A New World

Chapter 17

Jake's P.O.V:

I watched as Jemma, Leah and Rach walked into the barn, I could tell something was up but didn't make a big deal out of it.

The meeting had gone pretty smoothly, Seth was pleased that the elders decided he needed to see Renesmee, but only a few times a week. He would also need someone to go with him, so he wasn't alone. I knew that wasn't necessary but if it made everyone else happy, then I didn't object. It was Leah and Sue who were pretty upset, they would need loads of convincing.

I excused myself from talking with Charlie and Len, when I spotted Jemma placing cups on the tables, I snuck up behind her and couldn't keep the grin off my face. Last night had been amazing, I hadn't been able to stop thinking about it all day.

"Hey…" I whispered in Jemma's ear while I wrapped my hand around her waist pulling her back into me.

"Hey yourself."

Jemma put her hand over mine and turned her face to kiss my cheek. She smelt great like flowers and soap and…PAUL?

"Paul. You smell like Paul! What the hell Jemma? Where is he?"

Jemma turned and looked at me, her mouth formed a thin line and she crossed her arms across her chest.

"What is it with you and Rachel Jake? He was upset so I hugged him! That is it, cant I be his friend when he needs one?"

I sighed and rubbed my hand through my hair, I over reacted maybe just a little, but she was mine. I hated smelling someone else's scent on her and so did the wolf, he wanted to find Paul and kill him.

"I am sorry Jem…"

I reached for Jemma's hand and she moved back a little.

"Aw Jem, I said I was sorry…don't make me kidnap you and MAKE you forgive me."

I tried not to laugh as the sides of her mouth curled up slightly. She dropped her hands to her sides, then stepped forward and pushed me lightly on the shoulder.

"Don't be like that again Jake, I will never cheat on you…I like having guy friends too and Paul is a nice guy…even if you don't think so."

I groaned and nodded, pulling her to me.

"Okay, okay and here I was hoping you would be stubborn, so I could kidnap you."

Jemma giggled and ran her hand up my chest, and looked past me to see what everyone else was doing. The barn was packed and everyone was having a great time, they wouldn't notice if we disappeared for a while. I had noticed briefly before that Bryce and Leah were missing again…

"Maybe you can still kidnap me?" Jemma smiled seductively up at me pulling me from my thoughts, she batted her lashes at me and I couldn't help the butterflies in my stomach. Only she could give them to me.

I grabbed her hand and pulled her to the side entrance of the barn, the rabbit was parked near it.

'Yes! Back seat make out.'

Jemma giggled as I practically chucked her in the car and ran around to get into the drivers seat. I drove at a decent pace not wanting to have an accident on the ice-covered road.

I drove down a deserted, dirt road and before I could even turn off the ignition Jemma was on top of me. I moaned as I tried to find the lever to move my seat back. Jemma had claimed my lips and was madly running her hands underneath my jacket and shirt. I finally grabbed the lever and Jemma gave a squeal as the seat burst backwards, it even shocked me. We both began laughing but it didn't take long before I pulled my girl to me again.

I kissed her neck slowly and sucked on her ear lobe, the moan that escaped Jem's lips made my dick twitch. I made my way painfully slow to her mouth and she eagerly met my lips with hers. Jemma tugged at my jacket and I helped her take it off and then Jemma was lifting my shirt off as well.

"Aren't I meant to be taking your clothes off?"

Jemma laughed and sat back, taking me in with her eyes, she bent down and kissed my chest softly before sitting back up and taking off her jacket and lifting her shirt over her head. I gasped at her lacey black bra, I reached for her tits and traced over her nipples with my thumbs. I reached behind her and unhooked her bra and moaned as I took one of her nipples into my mouth. I sucked eagerly, loving the moans that were coming from her. Jemma was struggling to get my pants undone, I released her tit and lifted my head to try and help her, when I heard it.

"Paul, I just need to think about this, I have always liked you, a little, but you never paid any attention to me! And now you want to be with me because of this imprint?"

I lifted my head closer to the window, they were far away, Jemma couldn't hear them arguing. I couldn't make out the chicks voice. I wound down the window to get a better listen.

"What are you doing?" Jemma asked covering herself. I put my finger to my mouth and made a quite shoosh noise.

"Rach please, just give me a shot I wont let you down EVER I promise."

Rach? As in Rachel, my sister? No way? First Jemma, now Rachel does this guy have no sense? I gently pushed Jemma off me, she was getting angry but I couldn't stop myself. I should have though, I shouldn't have got out of that car but I couldn't help myself.

"I will be back in a minute Jemma."

I ignored her shouts from the car as I ran into the woods.

Jemma's P.O.V:

"Jacob? What's wrong…Jake?" I yelled into the forest after him.

'Shit.'

I quickly threw my bra, shirt and jacket back on. Fuck, I hope it's not a vampire. That's when I heard it…It sounded like a dogfight. I stifled a scream and quickly shut the car door and locked it. I sat there for a few seconds, even with the doors locked, that's no match for a vampire. I wound down the window a little trying to listen to what direction the fighting was coming from, I shivered when a loud yelp filled the night air.

"Jake?" I screamed.

I opened the car door and started running towards the sounds of vicious growling and barking but stopped dead in my tracks when I heard a voice calling me. I turned and gasped in fright, there standing in front of the rabbit was Bella Cullen. She was stunningly beautiful with the headlights of the car shining on her white skin, which blended perfectly with the fallen snow.

"Jemma...Jemma. Jacob never understood why I wanted to be turned, but now he might…I was once naïve like you, thinking I could make a difference. But as a human you just cannot, you are weak and insignificant. You will not ever make him happy, you couldn't possibly when he has to be gentle with you and cannot be his true self."

"True self, ah and what? He can be his true self around you right?"

I was furious, vampire or not she was just a jealous schoolgirl.

"Yes as a matter of a fact he can, if you, I don't know…disappeared well then he probably would come back to me. And besides Jemma you cannot keep his concentration for more than 5 minutes, if you know what I mean.'

'This bitch!'

If Bella had of been human, I would have decked her arse by now but my stomach told me that would be an extremely bad idea. The sounds of the wolves fighting had calmed down and suddenly a loud howl filled the night air, I got tingles up and down my spine.

I looked at Bella who crouched down and bared her teeth at me. I did the only thing I could think of. I ran…fast, past Bella down the dirt road. I knew I was no match for Bella's speed but maybe I could give myself enough time to let the wolves get to me.

'If I live, I will go to church after this.'

This was just not normal Saturday night activity.

I couldn't see the rabbit behind me anymore and I could not see in front of me, it was pitch black but I kept running. I turned to look behind me and didn't notice I had hit the main road, until I heard a beeping horn and saw the blinding lights. I pulled myself to a stop and scrunched my eyes shut, bracing for the impact.

It didn't come though, I opened my eyes as I heard the car screech around me and skid to a stop.

'Sam…that's Sam's car.'

"SAM! Sam, help me…Please help me!"

I ran to the car but in the drivers seat wasn't Sam, it was Emily.

"Oh my god Emily? Are you okay?"

Emily was sitting with one hand on the steering wheel and another on her belly. She was breathing in deeply then she looked at me.

"Jemma are you okay? What are you doing? I could have squashed you!"

I opened the door and looked her over, before looking behind me.

"Em we have to get the fuck out of here, Bella Cullen just tried to attack me. Lets go!"

I started to close the door, when Emily let out a groan.

"Jemma, you have to drive." Emily shrieked.

"Oh my god is it the baby?"

"YES…he is early!" Emily cried out.

I tried not to be hysterical as I ripped Emily's seat belt off and dragged her out of the SUV. I half pulled and carried her to the passenger seat. I helped her in and put the seat belt on.

I ran back to the driver's side and hopped in and did a u turn.

"Where are you going?"

"To Forks Emily, the hospital."

"No…No, we have to find Sam, that's what I was doing, I was looking for Sam." Emily cried begging me to turn around. I was thinking about it, until Emily let out another cry and made a startled noise as she looked down at her lap, it was filled with water.

"Fuck!" we both cried at the same time. I found it amusing Emily swore, she never swore!

I tried to pull my phone out of my jacket pocket and turned the car light on so I could see better, I finally fished it out when I looked at Emily, who made a funny noise. Her hands were partially covered in blood.

"Oh God, Oh God Please, please." Emily sobbed.

I was hysterical on the inside, but I was surprised at how calm my voice was.

"Its okay Emily, its okay. I am ringing the hospital okay, the baby will be fine, he is a fighter like his mum."

"I am not a fighter, he can't be like me." Emily cried.

"Yes you are! Now try to calm down, stress will not be good for the bub right now. Just breath."

I started taking big breaths in and out and motioned for her to follow along with me. I don't know whom it calmed more, her or me. Once Emily had stopped crying so much, I called the hospital. Luckily I had their number in my phone from mum.

After I called the hospital I called Jake and Sam, neither answered so I called Leah who also didn't answer!

'FUCK! Pick up your phones.'

I called my mum lastly and told her Emily had gone into labor and was bleeding. I was on my to the hospital and to get one of the boys to find Sam.

I put my foot down and sped the rest of the way to the hospital. I pulled up right at the emergency department on the grass, not really caring if Charlie gave me a ticket. Dr Cullen and 3 nurses were already running to us. Under normal circumstances, I would of told Cullen to get fucked but right now I just wanted to scream at him 'I know you can run faster than that.'

I was holding Emily's blood soaked hands and hugging her for dear life while they examined her, I whispered promises of a beautiful baby to her hoping to calm her. She had gone deathly pale and weak, I couldn't help the tears that sprung to my eyes as Dr Cullen told Emily she needed to get to theatre straight away for an emergency c-section. He thought her placenta was abrupting and they did not have time to wait for Sam.

"Please come with me Jemma, please."

"Jemma cant Emily, you need to be put to sleep for this. I am sorry." Dr Cullen said as he prepped Emily.

"You will be just fine Emily, don't be scared Dr Cullen will look after you…wont you?"

"Of course."

I sobbed as they starting wheeling Emily off.

"EMILY!"

Sam skidded around the corner and ran to Emily I started crying harder, so pleased he made it to see her. He ran to her and kissed her face over and over telling her it will be okay.

"Sam, Emily and the baby wont make it if we don't go now, please let us go and I will be out soon to talk with you."

Cullen pushed Sam away and they disappeared through the surgery doors. Sam dropped to his knees, he was silent and I ran to him putting my hand on his shoulder. He sniffed and stood up knocking me back a little.

"Emily's blood? What the hell happened Jemma."?

He pushed me against the wall and had his finger in my face.

"Sam, Emily was driving looking for you… and she found me and she started bleeding when her water broke and her placenta had abrupted and she needs a c -section so her and the baby will be okay. I tried my best Sam, I really did, I got her here as fast as I could. Please I am sorry."

It all came out as a jumbled mess. I started sobbing covering my face with my blood stained hands, Sam stood back and punched the wall beside me, I let out a loud sob and took off running. I didn't get far though when I hit a brick wall. I opened my eyes and looked up, it was Jake.

"Jacob… I...I Oh God." I sobbed as he held me up and pulled me to a chair. He kneeled in between my legs holding me as I sobbed. I had never been so frightened in my whole life. I knew Sam wasn't mad at me, hell I would have done the same as him now. It just was not what I needed after tonight. I had not thought anything could frighten me after my run in with Renesmee, but now I knew that there were still far more important things on this Earth, like living and friends.

It was half an hour before Dr Cullen came out of theatre. He went straight to Sam, he spoke to him briefly and Sam covered his face with his hands and Cullen led him into the theatre.

"Oh Jesus, do you think she is okay?" I asked Jacob, standing up. Fresh tears welled in my eyes again. I paced about for 15 minutes and nearly fainted when I saw Sam walking towards me with a little bundle in his arms.

"Jemma and Jake, meet Nathaniel Uley. Nath meet your Uncle Jake and Aunty Jem."

Sam tilted Nathaniel so I could get a better look and my heart swelled, he was beautiful, a little red and puffy but he had this mop of thick, dark hair that was just adorable. Sam passed him to me and I looked at him putting a hand on my chest as if to ask if he was sure, he just nodded and passed him into my arms, ever so carefully.

"He is perfect Sam, congrats. How is Emily?" I asked.

"She is doing okay she just woke up, they are taking her to her room, she wanted me to bring Nath to meet you guys, she cannot have visitors until tomorrow…And even though he is a bit early, Nathaniel is healthy and strong. Jem I am really sorry about before I…"

"Don't you dare apologise Sam, I would have reacted the same."

"I owe you their lives Jemma, she would have been driving around looking for me and it would have been too late. Thank you."

Sam pulled me into a gentle hug, careful not to squash his precious bundle between us. I silently thanked Bella Cullen, if she hadn't of tried to attack me, well then… Emily wouldn't be here.

I kissed Nathaniel on the head before passing him back to Sam, who immediately handed him to Jacob.

"Oh I cant…" Jake gushed but Sam wouldn't hear it.

"He is incredible man, you guys did a good job."

Jacob looked great with a baby, I felt clucky all at once. But I quickly squashed that feeling. I did not want to be a teen mum.

Once Jacob had held the new bub for a few minutes, Sam took him back and hurried off to Emily, so Nathaniel could have his first feed.

I felt honored to be one of the first to meet the precious little man and words could not describe the relief I felt that he and Em were okay.

Jacob held my hand as we walked out of the hospital, I was exhausted and did not feel like talking, I don't think I could of held a decent conversation, even if I had wanted to, my brain was mush.

"Yours or mine Jem?"

"Mine please."

I fell asleep in the rabbit on the way home, I hazily listened as Jake called Jared and told him both mum and baby were well. He also told him I seemed okay too.

'Was I okay?'

I didn't even realize we had pulled up until Jacob opened the car door and the freezing air hit me face, I groaned and blinked my eyes open. Jacob reached for my hand and he held me close as we made our way to the house. No one was home yet, it must be a hell of a Christmas party going on at the Clearwater's.

"Can I stay?" Jacob asked shyly.

I was too tired to deny him tonight and to be honest to scared to be alone in this house. I really missed home right about now.

I nodded and dragged myself up the stairs, I walked straight to the main bathroom and stripped off, not bothering to close the door or care if Jacob saw me.

I stood under the steaming hot water with my eyes closed, the feeling of the water running over my face and down my body calmed my mind. I heard the shower door open and Jake stepped in behind me, I could tell from his demeanor that he didn't want to try anything on me.

He grabbed the soap from it's holder and lathered it in his hands and began washing my back carefully, he moved down to my legs and washed my front while he still stood behind me. I watched fascinated as he grabbed my shampoo and began washing my hair, it was not sexual, but I had never felt more exposed to anybody. He was taking care of me, washing the events of today away. I still had not looked at his face, after he conditioned my hair I turned to face him, I watched as he washed himself. I gasped at the fresh cuts and scratches on his chest, some were very deep, I couldn't believe they were not bleeding.

"I am okay Jemma, I will be all healed by tomorrow."

"What happened?" I whispered.

"Don't worry about that Jem, I am sorry I left you in the car, I should never have left you. I am a fucking idiot, an arrogant idiot. Something really fucking bad could have happened to you, nothing will happen to you Jem, I promise."

It sounded to me like Jake was promising himself more than me, I sighed and leaned my forehead on his chest. He placed his hand around my shoulders, we stood like that until the hot water ran out.

We got out of the shower and got changed and ready for bed. Jake was already in sweats when he got to the hospital, he slipped them back on and slid into bed waiting for me as I chucked my pjs on. I laid down beside him snuggling into a spooning position. I closed my eyes and let myself revel in Jakes warmth, we didn't talk anymore, the silence was enough. I closed my eyes and fell asleep eventually, only waking to hear mum and dad laughing drunkenly downstairs when they got home. I smiled some things do stay the same.

Jake's P.O.V:

I lay awake holding Jem until well after her mum and dad got home and Bryce had snuck in. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't believe what an asshole I had been tonight. I should never have gone after Paul, I would like to say it was my inner animal and all that, but really it had been me. I had been so angry that Paul had gone to Jemma and then imprinted on Rachel.

"Paul!" I ran towards him, he had Rachel's arm in his hand and she was crying.

"Jacob, stay out of this." Paul yelled at me.

"Jake, its okay this is between me and Paul." Rach yelled at me.

I couldn't though, I was so mad that I started running towards Paul, he pushed Rachel out of the way as I phased and landed on top of him, snapping and growling right in his face. He punched me with his bare hand and rolled from underneath me, giving him enough time to phase and come at me.

He showed me the events of the evening in his head as we fought, it was pretty brutal, dirty fighting but I didn't give a fuck what he showed me, I just kept at him.

It wasn't until Sam came pounding behind me and grabbed my hind leg between his jaws to pull me away that I saw sense, I howled in pain. Paul took the opportunity to get a few shots in, but Seth, Quil and Embry stepped in and everything started to calm down.

"What the fuck Jake, you of all people know what its like! IT. IS. NOT. A. CHOICE!" Sam's voice boomed in my mind.

It was then I smelt Bella, I howled into the night air and took off back towards Jemma and the Rabbit. When I got there Bella was nowhere to be found and neither was Jemma.

"Oh God." I cried as I circled the car once and took off in the direction of her scent, Paul was already ahead of me and he veered off into the forest after Bella's scent. I had kept on straight towards the road, I saw the SUV speeding off in the distance, I wasn't a hundred percent sure if it was Emily and I was about to run after it when Paul howled. He had Bella, Jemma was okay.

When I got to him he was on the treaty line and Edward, Emmett and Rosalie were standing there talking to him. Paul was in human form and naked as the day he had been born. I ran up to Edward and knocked him to the ground, surprisingly no one moved to stop me.

"Jacob, this is all my fault, I am going to be taking Bella away for a little while so she can recover. She is not herself, you know this. Please let me try and fix her and if she wont comply…we will deal with her. We just ask that Renesmee can stay here with Rosalie and the others, it is not a good time for her to be around Bella."

His voice was breaking and I think if he could have cried, he would have. I stepped off him and nodded my head. I didn't want to kill Bella and she had not broken the treaty but she did need to leave Forks NOW.

"We will leave right away Jacob, you have my word friend."

I didn't give a shit though; I just took off running to find Jemma.

I was running along the road searching for the SUV's scent, when Jared's voice appeared in my head.

"Jacob! Jemma is with Emily, Em has gone into labor and Sam need to haul ass and get to the hospital!"

I heard Sam howl into the night air and we ran towards the hospital, Seth was waiting for us on the outskirts of Forks with the Rabbit we quickly changed and I drove like a madman to the hospital. I took in the SUV parked all crazy on the grass and quickly ran to it after I parked my car, the keys were still in the ignition and the doors were open.

I flinched; all I could smell was Emily's blood. I silently prayed she and the baby were okay. I parked the SUV in the emergency car park and ran to find Jemma. I heard Sam yelling at her and ran faster, he didn't know what he was saying. Jem ran straight into me as I rounded the corner. I had wanted to carry her away from this, I wanted to take her back to Australia and make her a beautiful, warm, safe life. But it's just not possible, why would she want to be with me.

Seeing Jemma hold Nath and me nursing him for that few minutes must of head an effect on me. Because when I dreamt that night, I dreamt of a little black haired toddler. He came and crawled into bed between me and Jemma and Jem put an arm under him and brought him in for a hug, sleepily kissing his forehead. She whispered that she loved us before she drifted off to sleep. It made my heart melt and the wolf went a little nuts, he wanted me to get Jemma pregnant asap.

I had things to do first though, I needed to be able to support my future family. Tomorrow I am going to see about a job but first I had a few things to fix with Rach and Paul...

AN- Hope you guys enjoyed... review pretty please, let me know I am on the right track xo
