A huge surprise in this chapter, that's been planned since the first book! Enjoy!
Flipping though a wedding magazine in Jasper's lap, Alice leans over the back of the couch, point out various things, while Jennifer sleeps on the loveseat, Garrett's arm around her, and Pandora is on a homemade pallet on the floor, all of us have decided to stay in the main house to keep together, in the case of another magical incident, while we wait for Bella and Edward's return. "So, are you guys going to college, after you get married?" Rosalie asks, joining us on the couch, Emmett leans beside Alice as I look over at Jasper.
"Well, they literally have forever, so I don't think it really matters." Emmett points out.
"No, but I don't want to be starting college, while Jasper, and you guys are starting high school again, in a new town." I point out.
"We're not always high school students, and besides, Jasper would go to college with you, while the rest of us maintained cover in high school, if anything. Aside from that, we aren't leaving town, until Bella's changed." Alice explains, Rosalie jumps at the chance to point out a dress in the magazine, before I can even flip the page.
"We're also going to have to worry about Alice's vision of Jasper and I's wedding. Let's not forget, she said I was a vampire." I point out.
"No, she said she saw you with golden eyes. That doesn't always mean, a vampire." Rosalie counters.
"Well, it's not as if she just casted a spell, and got golden eyes, let alone bought contact lenses." Jasper argues, while I lean up, pressing a kiss to the hollow of his throat, causing him to lean down, growling playfully in my ear, causing me to giggle as Emmett and Rosalie look disgusted as Jasper stands with me in his arms, my arms looped around his neck. "We're going back home for a bit." Jasper states, waltzing towards the door as my face flushes, burying my face in his chest as he carries me towards our house, and as soon as we're in our room, he deposits me on our bed, shedding his shirt as I let out another giggle, kissing him sweetly. The next morning, I stretch out in bed, Jasper's hand in my own, resting my head on his chest as I trace the lines of his hand, and he draws soft little patterns on my back, occasionally reaching up to caress my hair, before he goes back to drawing the little patterns across the skin of my back.
"We're going to need to go back, soon." I murmur.
"I know." He rumbles softly, kissing the crown of my head.
"We really need to go, now." I point out, rolling over of bed, and he groans, before climbing to his feet as I do the same, only for a rush of blood to flow to my head, causing me to stumble back, dropping to the bed as a wave of queasiness washes over me.
"Darlin?!" He rushes to my side as black spots my vision, but I simply smile up at him.
"I'm fine. Promise." I murmur as he helps me stand, but not before he places a change of my clothes, undergarments included, on the bed, and places his hand on my forehead, his brow furrows as I move his hand away. Shrugging on my underclothes, before I button up my blouse with shaky fingers, I can feel his gaze on me, studying my emotions, and every movement, it isn't until I've stumbled into my jeans, and attempted to button them, that Jasper frowns.
"You've gained weight." He frowns. "I'll have Alice go shopping for jeans for you."
"Don't." I shake my head, shoving the jeans off, and then sit on the bed, sighing as I lower my head. "I'll just end up needing new ones again soon."
"Darlin, what do you mean?" Jasper frowns, kneeling beside me as I drop back on the bed, sighing as I shake my head.
"I don't know. I'm just, getting fat." I answer, causing him to frown, placing a kiss to my lips, and then moves to the closet, coming back with a skirt. "What's weird is, how much weight I've gained, when I can hardly keep anything down."
"Why don't we have Carlisle take a look at you?" He asks as I slip the skirt on, then the leggings that he hands me, before I slip on my combat boots. "Darlin'?" He asks softly, causing me to look up at him, not realizing that I hadn't answer his question, until now.
"Carlisle. Right." I murmur, taking his hand as we stand, and he leads me down the stairs, before we leave the house, starting down the path towards the main house, and Alice practically pounces on me, at the door.
"Thank god, you're alive!" She cries, taking me by surprise as the others join us in the hall.
"What do you mean?" I ask, confusion evident in my tone as the chipper girl pulls back, frowning as she looks me in the eye.
"Your future suddenly disappeared when you left yesterday!" Alice frowns. "I was afraid you died!"
"We went a couple miles away, that's all." I point out, fanning myself as heat suddenly streaks through my body.
"We actually came back, because Lily needs Carlisle to check her over." Jasper explains, causing Carlisle to frown.
"Is there something wrong?" He asks in fear.
"I've gained weight, all at once, and keep gaining. I've literally gone up two pants sizes in the past week. I can't keep anything down. I've gotten dizzy, at random times, and I've gotten so hot, at random times." I explain, causing Esme to frown, glancing over at Jennifer, and Rosalie.
"Lilith, come with me, sweetheart." I look up at Jasper in confusion, before I follow my pseudo mother, crossing to her side as she leads me towards the garage, Rosalie and Jennifer follow, the four of us climb into Edward's Volvo, and Esme backs out of the garage, and down the road.
"Esme, where are we going?" I ask after an uncomfortable silence settles over us all.
"To the store." She answers as I frown.
"But, I wanted Carlisle to-"
"Have you and Jasper been using protection?" Jennifer asks, causing my brow to furrow, and I look back at her.
"No, I can't get pregnant." I answer. "Especially since he's a vampire, and even magic wouldn't help us have a child."
"What do you mean?" Esme asks.
"I have polycystic ovarian syndrome." I explain, causing Esme to frown.
"Sweetheart, you might need to ponder the possibility of having children, with Jasper. You were diagnosed when you were human, you're a witch with a vampire mate. It's possible that you're magic makes you more fertile." Esme says softly, as we pull up to the store, and Rosalie steps out, disappearing inside, before appearing not even five minutes later, a bag with a box in her hand.
"Where can we go, so you can take this without invasion?" Rosalie asks, settling the bag in my lap.
"Charlie's house." I answer, causing Esme to nod, and drive over to Charlie's house, and I walk up to the door, knocking on the door, it opens to reveal an exhausted looking Charlie, who smiles at me.
"Lily, what's up?" He asks lightly.
"Charlie, I… I, uh, need to… I need to use your bathroom, please." I state as I hold the bag in my hands, and Charlie's eyes widen.
"Are you-?"
"I don't know." I answer, causing him to nod, gesturing me inside, where I rush up the stairs, and into the bathroom, a few minutes later, I'm walking downstairs, and out the door, dropping into my seat in shock.
"Lily?" Esme presses a hand to my face. "Sweetie, you look like you saw a ghost."
"I-I'm pregnant." I murmur, causing everyone to fall silent.
"What?!"
Ta-da! Please read, and review! Things are just getting good!
