"Skin on my skin, what a wonderful sin
Take your breath but you're asking for more
The tip of my finger is tracing your figure
I say good night and walk out the door"
-Ansel Elgort
"When are you going to tell Paul?" Leah asked as they walked through the forest surrounding the Cullens house.
"When I'm giving birth?" It was supposed to be a statement but came out as more of a question. "He hates me though Leah, I betrayed him." She wasn't sure if it was the fact that she was really upset or if it was the pregnancy hormones.
Demeter confirmed her pregnancy after she had won the challenges and it disqualified her chances of being Queen. She had an 'influence of man' and couldn't perform the duties of a queen if she were pregnant. It was stupid, but it was law.
She wasn't as upset as she thought she would be. She was just thankful that they couldn't strip her of her abilities.
"You're his imprint TJ, it might take some time but I'm sure he'll forgive you."
She could only hope that Leah was right.

Renesmee had been growing at an alarming rate, by now she looked like she was 10. TJ adored the little girl and her ability to show people things with a simple touch.
"TJ?" She looked up from coloring with Renesmee to see Bella and Edward smiling at her.
"What's up?"
"We were wondering if you'd like to be Renesmee's godmother?" They both smiled at her. She stood up and walked over to them.
"Seriously?" She was shocked that they didn't ask Alice or Rose. "Of course I will." She hugged them.
She knew what being a godmother meant, if something were to happen to Edward or Bella, she would take on the responsibility of raising her. It was a responsibility she was willing to take on.

"You can't fight with us." Edward said when he pulled away. She backed up and glared at him, she hated when he read her mind.
"You can't stop me. I'm her godmother now."
"But the risks-..."
"Are mine to take, and you better not tell anyone." She ended the conversation and went back to coloring.
If he thought that she was just going to sit around while everyone else laid down their lives for her goddaughter then they had another thing coming. She would protect Renesmee at all costs.

Paul had been miserable without TJ, he reverted back to how he was when he thought that she had died. Without her, he was wasting away into nothing.
Eat, train, eat, sleep
He had heard that they were all going to battle to save Renesmee against the Volturi and his nerves were on overdrive. It physically pained him when she took Jacob's side instead of his but he knew TJ, she fought for everyone especially those who couldn't defend themselves.
The smell of honeysuckle wafted through the air and he thought his mind was playing a trick on him until he heard some of the newest pack members growling outside of Sam's house. The veteran wolves rushed out to see three of their newest pack mates growling at TJ. She smelled of bloodsucker.
"Stand down!" Sam yelled. The wolves stopped but still growled at her.
"She's my imprint." They stood up from their crouching positions and moved away. "What are you doing here?" He asked her as she stood a few feet away.
"I've come to apologize, not for choosing a side but for leaving you."
He could feel his resolve breaking, yes she had hurt him but being apart like they were was killing him even more. He just wanted to live a happy life with him imprint.

"And the baby?" Sam asked.
"Alive, Aro decided that she wasn't a threat and if you'll let me, I want to come home now." She begged.
Sam looked at Paul.
"What about your title? Don't you have to go back to Greece?" Emily asked.
TJ looked down at the ground and then back at Paul. "I wasn't fit to rule. I had broken their law."
"What law?" Paul asked.
She took one of his hands and put it on her stomach. "I'm pregnant Paul."
He was in shock and just looked at her. She had an apprehensive look on her face, scared of his reaction. When it finally registered to him, he smiled wide, picked her up and spun her around.
"Are you sure?"
She nodded. "That's why I couldn't be Queen."
"I know how much you wanted it but I'm glad it didn't work out." He said as he put her down.
"Me too." She smiled.
"I'm gonna be a dad!"
