Authors Notes: Sorry for taking so long guys. I was a little stumped on how to write the few chapters. Sorry.
Thanks for all the amazing advice on what I should do. I haven't decided yet, but I promise I will finish it.

Chapter 19 – Push
My one month pregnancy passed quickly after our encounter with Victoria. Everyone doted on me and wouldn't let me even lift a finger. I started growing bigger, much to Emmett's amusement. I think he was personally getting back at me for all those times I beat him. Full moon came and passed and soon I was dropping out of school with a "deadly disease". Edward never left my side, as we were all worried that Victoria would come back.
The pack didn't say much about my unexpected pregnancy, though they all assured us that they wanted to personally find Victoria and rip her to shreds. We rarely saw Jacob anymore, while Embry, Quil and Seth showing up were common occurrences. They too, were ecstatic for Edward and me.
Charlie and Renee were the same. Of course they did not know the real reason why I suddenly became big, but Carlisle fed them a lie about an "unusual" pregnancy. Esme, Renee, Alice and Rosalie were often found planning and decorating the nursery, while the men and Sasha, were found in front of the television, cheering on their favourite teams. I wasn't allowed to move an inch from my place in the chair as I watched them complete the nursery.
Edward and I contemplated often on what we were to call our child. I was sure it was to be a boy, green eyed and bronze haired like Edward, but he wasn't sold. Edward was what I wished to call him, after his father, but his father just rolled his eyes.
When mum asked me what I was going to call the baby if it was to be a girl, I was stumped until it came to me late one night.
"Renesme!" I exclaimed, sitting bolt upright in bed. Edward stared at me blankly.
"If it's a girl – Renesme Carlie, after our parents," I explained. The only response I got was a passionate kiss on the lips -as well as all that followed afterwards. It was only a few days later that Edward claimed to know the baby's thoughts, but the gender was still unknown.
It early December when I woke in the middle of the night to a sharp pain in my abdonmen.
"What is it love?" Edward was asking me in a heartbeat.
"The- the baby. It's coming."
As soon as I said this, seven vampires, one werewolf and a shape shifter (Quil stayed the night) were beside my bed.
"Okay Bella, what are you feeling?"
"Uh, a bit of pain, here," I gestured.
"Carlisle, a werewolf birth is much like a human's, except I think the baby will be in a hard embryonic sack, like your skin. Perhaps if we try the normal method first?" Sasha had also taken a degree in medicine, so she was to assist Carlisle in the birth. He nodded his agreement.
Quickly, all were ushered out of the room, except for Carlisle, Edward, Sasha and me, as Carlisle began to set up equipment.
In position, I was instructed to push along with the contractions.
"PUSH!" Carlisle yelled.
"ARRRRGHHH!' I screamed, while I clenched Edward's hand between my own. He winced in time with my contractions.
"The baby's out! The baby's out!" as soon as I heard those words I relaxed, breathing heavily and sharing beaming smiles with Edward. Swiftly, Edward ducked over to Carlisle to cut the embryonic sack from around the baby.
"It's a girl," Edward whispered in awe to me. "Strange, she does not cry, yet she seems healthy as well as, well, intelligent."
I held my arms out and accepted the little bundle of life. Staring into big chocolate eyes, I felt myself falling in love with her.
"Hello Renesme Carlie Cullen," I breathed and placed a kiss on the top of her head.
