Gabrielle was quiet for a moment, her hand stroking her stomach. Why did she look so nervous? Finally, she spoke.

"You know, Rosalie, you and I have gotten to know each other pretty well the past couple of days." I nodded in agreement, and she continued. "I learned a lot about you and you seem like a nice person. You're whole family's just great. You guys have done so much to help me and Nick. We're so thankful." I smiled. "We're so thankful, but I don't know if we'll be able to keep the baby."

"Oh, Gabrielle, I think you guys will be wonderful parents," I offered.

"I don't know, Rose. I mean, a newborn vampire, and a vampire who's used to drinking human blood? I don't think it would be wise to raise the baby ourselves. We've been tossing around the idea of adoption and Nick was against it at first, but I've always known in my heart that it would be the right thing for our baby, and now Nick thinks so, too. We both love this baby more than anything, but..."

"If you love it so much, then how could you possibly give it away? I know if I was in your situation, then..."

"You would keep it, I know. You would love it more than anything. That's because you want it so badly." She was more than right.

"But if you're going to become one of us after it comes, then this would be your only.."

"My only chance to be a mom, I know," she cut me off, "You told me that, Carlisle's told me that, even Nick said it was his only chance to be a dad."

"So keep the baby!" I exclaimed.

"But, Rosalie, we're so young. I'm 16, Nick's technically 19, we're not responsible enough to be parents. Plus, we're planning on traveling the world together, and having a baby would make that sorta difficult. So we starting thinking seriously about adoption."

"And you're sure this is what you want to do?" I asked her.

"Absolutely positive," she replied, "So we thought about who would be able to raise a vampire/human hybrid and our first thought was Bella and Edward because they have a kid, so they're experienced." Seriously? Bella was getting another kid, while I still had none? What's wrong with the world?

"We thought about it for awhile, but they already have a kid, so we vetoed that idea." I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. "Then we considered Esme and Carlisle, but they've got enough kids already. It was true. This house was getting a little crowded.

"We were at a loss for awhile, until we saw Emmett playing with Renesmee. He's a great uncle." I nodded in agreement. Was this going where I think it was?

"So, I thought, if he was such a great uncle, he would be an even better father. I talked him, and he said it would be amazing to be a father, only because it would mean he could see you as a mother. That's when I knew you would both be perfect parents for this baby. What do you think?" I sat there in shock for several moments. Then, slowly, a grin crept across my face.

"I think that would be amazing, but I don't how I'd ever repay you. You don't know how much it would mean to me. I mean us."

"You don't have to repay me. Your family has already given us so much. Our baby having a family that will love it more than anything is payment enough." I grinned and hugged her then ran off to find Emmett.

Within an hour everyone in the house had heard the news. We received congratulations from everyone, even Jacob. I finally convinced Alice to hand over the key to the nursery. It's lucky I didn't have to make a lot of changes because the baby would be here soon!

After that day, it was rare that I left Gabrielle's side. I was constantly with her, my hand on her stomach feeling the baby. It was the most amazing feeling in the world. I had finally found my way to Cloud Nine. Everything was going great with Gabrielle and the baby. There was no need to be concerned about anything yet. For now, everything was fine. I spent half my time daydreaming about what the baby might look like. Would it have Nick's bright blonde hair, or Gabrielle's chocolate brown curls? Gabrielle's baby blue eyes. Or Nick's bright red ones? No matter this baby looked like, I knew it would be loved more than any baby in the world.

Since I was spending practically every waking moment with Gabrielle, I was able to get to know her even better. She even told me the story of how she met Nick.

"I was walking home from work really late one night. I was completely exhausted, and not paying much attention to where I was going. Then, all of a sudden, Nick jumps out in front of me, poised low to the ground like an animal or something. He said it would only hurt a second, and although I wasn't sure what "it" was yet, I started screaming, telling him to leave me alone. It was a deserted neighborhood, so nobody heard me scream. I though my life was over until he suddenly stopped circling around me. He asked what perfume I was wearing, and said it smelled absolutely terrible. He asked what I was doing out at this hour, and I told him I had just finished work. He then said I was too pretty to die young. I thanked him, then he asked me if I was hungry. I was famished. He told me to follow him, and I tried my best to keep up. We ended up at a pizzeria, and he told me to wait outside. When he came back, he carried a whole pizza in his hand. We sat down on the curb, and we talked for hours while I ate almost the whole pizza. At that point, I was about to pass out from exhaustion, so he told me to hop on his back, which I did. The next thing I remember was waking up in my bed in the morning. Since that day we met at the pizzeria at the same time every night. Then, after my dad died, we moved in together, and I dropped out of school. That part was stupid, I know, but looking back now, I don't regret a thing." Carlisle interrupted then, saying the baby must be thirsty, and Gabrielle agreed he probably was. She took a quick gulp, and then we continued on with the conversation. I told her some names I liked for the baby, and she loved all my ideas. I was getting the feeling that maybe she was best off giving the baby up for adoption after all. Or should I say, my baby.
