Bella's POV
The last few weeks have been a blur. Between moving my things into Carlisle's house and everything else that was going on it was just exhausting. I was currently sitting in the garden reading a book, while Esme was planting some new flowers in the garden. The sun was out so I had offered to help Esme with the gardening, but after planting about 3 bedding plants I was tired. That's what happens when you are a vampire who is around 8 months pregnant, so right now, I was sitting on sun lounger with a book. It felt so nice to be able to be outside in the sun without worrying about people seeing you. Since meeting Jasper I had never been able to understand why Edward and the rest of them had stayed with Carlisle and Esme over the years. Now, while I was sitting in the garden, in the sun with no worry about being seen, I realised. It was safe here, they didn't need to worry about who was going to see them, or what they would do if they were seen out in the sunlight. That was the one thing that bothered me about having this baby, that I would never be able to take her outside in the sun because her sparkling skin would bring to much attention on her. But, I wasn't going to think about that now. She will be here in a week or so and I can't wait for her to get here. Mainly because I was inpatient to meet her, and secondly because I needed to go hunting again. Don't get me wrong the human stuff is good, but I really need to run and catch something. Drinking blood out of a glass just isn't the same.
While I was sitting on the lounger, I had a sudden pain in my back. I don't know why, but for the last few weeks, I had been having really bad pains in my back. I think it was the baby trying to get comfy in there. I bet it is getting a bit cramped in there for her. I rubbed my back and pushed on it a little, so that if it was the baby, she would move. Thankfully after I applied a little bit of pressure the pain went away and I could feel the baby moving to the front of me this time.
I sighed and lay back on my lounger.
"What's the matter beautiful?" I heard my husband ask from behind me.
"Your daughter isn't very comfy in there, and she is letting me know about it. I'm surprised she hasn't kicked herself out yet." I told him, as I rubbed my stomach.
"She will be here soon, then you will have your body back all to yourself." He said as he leaned around me to kiss me on the lips.
"I know. And as much as I haven enjoyed the whole pregnancy thing, I really can't wait for it to be over. I can't remember how I lasted during 9 months of this." I said, really trying to think back to when I had Charlotte.
"It was normal for you the last time you had a baby. This time you are totally going against what is natural. Of course it is going to be strange and un-comfortable." Jasper said, sitting next to me on the ground.
"I know. I just want her out now." I said as I sat up on the lounger. I was really starting to feel uncomfortable so I was moving around all the time.
"Do you want to go lay down for a while. I can tell you're not comfy." Jasper asked me.
"That might be a good idea. You're going to have to pull my fat ass up though." I said as I held out my hands for him to help me up.
"You are not fat." He said as he helped me up.
I begged to differ. I was the one who couldn't see my feet anymore.
As I waddled into the house, someone came in through the front door. Just as I was rounding the corner, I saw Charlotte coming towards me.
"Where are you going?" she asked me, sounding very strict.
"I'm going to lay down for a bit. This baby is moving around so much, it is impossible for me to keep still. Almost as bad as you were." I told her as I moved towards the stairs with Jasper hovering beside me.
"I'll come up with you. Do you mind Jas?" she asked him.
"Of course not, call me if you need anything." Jasper said, before leaving me and my daughter alone.
Charlotte helped me up the stairs so that I could get to mine and Jasper room. I opened the door to find my cat sleeping on the bed. Yes, I had brought my cat with me. That was one of the things that me and Jasper had argued about when we decided to move in here for a while. I wasn't about to leave my cat alone in my house while I was here.
"Hello baby girl." I said to the cat as she woke up.
"You realise she is a cat right?" Charlotte asked me, as I sat on the bed.
"Of course I know that. But ive had her since she was a kitten, sorry for getting attached." I told Charlotte.
She came and sat on the bed next to me, which of course made the cat move. She wasn't a very social creature to begin with, add vampires she didn't like very much to the mix was enough for my cat to vacate the room.
"How long do you think it will be before my little sister will be here?" Charlotte asked me.
"Hopefully not long. She is getting a little bit fidgety in there." I said, running my hand over my stomach.
"Well, she doesn't have a lot of room in there. Do you blame her? Id be the same if I was stuck in a small space for a long time." Charlotte said.
"You were the same! I didn't sleep for months when I was having you. As soon as you started moving that was all you did for months. I didn't sleep for the last three months of my pregnancy." I told her.
"I'm sorry." My daughter apologised quietly.
"You don't need to apologise you silly girl. Anyway, I forgave you as soon as you were born because you were so beautiful." I said to her in a babyish voice at the end, laughing.
If my daughter could blush, I can guarantee she would have done it at this moment.
Charlotte and I stayed in my room talking for a while just spending time with each other.
Suddenly, I had a terrible pain all across my front. I knew what it felt like, but I refused to believe that I was in labour. It was to early!
I sat straight up off the bed and brought my hands down, and around my stomach.
"Mama! What's wrong?" Charlotte asked frantically over me.
"I think your sister will be here sooner than we thought." I said through gritted teeth. Good god, I forgot how much this hurt.
"What can I do?" Charlotte asked me, sounding panicked.
"Try and calm down a bit, otherwise Jasper is going to be up here in a second." I said, as the contraction subsided.
"Do you want me to get Jasper?" she asked me.
"No, he will just panic. It is better if we keep him in the dark for a while. It could be a while yet before anything happens." I told her as I lay back down on the bed. This was only the beginning and I knew it. Before I would tell Jasper, I wanted to know how far apart the contractions were. So I could have some idea about how long I would be doing this for.
Apparently, having an accelerated pregnancy, means that you go through accelerated labour as well. Just as I had gotten over the first one, the second one hit me.
Since I didn't have as much time as I thought I would, I decided that I really should tell Jasper that I was in labour, so I sent charlotte downstairs to tell him. Within Seconds, Jasper was upstairs and standing next to me.
"Bella, are you ok?" Jasper asked, as he held my hand.
"Yeah, I'm fine. You're going to be a daddy sooner than we thought it was gonna be." I told him, as I caught my breath.
I stood up off the bed and walked around a bit before my next contraction hit.
"Is Carlisle home by any chance?" I asked Jasper, since I hadn't seen Carlisle all day.
"He is in work, but Alice is just about to call him to come home. How long do you think this is going to take?" he asked me.
"Normally, it can take hours, but I have got a funny feeling that I am going to have to do this in maybe 1 or 2." I told him.
I was just about to say that we should have enough time because my waters haven't broken, just as I felt my waters running down the back of my legs.
Before I could say anything, yet another contraction hit me. Jasper was next to me in a flash holding my hand.
"What can I do Bella? I'm really feeling helpless at the moment." He asked me, as I gritted my teeth and cried through the worse contraction I had had so far.
"Get behind me and hold my hands." I told him. This one was lasting longer that the last 2.
Jasper moved so that his chest was against my back and he could hold my hands in front of him.
I had to catch my breath after that one.
"How long is Carlisle going to be?" I asked Jasper.
"He shouldn't be long baby. He should be here soon." Jasper told me as he kissed the side of my head.
45 minutes later, Carlisle came in through the door. I was still in my room breaking the bones in my husbands hands through every contraction, so when Carlisle came in, I don't know who looked happier, me or Jasper.
"You're a bit early Bella. Is everything going ok?" he asked me as he pressed his hand on my stomach to feel where the baby was.
"Oh yeah, everything is great. I only feel like someone is ripping out my insides, but apart from that everything is peachy." I snapped sarcastically.
"The baby seems to be quite low, but I can't tell from this how far along you are. Do you mind if I examine you?" Carlisle asked me, ignoring my earlier rudeness.
"Will it get the baby out quicker?" I asked him.
"I won't know if I don't check." He told me.
"Fine. I just want this thing out of me." I said as I lay on the bed. Carlisle left the room, while Jasper helped me remove my clothes from the lower part of my body. As soon as they were off and I was covered, Carlisle came back in.
"How long have you been having contractions Bella?" Carlisle asked as he examined me.
"About an hour. My water's broke about 50 minutes ago." I told him.
"Well, you are at 10 cm, so on the next contraction I want you to push and hopefully, we can get the baby's head out." Carlisle said.
Just as I was about to push, the door opened and Rosalie walked in with a arm full of towels.
"Esme sent these up." Rosalie said as she went to leave the room.
"Rosalie, do you mind staying. I'm going to need to hand the baby to someone when she arrives." Carlisle asked.
I didn't pay much attention to what else happened after he asked that because I had to push. Before I had children, I never understood why some women were so desperate to have children, even when they know the pain and the agony that they will have to go though to get the baby here. This isn't called labour for nothing.
I don't know how long I pushed for, I totally lost all concept of time and what was happening around me. The only thing that brought me out of my pain induced haze was the sound of a baby crying. My baby. Finally she was here. I fell back against the bed, thanking god that I didn't have to do that again.
"Ok, do you want the good news of the really good news?" Carlisle asked me.
"As long as they are both good news, I really don't care what you tell me first." I panted.
"Well, the really good news, is that you have a very loud and very healthy baby girl. The good news is that…" Carlisle's voice got cut off as another pain hit me harder than anything that I had felt today. I breathed through the pain and held onto Jaspers hand.
"What's going on?" I asked.
"You have another baby in there." Carlisle said.
"That impossible. I think I would have known if I had 2 babies inside me." I shouted. When I raised my voice, by little girl cried harder and louder. I decided that this wasn't the best time to be shouting like a banshee.
"You can deny this all you like Bella. But the fact of the matter is that you are having twins, and baby number 2 wants out. So get ready." Carlisle said.
I noted, that Jasper hadn't said anything since Carlisle has told us this news. I looked over at my husband who was staring into space in shock. I didn't have time to deal with Jasper now, I had to have a baby. Again!
The contractions for this baby were worse that with the first one, and it felt like I was pushing forever before anything happened.
After what felt like hours of pushing and nearly ripping body parts off my husband I felt the baby come out.
By this point I was exhausted, so I clasped back on the bed. I could hear people moving around me, and making sure the babies were ok.
"It's a boy." I heard Carlisle tell Jasper.
I felt Jasper lean over and kiss me. I wanted to kiss him back, I did, but I was just to tired. I tried to open my eyes so that I could see my children, but it was impossible. I felt the exhaustion take over before I slipped into peaceful and restful darkness.
So, what are we thinking? i needed something that would shock you in this story and here it is. Bella now has 2 children. Now, this is where my ability to write creatively comes to a end. I want these children to have powers, but i dont know what to give them, i have a few ideas flying around in my head but i really need your help with this so please PM me, or leave a review with what powers you would like to see and i will pick one and write it in. So, the next chapter wont be able to go up until you let me know what you want.
I hope to hear from you soon :)
