shut up, we have a battle to fight."

Looming figures approached our formation, and a worried feeling settled in the pit of my stomach. I hoped that Bella and Irina would protect Shayla as well as I could. I knew that Bella would do her best; I just hoped her best was enough.

Okay, so here's the deal. Whoever gives me the 400th review gets a token of my appreciation. Now I'm not sure what I will give them, but I suppose that demands can be made? I dunno…

SO! For those of you asking, no Ashel and I aren't married. However, she IS my girlfriend, and we are celebrating our 3 month on the 21st… I know crazy, right? Anyway that should answer your questions.

So, REVIEW…Pwease?

See you soon,

Hayden
