Disclaimer: Same as chapter 1.

Note: Thank you so much for all the reviews. I plan on touching on a couple of issues you have brought up; Emmett possible lack of protection in the first chapters (which I wasn't on putting in the story before you brought it up, but I had thought of it, I was going to leave it obscure), and Winter is not done yet, I have a plan for her.

Chapter 26:

In the original plan, Carlisle was supposed to declare Rian dead at some point at the hospital, someone down in the morgue was supposed to lose the paper work for a body they never say, and someone at the funeral home was supposed to burn a body that wasn't there in yet another mix up. It might have brought up many questions with all the mix ups and misunderstandings, but it was the best plan to have Rian at the Cullen's home before she began to show too much. But this plan was not suitable to execute after Winter and Rian's fight. They were worried that Winter would be brought up on charges or an investigation would ensue and the Cullen's couldn't risk that.

Rian drank from her dark cup, eagerly, while she waited on her father to make it back with her human food. "We should try to come up with another plan quickly. Any suggestions?" She asked Emmett as he held her hand.

"I'm not sure. Everything I come up with, can be lead back to us."

"Oh, how about Alexander!" Rian said suddenly changing the subject. "It'd go nice with Finley as a second name too. Finley Alexander."

"Baby names are what's on your mind right now?"

"No, but it just came to me when I stopped thinking on names so hard. Maybe I should just 'run away'. If the police do come, you could always use your speed to get me away before they searched the house. Well, you should probably be there, maybe Alice or Esme could get me out of there." It was the best idea she's had since they original plan was ruined.

"We could hire a look alike to have you seen if the police won't leave us alone. Like at an airport or something."

"I've never ran away before, but with all my mental issues, it probably won't be questioned."

"We'll see what Carlisle thinks later. And I like Alexander. So first boy is Finley Alexander, and the first girl is Hadley Anora. What about for baby number 2?"

Rian sighed, and crashed back against her raised hospital bed: more baby names. As if the first four weren't hard enough.

When the door opened again, her father came in carrying bags of food from the diner she had previously asked for food from. He placed them down on the tiny rolling table they have at every hospital and turned towards Emmett. "Didn't get you anything, you'll have to go downstairs to the hospital cafeteria." He said rather rudely to the teenage boy. Rian couldn't really blame him for being rude and upset at Emmett.

Emmett just smiled at the man, "No problem. I already ate anyway."

Her father narrowed his eyes at the boy sitting in the chair, still holding Rian's hand. "I need to talk to my daughter, alone."

Rian could feel the color draining from her face, he wanted to have that conversation she was supposed to have before she ended up in the hospital. Crap.

Emmett flashed her an encouraging smile as he stood up, leaned over and kissed her forehead before he left the room. She was left in the room with only her father and no possible way to get out of this… most likely uncomfortable conversation.

"What are you planning to do?"

"I am keeping the baby, dad." We are keeping the baby."

"Keeping it is a mistake. You are only just about to turn 17, how do you plan to go to college? What are you going to do about money? How are you going to feed it?" Her father seemed get angrier and angrier with each question.

"I think we will be fine. Emmett's parents are willing to help. And I'll probably have to wait a year or two on college." It was the truth, but it wasn't because of the babies that she'd have to wait on college, she wouldn't be able to finish high school for a while. As she thought of this, she realized it would be about eight to ten years before she'd even be able to go back to school. She didn't want to miss a moment of her children's short childhood, granted if she lived long enough to see it.

"You are not waiting on college. Having this baby at such a young age is not good for you, you are giving up your entire future for this boy and I don't like it" Her father was saying through clinched teeth. "You need to give the baby up for adoption if you want any kind of future for yourself or this boy."

"I can't. Adoption is not an option for me." She was making it sound like she couldn't physically give the baby up, which is true, but it was more than that too. She couldn't give a half-vampire baby up to an unsuspecting parent.

"You will if you want to come back to the house." Her father said suddenly, unexpectedly. She felt her face drop, she couldn't believe her father would react like this. He was always so gentle and urging his children to make their own choices. "And if you don't come back to the house, I'll have you declared mentally unfit to make this decision."

"No! You can't do that!" She was screaming. Tears were already filling her eyes and she wanted nothing more than to lash out at her father. This didn't seem like him.

"I can and I will. If you had come to me sooner, I'd have taken you to the clinic to get an abortion." She couldn't believe the words he was say. He had seemed so happy when she woke up, but now he was completely different.

Rian subconsciously placed her hand on her stomach, partly to protect her children from this unknown man and partly because she felt nauseous once again. "That is enough." Rian looked at the third person in the room and wondered when he came into the room. When she started shouting maybe? Carlisle was standing in front of a very angry Emmett. "Rian does not need the added stress of her father pushing her to do something she clearly had time to think about." Carlisle was trying his best to keep his own anger out of his voice as he confronted Rian's father.

The girl's father looked from Rian to Carlisle as he spoke, his hands balled into fists. "Stay out of this, Doc." He said 'Doc' with as much sarcasm he could muster. "You do not know anything about my family, especially my daughter. Giving up her child is the best thing for her and she clearly is not fit to make that decision herself."

With that her father left the room, she was in tears on the hospital bed for hours. He didn't come to pick her up the next day when Carlisle discharged her. Instead Emmett drove her to the Cullen house.

Yes, this part of the plan did not go according to plan at all.
