Chapter 16
(Bella's Pov.)
Everyone files back into the room happily, and he is passed around. We stay there for about half an hour before someone notices something. "He's growing! Faster than Ness ever did!" Jacob muses as he looks at him in his arms.
I never thought I would see Jacob holding my son. "Are you upset his name's not Edward Jacob?" I tease. "Nope!" He responds cheerfully. I grin at him, relieved he didn't hate my son.
Carlisle looks at me and says, "I say he'll stop growing by the time he looks about eight-teen."
"I hope so Carlisle." I say, slight worry in my voice.
Renesmee comes back over to where she was standing by Jacob. She sits on the bed next to me and I hug her to my body. "May I hold him?" She asks. "Of course baby!" I answer in awe. She is so sweet and well mannered.
Jacob brings him over and hands him to me. I tell Renesmee to sit Indian style on the bed and Edward comes over to shape her arms into a cradle. When she's ready, I set Eddie into her arms. It's the most beautiful site I've ever seen. My daughter holding her little brother.
I felt like my life was complete now, and It was an amazing feeling. I wasn't going to tell Nessie for a while, but we were staying here. It wasn't just my son that made our family whole, it was everyone. And talking with Rose made me realize that I could deal with the imprint. There would be boundaries, but I wouldn't separate them.
Renesmee rocks Eddie back and forth, cooing to him in a soft voice. She stares into his eyes and yelps. "His eyes! They're getting more gold!" She says almost yelling.
Eddie jerks from his almost asleep state and instantly Renesmee starts screaming in real pain.
