It has been two weeks since Edward and I returned home. Carlisle has run multiple tests on me to try and see if I'm pregnant. Blood tests, urine tests, scans and ultrasounds but the results were coming in as inconclusive. After a lot of hard thinking, I decided to take my chances and continue on with the pregnancy. Within a week, I already looked around 5 months pregnant.

Christopher and Bella returned home two days ago, Bella keeping as far away from me as possible. The Cullen family was completely divided. Rosalie, Bella, Esme, my mom and Carlos were on my side and believed that it was a baby however, Edward, Chris,  Carlisle, Alice, Jasper and Emmett believed it was some sort of dangerous vampiric growth or something. The tension in the house was unbelievable.

I shifted as I sat uncomfortably on the sofa. "Are you ok?" said Rose as she sat beside me. "Yeah. Just a lot of pressure is on my back and hips" I replied as I leaved against the arm of the chair. "Can I get you anything Serena? Some water or some crackers or something?" said Esme and I gave a small smile as I shook my head. "I'm alright thanks" I said and she nodded.

The sound of a motorcycle caught everyones attention and Edward looked out the window. Carlisle walked downstairs and I heard the front door open along with some distinct chatter. "Jake?" Bella said from the other side of the room before I heard someone come up the staircase. Jacob appeared and I watched the look of horror fill his face as his eyes landed on Bella.

"Bella-" he said as he slowly approached her. "I'd stay away for now Jake" she said as she held her hand out stopping him from stepping any closer. "You finally did it. You turned her into one of you!" Jake snapped as he glared at Christopher. "It was her choice" Christopher said back as he wrapped his arm around Bella's waist.

"Can you all stop this arguing?!" my mom snapped from behind me. Jacob turned and his eyes fell on me. "Serena" he said as he looked at me before his eyes landed on my stomach. "Are you...pregnant?" Jacob said and I averted my eyes. "We didn't know it was even possible" said Carlisle and Jacob turned to him. "What is it?" he asked.

"We're not sure. Ultrasounds and needles won't penetrate the embryonic sac" Carlisle replied. "I can't see it either...And I can't see Serena's future anymore" said Alice from her place. "We've been researching legends but there isn't much to go on. What we do know is that it's strong and fast growing" said Carlisle.

"This thing sounds dangerous. Why haven't you taken it out of her?" Jacob asked as he looked at Carlisle. "This is none of your business dog!" Rosalie spat as she stood up. "Rose! All this fighting isn't good for Serena" said Esme. "The fetus isn't good for Serena!" Alice interjected. "Say the word Alice. Baby! It's just a little baby!" Rosalie snapped as she glared at Alice.

"Possibly" said Jasper as he walked over to his wife. "What do you mean possibly?! Look at her stomach! There is a baby in there I've felt it move!" my mom snapped. "Will all of you stop arguing and saying what you think is best for me?! This is my body and my baby and I will decide what is best for me God damnit!" I snapped as I cradled my stomach and the room fell silent.

"I wanna lie down. Rose?" I said as I turned to her and she stood up before helping me stand up. She held my arm as I walked away from the living room and into Esme's study which the Cullen's had temporarily turned into a bed room for me. I walked in and Rosalie helped me climb onto the bed before I pulled the blanket over her.

"Call you if you need anything" she said and I nodded before closing my eyes.

Bella's P.O.V

Rosalie returned to the living room and sat down on the sofa, Emmett walking over to her and placing his hands on her shoulders. "That thing she's carrying sounds like it could be a danger to the town Carlisle. Sam won't stand for it" said Jacob. "You're not going to tell him are you?" I said as I looked at Jake.

"Jake you seriously can't do this! You know what will happen if you do!" I exclaimed. "If you tell Sam, we'll all be on his kill list" said Chris from beside me. "He'll find out one way or another eventually" said Jake before he left the room and I followed him down the stairs and out the front. "Jacob wait!" I exclaimed as he walked to his bike.

"Please don't tell Sam! Our whole family will be in danger ok?! That means I'll be killed and so will everyone. Jake, I know you're angry that I'm one of them now but you're still my best friend. Please don't do this" I pleaded as I looked at him. "Ok. I won't but he will be able to read my mind and will find out one way or another" said Jacob and I sighed before walking into the house.
