Chapter 25: Bells Of Joy, And Rib Cracking Kisses!
James POV
It was now mid March and Bella was 6 months pregnant. Her stomach was big and Bella was in a lot of pain. Carlisle was giving ultra sounds once a week keeping a close eye on our child's growth. Baby looked to be about 8 months pregnant so we may only have a couple more weeks before Carlisle does the C section. Bella has been trying not to show how much pain she is in, but with Jasper around he can feel it, and I was thankful for that.
Bella was laying in a tiny pair of shorts and a bikini top. She was cuddled up to me my skin keeping her cool. We were talking about having a small wedding right on the island before we have baby, but since the due date has been moved up, Alice decided to move the wedding for the following day, Bella and I were fine with that, I was just happy to call her my wife.
Alice had gone to the main Island that was a 45 minute boat ride away, and grabbed Bella something to wear, she knew what would fit her because, lets face it, she is never wrong. Esme had a Marriage License that she had gotten five years ago and she was very excited to use it. Rosalie was out decorating the beach, which is why we were inside, we weren't aloud to see it until the next day.
Jasper and Emmet went with Alice to look at a tux or suit for me, I refused to leave Bella, I would be fine wearing my Jeans at the alter, Alice didn't seem thrilled about that not even a little bit.
I looked down at Bella and she was sleeping peacefully, I could see the sun setting for the day, and I was getting excited for what the next day would bring.
"Get out of here now James, I have to get Bella ready, and it is very bad luck to see the brides dress before its time." Alice was scolding me. I leaned down and kissed my blushing bride to be one more time and left quickly, giving Alice a quick apology on the way out.
I walked outside and took my place at the alter, it really did look great. There was a beautiful gazebo that they had set up and a white runner that Bella would walk down. The gazebo had beautiful lilies wrapped around the posts. It was perfect and it was great so the sun wouldn't beat down on Bella and make her uncomfortable.
Speaking of uncomfortable my suit was a little stiff, but Bella liked it, so I would suck it up. Emmet and Jasper were sitting in the row of seats just outside the gazebo, and Rosalie was fixing the runner.
After what felt like hours but was more like twenty minutes I could hear Bella and Alice walking toward the Entrance to get outside, I could hear Bella's heartbeat pick up the closer she got and her breathing uneven. Alice whispered something I couldn't quite hear and Bella chuckled. Alice quickly stepped out and walked vampire speed toward her seat, right beside Rosalie. When Bella stepped out into my line of sight, I damn near dropped to my knees. She was wearing a short wedding dress it came to mid thigh, it had small straps and there was delicate bead work all over it. The back of the dress was a long trail that drug a foot behind her. She was wearing a tiara that was very small and subtle with a veil over her hair but not flipped over her face. Her beautiful belly was protruding and it looked that the material around it was more stretchy.
Carlisle was standing beside her Bella had her delicate hand in the crook of his arm. Since Bella's Dad could not be part of this, Bella asked Carlisle if he would give her away, since he really is like a second father to her. Carlisle happily accepted. They walked down the white material at what seemed like slow motion. Finally they were in front of me and Carlisle gave her to me. I held on to her tightly, while we walked up the small step onto the gazebo.
Esme read through her book and we repeated our vows, and exchanged rings. Esme pronounced us husband and wife and Bella and I both smiled widely, "You may now kiss your bride, James." Said Esme with a smile that would be watery if it could. I smiled brightly and leaned forward, Just as our lips touched I heard a sickening 'crack' Bella gasped and then cried out in pain, before crumpling against me. I quickly lifted her up and looked towards Carlisle, he looked about as panicked as I felt, and we both took off towards the house.
We had Bella in Carlisle's Office/examination room. He felt around her stomach and then her ribs. Bella cried out again and Carlisle moved his hand away, I instinctively growled at Carlisle and then felt bad immediately. "Sorry" I murmured.
"It's fine James. It seems that your child has broken one of Bella's ribs." My eyes went wide, this was not good. "I think we have to take baby out…. Soon James. It is far enough along that it should be fine, and obviously it has a lot of strength so I think things will be fine."
I nodded agreeing whole heartedly, our baby was strong and if we didn't do this soon than it will be worse. "What, I don't know Carlisle, what if baby isn't developed enough, I don't want to risk that, I want our child to be healthy." Said Bella her voice shaking.
"Its fine Bella I will do another ultra sound to be sure, but I am pretty positive that your baby will be fine." She nodded and bit her bottom lip, to stop it from quivering.
"Well this isn't quite how I pictured our wedding night." Bella chuckled. I just shrugged.
"As long as I can call you my wife, everything else is just fine." My beautiful Wife beamed up at me and pulled me to her, kissing me softly.
I ran up to our room and quickly grabbed clothes for Bella, a pair of her shorts and a very light top. I brought it back downstairs and Carlisle excused himself while I helped her change. Once out of her dress, I groaned loudly, I should have know there would be something spectacular underneath. A red lace bra that was see through, and a pair of matching panties, they were so sheer I could see her smooth pussy beneath them, I ran my hand over her clit not even realizing what I was doing until I could hear Bella moan and the fresh smell of her arousal. "Damn Bella, you really are so beautiful." I pressed my lips against hers and kissed her softly, knowing that as much as I may want to devour my wife, I would only be hurting her. I quickly put her shorts on, without breaking from the kiss, so I would be less tempted. Then I moved my lips from hers and helped her with her shirt.
"Ok you two settle down in there." Called Carlisle through the door, I laughed loudly and Bella blushed.
"Well what do you expect we are newlyweds." I said and I could hear the whole family laughing in the other room.
I kissed Bella chastely one more time and then I opened the door. Carlisle quickly went to work, setting up the ultrasound machine. Bella laid back down on the bed and waited to feel the cold gel being squirted onto her stomach. When our baby came into view, I could not believe the difference in five days.
Carlisle hummed and hawed a bit before turning to us. "Just as I suspected, your child is pretty much fully developed. There is no more room in your stomach to grow Bella, it isn't safe for either of you to wait any longer." Bella's heart started to beat faster and her breathing increased. The nervousness and realness of the situation, hitting us at full force. "I will need two hours to set up the operating room, and to sanitize everything. It is the room right beside this one, I was planning to show it to you closer to your due date to familiarize with it, but that is no longer an option." Bella nodded again, not saying much of anything. I felt sick and worried.
When Carlisle excused himself to get ready I excused myself too, leaving Bella with Alice. I ran after Carlisle to talk to him. "Is this safe? I mean to not do this in a hospital?" I asked feeling on the edge of hysteria.
Carlisle turned to me and gave me a small smile. "I have done this procedure well over six hundred times in my years and this room has everything in it that a hospital would, so don't worry we should be fine, and we cant really do this in a hospital anyway, your baby is part vampire James, no one can see it being born."
I nodded knowing he was right. I left the room so Carlisle could get it ready, and I went back to sit with Bella hoping and praying that everything will be fine.
