I woke up the next morning from the dim light shining through the tall window. Jacob was still asleep, but Sara-Bell was calling my name upstairs.
"Momma!" I ran upstairs and into her room to see what was wrong.
"Sara-Bell, sweetie! What is it? What's--" I stopped in the middle of the doorway to see her walking away from her tall, canopy bed and over to me. "Oh my gosh! Sara-Bell, sweetheart! You're walking!"
"I am?"
"Yes, you are!" I walked over to her, picked her up and kissed her on the cheek. "Oh, I'm so proud of you!"
"Are you proud of me enough to make me breakfast, Momma?" I laughed as she smiled back at me.
"Of course." I carried her downstairs and turned on the TV for her. "I'll make you breakfast and you can watch some cartoons, okay?"
"Okay, Momma."
I made her eggs and bacon that morning. I heard her giggling the entire time I was cooking, clapping her hands again and again. Just as I was putting her food on a plate to take to her, she called me.
"Momma! Momma!" I ran into the room, with her food in hand.
"What is it, sweetie?"
"Look! Daddy's waking up!" I looked over to see Jacob's eyes fiinally opening, as he gave a low groan.
"Jacob, honey. Are you alright?"
"How long was I out?"
"Only a couple of hours."
"Where's Sara-Bell?"
"She's here. She saved your life."
"Really?"
"She's a talented little girl."
"Where's my beautiful baby?"
"I'm right here Daddy!" she said with a mouthful of bacon.
"Come here, baby girl." She ran over to him, giving him a hug as he picked her up to give her a kiss on the cheek. "Thank you so much, my beautiful Sara-Bell."
"I love you, Daddy."
"I love you, too."
"Can I finish eating, Daddy?" Jacob laughed at her, probably from the bacon she still had in her mouth.
"Yes you can," he said putting her down.
"Thank you, Daddy!" She ran back over to the TV and continued eating her food.
"How do you feel?"
"Better. I'm still a little sore. Though I would feel a lot better if you--" I put my finger to his lips to silence him.
"You don't even have to ask." I leaned down and pressed my lips to his. He kissed me back, cradling my face in his hands. I broke the kiss to look at him.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
"So, tell me. How exactly did Sara-Bell save my life?"
"Like I said, she's talented. Carlisle said she has my power, but since she also has a gene from you, she got another ability. He said that since you can heal quickly, that she can too, but she can also heal others."
"Okay. But, what about Alice? She somehow helped clear her visions."
"Carlisle said he had a theory about that. He said that since she has they ability to heal, then she can clear Alices visions somehow. He thinks it has something to do with also having my ability, since we can show our memories we send a message to whoever it is we're showing it to, then he thinks she can combine her two abilities to heal someone who's just around her in the room, just like she healed Alice's visions so she could see better."
"Wow. Where is everyone?"
"Back at the house. I told them we'd be there after you wake up and Sara-Bell's had her breakfast, but only if you're up to it."
"Yeah, it's fine."
"Are you sure? You're not too soar or anything?"
"I'm fine," he said getting up from the couch.
"Okay. Get dressed and we'll leave. You too, Sara-Bell," I said, as I put her dishes away.
"Yes, Momma!" She and Jacob ran up the stairs together.
***
We got to the house, Sara-Bell running in, going over to Esme, who was drawing on the couch. Mom and Dad were at the piano, Dad teaching Mom a new piece for her to play, Alice and Rosalie were lying across Jasper and Emmett's laps as they were watching the game. Esme was now showing Sara-Bell watch she drew, Sara-Bell taking her pencil a starting to draw on her paper, Carlisle who I heard in the other room. Jacob went over to Esme and Sara-Bell, picking up Sara-Bell and putting her on his lap. I wento over to my mom and dad, giving them both a kiss on the cheek. Dad gave me a kiss on my forehead. I sat next to my mother, playing with her, as my dad went to the kitchen where Carlisle was. After only a few minutes, they came out to join everyone. My mom and I stopped playing, walking over to where everyone else was. I sat next to Jacob and Sara-Bell, who was drawing beautifully on Esme sketch pad, as Alice, suddenly, began to have a vision.
"What is it?" Jasper asked.
"Nothing. Just Jessie and Leah coming over with there newborn baby. Turns out the future changed and they had the baby late last night."
"That means I get a new best friend!" aske Sara-Bell excitedly. Everyone in the room laughed, as Sara-Bell went back to her drawing, and I kissed her on the forehead.
"They'll be here in less than three minutes."
When Jessie and Leah got to the house, they were carrying their littke baby girl. Her name was Kelsi. She had straight, dark hair and blue eyes. She reached for Sara-Bell, still drawing in Esme's sketch book, when she saw her, so Leah handed Kelsi to me. Sara-Bell showed her what she was drawing and even tried to teach her by giving her the pencil, although she only drew squiggles and lines. I never really had a best friend before Jacob. Leah and I have definitely become very close, and apparently so have Sara-Bell and Kelsi. I had my wonderful family, my beautiful baby, my best friend, and my amzing husband that I loved.
There couldn't be a better feeling of life than how I was feeling now.
