Sweet tooth

Chapter 1

Edward and Bella were in the top of a tree looking over the view when in the tree next to them a little girl somewhere between the age of ten to twelve years old was there she looked to be light skinned native she had light copper skin and black hair and black eyes. Edward could tell she wasn't human. She didn't smell human and she was far to agile to be human as she suddenly walked on her hands on a thick branch.

Edward asked "what are you doing up here?"

The girl sat on the branch and said "hunting but I am curious about you. You aren't like others I have known are you playing with your human before you bite her. She can't get away even if she was on the ground."

Edward said "I am not going to bite Bella I like her the way she is. You are right I am different I hunt animals. My whole family does."

The girl said "I like you but I have to go I need to hunt."

She jumped out of the tree and disappeared in the forest.

Bella asked "what was that? I mean what is she?"

Edward said "I don't know I have never come across anyone like her before. We should go let the family know about her."

Chapter 2

Bella ran into the ballet studio only to find her mother wasn't there after all it was just an old home video.

James threw her across the room where she cracked her head and he broke her leg then a blur attacked James throwing him across the room he screamed then burst into fire.

The dark haired girl looked at Bella from across the room Bella was certain she was going to attack her when Edward showed up then the girl cocked her head clearly curious and asked "are you going to bite her now I burned the other vampire he was tormenting her. He wasn't playing fair. It isn't nice to play with your food."

Edward picked up Bella and said "I am not going to bite Bella. Thank you for getting rid of James for us. He wasn't interested in Bella as food he wanted to torture her until he killed her."

The girl said "well that is a pointless death. At least if he bit her she would provide a meal."

The others arrived Bella asked "what is your name?"

The girl smiled at Bella and said "I'm Liz it is short for Elizabeth but I like Liz better."

Liz said "I should get going before my sisters find me. They are not nice."

Liz disappeared in thin air before anyone could say anything. Edward and Carlisle took Bella to the hospital.

Chapter 3

Liz tore a newborn off of Carlisle it soon was burning Liz went after as many newborns as she could the wolves didn't know about Liz but she didn't smell like the newborns so they didn't attack her. Liz would attack the newborns biting them then they would burst into flame.

Liz didn't look like a little girl anymore she look to be about 15 When all of the newborns were destroyed and before Liz could disappear again Carlisle said "we would like to talk to you Liz."

Alice said "the Volturi are coming they aren't going to understand about Liz."

Liz said "I have to get back to Lucas but I will see you again Soon."

Liz disappeared.

Chapter 4

When the Cullen's came home Liz was at the house she was watching a baseball game on the TV and she had a cute baby that looked to be about 5 months old he had black curly hair olive complexion cornflower blue eyes and dimples. Carlisle grabbed his doctors bag and left.

Rosalie smiled and asked "who do you have there?"

Liz said "This is Lucas. He's my son you can hold him if you like."

Rosalie picked up the baby he smiled for her showing off his dimples she said "he looks like Emmett."

Liz said "he looks just like his daddy, maybe a little darker. He gets some of his coloring from me. David does look like the big one only with blue eyes and longer hair. Of course David is human and your big one is not."

Edward said "his name is Emmett and the one holding Lucas is Rosalie. The small female is Alice the older female is Esme. The Blond male is Jasper the older one is Carlisle. I'm Edward and the human is Bella."

Bella said "I need to check on Jacob."

Bella left.

Liz said "it is nice meeting you all I'm Liz and my little boy is Lucas."

Edward said "we want to know about you but Carlisle would be upset if you explained without him being here."

Liz said "we can watch the game until he gets home. I like sports."

There was a diaper bag next to the sofa Liz opened it and pulled out a baby blanket and handed it to Rosalie and said "I don't want him to get cold."

Rosalie wrapped the blanket around the baby he soon feel asleep in her arms.

Rosalie hadn't been so content in a long time. Liz fell asleep on the sofa watching the game.

They woke Liz up when Carlisle came home.

He asked "can you tell us now what you are?"

Liz stretched and said "yes my father is a vampire and my mother was a human. I have three half sisters and one half brother. Just like my sisters I am named after my mother. I have run away from them they want to make Lucas a monster but he isn't like them he is just a baby. He drinks milk not blood or venom. I drink blood and venom when I bite a vampire they burst into flame. Lucas has inherited my ageing it is about half the speed I age he is 6 weeks old. Venom is sweet I don't get much from it but it tastes good. I have a bit of a sweet tooth. I try not to hunt humans if I can help it I usually hunt animals. But it isn't always easy. I'm beat I haven't had any real rest in weeks but if I stay in one place my sisters will find me."

Esme said "you can stay with us we can protect you from your sisters."

Carlisle said "the least you can do is spend the night you can figure things out in the morning."

Esme said "you can sleep in our room. I'll show you the way."

Liz went to Rosalie she asked "do you want to keep him?"

Rosalie said "if you don't mind."

Liz shook her head and said "there are diapers and formula in the bag when he wakes up. Take care of him for me."

Liz followed Esme up to her room.

Liz fell asleep.

The next morning Liz was gone and she left a note. "I could see right away that Rosalie loves Lucas and he really does look just like Emmett. Please keep him safe. If I keep him my sisters will find him and take him from me. Teach him to be a good boy. I have to leave or my sisters will find me. Love him for me. Liz."

Rosalie asked unbelieving "she gave me her son?"

Alice said "it looks that way."

Emmett said "I hope she comes back some day so I can thank her."

Rosalie said "we have a baby."

Esme said "we are going to need baby supplies what is in that bag isn't going to last long."

Chapter 5

Liz was hunting the hunter he wasn't aware he was being hunted he was busy hunting the human. Liz was just about ready to pounce when two people she knew well showed up it was Rosalie and Emmett and they were talking to the vampire.

Emmett said "Garrett Carlisle needs your help."

Liz jumped from the roof top landing next to Garrett and asked worried "What is wrong?"

Liz looked to be nearly 18 Rosalie said "it is complicated but you might be of great help. We are still in Forks."

Liz asked "is Garrett a friend of yours?"

Emmett said "yes."

Liz said "I will have to find dessert else where then I will be on my way."

Liz disappeared Garrett asked "what was that?"

Rosalie said "her name is Liz and she is different."

Chapter 6

Carlisle picked up his phone it was Charlie Swan he answered "Charlie I'm afraid now isn't a good time for a visit we have a lot of company I can ask Bella if she can bring Nessie to visit you."

Charlie said "actually I'm not calling about visiting I have a situation at the station. There is a girl here claiming to be your daughter my deputy pulled her over doing 80 in a 45 mile an hour zone she didn't have any ID but she says her name is Elizabeth Cullen. I have never seen her before."

Carlisle said "I'll be right there."

Carlisle came in the police station Liz was sitting next to Charlie's desk she smiled when she saw him and said "hey Doc tell this guy that I'm telling the truth I am so your daughter."

Carlisle said "Charlie she is in fact my daughter she was supposed to be here nearly a week ago. I knew letting her get here on her own was a mistake. Liz where is your drivers license?"

Liz said "I lost it about the same time I borrowed David's bike."

Carlisle asked "does David know you borrowed his bike?"

Liz said "He does by now."

Charlie said "borrowing without permission is stealing and stealing a motorcycle is grand theft auto."

Liz said "lets not all jump to conclusions now if David knew I borrowed his bike he would have given me permission. David would do anything for me."

Carlisle asked "do you have to charge her. Grand theft Auto is a hefty charge for someone so young."

Charlie said "I can charge her with speeding and driving without a license and I will impound the bike until you can contact David to pick it up. I don't suppose I have to charge her with Grand theft auto."

Liz smiled and said "you know you are great."

Charlie said "thanks but let this be a warning I'm not going to be easy on you next time. And I am sure there will be a next time."

Carlisle said "there wont be. Will there Liz?"

Liz said "yeah I mean no of course not."

Carlisle drove Liz to the house Liz saw for herself the reason behind everyone being gathered the little bronze haired girl with brown eyes and pale skin she was beautiful she was a hybrid half human and half vampire Edward and Bella's daughter she was playing with a dark haired little boy with blue eyes and olive colored skin about half her age.

Liz stopped to look at the two of them Esme went to her and embraced her Liz said "he has grown up so much. Is he still a good boy?"

Esme said "yes a very good boy. Rosalie and Emmett are truly his parents. They love him very much. We all do. There has been no sign of your sisters."

Liz said "good it has been worth it then. Now what is the trouble."

Bella said "it is our daughter Renesmee the Volturi believe she is an immortal child."

Edward said "the Volturi are coming to destroy her. We are gathered our friends to witness that she is not immortal. The testimony of a grown or at least nearly grown hybrid would be helpful."

Liz said "until they learn that I hunt vampires for their venom. They will promptly want me dead after that. Me and my sweet tooth."

Carlisle asked "how long has it been since you hunted for Venom?"

Liz said "it has been awhile it seems the older I get the better my control it. I have another year until I reach maturity. None of my siblings craved venom."

Emmett said "Neither does Nessie. Or Lucas. Lucas favors meat but eats human food he has a healthy appetite."

Liz smiled and said "he always did."

A native young man went up to Liz and said "you are different then the others."

Bella said "Jake this is Liz, Lucas's mother."

Rosalie frown and Liz said "No I'm not. Not anymore. I gave him up Rosalie is his mother now."

Jacob asked "why did you give him up?"

Liz said "he wasn't safe with me. My sisters are after me they want to take Lucas away from me. I wouldn't have returned but I heard my help was needed here. I could see Rosalie fell in love with him right away and he does look like Emmett they would be good parents to him. The Cullen's would keep him safe."

Edward said "you didn't have to leave we could keep you both safe. Your sisters don't stand a chance against us. Emmett could scare all three of them away."

Liz smiled and said "I bet he would like to do that. Scaring my sisters away."

Emmett said "no one is taking my son away from me."

Nessie went to Jacob he picked her up and she reached for Liz she put her hand on her cheek Liz smiled as the images entered her mind.

Nessie lowered her hand and Liz said "Thank you Nessie that was very special. It seems Jacob has been close to you from the beginning."

Jacob smiled and said "she is my special girl. It is complicated to explain it is a wolf thing."

Liz said "she likes you very much. You are in her memories a lot. She happens to like her little cousin very much too. I am happy to know that."

Esme said "Nessie and Lucas are best friends."

Liz said "I'm glad to hear it."

Esme said "let me introduce you to everyone. No biting our guests."

Liz smirked and said "yes ma'am."

Esme introduced Liz to everyone and Liz found Alice and Jasper gone so she used their bed to sleep in. They had turned Edward's old room into a room for Lucas now that they felt he was too big to sleep in their arms anymore.

Chapter 7

At Christmas Bella, Edward, Nessie and Jacob were going to Charlie's Jacob convinced Liz to come with them as a break to get away from the scent of so many vampires her thirst for venom was getting rather strong.

Charlie and his guests were surprised that Liz was with the others. The wolves all looked at her Leah asked "what are you doing here?"

Jacob said "Calm down Leah I invited her. She needed to get away from the others."

Sue asked "you invited one of the Cullen's guest for Christmas?"

Jacob said "Liz isn't a guest she is the Cullen's newest daughter she is Lucas's biological mother."

Charlie asked "is that so. The Cullen's are adopting you now."

Liz said "they are fostering me. I will probably age up before they can adopt me. But Rosalie and Emmett adopted Lucas. He looks a lot like Emmett but then so does David, Lucas's father."

Emily asked "Why did you give Lucas up for adoption."

Liz said "I wasn't in a position that I could take care of him the way he deserved to be taken cared of. I am happy to see how much Rosalie and Emmett love Lucas. They are really his mom and dad and they kept his name. He was young enough they didn't have to do that."

Embry asked "so what is your real last name other then Cullen of course."

Liz said "it is Uley. I'm named after my mother Elizabeth Uley. I named Lucas after her father. Lucas Uley."

Sue asked shocked "You are Lucas's granddaughter? That is impossible."

Edward said "Liz has the same aging issue as Renesmee. How old are you Liz, the truth."

Liz said "Chief Swan will be angry if I say."

Charlie said "I promise not to be angry."

Liz said "alright I'm almost 6 years old."

Charlie asked "what! You were driving a motorcycle and you are only 6 years old?"

Liz shrugged and said "I told you that you would be mad. I look almost 18."

Charlie said "you had a baby and you are almost 6?"

Liz said "I only carried Lucas for a few months. He ages at half the rate I do. Nessie and I age at the same rate."

Quil asked "so we should expect Nessie to be like you at 6 years old."

Liz said "she will probably have better manners then me but yes she will be about the same development as I am now."

Liz suddenly and apparently for no reason burst out of herself and turned into a small gray wolf with dark gray markings.

Bella asked "what triggered that?"

Jacob said "it is probably just the right timing. Liz calm down and you will be about to change back into yourself."

Leah said "try deep breathing."

Liz whimpered and growled Edward said "you turned into a wolf. It is part of the Uley blood line. I don't know why it didn't happen before now Jacob is probably right it was just the right time."

Leah said "slow your breathing down. Inhale deeply hold it then exhale and repeat. Envision a peaceful beach there is no one there. That is the kind of thing that works for me."

Liz turned back into herself but she was nude. Bella said "I think there might be some clothes left in my room, come with me Liz."

Bella showed Liz upstairs to her old room it turned out there was actually a lot of clothes left she figured Alice would have replaced her wardrobe so she had left most of her clothes behind.

She found something appropriate for Liz who got dressed then said "Can I be any more of a freak I'm half vampire and now part werewolf too. What is that smell it is delicious. Better then venom and almost as good as blood."

Bella said "maybe it is the food now that you are a wolf maybe you can eat food. Lets go down and find out."

Everyone was ready for the meal Liz tried a little of everything she didn't like veggies but she loved the meat the potatoes and stuffing were alright but she loved the pie.

Charlie said "it is a relief to see one Cullen that has an appetite."

Liz said "I had never tried Turkey before it was delicious."

Charlie said "I am glad you liked it."

Liz left with Edward Bella and Nessie. Jacob took his bike he was going to spend the night at home with his dad and sister.

Chapter 8

The next day Jacob took Liz to Emily's to meet the rest of the wolves.

Liz asked "So am I allowed on the Res or not. Do I follow the Cullen's treaty or something else. I'm a wolf now but I think I still have the thirst. I'm still half vampire."

Jared said "it doesn't seem right that she has free rein on our land if she is half cold one."

Seth said "but it doesn't seem right either that we ban her from our land completely she is wolf too."

Jacob said "why don't we have a new treaty just for Liz. She can come on our land but she can't hunt on it and she can't kill any humans. If possible if you are going to come on our lands come with someone."

Liz said "that works for me. My stomach is rumbling."

Emily said "You are probably hungry I need to do some grocery shopping does anyone want to come with me."

Liz said "I will it will give me a better idea what kind of food is good to eat."

Emily and Liz left for the grocery store Liz paid attention what Emily bought when they got to the register Liz was flirting with the cashier his name was Steve and Liz managed to make a date with him. That night.

On the way back to Emily's she said "you know you are incorrigible. What are you going to do when he finds out you are only 6."

Liz said "he won't find out he is just a guy to have fun with it is nothing serious. I will have a good time and that is it."

Emily said "if you are sure. Just be careful."

Liz said "don't worry I don't take guys seriously. They are only around to have fun with."

They got back to the house and put the groceries away and Emily made sandwiches for everyone. Then Jacob and Liz returned to the Cullen's.

Chapter 9

That evening Liz "borrowed" Jasper motorcycle she picked up Steve and they went to the city to a dance club where the bouncer knew Liz and let them in. They had a good time then they went to an all night diner.

Liz noticed a man sitting at the counter with only a cup of coffee he was dressed shabbily and he smelled he was clearly homeless.

Liz asked their waitress "who is that man?"

The waitress said "that is just Thomas he comes here every night to get out of the cold he doesn't cause any trouble. We give free refills on coffee."

Liz asked "do you think he would appreciate a nice hot meal on me?"

The Waitress smiled and said "I will ask him what he wants."

Liz said "make it clear it can be anything on the menu."

The waitress said "I will, you are a nice girl."

The waitress left to fill their order then went to Thomas.

Steve said "that was kind of you."

Liz smiled and said "it doesn't cost much to pay for another meal and I'm sure Thomas appreciates to have his belly full.

Thomas came to their table after he was done to thank them.

Liz scooted over and said "sit down so we can talk. How did you find yourself in this situation. I bet you didn't plan on being like this."

Thomas sat down and told his story he had his own business he was a contractor then times turned hard he lost is business and his wife left him he lost his house he had tried to find work but it seemed no one was hiring.

Liz asked "if you could get into a computer training program that has room and board it is an 18 month long program would you be interested? I know someone the program starts at the first of the year. I can call her right now."

Thomas asked "are you sure it isn't too late."

Liz said "I'm sure, she is a night owl. It can't hurt to try."

Thomas said "alright but I know nothing about computers."

Liz said "the program is designed for beginners."

Liz pulled out her phone and dialed a few minutes later Liz said "Marge I know it is late, it is Liz I have a man here who would be a prefect candidate for your computer program. We are at the Diner on first. You can that is great. We all will have pie when you get here. His name is Thomas."

Liz hung up and smiled and said "Marge will be here in a few minutes the center isn't far away. She will have all of the information you will need."

When Marge came in she sat down next to Steve she had a folder of papers that needed filling out Liz ordered Apple pies all around after about an hour all of the paperwork was filled out and Thomas left with Marge filled with Hope for his future.

Steve said "you are amazing."

Liz said "I'm also too tired to make it home tonight are you against spending the night with me."

Steve said "I would love it."

Liz drove to a hotel when they entered the room Liz jumped on Steve and had her way with him and they fell asleep.

Steve woke up the next morning to Liz's phone ringing he answered it "Hello this is Liz's phone."

It was a man on the other line he said "where is Liz? This is important this is her father I need to talk to her."

Steve shook Liz she smiled at him and said "Happy birthday to me."

Steve said "you have a call he says he is your dad."

Liz frowned and took the phone and said "Hello, oh Doc hi what do you mean. Please say it is Jennifer. I will be there as soon as I can."

Liz hung up and said "we have to get home immediately."

Steve asked "is everything alright."

Liz said "my sisters are trying to take custody of my son. I gave him up for adoption and they are trying to take him from the people that adopted him."

Steve asked "you have a son."

Liz said "he isn't really mine anymore and he doesn't know who I am to him but I will be damned if my sisters take him away from his adopted family."

Liz and Steve got dressed and Liz drove like a bat out of hell she dropped Steve off at his house then she went to the Cullen's Liz left the bike out front and ran in the house.

Chapter 10

The Cullen's minus Esme had a brunette young woman cornered Liz went to them and address her saying "Jennifer what are you doing here?"

Jennifer said "we all have been looking for you and your son Elizabeth. We are a family we belong together."

Liz said "you don't want me to be a family you want me to be a monster and you want to turn Lucas into a monster. Well I don't have Lucas anymore I gave him up for adoption. He doesn't even know who I am. He loves his family and they love him. He can be an innocent little boy without anyone trying to turn him into a monster."

Jennifer said "You need to let what happened in Indonesia go that is ancient history now. Nothing you can say or do can change it."

Liz said "Now you sound like Maysun. Maybe you can brush off the destruction of an entire village but I can't. He made me destroy that child not you or our sisters I wasn't much older then the child herself."

Emmett asked "what are you talking about Liz?"

Liz said "our father, though he doesn't do it nearly as often as he used to is still creating hybrids. The girls are not venomous but the boys are. Awhile back a brother was born in Indonesia he managed to bite but not kill his 3-year-old cousin. 5 days later the girl woke as an immortal Joham brought me with him to meet my new brother what we found was the entire village destroyed and the immortal child sitting innocently surrounded by dead bodies Joham made me kill her using my special bite."

Jennifer said "she was an immortal child it had to be done they can't be taught Elizabeth she would have never learned control and we would have gotten the attention of the Volturi. I hear these friends of yours have done just that."

Liz said "you could help them if you wanted. A mature hybrid could be of great help. I'm afraid I'm no longer the help I might have been. You see it turns out you aren't my only family. I found my mothers family and they aren't human either."

Jacob said "we are cousins."

Jennifer said "they aren't like you like we are. You need to tell me where the boy is no human family will understand him."

Liz said "I never said they were human. They are more then capable of protecting him from you and the others. The Cullen's are my family now I don't need you and the others. I won't kill innocent children anymore."

Jennifer said "if father comes he won't have my patience. Elizabeth these people are not your family. You need to be with your sisters we can protect you from your own weaknesses."

Liz said "you need to leave before I get angry. You won't like it when I'm angry."

Jennifer said "don't threaten me I'm your elder sister you don't want me to get Serena involved do you. Father sent me and Maysun out looking for you he wants you to come home."

Liz said "some families you are born into other families you choose to belong to. I'm a Cullen now. Leave now."

Jennifer said "I'm not leaving without you even if I have to force you to leave. You have a year yet before you come of age. I can take you."

Liz changed into her wolf and growled at Jennifer who shouted "what the hell?"

Edward said "she told you she isn't human on her mothers side."

Jacob turned into his wolf and growled at Liz who ran out of the house Jacob ran after her.

Carlisle said "there is a recessive gene among some of the families in the Quileute tribe that given the right situation they can change into wolves. Liz's grandfather was among one of those bloodlines. Liz inherited it from her mother. It only happened two days ago."

Bella said "we really do feel she is part of our family. We will take care of her."

Rosalie said "She is our sister and we won't let you take her away from us if she doesn't want to leave and she has made that pretty clear."

Emmett said "I think it is time you should leave."

Jennifer could see she wasn't going to get any help from the Cullen's convincing Liz to come with her so she left.

Chapter 11

Liz came back and got dressed then went to Bella and Edward's cottage where Esme was watching Lucas and Nessie while they napped.

Liz watched the children sleeping Rosalie came in Liz whispered "I would kill to keep him safe."

Rosalie softly said "he will always have two mothers to protect him."

Liz said "I don't deserve to be called his mother I gave him up."

Rosalie said "You knew I would love him and we would be able to protect him. You gave me the greatest gift anyone could give me. You made me a mother. It is what I always wanted more then anything and he isn't human so it doesn't break our laws."

Liz asked "and Emmett loves him too, even though he isn't his child by blood?"

Rosalie said "yes Emmett loves him too."

Liz smiled and said "good a boy needs a father. Today is my birthday."

Rosalie said "Happy birthday you are officially part of our family. How old are you?"

Liz said "the equivalent of an 18 year old. I'm 6 years old. One more year and I will reach maturity. I will stop aging like the others."

Rosalie said "when this whole mess is over we'll have to throw a party for you. Hopefully Alice and Jasper will be back by then. No one can throw a party like Alice. If we survive it."

Liz said "we have to think positive they will find out Nessie isn't immortal then they will leave without a fight."

Rosalie asked "are you afraid of a fight."

Liz said "with the Volturi yes I am I have heard stories about how strong they are Joham might be a terrible person but he made sure we each understood the laws so the Volturi would never find out about us. He knew that if they knew about us there is a good chance they would kill us. Especially me with my thirst for venom and the way my bite sets vampires on fire. They surely would not let me live."

Rosalie said "it isn't your fault that your bite does that. And that is unique to you not all hybrids have that feature."

Liz said "I know but do you really think they would let any hybrid live if they knew the possibility of being like me. I am going to join the wolves when the Volturi come I don't have much control over my wolf to begin with the likelihood that I would lose control when they show up is pretty great anyway. What are you going to do with Lucas when they show up."

Rosalie said "Jacob arranged it with Emily Young to look after him for a few days. He will bring him to her house on the Evening of the 29th. Then he will pick him up when everything is over. We have all of the paperwork set up if things go badly. But like you said we are thinking positively. He will just spend a few days with Emily and have a good time before coming home. So you think your sisters will come back."

Liz said "it is hard to say Jennifer is the most understanding so she might not tell the others that she found me but Joham probably wont give up looking for me and Serena is a lot like him Maysun can be stubborn and she doesn't like giving up. But you are my family now I'm not going to leave with them if they do come and I am never going to let them take Lucas. You and Emmett are his parents now. Nothing is going to change that."

Rosalie said "he is my son. Thank you for him. I can't stop thanking you for him."

Liz said "I'm just glad that you can love him like your own. He is a special little guy."

Rosalie said "yes he is."

Liz returned to the house Bella asked "are you alright?"

Liz said "yeah it is never easy seeing my sisters but Jennifer is the easiest to deal with. Except maybe for Nahual, my brother but he doesn't live with the rest of the family. He lives with his aunt who is immortal. He doesn't like Joham, our father any more then I do. It is hard to say how many more siblings we would have had if Joham took care of the women he impregnated because he doesn't most die before the baby can be born."

Carlisle said "they are your family."

Liz shook her head and said "No you are my family now. They are just the ones that raised me."

Chapter 12

Liz called Steve he had to work that night but the next day he was up for a date. They would stay at his house. Liz brought some pizza and they had sex again. Steve made pancakes for Liz from breakfast. They were very good.

Liz said "you are a very good cook have you ever thought about doing it professionally."

Steve said "it never got past thinking about it. I would love to own my own restaurant."

Liz said "what about going to Culinary school."

Steve said "there is no way I could afford that."

Liz said "of course there is we can find you a scholarship or Grant or something. Do you have a computer and internet access?"

Steve said "Yeah. Why?"

Liz said "I will help you find something that will work."

After they ate Liz and Steve got on his computer and in no time at all Liz found a couple grants that Steve would qualify for.

Liz said "see all you have to do is find a culinary school to enroll in these grants will pay for everything."

Liz printed out the applications so Steve could fill them out at his own time.

Liz said "I'm going to be pretty busy with my family for the next week or so we have a lot of company over but I would love to have you over when they all leave to meet everyone. Rosalie said they will have a late birthday party for me. I would like it if you would be there."

Steve said "it sounds fun."

Liz returned to the house and she helped Bella practice fighting Liz had her own style that none of the others had seen before but always seemed to work of Liz. Of course all she had to do was bite and the vampire would burst in flame she didn't do that with Bella.

Chapter 13

The evening of the 29th everyone went hunting Liz still craved blood so she went hunting with the Cullen's and Denali. Jacob took Lucas to Emily's with several days worth of clothes and some toys and a bag full of money and paperwork just in case things went bad.

After everyone went hunting and the wolves ate a big meal they all met in the clearing to wait for the Volturi.

Liz as planned stayed with the wolves. The Volturi and their witnesses arrived mid morning on the 31st.

Liz not listening to any warning ran at the witnesses and changed into herself about half way to them she jumped on one of them who caught her and kissed her then carried her back over to the Cullen's side. He was a newborn.

He laughed and said "You learned a new trick Liz."

Liz said "it turns out I'm related to the wolves. I will introduced you when the Volturi leave."

Liz and her friend waited patiently while Aro talked with Carlisle and Edward things got a little stressed when Caius destroyed Irina for bearing false witness.

Aro tried to convince everyone that Nessie would become dangerous and not able to keep their secret but Alice and Jasper showed up with Nahual to witness that Nessie would be no danger he told them about Joham and the sisters and he asked them not to kill the sisters seeing as they were innocent.

Aro finally seeing there was no use for them to be there left the Volturi and their witnesses left with him.

Liz and the newborn went over to the Cullen's where Nahual was.

He said "are you up to no good again Elizabeth."

Liz smirked and said "I don't know what you are talking about. Everyone this is David. David this is everyone. My brother Nahual and his aunt Huilen. The Cullen's Carlisle, Esme, Emmett and Rosalie, Edward, Bella, Alice and Jasper. Of course Renesmee we all call her Nessie. It turns out I am related to the wolves they are my cousins on my mothers side of course. Everyone David is Lucas's father only he was human at the time of conception. David Rosalie and Emmett adopted Lucas. He is very happy with them. He doesn't really understand yet about being adopted. So when did you become immortal?"

David said "it has been a few months. I was hoping I would find you here."

Chapter 14

They all went back to the Cullen's home and Jacob went to get Lucas David was pleased to meet his son and very happy that Emmett and Rosalie were good parents to him. After a few days he left.

Liz let the family know about Steve and Alice was going to plan a great party for Liz.

The Cullen's turned the study in a bedroom for Liz in about two days. They got her set up to go to school at the tribal school and by the weekend Alice had a party set up.

Not the whole pack showed up but a few of them did. It surprised Liz that Leah, Sam and Emily showed up for the party and the entirety of Jacob's pack as well as Sue and Charlie.

Steve was amazed at the beauty of the Cullen's and wolves and the Cullen's home. They all seemed to like him.

The Cullen's bought Liz a silver 2007 hard top mustang California special Convertible.

Charlie said "just remember to keep it to the speed limits."

Liz chuckled and said "don't worry I will."

Charlie asked "Have you decided where you are going to college in the fall."

Liz said "I haven't but I have applied to a few. I am still waiting to hear back from them."

Sue asked "where have you applied to?"

Liz said "they are all good schools for different reasons. I have applied to Harvard, Oxford, Texas A , Alaska, Florida, C.Q.M., Julliard, Toshira and UC Davis. Like I said they are all good schools for different reasons."

Carlisle said "they are vastly different in what they teach and spread throughout the world. Liz what do you want to study?"

Liz smiled and said "Everything. I just don't know what I should begin with. Art, Music, technology, medicine, Science, religion, Sports, literature, Astronomy. I just don't know once I decide it will be easier to know what school to choose. I have been leaning toward Toshira and Juilliard more then the others."

Steve asked "what do they teach?"

Liz said "Toshira is the best for technology and is located in Japan and Juilliard is the best performing arts and is located in New York. Simply to be accepted to them is a great honor. Oxford and C.Q.M. are in Great Britain they are rather hard to get in as a foreigner."

Leah asked "What is C.Q.M.?"

Liz said "College of Queen Mary it is in Scotland."

Emmett said "all of the colleges are special for one reason or another except Florida. Why are you considering that?"

Liz said "Florida is the biggest party school in the US."

Sue said "well you can check that off your list. You are not going there."

Liz smiled and asked "are you going to stop me?"

Sue smiled back at her and said "Yes I am. I am your aunt and I am not going to let you waste your time, money, and safety just to go party for the next 4 years."

Liz hugged her and said "thank you for careing about me."

Sue hugged her back and said "we are family and someone has to look out for you."

Liz asked "Why doesn't Leah come with me once I decide. She is smart enough and I'm sure if we search hard enough we can find a scholarship or grant for her. She is native, female and the daughter of a veteran there is bound to be something she qualifies for and we can keep an eye on each other."

Leah said "you are crazy I could never get into any of those schools you have to be a genius or super talented and rich."

Liz said "You are talented and smart and we can figure something out about the money. I know you want to get out of here this would be the perfect opportunity. Sam and Emily will get married this summer then you can go off to school. As for our little anger issues I think Meditation and Yoga could help a lot. Have you ever tried Tie Chi it is kind of a combination of both. It is also a good way to stretch out before dancing."

Steve said "Liz I think Juilliard would be best for you but probably not for Leah. What is it you want to study Leah?"

Liz asked "Yeah Leah if Money wasn't an issue what would you want to do?"

Leah shook her head and said "this is stupid what is the use of talking about it if it isn't going to happen?"

Liz said "it might happen you never know. So when you grow up what do you want to be."

Leah said "fine I want to be a lawyer."

Liz smiled and said "that is awesome and absolutely perfect. Columbia has a great law program and it is in New York too. The 4 of us could get a place together."

Leah asked "What do you mean the 4 of us? Who else is coming?"

Liz said "don't worry they won't take up to much space."

Edward laughed and said "Liz I think you should tell them."

Liz said "well Steve will be starting Culinary school in New York this fall so he will be staying with us."

Leah said "that is only 3 who will be the 4th? Are they male or female?"

Liz said "yes. One or the other or it could be both most likely not but it could be. I'm afraid it is too early to tell we will have to wait to find out."

Rosalie giggled and said "your pregnant."

Liz said "I think so. I'm late."

Leah frowned and said "Liz that isn't why you are late it is connected to our anger problem."

Liz asked "are you sure. I was kind of looking forward to it I know it isn't the best timing but maybe I could keep it this time. It was rather hard to give up the last one but it had to be done and I don't regret it but I was hoping I could keep this baby."

Nessie asked "you have a baby?"

Liz said "I did but I gave him to two wonderful people who couldn't have a baby of their own now they all love each other very much. Maybe when he gets a little older they will tell him how he became their son and that he has two mothers that love him more then anything even more then grizzly bears. But right now he is too little to understand."

Rosalie said "yes when he gets a little older he will be told."

Carlisle said "Liz we can find out for certain if you are pregnant or if you have the same problem as Leah with a simple test."

Liz sighed and said "alright just keep your needles away from Steve."

Carlisle said "if Steve would like to give me a sample that is up to him but I think we should find out whether or not you are pregnant."

Steve said "I hate to ask this Liz but if you are pregnant who is the father?"

Liz said "you are I'm only a few days late."

Steve asked "you aren't angry I asked."

Liz said "of course not we haven't been together very long and I did have sex with you on our first date for all you know I could be that way with everyone. I just like you a lot. The first time we met I had to get to know you and be with you."

Steve said "I don't know what you see in me but I am happy you do."

Liz said "How could I not you are amazing and there are a lot of things I want to tell you about but I don't want to rush things and scare you away. But I will tell you this I want to be with you forever and forever is longer then you think."

Carlisle said "Liz now is not the right time for this conversation come to my office so I can test you."

Carlisle and Liz went to his office once the door was shut he asked "Do you really want to be with him forever?"

Liz said "yes I do but I won't ask you to change him unless he wants it done once I explain everything to him. As far as I know he will run as far and fast from me as he can. To humans we are monsters after all. Now lets find out if I have a bun cooking or not. If I do that makes me different in one more way. Is it true Leah can't get pregnant?"

Carlisle said "from what I know about the wolves then yes as long as she keeps changing into her wolf. Most likely when she stops she will be able to, once she starts aging again."

Carlisle took a blood sample and urine test both came back positive.

Carlisle said "congratulations but you do know Steve isn't going to understand how you will be able to give birth to a full term baby in two months."

Liz said "I guess I'm going to have to tell him about us earlier then I thought. But I can't do it while Charlie is here he doesn't really know about immortals."

Carlisle said "we can do it together."

Liz said "I don't think he is going to buy the we are different or special without further explanation."

Carlisle said "lets tell everyone the good news."

They left the office and returned to the living room.

Liz said "well Leah you are wrong we aren't exactly the same because I am pregnant and according to Carlisle you will be able to get pregnant too later."

Liz went to Steve and said "You are going to become a father. I think there are some things I need to tell you about me and my family. They are going to be hard to believe but I am going to need you to keep an open mind. I am not like anyone you have known before. In fact I am not like anyone that has ever existed before. I am mostly like Nessie and of course Lucas but even they aren't completely like me. Nessie is like my biological half siblings and Lucas's biological father is normal but I am different then they are because of my biological grandfather. He was a Uley one of the Quileute's. That makes me a little different."

Steve said "Liz it doesn't matter to me what your ancestry is you are the most amazing person I have ever met."

Liz said "shut up and let me finish I'm not trying to give you a history lesson I'm trying to explain a medical issue to you. One that is genetic. You see Nessie and Lucas how old do you think they are?"

Steve looked at the little kids and said "I don't know 2 and 4 maybe."

Liz said "Not even close Lucas is 8 months and Nessie is 4 months. I age the same rate as Nessie does and Lucas ages at twice our rate. Most likely this baby will age at the same rate Lucas does. I carried him for two months before giving birth. Bella like my mother and my siblings mothers carried their babies for one month. By the end of February I will give birth to this baby."

Steve said "you aren't 18."

Liz said "no I'm 6 developmentally I'm 18. I have one more year before I reach maturity and stop aging like my siblings. I will look about 20. There is one more thing that makes me different and maybe it would be best to show you."

Liz made sure she had enough room then she changed into her wolf. Steve just stared for a moment.

Jacob said "Liz isn't the only one that can change into a wolf several of us Quileute's can but she is the only one with the same ageing problem as Nessie and Lucas.

Steve at last said "you are beautiful."

Liz wagged her tail Leah said "she is a stunted little runt that is stubborn and a little freak."

Jacob said "Liz and Leah are the only girls that can change and Liz is the smallest. There is something that sometimes happens with wolves called imprinting when a wolf first sees someone they can imprint it is something like true love only much stronger. It is supposed to be rare but so far 6 of us have imprinted."

Bella said "I thought there was only 5. Sam, Jared, Quil, Paul and You."

Jacob said "and Liz. How else do you explain her instant attraction to Steve. No offense man but you are hardly the hottest guy in the room.

Liz growled at Jacob Jasper said "Liz control yourself you don't want to hurt anyone."

Steve said "It is alright Liz I know I'm not the best looking guy here."

Liz rubbed her head against him and whimpered Edward said "she thinks you are. She is madly in love with you."

Steve said "I'm pretty mad for her myself. But there is something she said that I think I must have misunderstood."

Carlisle asked "What was that?"

Steve said "well Liz said in about a year she is going to stop aging forever and earlier she said she wanted to be with me forever and that forever was longer then I knew. What did she mean by that?"

Everyone looked around at everyone Charlie stood up and said "I think it is time that I should leave. Happy birthday Liz and congratulations on the baby."

Charlie left.

Liz changed into herself and said "thanks Charlie."

Liz sat on Steve's lap and Esme covered Liz's naked body with a blanket.

Steve asked "why did he leave?"

Bella said "Because Charlie doesn't want to know anymore then he has to know about us. Everything Liz already told you he knew about or had a pretty good idea about. But what Liz is about to tell you he doesn't know and doesn't want to know."

Liz said "When I said I won't age forever I meant just that I won't get any older and unless I'm killed I will never die. I will become immortal. Nessie will as well once she reaches maturity. We aren't sure about Lucas he most likely will just live a very long life. You see the Quileute's are shapeshifters it is genetic a recessive gene of sorts that activates when people like the Cullen's and my biological father enter the area. In the past the packs have been small only about 3 at a time the Black, Uley and Ateara blood lines. The descendants of the original wolf shapeshifter. As long as they change they don't age. But when they stop changing they go back to aging again. The Cullen's and the others like them are different you see when they are changed they stop aging forever. That is why they look different ages. Carlisle is the eldest he was changed in the 1600's at the age of 23. Through the years he changed Esme, Edward, Rosalie and Emmett. Alice and Jasper joined the family together already changed. When Bella gave birth to Nessie Edward changed her to save her life. I meant it when I said I want to be with you forever but if you don't want to no one will make you change. The change is painful, very painful and the pain is only the beginning of a life time of discipline and control. We are different from others we keep a very strict diet well there is one other family like us we call them cousins. All others see things different then the way we do. But if you wanted to be with me forever we would teach you to control yourself. Well that is what I meant when I said forever."

Edward answered an unspoken question "Don't worry if it comes to that we will take care of it."

Liz said "thank you."

Jacob said "The treaty, we made an exception for Bella to save her life you can't bite Steve there is nothing wrong with him."

Liz said "Jake you are being selfish when Nessie reaches maturity you will be with her forever. Everyone else has a mate all of the other wolves are going to age and die. If Steve doesn't change I will be forces to watch him grow old and die then I will go to the Volturi."

Bella said "No Liz don't even think that."

Liz asked "what would you have me do Bella live my life like Marcus here but not here in a constant state of depression. Or would it be better to go the route of Taha Aki who for all we know is still out there somewhere living as a wolf forever mourning his third wife his true love. The choice is Steve's to make. You all have the original treaty to live by and when my wolf woke Jake made a treaty with me. I could go on the res to be with the pack but no hunting on Quileute land and no killing humans. That was the exact wording of our treaty. Never once did it mention not biting any humans."

Sam said "she is right those were your exact words you said Kill not Bite."

Jacob said "that is because she doesn't have venom. Only male hybrids have venom. It would take a full vampire or male hybrid to change a human. Lucas is only a vampire and he doesn't have venom. All the others fall under the original treaty. So they can't bite them."

Steve hadn't said a word until now "you are all vampires and werewolves and Liz you want me to become a vampire so we can be together forever."

Liz said "Yes Steve this isn't an ultimatum for us to be together if you don't want to change that is just fine. We will have a long happy life together I just wanted you to know the truth and what your options are. But please take your time and think it over it is a very important decision."

Liz got up so Steve could leave she didn't let it show in her face but she could feel through her gift of Empathy the feelings of Disgust and horror.

Edward could hear Steve's thoughts of "get away from these monsters".

Steve left Liz dropped the blanket and turned back into her wolf and ran off into the forest.

Edward said "Jasper and Emmett come on we have to clean this up."

The three of them ran out of the house.

Sam asked "what did he mean clean this up?"

Alice said "Steve didn't take the news that we are vampires well. We have laws that humans can't know about us and we only just had a run in with the Volturi we don't want another one."

Embry asked "your not saying they will kill him are you."

Esme said "no of course not they will simply make sure he will keep quiet about what he learned here."

Chapter 15

Liz didn't come back for three days on the third day Esme got a phone call

She picked up a number she didn't know and a males voice said "I don't know if you remember me but this is David. Liz just showed up here in tears and she won't tell me what she is upset about but I thought you should know."

Esme said "Thank you David for letting us know we have been so worried. Liz's boyfriend broke up with her after she told him she was pregnant and the truth about her."

David said "he sounds like a jerk. Liz do you want me to kill him for you. Alright calm down I won't touch him. I should go I think I upset her worse. I will make sure she gets home safely."

Esme said "thank you again David."

Esme told the family "Liz is safe she is with her friend David he is going to bring her home."

Jasper said "good she shouldn't be alone right now and David loves her."

Alice smiled and said "yes he does and Liz loves him whether she admits it or not. I think the baby she is carrying is David's they spent a lot of time alone together when he was here and they do have a history together."

Carlisle said "if that is the case the baby could be very different then what we are expecting. Lucas is human and Liz and Nessie are human if David is in fact the father of Liz's baby it would have been conceived after he became immortal that would mean it is only human."

Jacob said "not even human it will be wolf."

Two days later a truck pulled up to the house late at night David got out. David and Emmett looked so much like each other they could be brothers. They were the same height and build they had the same shape face and smile including the same dimples. The only real difference was the color of their eyes and length of their hair. Emmett's was short and David's was shoulder length. They could almost be twins. They even looked about the same age. Right about 20.

Liz was asleep and David went around picked her up and carried her in the house."

Carlisle asked "is she alright?"

David said "yeah just tired. Where is her room?"

Alice said "I'll show you. Thank you for bringing her home."

David said "No problem. I wanted to come back and talk to all of you anyway. I'm kind of finding this life hard to adjust to. Liz suggested that you could help me get used to it."

David put Liz down in her bed and Esme tucked her in and they went out to the others.

Esme said "We could certainly try to help you but you have to be willing to work hard and take our advice."

David said "anything has to be better then trying to figure this out on my own. I'm not sure how to explain it but it is rather excruciating being away from Liz. She is all I think about. Then there is the thirst and I can't seem to be able to focus on anything and it is all very frustrating."

Jasper said "most of that is because you are a newborn. The part about Liz might be because she is your mate or at the very least you are in love with her. If you want to stay with us you will have to adjust to the same diet we have."

David asked "you mean animals? Liz told me about that. She says they don't taste as good but they are more fun to hunt and it helps to keep you from being so wild and makes it a little easier to learn to control your thirst around humans because it kind of separates in your head what is food. I don't know if it is true but she made it sound nice. I'm kind of having a hard time with the whole killing humans thing. It is disturbing to know I'm killing people for their blood."

Carlisle said "we can definitely help you learn control. But as for Liz I suggest taking things slow. She has been hurt and it will take time for her to get over it."

David said "I know. I have known Liz for awhile she likes to think nothing can touch her but she lets people in far too easily. She told me about when she first met you it wasn't long after her family came back from Asia or something and she had run away. She was hunting a vampire tracking his scent but when she found him he had a human with him and he wasn't trying to kill her this surprised and confused her. She had already decided not to hunt humans anymore but she was still new to it. She had gone a bit wild more animal then person but it was talking to the vampire and human that kind of was the catalyst of her embracing her humanity. She said she kept running into you most of the time you weren't aware of it. She watched you from a distance because you were different. You were a real family and she had never really experienced that before. Her family is all about power and controlling her."

Jasper asked "how long have you know her?"

David said "about a year. She was just a kid when I saw her at the park when I brought my nieces. She looked sad so I talked with her she told me she ran away from home and that she hated her family but she didn't have anywhere to go. I probably shouldn't have but I let her stay with me for awhile. It wasn't long before we became lovers. But one day she just left and left a note that said she was pregnant and she was pretty sure her family knew where she was and she had to make sure they never got to the baby. I guess she must have come here. It was stupid but I tried to look for her. That is when I was changed. She told me about immortals and how fire was their only weakness. I managed to get my lighter and set the vampire that attacked me on fire before she could kill me Liz told me a bit about vampires so I knew what was happening to me and what I would be like once it was completed. But I never dreamed it would be this hard. I got word about the Volturi coming for you and thought maybe Liz would be here so I came. I'm really glad that all worked out by the way. I would have stayed but Liz had a boyfriend. So, I left. I didn't expect to see her so soon and I still want to kill him for hurting her. All she did was tell him the truth."

Bella said "not everyone can handle the truth when it comes to supernatural beings. So, David where are you from?"

David said "Tennessee, my family has lived there a really long time, generations. We are from Gatlinburg."

Rosalie asked "what is your last name?"

David said "McCarty."

Emmett burst into laughter and Alice said "well that explains a lot."

David asked "what do you mean? What is so funny?"

Esme said "McCarty is Emmett's original last name and he is from Gatlinburg. That plus how similar you look can only mean you are related."

Emmett said "you are probably descended from one of my brothers. Kind of fitting Lucas ended up with us."

David smiled and said "Yeah I guess it is. Look I don't know if Liz told you but there is a chance that the baby she is pregnant with might not be Steve's. It most likely is but there is a chance I'm the father. She is already showing some and she said that didn't happen so soon with Lucas. If it is mine it would have been after I was changed so it might be growing faster. She is constantly thirsty and tired. She is hunting every day and today it was twice a day. If she keeps this up hunting won't be enough for her to sustain and the farther she goes along who knows if she could keep hunting."

Carlisle said "we will help her with it and I will keep a close eye on her."

Rosalie smiled and said "there is going to be another baby in the house."

Edward asked "where are we going to put everyone we are running out of space."

David said "I don't mind sharing with Liz. In fact I wanted to talk to all of you about something. I want to marry her. I haven't asked her yet. She is still getting over Steve and well I'm still a newborn. But well eventually I want to marry Liz."

Alice said excitedly "another wedding I can't wait I can already see the dress. Seeing things involving Liz is difficult but the dress is clear."

Carlisle said "Son you have our blessing but take it slow she has been hurt."

Alice was circling David and said "you are exactly the same size as Emmett. Alright does anyone want to come with me?"

Rosalie said "I will come I need to get a few things myself."

They kissed their husbands and left.

David asked "what was that about?"

Bella said "Shopping. Alice has a mental disorder that makes her believe she has to treat everyone like a barbie doll. You are no exception."

Jasper said "Alice likes to shop is all just because you don't doesn't mean there is anything wrong with her."

Esme said "she does have good taste too."

Carlisle said "I should go and get supplies if Liz is thirsty I need to make sure she has enough blood on hand. David we have human friends that visit nearly everyday if you feel like you can't control yourself around them we would appreciate you leaving while they are here and if you can control yourself you can wear contacts until your eye change to gold."

Bella said "he means my dad and his girlfriend Sue. Sue knows about us but Dad only knows we are different he doesn't want to know any details. If you like you can always wait in our cottage."

Edward said "speaking of our cottage Nessie will be up soon we should get back to her."

David asked "you left your daughter alone."

Bella said "Jacob is with her. But we like to be there when she wakes up."

David asked "does Jacob live with you too. I never really understood that."

Bella said "officially he lives on the res with his dad and sister but he spends nearly all of his time here with Renesmee. He is also the Alpha of his own pack. Liz is a member of his pack. We should tell you about the treaty too."

Carlisle said "yes if you are going to stay with us you will have to honor the treaty. It is rather simple we don't go on their land to hunt and only go on the res with permission and we don't bite humans. We had to get special permission to bite Bella to save her life. Mostly we don't interact much with the pack with the exception with Jacob and Liz.

Edward and Bella left as did Carlisle.

Liz woke to a cold touch on her wrist she smiled at Carlisle and asked "so what is the verdict doc? Am I still alive?"

Carlisle chuckled and said "very much so. How are you feeling?"

Liz said "very thirsty."

Carlisle said "for venom or blood."

Liz said "Blood."

Carlisle asked "are you hungry at all."

Liz said "no just thirsty. I should go hunting. I think I am bigger then I was last night."

Carlisle said "yes you are. You won't be able to hunt for too much longer if you keep growing at this rate. I stocked up on supplies for you when the time comes."

Liz hugged him and said "you think of everything don't you. Did David leave already?"

Carlisle said "he is still here. Now go hunt we will have to talk when you get back."

Liz left the house through her window. Carlisle took the vials of blood he had taken from her to his office and tested them. Then he picked up the phone and dialed it Carlisle said "Steve I know you don't want to hear from me but I though you should know Liz's baby isn't yours it is her former boyfriends, the same father as Lucas."

Lucas said "thanks for letting me know."

Then he hung up and breathed a sigh of relief that his kid wouldn't be a monster. Then he put the last box in the moving van. The Cullen's had funded his move to New York and his ability to afford a place to live and Liz had helped him be able to enroll in Culinary school so he would give them his silence but hopefully he would never have to see any of them ever again. He was leaving Forks and never looking back.

Liz came back to the house just as Alice and Rosalie pulled up to the house she hugged them both Rosalie said "you are getting pretty big already."

Liz said "I know I think David is the father not Steve."

Alice said "he told us."

Emmett, David and Jasper came out to bring in the bags.

Liz said "you are still here."

David said "Yeah I'm going to be staying if it is alright with you."

Liz said "sounds good to me. So, Em any good games on."

Emmett smiled and said "I think we can find something."

When they went inside Renesmee and Lucas ran to Liz Nessie said "you came back."

Liz said "yes I did."

Lucas said "you got fat."

Liz said "yes I did that too and I am going to get bigger. I am going to have a baby and it will probably look a lot like you."

Nessie asked "you are going to have a baby?"

Liz said "yes I am."

Nessie said "but you aren't married who is going to be the daddy if you aren't married."

Liz said "I don't know Sweetheart."

David said "I'm the daddy and Liz and I are going to get married after the baby is born."

Liz looked up at him with wonder and asked "we will?"

David said "yes if it is alright with you. This isn't how I intended to ask but will you marry me?"

Liz looked around at her family and stopped at Alice who looked like she was about to wet herself.

Liz said "alright on one exception. Alice gets to plan the whole thing."

David kissed her and said "I will get you a ring as soon as I can."

Liz said "there is no rush and I'm sure if you need any help Alice would be happy to help you pick anything out. She is good at that sort of thing. I should let the packs know I am back."

Edward said "they already know Jacob was here earlier and we told him he let the wolves know. He said not to come on the res while you are pregnant and so thirsty."

Liz said "alright probably smart we don't want to slip up on the Res. Lets find a game to watch."
