Chapter 1: Remembering

BPOV

"Love, time to wake up," I heard a smooth velvety voice call me from my sleep. I slowly opened my eyes to see a pair of emerald green ones staring back at me. I let a smile creep on my lips and moved up a little to taste the full waiting lips of my husband. After a few moments he pulled away with a small grin and I heard him chuckle.

"Morning," I glanced at the clock that was on the bed side table. My mood did a complete 180 when I saw what the red numbers read. I closed my eyes and opened them a few times, just to be sure I read the time right. I looked, no glared at my husband and asked, "Why, may I ask are you waking me up at 4:30 in the morning?" His body stiffened slightly knowing full well that I hated to be woken up this early on a Saturday morning, or any day of the week for that matter.

"Well," he began, "Jasper just called, Alice went into labor and wants us to come to the hospital." Edward said. Once again my mood did a 180, my anger with him forgotten as well as all of my sleepiness. I sprang out of bed and began running around our bedroom, shouting at him.

"Why, didn't you tell me that in the first place? How long ago did she call? Did her water break? Do your parents know? Has Em and Rose been called?" I kept shouting these questions at him while I tried to find something suitable to wear to the hospital. I finally made it to our huge walk in closet, courtesy of Alice, of course, when I felt two arms wrap around me.

"Clam down Love. I didn't want to shake you awake and tell you, Jasper called at 4:20, so it's only been about 10 minutes. I didn't ask him if her water broke, and yes both my parents and Emmett and Rosalie know. Get dressed and we will be at the hospital in 10 minutes." I sighed in relief; he kissed me on my cheek and went to change himself.

I fumbled around until I found a pair of jeans. I slid them on and let out a groan. I couldn't get them to zip up! "Edward!" I called, "I thought we moved all of my normal clothes out of our closet last week!?" I looked down at my belly, which used to flat and smooth, but now it was my little baby bump. That's right I was three months pregnant, and for being only in my first trimester I felt that I was huge. When my regular clothes had begun to get to tight, Edward and I packed them up and moved them to the attic, or so I thought.

Edward came back into the closet, bent down and kissed my stomach, "Sorry baby, I forgot to say good morning to you too." This is something he did every morning and night, or anytime he left me for that matter. I normally found it cute but not this morning, my pregnancy hormones were on the frits. He looked up at me and realized this, "We did Love, but you claimed wanted to keep this jeans in here because you said they still fit last week. Why don't you just up on your Chanel sweat suit?" He said this with caution, but I knew he was right. It was my idea to keep these, because they did fit just last week!

"Am I supposed to be this big already? I mean both Rose and Alice were still in their regular clothes when they were four months along! I am only three, and I am bigger than either them were! Can we have Dr. Ryan take a look at me later today at the hospital?" I pouted to him. I knew that I was over reacting, but really I was much bigger than either of them were or any other women who was in her first trimester.

Edward sighed, "I guess we could do that, but I do agree with you, you do seem farther along than three months. I'll page Colin when we get to the hospital; maybe we got the conception date wrong." I gave him a look. "What?"

"What do you mean what? I don't think we got the conception date wrong. We both know when it happened." I gave him a knowing look.

"Well, we both think we know when it happened. I am almost 100 percent sure it was after Carter's birthday celebration, but we had been trying for a good few months before hand too. Maybe it happened earlier, that could explain why you are so big. We will know later today hopefully, but now it is after 5 and Alice will freak if we don't get to the hospital soon." He gave me a quick peck on the lips, before taking my hand in his and heading down the stairs to the garage.

As we pulled out of the drive way I let my thoughts consume me. He was right; it could have been an earlier conception date. Hell, we had been trying to get pregnant for almost two years. We make the decision shortly after Carter, Rose and Emmett's son was born. I looked at the love radiating off of the both Em and Rose and wanted to feel the same things they were feeling. I remember glancing at Edward before he said, "I want one." Needless to say we began trying that night.

A few months later, I found out I was going to be getting my first book published, so we put our family on hold while I traveled the states promoting my book. Edward and I decided that it was good idea at the time. He was also busy with his job at the hospital. He had just become a resident and was working a lot of hours. We were both happy just being and aunt and uncle for that time being.

Then about eight months ago, when Alice and Jasper announced they were expecting, we started to try again. It may seem like decided to try again just because we would have been the only one in Edward's family not to be parents, but it wasn't. My book had taken off and was a huge best seller. I was now on the third installment of the series. And Edward had been a resident for a little over a year, and was finally not need 24/7 like was before. We both knew we were ready to have children.

So when we finally got pregnant, just before Christmas, Carter's birthday was November 20. We decided to tie it in with their presents as well. I still remember it like it was yesterday.

*Flashback*

My entire family was sitting in the Cullen's living room, Carter had just opened his last gif, being the only grandchild/nephew he had was spoiled, it was from Edward and I, and we got him a little tike jeep, just like the one Emmett drove.. His eyes lit up and he came running over to the love seat where we sitting, he jumped into my lap and gave me a big hug and wet kiss, then the same to Edward.

"Thank you! Now I drive to work, jus like daddy!" We all laughed. Even though he was just a little over two he was very smart and had a wide vocabulary.

"You're welcome little man, Auntie Bella and I thought you might like it!" I gave Carter a kiss on the cheek and went to my purse to get the last four gifts for the couples. I handed the first one to my parents, the next the Esme and Carlisle, Edward's parents, and one to Emmett and Rosalie, and the last to Alice and Jasper.

My mom gave a weird look, "You two didn't need to get all of us our own gifts! You gave us one already!"

Esme chimed in too, "Yeah you know the rules, one gift for each person per couple, aside from Carter of course."

"Yes, mom we know the rules but this isn't a gift that you will want to keep once you all open them, its more of an announcement that Bella and I have, and we thought given the Christmas spirit, we would do it this way." Edward said smoothly. By now all eyes were on Edward and me. "Will you all just open the gifts, please?"

Slowly everyone unwrapped the boxes and opened the lid and gasped. The room was silent until Rose spoke up, "Is this what I think it is? Are you guys pregnant?!"

A huge smile broke across my mother Renee's face as I replied, "Yes, we are! We found out last week and decided to tell you all as an added bonus present!" Then in a matter of seconds, my mom, Esme, Alice and Rose all came and hugged me, while the men gave Edward a hand shake.

After some happy tears were cried by us women Alice said, "I'm really happy for you two, but couldn't you tell us with like a picture of a stork or something, I really didn't want a stick that you pied on Bella. I mean, this is just gross." Everyone joined in laughter as we cleaned up all the paper from the gifts.

*End Flashback*

I smiled at the memory, as we pulled into the hospital. I was glad that in a few more months I would finally be a mom. It had been a long time in the making. I was relieved though at the moment at being an aunt again. I loved Carter so much and couldn't wait to spoil my best friend's child. Alice and I had been best friends for many years, it's actually how I met Edward, he one of Alice's older brothers.

*Flashback*

I moved to Forks, Washington at the start of my freshmen year in high school. Alice and I became fast friends. One day we were eating lunch we I saw him for the first time. He looked like one of those Abercrombie and Finch male models when he walked into the lunch room. His hair was a strange color almost bronze which was in a due that could only be described as sex hair. He was easily the most beautiful human I had ever laid my eyes on. My dreams were crushed when I saw a knock out strawberry blonde skip to his side and kiss him full on the mouth. Alice noticed my staring and said, "That's my other brother, Edward, and his slut of a girlfriend Tanya, their juniors, and everyone favorite couple to drool over. Do you want to meet him Bella, because I told him about you and he really wants to meet you! He said he felt left out last week when Emmett, Rose, Jasper and I were all talking about you!"

I blushed a deep red. Alice knew me all too well already. As I looked at the table around me I felt left out. Alice was dating a senior, Jasper who was best friends with her oldest brother Emmett who was dating Jasper's younger sister Rosalie, who was a junior. I really wanted to meet Edward, but knew that I would still feel like a fifth wheel with my friends, or now a seventh wheel in my case. Before I could answer her, she called him over.

"Edward, I would like you to meet Bella, Bella this is my other brother Edward." I looked up and we locked eyes, and I was lost in pool of green. I don't know how long we looked into each other's eyes before he said, "Well, it's nice to finally meet the infamous Bella Swan I have heard so much about from my friends. Looks like we will get to know each other better this weekend, I hear you are have been invited to our Friday night movie event."

I blushed even redder. "Yeah, I guess we will. I look forward to getting to know you better too." In more ways than one, I added in my head. He and Tanya sat with us for the remainder of lunch, when the bell rang; he leaned over and whispered in my ear.

"I hope we get to know each other, better than Alice knows you." And with that he walked away.

*End Flashback*

A month later, he broke up with Tanya, and asked me to be his girlfriend. It was a huge shock to the entire school when he did this. Well everyone but Alice, Rose, Emmett and Jasper. Edward and I became fast friends, and flirted non stop with each other during that month. Alice claimed it to be love at first sight, and we agreed with her. Each of us felt a strong pull to the other, something that couldn't be ignored. We have been together ever since, and the six of us the best of friends/family too.

As we walked into the waiting room I could hear Rose and Emmett having and argument.

"Emmett for the last time, I don't know which hurts more between child birth and being kicked in the groin. And no one will ever know because a man can't give birth and a woman will never have a dick!!" Rose said a little louder than she intended too.

CJ, Carter's nickname, rushed to me and I picked him and rested him on my hip. "Mommy is really mad at Daddy. She been yelling at him for long time!" I laughed, not only at what he said, but Emmett had wanted to know the same thing when Rose was giving birth to CJ.

"Glad to know some things never change with you Em. How is she doing?" Edward asked his brother.

"As far as we know she is fine. I can hear her ever once in a while shouting profanities at Jazz, but that's to be expected. How are you feeling Bells, you look huge!"

Edward, Rose and I all rolled our eyes, and I noticed CJ was trying to do it too. "She's fine Em. Bella Love, I'll go have one of the nurses page Colin to see if he can get you in while Alice is still in labor. And I should probably go check with on Jazz and see if he needs anything. Alice can't be too much a joy right now. Be back in a few." He kissed me and with that went through the doors to find Alice.

"I must say Bella, you are looking quite big for only three months, you're showing like crazy, more than Alice or I ever was." Rose pointed out, she came and took CJ from me to try and get him to sleep some more.

"I know, that's was I said to Edward this morning, and he agreed. So we are going to see if Dr. Ryan can tell why that is." As I finished and took a seat Esme and Carlisle came rushing in. Carlisle went through the same door Edward had gone through. Esme looked so excited; she was bouncing like Alice usually is.

"We aren't too late are we? I don't have my second grandbaby yet do I?"

"No, you made it. She is still in labor." Rose told her.

Carlisle peaked his head between the doors, "If you all want to come back and see her you can, she said that it was okay." We all got up and head back to Alice's room. As we walked into her room, I saw that she had a thin layer of sweat, and looked, surprisingly, giddy.

"How are you feeling Ali? You look great!" I asked her taking a spot on Edward's lap, who was seated in the chair.

"Oh, I feel great! I am so excited to finally get to see my baby! I think I will be ready for another one after. . ." she trailed off, sucked in a huge breath, and grabbed Jasper's hand and screamed. Jasper kissed her and whispered I love you's to her while she had her contraction. "GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF ME JASPER! THAT IS HOW THIS HAPPENED IN THE FIRST PLACE. I AM IN SO MUHC PAIN RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OF YOU AND YOUR GODDAMN COCK, YOU WILL BE LUCKY IF YOU GET A RELEASE EVER AGAIN IN YOUR LIFE!!!!" she screamed at him. Poor Jasper, who knew Alice would be some what bipolar throughout her entire pregnancy, but he continued to kiss her and tell whisper things to her until her contraction was done.

"Well, let see how far along you are Alice." Dr. Ryan came in and said. "Alice you are just five centimeters now so it will be a little while longer I'm sorry to tell you."

"Oh, that's just fine. My baby will come out when it's good and ready too. I would be fine if he decided to stay in there another 20 hours! The process of child birth is so amazing, we're enjoying every minute of it aren't we Jazz?" The look on Jasper face when Alice said 20 hours was of complete horror, but he quickly recovered and smiled nodding his head in agreement. The entire room seemed to be in a fit of trying to hold back the giggles.

"I'm glad to hear that Alice. I'll be back in another half hour to check things out. Bella, Edward, want to get that ultrasound done now?" I smiled and got up off of Edward and we made our way to another room, where I would get my ultrasound done. "You are looking quite large for just being three months Bella. When Edward told me I didn't believe him, but I do now. Let's take a peak at what's going on with your little one."

I felt cold gel being put on my stomach, and then Dr. Ryan brought the wand over and moved it over my stomach. I was quite nervous while he did this, I hoping to find out what was wrong, or just be told that I was having a huge baby.

He looked at the screen for quite a while, before smiling and looking at both Edward and me. I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding, Edward did the same.

"The baby is fine then I take it Dr. Ryan?" I asked still a bit nervous.

"Bella, please call me Colin, I work with your husband and have known you both for years. And yes the babies are both fine." All of my nerves went away when he told me the babies were fine. Wait, babies??!?!

I looked over at Edward and his expression mirrored mine. "Colin, did you say babies?" Edward asked.

"Yes, I did. You have two healthy babies. The two of you are having twins!"
