Full Summary: After an unfortunate incident concerning her sister, Esme, and brother-in-law, Carlisle, Bella finds herself the 19-year-old guardian of her 2 six-year-old nieces, Rosalie and Alice. She thought the situation couldn't get anymore complicated or stressful—but the world just loves proving our favorite klutz wrong, doesn't it? What happens when an angst-y, unfamiliar, but gorgeous, boy turns up, furious and ranting about not being picked up from the airport?
Prologue: Unfortunate News
BPOV
I sat on the couch with my head in my hands, breathing heavily. The house phone clattered to the floor, at least loud enough to be heard by my nieces, Rosalie and Alice.
"Auntie Bella?" I heard their musical voices call to me. A sob escaped my lips. There was absolutely no way I could break this news to them.
A few tentative, cautious footsteps later, I felt the cushions on either side of me squish down, and my two 6-year-old nieces' arms wrap around my sides, and then I broke. Crying full out now, I wrapped my arms around the girls and pulled them into my lap. Thank heavens for their maturity for their age, because they just sat there and comforted me—when the situation should be switched.
"Just let it all out, Auntie. Let it all out." I heard Alice whisper, like her own tears were threatening to spill over. Crap. Alice had the uncanny ability to know what was going to happen…
"Auntie, what's wrong? Why are you sad?" Rosalie cried.
Suddenly the phone rang. I felt the couch shift and Alice say to her sister, 'Leave it.' The phone went to the message machine—
Which I stupidly forgot was on speaker.
"Ms. Swan, this is the police department. We have urgent news concerning your sister and brother-in-law, Esme Cullen and Dr. Cullen. Miss, could you please come to the Virginia Mason Hospital in Seattle? They've been in a car crash."
A/N: Welcome to another prompt! Sorry for being dark for so long, I had some stuff to take care that took me away from my resources to write.
So, if you didn't look at my little message on my profile, you'll know that I'm having a bit of trouble getting past a few nasty cases of writer's block in my stories. Right now, I'm uploading all my prompts. But, if you want me to extend one, PM or review the prompt you want extended and I'll be sure to get to work on it right away.
I'm trying to get back on track with my writing after such a long absence, but it's not working as planned. I mean, just like I can't read 2 books at a time, I can't write 2 either. The problem is that I can't decide which story to continue. And what do I do? Add more stories!!! I'm an idiot, aren't I?
Anyways, I'm going to upload one, maybe two more, prompt(s) tonight, but unless I get request for working on one of my other stories, I'm going to keep working on this one. (And I have a good strategy now—I'm writing up the plot line before writing the story!!!)

P.S.—
To avoid writer's block this time, I want to take a look at beta readers. If you have a recommendation, I'd be happy to hear it and check it out, and if you want to be a pre-public-upload reviewer, let me know! I'd love to get another point of view on my stories.
