My Paper Heart
Chapter 9
Jasper left for Basic Training last week and was so reluctant to do so.
I've had a rough time with morning sickness so far, which I think is mostly because I'm such a nervous wreck about being pregnant, I don't want to lose this baby.
We'd found a nice condo that was family friendly and the all important weight room for Emmett while he's living with me.
It's got two master suite's so when Rose comes up to visit they'll have privacy too and the rooms are nice and big, it also has a small office that I'm going to use as the nursery for now.
Emmett and I were all moved in and Rose was coming up for week long visit before she wasn't able to drive anymore.
I'd been to my doctor and everything was going well, today was big day. I was going to find out what I was having. I so wished I had Jasper here with me and to make things worse, I hadn't heard from him since he left for boot camp.
Emmett and my dad were in the waiting room, waiting for me.
"Bella, how are you feeling today?" the doctor asked.
"Nervous, but at least the vomiting has stopped." I smiled.
"That's good to hear. Any pains or spotting?" she asked.
"No, but I do get to feel the baby move, A LOT and sometimes I think I'm going to be sick because of the movement." I giggled. "And I feel so big and I eat all the time. I feel like I'm going to give birth before my brothers girlfriend and she's due any day now." I sighed.
"Well, let's look at you and see. Lift your shirt and we'll see how far you're measuring and take a look at your precious package." the doctor smiled.
"Well, you're measuring 24 weeks, so that's a little ahead of where we thought you should be. So let's take a look at the baby and see how big it is, that might give us a little better idea." she smiled and put the goop on my belly. "I'm also making a video of this, you said your fiance is at boot camp, right?" she asked.
"Yes ma'am." I replied.
"Well this way he doesn't miss a thing. Plus I'll print out pictures so you can send him one." she nodded.
She ran the wand over my belly clicking here and there and and showed me toes and spine and eyes, assuring me everything was OK. We listened to the heartbeat and then she stopped and looked puzzled.
"Bella, I need to switch to the internal ultrasound. I need to check something out, is that OK?" she asked.
"Of course, you're the doctor." I nodded.
She handed me a towel to wipe off the goop while she got the other machine ready.
Soon we were looking at the baby again.
"Bella, Um, you're having twins." she smiled.
"And they're going to be boys." her smile grew.
"Twins? Boys?" I questioned.
"Yes!" she laughed with me as I started laughing and crying.
She showed me everything.
"I don't know why I couldn't tell before, I guess their heartbeats are about the same, which is uncommon, so we'll keep an eye on that. I want you in my office every two weeks from now on and anytime you have the slightest discomfort." she demanded.
"OK." I smiled.
She handed me everything and told me to make my next appointment.
I walked out after making my appointment bursting to tell my brother and dad.
"Twin boys!" I smiled.
They hugged me tightly and congratulated me.
"I can't wait to tell Jasper. I've got video and pictures." I showed the pictures to them as we walked to the car.
"I can't wait to be a dad.' Emmett beamed.
"You'll be a great one." I smiled.
"But I'm going to miss out on so much." he sighed.
"You're doing it to provide a better future. Think of that." my dad clapped his back.
"I know. You sure you'll be OK for a while alone sis? I gotta be with Rose while she has the babies." he smiled.
"Yes Emmett, I'll be fine. You guys are a phone call away." I shrugged.
We ate dinner before they took off towards Forks and I relaxed for the night with Netflix.
Emmett called me a couple days later announcing he was a father to Cecilia Marie Swan.
They sent me pictures and said they'd be home with her in a few days.
Everything had flown by and I hadn't even thought about how long Jasper had been gone because Rose had been practically living here and things are crazy.
They're actually looking for a place of their own because Emmett can't stand the thought of being away from his daughter and now wife, yes they went to the courthouse and just made it official.
"Bella, you do know that Jasper was sent overseas right?" Rose asked.
"What? No!" I gasped before everything went black.
AN:
Hope you enjoy this little cliffy…
Why wouldn't Jasper invite her to his boot camp/basic training graduation?
Why wouldn't he tell her he's being shipped out?
