Jacob was asleep with baby Bella his arm drapped over her protectively I smiled

"Finally. My turn"rosalie said making me look up

"Where does she sleep?"Bella asked

"In my arms. Or Edward's or Esme's or Dana's"rosalie said

"Happy birthday"alice said bounding into the room with Jasper and Emmett behind her

"I stopped aging three days ago"bella said

"Well, we're celebrating anyway So suck it up"alice said

"what about the...."I cut her off

"we've got it go and have fun Bella"i told her sitting on the arm of the chair she comes over to me

"hey I'm sorry about yesterday I just...."I cut her off smiling

"it's your mothers instinct I would've done the same"i told her she looks over at Jacob who shifts onto his back Bella on his chest as she grabbed his shirt in her small hands his hand on her back

"you never told me their names"she said I smiled

"that's Adam Josiah black"i said pointing to Adam who was with Esme and Carsile finally esme had an actual child to care for and I saw that in her eyes she was happy and she deserved it adam had her her finger as she fed him his bottle

"and that's Bella Cassidy Lahote"i said pointing to Bella as Jacob finally gets up Edward smiles and wrapped his arms around her waist

"she named her after you"he said I smiled sitting back down

"go have fun"i said they left I sighed going to Jacob and i's guest bedroom laying beside Jacob

"tired?"he asked me with a chuckle wrapping his arm around my shoulder Bella was taken away by Seth

"exhausted"i said he laughs resting his head against mine

"still not talking to Paul?"he asked me

"nope"i said popping the p

"Dana"he said with a sigh I turned to him

"I told him to stop but he didn't listen to me he chose them over me over family"i said being brought tears at my last encounter with my brother

"is that what you're worried about that I'm going to betray you?"he asked me tilting my chin up

"Dana"he said cupping my cheek

"I know I've broken my promises in the past but things are different now"he said I bit my lip

"how are things different?"I asked him tucking my hair behind my ear

"Bella's married for one"he said with a chuckle

"I don't wanna be anyone's second choice"i said shaking my head and grabbing his wrist

"I know I know and you're not I promise this time I swear on my life Dana I'll treat you like the queen you deserve to be treated"he explained before pressing his forehead against mine

"just give me one more chance"he whispered I sighed and a grin spreads across his face

"okay"i said giving up my hand reaching up to tangle in his hair

"okay"i whispered pressing my lips against his he kisses me back with so much passion I let out a sigh before moving to sit in his lap his lips move to my neck I sighed running my fingers through his hair as he tightens his grip on my waist

"I love you"i breathed out a sigh as he brings his lips back to mine

"I love you too"
.......
"Wow. Done already?"I heard Emmett say as I ate a bowl of grapes

"Where's Renesmee?"Bella asked

"Blondie stole her"Jacob said standing close by

"Break a lot of stuff?"Emmett asked I covered my mouth to keep from laughing

"Emmett No"Bella said shaking her head Emmett chuckles but the phone rings

"Is that Charlie?"she asked

"He's been calling twice a day. He's in pretty rough shape"Jacob said coming over to sit on the arm of my chair

"Eventually, we'll have to tell him you didn't make it"Carsile said

"He needs to mourn, Bella"Edward said

"it'll be okay"i told her she nods

"Okay We'll do it tomorrow"she said I nodded

"I'm gonna miss this place"Emmett said getting up

"We'll come back. We always do"Carsile said giving me a nod

"Wait. Nobody said anything about leaving"Jacob said I sighed I had to tell him i was leaving too there was nothing left at the reserve

"Once people believe Bella's dead, we can't risk anyone seeing her"Carsile said

"So you just disappear?"he asked

"Jacob, we don't have another choice"i said he turns to me

"we? Dana don't tell me you're leaving with them"he tells me I looked away

"there's nothing here for me anymore my mom left before I was a month old my father's an alcoholic and the only family I have left are the Cullen's my own brother betrayed me"i explained to him

"what about me?"he asked and I forgot I was torn a part of me wanted to stay and another part wanted to leave what was I gonna do? He left in anger and my shoulders shook as I cried Bella hugs me rubbing my back softly she rests her chin on my head

"it's okay"
