Recap-

"Let's get out of this tree, I need to go home and see Edward, can you come with me?"

Jake grabbed my hand; we jumped out of the tree and landed on our feet. 'OMG! Did I just do that?' I thought to myself.

Jake and I ran back to the big white house, to my future, to my life, and to my Edward.

Chapter 30: The Changing

(Jake POV)

As Bells and I jumped out of the tree, I could see the changes in her even more then the last time I had seen her.

At that time I didn't know what was going on or what to think. Now I'm sorry that that bloodsucking leech got to lay his hands all over Bella.

I wish she was my Bella, but now that she was having his baby or God knows what she was really having, she can never be mine again.

Now all I can be is what she wants most from me, her best friend and closest ally. I swallowed hard and grabbed her hand as we jumped.

I was hoping that my gut feeling was right and that she would not get hurt. And she didn't. I smiled at her and let her hand go as we took off running to the leeches' house.

What was I going to say to him? Congrats' on knocking up my Bella. Well no, that wouldn't work. Could I just rip him up? Yeah, that sounded better. I smiled to myself and Bella hit my arm.

"Jake, I can read your mind, and you will not rip any part of Edward up, got it?!" Bells told me.

"Anything for you Bells," I said back.

My love for this girl was going to bring us through anything, that she would need me for.

We got to the house in no time and the whole family was outside waiting for her and me to come back. That blond head guy must have told them that we were up the tree together.

As I looked around, everyone looked happy that Bella was coming back. I didn't see the mother, Esme, I believe is her name and I didn't see Edward.

I looked at Bells and she saw that Edward was nowhere to be seen. The smile on her face fell and I watched her fall to her knees.

"Bells are you alright?" I asked as I ran off toward her. The tall blond Barbie-looking girl and the short black haired pixie-like girl was fast on my trail.

They were worried about Bella too or was it the baby, I was unsure. "Where's Edward?" Bella said at a whisper.

I grabbed her, wrapped my arms around her, and was wiping away the tears, when Barbie snapped at me.

"Dog leave her to us! Get you dirty paws off her!" Barbie said.

"Rosalie, be nice, Jacob is Bella's friend." The short spiky haired one said.

"Alice, he may hurt her, move out of the way dog!" So Blondie was Rosalie and the pixie was Alice.

"No, Rosalie I will not move, Bells and I have been close longer than you have been in her life. I will never leave her or hurt her, I love her," I told her, well, them.

"Rose, Alice, he's telling the truth." We all turned to see Edward standing there, looking down on Bella and I, who were sitting on the ground.

"Edward?" Bella whispered before she passed out. "She needs your blood Edward; you need to trade some of it now." Alice said tapping her temple.

"You are not feeding her blood, leech! She's going to be fine, let me take her to the hospital," I snapped.

"Jacob Black, I'm not sure what Bella is going through, but she's changing in more ways than one. She's not only becoming a new kind of vampire but a mother as well. I speak the truth because I am also changing myself. Carlisle thinks that since we shared blood and that it was given out of love and not take against her will, we are both becoming a new type of vampire. I can cry now and have had other things more human-like happening to me just like she has had more vampire-type things happening to her," Edward said as he took a step closer to Bells and I.

"May I?" he asked me and I nodded yes. "Edward, please help her. I would do anything for her," I told Edward.

He picked her up and carried her into the house, we all followed close behind. The house was big and beautiful but it smelled so sickly sweet, I thought I might puke.

"Stay here dog, so you don't spread your stink all over our home," Barbie said as she pointed to the big pillow on the floor.

"Listen here Barbie hurl (yeah I mean hurl and not girl), the only thing I'm going to do right now is stay with Bella and you can stop me or I will kill you, got it?!" I told her and walked up the stairs to Edward's room and my Bella.

Carlisle came up and asked everyone but Edward and I to wait in the hall. He checked Bella and said that she was in good health and that she was just exhausted, she was asleep.

"The baby takes a lot out of her as does the change, Edward she really could use some of, uum, your blood, it'll help her." Carlisle said.

I looked at Edward and with his eyes he asked me if I trusted him enough to let him and Bella do what was needed.

I looked at Bella and her eyes was fluttering open and she smiled a small smile at me and I knew then that I would let him do whatever he needed to make her better

Even if it meant that she drinks some of his blood and he drinks some of hers. As hard as it was, I smiled and kissed her on her forehead and told her I would be downstairs if she needs me for anything.

I turned and smiled one last time at best friend, human Bella. The next time I would see her she would be more vampire than human.

But, as always, Bella will still be Bells and I will always love her.

(Edward POV)

"Carlisle, I am crying!" I exclaimed.

I heard Alice and Rose think at the same time and then yell "NO, BELLA!" Then I watched the love of my life jump out of the bedroom window and run off into the woods.

I sat there crying and thinking that I was going to lose Bella now on top of it all. Why would she jump out the window? Was she truly not happy about being a monster like me?

Having a baby that could be a monster too, maybe that was all too much for my love. My father put his hand back on my shoulders and tried to comfort me the best way he could.

A while had past and Jasper and the others had returned home without Bella. I was looking into their heads to see what was going on and I saw the worst thing in Jasper's head.

My Bella was sitting up in a tree, which is not the bad part; she is with that that over grown MUTT!

How could she want to be with him? He treated her like dirt and claimed it was all in the name of love. Hell, I love clean clothes and a fast car but I treat my car and clothes better then the way he treats her.

I felt sick, I mean to my stomach. The burning in my throat lessened, but I felt a weird pang in the pit of my stomach. Was I hungry? No, I couldn't be, human food was gross and I wasn't going to start eating it, no matter what!

My family went outside to wait for Bella to come back home. Alice had had vision and knew she would be coming back.

All though, there was a big blob in her vision, so that must be Jacob Black. Yeah, one big blob, that sounds about right.

Within the next hour, Bella was running home, I could feel her and the baby as they grow closer to me. I heard Jacob's mind and knew he was in tow. Of all the nerve, he thinks he's going to rip me up.

Let's just pull an Emmett and say, "Oh hell no, I don't think so." Bella and Mr. Black was back before I could pull myself together.

I heard Jacob and Rosalie arguing back and forth and smiled at the witty come backs that she had for mutt boy.

I heard Bella ask where I was. Great, here I am not being there for her again, 'Monster,' was all I could think to myself.

I pulled myself up off the floor and told myself to be the man Bella fell in love with and try to understand this, whatever this was, happening to me and her.

I ran outside and to my Bella's side. I felt like such a failure, that dog had his arms wrapped around my love, my Bella.

"She needs your blood Edward, you need to trade some of it now," Alice said out loud as well as in her mind.

"You are not feeding her blood, leech! She's going to be fine, let me take her to the hospital," Jacob Black said.

Was he mad? If she went to the hospital she would not get the right type of help. Alice knew what she needed as did I. My Bella was calling to me in my head.

I needed her in my arms as much as she needed me right now. They all love us, well most of them do, but it's Bella and we're changing, it's new to all of us, but we're living it.

I tried to explain what was going on to Jacob and how I knew what I knew, but he was freaking out on me.

I asked if I could pick Bella up and carry her inside and he nodded yes, but he was close behind me every step of the way.

My father checked Bella over and told Jacob and I that she would be fine, but the baby was taking a lot out of my love and that she needed me and we needed to, well, do what we do best.

Get your mind out of the gutter, what we do best is love each other. I asked Jacob with my eyes to trust that I love Bella and I would do whatever was needed of me.

Bella woke up and smiled a weak smile and she and he had a moment and then he left the room.

"Edward, I need you please," Bella whispered.

"I'm here, love," I told her as I used my teeth to cut my arm and I held it up to her mouth, she lifted her head and started to drink from me.

Bella smiled and used her teeth to make a small cut in her arm and offered herself to me. I smiled my crooked smile at her and took her into my mouth and fed from her.

I just sat there and held her after for what must have been hours, the sun was coming up and I felt tired. I watched my love fall asleep in my arms and I laid my head on hers and slept, that was a first time in over almost a hundred years.
