P.s I'm very tired right now, so there might be mistakes.

Chapter 15

Bella

Being subjected to all of Eleazar's different tests was nerve wrecking, and draining at the same time. By the time he had finished, she just wanted to climb into bed and just sleep for at least twelve hours.

"So physically, you're healthy, however there were a few things that stood out to me" He began, looking down at his notes. "Your blood pressure was at an acceptable level, keep in mind that pregnancy does effect it, however it hasn't reached the point where it's dangerous, however we'll just keep checking it to make sure. But other than that, everything was fine. However in regards to your reflexes, and response time, you're responses were just a little bit above what I would expect to see for a human, let alone a pregnant human." He explained glancing at the two women.

"How far above human level?" Roalise questioned.

"Enough that if tested at a hospital red flags would be waved" He responded.

"I don't feel any different though" she said, looking down at her hands, as of she could suddenly spot any difference.

"I expect that these changes have progressed slowly overtime, and it also could be a matter of you not actually looking for any changes, therefore you might have subconsciously ignored any signs" Bella nodded at his words, understanding his point.

"Do we need to do anything about it, can anything even be done?" Rosalie asked.

"All we can do at the moment is watch, it's not effecting her negatively, so while it is something to take note of, it's not a pressing matter I don't think" Eleazar explained.

Sighing Bella nodded, she had expected that kind of response, they didn't know what was happening to her, so she didn't expect them to be able to do anything. Glancing over at Rosalie she could tell that the blonde was not happy with that news, but she didn't say anything in response.

"Now if you lay back, and lift your shirt I'll do an ultra sound and go from there" He said, making his way to the machine. She did wonder how it was that he had an ultra-sound machine, but she didn't ask. She preferred having that deniability , not that she thought they had done anything bad to obtain it, but you never know.

Swinging her body round, she lay flat on the cot, and raised her shirt while Eleazar got set up. She glanced over at Rosalie to see her watching the male vampires every move, and when he moved to squeeze the gel on her stomach, the blonde growled, causing him to freeze in his tracks.

"Rose?" Bella called, the blonde's head snapped up, her eyes meeting Bella's. The brunette frowned at the sight of Rosalie's darkened eyes, "Everything alright?" She asked, to which the blonde nodded. Holding up her left hand towards the blonde she waited for the blonde to take it, then gave a little tug, letting Rosalie know she wanted her at her side.

Keeping their hands together, Bella turned to Eleazar. "You can continue" she murmured. He glanced from Bella to Rosalie, and seeing no sign saying the blonde disagreed, he continued what he started, and squeezed the gel on her stomach.

Bella have a quick flinch, at the sudden cold feeling on her stomach. "What's wrong?" Rosalie immediately asked.

"It's cold" she explained. Eleazar began running the wand across her stomach, and she turned to watch the screen, not sure what she was looking for, but hoping to see something.

The sound of the babies heartbeat filled the room. Unexpectedly Bella felt tears filling her eyes, the sound suddenly making this feel real to her. Then she saw it, her baby, there in the screen. So tiny, but there.

"There's your baby Bella" Eleazar grinned. "I'd say, by it's growth that, and if you compare it to a normal pregnancy, you're about 8 weeks pregnant"

Her eyes widened in shock, while things seemed to be happening fast, it definitely hadn't been that long. She turned to Rosalie, only to see her staring at the screen, eyes filed with tears that would never fall.

Squeezing her hand, she waited until the blonde turned to her. "Hey" she whispered.

"Bella... you..." she shook her head, golden locks flowing behind her.

Bella smiled, "I know" she said.

And she did. She knew what having a child meant to Rosalie. Wasn't surprised by her reaction, this was everything she wanted. And Bella was happy that she was the one to allow Rosalie to experience it.

"You said she's around eight weeks?" Rosalie looked over to Eleazar.

"Well yes, normally this is what would be seen at an 8 week scan, which means, as we suspected, that the baby is developing quite quickly" he explained.

"Going by this when do you think it will be due" Bella asked.

"Honestly, I give it around two or three more months" He stated.

"That's quite soon" the blonde muttered.

"Indeed, we're all going to have to keep watch, the human body isn't made to go through those changes at this speed, so I do not doubt that there will be complications. Add on the fact that we don't know what exactly the baby is, and well it's best to be overly cautious" He said.

Bella nodded, what he said made sense. She watched as he switched the machine off, and accepted the towel he offered to begin to clean off her stomach.

"Just one more thing" He started. "I'm going to need some blood from you Bella" Rosalie's sudden stiffening wasn't hard to miss. "However, I think it might be best if Rosalie does that when the house is empty" he finished.

Rosalie nodded, her tense posture disappearing. "I'll take care of it" she promised.

"Right, then I believe were finished here, I'm just going to right up a few things, and look threw a few of the books I brought with me" He motioned to the box of books in the corner of the room.

"Thank you for doing this Eleazar" Rosalie stated.

"Of course, whether you're a part of the Cullen or not, you're still family" He smiled. And with that the two left the room.

Grabbing the cold hand next to her, Bella lead the way to her bedroom. Where she flopped down onto her bed, patting the space to her right, she motioned for Rosalie to lie next to her.

She watched as Rosalie made her eat to the bed, and then with a slight hesitation, gracefully sat down beside her.

"So" she found she didn't know what to say next, she hasn't actually planned to bring Rosalie back to her room, it has just happened.

"So?" She replied, one blonde brow raised, as she glanced over at Bella.

"You did quite a bit of growling back there" Bella heard herself saying. That wasn't what she wanted to say, she wanted to make sure Rosalie was okay. She could only imagine what kind of things the blonde was feeling. But seemed her mouth wasn't following her thoughts.

She watched as Rosalie closed off, she felt like she could see the walls being raised between them.

Before the blonde could even open her mouth, she rushed to say more. "I'm not upset, or uncomfortable or anything, it's just surprising, and not bad surprising either" The urge to slap her forehead was hard to resist, she was making a fool of herself.

The silence between them, after Bella's word vomit was extremely uncomfortable for the brunette. She had to fight off her desire to fidget, the longer no response was given.

"I'd prefer if we saved this conversation for another time" finally a reply. And yet, she felt confused, she didn't realise Rosalie's sudden love for growling was something that needed to be it's own conversation. However she nodded her agreement.

Awkwardness filled the room. "Are you worried?" Bella frowned slightly, it as obvious what the Rosalie was asking about.

"Terrified" She told her. "I don't know what's going to happen, and that terrifies me" she clarified.

"Understandable, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried for you, the to the both of you" Golden eyes flickered to the slight swell of Bella's stomach. "But we'll do everything we can to make this go smoothly"

And with those few words, she felt as if a bit of weight lifted off of her shoulders. Knowing she wasn't alone in this, was a great feeling.

"I know you will" She grinned up at her.

The was silence in the room, but unlike before, this one was peaceful.

Rosalie

"It's fascinating, don't you think?" Bella mused, eyes staring up at the ceiling.

"What is?" Rosalie asked, glancing down at her.

"That, that tiny baby, is actually inside me" Bella explained.

Rosalie nodded, she felt like she was a mess of emotions. In her heart she wanted this baby to be hers and Bella's, but she didn't want cause Bella any kind of stress by telling her, that she was her mate.

But it was obvious from her reactions to Eleazar, that trying to make it seem like she was just a friend, wasn't going to be possible for long. Her instincts were only getting stronger as time passed.

"It suddenly feels more real now" Bella muttered.

Rosalie couldn't help but agree.
