~Marcel’s pov~
“Marcel! Come back! I love you! I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to it was a mistake!” Ellie cried so loud that it made my ears ring. Tears fell from her eyes and I shook her furiously. “You monster! You monster for killing the love of my life! You blood sucking creep!” she exploded and I shook her with all my strength. I didn’t wish to hear any more. She woke up with an almighty jump but I had her in my arms and her hands griped to my hair. Her breathing was heavy…and dangerous for the baby.
“Ellie, calm, think about the baby!” I cautioned and her breathing paced itself. I pulled her back and she was pure white, her eyes were wide with shock. Whatever nightmare she’d had must’ve scarred her. I pulled her closer to me again and rubbed her back. Ellie’s body loosened as she planted kisses on my neck. Her legs wrapped around my waist and her lips moved towards mine. I don’t move for the few seconds that she’s moving her body around mine and then I pull her away.
“Ellie, are you okay now?” I asked her and she sighs.
“Guess I’m going to have to be aren’t I? I’m going to have to have a holiday!”
“I could ask to come…”
“No, she’ll say no.” her voice is rueful as she clenched up her fists. I get a grip of her hands and kiss her softly.
“I’ll miss you Ellie,” tears brim my eyes and she wipes them away with her delicate fingers.
“I promise to be back by Sunday,” she whispers and walks out of the door. I’m not sure what I’m feeling inside of me, I feel…weakened. My phone vibrated and I pulled it out of my pocket.
Harry
Are you going to kill the baby?
Marcel
No, what do you mean?
Harry
Oh wrong person and this isn’t about Ellie’s baby!
Marcel
I’m not thick as shit Harry you and the pack are going to kill that child!
Harry
It’s dangerous! That thing it a blood sucker! Well its father is anyway!
Marcel
Shut the fuck up, no, I won’t let you!
Harry
No, you can try, but it will die, just like Rhydian will.
“I’ve got to tell Ellie,” I said to myself before putting my shirt on and running out the door. Ellie was half way down the street and I was faster than someone walking. I caught up with her easily and grabbed her shoulder. She jumped and turned around.
“Marcel? What are you doing here?” her expression was puzzled as I pulled her into a dark alley way.
“Listen Harry and the pack are planning on killing your baby. Look!” I pulled out my phone and her face changed from confused, to shocked and then to anger.
“Excuse me,” she hissed before turning and storming out of the alley way with her fists clenched. I followed her for the reasons of me being worried.
“Where are you?” her voice was a low snarl as I got round the corner to see her talking into the phone. She placed in her pocket a bit too roughly before running rather quickly to the direction of a forest. He must be with the pack.
When she arrived she went straight to Harry, going for his neck. One hand covering her stomach in protection and the other, clenched up into a ball. “How dare you say you’re going to attempt to kill my baby?”
“It’s dangerous Ellie, imagine what a half bloodsucker half human monster is going to do?!”
“It’s not a monster,” she hissed, “It’s a baby! Say the word Harry, baby! A poor innocent baby that has no intention of hurting anyone! This baby boy or girl is going to make some couple happy! If you go near it without my permission then I will rip every scrap of hair out of that head before pulling it off of your neck and chucking the remaining body into the ocean! Do you fucking hear me?!” it was silent and the curly-haired boy, the dark skinned boy, the Irish accented boy, the brown haired boy and the other one’s mouths were open in shock.
“No,” Zayn whispered, “I’m not risking you’re life Ellie! It will kill you! I did some research earlier okay? It said by Dr. Carlisle himself that when the baby is ready it claws its way out of you. Leaving you to die!”
“I don’t believe you!” she screeched before sprinting over to Zayn, grabbing him by the arm and flipping him over.
“That’s enough!” Harry attempted to catch her but soon let go when she turned her head towards him and bared her teeth. Her teeth were beastly sharpened and I noticed her veins where bulging a deep purple and blue. Her body was quivering with rage as she grabbed Harry by the neck. She lifted him upon the tree and squeezed harder.
“Don’t you ever fucking touch me again!” she spoke through gritted teeth and Harry’s face was going a rather spooky blue.
“Ellie stop!” I was afraid now for Harry and her. “Please, for me!” I pleaded and automatically I was on my knees. She dropped Harry to the floor and looked at her hands. She ran into the woods tears pooling from her eyes.
“You stay with Harry, I’ll go after her.” I commanded before running in the direction Ellie had sprinted in.
~Ellie’s pov~
Run, run, don’t stop running you monstrous beast. My inner demon told me continuously. I obeyed and ran further, my body still shaking furiously and my sight blurred from the…what do you call it? I shook my head and suddenly the world was spinning, no I was. My body was furrier and my teeth were just as sharp as before. All of my bones were breaking and re-arranging themselves. I could no longer stand on two legs; no I needed four to hold my new body weight. My muzzle raised and a howl (shall I call it) entered the atmosphere. I sat just like a dog would and the stench of bleach burned my nose. I whined and spotted Rhydian. So, that’s what vampire’s smell like to wolves. Oh.
“It’s shocking how no one could see this coming Ellie,” He smirked at me before coming closer. Could Rhydian still read my mind? “Yes,”
Good, I need to tell you something.
“Ellie I know already. Everything, I saw it all.” I lifted my large head and allowed it to drop. “I still love you Ellie. Even though you’re a wolf and I’m a vampire, I still love you.” He sighed and I swear I saw something fall from his eye. Abruptly, Marcel entered where me and Rhydian sat and shock, confusion plus love entered his eyes.
“Please tell me that’s you Ellie,” he walked closer and I nodded, well I thought I did.
“Yeah it is oh and hello again.” Rhydian raised his eyebrow and now, with my more detailed sight, I could see why I fell for Rhydian. It was all confusion to me but now I know. Rhydian had that seductive look about him. I could hear a deer pass by and suddenly I was ravishing.
“Your girl’s hungry,” Rhydian cheered, God it was so annoying how he always does that. “I know right,” he teased. I felt myself get calmer and I was human again. I had no clothes on but I felt comfortable and not embarrassed.
“You’ve both seen me with no clothes on so I don’t actually care.” They both eyed me up and down which did make me blush. “Please keep your eyes up here or not on this body at all okay?” I face palmed before re-arranging my position to standing up. “Hold on,” I whispered before quickly running home, for I knew a way that didn’t show any sight of the living except some birds, and placing a pair of blue shorts and a white tank top on which had blue butterflies all over it. I tied my hair up into a bun before eating a sandwich and brushing my teeth. I decided to go back the same way and wear no shoes.
“Whoa, that only took about two minutes!” Marcel was now sitting opposite Rhydian so I sat on the side. I hadn’t noticed how big my stomach had become.
“Hold on, aren’t you meant to be going to Devon?” Rhydian asked.
“No, I’m not going. Nor am I going to take those retarded pills. Na-ah!” was my reply, probably more than he expected but I had no care. I was too mesmerized by that baby growing inside of me. “I’ve thought of some names for the baby.” Marcel looked at me with suspicion and Rhydian looked interested.
“Does that mean you’re going to keep it?” hope filled Rhydian’s voice but that died when I shook my head.
“No it’s just that I’d like to give the baby a name. Anyway, if it’s a girl then: Storm. And if it’s a boy then: Daniel.”
“Nice names Ellie.” Marcel commented, “How long have you been pregnant?”
“I went to see the person the other day and she said 8 months.”
“Well you were in a coma for several of those months.” Marcel flinched at the memory and I shuddered. “Oh and I found us a couple who are unique, one is human and the other is a vampire! So yeah they shall be alright.”
“Thank you Marcel.” Without thinking I crawled closer to him and kissed him gently on the lips.
A screech filled the air and I realized that it was mine. Something sharp inside me was clawing at my insides. I looked down and my top was drenched in crimson blood. Another scream entered the forest as I looked down at my stomach again, this time a baby’s hand was poking out of my stomach. The sky was blurring and spinning, also getting darker…
Fight the darkness…spoke my inner demons.
You’re strong enough...encouraged a male.
Open your eyes…pleaded a female.
He’s beautiful…praised another male.
We’re losing her…warned an unfamiliar womans voice.
Don’t die on me…cried a little girl.
Her heart is beating…stated a Doctor.
It’s okay…comforted I.
Thank you…whispered a joyful melody.
Ellie…sobbed a broken hearted male.
Blur, that’s all I can fucking see! Blur, blur and more fricking blur! Eventually my eye sight corrected itself revealing a colossal déjà vu moment. The pack, including Marcel surrounded me. So did Rhydian and yet two other people stared at me with wide eyes and I knew that they were my baby’s parents. My stomach seemed to have sunk underneath the blue and white polka dotted hospital gown. Flash back over came my eyes of what had happened and I was blinded for half of five seconds. In the couples arms rested a beautiful baby boy. He had lusciously smooth, brown hair and sea green eyes. His eye lashes were long and night black and his nose was that perfect shape.
I felt weak and…drained of blood. I looked at my arm and it was pure white. I knew that my eyes had widened as I sat up and checked my other arm. It was a splitting image of the other. I placed a hand on my stomach and felt stitches, about twenty.
“Ellie, are you okay?” Marcel…oh Marcel!
“Yes, yes, yes I’m fine. Who are they?” I nodded my head towards the people holding my baby.
“They’re the people who are keeping Alistair. Oh and that’s the baby’s name. Alistair. Nice huh?” I nodded in reply but secretly I hated that name. Alistair, seriously? The male walked up to me,
“I’m sorry about the reaction from the baby’s birth. Thank you so much.” His voice was croaky so he must be the human.
“I would say anytime but, nope. Anyway you’re welcome.” I sighed and looked at Marcel hope in my eyes to just go home. Wait, I am home. I recognize my silky quilt with blue trees.
“We’ll go now, thanks for the baby,” said a melodic voice. The mother of my baby, the vampire, griped one hand with the human and the other with Alistair. They walked out of the door in a flash and I knew that they would live a happy life. I noticed that Rhydian wasn’t in the room anymore. This must have been too much.
“Harry, I’m so sorry about what happened. I’m sorry Zayn too.” I apologized and it was true. I felt awful and a tear rimmed the edge of my eye.
“It’s no problem Ellie. Marcel told us.”
“Oh, did he? Okay then so could me and Marcel have a word please?” they stepped out of the room without another word and it was left just me and Marcel.
“How long have I been gone?” I asked before holding out a hand for Marcel to take.
“You died Ellie; I brought you back to life by beating your heart for eight hours. The answer to your question is sixteen weeks.” His reply was blunt, and hurt.
“I’m sorry, are you mad?” my heart was shattering at every word that filled the room.
“Mad doesn’t cover it!” he snapped and I flinched, “Why did you have to have sex with Rhydian? It broke my heart! And then that beast clawed its way out of you and look at the state of you Ellie! Bony and white arms, bloodless body! It makes me sick!” his words were hisses and my chest clenched. My stomach flipped and I grasped at it. I couldn’t breathe properly and the room was getting hotter and stickier. I shoved the covers off and pulled at my hair.
Beast, Marcel’s words echoed in my brain, Broke my heart. Bloodless body. It makes me sick!
“Ellie, I didn’t mean to hurt you. I was upset but this reaction was unexpected.” Now he cares. Shut up! The echoing calmed down and I could breathe again. My stomach settled and I looked into his eyes.
“Marcel…I’m sorry but I love you and it was a mistake I just didn’t understand it all and I couldn’t live and I want a baby and I want it to be yours too I just need you I can’t live without you and…and…” I was choked up by tears and that blockage in my throat.
“Sh, it’ okay. Do you really want a baby?” Marcel’s voice was full of love and hope. I looked up into his eyes; his fascinating green orbs sparkled in the light under the light bulb. I poked his dimples and traced his perfectly pink lips. I ran my fingers through his curly hair, so smooth and luscious. I tapped the point of his nose causing him to blink. His exquisite lashed touching his cheeks. I kissed his forehead and then his lips. His eyes watered, for I did not answer. I gently stoked it away and answered.
“Yes, and I want that baby to be yours.”
