Bonding Gone Wrong Chapter 3: Jerseys and Revelations, a twilight fanfic

A/N: This part is mostly like an interlude between the action in the second part and the action in the fourth part. I hope it explains what happened as a result of the car ride. Also, a little bonding before the naughtiness that makes the bonding go wrong. Hope it doesn't disappoint.

Bonding Gone Wrong

Part 3: Jerseys and Revelations

Thirty Minutes Later…

Finally, thought Carlisle as he saw the stadium come into view.

"Remember what I said," warned Carlisle as they pulled into the stadium parking.

"Yes sir," was murmured throughout the car.

After swerving to avoid the medium he'd pulled the car over. He then had pulled Emmett, Edward and Cade out of the back seat. He'd then rearranged the sitting arrangements. Jasper who'd been up front with him had taken over the driving. Edward had then joined Jasper upfront. Cade and Emmett had then returned to the backseat but he sat between them. The rest of the drive had been peaceful, no thanks to the lecture and threat of more serious consequences he'd warned about. Carlisle sighed, he wasn't about to let this day be ruined.

"Dad," said Cade quietly.

"What is it Cade?" asked Carlisle as Jasper parked the car.

"Are you still going to get me a jersey?" asked Cade.

"Yes, I'm still going to get you a jersey but I expect you and your brothers to behave understand?" said Carlisle as he looked at all his sons.

"Yes," was the response echoed as they got out of the car.

"Wow it's huge!" exclaimed Cade as he looked over at the stadium. Cade's enthusiasm seemed to lighten the mood as the boys took turns telling of what stadium they thought was the biggest.

Carlisle walked behind his sons as they continued there discussion. He watched the other families as they too made there way to the gates. He smiled as he heard a boy questioning his father about baseball and how it was played. He was so caught up in his observations that he failed to notice his sons waiting for him to catch up to them. It wasn't until Cade put his hand in his that he looked over at them. He smiled at them as they continued walking next to him.

"Dad, did you ever go to a game with your dad?" asked Cade.

"No, I didn't," said Carlisle as he looked down at his son.

"Why?" Cade asked surprised.

"Cause baseball didn't exist in the time of the dinosaurs," said Emmett laughing.

A couple of people who were walking by them overheard Emmett's comment and started laughing.

"Emmett," said Carlisle smiling.

"Look dad there's the team store," said Cade as he pointed to their right and started pulling Carlisle that way.

"Cade, we need to go in first then we go to the store," said Carlisle.

"But its right there," said Cade pointing once again.

"Yes, but we need to go inside the stadium first. The entrance to the store is on the inside of the stadium," explained Carlisle.

"Oh okay, let's go," said Cade as he pulled Carlisle once again.

Once inside the stadium they all headed over to the team store.

"Hey Cade I found the perfect one for you," said Emmett while holding up a pink child size jersey.

"Moron," said Cade.

"Oh look better yet here's…" started Emmett as he continued to search the girl's section only to be cut-off by Carlisle.

"It's not too late for us to go home," stated Carlisle as he looked at Emmett.

"Sorry," said Emmett as he walked over to join Edward and Jasper.

"All right Cade, see anything you like?" asked Carlisle as he joined his son in the boy's section.

"I'm looking," said Cade as he browsed the racks of jerseys.

"Okay take your time," said Carlisle smiling as he walked over to browse the men's section. He wanted Cade to like what he picked out so he'd wear it unlike the one's Alice had gotten him.

"I picked the one I want," said Emmett as he held up a jersey. He then walked over to Jasper and offered his expertise on what he should choose.

"I think I found one dad," said Edward as he joined Carlisle.

"That's good son," said Carlisle as he searched for his own.

"That's one cool," said Emmett having joined Carlisle and Edward.

"I prefer this one," said Carlisle as he pulled one of the racks.

"Kind of old fashioned don't you think? I don't think they actually use pinstripes anymore," said Edward.

"Eddie you're forgetting were talking about the ancient one here he's bond to pick something from the olden days," laughed Emmett.

Carlisle ignored the jab at his age as he walked over to Jasper.

"Find something you like?" asked Carlisle.

"No, not yet," said Jasper as he looked at the jersey in Carlisle's hand.

"All right I'm going to check on Cade," said Carlisle.

Carlisle walked to the other side of the store where the children's section was. He found Cade easily he was literally in the same place he'd left him a few minutes ago.

"It's too hard. I can't decide. There's so many," complained Cade.

Carlisle smiled. Yes, one could get overwhelmed in here he thought.

"Is that what your getting?" asked Cade as he eyed the jersey in Carlisle's hand.

"Yes, I know it's old-fashioned but I like it," said Carlisle.

"Is it okay if….ummm…I," stammered Cade.

"What is it son?" asked Carlisle. What ever was the matter he wondered.

"Hey, Cade look it's just like dads. Isn't it nice? It's in your size too," said Edward as he joined his brother and father brandishing a child size version of Carlisle's choice.

Carlisle looked at Edward and saw the knowing look on his face and realized what was going on.

"Is that the one you want Cade?" asked Carlisle.

"Yeah, its okay isn't it? I mean it's like yours, if you want I can get a different one," said Cade carefully.

"No, it's perfectly alright," said Carlisle as he took Edward's offering and offered it to Cade.

"Cool, I'm gonna see how it looks," said Cade as he ran off towards the mirrors.

"He was embarrassed to tell you he wanted one like yours. Especially since he wanted it because it's the one you choose." explained Edward quietly so that only Carlisle heard him.

"Really?" asked Carlisle.

"Yes, he wants to do everything you do. Jasper on the other hand thinks you're the best thing that ever happened to him and hopes to one day be just like you," explained Edward quietly as he gestured behind Carlisle.

Carlisle turned at Edwards's gesture and saw Jasper trying on the exact jersey that he'd chosen. Next to him was Cade offering his advice as he held on tightly to his mini-version. If he could he would be teary-eyed by know. He'd never realized his children looked up to him like that.

"Of course we do. You're the best dad and we love you," said Edward as he joined his brothers.

The next part is done but I'm not happy with it so I'm tweaking it. I hope to have it up very soon. Here's a preview:

"We are leaving," stated Carlisle quietly.

"Why?" whined Emmett.

"I don't think I need to explain why do I?" asked Carlisle angrily as he looked at Cade.
