Chapter 15
There's No Way
1 Month Later….
"You know when you think about it, it wasn't that bad of a movie I mean really."
I heard Jake chuckle. "No Ellie, it was just a REALLY bad movie."
I smiled and shrugged. I watched the scenery as the trees blurred through window frame.
These were the good moments. The normal moments, when everything felt in place. It had been a hard couple of weeks when Muscles came back, during Bella's wedding. But we worked through it, and for the most part we were better than ever. The summer was great, and nothing bad had happened- werewolf or otherwise- but I couldn't help but feel that this was the calm before the storm.
God Ellie why do you always have to be so negative?
"Hey you ok?"
I turned to Jake "Yeah just thinking"
"about what?"
"How hungry I am." And lucky for me my stomach growled right on cue, which made us both laugh.
We finally got to muscles house, and it was around 2 in the afternoon, so I had every right to be hungry.
We got out of the car and started walking towards his house. Jake was far enough from me that I ran up and jumped on his back piggy back style.
I felt him move silently forwards, but found his balance quickly and laughed. "Twinkle toes I could have dropped you"
"Yeah but you didn't." I kissed him on neck, and he chuckled. He lifted me up higher, and held my legs while he walked inside.
He started bouncing me up and down when we got inside and I couldn't help but laugh. "AH! Jake stop you going to drop me!"
He was about to say something back to me, when we heard someone clear there throat. Muscles set me down, and we looked around the room and saw that Billy and Bella's dad standing in the kitchen. Which could only mean-
"There extending Bella's trip, she sounded I don't know off."
Muscles didn't even need to finish his thought, he the keys out of his pocket and started walking back to my car.
"Jacob, let it go-"
I looked at Billy " Don't worry Billy I have this under control"
I ran out the door and got in the passenger seat. At least I hope I have this under control.
"What are you doing?"
"what do you mean what am I doing? I'm going to make sure you don't do anything stupid. So if we are going to do this then let's go."
He let out a deep sigh, and muttered something under his breath and started the car. We drove off to the Cullen house and you could feel the tension radiating off of him. It was unnerving.
He got out of the car, and slammed the door. God, he was going to hear about that later, this car was vintage. He nearly ran up the steps when Dr. Handsome answered the door.
"Hello Jacob, it's good to see you. "
"Is it true? Give it to me straight. She's here?"
"They came home to weeks ago. Jake-"
And with that he was already halfway up the stairs.
I was left standing in the doorway. "Umm Hi" I gave a slight smile , and he smiled back.
"I'm Carlisle"
"Nice to meet you, formally at least, I'm Ellie." I extended my hand, and he shook it. "Pleasure to meet you Ellie. We don't we join them upstairs before something unwanted happens."
We quickly walked up the stairs. I looked around the room full of models, and let me tell you for good looking people they looked pretty dang upset. I walked behind Jake who looked like he was about to punch the blond girl in front of Bella.
"Rose it's ok"
I looked at Jake and back to Bella, wow did she look sick.
"Rose do you want to help me up?"
When she got up I saw a bump stretching out her stomach. She looked ill, like sickely ill. I let out a gasp and put a hand over my mouth.
"YOU did this!" Jake stormed over to Edward, but Emmett, I think that was his name, got in the way.
"What is it?"
"I'm not too sure, ultrasounds and needles wont penetrate the embryonic sack."
"I can't see it either." What was this the girl who could er can see the future?
"And I can't see Bella's future anymore."
"We've been searching legends but there isn't much to go on. We do know that its strong, and fast growing."
"Why haven't you done anything? Take it out of her."
I let out a slow breath, and I closed my eyes. I hate seeing him act this way.
"This is none of your business dog!"
"Rose!"
Oh man, this wasn't going to end well was it?
"All this fighting isn't good for Bella-"
"The Fetus isn't good for Bella"
"Say the word Alice baby. Its just a little baby!"
"Possibly."
I put my hands up to my forehead and started rubbing my temples. Why did I come again? Oh right-
"Carlisle you've got to do something-"
"No. its not his decision, its not any of yours. "
"Bella how can you be so-"
"HEY!"
Everybody in the room turned and looked at me. well I guess either no one noticed I was there, or they just didn't care either way I have something to say, and I josh darn well am going to say it.
"Look, I don't know any of you really. And I Bella and I never really got off on the right start, but I agree with her. If she wants to have this baby, they she is going to have this baby. I mean what the hell is wrong with you guys? It's a living being, I mean how can you just kill something like that. Something so innocent. And as her family I'm surprised that NONE of you except Blondie over here. "
I could feel all eyes on me, I slowly walked over to Bella who was now sitting down on the couch.
"Listen, we haven't really gotten off on the right start, and well at your wedding we kind of took a turn for the bad. But given the circumstances, I'd like to say that I'll be there for you. I mean with you vampire baby and all. You could use a small dose of human life right? After all is said and done Bella, I do consider you a friend."
She just looked at me with her sad brown eyes. "Thank you." And she hugged me. I darn well never thought this day would happen but it did.
"Jacob can I talk to you outside?"
I looked at Jake, who was just in utter shock after everything that just happened. And after what I said he probably just snapped a little. I just looked at him and nodded. He looked at everyone in the room, and gave off a silent you hurt her and I'll kill you look. And he walked off.
I was left in a room full of vampires. Great. Good going Ellie.
"My name isn't Blondie. It's Rosalie"
I looked up "Well to be fair you are blond."
She just rolled her eyes and sat down.
"Did you really mean what you said?"
"Of course. I mean heck look at what you're going through right now. You could use some one to lighten the mood right? "
I smiled warmly at her, and I could tell she appreciated the gesture.
After a while we moved Bella into another room- because DANG did they have a lot of rooms in this house- and we set her down on the couch.
I heard footsteps and looked up, it was muscles.
I got up from the seat, and looked at him.
"I'll uh give you guys a minute then."
I started to walk off when he graved my arm. He pulled me into a hug, and whispered "I love you in my ear"
"Ditto" I smiled and walked outside. I made my way to my car, when I remembered Jake had the keys.
I sighed rolled my eyes, and sat down on the hood of my car.
I looked up at the sky and wondered the h-e-double hockey sticks this all happened.
When Jake came outside he looked really P.O.D.
"Hey what's wrong?"
I got up and made me way towards him.
"Don't Ellie. "
I felt my eyebrows furrow "Don't what? What do you mean don't? "
I walked closer to him.
"Ellie, stop! I might hurt you if you come any closer."
He took my keys from his pocket and tossed them to me; I caught them and looked back at him.
"Jake I don't understand I-"
"I just need to get away."
"Jake-"
He phased. My eyes widened, I don't think I will ever get used to that.
He started running towards the forest.
"JACOB!"
He turned around and looked at me. Then he just kept running.
I groaned "Damn it!"
I opened my car door slammed it, and put the key in the ignition. I leaned my head on the steering wheel. I took a deep breath, and let it out.
My life is never going to be normal is it?
