Chapter Seven

"I love the mall more than my own home." I said as I breathed in the scent of new stuff I was going to buy. Leather boots, shoes, and designer clothing doesn't get better than that.

"True That" Alice adds. " I haven't been to the mall in a while and when I've gone I haven't spent more than $600 dollars."

"That's so sad." I put a look of pity on my face. "I spend that twice much almost every other day or so."

"Tell me how do you live in the same house as Bella and still love to shop? You can't tell me she hasn't frowned upon you shopping every other day." Rose asked looking nervous about speaking about my mom.

"I know my mom used to be a no shopping kind of....." I stopped mid sentance realizing my mistake. " Shit"

"Your mom?!?!?!" Alica and Rose both screamed at the same time.

"We need to talk" Alice grabbed my wrist and pulled me toward the bathroom. I then started crying. I knew I couldn't do this. I knew I couldn't keep this secret from them. Rose lifted me up on the counter and put her arm around me.

"Are you Bella's actual daughter?" she asked sweetly trying to comfort me.

All I could do was nodd.

"Whose your dad?" Alice asked. THat only mad me cry harder.

"Alice, it's not hard to guess look at her" Rose whispered.

"Oh my God, I have a neice!" Alice screamed.

"YOu can't tell anyone and I mean anyone! Please don't!" I screamed throwing my arms around her.

"I'll try it will be almost impossible Edward being a mind reader and all" Alice confessed.

Just then my phone rang.

"Mom?" I asked.

"Hey, baby! I just saw what happened."

"Mom, I am sorry...." I started.

"Honey shush it's ok. Have ALice and Rose for the next couple nights. I'll try to explain to Edward in a few days. It's SPring break so you won't have school. I will be home late I am running into Forks for something and Baby be strong for me."

"Bye mom I love you" I said feeling slightly better.

"Would you object to spending the next couple days at our house." I asked.

"Let's do it" Alice and Rose said at the same time.

"It will only be you, my sister, my brother, and my mom. Thay rest left for Afica for Spring Break."

"There are three of you?" Rose asked in disbelief.

"Yup" I said now excited for the adventure ahead of us.

"Can we go now" I asked.

"and pass up a shopping oppertunity. I think not." Alice said.

BEllA POV After hanging up with Elizabeth.

I can't believe I'm doing this. This is breaking the treaty but I don't think I care. I need to talk to a friend. The one who was there for me. Jacob. I knocked on the door. I sweet looking woman in her late 30s open the door. She smiled at me.

"You must be Bella" she said.

"How did you know?" I asked.

"Billy has a picture of you and Jake by Jake's truck in his living room" she laughed. "Jamie, Jake's wife."

"It's a pleasure to meet you." I said meaning every word. I glad Jake found someone. " I don't mean to intrude but is Jake home. I kinda just need bbest friend time with him at the moment."

She understood I just wanted to talk to him. " Yeah, I'm going to the store but Jake's in the last room to the left."

"Thanks" I said as I moved swiftly her.

I entered the room. Jake looked up. I ran into his arms.

"Bella?Umm careful" I looked up at him and then looked down. Nuzzled in his arms was a baby wrapped in a pink blanket.

"Jake" I gasped "She's beautiful"

"Thanks" he said smiling.

"What's her name"

"Zoey"

"Hey Zoey" I cooed. "Can I hold her?"

"Umm well are you..."he looked embarrassed.

"Jake in the twenty years I have been a vampire I have never slipped besides she kinda smells like werewolf."

Jake then cracked a smile. " Ok but it's time for her bottle"

"I can do that too. I had three kids you know."

He flinched.

"Yeah, I guess I forgot. It just seems weird. You look just the same." he said as he handed the baby to me. "Why did you come back to visit Forks?"

"There back. All of them. I don't know what to do or say. I know I can't escape from this. I feel like I am putting to much pressure on the kids to keep my secret. I'm scared. He told me he didn't love me." I whispered.

"Oh" Jake answered.

"I just needed to get away." I was getting very very upset.

"I understand" he said.

It was then I noticed someone standing in the door.

"Daddy you promised to take me to the park." A small girl looked at Jake waiting for an answer. She the turned to you. "Are you an angel?"

Jake and I laughed.

"Sweetheart, this is Bella. Bella this is Gigi."

"The girl from the picture" she asked sweetly.

"I really need to see this picture. Mail it to me with a Christmas card." I laughed. "I'd better get back. Bye for listening and Congratulations......on everything."

I gave him back the baby after I kissed her on the head. I ruffled Gigi's hair and gave Jake I long delayed hug.

"Thanks for coming Bella I missed better keep in touch"

"I will and I'm sorry I hurt you." I said putting my head down.

"That's OK I got my happy ending now go get yours"
