Carlisle's Pov
We were soon on our way to the Grand Floridian, Josh was out cold in the back seat; Bella on the other hand was bouncing up and down in her booster seat in a manner that reminded me of Alice. With the time change it was about 7 o'clock so we couldn't really get settled into the hotel and get to one of the parks before it was too late. Alice had of course seen this and booked us at reservation at one of the hotel's restaurants. Apparently they have Disney characters that visit the table during the meal so they wouldn't actually have to wait until tomorrow to meet the great Mickey and Minnie.
"Are we there yet daddy?" Bella looked at me in the rearview mirror.
"Not quite sweetie" I smiled at her and she gave out a sigh. Traffic wasn't too bad but it wasn't ideal; it took us nearly an hour to finally get to our rooms. Jasper, Alice, Rosalie, Emmett and Edward were sharing a substantially large three bedroom suite. Josh and Bella were staying with me and Esme in our suite. Josh had finally woken up from what couldn't really be described as a nap as he was unconscious for nearly 6 hours straight.
"When can I see Mickey?" Bella asked impatiently as she climbed onto our bed.
"Bella, no jumping on the bed you know better than that" Esme sighed but still managed to give her a stern look. I tried not to smile, Josh was sitting quietly on the edge of the couch still wiping the sleep from his eyes; neither of them ever seemed to be hyper at the same time. Normally it was Josh who was trying to give Esme gray hairs not Bella.
"Alice said the restaurant requires formal attire" I reminded Esme as I hung my garment bag in the closet.
"Ah ha, that's why Alice had me pack Bella's dress and Josh's suit" A beautiful smile crossed my wife's face; she grabbed the remote control to the television and flipped on some cartoons. Being ever cautious she kissed the top of Josh's head and walked to the door putting the chain lock on. It wasn't for fear of someone entering to the room but she didn't want Josh or Bella wandering off.
"So do you want to take Josh or Bella?" I asked quietly as I grabbed my suit from the closet.
"Bella, her dress has fewer pieces" my wife smiled at me as she grabbed her dress out of the garment bag as well. We walked to together into the enormous bathroom to change. Esme put on a breathtakingly gorgeous blue cocktail dress while I changed into my classic black suite. After we finished changing we headed back into the bedroom.
"Wow mommy" Josh gasped as he looked at her. "So pretty"
"Well thank you Josh" she smiled at him.
"What about me huh?" I smirked, teasing Josh.
"You look pretty too?" I laughed as Josh looked at me slightly alarmed.
"Oh yes very pretty Carlisle" Esme laughed. "Come on Bella, let's get go get you ready" Bella got off the bed and hurried over to her. Esme took Bella's hand gently and led her into her and Josh's room to change.
"Alright bud, come on" I scooped Josh up and tossed him over my shoulder as he erupted into giggles. Getting Josh into a two piece suit was as closed to wrangling a cat as I thought ever possible. It took me about fifteen minutes but I finally managed to get him into his herringbone jacket, khaki pants, green button down, and red and blue striped tie.
"I look stupid" Josh crossed his arms over his chest as he looked at himself in the full length mirror. The bedroom door opened and Esme peered in.
"You most certainly do not Joshua, you look very handsome." I tried to hide my smirk as Josh rolled his eyes.
"Not uh. You have to say that 'cuz you're a mom"
"Shh" Esme hushed him as she walked into the room, Bella followed at her heels wearing a gorgeous pink dress with a white sash tied in a bow in the back.
"What the hell is this?" I heard Alice from behind the door as she was met by the chain lock. Bella gasped as she heard her profanity.
"Alice, language" Bella scolded bringing a fresh smile to my face, she sounded just like Esme.
"I told you we shouldn't have let her have that extra key" I snickered as I walked to the door to unlock it.
"I heard that" Alice chirped from the hallway. We were all soon on our way to downstairs to dinner. The moment we entered the grand dining room Bella saw the large Mickey Mouse costume and took off.
"Mickey!" She shouted at him, he turned around to face her expecting at the very lease to be asked for his autograph. Bella had other plans. She ran into him at full speed for a hug. She must have hit him pretty hard because she knocked him clean off his feet. The actor inside landed with a thud on their butt. "You okay Mickey?" She asked innocently as she smiled at the oversized cartoon character.
"I am so sorry" Esme apologized as she came up behind Bella; even with her apologies she was unable to hide her smile. Mickey waved his hand, gesturing to her that it was fine. Like a true champ he got up and gave Bella a hug. She buried herself in his polyester tuxedo and smiled. "Okay kiddo, it's time to eat" Esme gently pulled Bella away and walked back over towards us.
"That was awesome, he flew like a good yard or so" Emmett grinned.
"Bells you almost killed Mickey" Josh looked at her seriously.
"Not uh, he's okay" Bella narrowed her eyes at her twin.
"Mickey's fine, come on you guys, our table is ready" We finally sat down for our family dinner, well I'm not sure you could call it a family dinner, only Josh and Bella would be eating.
A/N – 10 reviews on that last chapter, awesome guys thanks. See more reviews get you faster updates. On a side note, the first time I apparently saw Tigger at Disney I knocked him on his butt so that's where that came from.
