Chapter Eleven
Love Bites Back
The next minutes were a blur in my mind. Carlisle and Esme showed up in a matter of seconds, hearing my screams, Emmett gathered me in his arms and waited for Carlisle's orders, I had remained rigid in my husband's arms as terror was surging through my veins.
'Esme, keep everyone in the living room as long as Rosalie bleeds, Bella talk to Edward and ask him to come and see if he can hear the child. Emmett, take her to my office.' Carlisle said and I still tried to gasp for air as I knew we had to parade through a house full of vampires, that gave me another reason to be scared as my mind was still drown in fear. Carlisle supported my head as Esme and Bella rushed to do what they were asked to.
'Calm down, Rosalie, think of Emmelie, she needs you more than ever.' Carlisle told me as we entered the office and Emmet placed me carefully on the sofa as Carlisle moved in a flash and brought his bag full of medical supplies. Emmett kneeled by the couch and took my face in his hands as to distract me from whatever Carlisle was going to check on me and also help me relax.
'Breathe with me, Rose, come on, relax and breathe with me.' Emmett told me, his face inches from mine, I opened my mouth and tried to mimic him as he inhaled and exhaled slowly, after a few moments I felt myself taking the much needed air, I relaxed and the pain inside me seemed less now that I could breath, my mind was still racing in the thought of Carlisle saying that we should go to the hospital or something similar but I tried to focus on Emmett's breathing as to keep up with mine. Minutes passed in silence and I wanted to know what Carlisle saw, I wanted to know if Emmelie was fine. The door opened and Bella, Edward and Esme entered the office, Edward moved close to me and tried to focus. I felt my heart racing at the news he would break to us soon.
'Calm down, Rose,' Esme whispered as they probably could feel my heartbeat increasing but I ignored my mother as Emmett, mine and Carlisle's eyes were glued on Edward. He opened his eyes and looked at me and Emmett.
'She's fine, she just got scared when she heard your screaming from the inside but she's fine otherwise, I think she's just tired and uncomfortable in there, she's quiet big to be in the womb.' Edward said and I covered my face with one of my hands, the other hugging Emmett close to me.
I started laughing in relief, laughing a lot till I couldn't breathe once more so I tried to relax, still lost in relief, the rest were also smiling when I composed myself and brushed new tears off my face, both with my hands and Emmett's lips as he was kissing me happily.
'Ok, the baby is apparently fine, but we don't want her to be born early, she needs to develop as much as possible, so I want you Rose in bed for the rest of your pregnant days.' Carlisle said as he gathered everything in his bag and Esme helped me with my dress as I tried to sit up carefully. I was ready to complain about staying in a bed for a month or so but thought better of it, I had been alive for decades with no hope for a child, a month of being pinned on a bed was nothing compared on what I'd have after it.
'Finally you're thinking rationally.' Edward murmured and I just nodded my head as this time, he was right.
The Denalis decided to leave after two days, not wanting to cause more "noise" around my fragile condition, I hadn't enough of my cousins but the families promised each that they'd be joint again after Caspar and Amelia had left the Olympic mountains. Caspar made sure to remind that as long as he and Amelia would be away from here, they'd be visiting Denali. Eleazar and Carmen simply nodded as probably some rough spots hadn't softened yet.
For the first days of being in bed, I was fine, Emmett was even happier as he was sure that as long as I stood in bed, nothing would happen and everyone was trying to keep me occupied as not to get bored or frustrated. Emmet especially who knew how much I wanted to go shopping with my sisters, have little walks in the yard or even go and see the cars in the garage and stroll around in Emmelie's room.
'I want you to be safe, and not to have mommy too tired, little minx. Did you hear me? It's daddy talking to you.' Emmett was saying to my eight and a half months belly and I laughed as he tickled lightly my belly button. We were in our bed and the afternoon, even gloomy was beautiful and calm. I liked afternoons like this, when all the vampires of the house had left for hunting for awhile and Emmett and I were left behind to our privacy, Nessie was only downstairs with Jacob who returned the day the Denalis left. I was sure Carlisle was making sure someone would stay behind in case of emergency, the last thing he needed was another member of the family to give birth when he was away.
Edward, Jacob and I had made it to help Bella and Nessie but I wasn't sure if things would be the same with me this time. Especially with Bella and Carlisle –the only ones who would be useful when I'd be giving birth- being away. Carlisle had asked Esme to help me during the pregnancy but Bella had asked of Carlisle to be the one helping me in home labor, Esme wasn't sure if she'd made it with my human blood all around nor Alice was and Bella was the one who wanted to help me the most.
'Mommy and daddy love you very much already, little girl, and we can't wait for you to be with us, but you need to stay inside mommy a little longer, that's what grandpa says and we all listen to grandpa.' Emmett kept talking to Emmelie and tickled me once more; making my chuckle, that moment Emmelie kicked on the side of my stomach and her little foot was slightly visible as I laid slightly on my left side. Emmett looked at the little limp through my skin and then grinned and kissed the spot it had moved.
'Our little alien,' he said proudly and I laughed and slapped his head.
'She's not an alien! She's our princess, don't upset me!' I told him as I kept laughing and he grinned, covered my abdomen with the light blanket as to keep me warm even if we had April and moved close to me, kissing all his way up my body.
'No she's not indeed, she's our little, beautiful, strong princess, am I right my queen?' Emmett asked me and I smiled and kissed him as we both placed our hands on my belly. I broke the kiss and looked inside my husband's eyes as he did so and I felt a wave of sadness for a moment, I jeopardized everything with that stupid mood swing, those days ago.
'I should have been more careful, I put her in danger with my stupid thoughts and the breakdown.' I whispered and Emmett shook his head but I kept talking. 'Edward is right, I'm too selfish, I just let myself sink in my stupid thoughts.' I went on and Emmett took his hand from my belly and placed it against my lips.
'You did nothing wrong, Rosie, do you hear me?' Emmett said and I looked at him, wanting to know what he had to say, ever since my breakdown he didn't say a word about it and I was worried I had upset him with my behavior and how it affected my pregnancy. 'You are who you are and I love you, we all do, and if you're selfish or vain as I know you think you are, then good for you.' Emmett said and I tried to speak but his fingers remained on my lips, asking me silently to let him continue.
'Because you've been through a lot and you made it, because of the character you have; you never tasted human blood, you never asked of people to do things that seemed impossible like Bella did with Edward or like Edward did with Carlisle and the rest of us. We all left Forks in a night as to be away from Bells and you were the one who didn't complain because you knew how it is not to have a choice. I remember how you ran in my arms, scared as hell because of your mistake with calling Edward and telling him Bella was dead. I remember your horror and I knew you felt like that because if you were in his shoes, you'd do the same if you knew I had died. This is who you are, Rosalie, I adore you no matter what, life was cruel with you but you looked at it in the eye.' Emmett went on and I felt tears coming in my eyes as I remembered all the pain and guilt I had felt over what happened to our lives.
'And the only thing you ever wanted was to have a child, you deserve happiness and no selfish or vain person would have been through all this for a little child, but you did so, for our little Emmelie.' Emmett said and he finally let his fingers travel to my cheeks and brush my tears, I took a deep breath as I knew I shouldn't upset our daughter further but I couldn't resist and hugged Emmett tightly to my chest.
'I love you, I love you very much.' I said as I took more breaths, calming myself.
'I love you too, Angel but you need to relax because if Carlisle sees you crying he's gonna tear me apart, or Bella could for that matter.' Emmett said and I chuckled and nodded my head as I felt myself relaxing. 'She asked me not to say a word but I can't resist. She asked me to be careful with you…' Emmett told me with a grin on his face, I looked at him confused.
'But you are careful with me, excessively, may I say.' I replied and Emmett's grin widen as he seemed to know I would think of that, I was more confused.
'Once, I told her about how much passionate the two of us are… and I gave her the example of how many cottages the two of us have smashed…' He said and I widened my eyes and slapped his shoulder as to actually hurt him, even if he was bigger than me. He laughed and blew me a kiss. 'So she asked me to be extremely careful now that you're expecting. She was very embarrassed to do so and I was sure if she wasn't a vampire she would have turned red all over. She's very protective of you,' Emmett said and I laughed as I could imagine Bella struggling to get the words out.
'She is,' I agreed and we both laughed with our little sister, now that she was away and she'd never learn about her secret being revealed to me.
The days passed by slowly, seriously slowly and nothing new happened apart from everyone parading through my bedroom, trying to keep me company. I was surprised however when I saw Caspar, Amelia and Carlisle entering the room one afternoon, a few days before April could turn into May.
'Rosalie, Emmett, we need to talk,' Carlisle said calmly and by his face, I decided not to get panicked.
'We're listening,' Emmett said as he was sat by my side on the bed. The three vampires sat around the room as well and I waited for either my father or the couple with the crimson eyes to speak.
'The labor, as you know already, will take place here, at home.' Carlisle started and I nodded my head as I had accepted that a long time ago. 'Bella and I will help you through the labor and of course Emmett can be in here with you, if he wants to, the rest will be waiting downstairs till we're done as they're afraid of losing their grip over the whole thing.' Carlisle went on and both Emmett and I nodded our heads. We had talked about it and Emmett wanted as nothing in the world to be present during the labor, like I did.
'Edward has gotten over the blood thirst ever since we fought with Victoria's army so if you want him to be here right after as to see what Emmelie will be thinking, it's fine, but we won't be able to have Jasper helping you with the pain as he is afraid to be close with the blood around you and the child.' Carlisle went on and I nodded my head again. I knew Jasper would be useful and that he would also be unable to be close so I had befriended the idea of the excruciating pain that waited for me to experience.
'I want Edward around,' I said simply and Carlisle nodded his head, he looked at Caspar; and Emmett and I did the same as we knew it was time for him to speak.
'I will have to be present during the labor, to control your body's status through the pain that it will be put through.' Caspar said and I nodded my head but Emmett was frowned and I knew the reason.
'You'll be able to resist her blood? The rest are vegetarians without the frenzy that accompanies the drinking of human blood, and still they'll stay away out of fear, but you will resist the blood?' Emmett asked the only question that worried me since Caspar had started hinting that we'd have a home labor. Caspar seemed calmed however and spoke.
'When I'm using my powers on certain people, the need for their blood is minimized, if I couldn't resist I would have bitten you the day I changed you, blood had spilled out of your mouths, and even if it was blood of decades frozen inside you, it was blood nonetheless. So I won't be a danger to you or the baby.' He said as he looked at me at his last words and I nodded content, the last thing needed in my already painful labor was to have vampires trying to bite me or my infant daughter, Emmett seemed calmer as well.
'That's good,' he commented and looked at me as I nodded my head.
'So, this is what we wanted to announce to both of you. I will make sure everything necessary for the labor will be at home tomorrow so we can be ready at any minute. I will be hunting close by so if the labor starts someone can page me easily.' Carlisle said and I nodded my head but a question rose in my mind and I looked back at Caspar.
'When you'll leave from Forks, will Emmett and I be like newborns all over again? Strong and hungry for blood?' I asked and I caught Emmett's worried face as I knew he had thought of that as well, having us attacking to our own child was something out of the question. Caspar stood up and moved closer to us.
'No, after your turn, the venom that is already in your bodies will have effect again as my powers will have stopped keeping it inactive. The turn itself will be painful, like the first time, and it'll last about three days.' Caspar said and Amelia moved close to him. 'But after that, you will feel as newborns only for a couple of days, your bodies haven't been in their vampiric status for a very long time and the venom being active after so long will absorb all the human blood of yours in a matter of hours. For that couple of days, it would be good for you to stay away from the child as it could be proven dangerous for you to have her close by. After it, you should go hunting and you'll be back to your normal vampiric status, then it will be up to you not to attack the child for the rest of her human years.' Caspar said and I nodded my head as I felt relieved for not needing months of being away from Emmelie.
'How do you know all these details with the labor and afterwards?' Emmett asked Caspar and he looked at Amelia for a moment as she did with him, their eyes full of sorrow, I gasped silently as I realized how they did know about all this, they had been through it and by their faces, things hadn't turned out well.
'Practice makes perfect,' Caspar only said when he looked back at me and Emmett and we just nodded our heads, understanding what must had happened between the two of them and possibly, one more person, made by the two that didn't survive its own parents.
It was afternoon, the first of May and I was utterly and completely furious with everything and everyone in the house. I had entered my ninth month a couple of days ago and I couldn't stand another hour lying in that bloody bed of mine. I hated it, my back was hurting as Emmelie had became huge within a few days and I wouldn't stand anyone else trying to entertain me when I couldn't even sleep properly because of my huge abdomen and sore back.
My mood swings drove me –and everyone else- mental and it was just a few minutes that I had fought with Emmett. As I remained still on the bed, huffing and snorting I knew I was unfair to him, he had kept himself locked in here since the baby party with me and the only thing I did was to scream at him for the last couple of days. I knew he tried to understand me and even if I was still furious at him for not bringing me two scoops of ice cream instead of one, I knew I had to apologize.
I looked around mine and Emmett's bedroom for a few more moments and I sighed as I guessed he'd be with Nessie downstairs. I hadn't been downstairs for days as the places I visited apart from the bathroom joint with my bedroom were Emmelie's bedroom and that only twice. I decided to go downstairs and find my husband, I missed him already and I knew he didn't want to be away from me as well.
I stood up extremely carefully and stretched my body, supporting my abdomen all the while. I put my satin robe above my nightgown and moved towards the door, I looked up and down at the corridor and then felt stupid as it was like I was sneaking or something. I moved the stairs down slowly, listening to voices and I knew most of the people must be in the house. When I got down the stairs I realized something smelled deliciously, none had realized I was downstairs and when I saw Emmett wasn't in the living room I decided to go to the kitchen.
The smell was even stronger and I could sense the smell of chocolate so I moved a little faster. When I entered the room, Emmett and Edward were there, Edward was making a chocolate cake and Emmett was close to our brother, they were talking about something and I caught Emmett's last words as I entered the room.
'…she will like the cake, we're talking about Rosie, she eats chocolate… a lot…' he was saying and I cleared my throat when I saw they didn't even noticed me, or they seemed not to as I was sure Edward had seen me deciding to come downstairs. Emmett looked at me almost shocked when Edward didn't even turn his head to look at me.
'I'm so sorry for being such a bitch to you,' I said honestly and boldly as the only thing I needed was my husband's arms around me. Emmett smiled at me as he moved closer and hugged me carefully with my belly between us.
'It's OK, love, I should be more careful when you ask for something that you can't get on your own.' Emmett told me softly and kissed the tip of my nose.
'No, I overreacted,' I answered and Emmett put his fingers against my lips as to stop me, we smiled at each other and kissed softly.
'Stop fighting and getting upset, Rosalie, you're in no position for that.' Edward said sternly from behind Emmett and I frowned. 'And you should be upstairs, you're risking too much by standing for so long.' He said and in any other time I'd took his words as teasing but not this time, I got free from Emmett's hands and faced my brother.
'What is your problem? Try to stay in a bloody bed for more than a week and then lecture me about risking!' I snapped loudly and Edward seemed taken aback from my outburst, I didn't care though as all the stress of the past days was too much for me.
'Calm down, Rosie, Ed is right, we should go upstairs.' Emmett told me softly from behind me and that made me even more furious.
'Of course, I've been carrying our child for more than nine months but Edward is right, he's always right!' I said and my voice dripped with sarcasm. A small rational part of my mind screamed at me that I was overreacting once more but the dominant part of my mind, the hormonal one told me to keep up with the outburst. I had turned around, facing my husband and I could see he was lost at the rate of the change in my mood. Carlisle showed up in the doorway and spoke to me.
'Rose, please calm down,' he said and I looked at him for a moment and then threw my arms in exclamation, I was tired of having everyone advising-commanding me to do things, I knew how to take care of myself and my child, I knew how to be careful, I was careful.
'I am calmed!' I shouted and tried to take big breaths as I felt a small stab of pain, Emmett moved closer to me and gripped my hand as I tried to breathe slowly, I gripped both his arms and tried to relax. 'I'm fine, I just need to sit down and I need a glass of –' I stopped midsentence as I felt warm liquid running down my feet, for a moment I got rigid as I thought I was bleeding again but I bowed my body and looked at my feet and saw a colorless liquid pooling on my feet, I looked at Emmett with fear as Carlisle was rushing close to me from the doorway like Edward did from behind me.
'Her water just broke,' Carlisle said but I couldn't reply or even react at his words, as a huge wave of pain washed over me, taking my breath away with it.
