Bella left the house early. She'd called Nessie the night before, just wanting some quality alone time with her daughter. Ever since she and Jake got hitched, Bella hardly ever saw either of them... and even less since Nessie got pregnant. It really sucked sometimes. So, Bella had called her at like, ten o'clock last night, and asked to meet her. They'd agreed at meeting on First Beach in La Push, because Bella didn't want to make Nessie drive. Bella was in a nondescript white t-shirt and a pair of lgith washed jeans. She drove into the parking lot and stepped out, taking her shoes off. It was drizzly and icy cold outside, but Bella didn't care. She couldn't even tell a difference.
Bella didn't see Nessie on the beach, so Bella just walked to a place and sat on the damp ground. She watched the waves crash against the shore, listening to the sound. This was where she first found out Edward was a vampire-- the first time she'd really had a convorsation with Jake... the first time she really had her life change forever. She waited for her daughter to come.

Upon waking that morning, Nessie looked out the window and was pleased to see it was drizzling - her favorite kind of weather was rain. Pulling on a dark green vest over a long sleeved white shirt and black capri pants, Nessie slipped on her shoes and left the house. Jacob was out with the pack and she'd be back before him, most likely.
Walking along the path to First Beach, Nessie smiled to herself. She knew she'd been appearing distant to her mother recently, and she was glad they would be spending some time together again. And they'd get to talk about the new little addition to the Black family - well, the soon to be new addition...
As she stepped onto the beach, she immediately spotted her mother, heading over and sitting beside her. "Hey Mom."

Bella looked up from her reverie and saw her daughter making her way towards her, and neeatly sitting next to her. Bella gave Nessie a quick hug and smiled. "Hi, Nessie," she said, glad to have the woreds on her lips, glad to be talking to her daughter again. At first, Bella had hated the nickname "Nessie". Seriously, how could Jake name that adorable little baby after the Loch Ness Monster? But soon, her entire family had started saying it, and however she hated to catch herself saying it herself, she soon grew used to it, and eventually, she grew fond of the name. It had a nice ring to it. Now Bella would never even consider calling her daughter anything other than Nessie. That would be just... weird.
Bella's face fell as remembered the real reason she had called Nessie the night before... the baby. It was strange, her daughter having a baby, but on one level, she was extrememly, unconditionally happy. But on the next level, the deeper, darker level that Bella didn't like to think about, Bella was SCARED of the baby. What it would do to their family, and mostly, what it would do to Nessie. If things went wrong. If the Volturi took the baby away, like Bella had thought they would take Nessie away. Her eyes unconsciously drifted to Nessie's middle.

Smiling at her mom, Nessie remembered her childhood, when her mother never wanted anyone callng her 'Nessie', and how she'd been mad at Jake... Chuckling softly to herself, Renesmee realized her mother had been looking elsewhere.
Catching her mother's gaze immediately, Nessie's brow furrowed. Wasn't she happy about the baby? Renesmee certainly was. She might have her fears for the child, but she would protect it with her life. "Mom? Aren't you happy for us?" Nessie was sure her mother would say yes.

Bella sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. She caught Nessie looking at Bella looking at her stomach. The baby. To be honest, Bella was scared. Scared lifeless... no pun intended. And, even in this life, she couldn't lie worth a crap, especially to her only child. She sighted again and locked eyes with her daughter-- eyes that looked so much like hers had been. Maybe the baby would have their eyes, too. Or maybe Edward's green ones... or Jake's dark brown ones. Any of these would be beautiful on the baby. This was probably going to be the best looking baby of all time, she thought to herself-- Edward, Renesmee and Jake, all in its genes? That baby had no chance of being ugly!
"Sweetheart," she finally started, "of course I am happy for you. Your father and I are both so, so proud. But.. it's just so much like... like you. And that scares me. The Volturi are dangerous. Who knows what they will think... a human-vampire-werewolf hybrid? But I know that you will protect her... or him, I guess-- with your life, and I know Jacob will do the same. He loves you so much. And of course, we'll be with you, too. Alice and Rosaile and Edward and Carlisle... all of us. We're ready to do whatever is needed. Just like we were ready to save you," she whispered. Actually, she didn't even realize she was whispering until she stopped.

Nessie was smiling, but she could feel her eyes watering. She would never ask he family to do this for her, but if they were willing to do it again... "Thank you Mom." Nessie finally managed to say. "It means so much to me..." She smiled for her mother and said, "Now, on a happier note, what about names? Jake likes Allie, but not Jaspet or Billy."
Renesmee wanted to focus on her child and think of happier things. They would deal with the Volturi when they had to, not now. She placed a hand unconsciously on her steadily growing stomach, still smiling. What would the baby look like? With Edward, Bella, and Jake's genes in it? It could never be ugly, only beautiful.

Bella could see why Nessie might want to change the subject to less heavy matters. She knew that sometimes when she had been pregnant, all she would want to do was stop talking about "Oh, are you feeling all right" and "We should get her to a hospital" junk, and she'd just want to sit and think about names. "Allie is a very pretty name for a girl. For a boy... well, before you were born, I thought you were going to be a little boy. I was going to name you EJ. Edward Jacob. That might still work," seh chuckled grinning for real for the first time at her mother-to-be daughter.

Renesmee's eyes lit up with happiness. "EJ sounds perfect! I have to ask Jake, of course, but I'm certain he'll love it!" Nessie smiled broadly. "Secretly, I hope it's a boy... If it is, Jake will have a little man to teach things to. It would make him happy." She gazed out at the coastline of the beach, eyes drifting along and landing on a seagull that was trying to catch a fish.
Also secretly, Nessie wanted the child to be a boy so it would have a better chance at becoming a werewolf. Jake had told her a long time ago that sons were more likely to carry the genes than daughters. And a wolf for a son would make Jacob even happier.
