"Will you have a baby soon too?" Asked Jayden.

"Oh well I don't think so I mean you should ask your brother," I said as Paul talked to Jared. We had congratulated Jared as he was really excited to meet his babygirl soon. Jayden got up from his seat as he walked towards Paul. Jaydens now 8 years old. He's smart for his age yet a little short which always made me laugh a little. "Paul," spoke Jayden.

"What's up buddy?"

"Are you and Arabella gonna have a kid too?" As Jayden asked the whole room got quiet. Paul immediately looked at me as I quickly shook my head no. "WAIT! ARE YOU PREGNANT ARIA?"yelled Embry.

I laughed at his worried face. "N-No I'm not Embry."

"Good thats good,"he gasped . Paul grabbed Jayden lifting him in the air and quickly putting him on his shoulders. "Dont drop him Paul."

"Yeah PAUL dont drop me," mimicked Jayden. I laughed as Paul rolled his eyes. Paul came up to me as he hugged me. "Hey you can't hug her like that." "Why not?"asked Paul. "She isn't yours."spoke Jayden. I looked up at Jayden shocked. I laughed as Jayden leaned towards me as he fell into my arms. He shimmied down as I placed him down. "Your funny kid,"said Paul as he grabbed me.

Jayden held onto my arm as he pulled me towards him. "Nope Arabellas with me now."

"Fine fine I'll let you just for now,"teased Paul. "Actually boys shes mine," said Embry as he carried me bridal style. "WOAH! You wish Embry."

"Put me down NOW EMBRY! Or you'll wish you've never been born," I whispered. He quickly put me down as he ran off. I laughed as I saw Sam and Emily walk in. "OH MY GOD ARABELLA!"yelled Emily. She pulled me into a hug as I hugged her back. I hugged Sam as he carried Ella in his arms. As soon as Ella saw me she pushed her way into my arms.

PAUL'S POV:

"She wont fall asleep it's been hours." I overheard Emily talk about Ella.

I looked over to see Aria carry Ella into her arms. She sat on the couch swaddling her in her arms. "Hey Paul." I looked over to see Sam and Jared calling for me. I walked towards them as I saw the guys sitting around the table. "Didn't you guys get married already?"

"Yes but don't say anything to her brother. We eloped a year ago without her brother knowing."

"WHAT NO WAY!"yelled Embry. "SHUT UP!" Quil said smacking his head. I laughed at their reactions. "So when's the kid coming?" Asked Sam. "Well let's just say we've been too busy experiencing new things."

"UH EWW gross," replied Seth. The guys chuckled as I stared at Aria. Ella had fallen asleep in her arms. "She would be the most perfect mother," whispered Emily.

I nodded as I began to think. Every time I bring up having a baby she always says not yet. I question myself every time does she not wanna have one with me? I buried my head into my hands as I heard the door open. Aria walked down the hallway to put Ella down. I looked at the door to see Jacob walk in with a present in his hand. "Sorry I'm late guys." He announced.

I looked down the hallway as Aria walked back into the room. "Jake?"

"God Aria its been awhile,"Jacob said bringing Aria into his arms. Jacob's always been pretty close to Aria it irks me sometimes. Aria walked up to me as she rested her head on my shoulder. "What's wrong Paul?" She asked me.

She sat on my lap as I sat on the stool. "Nothing important alright." "Paul come on I know something's wrong," she asked making me look into her eyes. "W-Why don't you wanna have a kid with me?"

"P-Paul I do wanna have a kid with you." "Then why not now?" "Paul I do I really do.... I just got out of college. I just wanna settle into our house and then we can talk about having a kid Paul." I looked at her as I saw how bad she felt. I felt bad for asking. She kissed me as I rested my hand around her waist. "I love you Paul."
