Bella is laying on the couch and everyone is sitting around her.
"Are you cold?" Edward asks his wife.
Bella shivers and that answers that.
"I got it," Jacob says and he goes over to her.
Bella rests her head on Jacob's lap and she starts warming up. She smiles up at him.
"Don't do that," Jacob scolds lightly.
"Do what?" Bella asks.
"Smile like I'm your favorite person in the world," Jacob murmurs,
"You're one of them," Bella claims. "It feels complete with you here, Jake." She closes her eyes as she starts to feel sick and Abel hurries to put a trash can by her. Bella dry-heaves over the trash can.
"We need to find a way to get some food into her system," Esme claims.
"If I could see the fetus..."
"Baby," Rosalie and Abel correct in unison.
"... Maybe I could figure out what it wants," Alice continues, ignoring the duo.
"I think you might be right," Edward says. "Jacob just had an idea."
"It wasn't an idea," Jacob states. "It was a snide comment."
"What were you thinking?" Bella asks.
"That it's looking for something to sink its teeth into," Jacob says.
"He's thirsty," Bella whispers.
"I know the feeling," Edward says. "If it's craving, it's not gonna want animal blood."
"I have some O negative laid aside for Bella," Carlisle says.
"Come on," Emmett says and he pulls Abel away and Alice takes Jasper.
Abel buries his face in Emmett's chest when he smells the blood strongly as Carlisle pours it into a styrofoam cup for Bella.
"It's okay, babe, just hold your breath," Emmett murmurs as he holds Abel tightly as Alice and Jasper enter their room. "I got you."
Jasper and Alice join them, they hug from behind Abel, trying to calm down his newborn hunger.
"It's working," Emmett tells him. "The blood is working."
Abel merely whimpers and Jasper and Emmett share a concerned look while Alice talks softly to Abel, saying calming things, things that she hopes will help Abel.
