So sorry for being away for so long. I can't believe there are still people adding this to their story alerts! Thank you, all of you. This chapter is in Emma's view.

"Hey mama can I ask you a question?" Emma asked, leaning against the kitchen counter. It was just her, Alice and Kate in the house. Everyone else was out either hunting or working. "If you're going to ask me how long it will be before your lunch is ready I'll making you wait twenty minutes after it's done." Alice replied over her shoulder, still cutting the head of lettuce.

Emma let out a chuckle and shook her head. "Actually I was gonna ask you why you think it is that you got pregnant with me and Kate." Emma said, keeping her eyes trained on the marble counter underneath her hands.

Alice froze and gently set the knife down next to the head of lettuce. She glanced at the ceiling to make sure Kate still had her nose in a book, when she heard the flip of a page she slowly turned around to her other daughter.

"Are you pregnant?"

Emma's head whipped up and her eyes nearly bulged out of her skull. "Hell no! I-we-I'm not." She stammered out and let out a breath when she saw Alice also relax. "I was just wondering why you think it is that you managed to get pregnant. I mean you and Mom are both females and are of two different… 'species' so it should be impossible, yet here I stand." Emma finished, drumming her fingers lightly on the counter.

It had been plaguing her mind for months. Years if she was honest. She really was curious as to how she and her sister came into the world, or at least what one of parents thought about it. Everyone called the twins miracles, yet no one could quite explain how they came about.

It caused Emma to sort of envy Nessie in a way. Her parents were a regular heterosexual couple, if you overlook the fact that they're vampires. So it was a simple matter of biology that explained her existence.

Alice let out a sigh, drawing her daughter's eyes to her. She gave the girl a sad, knowing smile. "Well, as you know the Quileute people don't really know what imprinting is for." Alice began as she lifted her self up on the counter next to her daughter.

"Some believe that it's so the wolves have something more than just their land to fight for while others believe it's to continue on the bloodline. I honestly think it's so that they don't forget that they're human." Alice said, smiling sadly.

"You know what it's like to be a wolf. To run between the trees and be one with the forest so you can probably understand why they need to be reminded of their humanity. You understand how it's so easy to loose yourself to it and to not want to go back." Alice gave Emma a small smile and squeezed her hand.

"Your Mother didn't take imprinting on me too well. I was something that she grew up thinking was a legend. Then I turned into something that took away her first love. Soon after that I was something that turned her into a monster. So you can imagine that she was livid that I also turned into her future." Alice, continued with a guilty look on her face. Emma kissed her hand to get her to smile a small, loving smile.

"Some how she managed to, for lack of a better term, get her shit together." Emma chuckled at her and nodded her hand knowing just how well how stubborn her Mom could be.

"She came back and watched me from afar, trying to get use to the idea that she felt more for me than she would ever feel for Sam. Then she took baby steps in getting to know me." Alice's smile grew. "She took me out on dates and listened to me ramble on about the latest fashions that she had zero interests in. Before long she asked me to marry her."

Emma smiled, she loved hearing about her parents. She didn't exactly love the painful parts. Actually she downright hated them, but every great love story does have a little bit of pain in it. And to Emma her parents' love was one of the greatest stories ever.

"But what about me and Kate? I mean how did you two…create us?" Emma asked, trying to wrap her head around things. Alice pecked her on the forehead.

"Not to sound cliché, my dear daughter, but I believe that you and your sister were created out of love."

Emma just looked at her with a blank expression on her face, causing Alice to sigh.

"Every time, your mother and I…have alone time it is about love. But one night after Nessie was born and all the stress was slowly going away, but still nagging at the family it just happened. I needed to be held and told that I had made it through this. I needed someone to show me that I was loved, that I could let everything go because I was in their arms. Leah needed the same. And I can honestly say that it was the best night of my existence."

Emma nodded her head in agreement. She could understand how her and her sister were made, but she couldn't understand one thing.

"Why is it that you were the pregnant one? Shouldn't it have been Mom since she's basically human?"

Alice gave her daughter a full blown smile. "That is the true mystery behind you and your sister." She said with a wink.

"I think it's because of Leah's wolf. You know how she is about you and Kate. She doesn't become a Mama Bear, she becomes a Mama Wolf. Which is quite scarier than any ole bear." Emma grinned and let Alice bump their shoulders. "I think her wolf thought that I wouldn't really be able to protect myself while I was carrying you two."

Emma nodded her head. She let it all sink in and it did make sense and calm her curiosity.

"To be honest I didn't think you and your sister were going to survive." Alice said, getting serious once again. "I couldn't see the future around Jake and Nessie. I could only see a few minutes into it around your Mom. So I was scared that you two weren't going to make it or I wasn't going to make it." Emma looked away, tears in her eyes.

She knew what it was like to not know if you were going to have your soul mate in your future and it hurt her to know that she had put her Mom through that.

"We would have taken good care of Mom if you hadn't…" Emma, whispered out. Alice wrapped her arms around her ran her fingers through her soft, short hair.

"I know, little one, I know. But I wanted to live for not only your Mom but also for you and your sister. I couldn't let you two grow up without me." Alice said, softly, remembering that time of uncertainty.

While Bella's pregnancy hadn't of been a cake walk, Alice's was a bit more difficult. Not only was she carrying twins, but she was a vampire carrying hybrid werewolf twins. She couldn't digest human food like Bella and for the first few weeks they worried about the two little lives inside her dying before they could see the world.

She had all the cravings that a pregnant human would have, but she just couldn't get the nutrients from the food to her daughter. But after concerns for the health of the twins and the mother that was carrying them Alice tried animal blood. It helped the twins more than her. Her skin was paler than it had ever been and her eyes were a faded gold.

The birth took a lot out of her and Rose's departure didn't help any. It took months for her to finally get out of bed. It took even longer for her to feel like her old self.

Looking down at one of her daughters she knew she wouldn't have changed any of it for the world.

"How about you go out and find Mom and you two hang out for a bit. I'll finish making lunch." Emma said, pulling away to look at Alice. She looked down at her with a thoughtful look. "Are you sure, sweetheart?"

Emma shook her head yes and gave her a peck on the cheek, before hopping up and picking up the knife to resume Alice's previous task. "Go, catch a couple of deer and be nauseatingly adorable in love with your soul mate." Emma said, teasingly.

Alice laughed and gave her daughter a quick hug before exchanging I love you's and heading out the back door. It wasn't until Alice was far enough away from the house that Kate entered the kitchen.

"Well, that was interesting." She said, taking Emma's previous spot. She looked at her twin with a thoughtful look. A few silent minutes passed before it was broken, "So there's no way that you got any of those girls pregnant down at the Rez?"

"I didn't love any of them and I'm sure only one of them thought that she might love me. And the one that was pregnant apparently slept with some tourist like the day after we fucked. Besides sex with all of them wasn't sex. It was fucking."

Kate looked at her sister with a confused look on her face. "Ok what's the difference between sex and fucking?"

Emma turned around and started slicing the lettuce while she answered her twin. "Fucking is rough, animalistic and is all about getting off. Sex is just about feeling good and making someone else feel good. Some would say it's an ego boost or some shit."

All was quiet in the kitchen for a few more moments. "So, do you think that you may get Rose pregnant in the near future?" Kate asked, curiosity in her voice. Emma froze, the blade in her hand just about to slice into the vegetable.

"I honestly don't know. All I know is that I feel like something is going to change. Soon. Whether it's something big like a death or a birth I don't know." Emma said, slowly, looking over at her sister.

"Nice to know that our wonder twin powers still work. Cause I feel it too."

"What do you think about us having a family?" Emma asked, cautiously. She and Rose were sitting at their lighthouse. Rose reading a book and Emma strumming random cords on her guitar.

Rosalie whipped her head up from the page that she was on to look at Emma next to her. She really hadn't expected that to come out of Emmy's mouth for a very long time. Like decades long.

"Um, I would love that. But I honestly don't think that we're ready to have one now. I mean-" "I don't think we're ready to start one right now, either. I was just wondering like in general what do you see." Emma cut her off, before she could get ahead of herself. Rose closed the book, marking her page and looked at Emma. A slow smile spread on her face.

"I think a son and a daughter would be lovely. But the boy would have to be born first. I know that any child of ours would be protected by their uncles and grandparents very well, but a sibling bond is pretty strong, so he would protect his sister if anything ever happened." Rosalie's face widen in a dreamy smile as she pictured it in her mind's eye.

"He would have my blonde hair and his eyes would be light green, blue like yours. His smile would be mine, but he would have the same adorable dimples that you have." Rosalie paused, concentrating on conjuring the child up in her mind. A small smile flittered on her face. "We could name him Henry or Logan."

Emma smiled at Rose. She nodded her head in agreement. "After the son of your friend, Vera, right?" She asked, liking the name even more knowing that it came from a good part of her imprint's past. "Henry Cullen-Clearwater has a nice ring to it. Of course it can be Henry Hale-Clearwater or Henry Brandon-Hale at home."

The blonde nodded her head and smiled. "I like Hale-Clearwater. I think Leah would like that too. It's a shame that you can't use your actually last name in public." Emma nodded her head in agreement. "What about you?" She asked, curious as to why children were brought up.

Emma sighed and ran a hand through her hair in thought. "I always pictured a little girl running around." Emma looked at Rose and smiled. "I thought maybe we could name her Vera or Lily. I've always liked the name Lily."

Rose nodded her head in agreement. They were both lovely names. "Long blonde hair, that won't allow itself to be tamed." Emma smirked, recalling the daydreams she often had. "I think she would have the same eyes that you had when you were human. A sort of violet color. I think she would take after you, but her sense of humor would be like mine, always finding the sexual in the non-sexual." They both let out a laugh.

After they had quieted down Rosalie looked at Emma, thoughtfully. "She should have your smile. It's beautiful." Rosalie whispered.

They looked at each other with content smiles on their faces, hands and hearts linked, and nodded in agreement.

I noticed in chapter three that I had Emma's last name as Cullen-Clearwater & in chapter right she told Emmett that it was Brandon-Clearwater. To clear up any confusion I explained why she has two different last names. Please, please review, I want to know how many people actually read this.
