Let's mix it up a little. SETH'S POV!

Chapter 14

Quil, Embry, and myself walked out the door to my house. I shook my head in disbelief. I still couldn't fathom that Jake was a dad. Of twins! It seems just like yesterday that we were all together in our own little pack doing our thing. Ever since his and Renesmee's wedding and the whole pregnant-with-twins-thing, he seemed sort of left out of the loop. We hadn't been able to get together in forever. This was the first time in like six months we actually hung out. Well, this really wasn't hanging-out. It was more like seeing Jake and Renesmee change diapers, feed babies, burp them, and soothe them as they cried. Not to mention Jake and Nessie falling all over each other like the lovers they were. Yuck. It made me sick. I never really had the desire to fall in love.

We reached the edge of the woods and phased. We would probably cut travel time if we ran in wolf-form instead of traveling by car. We started running and I fell to the back of the group. I ran slower than everyone else because of the lack of excitement for this waste of a Saturday. I mean, I love Jake and Nessie and hanging out with them, but things have changed now. They're husband and wife. They're parents.

We reached the edge of the forest that stood parallel to the Cullen house. We phased, still out of sight, and proceeded to walk across the front lawn. I gazed at the huge white house. It looked so out of place in this small town of Forks. Quil rang the doorbell, and a split second later, Bella answered the door. She was smiling as if she were anticipating our arrival.

"Hey guys!" She hugged each of us. "Come on in. Jake and Renesmee are in the living room with the rest of the family. I'm not sure, but the babies might be asleep, so try to keep it quiet."

We stepped through the doorway into the mansion-like house. I could vaguely hear the large family softly talking and laughing. I could also hear the faint gurgles and whines of infants. Bella led the way through corridors and rooms until we reached their gathering spot.

I saw Edward reunite with Bella, Jasper and a pain-stricken Alice sitting beside each other on a large couch, Rosalie and Emmett sitting on a sofa holding hands, Carlisle and Esme were standing behind the large couch, and then I saw Jake. He was sitting on the floor, on the left side of a beautiful, pale-faced baby. She had blonde and curly hair. I couldn't see her eye color because she was sound asleep. She reminded me so much of Renesmee. She truly was the most breath-taking baby I had seen.

I took my focus away from the child and looked around the room. We got some smiles and friendly, but quiet welcomes, and we got some unpleasant faces as well. Mainly from Rosalie. Well, only from Rosalie. We smiled and said hello as we began to make a circle around the sleeping infant. Embry and Quil were admiring her and congratulating Jake when I realized that Renesmee wasn't here. And wasn't there another baby? I thought for sure I heard "twins" over the phone when I talked to Edward.

"Guys, this is little Allysen Rose Black," he introduced.

"Jake, she's beautiful. Congratulations, dude. But where's your other one? You did have twins, right? And where's Renesmee?" I asked searching the room.

He laughed quietly. "Yeah, Renesmee took her to change her diaper just as you guys came in. She should be back any second now," he leaned back to look upstairs.

I shrugged and looked back at the sleeping baby. Then I looked at her father. Jake was overflowing with pride and love for his daughter. I'd never seen him like this before. It was really moving to see him experiencing the love for a child. Suddenly I heard Renesmee at the top of the stairs.

She gasped to her daughter and said, "Looky, Rachel! Someone came to see you and your sister!" There was a baby in her arms that was wrapped in a tiny purple blanket. They descended down the stairs, Nessie still cooing to her child. She was just as beautiful as her daughter. She looked overjoyed and radiant. She was bright and bubbly as ever, and she carried herself differently.

I was still sitting in the floor with all the Cullens when Jacob stood up to meet Nessie. He kissed her lightly on the lips and carefully pulled his second daughter into his arms. I still couldn't see her well for that little purple blanket. Jacob turned around and walked towards our circle. He picked his spot and joined us. He slowly took the little blanket off and put the other child next to it's sister. Something was different about this one, though.

She was stunning. More so than her sister. She had deep copper skin like her father and jet black hair. Hey eyes were topaz like Edward's, and she resembled Jake the most. Her eyelashes were long mesmerizing. But her appearance wasn't what threw me off. Just something about this little girl had my focus glued to her. She gazed at me with those big brown eyes for a awhile. I was hypnotized. And I thought that Allysen was breath-taking. I had now changed my mind to stay as long as possible. I didn't want to leave this wonderful creation. Suddenly it hit me.

I had imprinted. On Jake's baby. One of which I didn't even know her name. Great. This certainly made things more complicated. Just as soon as I made my outrageous realization, I felt Jake's hand firmly grab my arm. I fell out of my trance enough to recognize the words "come see the nursery." He practically pulled me up and yanked me along through the hallway to the room.

He slammed the door behind us and stared me down furiously. "What have you done?" he growled.

"I-I-I," I mumbled stupidly. I still was sorting this all out in my head.

"Stop! I know exactly what you've done. You imprinted on Rachel!" he roared towards me.

"So Rachel's her name?" I asked imprudently. He growled ferociously at me.

"Her name is Rachel Marie Black," He hissed through his teeth.

"Jake, please don't be mad! I couldn't help it! I didn't ask to imprint on her! You of all people should understand that!" I retorted. His face gradually softened back to its normal state.

"Seth, I know. I understand, but she is my daughter! She is five days old! I just cant believe her soul mate is chosen for her before she can even talk," he muttered into his hands.

"So are you going to tell Renesmee? And the entire family?" I asked, fear probably visible in my voice.

"I really don't want to," he whined, face still in his hands. "I'll probably just make you do it."

Oh no. I am not telling his entire family that I have chosen his daughter as my soul mate for life. I was pretty sure that wouldn't fly so well. Well, in the matter of ten minutes I had put myself in a life altering predicament that I had no idea how to solve. This could only end badly. I sat in the middle of the pink and purple nursery and put my head into my hands like Jake. Suddenly Jake's head popped up and his face brightened.

"I got it! We wont tell anyone! Nobody can know besides us, even though Edward probably already does. I'll have to pull him aside later and tell him not to tell…" He faded out in his thoughts. I was thrilled with the idea. I would tell them when she was old enough, even thought they would probably get suspicious if I just randomly start hanging out here again. But I didn't care. I was good with any solution at this point. I nodded my head furiously and we stood up for the door.

Right before he turned the handle to go into the hallway he muttered, "Just so we're clear, you tell anyone about what happened today, I'll rip your head off." I knew he probably wasn't kidding on that one, I immediately agreed and followed him out the door.

I put on a fake smile, and so did Jake as we reentered the living room. Everyone turned their heads curiously in our direction. I decided to start the conversation.

"Wow guys, the nursery is adorable," I complimented. Alice rose up and Bella and Rosalie said thank you. I smiled and looked over at the babies. They were wide awake now and playing with Emmett. I sat next to Rachel casually and watched Jake take his seat next to Renesmee. He wrapped his arm around her, still watching me, and she snuggled into his side. She pushed her face into him, turned it back around, and closed her eyes.

I would be cruel ruin her happiness and cause her so much anguish and pain by telling her. But I felt like I was silently lying to her. I shook it off and focused back to the babies. They made odd noises that infants make as Emmett tickled them and played with them. Come to think of it, I had never seen Emmett like this either.

I enjoyed myself watching the little ones almost laugh and play, and then get all sleepy again and crash. They slept more than Jake did. And trust me, that was a lot. I relaxed with my friends and tried to enjoy the only peaceful moment I would get for a while. I had decided that day that I would never leave Rachel. It would be as if I were her big brother up until her maturity age, and then we would be a couple, if she loved me.

I also decided that day that imprinting is a difficult game to win no matter who you were.
