Chapter Two
*Masen's POV*
"Bobby, did you forget to put the dishwasher on?!" I called out to my youngest son as I opened the machine to find that none of the dishes were clean.
"Crap! Sorry bout that, Dad," Bobby said, walking over with a sheepish glance. My son ran a hand through his short brown locks, the oversized flannel he was wearing fell loose around his elbow as his cheeks turned a slight embarrassed pink.
"Oh! That's my fault, Mr. Cullen," Ellen said, walking forward as she placed a hand on Bobby's shoulder. "I asked him to help me with something."
"It's fine," I said, shaking my head. "Bobby, just do it now. Okay?"
"Sure thing, Dad," Bobby said, nodding his head at me.
"I'll help," Ellen added as the two began to do the chore together. Before I could run off to do some other sort of chore, the doorbell rang rather aggressively. Three times in fact.
"Who could that be?" I muttered dryly, walking towards the front door and opening it wide to find my niece and nephew, Izzy and Teddy. "What's up guys?" I asked, crossing my arms over my chest. "And what's so important you had to ring the doorbell three times?"
"Sorry, Uncle Mase," Teddy replied, flashing a grin at me. "Just in a rush, that's all."
"We're here for Ty," Izzy explained. "He's supposed to coming with us and Carolina to pick up Stefano, Lexie, Dru, Iris, and the rest of the family at the airport."
"Oh, right," I said, turning my head to the stairs. "Tyler! Izzy and Teddy are here for ya!"
"Coming, Dad!" Tyler shouted back as he jogged down the stairs. His voice deep as he threw on the leather jacket Jacob got him for his full grown birthday. He ran a hand through his blonde locks and flashed a smile at his cousins. "Ready?"
"Since when have you been so eager to pick up family, cousin?" Izzy inquired mischievously.
"This wouldn't have to do with a certain Bianca?" I asked my son, who's cheeks turned red. "Dru and Iris's daughter, huh?"
"I don't know what any of you are talking about," Tyler proclaimed nervously, biting his lip. "Anyway, let's head out. I want to get on the road before traffic starts."
"Oh! Wait! We wanna come!" I then turn around to see Ella making her way over. My daughter's hands were clasped with Wes's. Ella's long brown hair was very long now as her locks swayed back and forth with each step she took. Meanwhile Wes was chuckling and following closely behind her. The son of Caius now a grown man and also my daughter's mate.
"No, we won't have any room in the car for the family then, Elle," Tyler pointed out with raised eyebrows.
"We will," Ella insisted, rolling her eyes as she swung her hands back and forth with Wes.
"Why don't we invite all of the gang then?" Tyler remarked dryly. "Johnny, Lucia, Tommy…."
"As much as I'd like to get the band back together Johnny and Lucia are too busy with their kids and Tommy's still on the road with Leah," Wes remarked, looking at his watch.
"You know I was being sarcastic," Tyler pointed out, raising his eyebrows at his best friend.
"Whatever! Dude, seriously, I really want to come. I haven't seen Iris or Dru in months," Wes pleaded. "Please, man. They're basically my second pair of moms."
"Fine," Tyler said, giving in as he shook his head. "God…Why did my best friend and my sister have to be mates?"
"Hey, this'll make him your official brother so suck it up," Ella said, placing her hands on her hips.
"And?" Tyler retorted.
"Hey, let me remind you that you have the hots for my niece," Wes shouted back at him. Ella grinned at this while Tyler looked humiliated as his cheeks turned bright red.
"And let's go!" Izzy said, rolling her eyes. "We're losing daylight here people, let's go!"
"Coming!" Ella yelled back with a wild smile.
The others shook their heads at this before they all left. "Drive safe!" I called out to them before shutting the door. I then turned around to see my youngest child, Phoebe, looking up at me. Her blonde hair was pinned in a bun and she had her hands on her hips.
"Bobby broke the dishwasher again," Phoebe told me.
"Not again," I muttered, rushing forward to fix the issue and only relieved to see my wife had fixed the issue already with her magic.
"Sorry, Mom," Bobby said nervously, fidgeting with his numbs.
"It's fine, Bobby," Grace said, placing a hand on our son's shoulder. "Just…We need to show you how to do that again or something."
I turned around to look back at my daughter who was engrossed in a text she just received. "Duty calls or something?" I asked her.
"Yeah. I have to go out with Jian really quick," Phoebe said in regards to her boyfriend. "We have to pick up some stuff for Aunt Alice. You know how our auntie is."
"Alright, just don't be late," I told my daughter. "Remember we have the rehearsal dinner."
"Wouldn't miss it for the world. After all, it's practically the wedding of the century," Phoebe remarked lightly. She then pressed a kiss to my cheek before running outside to go find her boyfriend.
"Bobby, why don't you and Ellen go see if there needs to be work done at the main house?" Grace suggested, who was still dealing with our son.
"Sure thing, Mom," Bobby said, giving her a small smile. "Sorry about about the dishwasher…"
"It's fine. I'll show you again how to fix that with magic later though," Grace said, chuckling as she pressed a kiss to his cheek.
"It's okay, son. Don't worry," I told him, patting his back gently.
"Alright. Thanks guys," Bobby said, sending us a smile in response.
"See you later, Mr. and Mrs. C!" Ellen said to us before Bobby grabbed her hand and rushed out of there.
I then turned to my wife who let out a chuckle. "Hectic having all four under the same roof again, huh?"
"You could say that," I said, chuckling.
Grace and I went on to have four children, two more after Ella and Tyler. Tyler, the eldest of the grandchildren, was now fully grown and living out in Northern Canada most of the time helping out Dru with the government. He was employed in the ever growing supernatural city there as a lawyer. My son however tries to spend as much time as he can in Forks.
Tyler got to grow up in Forks and go to Forks high school. He went all four years with Lucia, Wes, Tommy, Johnny Swan, and Bo. It was sweet watching the four of them grow up together. After high school, Lucia and Johnny got married and went off to college together, and Tommy moved to Italy to be closer to his sister. Meanwhile, Wes and Tyler traveled together and would come back to grow up more with their younger cousins. They grew especially close to Teddy, Izzy, and Nora– Lily and Ethan's eldest daughter.
Meanwhile, Ella grew up more with Izzy and Sarah. My little girl was also fully grown now. She is the closest to Sarah and Bo though. Bo and her were best friends, which would then lead her to falling in love with Wes– Tyler's best friend and Bo's older brother. It only made sense for the two of them to get together. Besides, Ella has also known the whole time of Sarah's love for Bo and she and Wes have been the main orchestrators in trying to get the two together all this time.
Ella has now joined Wes in Tyler up in Canada. They love it there and the three of them share an apartment. Ella and Wes had married a few years ago, but in a way they've taken Tyler in who may be head over heels in love with Iris and Dru's daughter, Bianca.
A couple of years after Ella and Tyler were born, Grace fell pregnant again with our third child– Robert Ethan Cullen. Also known as Bobby, he looked a great deal like me with his brown, messy hair, but had Grace's blue eyes. He was a funny kid and reminded me a lot of Aidan. Bobby doesn't have a power like our other children, but takes after his mom the most being that he practices magic unlike the rest of them. The rest of our children know some magic, but their magic and witch abilities are not like Bobby's.
Bobby is dating Jackson and Maysun's only daughter, Ellen. She looked a lot like her mom, but has Jackson's curly brown hair. Maysun and Jackson weren't originally going to have children, but right before Maysun stopped having her period they decided to conceive one. Hence, Ellen Gwen Williams was born. Named after the William's brothers mother and Jackson's deceased sister in-law. Ellen was sweet and reminded me a great deal of her Aunt Jennifer. Always keeping Bobby in check. The two worked rather well together.
After our second son, Grace and I decided to have one more child. Phoebe Lillian Elizabelle Cullen, after Grace's aunt, Ava, who's middle name is Phoebe, and then my cousin and sister. Phoebe looks the most like Grace with her golden blonde hair, but has my hazel eyes. Phoebe has the most unique ability of her siblings which is the ability to manipulate thoughts. However, it doesn't work on shields so it was easy to control her ability growing up. Even though she did get into a lot of trouble and if people found out about her ability, it worried us.
Despite that, Phoebe is a free spirt and loves helping people out. Recently, we let her go on a trip to different countries to help out with sustainability and such. She went on the trip with Scarlett, Abby and Lucas' daughter, and Roan– Jennifer and Aidan's son. The two have always had a love for adventure. The trip is also where Phoebe fell in love with Meredith's son, Jian. Since then the two have been living back here in Forks.
Bobby and Phoebe still lived with us, and it was nice. The two were very close for siblings and ran in the same circle of friends with their cousins. In fact, Bobby is very close friends with Lily's daughter, Willow. Lily and I joke how the two are practically the younger versions of us, but my son embodying Lily a lot more as the more relaxed one while Willow was very uptight and always more level headed.
Grace and I raised all four of our children in Forks. During this time Grace worked at Jacob's auto shop in the office while I stuck with the stay at home dad role. I loved it and would also help Lily homeschool the kids that were homeschooled. Since then our kids have grown up and we were happy with the four.
Bobby and Phoebe still lived here so we felt like we were parenting teenagers most of the time. However, it wouldn't be long until both of them were moved out and off finding their own adventure.
"Robert and Cordelia should be here soon," Grace said, looking up at the clock on the wall. "They were driving down from Canada with Cristina and Theodore. Picking my mom and dad up along the way."
"Why can't they stay with Lucia and Johnny?" I asked, raising my eyebrows.
"Because Lucia just had a baby?" Grace pointed out. "Besides, we have space."
"We have all four kids here," I pointed out. "Not exactly a lot…"
"True, but I missed having them all here. Especially the kids," Grace confessed to me. "Our babies."
"I know," I said, rubbing her backside. "However, think of the bright side. We'll probably get grandchildren soon. Aunt Alice and even Meredith predicts it."
"Really, huh?" Grace inquired with a smirk. "Which kid?"
"I don't know, but it'll be fun, won't it?" I teased. "Won't it…Grandma?"
Grace rolled her eyes as she playfully slapped my chest. "Shut up, Grandpa."
"Say that again, Mrs. Cullen," I teased. Before Grace could react, I slung her over my shoulder causing her to erupt in a fit of giggles.
"Mase!" she cried out.
"We have some time before the kids get back. Might as well," I joked, turning her around so I was now carrying her bridal style. "It's been quite awhile with all of them home."
"Sounds like a plan. We have a few hours before the rehearsal dinner," Grace said, pressing her lips to mine. I grinned as we pulled away from our kiss before whisking my wife away into the bedroom. Life was truly good.
