Father Knows Best

Chapter 7

I'm now 30 weeks and miserable.

It hurts to walk, sleep, sit, eat, laugh, you name it.

Poor Edward works and takes care of Reid and I, plus takes care of most of the house once his mom goes home.

Esme has been sitting with me when she can during the days or Sue brings my dad over and they'll spend time with me when Reid is at school.

Today has me at home alone because my dad has an appointment with Edward and Sue had to drive him because Edward is working a double, and Esme had a client meeting in Port Angeles. I was currently eating ice cream, a forbidden food, but I was cranky and in pain, so they could stuff it.

As I polished off the carton and walked into the kitchen I felt a tightening in my abdomen and started to swear.

There was NO fucking way I could be going into labor today.

I couldn't drive and there was no one to come get me.

I'd have to call the fucking ambulance and text Edward that it was bringing me in, shit!

I waddled my ass upstairs to at least change into something more comfortable and text Edward. He said he'd send the paramedics that he trusted and to be waiting, he'd also have his dad waiting and call his mom.

I changed and brushed my teeth and by the time I waddled downstairs and slipped on my shoes they were coming down the driveway.

They helped me into the back and onto the stretcher.

"Mrs. Cullen, we need to take your vitals and you have to lay down." the paramedic ordered. "I'm guessing Edward told you I'd be difficult?" I sighed.

"Yes ma'am." he smiled.

I grumbled but tried not to give the guy a hard time until a hard contraction hit.

"Unless you two want to be delivering twins and telling Dr. Cullen that you had to look at my vagina to do so, you better hurry the hell up!" I yelled. "Yes ma'am." the driver yelled from the front and took off.

"Mrs. Cullen, both Dr. Cullen's are here for your arrival." the driver informed me.

"Of course they are." I sighed.

"Bella! Are you alright?" the doors flew open and Edward was in the back in a heartbeat.

"Yes, but unless you want these two delivering our babies, you better get me the fuck inside." I snapped and the paramedics chuckled when Edward mumbled a 'calm down baby' to me and I proceeded to curse him out. Edward was a well respected doctor and I'd just taken him down quite a few pegs.

Once inside Edward snapped back at me "Damn it babe, I'm at work. You need to be respectful to me."

I burst into tears.

"What's wrong with her Edward?" Carlisle asked.

"He just yelled at me." I started to sob.

"I didn't yell at you Bella." I stated.

"Edward, you need to keep her calm right now, this is NOT the time to make her cry." Carlisle chastised.

"Dad, I wasn't trying to make her cry!" Edward hissed.

"Enough!" Carlisle insisted. "Bella dear we need to get you upstairs and make sure everything is OK, we might have to do an emergency c section if they show signs of distress. I just want you

to be prepared and I want you to calm down." he pointed to Edward.

Edward sighed and shook his head.

"Now, Edward I've already took care of your schedule. Dr. Sims is finishing with Charlie and then Sue with bring him to the Labor and Delivery waiting room and if he's feeling bad I've instructed them to tell a nurse and they'll take him to one of our offices to lay down for a while and they'll feed them as well. Your mother cut her meeting short, she'll be here soon and she'll

check in with Charlie and Sue as well." Carlisle reassured me as well. By the time we reached my room I was much calmer and so was Edward.

"I'm sorry for being an ass Bella." he leaned down and kissed me.

"It's OK. It's the first time you've been through this." I shrugged.

After a few minutes on the machines Carlisle was worried about one of the babies and took Edward aside. Coming back a few minutes later Edward sat and told me they'd need to do a c section because one of the twins was in distress and they didn't feel comfortable with me delivering naturally.

"Whatever we have to do, I just want to have healthy babies Edward." I pulled him for a kiss. "OK. We'll be getting you prepped." he smiled and I nodded.

Waking up I noticed everyone in my room.

Dad was asleep in a chair in the corner and Edward was sitting and reading and Esme and Carlisle were chatting quietly.

"Hey, where are my babies?" I panicked.

"Hey, it's OK. They're OK. They're in NICU because they were early, you can go see them tomorrow. They're perfect." Edward beemed.

I started crying.

"Hey, what's the matter?" he crawled on the bed with me.

"I'm just happy they're OK." I smiled.

"Me too. It's one of the scariest surgeries I've ever done." Edward ran his hands through his hair.

"What?" I exclaimed.

"I wasn't going to let anyone else cut my wife open." he shook his head. "Dad assisted me." he smiled. I blushed.

"Where's Sue?" I asked. "Is dad OK?"

"Sue is getting Riley and your dad is pretty weak, I'm not going to sugar coat it Bella." Edward smiled sadly and I nodded. I think he's held out long enough to see me truly happy.

I think once he sees his grandbabies and I have a talk with him, he'll know how truly happy Edward makes me and he'll know that he truly knew best and Edward was the best choice for me.
