Dreams of the Moonlight
Chapter 4 - Dreams of Endless Night

Standing there, he merely sighed. There was nothing else he could do at this point. Tears had been shed, over her death, over his regrets, over things they could not change now. Soon he was joined by another, a hand coming to rest on his shoulder.
“Come inside Edward. There’s no point in just staring at her gravestone. There’s nothing you could’ve done. “
He just couldn’t accept it. No, it just couldn’t be true. It was almost like he knew that when the night ended, it would turn out to all be a dream. She would be sitting in his living room, smiling warmly at him.
Edward collapsed to his knees, his hands digging in the soil. Tears began to flow down his cheeks as he began to start clawing at the ground.
“No, she’s still alive! We shouldn’t have buried her!”
Jacob grabbed Edward, yanking him to his feet.
“Edward there isn’t anything left of her! Ashes can’t come back!”
“No! NO! LET GO! I HAVE TO SAVE HER!” He ripped from Jacob’s grip, tearing at the dirt again.
Finally Jacob sat down on the ground, pulling a wiggling Edward into his arms. He held him tightly, rocking back and forth as the teen shook with the force of his tears. It was as if a dam had broken with Edward, ripping him in two. He held onto Jacob, sobbing hysterically.
“Shh..it’ll be alright. This isn’t your fault.”
“I..-hic-..just can’t see that. She died because of me, because I didn’t love her like I said I would.”
“But she understood that you didn’t love her like you used to. Don’t keep beating yourself up.”
He sighed, his sobs fading out. “I know, I know. In some way though, it is my fault, and it’s my duty to avenge her.”
“We will. I promise. Now come on.” Jacob got to his feet, his arms under Edward’s shoulders and knees. “Carlisle wants to see you and I promised I would deliver you.”
“Jacob! Put me down damnit!” Edward struggled, trying to get out of the other’s tight grip.
“Nope. I can’t have you trying to dig your way to China again.”
************
“Carlisle, for the love of God, CAN I GO HOME?”
“Not quite. You’re not telling me something Edward, and I want to know what it is. Believe me, you and I both know we can sit here for a very long time.”
The doctor sat on a short stool, across from the examination bed that held a furious Edward. Both sat quite still, silence falling like a thick blanket around them. Outside the room, Jacob snored lightly, sitting against the wall. The rest of the family had vacated to visit Tanya up north to deliver the bad news. Now it was only Carlisle and Edward locked in a showdown of wills.
Finally after what seemed like a lifetime, Edward sighed and dropped his head.
“Fine, you win.”
“Ah, good. Now, what Is really bothering you Edward.”
Covering his face with his hands, he relayed what he had seen in Sinclair’s head. For a few moments Carlisle sat silently, thinking.
“Well, that is a bit of a strange situation, now isn’t it? Have you spoken to Jacob about this?”
“Of course not! How could I? I’m not even sure if Aro even knows what he is talking about. Perhaps it’s just an assumption that only pertains to actual werewolves? I mean, the shapeshifters are exclusive to this area only.”
“I doubt that. Aro prides himself on his extensive knowledge of the world. He more than a likely knows what he is talking about.”
Edward got off the bed, picking up a quick pace, moving back and forth in the small room. There were so many things wrong with this entire situation. Just, so many things. Carlisle stood as well, moving to the drawers on the opposite wall. He withdrew a few medical items, placing a stethoscope around his neck, and turning back to face the pacing teen.
“Now, get undressed and lay on the bed Edward. We’ll have to give you a full examination.”
He quirked an eyebrow as he began to get undressed. Left in his boxers, he laid down on the bed. “Now…what do you mean by ‘full’ exactly?”
Carlisle chuckled. “It means exactly what you think. Since we have no idea if you really are pregnant, or can even become pregnant, I’ll have to give you a sort of OB/GYN examination. But trust me, it’ll be unpleasant for both of us.”
“Now that I doubt. You seem to be having more fun with this than a child in a candy store.”
“Nonsense. Now hush.”
He pressed around on Edward’s abdomen, the normally rock hard flesh yielding to lightest of touches. That was something new. He continued to press, a little more firmly. Edward yelped, flinching away, but was held fast by the good doctor. There it was, a small lump nestled innocently between his hipbones.
“Hmm..”
“What?”
“Nothing yet, I’ll have to check a few more things. Now-” He pulled out a small sheet. “Take off your boxers and prop up your knees.”
If Edward could blush, he would have. He tried to protest, but the serious look on Carlisle’s face told him fighting was useless at this point. So, much to his embarrassment he obeyed. It went pretty fast, just a few cold touches to his inner thighs, then Carlisle was replacing the sheet.
“Well?”
“There doesn’t seem to be any changes to your outside anatomy, but there definitely is something inside you. Stay right there, I have an idea.”
Without another word, the older vampire darted out of the room, returning just as quickly pushing a machine in front of him. He plugged it in, and began to spread a kind of gel on Edward’s stomach.
“Do you really think an ultrasound will work on me?”
“You wouldn’t think so, but your skin is softening. I was barely touching you and it still felt soft. “
After a few moments the machine beeped it’s readiness. Carlisle placed the small scanner on Edward. To both their surprise, the monitor began to generate a definite picture. Edward’s eyes widened.
There it was. It was an unmistakable image.
“HOLY SHIT!”
Both vampires turned sharply towards the door, where the source of the voice stood. Jacob’s eyes bugged out his head as he stared at the monitor. For a second, no one breathed, unsure if it would shatter the calm before the storm. It was Jacob who came to first, moving closer to Edward.
“Is there something you need to tell me?”
“Uh…”
Jacob hadn’t heard him, still staring at the picture. There on the monitor was a small, but easy to distinguish, figure. It was a baby.
“Well boys, congratulations. You’re going to be parents.” Carlisle smiled widely.
“Um…How is this even possible doc? Edward’s a guy. A vampire guy at that.”
He continued to smile as he took a few measurements with the ultrasound machine, then turned it off.
“Oddly enough, it is an easy explanation. You’re wolf genetics are changing Edward in order to carry on the genes. The only reason it is happening now is because you finally imprinted on him. So, really it wouldn’t matter if Edward was female or male, vampire or human, or even some other weird species. He would be fitted to carry and bare offspring. Simple as that.”
Both teens looked at each other dumbfounded. Jacob was the one to break the gaze, grabbing a towel nearby. He set to cleaning off the ultrasound gel off Edward, taking great care to do so with gentle strokes. Carlisle stood and cleared his throat to gain their attention.
“Judging by the measurements I have taken, it would seem the pregnancy is moving along quickly. You can’t be more than a few days along and these pictures indicate you are at almost two months. And doing fine I might add. We’ll need to take another few pictures tomorrow to be sure of the growth rate.”
“What do you mean? So I won’t be going through this for nine months?”
“It seems more like two. I need to do some more research. This may explain a few things though, like your green eyes and your sudden need for sleep. In any case, I’ll be in my office. You two play nice.”
With that, the older man was gone. The two were left in complete silence yet again. Edward finally stood, moving to get his clothes.
“No, I’ll get them. You just sit down.”
“Jacob, I hope you don’t intend to dress me as well.”
“Well you need to take it easy!”
Edward snatched his clothes from the werewolf. “I can dress myself. Trust me, I won’t strain anything.”
Edward dressed in silence, noticing offhandedly that his pants did indeed fit a little tighter. He finally looked at something he had tried so hard to avoid. His own cold hands felt alien as he ran them down his stomach. They found what the machine had too. A small, yet defined bump poking proudly out from his body. Jacob watched him with a curious gaze. Soon, he couldn’t help himself but do the same. Edward gasped slightly as blazing hot hands replaced his own over his stomach. They stood like that for a long while, Jacob’s arms wrapped protectively around him.
“So, now what?”
“I don’t know Jacob, I really don’t. I suppose we just need to take this one day at a time. “
“But like Carlisle said, every day is bringing us closer and closer to..”
“I know, I know. I just… don’t have any idea how to deal with this right now. I mean, I’m having a baby damnit! Nothing about this is right!”
Jacob turned Edward around swiftly, hugging him tight. “No, don’t say that. Everything about this is right. I mean, we’re going to have a family! I couldn’t be happier.”
Edward looked up at him, jade eyes searching his. “Really?”
“Yes! This is great! Though, I am worried about one thing.”
“What?”
“What do you think it’ll be? A vampire or a werewolf?”
He hadn’t thought about that yet. Edward laid his head on Jacob’s chest, using the steady beat of his heart to help him think. It was hard to see the child being born a vampire, since the whole process was due to the werewolf gene in Jacob’s blood. Then again, the gene was supposed to skip a generation, right? This was all too confusing.
“I think it will be a shape shifter. Mainly because vampire’s normally can’t have children. It’s your imprint that is causing this to happen. So naturally, the child will have the werewolf gene. I think.”
“Man, I wish there was someone we could talk to about this.”
“Well, there is.”
Jacob scooped Edward up his arms, ignoring his protests. He wanted to continue this situation with the vampire more comfortable. Like on the living room couch. He waited to question the other’s statement until he had him settled nicely on the wide couch, his head in Jacob’s lap.
“Now, what do you mean?”
“I mean, your council of Elders. This has more to do with your tribe than anything else. Perhaps we should consult them.”
“Are you nuts?! I can’t go back there! You can’t go there!” Jacob growled.
Edward sighed. He had anticipated that kind of reaction.
“Look, all we can do is try. You technically are still the alpha of the pack. You can go and try to reason with the rest of them to allow safe passage for me. I mean, who else can we really talk to at this point?”
Jacob grumbled. This was a huge mistake. He just knew he’d regret this, but Edward was right. There was no one else. Only the elders really knew what the hell was going on when it came to this freaky werewolf crap. He growled in defeat.
“Fine. I’ll go later tonight. Right now, you just go to sleep. You’ve had a big day.”
“I’m not tired.” Of course, he promptly yawned afterward. “That’s so weird, I don’t think I’ll ever get used to that. “
“Go to sleep.”
“Mmkay.” Edward closed his eyes, quickly drifting off into a dreamless sleep.
Jacob sat there awake for the longest, running his fingers softly through his bronze hair. That was a sight he could get used to. Edward looked so cute, so at peace when he was asleep. He sighed. They had gotten themselves into quite a situation this time. Finally, he shifted Edward slightly so he could reach into his own pocket. He pulled out a cell phone and flipped it open. The number was easy enough to dial, it was one he would never forget. After pressing send, he held it to his ear, almost hoping it would just go to the answering machine. Suddenly the other line crackled, letting him know someone had picked up.
“Hello?”
“Hey dad.”
“Jake! I’m so glad to hear from you. I almost thought those Cullen’s had made you a vampire too.”
“That’s stupid dad. I can’t turn into one. Listen though, joking aside. I need to talk to you and the other council members. “ He grimaced, not wanting to explain anymore than that. But he knew his dad all to well.
“Okay, that’s not too much of a problem, but why? You haven’t been back in months.”
“..It’s a really, really long story. “
“I’ve got time.”
Jacob sighed. Well, here went nothing. Or everything, depending how you looked at it.
