Three weeks had gone by by and bella was just sitting in her room staring out of the window, not that Scarlett could blame her. Scarlett wasn't doing much better between still throwing up and the constant pain in her chest . It was hard. Renee had phoned Scarlett when she heard from Charlie just how bad things were getting between Scarlett and bella. Instead of helping each other bella just took it out on Scarlett, which after numerous time of ignoring her read bella the note Carlisle left her stating the real reason they left was because of what happened at the party made them realise even they weren't safe around humans.
A week later bella finally gets out of her room to go and see a movie with Jake whose been hanging around a lot with bella lately. Scarlett still couldn't stand him . With the house to herself Scarlett ran a warm bath hoping that would soothe the sickness feeling in her stomach. Scarlett was getting her shampoo and body wash from the cupboard when she noticed her packet of period pads unopened . Her last period was just before she decided to move to forks. She couldn't be could she? Surely not? She thought the only person she slept with in the last few years was with Carlisle and he's a vampire they can't pro create right? Rushing to go and get dressed still feeling sick , Scarlett drove to a pharmacy in Seattle to pick up a pregnancy test if she were to get one in forks. Word would get around to Charlie. An hour and a half later Scarlett returned home to an empty house still, so she ran up the stairs and locked herself in the bathroom to take the she'd taken it she had to wait two minutes for it to show.
In the meantime she phoned the one person she could rely on day or night. She phoned Renee . After a few rings she answered " Scarlett sweetheart how are you feeling baby girl?" Renee had asked " mom please don't freak but I really need you I think I may be pregnant with Carlisle and as you know he's gone I don't know what to do I've taken a test I'm waiting for the results bella hates me mum she's changed" Scarlett cried balling her eyes down the phone. Renee gasped mom mode kicked in , " right sweetie listen to mommy now, it's your choice if you are pregnant you can come back here for a bit and let bella clear her head or you can stay with your dad honey I worry about you, I'll stay right on the phone until you've got the result" Renee started crying too for she was younger than Scarlett when she gave birth to her she was Scarlett's age when she had bella. Scarlett's alarm rang letting her know the two minutes was up , turning the test over, glancing at it clear as crystal there were two lines positive! She was pregnant! " honey Scarlett baby talk to me love your scaring me " Renee begged down the phone." Mom it's positive how fast can you get here ? I want to come home for a bit I can't put this on dad not with bella how she is!" Scarlett said unable to stop crying. She promised herself she wouldn't get rid of her baby it was her and Carlisle's, in a way a part of him was with her now and that eased a bit of the pain on her chest." Actually sweetie we're just outside of Seattle we can get you in forty five minutes , we were looking at buying a house for you or at least getting an apartment so you've got space between you and bells" Renee explained. Scarlett let out a sigh of relief her mom was near. She quickly packed a few bags including her note and pregnancy test box so there's nothing to find should Charlie or bella come in her room. Half an hour later Scarlett walked down the stairs placing her bags by the door and was deciding
whether to leave Charlie a note. She left him a simple note saying she'd gone to stay with Renee for a bit so she wasn't a constant reminder and for him to ring her when he's alone so she can explain what's happening. With a knock at the door , Scarlett opened it to see Phil and her mother causing Scarlett to cry again. Scarlett leans to grab her bags but Phil stops her" I can do that princess , you know your like a daughter to me we had a great bond when you were a little girl , we did your daddy and daughter dances I was at every game and if you let me princess I promise to be by your side every step of the way through this " Phil told Scarlett grabbing her hand and holding it. Renee started crying . Bella never really did like the fact Renee married Phil after Charlie , but Scarlett always gave him a chance And there wasn't one time he let her down. " thank you daddy Phil but I'll be back here once things die down a little let's see how things go" Scarlett said settling in to the back of the car leaving her car behind.
When bella returned from the movies she was surprised Scarlett wasn't home and then she found the letter in an envelope addressed to Charlie. Thinking that the cullens had come back for her bella ran to Scarlett's room where all her photos of Scarlett and the cullens were gone. Bella used to come in when Scarlett was out or asleep to just look at the photo of Scarlett with the Cullen kids , in the photo was a smiling Edward and although Edwards told her it would be as if he never existed, she knew otherwise but that was all gone including her clothes. Bella come to the conclusion that the cullens came for Scarlett and left again. But why not her?
Charlie returned home to bella telling him Scarlett's gone and she left him a note in an envelope. When Charlie read the note he cried. She'd gone back to renee so he dialled Renees phone and sighed when she answered. " hello Charlie, yes Scarlett's with me , me and Phil came and got her " glancing back at Scarlett who had fallen asleep renee decided Charlie needed to know " she's pregnant Charlie with Carlisles baby and she didn't want time to tell you so you cannot tell bella Scarlett wants bella to move on first which is why she's coming home for a while with us, she will be back Charlie she's already said , I'll keep you updated and have Scarlett ring you when she's ready but please Charlie's for our girls sakes keep Scarlett's pregnancy quiet until she announces it herself " and with that renee hung the phone up right now Scarlett needed her that little bit more than bella. Renee had dialled their local hospital for an emergency scan for her daughter and was told they'd had a cancellation and could come in tomorrow .
Charlie out the phone down and told bella that Scarlett is actually with renee to give each other some space and that eventually she'll come back. Bella was happy with that knowing that Scarlett wasn't with the cullens either. Bella proceeded to make tea for her and Charlie just like the old days . It bothered Charlie that Scarlett thought she had to leave but when he saw bellas reaction he knew it was for the best.
The following morning renee and Phil both took the day off to sit and watch films with Scarlett before her scan appointment that afternoon. Renee and Scarlett both fell asleep watching dirty dancing. Phil took Scarlett's phone out and took a picture and then took the same picture in his phone and put it as his screensaver. Scarlett was the only one of Renee's daughters he referred to as his daughter , because when he'd show up to pick them up from dance class or from school parents evenings when they'd congratulate Phil on how bright his daughter bella is she's correct them saying he's not her dad, where as in Scarlett's parents evening her teachers would often say how much of s pleasure she was and how she was made class president and captain of the cheerleaders and say that his daughter was a nightmare when it came to fights she'd throw the first fist, to which Scarlett would shrug and smile. She'd never corrected the teachers about him being dad . She just said there was enough room in her heart for two dads just like there would be enough room for two moms if Charlie remarried. From that day on Scarlett was a daughter to him and he made sure everyone knew it. Phil glanced at the time before waking both his girls saying that had to go and laughed when Scarlett groaned about needing to pee again. At the appointment Scarlett wanted both Renee and Phil with her whisky they did the scan, not wanting to admit she needed the support right now. When the midwife scanned over Scarlett's slightly raised bump, there on the screen in front of there very eyes were two little babies.." Miss swan your having twin it's to early for the sex of them I'm afraid although i can say you are 18 weeks and 3 days pregnant congratulations I'll print out these pictures and then call a doctor in to double check their heartbeats they sound odd to me but it could just be my hearing bare with me a moment ". In that second Scarlett grasped onto her mums hand and held it for dear life." Hello miss swan I'm dr Reynolds I'm just going to give your babies a quick check over alright now let's see" he said as he glided the scanner over Scarlett's bump again and listened to both heartbeats." Well miss swan they are odd heartbeats but very strong heartbeats I'd like to request you come back in two weeks just to get checked out again and try to rest as much as possible okay?" Dr Reynolds Said and left the room. The midwife from before held some paper out to Scarlett so she could wipe the gel from her belly and gave her the photos of her children not one baby but two.
Scarlett Renee and Phil go home and Scarlett phones Charlie to tell him . He was over the moon he had two grandchildren on the way and told Scarlett to make sure Renee and her keep him updated and to take lots of photos so that when they are born he could
make and album. He also explained that bella was hanging out with Jake a lot more now and seemed to be on the mend.
Renee and Scarlett returned to the hospital two weeks later as asked only for dr Reynolds to be in shock at her size. Scarlett looked due to drop. Renee and the dr helped Scarlett onto the table and started the scan, " we'll miss swan their heartbeats
are still a little faster than the average heartbeat but they're strong and the fact theyre growing is nothing to worry about although my concern is when you were scanned you were sixteen weeks and three days you're now measuring 36 weeks , I don't
know what reasons there are for such a fast pregnancy I've never seen it and I've been a doctor for 25 years plus we can do some tests once they're born and healthy to do them now would be a risk to both them and you , although should you continue
the way you have I'd say you were due to go into labour within a week" Dr. Reynolds informed her. Now Scarlett was scared.
Back home Alice cullen had returned to see bella jump of a cliff but no news on Scarlett and she wasn't around. Bella had then explained that she'd gone to Phoenix nearly a month ago to live with renee for a while. Alice though it was odd that she hasn't seen Scarlett decide that. She them told bella how Edward had planned to kill himself and rushed to save him. She didn't return for three days and when she did she brought all the cullens back with her. Luckily Edward couldn't read Charlie's
mind so me never knew about the babies. Little did they know that whilst Victoria had given up on getting bella because she was protected by wolves day and night, she'd gone after Scarlett who was unaware and heavily pregnant.
Renee had gone to run to the shop to grab the last few things for Scarlett's hospital bag leaving scarlett alone in the house Phil was at a meeting about his season games. Suddenly there was a bang from upstairs so grabbing her phone Scarlett walked up the stairs only to turn the corner and come face to face with the first vampire she'd seen since the Cullen's left. Scarlett immediately noticed the difference in this vampire , she had flaming red hair and bright red eyes. That meant she
drank humans. " you know I didn't want to come after you , I came here to kill you but seeing that your having s baby I'll just hurt you enough to send a message to your dear sister bella and the mutts she was hanging around with until the Cullen's returned now I can't get near her yet here you are unprotected" Victoria taunted Scarlett and lunged for her but she wasn't expecting Scarlett to fight back, in a struggle they knocked multiple things over before Victoria threw Scarlett down the stairs. In the process setting of early labour. When Scarlett looked Victoria was gone and Scarlett's waters had broke , she phoned Renee who was too far away , so Renee phoned Phil. Scarlett was alone to deliver these babies with Renee talking to her down the phone as Scarlett started pushing Phil burst through the door and dropped his bag immediately snapping to action he gathered warm towels to wrap the babies in when they arrived. A few more pushes later Scarlett pushed out her little boy who wasn't crying she looked at Phil to do something before he could do anything Scarlett started pushing again, Renee ran through the door. "the little boys already out Renee he's not breathing you need to phone an ambulance Scarlett's already delivering the girl. An ambulance was dispatched Renee watched by Scarlett's side as she gave birth to a tiny girl both had the Goldest of eyes . Like their father thought Scarlett. Both babies were barely breathing . No body could do anything but wait for the ambulance . Renee took photos on Scarlett's phone of her with a baby in each arm and then she took photos of each baby so that if they did lose one or either Scarlett still had photos. The paramedics came and rushed Scarlett and the babies on to the hospital Renee phoned Charlie to let him know and that she'd keep him updated when she knew anything. As soon as they got to the hospital both babies were pronounced dead upon arrival , leaving Scarlett in pieces. Scarlett had lost everything.
They explained her options to her and told her they'd get the baby death certificates printed for Cj Anthony McCarthy Cullen and for Lilian Mary Cullen . Scarlett's world came crashing down. She was released from the hospital days later , with the death certificates and her child's ashes , she's didn't want them buried at least when she moved back and forth they'd be with her. Scarlett cried all day when she got home and decided that wanted to go home to him the house was to painful to be in right now and that he needs to let bella and the Cullen's know .
Charlie drive up to the cullens house with tears down his face. He knocked on the door which was opened by Edward. Edward invited him in." I apologise for intruding on you like this but there's things you should know regarding Scarlett you all need to hear it before she arrives in a few hours." Everyone took a seat and waited for Charlie to explain." Not long after you left both my girls were broken-hearted but Scarlett took it the worst she made herself sick or so i thought it wasn't until I was
working late one night that Scarlett had packed her bags and gone to Phoenix where she proceeded to tell me she was pregnant with your children Carlisle . As soon as she arrived in Phoenix renee took her for a scan where she measured eighteen weeks pregnant both baby's had odd heart beats so they requested she go back in two weeks which she did and by that time she was 36 weeks and the baby's heartbeats were still odd but strong. She gave birth four days ago alone after she was attacked in the home , both babies didn't make it Carlisle I'm sorry she's had their bodies cremated and she has birth certificates. The police are trying to find out who was in the home. The only description Scarlett gave was pale face, red hair and red eyes as if she was wearing coloured contacts. Scarlett's arriving soon I thought I should tell you all, she wanted to tell you bells but you weren't the nicest to her , you constantly left her for Jake. She named your children Cj Anthony McCarthy Cullen and Lillian Mary Cullen , Carlisle . Renee said she has photos and that they definitely had your gold eyes . I will say this give my daughter some time it's a shock to us all ." Charlie said and with a nod at the family he left the room to wipe his eyes. Renee had phoned to say they were almost there and to give them the Cullen's address as that's where Charlie was. Walking back in the room even Charlie could feel the depressing atmosphere, " change of plan Renee is bringing Scarlett here as she wants to see bella they'll be here shortly.
Ten minutes later Phil beeped the horn outside where Charlie and bella got up followed by the Cullen's. Charlie walked down the steps to get the door for his daughter when Phil beat him to it. Renee got out and took bella to the side for a talking to . When Scarlett stepped from the car the Cullen's all hit the floor by how fragile she looked. Charlie held his arms out for his eldest daughter who started to run into his arms but fell from the pain that shot through her." Scarlett princess go slow you're still healing although you should get checked out again , you've been in a lot of pain " Phil said catching her . Taking his advice she took slower steps to reach Charlie who cried when he felt her hug and her tears soak through his shirt . Scarlett had seen the Cullen's and that hit her hard that bella was back with them whilst Scarlett's been suffering since they left." Why me dad why my babies? I loved them daddy it hurts to bad I don't know if I can go on with this pain anymore" Scarlett said crying into her dads shoulder." Hey Scarlett we agreed no more talking like that I know your hurting but you are not to kill yourself okay you promised me sweetheart you wouldn't speak like that , I know your in pain believe me baby I know I've watched you and your stronger than you think, you keep going for those babies do them proud sweetheart I'm only a call away if you need me" Renee said to Scarlett knowing how Scarlett was feeling because they'd spoke about it before they left . Phil had already unloaded his car and loaded up Charlie's , when he removed the two small memorial boxes from the back of the car , with the name plate and photos of each baby on . Scarlett moved to take them . One by one she put them in the car , only keeping the photos out to show Charlie his grandchildren. Handing him the photos Charlie burst out crying saying how beautiful they were and how they're angels now. Even bella came over to see." Can you show them dad I can't it's too much too soon" I asked sitting on the car for support pulling my knees to my chest , mum and Phil kissed me goodbye and did the same to bella before driving away. I turned back to see all the Cullen's looking at the photos , looking heartbroken if Carlisle could cry he would be . Rose took steps towards me but I moved back and shook my head . It was way to soon to be near them after all they just left me behind like I didn't matter and all came back for bella . " I'm getting copies done soon so if anyone will want any let bella or dad know " I said taking back my photos from dad and sitting in the car , wiping my tears . Was crying all I was going to do from now on?
