Thank you soo much, sorry about the cliffhanger last chapter but it's no fun otherwise…I am home to hopefully updates will be coming faster. I am feeling an end to this story… I just don't know when 

Emily's cries were hurting my ears. I opened my eyes while a squeezed the warm hand that gripped mine so tightly.

"Lace, you awake?"

"Yes, please help me up"

"Emily quit it, I told you you would wake her up!" his voice held a note of anger in it. I looked around my hospital room and Emily's beautifully scarred face was swollen and red, dripping with tears.

"Thank God you are awake" she rushed over and grabbed me in a hug. My brain was still in a slight fog but I put my arms around her and rubbed her back.

"I am fine, Emily why are you crying?" I took a desperate look at Embry to translate when her blubbering made no sense.

"Kim is in a coma" Emily's sobs got louder. "We think the babies are going to be fine, but they don't know if Kim is going to make it"

"What are you talking about? She was just lying there- what could have happened?" I felt the tears well up in my eyes. My hands were shaking and the nausea in my stomach returned.

"She hit her head Lace- those bloodsuckers-" his hands began to tremble.

"Stop Embry, she is going to be fine, she has to be" Sam appeared at the door with Jacob in tow. Sam gently lifted Emily and placed her in a rocking chair. He quickly came and kissed me on the cheek- not saying word. None were needed- he was happy I was alright. Jacob strode over and placed his arms around me.

"Thank you"

"For what?" he gave me a curious glance.

"You saved me you idiot" I cracked a smile.

"Oh that? That was nothing- I would do it again in a heartbeat." I hugged him tightly- he looked so worn. Jacob's life was tough- trying to live the fine line between the Cullens and our family. He was going a damn good job as far as I was concerned. Although I had just learned all of these things- I was quickly picking up why everyone was they were. Jacob was a protector with a big heart. As cocky as he could get, the women in his life came first- no matter what. It didn't surprise me when he quickly left. This was a lot for him to bare.

"Lacey, I am going to take you home now. The doctors said you are fine to check out- you are going to be out of work for a while."

"No- we need the money"

"We'll figure it out, first thing first, let's get you better. And the rest of this family" he had a far off look.

"Embry?"

"Yes, are you alright?" I pulled him close to me.

"Tell me she is going to be okay" my voice broke on my last word. "Promise me they are all going to be okay"

"I can't Lacey" I nodded solemly at him.

"I want to see her before I leave" He knew it was pointless to argue. After I was checked out, I was wheeled to a room full of beeping sounds. They hurt me ears there was so many. Jared sat on a chair clutching Kim's hand for dear life. What would happen to him if she died? My body shuddered at the thought. He looked up when we were fully in the room. For a second, he tore his eyes away long enough to stare at me. I hadn't looked in the mirror, we just placed my dress on. Embry had brushed my hair and placed it in a ponytail. I knew I was in for a shower- that was going to be rough. His eyes widened and for a second he looked relieved.

"I am glad you are okay" Embry wheeled me closer to Kim. My beautiful sister-in-law who lying lifeless on the bed. Her chest went up and down with her breathing- her stomach up in the air. The babies could be born any minute and here she was.

"Kim" I shook her arm. "Kim you need to wake up- for all of us" My body started to shake as the tears came rushing out. "It's not fair!" I screamed. "It should have been me lying in this hospital bed- not her. She didn't deserve this. Not on the happiest day of her life. Why is everything so fucked up!" My wedding had ended with this and now hers. I once envied the quiet girl for not only her composure but for having things go her way. I wouldn't admit to Embry that I hated that she was having twins before we got to have our children. And now here she was. "Oh, Kim- I promise if you wake up, everything will be good" my tears had blocked my vision completely. I felt Embry kneel and wipe them off. He whispered roughly in my ear.

"This was never supposed to be you"

"Yes it was, yes it was, that's what she wanted"

"No, Lacey- My ex-girlfriend was there too- she didn't play the dramatic role but she was there- she did this to Kim" At that, Embry wheeled me out. I was placed in the truck. We didn't talk on the way home, I wasn't hungry at dinner. Suddenly the phone rang. I answered it groggily.

"Hello?"

"Lacey- Lacey, Kim is awake and the babies are coming"

"Embry!" I screamed "She is awake" we sped to the hospital, going way over the legal speed limit and found ourselves face to face with a smiling Kim holding to beautiful babies. I rubbed my eyes, trying to get myself to wake- up. It wasn't going away. Everything was going to okay- I could feel it, I really could.
