Chapter 6

Finally at the end of the day we all crammed into Edward's little car at least for a little while. About a mile away from the school he stopped and I got out and ran the rest of the way home. I beat them to the house by five minutes and Carlisle met me outside to tell me what was wrong with Jacob. "Don't worry he just has the flu he really should have eaten that fruit that Esme gave him this morning." I headed for the door but Carlisle stopped me before I reached the door knob. I seriously thought about flooring him but considered he had a good reason for doing this so I waited. "It may not be the best idea for you to be around him right now."I stood still waiting for an explanation "Well you remember the conversation Edward and I had this morning. Well we think you maybe… pregnant." I fell to the ground at the word. It was true being half human had made the rules change. My mother and aunts couldn't have children but could I? I had never thought about it because I never had the normal human female problem of a period. "Is it really possible?" Carlisle helped me up as I asked the question. "Well I can run the same kind of test we ran on your mother but really I have no idea. This is all new to me." Edward and Bella ran to me as if Carlisle couldn't handle helping me alone; I didn't even notice them pulling into the drive way."Is Jacob alright?" Bella was the only one of the vampires that worried about Jacob nearly as much as I did. "No, ma he's ok he just has the flu, but Carlisle just told me he thinks that I might," I was rudely interrupted by my father. "Carlisle thinks she might be able to catch the flu. I think she should stay out at barn until he gets better." The barn really wasn't a barn. As soon as we moved in Esme made it her job to turn the barn into a house for whoever may want or need to use it. I knew that both him and Carlisle would be using Jacob's sickness as the perfect opportunity to try and find out whether or not I am pregnant. Edward walked with me out to the "barn". "So when do you think we can tell mom about the theory." We both sat down as he thought of the right way to talk about the situation. "I think it would be best to not tell her until we are positive about this situation. Not to mention she freaked out about getting married and than had a panic attack about being a mother I would hate to see what she does when she finds out she's a grandmother." I laughed at the thought of Jacob's little red rabbit being turned into a pile of thoughts were interrupted by my dad's laughter. He always hated that Jacob loved that little slow car because we loved to be going fast. Carlisle came in and ruined our father daughter moment and the doctor look was back on his face. "Well I guess I need to get creative since I can't check your blood. Unless Edward wants to hurt you because I wouldn't have the heart to do it myself and needles have never been able to penetrate your skin." Carlisle did have a point the only thing that has been able to get through my skin is my own teeth. This would complicate things.
