I Don't own "Twilight", sadly.
SM Owns All.
But enjoy! =)
SUMMARY - Edward can't stop thinking about the beautiful brunette he met at his nephew's daycare and will stop at nothing until he can get to know her. Is the Dr. ready for all the baggage that comes along with the beautiful woman? Or will he give up and just stand by, watching the world the woman lives in slowly crumble down around her. AH, M, Cannon Pairings.
"My Sisters' Child"
Edward POV
I reluctantly rolled out of bed and readied myself for the day. I only had an hour and a half till I had to be at the office and I still had to drop Tyler off at the day care. I showered quickly and ran some gel through my hair. I threw on a pair of black pants and a blue button up and slipped on my shoes. Grabbing a pop tart and my on the go coffee cup I ran out the door. After being in the car for less then five minutes I heard the buzzing of my blackberry sitting in my center console, sighing I picked it up.
"Hello Alice." I said as cheery as possible.
"Hi Edward. Where are you at?" she said giddily.
"On my way to mom and dads, Alice. Where are you?" I asked jokingly.
"At work silly, you know that." she giggled.
"How are those bratty snot nosed kids?" I joked.
"You tell me. I got the healthy ones."
"Ha Ha." I taunted. "Jealous."
"I'm not jealous Dr. Cullen. Just stating the facts." Alice sang.
"Ok Teacher." I chuckled.
"Anyways, bring Tyler from moms house and Jazzy will pick him up from here after he gets off later."
"Ok Alice. He'll be at the daycare within half an hour, hopefully." I sighed.
"Thanks E, I really appreciate it. It won't happen often. I just wanted to get here early for my first day at the daycare and Jasper worked the night shift at the hospital."
"Don't worry Alice, not a problem. We'll be there soon. Bye."
"Buh-bye"
I hung up my phone and drove the 10 minute drive to my parents house in comfortable silence. The good thing about staying in Seattle after Med school was staying close to my family. They were never more then 20 minutes away.
Oy!
I pulled around the round about in front of my parents house and jumped out of my Volvo. I didn't even make it up to the walkway before Tyler was hanging onto my leg.
"Ty, what sup little man?"
"Uncle Edwurd. Gramma Esme made pancakes." he smiled his toothy grin that consisted of his 2 front teeth missing.
"Yea, were they good?" I asked as my mom stepped out the door.
"Super duper good!" he smiled.
"You're not just saying that cause grandma is out here, right?" I chuckled.
"Uh uh, dats lying, momma doesn't like lying." he said wide eyed with his sparkly blues shining.
"That's right Tyler. No lying." my mom smiled as she ran her fingers through Tyler's curly black hair,
"Alright lil man. Let's head to school your momma's waiting for you." I said as I picked Tyler up in my arms. "Say goodbye to grandma."
"Bye gamma. See ya waiter!"
"Bye handsome boy. Have a great first day of kindergarten. " my mom smiled. "Bye Edward have a great day at the office."
"Bye mom, Love you." I said as I hugged my mom and kissed her cheek.
"Love you too boys. Bye."
I strapped Tyler into the booster seat my mom gave me and headed off to the school. It was Alice's first day at Sunshine Academy, she was teaching the two & three year olds. Tyler is in the big boy class, or at least that's what Alice and Jasper call it. He was turning five in a few months so this was his last year at the daycare. I parked and put Ty up on my shoulders.
"Let's go find your momma so she can show us where your big boy class is." I said as I poked his sides.
"Kay." he laughed.
I punched in my code into the computer to clock Tyler in and opened the front door and offered the lady up front a smile and a nod.
"What color is mommies door?" I asked Tyler seeing if he remembered.
"Um,…BLUE!" he yelled as we reached the blue door with a sign out front that read "Mrs. Whitlock's Class."
"Good job little man." I chuckled as I took him down from my shoulders.
"Oh my goodness I heard you all the way out here." My sister giggled as she swung the BLUE door open.
"Momma!" Tyler squealed as he sprung to his mom.
"Oh my baby. I missed you so much." her tinkling laugh was contagious.
"Well I'm going to head to the office. I have my first patient at nine and it's almost eight."
"Oh your first "patient" how old is your patient five?" Alice laughed.
"HEY, don't hate my job, I'm sorry I'm not a world renowned doctor like Dad or a surgeon like Jazz. I'm a damn good pediatrician though." I flashed her my crooked smile letting her know I was just kidding.
"Language Edward, and you know I was just joking. You're a great pediatrician."
"Thanks. Well I'm heading out."
"Wait, I have a few kids that showed up early, can you walk him to his class. I can't leave, my aid isn't here till ten." she said sadly.
"Of course I can." I smiled.
I grabbed Tyler up in my arms and made flying noises as I walked quickly down that hall.
"What color door little man?" I asked seriously this time. I honestly couldn't remember.
"Um, I think, Um, GREEN?" he asked confused.
"You don't remember Ty?" I asked worried. I didn't want to drop him off at the wrong class.
"I member the teacher. Not da door Uncle Edwurd."
"Ok well let's check green." I said as I looked at the door with "Ms. Stanley's Class" written on it. I knocked and the door swung open quickly.
"Well hello there." Ms. Stanley had an obnoxiously loud voice and I had to stop myself from rolling my eyes. "Who do we have here?" she smiled.
"Um hi, this is my nephew Tyler Whitlock, I'm not sure if this is his class." I smiled awkwardly.
"Hm, I believe so." she smiled. "I didn't catch YOUR name though." she smiled too cheekily.
"Ed- Edward?" I stumbled out more as a question. Is this woman attempting to hit on me?
"Oh well hello Edw-"
"Uncle Edwurd dis is not my teacher." Tyler mumbled.
"Sorry, can you check your roster and see if Tyler is on your list?" I asked annoyed as I pinched the bridge of my nose. I need to get to work people!
"Hmm, you said Whitlock was the last name?" she asked as she skimmed her papers.
"Yes."
"Nope, not in my class, he is in the room with the red door." she smiled hugely. "But it was nice meeting you Tyler, and VERY nice meeting you Edward." she emphasized.
"Mhm, likewise." I said as I maneuvered Tyler across the hall to the red door. The door read "Mrs. Cheney's Class." I knocked lightly and the door slowly opened.
"Oh Tyler, it's so great to see you again." a very nice sweet voice said, unlike the annoying woman across the hall. She crouched down and patted Tyler's back and then stood up. "Hello I'm Angela Cheney." she smiled as she shook my hand.
"Hi, I'm Edward Cullen, Tyler's uncle."
"So great to meet you Edward. Well Tyler you want to head in and start the day? I got a lot of fun planned for us today." Mrs. Cheney said.
"Oh great." Tyler said excitedly. "Bye Uncle Edwurd see you later." Tyler said as I bent down and gave him a hug. He went sprinting into the classroom while Angela flashed me a smile and a wave and headed back into her class. Thank God Mrs. Cheney was his teacher instead of Ms. Stanley. Alice dodged a bullet there, I thought as I headed back toward Alice's class to say goodbye.
I whistled to myself as I walked slowly down the long hallway. I felt my breath catch in my throat as I saw a beautiful brunette standing in the doorway of Alice's classroom. As I got closer I saw she was getting ready to leave. I grabbed the door she was holding open with her backside and saw her embracing a beautiful little girl.
"Oomph." she squeaked as she felt the door maneuver from behind her.
"Oh I'm sorry, didn't mean to startle you." I smiled sheepishly.
"Oh not a problem." her angelic voice broke through as she turned her eyes toward the person who moved the door. Her beautiful deep brown eyes pierced through me and I was immobile. Alice clearing her throat broke through the daze this woman had me under. I saw the woman's cheeks take on a red blush and she ducked her head from me and turned back to the little girl at her side.
Me on the other hand could not remove my eyes from her. She was gorgeous. Unlike any other being I had ever laid my eyes on. Her eyes were deep brown and doe like, beautifully clear and golden like, something else I noticed was they were full of emotion, I couldn't place what emotion that was though. Her beautiful skin tone was milky white and she had beautiful plumped pink lips, and long wavy brown hair. She had a petite body, and she barely reached my shoulders, she had to be no taller than 5'3. She was perfect.
I blinked my eyes quickly noticing I had been staring way to long, but the beauty didn't notice. She was still talking to the little girl at her side, but now they were eye level, the woman had bent down to talk to the child and now I could see over her head where my sister was staring daggers at me. She gave me a "what the hell" kind of look and all I could do was shrug. I have no idea Alice, I couldn't explain it if I tried, I thought to myself as the beauty rose to her feet.
"Call me if she give's you any trouble Mrs. Whitlock. This is her first day at school and I don't know how she will behave." the angelic like woman said. I stole a quick look at her left hand and noticed no wedding ring or engagement ring accompanied it. I wanted to slap myself in the face, being so conniving like this was never like me.
"Oh don't worry Ms. Swan, I'm sure she won't be any trouble." Alice smiled.
Ah, Ms. Swan she had a last name. Swan, like the beautiful Swan. What the fuck. Where is this bull shit coming from?
"I hope so." Ms. Swan sighed. "Mr. McCarthy will be here to pick her up later on today."
Mr. McCarthy huh? So she's taken. This is not good.
"Okay. Don't worry about it Ms. Swan." Alice smiled.
"Thank you Mrs. Whitlock. Have a great day. Bye baby I'll see you later." Ms. Swan smiled as she placed a kiss on the little girls cheek. I stole a peek at the little girl and she was almost a splitting image of the woman. Long brown wavy hair, milky white skin, only difference was the little girl had dark brown, almost black eyes, they weren't as brownish golden as the woman's, but the little girl was beautiful. Alice waved off the woman and picked up the little girl that tried to hide away in Alice's shoulder.
"What was that Edward?" Alice freaked as she bounced the little girl slightly on her shoulder.
"What are you talking about?" I played dumb.
"You were gawking at my students parent." Alice huffed.
"I wasn't gawking Alice." I mumbled.
"Whatever." she tisk'd.
"She was beautiful though." I smiled.
"Yes she is. Very confusing, but beautiful." Alice sighed.
"Confusing?" I asked.
"Yea, I haven't figured her out yet. All my other parents are open books once I meet them. Isabella, not so much." Alice said dejectedly.
"Isabella?" I asked.
"Mhm, Isabella Swan."
"And the child?" I asked.
"Oh well this here is Sophia." Alice smiled as she looked down at the little girl.
"Sophia Breeana Swan." the little girl spoke.
"Well hi there Ms. Sophia. I'm Edward." I smiled my smile that usually broke through kids shells.
"Hi." she smiled as she slowly lifted her head from Alice's shoulder.
"How old are you Sophia?" I asked in a sweet voice. She blushed as Isabella had earlier and hid her face again.
"She's three and very shy." Alice whispered.
I nodded my head and stole a glance at my watch.
8:40, where the hell did the time go?
"Damn, I gotta go I'm running late." I groaned.
"Language." Alice sang. "Ok have a good day, thanks again for bringing Tyler." she said as she gave me a one armed hug as she cradled Sophia in the other.
"Not a problem." I said as I kissed her cheek. "See ya." I said as I tossed her a wink and ran out the door.
Today was already off to a rocky start.
