As, Eleazar and Kate worked with Bella, the others were working with Alice to get more help. I stood there looking at both groups. "Are you okay Jacob?" I heard Sam coming up behind me. I glanced over at him and then back to where Bella stood. "She hasn't really mourned our child, nor have I. We have both been so focused on everything else. I'm scared for her and me. I just don't understand anymore, why these things keep happening to us."

I looked back to Sam, hoping for guidance or just a pat on the back. He stood there staring off in the distance. I looked back to Bella and then Sam spoke, "Did you ever think that you weren't meant to be with Bella?" I snapped my head back towards Sam. He looked at me with concern in his eyes. Sam continued, "Jake, you haven't imprinted on her. The ancestors have told you to leave her and now all this is happening, maybe it's just not meant to be."

I shook my head, "No, not you too. You are my second. You are supposed to back me up on my decisions." I looked back to Bella, "I want to be with her. I will be with her, end of discussion." Sam stood there in silence with me. A few minutes had past, "I don't know why this is happening Jacob. I don't know why you haven't mourned your child but there is some good out of this." I glanced over at him with my eyebrow cocked. "There's a bound between the wolves and the vampires. That has never happened before, and I think our ancestors would be proud that we can fight with them. The Cullen's are showing us that there is good in their kind, and we show them that we are not out to kill them." He looked back at me with a huge grin on his face. I laughed and patted his back.

"So true Sam, so true." Right then Alice walked over to us. "Zafrina said that she has a friend in the Amazon's that could really help us out. She is on the way to get her. She stated that she would be returning later this week. Eleazar has already contacted some others to come. It looks as though we will get a good turn out. Jacob, can I talk to you for a second please?" Alice chirped as she started to walk away. Jasper came to her side but she motioned him off.

I looked at Sam and he shrugged his shoulders. I started to follow Alice into the woods by the house. She walked at a normal pace until we reach the creek when she came to a sudden stop. She spun around and caught me off guard. "Damn Alice you could have warned me."

She looked behind me and smiled, "We don't have long to talk. The others will start to look and Bella will be very upset here soon." I looked at her with horror in my eyes. "Oh Jacob, she won't be able to do what they are asking her. She will be upset, between that and the baby, of course." She sighed and looked behind me again, "I called you back here because the future has changed. Of course I can't see you but I can see Bella and….how do I say this…um the most recent vision I had is she becomes a vampire. I wanted you to be aware because I see all of her future now which means….um…you're not there."

I stood there with my mouth open and staring into those big golden eyes. "I…um…when you were involved I would only get glimpses of her life. Now, I can see everything. I wanted to let you know because I don't understand where you have gone. Bella never seems upset, so you have to be close. I just don't know where. I'm sorry I have to tell you this, I really am. I have grown to care for you as much as I do Bella. Please, take this as nothing more than a possibility." She lightly touched my arm and her hand was like ice. I flinched but held my arm still because I too have grown to care for the Cullen's as much as my family. Well all of them besides Edward.

I turned to watch her walk away from me and with a blink of my eye, she was gone. I slowly turned back around and walked over to the rock that was near the edge of the creek, sat down to look at the slow moving water. I was trying to piece everything that was going on. I remember Alice telling me about her visions with me involved. She could never see me, but knew I was there because of the broken glimpses. Now she was seeing Bella at full vision. I didn't ask her, who she was with. I didn't ask her who changed her into a vampire. I was more worried that I wasn't there.

With the future being so uncertain, I shouldn't be sitting here. I got up and started to run back towards the Cullen's home. When I came out of the trees, I looked right towards Bella who looked exhausted. I continued to run to her, I scooped her up and walked her towards the truck. "Sorry everyone, she needs sleep and rest. I'm taking her to my place, we will be back later." I saw Edward out of the corner of my eye and I could see he didn't like Bella leaving.

Bella's head rested on my shoulder and her arms came around my neck. She whispered, "Thank you Jacob." I looked down at her as I lightly placed her feet to the ground. I opened the truck door, "You're welcome." I leaned in and kissed her lightly on the lips. "Now, get in the truck. I'll drive."

She jumped up into the truck and I followed behind her. Everyone's eyes were on us as I backed up the truck and took off down the long drive. Bella scooted close to me, so that she could lay her head on my shoulder. I wrapped that arm around her shoulder to pull her closer to me. I felt my chest getting wet. I leaned down to kiss the top of her head as she cried.

We got to the house and my father was out on the front porch. As I got out of the truck and pulled Bella back into my arms to carry her, I saw the pack of wolves arriving. I didn't give them too much attention, just nodding my head as I walked into the house.

By the time I got Bella back into my room, she was crying to the point of shaking. She was having problems breathing in deep as the sobs continued. I pulled down the covers and placed her on the bed. I pulled away and she grabbed my hand, "Stay with me Jacob." Her eyes were pleading with me. I whispered, "Of course." I positioned myself behind her and pulled the covers over us. I held her as we both shed tears for our past, our fears, and our future.

After our sobs had slowed down, I whispered, "Bella, please stay with me." She turned her head just enough to see me. Her eyes were red from crying. Her hand came up and lightly touched my face. My eyes closed at the contact. She wiped a tear off my cheek and my eyes came open. Those brown orbs looking back at me and she whispered, "Jacob, I don't know about the future but right now, right in this moment, I'm yours."

She leaned forward and kissed my lips with chastity. I kissed her back with a little more force. She started to turn her body to face mine. She started to deepen the kiss and her tongue lightly traced my lips. I moaned and let my mouth open for her to continue.

We continued this until we made love. It wasn't animistic; it was pure love and need. We needed each other right there. Just to be with each other, no problems, no pain, no vampires, no Volturi. It was just us, just Bella and me.


***Wonder what will happen? I know but I'm not telling just yet.

Sorry this is a short Chapter. I'm working on the next two chapters. I'm hoping to have them both up this weekend...but of course no promises. Enjoy!!!***
