Chapter 15
Bella's POV
"What did you just say?"
"Your Mason's real mother. Kind of."
"What do mean? How could that even be possible?" I had no ideal what she was talking about I had only one child and that was Nessie.
"Bella love please sit down, we have something to explain to you, to everyone." Edward took Nessie from Sarina and led me to the couch, Jake had already taken a place there and I sat next to him. Nessie climbed on to my lap so she could touch all three of us.
Sarina and Mason sat in front of me. "We already know that Nessie had the ability to show others what I am thinking." Sarina said "I would like it Nessie if you could help me again this time, I think if everyone saw it they would understand better. Will you help me."
"Yes, I will help you."
"Good. Now if everyone would come closer and touch someone in front of them."
Everyone did as they were asked. I held Nessie while Edward and Jake each took one of her hands. Carlisle placed his one hand on Jakes shoulder and Esme took his other, her free hand went to Rosalie hers to Emmett, his to Alice and finally Jasper placed his free hand on Edwards shoulder. Sarina with Mason on her lap placed her hands on Nessies legs.
"I must warn you Nessie that what I am about to show you will be hard to see. Any time you want to stop, you can. Are you ready."
"Yes."
With that Sarina closed her eyes and everything changed, I was no longer in the living room but in the woods. I saw Sarina standing in the middle of a field and a shivering portal was in front of her, she was pulled through and we were standing in the living room. The vision continued until Sarina and Mason was safely back in our world.
"Wow. That was a trip." Emmett replied and I smiled at his attempt to remove the tension that filled the air.
"It sure was." Jake agreed with him.
I wanted to look at the others to see what they were thinking, but I could not remove my eyes from Mason who was staring back at me with tears in his eyes.
Some how Nessie must have knew what we wanted, she moved over to Edwards lap and before I could move Mason was on mine, his arms wrapped around my neck and his head in my hair and I wrapped my arms around him, and leaned my head into his. I could here his quiet sobs and if I could have cried I would have.
I felt Edward lean in to us his arms wrapped around the three of us, and Nessie leaned into Mason holding on to him.
It was very quiet for a time, than a booming laughter filled the room. I looked over to where it was coming from in time to see Jake fall to the floor in hysterics.
"Jake what's wrong with you?" I asked afraid he was finally loosing it.
"I just got it…he's her brother…I was right …there was something else going on." It took him a while to get it all out, in between his laughter, but when he did I joined him as did everyone else.
"What did I miss while we were gone?" Sarina asked in confusion.
I pulled my self together to answer her, "Jake was having a problem with the connection the kids seemed to have. I told him he was jealous, but he denied it, saying he just knew there was something between them he just didn't know what. Now we all do."
Understanding crossed her face and she joined us in our laughter.
"There's something else you all should know." Edward said bring us out of the moment.
"What is it, is something wrong?"
"No love, it's just that Sarina read my mind to see when Nessie was born, and at the same time I was removing her from you, Sarina was removing Mason. She considers them to be twins in a way.
"Oh, well that would explain the age." Carlisle said stepping forward. He started asking Sarina random questions but I was to interested in the kids to listen.
"Nessie can I ask you something?"
"Sure mommy what is it?"
"Why did you move to your daddy's lap when you did?"
"Mason asked me to. He wanted you." she answered me as if the answer was staring me in the face.
"What do you mean?"
"I can hear his thoughts, when he wants me to."
"Humm…" I looked at Edward and saw he was in deep thought.
"What is it?" I asked him
"I wonder, Mason do you think you can keep me out of your head?"
"I don't know, I never thought about it. I could try, if you want me to."
"Please try, I want to see if I may be on the right track about something."
"Ok." he looked at Edward and smiled.
"You didn't hear that?"
"No I didn't hear anything from you."
"I was thinking about going finishing with Charlie. And if we were going to tell him that I'm his grandson?" he had a twinkle in his eye as he talked about Charlie.
"I'm not sure if we should just yet sweetie. It maybe to much for him." I answered.
"No it want mommy, grandpa told us that he wished he had a grandson like Mason, that he wished he was my brother." Nessie was beaming she was so happy.
I looked at Edward and he at me, than we both looked at the kids. "Nessie, did you already know this. That Mason was your brother?"
"Yeah, he kind of told me today at grandpa's. He told me in my head, that way daddy wouldn't hear."
"Why did you keep it from us?"
"Because momm…she told me that she wanted to tell Edward first." Mason looked over at Sarina than back at me, confusion was clear in his eyes.
"Mason it's ok. Sarina has raised you as her own she's your mommy I know that. And I'm alright with you calling her that."
"It's not that, I was just wondering if you would mind me calling you both mommy, and Edward daddy?"
"Sweetie you can call me what ever you are most comfortable with, I'm just so happy that I know you."
He hugged me again, and than he moved around Nessie putting her on my lap, and he hugged Edward. "I have to be the luckiest boy in the world. I have two great moms, a great dad, a wonderful sister. And a whole new family to get to know." I reached over and again we were all holding onto one another.
I had not thought my life could be any greater than it was, now I knew better. I had a son, and he was wonderful just like my daughter.
"I love you mommy." Mason said into my hair, and the dry sobs took me over.
Sarina's POV
"I love you mommy." I heard Mason's muffled voice. I turned to see his face buried in Bella's hair as he was wrapped in a hug by his parents and his sister. My sudden smile caught Carlisle's attention and he turned to see them.
"Well I guess it's time that we welcome the newest member to are family" he said getting everyone's attention.
"Bout time." Emmett said bounding over to the couch his arms out stretched. "Sorry Bella but its Uncle Emmett time." He reached down and pulled Mason into a big bear hug. "Now I have one of each to spoil." he laughed.
"Ok, Ok. Hand over my new nephew now, and your live to see another day." Rosalie said stepping up to Emmett, how immediately handed Mason to her. Smiling he turned to the rest of us, "Hey I don't mess with my wife. Especially when it comes to kids."
Everyone laughed while Rose held Mason close to her. I could see his glow start to brighten. Before I knew it, Alice had him followed by Jasper, and than Esme and Carlisle. By the time they were finished and he was back in my arms he was glowing as bright as a full moon at midnight.
"Happy sweetie?" I asked him with a giggle.
"Yes I am. But I could be happier." he answered and looked over at Jacob who was standing by the staircase.
"You want me…to welcome you? Aren't you discussed by me" Jake asked confused.
"Your silly Jake. I love you…because Nessie does and that makes you a part of my new family. So…" he smiled and reached out to him.
Jake still looked confused but he walked over and carefully took Mason from me. "Don't worry I want bite." Mason said with a smirk and a quick wink. And than wrapped his arms around Jacob's neck and squeezed with everything he had. Jake smiled and hugged him backed.
Mason suddenly pushed away and looked over at Nessie and she fell into Edwards lap laughing.
"What did he say?" Bella asked her.
"I told her she was right, he is like setting almost in a fire." everyone busted out laughing.
Carlisle walked over to me and nodded for the back door, as we walked outside I looked back to see Mason back on Bella's lap, "Sarina, I have a question about what Mason said, about biting, is he…"
"Venoms?"
"Well…yes."
"Yes Carlisle he is. And by the way, you can ask me anything you want to know about him. I'll tell you everything."
"Does hunt, like us."
"Yes, he's just like Nessie in every way, except for the venom, and his power of course."
"Of course. About that, can you tell me some more about his power."
We had walked over to the edge of the porch and sat down. I took a deep breath and began telling him Mason's story.
