Chapter 11: Baby Stuff

"Alright…" I said, stuffing the hot, syrupy-covered pancakes in my mouth. "If it's a girl, we'll name her-"

"What about Elizabeth Rose?" Jacob asked suddenly.

"Hmm, I like that…"

"Okay, and if it's a boy, then we'll name him … what?"

"Uh… What about … Bill..? Nah, that's … weird."

"Are you crazy? Hello, Bill Kaulitz!"

I gasped melodramatically. "You're right! Oh, why am I so stupid?"

Jake laughed. "I was only joking… But really, I don't want to name our kid Bill."

"Yeah… Okay, so what about … Alex Lovell?"

"Hmm… I really like that, actually. What does Lovell mean, though?"

I grinned. "Little wolf."

He laughed. "It's PERFECT."

I heard running water - I wasn't sure why, because I was just laying on the ground, no water in sight, but it was loud. I stood up to look around me for the source of the noise, but didn't see anything except a long expanse of grass around me and some trees behind. I was alone, or at least I thought I was. Suddenly a huge bear ran up to me, sinking his teeth into my stomach. I screamed in terror and pain at all the wet, sticky blood. And then-

I opened my eyes, disoriented, to find myself still in the hospital bed. Jacob was by my side, looking panicked. I must have screamed out, I thought.

"Are you alright?" he asked, eyes wide. "You were thrashing around and then you screamed. Carlisle came running in and asked what was wrong. I didn't know, so he's getting you some type of medicine right now…"

Just then, Carlisle came in, carrying some type of bottle. "How's she- Oh, she's awake." He dropped the bottle on a counter by the door. "Are you alright, Ness? You were-"

"Thrashing and screaming? Yeah, I heard. But yes, I'm fine. Just a nightmare, that's all…"

Carlisle looked mildly concerned. "You were screaming something about 'all the blood.' "

"I was?" Shock danced across my face. "Well… I was bitten in the dream, see? By a bear. It's weird, I still feel as if the blood was running down my leg…"

"Odd… Very odd…" Carlisle seemed to be deep in thought.

"And I heard what I thought was running water… Before I was bitten, I mean. It was really, very strange…."

"Yes … well, it's all over now."

"Yeah…" I rolled over to face Jake. "Hey, would you get me some pecans?" I batted my eyelashes in an attempt to make him laugh. He did.

"Sure, but why pecans?"

I shrugged. "Pecans sound good right now."

"Alright, craving girl… I'll be right back."

He got out of his seat and walked back to the kitchen. Carlisle sat down in Jake's seat for the meantime with a grave expression.

"Renesmee, did your water break?" he asked quietly. "Because if it-"

"Did what break?" I cried out, shocked. "I-I don't know! How do we find out?" I whispered stupidly. Of course I knew, I was just too shocked at the moment to remember.

"Um, well the easiest way would be for you to look under the covers and feel the bed to see if it's wet or not…"

"Okay…" I did as he asked, noticing that the bed was, indeed, very wet. "It is," I said in a quiet voice, nervous. I was excited as well, though...

He jumped straight up and said, "Jacob! Forget the pecans and get in here!"

He was back in the blink of an eye, Edward and Alice by his side. "What's wrong?" He looked confused and worried.

"Renesmee is in labor…" Alice and Edward said at the same time.

"No… My water just- Ow!" I screamed as I felt a horrible contracting in my stomach.

"My point exactly," Alice said, running back out of the room.

"She's going to get Bella," Edward put in helpfully. "I don't think she can be here for … it."

I felt another clenching in my abdomen, screaming out again. "O-okay."

"Breathe, Ness." Jake sat down beside me again, holding my hand tight.

As another contraction hit me he winced - I had never made him wince - from the pressure of my hand.

Carlisle darted back to me, awkwardly stripping me of my soaking pants and spreading my legs. He glanced at my expression of pain and then stuck a needle with some type of fluid in my arm.
"What's-"

"Pain medication. You're going to need it."

However much this didn't comfort me, the next contraction wasn't as bad, so I quickly forgot my worries.

"Oh, my poor baby!" Bella ran beside me and held onto my other hand, stroking my hair. Edward stood frozen by the door, looking stuck between trying to kill Jacob again and throwing up - not that he could… In the end, he stepped out of the room, looking sick and murderous at the same time.

Edward's POV

That fucking werewolf is going to pay for making my baby girl scream like that, I thought murderously.

I walked out of the room to meet Alice, Jasper, Rosalie, Emmett, and Esme lounging on the furniture beside the door.

"Hey Edward, you're paler than usual!" Emmett said with a booming laugh. Throwing him a death glare, I sat down beside Esme.

"Edward, would you calm down? You're making me furious," Jasper stated, sending me some calming. It worked slightly.

I let out a deep breath. "Thanks Jazz."

"No problem. What were you so mad about anyway?"

"Not about. Who. Jacob," I added at his confused look.

"Oh…" It was then that Nessie let out another scream of pain.

I clenched my fists and Esme rubbed my back sympathetically. "She'll be alright, Edward. Bella was fine. At least Renesmee isn't completely human."

"I don't like him being in there with her," I said through my teeth.

"Yes Edward, but Jacob is Renesmee's boyfriend, the father of her child, most likely going to be her husband at some point. It's better for him to be there…"

"Actually, he was going to propose tonight, but he forgot about that plan when Ness went into labor," Alice told us calmly. Suddenly she blanked, going into a vision that I knew I would see in my mind as well.

Ness screamed again, squeezing Jacob's hand hard enough to make it go white.

"And … the baby is here!" Carlisle announced, quickly getting to work cleaning off the baby and cutting the umbilical cord.

"Oh, thank you … it's over," Renesmee panted, her hair plastered to her face with sweat.

Jacob looked relieved, his hand slowly returning to it's normal color. He then looked extremely happy, trying to see over Carlisle's shoulder at the baby.

Bella was hugging Renesmee to her chest, saying over and over, "Oh, Nessie, it's okay, it's okay."

And then the vision ended.

"It'll be soon," Alice confirmed.

What seemed to be hours later, the same scream of pain that I had heard came through the door.

Anxiously, I crossed and uncrossed my legs. Then…

"And … the baby is here!" Carlisle said again.

A few minutes later, Bella walked out. "It's over," she smiled.

"Thank God," Esme said, getting up.

Bella rushed over and put Esme back in her seat. "There's lots of blood, you might want to wait while Carlisle and I clean everything up." And then she bounced back into the room.

"Okay, then…" Esme said, a little hurt.

Jacob's POV

Finally, it was over. My hand felt like it was about to fall off, but I barely noticed it, too happy to think of much more than the excitement of my new baby. Renesmee whimpered in pain.

"Are you okay, babe?" I asked, instantly regretting my words. I mean, of course she wasn't okay! She just had a baby!

"Uh… Yeah, I guess," she answered weakly. I stroked her hair gently.

Carlisle turned around and passed the baby, wrapped in a blanket, to Nessie. He smiled, grabbed Bella's arm, and walked out of the room.

"Boy or girl?" I asked.

She peered under the blanket for a moment and then smiled up at me. "That's Daddy, Alex," she cooed, pointing to me.

I broke out into a big grin and kissed her quickly. Then I felt a bit awkward, unsure of what to do next. I was saved by a knock on the door.

"Come in," said Nessie, a little quietly.

"Hi, Nessie!" squealed Alice. "Girl or boy?"

"You don't know?" I asked.

"No, Bella shielded you when she came out." She frowned at Bella, a disapproving look.

"Well, it's a boy," I grinned.

"And have you decided on a name?"

"Alex Lovell Black," Nessie said, surprising me.

I turned back to her. "Not Cullen?"

She blushed. "Well… I mean … if you don't want him to-"

"No!" I said quickly. "I mean, of course I want him to be a Black - if that's okay with you that is…"

"What's Lovell mean?" Bella piped up.

"Little wolf," Edward supplied for her.

"Ahh… Okay."

"He's very cute," Esme smiled, leaning over Nessie's shoulder to peer at Alex. He had black hair, shockingly bright blue eyes, and was just simply smiling up at Ness. He was the cutest thing I'd ever seen.

"Cuter than Ness?" Edward laughed.

I blushed slightly, but ignored him.

"Now he's a bit smaller than what's normal, but he seems to be fine," Carlisle told us. "We should watch him carefully to find out how fast he's going to grow, however… Considering that he was only in the womb for between…" He paused with raised eyebrows.

"Um… Between two and a half weeks and … six days, I think?" Renesmee said sheepishly.

"Renesmee!" Rosalie exclaimed, shocked.

"Well… We couldn't help it!"

"Oh, shut up. It's not like he wasn't going to-" Alice cut herself off abruptly. "Never mind."

"What? Who's going to do what?"

"Nothing!" I said quickly. Alice shot me a glare. "Oh fine!" Fidgeting nervously in my chair, I got down on one knee. Edward whispered something to Emmett and he came back within two seconds with a small box that he handed to me. I opened it and said, "Renesmee Carlie Cullen, will you marry me?"

She gasped, grasping Alex tightly, and said, "I-I yes! Yes, of course I will!"

I didn't know what to say, so I just grinned.

EAN: Shit, is that really where I left you guys hanging? I have SO much more to write. Be prepared - it's about to come full-force!
