Chapter 14: That Smile

Jacob POV:

It's easily said that Chloë Rae has me wrapped around her finger. Don't get me wrong, I'd do anything for Jay but having a little girl makes things so different. I love having a daughter just as much as I love having a son. I really have the best out of the best when it comes to a family.

Chloë is a little over a week old and she grows like crazy, just like Jay did. She still looks like our cherubic baby, but less newborn baby looking. Her cute little chubby cheeks were irresistible to pinch. I almost forgot how it was like to have a little baby. Jay looks more and more like a little boy and less of a toddler. And it's quite interesting to see how my hair looked on a little girl that looks a lot like her mom. Her hair wasn't as straight as Jay was when he was this little, maybe she'll have Nessie's curly hair or some waves.

We had a couple of hours before the Uley's come over and Nessie felt the need to hunt. She ran out of her stock of blood and wanted to sink her teeth into a deer or mountain lion. Thank goodness Edward and Bella lived so close to us, they were here in a jiffy to watch Jay and Chloë. I knew Jay would be fine if we left for a moment but Ness and I were worried about how Chloë would be with both of us away. She hasn't left our side since she was born. She does love her grandparents so I think she'll be okay but she'd fuss a little bit.

Ness wore something she wouldn't mind getting dirty. A pair of jeans and an old Led Zeppelin sweater. She decided to nurse Chloë before we left so if she did cry, Edward and Bella would know it wasn't because she's hungry. I heard Edward and Bella come inside and they waited for us in the living room. As always, Jay was overjoyed to see his grandparents and he told them all about how cute his little sister is and that he is the coolest big brother. Once Chloë had her fill, Ness and I joined everybody in the living room.

"There's our pretty girl." Bella smiled and crossed the room to pick the baby up from Nessie's arms.

"I fed her, so she won't be hungry if she cries." Ness smoothed out her hair.

"She'll be okay." Edward reassured her.

I picked up Jay and kissed his cheek while Ness said her goodbyes to Chloë. I expected for Ness to get a little emotional but she held up pretty well. That is until Chloë noticed that we were not in the house and she started to cry. Watching Nessie's face crumble was something I prayed that I'd never see again.

"Hey, hey. She's going to be okay, we won't be gone for long." I pulled her into me.

"She's so little, what if she doesn't understand that we'll come back?" she squeaked out.

"Remember when we went out hunting for the first time after Jay was born? You were just as upset and he was just fine, she will be too."

"Right." She inhaled and wiped away her tears, "Let's get this over with."

I gave her a nod and went to the side of the house to phase. I loved the feeling of being on all fours. I trotted back to Ness and she got on my back. It has been forever since we've ran together. I let her sniff out what she wanted and she showed me where to go. She loved it when I went at my top speed, I'm not as fast as Leah but I admit I can be pretty quick. Once, Ness got a whiff, she launched herself off my back and onto her prey. It was a deer, a male one to be exact. She took it by the antlers and snapped his neck in one quick motion before whispering a thanks. Even I had to admit that watching her do that was pretty hot. She completely drained the animal before standing up and flashing her dimpled smile at me. I did the honors of burying the body and we made it back to our home.
