"So in a few weeks, I will be able to carry you in my arms and protect you from all the horrible things that exist in this planet like your mothers craving, and then when you get a little bit older, I'll teach you how to play lacrosse and I bet you will be captain of the team in school....in a few weeks I will be able to see how perfect you are" Isaac spoke into ambers giant belly while she slept. It was only 4:30 in a summers day and Isaac couldn't sleep until he had given his speech to his son. Amber shifted in bed as Isaac crawled back to his sleeping position and wrapped an arm around amber and the bump. It had only been a couple of months after there marriage that amber and Isaac found out they would be parents. Amber was slightly frightened but Isaac was all in for it, he didn't know if the lose of his first child with rose was the reason but he really wanted this baby and he already loved it so much. It was a boy, Isaac's little baby boy. What scared Isaac the most though was what will happen to the baby...was he a werewolf too?. Ambers pregnancy was a risk because the baby was growing too fast, and he would be born of 6 months. The doctors had confirmed that amber was strong enough and that she was doing very good, they just felt so confused to why the baby was being born so early but according to them, it had happened before, to them it was advanced growth to Isaac it was a baby werewolf. Isaac had talked to deaton, he had assured him that everything was going to be fine since Allison had her child and both mother and daughter came out perfectly fine. Isaac looked out at the rising sun from the bedroom that his wife and him shared, silently wondering what was it going to be like having a child come into his life. A symbol of love from him and amber. Although Isaac shouldn't have been so worried, Allison had done fine and so had Lydia who gave birth to twins, aiden smiling from ear to ear. Isaac felt it, he knew his son was more then just human, he knew by the strong kicks and the cravings. Isaac held tighter onto amber like sort of protection, he wanted to protected them both as much as he could.

I searched down the rows of baby cribs and toys, I smiled, these little hats and socks just made my heart want to burst, so small..so fragile. "So have you seen one that caught your eye" Isaac popped besides me, holding a baby car seat "I was going for the apple wood crib but my baby will need more space, he is big after all" I said rubbing my belly as a giggle slipped my lips "well that I can't argue, what about this one! It's big, apple wood and has room for diapers and clothes" I gave it a long stare and then nodded "yeah, I like it" Isaac did a victory dance which was a combination of arms moving In every direction and the shuffle, "SHE HAS CHOSEN!!!!" He screamed over at one of the workers that waited for our selection, a couple awaiting there child as well laughed and congratulated us, my cheeks must have been rosy red as Isaac continued with his silliness. We filled in some papers and bought some diapers and clothes for the baby. The news of the baby amazed both of us, I was slightly scared, what if I wasn't a good mother? What if my child didn't look up to me because of all the mistakes I had made before, what if I wasn't enough, Isaac didn't worry about such things, he just wanted me and the baby to be fine. I promised him it was all going to be fine, that Allison had her baby with flying colors, both girls came healthy out of the operation room and Scott couldn't have been happier. I assured myself every night that I was strong enough and that I wasn't going to disappoint Isaac, all he ever got before our marriage and little miracle was disappointment. We walked out the store hand in hand "hey you want to get some ice cream" Isaac asked swinging the babies r us bag in his hand "yeah, sure" I agreed feeling the cravings kick in. We crossed the street of the plaza to the ice cream shop, we both entered letting the cold temperature in the store cool us from our previous walk under the bright sun. "Hello, welcome to Mary's ice cream parlor, how may I help you?" I looked down at the many flavor and cravings "can I have vanilla and then mint and then strawberry and then blueberry with toppings of pineapple syrup and cherries and slices of banana and a hint of coffee syrup!" I said, the worker acknowledged my bump and giggled "I'll be right back with your order".

Isaac p.o.v

I waited for ambers order to be over as I looked around at the pictures on the walls of the small ice cream parlor, some where smiling kids holding ice cream cones, a ice cream Sunday with sunglasses with big letters under it saying "stay cool kid" I shook my head and chuckled. I soon bumped into someone "sorr-" I looked up at the familiar face "rose?" She looked up quickly into my eyes and looked shocked. "I-Isaac" she stuttered, I smiled "hey" I said as I chuckled, it's been a couple of months since we saw each other and I missed her, yeah, I did, I know it was wrong to miss your ex wife when you already had a wife with a baby in the way but she was more like a friend to me, I missed our friendship. She cradled a baby in her arms as the baby was sound asleep "awee, who is this cutie?" She flinched at my words, she looked nervous, suddenly amber appeared by my side holding a cup with all sorts of sweets in it and handing me a milkshake "I got you the peanut butter kind" she informed me not noticing rose yet, she looked away from me to rose and the child in her arms "hey! Rose wow I haven't seen you in so long!" Amber cheered, she was hormonal, she was nice to everyone right now. Rose smiled and nodded "yeah!" She looked down at ambers belly and my heart fell,I didn't feel bad, I just felt guilty, she had lost her baby and now I was here being selfish and getting another women to have my child, I loved amber but in any other eye it looked like that. Rose gulped "I-I have to go, congrats on the baby and I hope you get many more blessings" and with that she rushed out the store "that was strange" amber noticed and grabbed another spoon full of her ice cream "yeah" I said softly "but that little girl in her arms was just painfully cute" she continued and for a brief moment somewhere deep inside my head, the idea of that baby girl being mine appeared,quickly disappearing as I remembered rose's glossy tear filled eyes when she told me she had lost it. I loved amber and I never loved anyone like her, rose was my friend but a baby was a baby and that was going to be my child. My daughter or son. I snapped out of my thoughts as amber brushed a hand on my cheek "you alright honey?" She asked worried, I nodded and jiggled the car keys in the palm of my hands "yeah, let's go home".

The moon shined through our room window like the sun earlier in the morning. I sighted as amber laid sound asleep besides me, she moved slightly to find her comfort in the bed, right in my arms, I hugged her little bit tighter and I smiled. I closed my eyes shut trying to find my own dreams but the only thing I could think of was the birth of my child, the baby in roses arms and rose herself. I didn't know why but I wanted to ask her many questions, how was she holding up? Who was that baby? Why was she back in town?....could we be friends?... I sounded helpless oh so needy but I wanted to know so bad. I felt something wet beneath me and the screech out of ambers lips, I sat up quickly as amber did to, she reached under the blankets and bought her hands up back up, blood mixed with clear liquid smeared all on her hands "Isaac" she cried, tears slipping down her cheeks "the baby"
