Demetri POV
I looked down in horror.
There, my daughter Iris lay in her crib…unmoving, and the sheets stained by a little of her blood.
My angel.
I fell to my knees in shock, unable to believe what just happened, I lost my little girl, this is my fault, if I had gotten here sooner she would be safe, she'd still be alive!
"Ahhhh!"
I look behind me in alert, hearing Bella screaming again, but then I see Carlisle looking her over, but then I see him looking at her area and then looking at Bella in shock, then he looks to me with the same expression on,
"Demetri, there's another one coming" he says.
From this I'm suddenly by Bella's side, though still looking at Carlisle with shock,
"But you only said we were having twins, not triplets" I say,
"I can't explain it – but we need to help Bella bring the last one out, she's already started to close up, they may not be able to come through" he says, from this I look at him alert and more focused than ever.
"I just lost one Carlisle, I won't let another go either" I say, from this he nods stiffly,
"If their unable to come the natural way Demetri then I'll perform a C-section" he says, from this I nod in agreement. He had told me in the past few weeks about some of the procedures he may have to do in order to give birth to the kids in case something unexpected happened.
"Bella! You have one more coming, now I need you to push very – very hard alright" says Carlisle, from this she nods and then as soon as he says, she begins pushing but crying at the same time.
"Carlisle! Please! Help them out!" she screams, clutching my hand in a death grip.
"Bella you need to push harder!" yells Carlisle, looking at Bella sharply,
"I can't! It hurts so much when I do!" she cries. I kiss her forehead, knowing she's going through such pain and yet she was still trying so hard.
"Alright I'm going to have to do a C-section, you've closed up Bella and we need to get your baby out before they die inside you" says Carlisle, now getting some equipment out and ready,
"Demetri! Please! Don't let our baby die! Please!" she cries, looking up at me with pain and fear in her eyes, from this I nod, then quickly kiss her lips.
"Alright, Bella this will hurt but it's the only way to get them out quickly" says Carlisle who I now see has a scalpel in his hand. I don't let Bella see this otherwise I know she'll get more scared.
"Do it Carlisle" I say.
Though when I start to smell blood I know he's started and I also know this because Bella is crying harder, this must really be hurting, but it's the only way to get the baby out alive.
After only a minute, I then begin to hear a beautiful sound.
I look back to Carlisle to see him holding another baby who's crying.
"It's a girl" he says smiling, I smile back, we have a girl, thank god she's alive.
"Demetri" says Bella; I look to her to see her looking very calm suddenly,
"Let me see her please" she says, with this I nod, then after finding Carlisle holding our new baby girl in a blanket and clean, I take her and carry her over to Bella for her to see.
"Angel" she whispers, I smile when she says this, knowing that she's named our daughter this, and a perfect name for her it is.
"Demetri, her hearts getting slower" says Carlisle who I suddenly see on the other side of Bella looking at her, I look at Bella in alarm to find that her heart is slowing down from hearing it beat slowly.
"Esme!" I yell, and as soon as she comes I hand her Angel and then go to Bella's side.
"I'm going to save you Bella, I'm going to make sure you stay with us" I say to her in her ear, when I look at her I see her smiling at me with that peaceful look and then slowly nod.
Then I lean over her neck, not too slowly, and then bite her neck, injecting her with my venom like the last time.
And just like last time, she fell into a sleep,
"Demetri?" says Carlisle looking down at me confused,
"She was like this when I first bit her Carlisle, she doesn't thrash or scream or anything. She just looks like she's asleep" I say, from this he looks to Bella then nods.
Slowly after I know Bella is alright, after we've cleaned her up a bit and Alice has put her into some comfortable clothes. I go over to the cots, finding my son Kyle and his sister Angel lying asleep in their blankets. They are so beautiful.
Then I look to Rose who I see looks like she would be crying if she could,
"I'm so sorry Demetri, I tried to protect Iris but…i…there were many of them and they had me pinned after a while and I couldn't do anything – I'm so - so sorry!" she cries.
I walk over to her and bring her into a hug,
"I understand Rose, I'm not mad at you, I know you did your best. The only thing we can do now is…remember her" I say, though thinking this I feel as if I would be crying too. I lost one of my babies today. And I'll never forgive myself.
"Demetri!" screams Alice, I look up from hearing her and then see her standing in the doorway looking at me in shock but also with what I can tell is happiness.
"You have to come see this" she says, then hurries away.
At first I don't know what to do, but then knowing she wouldn't tell me to come if it wasn't so important I hurry after her to see what she is on about.
And my god was I surprised.
