Everything belongs to their respective owners.
Paul POV:
I placed Bella on the bed started walking downstairs to make us some dinner. I hadn't even realized it was 5:00 pm. "Hey where in the world are you going?" Bella asked when she noticed I was leaving.
"I'm going to go and make some dinner for us?" I said it more like a question than a statement.
Bella blushed. "Uh sorry, yeah go ahead but do you think you could do me a favor?" She bit her bottom lip.
I smiled at the opportunity to help my princess. "Of course what do you need princess?" I asked walking over to her.
"You think you could call Kim and Emily to come over. The phone is still downstairs and I can't get up for awhile under any circumstances apart from the bathroom, doctors stupid orders." She grumbled annoyed.
I laughed "Yeah I'll be back in a bit." I kissed her forehead and after telling her to listen to the doctor and that I loved her. I went downstairs grabbing the phone and dialing Sam's number. He picked up on the fourth ring. "Paul?"
"How's Bella? Are the babies okay?"I could hear Emily yelling in the background.
I smiled to myself. "Yes Sam it's me and Bella is fine she's on bed rest for a few weeks and has to take it easy the rest of the pregnancy but she's good. The twins are fine they are actually why I'm calling Bella's bored but I have to make dinner and then I have to do some work at the fire station because the chief needs all fire volunteers there tonight." I rambled on.
Sam chuckled. "Yeah sure we can come over besides I needed to talk to you about what happened in the forest with that leech and Bella."
My voice hardened. "Sure, why don't you get the rest of the pack and their imprints; I'm sure Bella wouldn't mind seeing all of them." I said before hanging up not giving him time to reply. I turned to the fridge and found the potatoes from last night. "Hash browns it is." I grabbed the frying pan and started cutting the potatoes into squares.
By the time the hash browns were done I had made toast, bacon and eggs too. Breakfast for dinner, best meal ever. I smiled to myself and started heading up the stairs when I was stopped by the ringing doorbell. I set the tray of food on the table in the dining room and went to answer it. "Hey guys come in girls you can follow me." I said and started walking before anyone could talk. I grabbed the tray of food and went upstairs with all the girls following closely on my heels.
All of the imprint's squealed when I opened the door and saw Bella sitting on the bed reading. Bella jumped and I growled at the imprints for making her jump. I heard multiple growls from downstairs towards me but only rolled my eyes in return. "Paul be nice I'm fine, I told you that already."
I nodded at her and handed the tray to her and kissed her cheek before heading back downstairs before I could hear all about their girly gossip. I closed the door behind me and went down stairs. I walked past all the guys and collapsed into my reclining chair and leaned my head back closing my eyes. Today had been one of the longest days of my life.
"So what happened in the forest?" Seth asked looking at me. I didn't need my eyes open to know they were all staring at me.
"Damned if I know. Bella said he attacked her, she through her hands up in attempt to protect herself and then he was as still as a statue." I said leaning forward.
It had been ten weeks since the day Laurent tried to hurt Bella and we still weren't any closer to figuring out why he froze. We knew it had something to do with Bella but nothing else. We had been going to Carlisle every week now to make sure the twins were okay and so far so good. At just over five months Bella had a bump and I couldn't stop touching it. I found any way possible or any reason to feel our babies in her belly.
At the moment we were sitting on the couch in the Cullen's living room watching a movie while Carlisle was looking and researching for anything. All of a sudden he ran out with a smile on his face. "I did it! I figured out why he fro- wait that wouldn't work," He sighed. "Sorry everyone." He said before walking back into his office. He'd been doing that a lot lately.
I rolled my eyes and continued to rub Bella's ever growing Belly. I was just about to take my hand back and ask Bella if she needed the rest room seeing as she was still on bed rest when she gasped and something kicked my hand. I jumped back in shock.
"What happened? Carlisle came running out as he saw Bella's hand on her stomach and tears running down her face. "The baby just kicked."
I smiled broadly and went and put my hand back on her belly. "Hey guys it's your daddy can you kick again but not hard enough to hurt your mommy." I placed both my hands on her belly and I felt a kick hit my right hand again.
Carlisle laughed. "May I?" He asked and Paul nodded moving to sit beside me again wiping the tears from my eyes and kissing me.
Carlisle felt them kick but his brow furrowed. "Bella does it hurt when they kick?" He asked suddenly.
Bella looked worried and confused. "No why? Is something wrong?"
"Bella they are kicking much harder than any baby I have felt before at this point. I'm sure Paul you noticed how hard they were kicking." He asked as another kick came.
I looked down at Bella and nodded slightly. "Yeah but I guess I was so focused on actually feeling my kids kick for the first time I didn't notice."
"It doesn't hurt it feels more like a ticklish feeling. " Bella shrugged still worried.
Bella put her hand on her belly and her shirt rose up revealing her vampire bite scar and werewolf claw marks. Carlisle looked at her arm and smiled. "I think I figured it out." He said smiling widely. In an instant everyone came into the living room. The pack had been here to see the babies and just stuck around.
"Well what's up doc?" Seth asked being his odd self.
"I think Bella is having after effects of the vampire venom that had been in her system and the werewolf scars-"
My panic had risen at the phrase vampire venom. "But vampire venom kills werewolves!" I snarled grabbing Bella and pulling her closer to me but gentle enough not to hurt her. A low growl built up in my chest.
"But Bella's not a wolf and it could be why Laurent froze. Vampire's have powers as you now and the small traces of venom could have mixed with her DNA and created a stronger being that has a bit of both genes, human and vampire." Carlisle explained.
"Does this mean I'm gonna turn into a vampire?" Bella asked raising her eyebrows.
Carlisle laughed. "No but you will most likely have better hearing better eye sight and I think you have the ability to freeze objects or time which is a trait of the vampire venom." He said smiling again.
"So what about the babies, the traces of venom won't hurt them because they are werewolves or they have werewolf blood in them." Had I put my kids at risk again? Being a dad isn't going to be easy at this rate.
"I don't think so seeing as you grow to adapt to your surroundings. They have been in Bella's womb growing for five months so they have adapted to the venom and will most likely be stronger werewolves if they phase." Carlisle answered like he knew everything.
