The next two days were filled with "baby pickings." I don't really know any other way to describe it. We were constantly on the internet searching for baby items; which ranged from stretchy baby growths (due to our babies definite quickened growth) to extendable prams. Then there was the designs which Alice and, surprisingly, Reneesme drew up. I was shocked to realise that my niece was just as talented as her pixie like aunt.

With a mother like Bella I was half expecting Alice to have to force fashion down her throat.

Bella seemed happy to have her husband back and disappeared for a day with him while we happily took care of Nessie, she seemed quite hesitant to leave her again, and I knew that those feelings would surely come when I have my baby; Edward loved Renesmee just as much as Bella, but somehow I am led to believe that a mother's love is different; a sort of bond which cannot be formed between father and child due to their inability to carry a baby for nine months. I found myself weirdly envying Bella once again; not enough to treat her worse but enough to remind me of my old feelings.

She got to be an eternal monster and have a child; now it's my turn for happiness and I am completely ready. Only I now had something more to worry about.

There is problem with having Reneesme around had nothing to do with Reneesme herself, it was the problem of the dog.

I could literally shiver when he is mentioned, he annoys me to the uttmost highest and I was absolutely against the idea of having him in the house until little Nessie's eyes welled up with tears and she put on the cute little face Emmett readily used to get his own way - "Please Auntie Rose, I miss him." I couldn't understand how such a smart child could miss a mongrel after just two weeks of separation, yet I gave the go ahead anyway.

So on my 21st day of pregnancy the while of the family gathered around my bedside as the smell entered the house. I felt my nostrils flare and tension ripple through me, but it was quickly stifled by a calming heaviness which enveloped me just seconds later; Jasper.

At first I had decided that it would be better if the wolves didn't know anything about my miracle pregnancy, then I realised that Reneesme, through no fault of her own, would be likely to tell him almost straight away. At least if he was shown everything was harmless then I could try and persuade him - while trying not to hold my nose - to act well to the idea.

As he entered the spacious and well lit basement I felt Emmett tense then relax a little as Jasper turned his face a fraction towards him.

The stupid beast howled the second he took in my stomach, "Wh - what?" he stuttered and muttered not forming much coherent stuff, then he managed a stilted sentence, "If -if you can, umm, breed, what about the, the bad leeches?"

Both Emmett and I hissed at the term leeches, and Alice clasped the hand which was not already taken by Emmett's vast hand.

"I am sorry Jacob, but i do not like the use of that derogatory term in my home," Jacob's jaw tightened as though weighing something up, he moved his stare to little Nessie and his eyes lit up, the frown never leaving his face though, "I will explain things in more detail later, but I can assure you that no other vampire -" Carlisle emphasized the word, "will be able to breed without the help of me." Jacob stared at him for a few seconds before his shoulders relaxed and he turned to Bella.

"Can I hold her; I won't bring up the thing, just let me hold her," his face softened, "please,"

"Please daddy," Nessie added; I simply could not understand how she wanted to be near him.

"Yes, of course Jacob." Reneesme ran into his arms quickly once her mother's words were spoken and Jacob spun her around till she giggled and made my understandably sour face turn up into a smile.

"Be careful," Edward chided him, and Jacob gently set her down, looking straight into the eyes of my neutral brother.

"I know that you are worried about little Nessie being with me, but if I have your permission, I would like to take her to meet my family, only the-"

"NO! No, absolutely not. That is out of the question-" Bella was interrupted by her daughters soft wails, and I felt her heart break in two, torn between her safety and her happiness. Bella had Renesmee in her arms in seconds, and had her sitting on her hip while she gently rocked back and forward, sending me into little fantasies of my own baby rocking on my hip...

I was quickly snapped out of it by Edward's shocking words, "Bella, love, you know Nessie is safe with him - he would never let anything happen to her."

"H- huh?" Bella's fading crimson eyes popped open in shock as Nessie's cry quieted too little "after crying hiccups."

Edward made his way over to her gently slipped his arm around her waist; the family picture was beautiful. Dad, mum and baby girl. "You know I'm always the protective one, but it's causing our daughter pain to be away from him-"

"Pain?"

"Yes, pain, and Alice can see that she will be back here at exactly the time Jacob says she will be back here at; 5 o'clock tomorrow night."

Bella's eyes dropped from his and were on Renesmee's in a flash, "Nessie, I missed you so much." Nessie's eyes watered and Bella's dry sobs filled the silent room. "Are you sure you want to go with Jacob?" Of course she must have known the answer, but Renesmee put her hand to Bella's face, kissing her cheek gently at the same time; and Bella smiled. "If you go with Jacob you are going to have to get packed," Renesmee nodded happily as she was put down, then her face suddenly changed to grimace. In seconds the whole family had surrounded the little angle and I had naturally tried to sit up quickly; surprisingly, Emmett was there to push my swollen body back down, and I tried to relax on the fluffed up pillows while everyone fussed over my beautiful niece.

"Auntie Rose?" her little voice chimed over the voices of her mother and father. Every one's eyes turned to me as I answered her.

"Yes, sweetie?"

"It's just, I wanted to spend some time with you, I've really missed you and I can't because I'm going with Jacob."

As much as I hate the mutt, I knew what I had to say, "It's okay, I'll still be here when you get back, we'll look through your designs together and Alice will help you sew them. You can go with Jacob, it's fine," I smiled at her as her brown eyes lit up when I mentioned her designs.

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" she sped towards me and gave me a warm hug before running back to Jacob.

"Okay Renesmee, let's get your things packed, Jacob, is there any chance you could come back in an hour, we'll have all of her things ready for the z... outing you have planned." Edward smiled a little as he lifted Nessie into his arms and proceeded upstairs with both Bella and Jacob by his side.

The room was silent for a few seconds before Emmett decided to fake a cough.

"Yes?" I questioned.

"Well, Carlisle said he had something planned for today, for us." I glanced towards Carlisle who had his arm around Esme.

"Do you?"

"Yes actually I d-"

"Uhh - I don't think we are needed for this particular event, I don't think Rose would enjoy sharing the findings with us,"

"Sorry?"

"Jasper and I are going upstairs, I would advise you to follow Esme - and you Carlisle, when you give them your "findings" - run." Without another word Alice exited the basement, pulling Jasper along with her, Esme hesitated for a moment before giving ma a swift smile and following; what the hell is going on?

"Uh - Carlisle - what did you have planned?" I asked, a little dubious.

His eyes dropped to the ground before he answered, "Well - I was planning on weighing you."
