"Do you like brownies or cookies better?" Violet asked her best friend, Jacob, as they browsed the aisles of the grocery store. She hadn't been able to stock up on food in weeks because of the war with the wolves and now it was like she was browsing candy land, which technically she was.

Jake didn't even flinch when she spoke to him, he was off looking at some puzzle stranded in the dessert aisle which was weird considering he hated them. After his pause Vi turned towards him, crossing her arms when he still had yet to look her way. "JACOB!"

He jumped a foot in the air, along with the grandma standing at the end. She scowled towards the brunette hybrid in annoyance to which Vi rolled her eyes, looking back towards her friend.

He cleared his throat, "sorry its just..."

"Still thinking about what Emmett said this morning?"

"Yeah, are you okay with it?"

She shifted, looking away and dropping both sets of baked goods into her cart. "Well yeah, I understand them. Nessie is growing rapidly and Bella's father is constantly calling, if we don't we will be bound to be discovered."

"And you're okay with leaving everything behind."

She turned towards him, "Jake, I have nothing. Sam chose our deadbeat of a father over me, the wolves won't even look at me. The only reason i'm still alive is because my brothers is the alpha and even he wont look my way. I have nothing to lose, Emmett and the Cullens are all I'll ever have now and I'm fine with it. I love him, I wont leave him."

Jacob felt for her, truly he did. His best friend didn't deserve this much grief but even so she just couldn't abandon all hope.

"What about Bella though? She's just gonna leave Charlie? Not even a goodbye? Just dead and thats it, after everything they fought for..." he countered.

"It was gonna happen one way or another, she's gotta deal like all of us." Vi sounded detached from it all, eyes unwavering as she continued placing more things into their cart. "You can come with us, I'm sure Bella won't mind and I know you won't be able to leave Renessme."

The offer was met with a less then satisfactory sigh, running a hand through his hair Jacob shook it adamantly. "You know I can't leave my dad. Rachel might come back but who knows."

Vi nodded her head back, "yeah, you're right. Don't worry though Jake, we can figure something out, we will talk to Edward and Bella."

He stayed silent, looking off and following the girl around for about five minutes until his eyes suddenly were bright with mischief. "Can we make a stop before going back?"

Vi dropped the chips into her cart, turning to him with crossed arms. She looked like a mother ready to scold her naughty child. "No, whatever it is I won't be apart of it and you shouldn't either."

"You don't even—"

"No Jacob Black, you will not involve me in your shit. I had enough of that when we were dating, thank you very much." She firmly spoke and turned back to her task.

"Fine, I'll see you at the Cullen's then." He groaned and walked out of the aisle. Vi didn't even bother questioning what he was about to do, knowing she would find out soon enough.

"Why is Bella about to kill Jacob... again?" Vi asked as she jumped out of Emmett's jeep, the keys dangling on her fingers as she stuck them into the pack pocket of her ripped jeans. Emmett already carried all the plastic bags in his hands, hugging them to his body as she came around and met him as they walked up the stairs.

Emmett had a grin on his face the size of Texas, "your best friend over there thought it was a glorious idea to tell Charlie about wolves and now he's on his way here."

"Oh god," she shook her head like an apologetic mother. "I knew it was a good thing I didn't follow him then."

"Well Bella's about to murder him," Emmett pointed out. "Unless you step in."

"Nah, I've got chips to eat." She commented, knowing fully well Jacob could hear which is precisely why he groaned in annoyance.

They stepped into the house, finding Esme bouncing the small child in her arms. Renessme was now nearing the size of a six month old child rather then 5 days old, immediately her eyes fell upon the hybrid and she giggled in happiness, chubby arms stretching towards her.

Vi smiled, noticing how Emmett headed for the pantry to drop her things off while Esme walked towards her. She cooed as her fingers extended, "Renessme!!"

The baby laughed in joy once she was in her hands and Vi lifted her up, twirling in circles as they baby yelped in happiness. She could never really explain why the pull with her was so grand but Renessme favored her. There was just something that made Vi special to the child, and Vi adored every second of it.

"Come on Renessme," she made sure to use her full name rather then the nickname that had caused so much drama. "Lets go save Jake from being killed."

They came out towards the balcony where both the newborns parents had Jacob cornered, his hands up for dear life which visibly relaxed at the site of the two. His eyes zeroed in on Nessie though, almost like he had forgotten his life was on the line.

"Alright, someone explain why Bella is about to shove Jacob off the plank." Vi sassed, turning both vampires her way.

Bella immediately came closer, holding her hands out for Renessme who went willingly. Her daughter brought her back from the brink of anger, as she now concentrated on the child.

"Jacob seemed to think it was a good decision to tell Charlie about the wolves and that Bella was different." Edward answered, glaring once more towards the male.

"I swear to god Jake, I told you not to." She huffed, crossing her arms. Like she had stated before, she had a feeling about what he was up too.

"You knew!" Edward turned towards her in surprise and anger.

She didn't even waver in his stare, instead a cheerful smile crossed her lips. "Not exactly, but my idiot meter was going off harder then usual with this one and I kind of figured."

"Hey!" Jacob snapped towards her.

She shrugged her shoulders like he'd just given her a compliment. "What do you want me to say? You've got an idiot meter."

"Can we get back to the task at hand here!" Edward snapped at both of them.

Vi scowled his way, keeping her mouth shut. The walk beside her however teetered on her heels. "You're right, Charlie's on his way so..."

And as he spoke everyone could differentiate his police cruiser getting on the highway. Bella groaned, reversing back inside while the rest of them followed suit. There they found the rest of the Cullens expectantly waiting, Alice holding a little plastic container.

Bella handed Renessme to her father while Vi went straight for Emmett, the smirk on his face apparent. Her hands clasped her's and he turned her so he could lay his head on the crook of her neck.

Alice walked up to the newborn vampire, placing in her hand the little white case to which Bella immediately began putting them in, blinking rapidly. "These will irritate your eyes at first."

Esme stepped up next. "The main thing is not to move too fast. Try taking a seat. Crossing your legs."

Bella did all these things far too fast for a human, practically stumbling as she was not yet used too her speed. She looked up expectantly and Esme did her best not to sound to disappointing. "Maybe a tad slower."

"And blink at least three times a minute." Emmett pointed out, Bella following suit way too quickly.

"Good." She questioned.

Vi pulled her lips into her mouth, not ready to tell the girl how bad she had actually done. Unfortunately Jacob had no problem. "For a cartoon character."

Most ignored him as Jasper went on. "Hold your breath. It will help with the thirst."

"Just don't forget to move your shoulders so it looks like you're breathing." Carlisle suggested.

Vi spoke up, "And don't sit so straight. Humans don't do that.

Bella seemed slightly overwhelmed but she lifted herself from the chair and rolled her shoulder as if forcing herself to relax.Okay. I got it. Move around, blink, slouch."

A car approached, all heads turning in the direction of the front door as footsteps approached. Vi suddenly felt nervous for both Bella and her father, she hadn't had to deal with this specific moment but just imagining it brought chills to her skin. Truly, this would be a test for the newborn.

Those who were barely involved moved outside as Edward also made his way around the hallway with Renessme to give Bella her privacy with her father.

Vi gave Bella a soft smile. "Good luck."

"Its going well." Vi murmured in a low voice as her Jacob, and Emmett attempted to seem engrossed in their own conversation while devouring bags of chips.

They were sitting outside, in one of the balconies, scattered bags of chips and powdered donuts on the mini table there. Through the glass door they could catch a glimpse of the father daughter doing the talking, things seemed smooth.

Emmett was sitting on the couch next to his fiancé, her head was in his lap as the rest of her body was sprawled across the soft pillows. His hand was holding up a cellphone that was live streaming one of the college football games as he wasn't able to watch inside due to the family reunion. Jake had been paying attention as well on his own phone until Vi had spoken up.

He too was sprawled across one of the chairs, looking identical to a relaxed Vi except with Emmett's lap as a support.

Jacob dropped his phone, his eyes looking towards the house and then back. "Think she's still pissed?"

Vi flipped a chip from the bag laying atop her stomach, munching on it as she thought. "You know Jake, for once you've done something right. I'm proud of you best friend, get it bitch. Get your smart on."

Jacob snorted, "I take that as a yes then."

She nodded, "so? How long does this buy us?"

Emmett shifted, just enough to focus on his girlfriend who's brown eyes were looking at him. He briefly flicked the piece of Dorito out of her hair and then spoke, "a few years possibly... we're moving regardless of what Jacob did though."

She nodded, going back to her original position and eating with a little less animation as he eyes were trained on the forest.

Emmett and Jacob looked at one another, knowing exactly where her head was. She had that look since the fight with the wolves, yes she had stated that she was completely okay leaving her family and friends behind but... they could tell that her heart wasn't entirely there.

"Vi? Do you miss it?" Jacob chose to speak up.

She'd been too lost to actually focus on his words at first but now the words soaked into her mind and she sighed. "So much... but I can't dwell. They chose my path, I didn't. Sometimes you just have to go with the hand you were dealt and swallow the pain that comes with. I have you, Emmett, and all the Cullen... that's enough for me. I will always love my brother but what more can I do."

Her eyes turned back to the forest and hand found Emmett's, the conversation was over after that. Neither of the males had the heart to make her cry after all the joy the day had, for now the conversation was over.

Bella closed the door as her fathers police cruiser left the Cullen's driveway and her shoulders relaxed. She turned around, a buzzing smile upon her lips as she looked expectantly towards her family.

Jasper was the firs to congratulate her. "Well done, Bella. Never seen a newborn show that kind of restraint."

Emmett's cocky tone followed the comment. "I'm not sure she is a newborn. She's so tame."

"Oh my god Emmett, why are you such a horny thirteen year old boy!" Violet scolded him, although a tiny smirk escaped her lips much like everyone else's.

"Violets right Emmett, don't antagonize Bella. She's the strongest one in the house." Edward warned his brother.

Emmett stood taller, thick arms crossing over another. The muscle in them flexed and tightened as everyone watched, the prospect of not being the strongest getting to him. Vi had to admit, her boyfriend was probably a helluva lot stronger then she ever was but she would never tell him that, it would go to his head. He was strong yes but Edward had a point, the blood running through Bella's veins also was significant. Emmett scoffed however, "Please."

In less then two minutes they were crowding the back of the home, a thick boulder Emmett had just ripped away was set on the ground. He'd taken his grey jacket off and was now in nothing but a white tank top. Vi hadn't been able to take her eyes off him, although her hormones were going to have to wait as she walked over to Bella.

"Don't hurt yourself, Emmett." Edward yelled towards his brother as Renessme bounced in his arms.

They touched elbows to the thick boulder, the other hand securely behind their backs. Vi, being the asshole she was, rubbed Bella's shoulder like she was her trainer. "Come on Bella, you can do this. Who runs the world right?"

"Babe! What the hell!" Emmett scoffed towards his girlfriend.

"Sorry, chicks over dicks." She sassed back, stepping back as the group laughed consecutively. Bella and Emmett in turn grasped palms.

Jasper stepped in, holding both their interlocked until appropriate moment. "All right. On 3. -3!"

There was no competition, Bella's smirk never wavered and she barely seemed to be using strength. Emmett on the other hand had slowly lost grip of the scowl on his face, pure fear dawning on his face as he realized that for the time being his strength had been defeated. Bella finally chose to end, slamming their fists into ground, effectively winning. The smile on her face was like a child's as Emmett turned away. "Did you see that?"

Everyone clapped as she began to punches the boulder like it were a pillows and the rock collapsed into dirt. Vi walked towards her scowling boyfriend, standing on her toes and kissing the tip of his lip. "Sore loser much?"

"Never." He sounded like a boy on the verge of a tantrum.

She rolled her eyes but nonetheless locked her arms behind his head. "If it makes you feel any better you'll always be Hercules to me baby, plus Bella's strength will go away in a few weeks and you'll be back to being the strongest man."

"My ego is torn between cussing you out for going against me and also kissing you."

"Your ego can't resist Violet Uley, and also we all know who does the better cursing between us." She responded, earning herself a kiss as two arms lifted her clear off the ground.

He kissed her and like always, it was just them in a blissful world.

Okay I have thought it over and Vimet would definitely have 4 children, 3 boys and 1 girl. The last 2 would be twins (girl and boy) and all the testosterone would drive Vi to madness but she would love every second of it.

Im trying to figure out their names now 🤔 suggestions?
