Summary: What did Esme think of Edward and Bella?
AN: Thinking about making a series but this will be a one shot.
Edward and Bella.
I can't pretend I wasn't nervous at first. So many things could have gone wrong.
I wasn't worried for the reasons the others were. I wasn't concerned what a mistake would mean for our life in Forks. I was worried what it would do to Edward.
Edward- my first son. With his morals so much like my Carlisle and his heart of gold- good kind Edward would never get over killing that girl.
But Edward insisted he could do it. He looked me in the eye and pleaded with me. He promised that nothing would go wrong.
I had to believe him. He's my Edward and he doesn't lie.
When I met her I knew. There was something about her. She was genuine and unassuming. She was humble and kind. Bella Swan was smart and beautiful. I could see why Edward loved her.
But the best part? She loved him too. When she looked at him I could see it. I look at Carlisle the same way. It's the way Rose looks at Emmett and Alice looks at Jasper. And it's all I ever wanted for him. I wanted him to be loved and understood.
After all the awful things that happened Bella is a part of our family now. I wouldn't trade her for anything.
I won't say I wasn't worried at first because I was. I didn't want my gentle son to get a broken heart. But I know now Edward and Bella are in it for the long haul and it brings unspeakable joy to my heart.
