I see Rhaenyra and Tory all dressed up when we enter the living room, that human is in one of the rooms sleeping with Rosalie guarding her. "Spin" Alice claps her hands smiling "Oh! Perfect! Just perfect!"

"Are we going somewhere?" I ask, did Tory tell me and I forget? I have been forgetful lately, for instance I forgot that I needed to bathe because Tory and our little one are my number one priority "I can be ready for whatever in ten minutes"

"No" Tory smiles looking in the mirror as she wears a beautiful black mini dress with sequins "even though I have maternity clothes, I want to wear the clothes that I have before I no longer can"

"Oh" sighing relieved "that's good"

"It's good that I need to buy new clothes?" She demands looking at me, Rhaenyra picks up a dress and shows it to Demetri leaving me to defend myself since Alice announces to look for shoes.

I think over my next words carefully "I think" she narrows her eyes on me "that it's good that our baby is healthy, if you need new clothes then it means our baby is healthy"

She is silent before sighing looking around defeated "I guess" when she bends down to grab some shoes, we hear some fabric rip and Tory stands up and covers her behind with her hands.

"I don't know how" slowly saying "but this can be my fault if you want it to be"

She nods her head crying "I'm fat" I run over to her and hold her, rubbing her back as she cries about her dress ripping.

When it's near nighttime, we watch the Cullens all in the living room. Jasper and Emmett watching the game, the others staring a the human who is trying to sleep. I'm in an armchair with Tory on my lap, I have my hand on her belly right where our baby grows. Rhaenyra is at the table with Demetri, he's teaching her Greek.

"Are you cold?" The mind reader asks Bella, she nods her head.

"I've got it" the wolf goes over and holds Bella, she smiles like he's her whole world "don't do that"

"Do what?"

"Look at me like I'm your whole world" he answers, just then the human throws up but there is nothing to throw up.

"We need to find a way to get some food into her system" Esme speaks

"If I can only see the fetus" Alice speaks

"Baby" Rosalie corrects

"Maybe I could figure out what it wants" Alice sighs defeated

"Why not give her blood?" Rhaenyra asks, we all look at her "what?" Shrugging her shoulders "the baby is part vampire right? Wouldn't it make sense that it would want some blood?"

"He's thirsty" the human is convinced she's carrying a boy.

"If it's craving" Edward speaks "it won't want animal blood"

"I have some o negative laid aside for Bella" Carlisle leaves, yeah there's the blood we drink and the blood they have for Bella.

"Walk with me" Jasper is taken out of the room with Alice and Emmett, my arms around my mate tighten not wanting her to be in danger.

"Your really going to make her drink that?!" The wolf demands

"It's the fastest way to test the theory" Carlisle speaks as he pours blood into a styrofoam cup for the human, when he brings it over the human takes it.

"I think I'm going to be sick" the wolf goes away as the human has a clear straw with the cup, the human takes it and we watch her drink the blood.

"It tastes" she says "good" smiling a bit before drinking some more.

"Your pulse is already getting stronger" Carlisle says and they smile, the wolf just looks disgusted before leaving.

~Next Day~

"Here" Carlisle shows us on the monitor, yeah after a long time we agreed to having Carlisle give us an ultrasound of our baby. I smile seeing our little baby "would you like to know the gender?"

"Really?" I ask "isn't it a bit early?"

"No, Tory is about five months along" he says, wait? Five months? That would make the baby conceived the day

"The day we came home from La Push" Tory finished my thought "I wasn't on birth control, forgot to get an IUD" so she been pregnant for not a month but months, why didn't we hear the baby before "sometimes" Tory tells me "siren bodies can knowingly or unknowingly hide their child" looking at Carlisle "give Alice the result, she's planning the gender reveal" he nods his head.

Wiping the gel, Tory sits up and I lean down to kiss her belly "I love you my little one" leaning to capture Tory's lips with my own. Tory placed a hand on my cheek as I grab her hips holding her close. Pulling away I tell her "I love you so much"

"I love you too"
