Again I'm sorry for the late update. I had to go back into hospital for some tests. Then on Sunday I found out I'm allergic to mosquito bites, my right arm has swollen to twice the normal size and its itchy and very painful, just bare with me. Thank you for your patience I can never express how much your kind words mean to me. Chapters should be back on track this week. I hope so anyway, unless something else happens to make my month even worse.
Also I'm aware I mentioned a while back that Emily was pregnant and I left it for a long time not even mentioning when their baby was born, I realise I should have but I can't go back and change that now, I decided to introduce their child into this chapter as I do have plans that involve her very soon. I named her Kayleigh and she's roughly 2 years old… I think I will go back and check that but I wanted to get this out to you all asap. Also be aware Paul and Rachel are now married, I know I'm a sucky author for not including all this but my mind focuses so much on the Cullen's I sort of forgot about the wolves.
Chapter 34: Telling everyone
RENESMEE'S POV
Jacob and I arrived at his father's house within minutes, I was suddenly nervous. We walked up to the door and he just walked in.
"Dad?" he called out.
"Jakey!" I heard a shrill voice from inside the house.
"Hey Rachel. Why are you here?" he asked.
"I came to see dad, I'm the good kid now, he sees me more than he sees you" she told him as she appeared in the hall. It had been way too long since I saw her. She smiled at me and came over to hug us both. "Did you decide finally to come out of leech town and rejoin the home team?" she asked. Jacob was the first to pick up on her nickname for my family.
"You spend way too much time with Paul. You shouldn't call them that." He said as he led me into the living room. Paul was lounged across the couch.
"Hey man!" Paul called out to Jacob. "Hey Nessie" he greeted me with a smile. I smiled at him timidly; he wasn't my favourite of the wolves, even if he was my brother in law.
"Dad!" Rachel called out, "Jacob and Nessie are here"
Within seconds Billy wheeling into the room.
"Hello son! I didn't realise you got back from your honeymoon" he said as he reached us. I leant over to hug him.
"Yeah we got back a while ago actually; it had to be cut short. We're sorry we haven't come to see you, we've had a lot on" Jacob answered as he greeted his father.
"That's ok. I understand newlyweds are always busy" he said with a chuckle. I think I blushed slightly.
"Well I'm glad you came to see us little brother" Rachel said, still smiling widely at Jacob.
"Yeah I missed you guys" he said as he sat down, he pulled me onto his lap and purposely rested his hands over my stomach.
"We should get the pack together, welcome you back to the land of wolves" Paul grinned.
"I haven't been gone that long dude" Jacob answered.
"You haven't phased in weeks. Your pack were starting to get worried, there is only so much of Leah they can take, why did you leave her in charge man? Even Seth would have been better" he said to him. Since Jacob and I became serious Jacob had cut back on his alpha duties, leaving Leah, his beta in pretty much full control of his pack. He gave them all an option to join Sam's pack since he had more important things to do. Jacob chuckled.
"They have the option to leave at any time" Jacob reminded him.
"I know but I'm pretty sure they would like to have their alpha back"
"I know... but it's going to be even harder than ever now to get back into that" Jacob said, I could see him starting to drop hints.
"Ok I get that you're newly married and everything but you don't need to have sex every second of the day" Paul boomed with a laugh. He reminded me so much of my uncle Emmett. Rachel reached out and hit Paul upside the head.
"That's not what I mean" Jacob defended us.
"What do you mean Jacob?" Billy asked.
"Well we have something to tell you, this is the whole reason we're here" Jacob began. I made sure I wasn't looking at anyone before he said it. "Renesmee is pregnant"
Everyone's face was a picture, especially Billy's.
"But you're like 8!" Paul was the first to speak.
"Not physically" I told him, my voice weak and quiet.
"Congratulations!" Rachel told us with a huge smile. She came over and hugged us both.
"Thank you" I said to her with a smile, at least one person was taking it well. My eyes moved to Billy.
"Well I guess a congratulations is in order." He said, his shocked face melting into a smile. I smiled widely at my father in law. "You two will be amazing parents" he said his smile widening. I moved from Jacob's lap to hug him.
"Let's go tell the others! I'm sure Sam and Emily will be happy. Maybe their annoying kid will get someone to play with" Paul chuckled.
"Aw Kayleigh is not annoying, she's adorable. She's just like any 2 year old would be" Rachel defended the child.
"Can't wait to see what you're like with your own kids" I laughed at him.
"Yeah well, I'm not a huge fan of the things" Paul said. I saw Rachel look over at him with her eyebrows raised.
"Hey… I'm having at least 1" she told him.
"Let's hope it's a boy. That way I won't be pulled into playing pretty pretty princess with it" he said his face twisting in disgust. Jacob and I laughed.
"Well you never know. If he's gay he might just want you to play pretty princess with him" Jacob laughed. Paul looked horrified at the idea.
"My son will not be gay" he said proudly.
"Just wait and see" Jacob grinned with another snigger.
"Even if he is, we will love him all the same" Rachel insisted as she glared at Paul.
"Yeah yeah of course I will. I just really hope he's not" Paul admitted with a smile at his wife.
"Well I think it's a great idea, why don't we head round there now? We can let everyone know, I'm sure they'll all be excited" Billy smiled. I smiled back; I was so happy that he wasn't mad about this.
"Thank you for being so understanding Billy" I said to him.
"You're welcome Nessie, just wait until you see Charlie's reaction" he said with a small laugh as he wheeled out the room.
"Oh crap" I murmured. I hadn't thought about my grandfather.
"You have to ring Renee too" Jacob whispered into my ear. I groaned and dug my face into the crook of his neck. He laughed as he stood up, me still cradled in his arms.
"Let's go" he called, he let me down onto my feet and we all walked out the house. Billy followed us not long after and we all began walking towards the Uley residence.
"Knock knock" Paul boomed as he opened the door.
"Uncle Paul!" I heard a small voice call out. A 2 year old little girl covered in white flour came running full speed into us. Instead of going to Paul she collided with Jacob. "Uncle Jakey!" she said. The last time we saw her was at our wedding and in the few short months she had grown like a weed.
"Hey kid" Jacob greeted her and lifted her into his arms.
"Pretty pretty princess pretty pretty princess" she called as she jumped up and down impatiently in his arms.
"What's pretty princess?" I asked Paul.
"A game she got last week that she insists everyone plays with her." Paul answered.
"It's a board game. You make your way around the board putting on pieces of fake jewellery. The person that finishes with the crown is the winner." Rachel informed me just as Emily showed herself.
"Oh hey guys!" she called out, she had an apron on with flour covered all over her. I guessed Kayleigh had been helping her bake. "Come in." she said as she tried her best to wipe the flour from herself.
"Pretty pretty princess pretty pretty princess" Kayleigh was still calling to Jacob.
"Kayleigh Jacob doesn't want to play with you right now. He's only just got here" Emily told her daughter. Kayleigh pouted and her little face would get to anyone's heart. Clearly Jacob was affected by it.
"No its ok. I'll play with you" he said to her, her face lit up into a smile and she squirmed out of his arms. He placed her on the floor and she took his hand. He looked back at me quickly before he was dragged off into the house by the impatient 2 year old. Emily laughed and came over to hug me.
"It's so nice to see you. You look so happy" she said with a smile. I smiled back.
"I am" I told her as we made our way into the kitchen.
"I apologize for the mess, Kayleigh and I have been making muffins" she said as she took her apron off and hung it on the door. "So what brings you here?" she asked.
"Well… where is Sam?" I asked.
"Oh he's in the study. I'll get him" she said as she walked out.
She came back with Sam behind her.
"Well erm… we actually came to tell you that…" I stuttered, I wasn't used to not having Jacob at my side. "I'm pregnant" I managed to get out. Emily's face lit up.
"Oh how exciting!" she called and came over to hug me. "Congratulations honey" she smiled.
"Thanks" I blushed.
"Congratz Ness" Sam said with a smile.
"Thank you" I smiled.
"Oh this is brilliant. We need to have a party to celebrate." Emily grinned.
"Sounds great" I grinned.
"We could organise it for tonight. Have you told anyone else?" she asked.
"No just these three and you. Outside of my family that is"
"Well that's good we can let everyone else know at the party." She said her voice excited.
I spent a lot of time with Emily and Rachel in the kitchen. The men went off to do their own thing. I assumed they had rescued Jacob from Kayleigh but when it came time to leave I found him in Kayleigh bedroom with her. He was lying on his front with his head resting on his hand. His other hand was holding onto another piece of jewellery ready to put it on. I held back a laugh as he put the bracelet on his wrist so I could enjoy the scene. Jacob was smiling as he watched Kayleigh giggle and talk.
If I ever had any doubts what so ever about Jacob being a good father they were now completely gone. Watching him interact with Kayleigh assured me completely that Jacob was going to be an amazing father to my child. I suddenly felt tears welling up in my eyes; i knew it was down to my raging hormones.
"I know you're there Nessie" Jacob said without turning round. "I could feel you a mile away" he said finally turning to look at me. I let out a giggle when I saw he had fake earrings on. I wiped away my tears.
"Are you enjoying yourself?" I asked him. I came over to sit cross legged next to him.
He sat up and ran his thumbs under my eyes.
"Why were you crying?" he asked concerned. I shook my head.
"Hormones" I assured him. He was still confused. "I was watching you with Kayleigh and I can't wait to see you like that with our baby" I told him with a small smile. He smiled widely.
"Nessie play!" Kayleigh called out, I turned to look at the tiny girl in front of me.
"I can't sweetheart I'm sorry. Jakey and i have to go now." I told her sadly, she pouted. "We'll see you later though on the beach. There is going to be a party" I told her with a smile. Her pout fell and she smiled back.
"Yay!" she called. "I'll go and get daddy to play with me" she said and began running as fast as her little legs could carry her out the room. I smiled after her longingly; I couldn't wait to see my child run like that to her daddy. Jacob caught me looking and pulled me into his chest. He placed a kiss on my head.
"Soon" he whispered. The truth of that word made me smile.
