Chapter 16
'No' Jacob growled out. 'You're not going to be her doctor' Leah and Embry growl in agreement. I sigh and roll my eyes. 'Jacob, what if there's something wrong with the baby, you want me to sit and wait for another?' I ask him. He looks me in the eyes. 'It's just a check up. It's not like I'm given birth'
He sigh. 'Fine, But we're not leaving the room' He says looking at Dr. Cullen. 'I understand. This way.' He says, then leads us to a room. He closes the door, when we all go in. 'Hop on' He says. Jacob helps me get on the exam table. 'I could've did that' He smiles. 'Yeah, we know how that goes' Embry says. Jacob moves to be next to me.
Dr. Cullen get's out a clip board. 'Can you tell me what happened.' He ask. I sigh. 'I fainted the 1st time when I found out I was pregnant, 2nd time must've been earlier today' 'Must've been?' He asks. 'Yeah, they said I fainted after I got off the phone with Jacob.' 'Did you feel any dizziness or nausea?' I nod. 'Yeah, after I threw my phone to the wall I got a head rush but that was it'
'That's how Seth found her, in the bedroom on the floor' Leah adds. 'But I don't remember falling to the floor, I just got up and on with my day. Till Seth burst my bubble of getting a ride to Port Angels' I say that last part angrily. I nearly faint off the table, They all move to catch me but Jacob catches me. 'Are you, okay?' I nod. He sit me back up. 'Are you a wolf' Dr. Cullen asks me suddenly.
'Yeah, it's in there somewhere' He nods. 'I'm guessing every time you get Angry you faint instead of phasing, It could be the body's way of protecting you from phasing.' I look at Jacob. 'Told you perfect fit for a doctor' I say to him. He shakes his head. 'No' 'But, Jacob' 'No' 'Fine' 'What are y'all talking about?' Leah asks. 'Jacob doesn't think it would be a good idea to have a doctor that knows about the supernatural'
'I don't know Jacob' Embry says. 'He did figure this one out and ain't no telling what another doctor would have said' I smile. 'Fine' He says, throwing his arms. I look at Dr. Cullen. 'Dr. Cullen would you be my doctor?' I ask. He smiles. 'I love too' He says. I put my hand out for a shake. Jacob growls. 'Jacob, he's going to be touching me unless he have superpowers when he can't?'
They laugh except Jacob. 'Fine' Dr. Cullen shakes my hand. I smile. Cool Touch. We break apart. 'Didn't you guys have an appointment?' Leah asks. 'Yes, we did' I say. 'Why don't we get started on that since you're already here?' I look at Jacob. He nods. 'I'll send a nurse in and she can do a blood test' 'But I'm already pregnant' 'For Medical records' I nod. 'Not Nurse Green, I hope' I say. He laughs and walk out.
'Lacie, you are so going to Hell for threatening that Nurse' Leah says to me. I laugh. 'She did nothing to you except ask you a question and you threatened to kick her ass.' Embry laughs. The Nurse comes in. Not Nurse Green. I smirk. The wolves shake their head. 'Hi, I'm Nurse Scott and I'll be taking your blood' She says to me. I smile. 'Are you related to Nurse Green' I ask her.
'What?' She asks. 'Nothing, she's crazy that's all' Jacob says. I laugh. She wraps the band around my arm and wet it. I hold my hand out to Jacob. He grabs it. I look at her pull the needle out. My eyes widen. Embry and Leah laugh. Jacob moves up to me and turns my head away from the needle. 'Ow' I say when she put it in my arm.
She takes my blood then she takes the needle out. She put a bandage on it. 'All done' She says. I turn my head back. 'Do I get a lollipop?' I ask her. Embry and Leah laughs. She smiles. 'Maybe next time' She says and walk out. I sigh. 'You think he'll allow us to see the baby?' I ask out loud. Jacob smiles. 'I hope so.' I bite my lip. The door opens up and a machine is pushed in.
My eyes widen. I start clapping. They start laughing. 'I guess you was waiting for this' Dr. Cullen says. 'I was, I was' I happily say. 'Nurse Scott' He calls. He sets up the machine. She comes in. 'Can I have you to lay back' She says. I look behind me and lay back. She pulls my shirt up. I look at Jacob. He smiling. I hold his hand. He squeeze it.
I jump. 'Sorry, I forgot to warn that it's a little cold.' Nurse Scott says apologetic. 'A little you sure that wasn't an ice cube.' She laughs. 'All set Dr. Cullen' She says to him. 'All set' He says. Nurse Scott leave out the room and closes the door. He moves the ultrasound wand or whatever it is on my stomach. I look at the screen. 'I don't see nothing' I impatiently say. 'Give him time, Lacie' Leah says looking too.
I bite my lip. 'Here it is' He says. He turns a knob and the room fills up with the sound of a heart beat. I gasp. 'That is the sound of your baby's heartbeat.' Dr. Cullen state. Tears prickles out my eyes. I look at Jacob. He's about to cry. I laugh. 'Jacob' He looks at me. 'That's our daughter' He kiss me. 'Well your daughter's heartbeat sounds strong' Dr. Cullen says, smiling.
I look back at the screen. I smile. 'She's healthy?' Jacob asks. Dr. Cullen nods. 'She's real healthy and developing fast' 'How fast?' Jacob asks. 'Lacie's only 8 weeks but from the ultrasound she's 17 weeks' Dr. Cullen answers. 'Wow, Lacie and you slept with Jacob a week and a half ago' Embry says. I glare at him. He holds up his hand. 'The baby is growing too fast' Dr. Cullen says.
'Is that dangerous?' Leah asks. 'For the baby, no but for the mom, yes' My eyes widen. 'What?' I ask. 'How dangerous?' Jacob asks, concerned. 'The baby's going to start robbing you of nutrients. The mother's body grows along with the baby, but the baby's doing most of the growing' 'So you're saying that the baby's going to kill me' I say. He nod. Jacob growl. 'Jacob, calm down' Embry says putting his hand on his shoulder.
'We're dealing with a supernatural pregnancy' Dr. Cullen says. 'I've never seen anything like it before' 'So the fainting?' I ask. 'Probably a symptom of you getting weaker' He turns the machine off and wipes my stomach off. I pull down my shirt. I sigh. 'I can do more test at my house' He says. 'We're not going to a house full of leeches' Jacob growls out.
'Jacob, we need to know more about what we're dealing with' I tell him. He sigh. 'When can we come?' I ask. 'My shift ends in 4 hours, I'll be able to set up at the house for you' I nod. 'Your pregnancy will have to be monitored closely' I nod. 'Are we done?' I ask. 'Yes, If you excuse m-' 'Can I talk to you outside?' Jacob asks. 'Sure' Dr. Cullen says. He walks out and Jacob follows behind and closes the door.
I sit up and I sigh. 'Can you hear what they're talking about?' I ask, Leah and Embry. They shake their heads. 'He must not want us to hear.' Embry says. I put my head in my hands. Leah sit beside me. 'Everything will work out' She tells me, while comforting me. 'And if it don't?' I ask. 'Nothing's going to happen to you if that's what you're thinking' Embry says.
'Just when things start to turn out for the better after everything that happens this happens' I say out loud. Embry sigh. The door opens and Jacob comes back in. 'Let's go' He says. I hop down off the table. We leave the hospital and get in the car. Same positions as last time. 'You think it can be because of your Angel gene?' Embry asks, as we're driving down the road.
I bite my lip. 'I don't know' I say. 'But your mom said the pregnancy would be normal' Leah say. Jacob keep quiet. 'She probably didn't see this coming' I say, looking out the window. 'The baby's probably more wolf than you guys put together.' I look at Embry. 'Think about it. This is the first in history that a baby is born from two shapeshifters not only that it has Angel genes.'
'That probably explain the growing fast part' Leah says. 'Yeah, but not the eat your mom to death' I say. Jacob growl. 'Don't joke about that' He growls out. I sigh. 'Look we're all on the edge here, let's just calm down' Leah says. 'Don't tell me to calm down when I just found out that my child is killing my imprint' He yells. I shake my head.
'Pull over, Leah' Embry says. She pulls over. Embry gets out and Jacob get's out too. He closes the door behind him. 'We'll meet you guys at Sam's' Embry says. Together they run off and the woods. A howl is heard. Tears fall out of my eyes. I start crying and Leah just let me.
We pull up to Sam house to find the girls waiting on the porch. Leah get's out then I do. 'Lacie' Bella calls out. Tears falls again. She runs to me and wrap me in a hug. 'It'll be okay' Emily says rubbing my hair. 'Come on, Let's go in the house' Kim says. I walk in the house with them. I look around to see everybody gone. 'Where's the guys?' I ask.
'They thought the howl was the vampire but it was Jacob.' Kim says. I go and sit on the couch. They sit around me. 'How did you guys find out?' 'Collin came back and told us. I'm so sorry Lacie' Bella says. I smile. 'There's nothing to be sorry about, I'm going to have a healthy baby' They smile. 'Even if I have to be a fatty, I'l survive this'
They laugh. 'You think Jacob's going to let you continue the pregnancy even if it kills you?' Emily asks. I sigh. 'He has no choice' 'Lacie' Leah says. 'I'm serious, it's my body and if he can't support me, I will do this by myself without his support' 'He's not going to turn his back on you' Bella says. I look at her. 'I've known him since he was little, he's the most considerate person I know'
I smile at that. 'He called me talking about all the stuff he's going to do for his daughter. He wouldn't shut up about it so I had to hang up on him' Bella says laughing. We laugh. 'He loves her already and he hasn't even met her yet.' I smile. 'Females stick together,right?' I ask. 'Yep, till the end.' Kim says. 'Six girls already' Emily says. 'And one on the way' Leah adds.
'7:9, we're catching up to them' Bella also add. We laugh. 'I heard about the dance' I say changing the topic. 'Me and Jared are going' Kim says. 'Sam's chaperoning' Emily says. 'Paul didn't want to go but I talk him into going' Bella says. We look at Leah. 'I'm staying with the pups to patrol' I shake my head. 'What about you?' Leah asks.
I sigh. 'I doubt Jacob would want me to go now, but it could be fun. I've never been to a dance before or wore a dress or put on make-up' I say. 'You have to go' Kim says excitedly. 'We can put on your make-up and go shopping for your dress' Emily says. 'Y'all already got your dresses?' 'Yep, they went when you was in that coma. The world doesn't revolve around you, Lacie' I narrow my eyes at Leah.
They laugh. I shake my head. The back door opens and you can hear feet. 'God, wolves don't know how to knock' I say. The girls laugh. 'My house, my rules' Sam says, moving to kiss Emily. I look for Jacob. 'He went to his dad's, he went to tell him about' Collin trails off. 'Oh, I didn't think he would tell him now' I say looking down.
'He wanted to be the one to tell his dad, he knows how you don't like to break bad news to people' Quil says. I bite my lip. I lay my head on Leah lap, She play in my hair. 'Are you going to keep it?' Brady asks. Leah and Embry growl at him. 'Sorry, you saw what he talked to th-' 'Brady enough' Sam orders. I raise an eyebrow. 'What are you talking about?' I ask him.
Brady looks away. I narrow my eyes. 'Am I going to have to start beating people with bats to get answers' I say to them. 'He thinks that it may be his genes that's doing this to you' Embry says. 'What?' I ask, sitting up. 'He thinks it's his kids and that you should try again with someone else' Try Again. Someone else. Gag. I put my hand over my mouth and run to the bathroom. I throw up in the toilet.
'Lacie' Leah say, patting my back. I dry heave. 'Here's some water for her.' Emily says. Leah hands me the glass, I drink some but I throw it back up in the toilet. 'She's not taking the water' Leah yells. 'Call Jacob and tell him to get here' Sam orders. I hear running. I keep dry heaving in the toilet. 'Calm down, Lacie' Leah says, rubbing my back.
'Here try some orange juice' Emily says. Leah hands me the glass. I shake my head. 'Lacie, it'll settle down your stomach' Emily says. I look at the glass and push it away. I lay on the bathroom floor. 'Lacie' I hear Jacob yell. 'She's in here' Sam says. Jacob walks in the bathroom and picks me up and holds me. 'She won't drink the orange juice' Leah says.
He takes the glass from her hand. 'Can you leave us alone in here?' Jacob asks. 'Sure' Emily says. They leave and close the door. 'Lacie' He put the glass down. I don't look at him. 'Embry told you' I turn to him. 'Why? Would you say that Jacob, You don't want this baby?' I say to him. 'I do, but not at the risk of your life.' I shake my head. 'You would rather for me to get rid of our daughter who has a beating heart, to have someone elses child' I say.
'You're my imprint, Lacie' 'And she's your daughter' I finishes. 'You told me that didn't want me to put our baby at risk in the battle but here you are asking me to get rid of her because she's threatening my life. I can't believe you, Jacob.' I say. 'What do you expect me to do, Lacie? Sit back and watch as she kills you then turn around and raise her?'
'Yes, Jacob I do. You already loves her so much and yet you find out that she's killing me and you want to throw that love out like it was nothing to you. If you can't support me for this than I will give birth to her on my own and find someone who would raise her right. Is that what you would want Jacob, for our daughter to lose both her parents because her father can't stand to look her and the face because she killed her mother?'
'Lacie' 'No, Jacob I understand you're 16 and this is probably too much for you to handle I can leave and walk away right now. Then you can try with someone else because obviously our genes together is a death trap for me' I say to him. He sigh. 'Do you seriously want me to get rid of our daughter, Jacob? Kill her cause that's what it is Jacob, she has a heartbeat and if you won't fight for her then I will?'
I get up off him. 'Because you would want to get rid or her, she no longer has a father' I say looking at him. 'Lacie' 'No, this is no longer your responsibility' I walk out of the bathroom. I walk in the living room and the pack can't even look at me. 'Do you guys feel the same way?' I ask them. 'I don't' Seth says. 'Thank you Seth, if you need me I will be at the Cullens'
They growl at that. 'Lacie' Leah says. 'I have too, I have to be watched closely that's what Dr. Cullen said.' 'I'll stay with you' Seth says. 'Seth' Leah says. 'Leah, come on it's the Cullens they haven't done anything wrong. Plus I'll be able to watch Lacie and the baby's back' 'Fine, Embry go with them' Sam orders. Embry mouth hangs open.
'Sam, their leeches and plus th-' 'I'll go' Jacob says. I turn around to him. 'You're right, she's my daughter and I don't want to get rid of her. I'll fight for her life and yours.' I run and give him a hug. 'Thank you, Jacob' He kiss me. 'I love, you and our daughter.' I smile. 'I love you too.' 'Aw' The girls say. I narrow my eyes at them. 'What it's sweet and cute?' Kim says.
'Never thought I would see the day that wolves would be staying in a house full of vampires' Jared says, smirking. 'It's only until the baby's born then we can move into our house in La Push.' Jacob says, wrapping his arms around me. 'Did he say how long it would be till she's born?' Collin asks. 'I asked him.' I look at Jacob. 'He said the way she's developing it might be at least three months or less'
My eyes widen. 'What?' 'Yep, she'll be here sooner than we know' 'That means we won't be able to throw Lacie a babyshower' Emily, sadly say. 'How about after I give birth?' I ask. 'Are you sure you're not going to die?' Quil asks not caring. Jacob growls at him. 'Quil, I swear to God. I will seriously kick your ass' I say to him. He smirks. 'I don't think a prego like you can take me down' He confidently says.
Jacob moves me out the way and tackle Quil. Seth pull me to the side to avoid injury. I just shake my head. 'Seth, are you still going?' I ask. He looks at Leah. 'Yeah, he going' Leah says. I hug him. His hand touch my stomach. 'Sorry, I accidentally touched your stomach' He apologizes. 'What?' Jacob growls out. He gets off of Quil. He glare at Seth.
'Really Jacob, possessive already and she's not even born yet' Embry says. 'Nobody touches my imprint stomach except me' He growls out. I roll my eyebrow. 'No dance, huh?' Bella asks changing the topic. I look at Jacob. He shakes his head. 'Nope' I say popping the 'p'. 'Let's have a dance right here' I say. 'What?' Jacob ask. 'Yep, Quil put some slow music on. I want to dance with my man' I say looking at Jacob.
Quil put some music on. 'Jacob, will you have this dance with me?' I ask. 'Shouldn't it be the other way around?' He asks. 'Oh right. Hold on' I turn around and fix my hair. I turn around to see him dancing with Emily. My mouth hangs open. 'What the?' I say out loud. They laugh. I narrow my eyes at them. 'Why don't we have this dance?' Sam asks me.
I take his hand. 'I would love too' We start dancing. I step on his foot. 'Sorry about that Sam. Never danced before' 'Let's try this' He lifts me up and put me on his feet. 'Oh, yeah. Much better' He laughs. 'Thanks Sam' 'For what?' 'I don't know, a lot of things. You're like the big brother I always wanted' I look around to see people dancing.
'You've liven up the pack, I should be thanking you' I look back at him. 'If you haven't been here, ain't no telling how the pack would have turned out. You're also bringing another member into the pack, too bad it ain't a boy but a girl' He say, smiling. I laugh. 'What's the code we live by girls?' I ask them out loud. 'Females stick together' They say at the same time.
The guys laugh. 'See we stick together, Obviously the baby is going to rule over all of us, probably be rotten as crap' I say. 'First pack baby, it comes with that' He says. 'Can we cut in?' Jacob asks. I see him and Emily. 'Sorry, but I'm dancing with my man' I joke. 'Really?' Emily ask. 'Yeah, ain't this Jacob' I say looking at Sam. 'My god, this ain't Jacob' I say.
I jump out of Sam arms and into Jacob's. I look at him. 'Obviously I had too much punch tonight, So dance with me, the real Jacob?' They laugh. 'Come on, Let's dance' He pulls me to a spot. I put my feet on his and we start dancing. 'I'm glad I met you, Jacob.' He smiles. 'You really brought sunshine in my life, when it was dark'
'Jacob, don't believe those words she read those off a fortune she found the other day' Leah says, while she's dancing with Seth. Me and Jacob Laughs. 'I'm glad too, since I've been born I've never when this happy in my life and I'm glad that's it's with you and our daughter' I blink back tears, he wipes them away. 'This ain't the end of our story, and she won't be the only child we have.' I look at him. 'We'll have more later along the way not now but in the future.'
He kiss me. 'I still want to see the future that you saw for us' He says smiling. I smile. 'Look into my eyes Jacob.' I say. He looks into my eyes. I show him the future that I say when he imprinted on me. He smile an even bigger smile. 'That's what you saw?' He asks me. I nod. 'I guess your number of kids were correct?' 'Yeah, it was'
'What did you see, Jacob?' Bella asks dancing with Paul. He answers still looking into my eyes. 'Three boys and a girl.' 'Females stick together my ass' Jared says smirking. 'Shut up, Jared' Kim says. We laugh. 'Did you see her face?' I ask Jacob. 'Yeah, I did and she's beautiful' He says smiling. 'What do you mean?' Bella asks. 'I can't see our children's face, I guess someone doesn't want me to see them until their born'
'Good' I look at Jacob. 'You're a first time mom and that's when you should see them is when their born for the first time' I narrow my eyes at him. 'I shouldn't have shown them to you' 'Too late' He then stick his tongue out at me. I laugh. 'We don't have a name for yet.' I say to Jacob. 'How about Leah?' Leah asks out loud. I laugh.
'Might as well throw her to the wolves with a name like that' Quil says. We laugh. Leah tackles him. I watch as they roll around. 'Sarah' Jacob says. Everybody stop what their doing. 'What is a bad name?' I ask, confused. 'No, its perfect' Bella says. 'Baby Sarah Black' I say it out loud. He smiles. 'I love it' I say. 'How did you come up with a name like that?' I ask, curious. He doesn't say. I look at him.
Still nothing. The baby kick. I put his hand on my stomach. His eyes widen. 'She kicked.' He say happily. Everybody gathers. Leah push him out-of-the-way. My mouth hangs open. 'I wanna feel' She says. She put her hand on my stomach. Sarah kick again. 'She kicked for me' Leah say, jumping up and down. Embry push her out-of-the-way. My mouth hangs open again.
'I wanna feel too' He say, smirking. 'Enough, she's not a toy' Sam says. 'Thank you, Sam' I say fanning myself. 'Lacie, are you hot?' Emily asks. 'Yes, I am' 'I think you're having a hot flash' Bella say. I laugh. 'I'm not old. Old people have hot flashes not young people.' I say boldly. Jacob take off my shirt leaving me in a tank top. 'Hey!' I yell. 'Lacie, you're sweating and is that a baby bump?' I look at my stomach. Wow. Looks like a half a basketball.
'Wow, he wasn't joking when he said Sarah was growing fast' I say smiling and fanning myself. 'Why don't I get you a cold glass of water.' Emily say. 'Not water, Orange Juice' Jacob say. 'Right' Emily walks in the kitchen. 'Do you guys mind backing up especially you wolves, you guys are like a furnace.' I say fanning them away. The girls laugh.
Jacob moves back. 'Not you Jacob, you're my furnace' I say. I start kissing him and reaches down to unzip him. 'Lacie' Sam yells. I stop and cough. I turn around and start blushing. I touch my cheeks. 'Sorry, I got a little carried away.' I say embarrass. 'A little, I wish you had kept going, I've never seen a pregnant woman have sex and I would've loved to see that' Quil says, smirking. I narrow my eyes at him.
Quil, Quil, Quil, You'll never learn. And Lacie's dying because of her daughter? Must not be because of the future Jacob saw. So don't worry, Lacie's going to be alright and she'll be able to delivery Sarah but that doesn't mean the pregnancy is going to be an easy one.
