AN: SM owns all. I own my shame. Not fair.

Chapter 7

Renesmee's POV

I place my hand on my stomach and sigh happily. Jake takes my other hand and squeezes it gently. I look up at him and smile. His face breaks into a big grin. "We don't know anything yet, Jacob. Don't get all excited," I scorn Jacob but can't keep my own excitement at bay. I press my hand against the warm spot on my stomach.

"What else could it be, Nessie? I really don't think you aren't not pregnant." Jacob whines and smiles softly.

"Ew! Don't say pregnant! Especially when we are so close to home! I really don't want Edward to hear anything right now! He wasn't too happy about us even trying! I really don't want him to know unless its truthful!" I shudder and watch Jacob press his foot harder down on the accelerator.

"Renesmee, because you've asked me to I won't but just stop saying 'ew!' it makes me feel like what we are doing is wrong. We aren't married yet…this is out of order," Jacob pulls the car up to the house and turns off the car.

Carlisle is at the door waiting for us. So I smile at him and get out of the car. My swollen stomach has already made it harder for me to walk normally. Jacob's probably right. Carlisle's eyes survey me neutrally. "You guys couldn't figure out your theory was right?" Carlisle chuckles and comes to my aid. He helps me up the stairs and into the house. Jacob follows close behind.

We go to Carlisle's study and shut the door behind us. In the room is Alice and Jasper in a heated argument about how close they can get their faces. Carlisle clears his throat and they spring apart. Alice smiles at me and runs to touch my stomach. Jasper follows behind curiously.

"Wow, how long have you been like this?" Alice says shocked. I shrug and smile. Jasper smiles and lightly punches Jacob on the arm congratulatory.

"We started three weeks ago, just trying so somewhere in that time frame I guess…"I blush and got to Jacob's side.

"This is the product of three weeks?" Carlisle says incredulously and picks up a few charts and spreads them over his desk. On the first chart is Bella's pregnancy charts. The second chart holds the information of Angela Weber, some human, I guess. "On a normal human's chart you are 7 months along…so on your mother's chart….how many children are you carrying, Renesmee?" Carlisle looks at my stomach with confusion and runs over to me. Jacob stands protectively in front. I push him away and let Carlisle get closer. I lift my shirt slightly to reveal my stomach. Carlisle presses a cool hand to it. "Why is it warm, only in this spot?" Carlisle murmurs to himself and runs from the room.

Jacob pulls my shirt back over my stomach and rubs the warms spot tenderly. I smile up at him worriedly. What am I carrying?

Bella's POV

I watch as Becca finishes her story without listening anymore. I just cant' I can't let anything happen. I will finish this.

Carlisle runs into the room and Edward's head snaps up. Carlisle stares at Edward and leaves.

"I'm needed in the study." Edward says and leaves. I look at Becca with confusion. She jumps up and follows Edward. What choice do I have but to follow?

Renesmee is surrounded by her family. I push past them all and am faced with….everything. She has tears in her eyes. I wipe a few of them away from her cheeks and smile.

"Are you okay?" I ask her. No one will understand what she is feeling now. They have never been mothers.

"Something's not right…" Renesmee whispers and lifts her shirt slightly. I press my hand against the red spot and find it not surprisingly warm.

I walk over to Carlisle and summon him and Edward out of the room. Jacob follows annoyingly.

"Is it possible her baby has shape shifter powers?" I ask Carlisle.

"It could be. This has definitely been done. She is really pregnant, Bella. She has passed you exponentially." Carlisle says and looks at Edward.

"That red spot wasn't there before we got here and you started prodding her, doc. Could that have anything to do with anything?" Jacob asks insightfully.

"Can you go bring me Renesmee?" I ask of Jacob who agrees.

"Why would the baby be so warm though?" Edward asks. This time he isn't calling the baby 'fetus'. Good to know he's learned.

"It could be that the werewolf abilities are already there. Or because Jacob is the Alpha its powers are stronger."

Renesmee steps into the hallway and looks relieved. Jasper must have calmed her. "have you figured anything out yet?"

Edward steps toward Renesmee and places his head near the baby. He waits and smiles.

"Renesmee, I'm going to go over my theories really quick for you. Whenever you hear something wrong, tell me. I don't want to waste any time on poor theories. Okay?" Carlisle asks gently. Renesmee nods and looks at her now exposed stomach. Edward is still listening intently to her baby.

"Your baby has werewolf abilities that have already manifested. Your baby will not have to wait to hit puberty to become a wolf. That is why it is so hot. When werewolves get annoyed they became wolves. So when we became poking at it he became annoyed and transformed. That's why that red spot is there now. But if he doesn't stay in human form he will not develop as normally as possible. This also explains your size already. With a mixture of two fast blooming parents he has cut your time being pregnant really short. You probably have two or three weeks left." Carlisle rambles and looks expectantly at his granddaughter.

"That all sounds so probably except where are the vampire and human in him? Doesn't that exist?" Renesmee asks. Carlisle opens his mouth to explain but Edward cuts him off.

"There isn't a baby in here. There are three. Two have the vampire abilities and the other has the shape shifter ability. That's what happened to the vampire part. The children are growing extremely fast and understand so much. The one knows he cannot phase because it hurts the others but he cant help it. I use the term he loosely," Edward says for Renesmee who thought she found out the gender of her child, "But they need you to stay calm. When you are anxious they are anxious. They are controlled by you."

"Will they survive?" Renesmee asks Edward and he nods.

Jacob takes Renesmee and kisses her gently on the lips. Edward bursts out laughing and pushes them apart. Jacob growls and raises his hands in exasperation, "What now, Edward?"

"Your kids don't want you to do that! They hate feeling so in love with their dad! They will come out so confused if you keep doing that!" Edward laughs again and leans against the wall to keep him standing up.

Renesmee laughs too and hug Jacob fondly. "Is this okay?" she asks Edward, he nods though his laughter.

"Sorry to break up this love fest but Bella, don't you have a human to feed?" Becca asks icily from behind me. I growl and leave the house without a second glance.

Charlie's POV

She's late. She must have know I was acting strange all day and decided not to come back. Tomorrow I'll get her notice that she's quitting. I just know it.

"Sorry, I'm late Charlie! I had a family thing!" Marie calls when she opens the front door. I watch her smile at me kindly and begin to pull out the food she will be using.

"Don't be sorry, Bella, I was just wondering if you were ever coming back," I say timidly. If this doesn't work she'll think I'm crazy.

Marie turns around slowly and has a mournful expression on her beautiful face. "It's true then. You did figure it out…"

I smile and feel my eyes start to water over. Bella comes across the room and hugs me.

"Why didn't you tell me?" I ask her. She steps back and looks at the ground.

"It's against the law…"

"It's against the law to fake your own death too."

"Its against vampire law, Charlie. They will kill us. I was hoping you wouldn't figure it out so soon. I wanted to stay with you for a long time."

"Did you know what you were marrying into?" I ask the question that has haunted me all day. Was her life so bad she would choose this over growing up.

"I did, I always knew."

"What are we going to do about this law?"

"There is only one thing to do."

"Is it going to hurt?"

"Only if you choose the vampire path."

"Can I?"

Bella's POV

If I could cry again I would be bawling. This isn't fair. This isn't fair to me. To Charlie. To my family. Can Charlie become a vampire? Yes. Should he? No.

"You can't become a vampire." I tell my father.

"Why not?" Charlie says angrily.

"Because you don't know what you're getting into."

"Did you?" Charlie shoots back.

"Yes."

"Why is it your decision?"

"Because I have the power to turn you."

"And so does everyone else in that house of yours." Charlie picks up his car keys and heads to his car.

I run past him and run all the way home. I have to warn everyone.

We wait for Charlie to arrive in the living room. I have my head on Edward's shoulder. "Do I have to make a decision?" Edward nods sadly. He knows what I want to do is different from what I should do. Isn't it always?

When Charlie comes I will tell him everything. The Volturi will come for us if we don't decide soon. Becca has already chosen her way. The way of a snitch.

She alerted them once she found out what I was doing. A false friend. A false ally. False…

Bella's POV

There comes a time in every one's life where they have to make a big decision. I thought I had already made mine. Turns out I was wrong. This has to be the hardest thing I ever have to do.

I don't think I can make it. If I choose one way, I will be happy. I will be selfish.

If I choose the other way…I ruin someone's life…forever…

Forever is a very long time…

I should know…

I know everyone has their smoldering eyes on me. I don't need a keen sense to tell me that. They all are waiting. How will I decide? How can I decide?

"Bella? What are we going to do?" croons Edward from behind me miserably. I sigh and stifle a dry sob. Vampires can't cry. But my body yearns to…

I turn to look at my family. My beloved family. My family that always put their lives on the line for me. And what have I done to repay them? I placed everyone in grave danger…because…because…I wanted everything…everything I can't have…everything I shouldn't need…

I whisper the only words I can think of, "I'm sorry." I look slowly around the room and take in my family.

I look first at Edward, the man I love, my soul mate. His face is tired but still magnificent. He looks worried, never for him. Always for me. He smiles gently. I smile a small smile at him.

Alice and Jasper. Alice is perched on Jasper's knee with a look of deep concentration. Trying as hard as she can to see the outcome of or near future. One that drifted away so quickly this afternoon. Jasper is concentrating on keeping me strong. Strong enough to make a decision.

Rosalie and Emmett. Rose…she knows what it is like to want what you cannot have. But even she wouldn't have done this. She has shared her views with me. She is only here to hear my choice. Then she will leave…Emmett lounging on the couch as if nothing is wrong. When I look at him he raises his eyebrows expectantly.

Carlisle and Esme. My adopted parents. So serene but radiating with disapproval. How could I have done something so stupid? So meaningless? So…selfish? I didn't even know I was capable of this…

Renesmee and Jacob. Renesmee glowing in Jacob's arms. Happy. Where she planned to be forever. I took that away from her. Not even married yet. They've known each other for only a few years because of a beautiful twist of fate. Not meeting when she was born but seven years later. Their love wasn't harmed a bit by that. But now it is challenged by me.

Becca. Rebecca. So many words to describe her…how to do it in such a limited time?

I turn to look at the last person in the room. My father. The man who assumed I was dead for so long. Charlie. I never wanted to hurt him again. But I did. I thrust him into the dangerous world I belong too…for what? Me.

I walk over to my father who is sitting on the floor, back rested against the wall. He smiles weakly at me. I can't return the smile. He notices and clutches him broken arm to him defensively. I sigh and sit next to him

"You've made your decision." Charlie says certainly.

"Yes." I say evenly. I notice the rest of the family tune into our conversation.

"It will hurt."

"I don't know."

"Thanks for the honesty, kid. No sugar coating when it comes to death."

"Please, don't think of it like death, Charlie," I whisper loudly enough for him to hear. He looks at me sarcastically. I shrug.

"It's better than facing them, though, isn't it?"

I almost laugh. Charlie is so new into the world. But he already knows about the fate of the Volturi.

"Will I see you again?" Charlie asks me.

"I don't know. It depends how long forever is."

Edward comes over to us and holds out his hand. I take it and let him lift me from the ground. I turn to my family and smile sadly.

"I've made my decision and it is to turn Charlie," my voice cracks unnaturally and I place my hand on my throat. "I'll turn him into a vampire as soon as possible. It's what he wants. I don't know if I will be able to handle his blood…but he doesn't want anyone else to do it…even if it ends with death for him…he doesn't want the death of us."

Renesmee smiles gratefully at Charlie even though he still doesn't know who she is yet. That is for another day. Might as well explain it to him when he has vampire memory.
