Chapter Five - Heavy In Your Arms

I paced nervously, my hand on my stomach as if it glued there. What if the baby did want human blood, would I have to start murdering innocent people just to keep both me and my baby alive?

I sat on the couch. Where could I get blood from without killing people? A hospital, maybe? They had blood banks full of all kinds of blood. Even if I did use that blood, I needed a reason for it. I couldn't just walk in and say 'Hey I need your blood because my unborn child, who might I add is part vampire, needs blood to survive. Thanks.'

I went back into my room, and picked up the photo of the Cullens.

"You'd know what to do." I said, "I need, like, a sign or something, I need help." I said. There was a sudden knock at the door, making me jump. "You work quick." I said, feeling stupid speaking to a picture.

I went to answer the door. It couldn't be them. Could it? I gasped pretty dramatically when I saw who was stood outside. "Laurent?" I whispered.

"Bella." I said, his eyes suddenly glancing down at my stomach, "You're pregnant?"

I nodded. "What are you doing here?" My hand was still grasped firmly on the door handle.

"I heard you were here, Victoria found out you'd left Forks." My heart stopped when he said her name. "I followed your scent here."

"Why was she in Forks?"

"She was with me, she actually wanted me to check if you were still with the Cullens, but when she saw neither of you were in Forks, she sent me looking for you." I nodded. "She wants to kill you."

"Kill me." I repeated, my hands holding my stomach tightly. "No, she can't... where is she now?"

"She's searching in Canada for you."

"Guess you've got to tell her you've found me." I whispered.

"No." I looked up in shock. "I thought you'd be alone, and you're obviously not. I can't let her kill you when you're pregnant."

"Thank you." I smiled.

"Is there anything you need?" He asked, "I assume this isn't a human child?"

I nodded, caressing my stomach, "It's Edward's, yes."

"Why isn't he with you?"

I sighed, "They left, and he didn't know I was pregnant."

"Oh, I'm sorry. That must of been terrible." He said

I nodded, but looked up "You said if there's anything I need, well, there is actually, if you don't mind?"

"Of course not, anything."

"Well, since the baby is part vampire, I realized that I may need... blood, human blood, to keep us both alive."

"So you need human blood." He asked, I nodded. "I'll go hunt for you." He smiled.

"Thanks Laurent." I said, he nodded before running off.

I backed up into the house, shutting the door after. It was all overwhelming, Laurent wanted to help me and Victoria could find me at anytime. I felt two small kicks, making me jump.

"Don't worry, we'll be fine." I whispered, rubbing the spot where I felt the kicks. I sat on the couch, my hand hadn't moved from my stomach. "You need a name." I said.

I realized I had no baby books or anything, so I had to think up names from memory. "For a girl, how about... Melissa?" I said, awaiting a kick or some form of reaction. Nothing. "Hm... okay, how about Sarah?" Still nothing. "Samantha?" I felt a light flutter, making me chuckle. "Okay, now if your a boy... Luke?" Immediately I felt a kick, "Luke or Samantha. Perfect."

Now I had middle names to think of. I had those sorted out, Alice or Jacob.

Luke Jacob Swan if my baby's a boy. Samantha Alice Swan if it's a girl.

"I can't wait to put one of these names to your face." I whispered, "I can't wait to meet you." I chuckled.

I jumped suddenly as my cell buzzed next to me. It was Jacob. I picked my phone up, battling with myself whether to answer it. I ignored it, and he eventually gave up. But seconds later he left a voicemail message.

"Bella, it's Jake. Where are you? Charlie is worried sick, hell so is everyone. I had to convince him that you wouldn't have the will to... kill yourself or do something stupid at one point. Just plese, if you get this, just a text or something letting me know your okay."

I sighed, Charlie was worried sick, I dreaded how Renee was feeling.

But Jacob was on my mind. Surely I could tell him what's happened, he wouldn't tell Charlie I was having a vampire's child, and to make matter's worse that vampire was Edward, and he dd't really like Edward much.

I took a deep breath and called Jake.

"Hello?"

I sighed again, "Jake, it's Bella, I got your message--"

"Bella! Are you okay? Where are you?"

I chuckled, "Jake calm down, I'm fine."

"Sorry, but where are you?"

"Is Charlie with you?"

"No, I'm alone, Charlie's out with my Dad looking for you. Please, tell me where you are and why the hell you ran away."

"The reason I ran away was because... I... don't freak out, promise?"

His laughter bellowed down the phone. "Of course I won't freak out. It's not like you're... I don't know, pregnant or something, right?" I stayed silent, and heard his light gasp "Oh."

"Mhm. Exactly my reaction." I lightly chuckled.

"Are the bloodsuckers with you?"

"No, that's the other reason I ran away."

"Well... where are you, at least tell me that?"

"Montana."

"Right--"

"Jake, promise you won't tell Charlie anything I've told you."

"I promise. But congratulations, even if it is that leeches spawn, it still has half of you in it."

"Thank you, Jake."

I put the phone down, just as the fron door burst open, Laurent was holding bottles of blood. I chuckled, standing up. "What did you do?" I asked, chuckling.

"I figured you wouldn't want to drink the blood straight from a human body, so I bottled it up for you. Here," He handed me a bottle, filled to the brim with crimson liquid. "Enjoy."

I swallowed heavily, "This for you, little one." I unscrewed the bottle, shut my eyes and drank. After the first gulp, I felt stronger.

"Is it good?" He asked.

"Peculiar. But surprisingly nice." I said, before drinking it again.

No - there will be no LaurentXBella, if you've read We Forgive You, you'll see she's with Marcus. So, review? x
