Warnings: Some sexual content. Course language.
I made my slow way up the stairs to my and Edward's room to shower. Edward had gone hunting with the others like they always did during my and Carlisle's sessions on preparing my body for my inevitable labor that scared the shit out of me.
I mused over everything on the labor that I had learned from Carlisle with Edward next to me as I started the shower and pealed my clothes off my body to calm myself with some warm water to hush the twins. I knew things would be very different with twins in labor. It would be doubled in work on my part, while my body would help me along; I was the one who had to push them out. Edward and I had decided against any medication during the labor. I didn't want it when I was having one child, and I didn't want to have any with twins.
I knew it would be painful, but my own mom and her mom didn't do it, and I wanted to follow our family's tradition of natural birthing and painkiller free.
I broke out my musings to hear the shower door open to see Edward come in the shower to join me; something we had taken to doing together.
I felt Edward nuzzle into my neck. ''How did it go today?'' He asked softly and quietly.
I sighed and leaned into the hard clod body of my Edward. ''It's hurting more and more. I can't do it anymore. They don't like it. Your son is an asshole.'' I informed him.
Edward chuckled and ran his hand across my bare large swollen belly. Edward had been ecstatic to learn I was having a girl and a boy. I knew that this boy was going to be his pride and joy even though it wasn't his blood. I had known a girl was in there, and now I knew I had a baby girl.
The possibility of Edward choosing to leave me was still high now. I had made it clear to him that he didn't have to be with me and buy the babies anything, but he always bought it anyway and showed that love for me. It made my heart melt from that love that Jasper had stated was stronger than anyone else's in the family. Even Carlisle's and Esme's which was hard to beat. I was just thankful he hadn't left me for another girl. Even with this mating bond we had; anything could happen.
I was just a human after all.
''It'll hopefully ease up soon. You're just barely into your sixth month, love. Things will get harder, but I will help you along with the family.'' Edward told me, bringing me out of my musings from that hypnotic voice.
I sighed again and leaned my head on his strong shoulder to look into his calm face that held that crooked grin.
''I hope it does. It just seems like everything is getting harder and harder, while getting so much more painful.'' I said truthfully and laid my hands on his that were still resting on my belly that held my calm, still twins. They usually always stopped moving in the shower. They liked it that much.
''I know, love. Carlisle is trying to do everything to ease the pain, but most medications aren't safe for the babies this far along. That's why he's checking your dilation progress more and more. He's hoping this isn't a sign of early labor and contractions.'' Edward told me.
I knew that the third father figure I had was trying to do everything he could for me. I knew it caused his own pain to see me suffering. Everyone hated it. I didn't know about Rosalie, as the vampire just avoided me like the plague. I kept brushing it off, but it hurt that Edward's second sister didn't like me at all, and didn't want anything to do her brother's babies.
''I know he is, babe. There's just nothing that helps except sleeping. I'm probably not going to graduate at all.'' I told him.
I saw him nod and shake his hair that flattened on his head from the warm water out of his face. ''That's alright. You'll have plenty of time to get a high school diploma. I promise that.'' Edward told me.
I giggled softly. Edward had told me sometime after the twins were born; he wanted to change me into a vampire so we could be mates for eternity. I wanted to be with Edward, so I told him I wanted to muse over it for a little while before truly saying my answer. No matter how sure I wanted to be with him, I had to truly think about it. He had understood, and hadn't brought it up unless I asked a question on the subject. Sometimes, the subject just slipped out of his mouth. It sounded natural for him to just talk about us already being together for eternity.
''I know. I just want to make my dad proud, and show I can graduate. I practically dropped out since I never go.'' I said quietly. We always spoke quietly like this when we were alone for some reason. It wasn't like no one in the house couldn't hear us anyway. It was just a personal thing between us, and even Emmett knew that.
Edward nodded. ''I understand, love. Now relax. Carlisle says you have to stay relaxed.'' He grinned before giving me a deep kiss.
I knew something was different right now. I could feel that fire burst inside of my very soul like on the nights Edward and I would lay in bed and spend hours touching each other to where we would go further in our touching, to him pleasuring me with those pianist fingers that had made me a lullaby. Those releases I had made from those fingers were stronger than any other orgasm I had with my ex. It shook my entire body; where Edward would watch with those dark eyes as he purred cat-like at me. I wasn't the only one that got off during our nights. I had made sure to flip the tables on the dominate vampire that liked it semi-rough with me. I liked it as well. We just watched what we did due to the babies. I knew Edward enjoyed it when I gave him a hand job from that pleased look on his face when I would do it. I also knew that Edward had never had sex before. But I doubted that it would stop him from having sex masterfully when we would have sex for our first time together.
I cut out of thoughts when I felt Edward slide those fingers down my belly and to my ultra sensitive nub, where he began rubbing those circles that made me break our kiss to moan and hold onto his wrists. Not to stop him, though. I did it to hold onto something to stabilize myself.
I could feel that length of his pressing into my back. Edward always enjoyed touching me. It was that possessive streak in him. While we hadn't mated per say; he had his scent on me from those times he orgasmed and it landed on me. He took advantage of those times to smear it on his fingers for me to lick it off. He tasted sweet, and I enjoyed the taste. He loved watching me sucking on his fingers to remove his orgasm like I was sucking on a lollipop.
I hummed as I felt Edward move those skilled fingers to my soaked core just to slide right in like they belonged there.
''Yeah.'' I whispered as he moved those fingers. I knew he knew I loved it when he did that.
Edward chuckled at me and went back to nuzzling his nose into my neck. ''Yeah?'' He asked rhetorically. ''Good thing I can keep up with these hormones of yours.'' Edward chuckled deeply with pleasure mixed in.
I hummed again and closed my eyes to feel those fingers move in and out of my passage that I knew was tight due to me feeling those slim fingers like nothing else. The water was still spraying on us with warm water as Edward busied himself with sliding those fingers inside and out with me coming closer and closer to the edge.
I heard Edward chuckle from the haze of pleasure. ''I know you're close. You do the exact same thing every time.'' He whispered, but he didn't stop his movement that sped up just a little bit. He knew that some things hurt my doubled sensitive area. Edward knew everything about my body without even asking about it or being told. It was like he had touched it before he had even first touched me sexually.
I felt my body tense for that fired release that he always managed to make me do without fail. That same, never gets old, wonderful, amazing, orgasm racked over me and I moaned out Edward's name breathlessly like I did those nights before. He loved it all the same from that purr and that cold feeling from his own orgasm. He usually orgasmed when I did. He said it loved hearing my voice, touching my body, and scenting my release. It got him off, and he thought it the combination of his attraction and love for me, and the mating bond between us that dragged us together.
I let myself lean against Edward for support as I knew he wouldn't let me fall to the bottom of the shower from being boneless. I kept my eyes closed as I caught my breath, but I felt those fingers at my lips and sucked them right into my mouth to get that wonderful taste off them that was mixed with mine. The combination wasn't bad, but I liked his more than anything.
I knew Edward was watching with those black eyes of his. He liked watching me lick his essence off him, and I liked doing it. When I had licked all of it off him he took those fingers away and got a wash cloth to probably wash my back from the rest of his orgasm, before washing my lower region from my own release that was mixing with water from the not so warm shower that still sprayed on us.
It was silent between us, but that was okay for both of us. We liked that peace, pleasured silence we shared afterwards. I could hear Edward purring softly still when he turned off the shower and retrieved the towel I had hanging on the door to dry my body off. I learned he liked doing these basic things for me. I don't know If it was a possessive, dominate thing in vampires, or if just loved touching me in some way.
The twins were calm all during the time I dressed in my pajamas and did my nightly routine before bed.
''These pants are getting a little tight.'' I commented and pulled at my pajama shorts I had bought for myself when I was two months pregnant.
Edward looked over to me and away from his stereo that he was turning on for my music that the babies loved to listen to and put me to sleep. Mainly my lullaby, and the twins' separate lullabies he had made.
''You bought those months ago, love. Why don't you wear my sweats tonight, and Esme can buy you some more comfy ones tomorrow?'' Edward asked me.
I agreed with that idea and changed into Edward's nice, larger than me and my extended, belly filled with calmed children, sweatpants before slowly easing myself on the bed with a sigh.
''This is getting harder and harder to do.'' I groaned as Iaid down on my side to let my belly rest on the soft mattress and the body pillow Edward bought me. It was a very nice pillow to have, as I cuddled into it when I was on bed rest.
I saw Edward turn off the lights and appear behind me on the bed under the covers like we did every night. The Cullen just loved laying next to me at night and watch me sleep for some reason. He claimed he loved it; so of course I would allow it. Nothing harmed, and I get company, right?
''I know, love. After they're born; things will get easier again.'' He soothed me.
I nodded before closing my eyes with a soft sigh. ''I know, babe. Goodnight.''
''Goodnight. Love you.'' Edward told me and kissed my shoulder like all the other nights.
I felt myself smile. ''Love you, too.'' I told him.
I could feel that pleasure roll off him at my words as I drifted off into sleep with calmed twins that would wake me up all through the night. I didn't mind too much with Edward here. He was great with me, and treated me nicely.
''I don't know, Alice.'' I said hesitantly as I looked to the price of the double stroller.
I looked to the pixie Cullen who rolled her topaz eyes at me. We had the entire Cullen family with me and Edward as we shopped for more baby stuff in the state over from Washington. It was a pricey baby store that Esme insisted taking me to. She wanted me to find some stuff that I picked out, and not just Alice and Edward.
''Come on, Bella! You like it!'' Alice told me with a pout.
I raised my eyebrow at her and held onto Edward's hand, who was grinning at his sister.
''Stop pouting, Alice. It's so high in price. I don't want to spend that much.'' I commented on the high price of the stylish stroller.
''Bella, if you like it, you can have it, mommy.'' Esme told me and gave me a smile.
I sighed at the look Edward gave me. ''When will we need this? When? I thought we were moving to Alaska for god's sake.'' I asked him with a laugh.
Carlisle had the plan for after the babies were born that we would move to Alaska for my recovery and change that I had decided to go with a month ago. I was a good seven months now, and fat as shit. The twins were growing quickly inside me, and causing so much trouble.
I had told Charlie and my other parents that Edward wanted me to go with him and his family when they moved, and even had everything planned. I had promised to keep them updated like there was no tomorrow with the babies. Pictures, videos, anything they could name because I knew they would want to know about them growing up away from them all. While they didn't want me to leave; they understood, and wanted me happy. I wanted to be with Edward, so I would leave with him wherever he would go.
Edward laughed and hugged me from behind. ''I don't know. But we should have everything, right?'' He asked me.
I scoffed. ''Not useless stuff that will go to waste. No Alice.'' I laughed at the pout she gave me.
Jasper chuckled.'' Alice, if she doesn't like it, don't force her. Why don't we look for something else? Like a rocking chair? You can always use those.'' He tried.
''I like the idea.'' Emmett piped up as he looked at car seats that we already were prepared in. Rosalie was standing near her husband, but she wouldn't even look at me. I swear I was about to blow up at the blonde that really did nothing but ignore me, and talk trash behind my back. I didn't though on Emmett's pleas that he would talk to her and make her stop, and Esme's words of her dealing with the blonde vampire that I wanted to smack.
Carlisle's voice knocked me out my thoughts. ''Well, rocking chairs are over here. We would want one that is comfortable for you. You can't be uncomfortable when breastfeeding. Te babies won't feed if you're stressed, dear.'' He pointed over to the section that got my attention.
''Oh! That reminds me!'' Alice suddenly exclaimed, making us all look to Alice who began walking away with Jasper. ''I have to get you a breast pump! You go to the chairs, and we'll catch up in a little bit!'' She finished and turned the corner with Jasper just contently allowing his mate to drag him away.
I sighed. ''It was nice knowing Jasper. I don't we'll ever see him again in this place.'' I said to Edward who nodded and held onto my hand as we walked to the chairs.
''Soldiers sometimes go missing. We just might find him again.'' Carlisle said with humor as he looked to a nice comfy chair. ''Sit, mommy.'' He ordered me.
''As you wish, Master. I live to please and breed twins.'' I said submissively before lowering myself into the chair with my chuckling Edward's help.
Esme giggled and watched me put my aching feet up on the foot rest. ''Do you like it sweetie?'' Esme asked me.
''it seems a little big. I don't really like the extra space. I mean, I want to be, um, more something.'' I tried to think over the words I wanted to use.
''You want a smaller one?'' Edward asked me, and I nodded. ''Alright. We can find one with the same cushioning, but in a smaller size for you.'' He contemplated.
''You can do that. I'll watch Emmett here, baby.'' I said playfully and eyed the bear Cullen sitting in the one next to me like a child as he rocked himself making noises.
''We're trusting you, mommy.'' Esme told me seriously and walked away with the others.
When they walked away, Emmett and I just laughed at Esme's serious response.
''I'm over sixty and I'm still a child.'' Emmett chuckled and looked to me.
''Poor thing. Maybe they'll like you more when I tell the news of my and Edward's choice.'' I thought over it.
I knew I perked Emmett's interest from that look in his eyes. I just rubbed at my belly and ignored those looks from the other shoppers. They must have thought Emmett was the daddy.
No. As much as I loved Emmett, he was a brother to me.
''What news? Come on little sister! Don't leave me hanging!'' He whined out and stood up to pout cutely as his bear figure would allow him. He was really just a teddy bear in disguise.
I laughed and looked behind me to see the other Cullens looking at the rocking chairs. I knew they would hear me. I was just so used to it, that I just didn't really care.
I looked back to Emmett who finally sat down next to me. He sat on the floor and faced me as he poked at my belly playing tag again. The store people were giving him looks and I rolled my eyes at their obvious thought of him being the dad.
''I chose godmothers and godfathers for the twins. Edward backs me up on my choices, too. He thinks they're wonderful ideas. I have a godmother and a godfather that the twins will share so they're always together.'' I said to him. ''As a just in case thing, you know?''
Emmett looked up with a curious look as he continued poking at the twins that kicked him back for poking them. They hated being touched.
''Oh? Who?''
''I chose Alice as their godmother. I know she would take care of them.'' I said truthfully.
Emmett looked up to me. ''Of course she would. You're family, and they're your kids, but you'll be caring for them.'' He told me firmly.
I smiled and caressed my belly with the kicking babies. They knew my train of thought somehow, and they really didn't like it. But I had to be safe. I wanted them cared for. Edward would always care for them, but we were mates, and I didn't know what would happen if I did pass away in labor. Mates follow each other. It's how we were connected.
''You never know, Em. You just never know.'' I told him softly.
Emmett looked a little hurt that I said that. ''But nothing will.'' He stated. ''Whose the godfather?'' He questioned.
''You.''
Emmett froze in his movements of rubbing at my belly to look at me in shock., I just smiled.
''You're the best choice. Jasper is wonderful, and a great man. He most likely would be great at raising the babies, but I wanted the man who spotted three feet so easily.'' I reminded him from the time in the hospital when he pointed out I was having twins before Carlisle had even told me.
''Me?'' Emmett whispered in shock. Those topaz eyes were locked onto me and were filled with shock, but gratefulness.
I nodded as I started to rock myself to hush the twins up. Emmett kept his hand completely still on my belly.
''Yeah. You're my favorite Cullen.'' I joked with him. I loved them all equally, but Edward was above them all as my mate. ''I thought of Carlisle, but he's the granddaddy. He already has a title like Esme does.'' I admitted. Carlisle was my choice, but Emmett just seemed more right for my precious babies.
Emmett continued to look at me and my belly. ''Wow. Me? Wow. I don't know what to say, Bella.'' He admitted softly.
''Say you'll care for them like there your own. Mates follow each other, Em. I know this. If anything did happen, Edward would be sure to follow. He wouldn't be able to raise them like I want him to. It's a sad thought, I know. No one wants to think of anything like that, but I have to be sure my babies would be okay in life in the family. Just say you'll love them.'' I asked him.
Emmett looked frozen in place as I continued rocking myself to calm the twins that were angry at me for my thought process and saying I wouldn't be here for them. I didn't know if it was possible for them do know, but I just knew it.
''Bells.'' Emmett had that plea in his voice.
''Just say you will. Can't have just Alice to spoil them and stuff. You're the primary godparent, so they would go to you automatically. I know you'd be a great parent if Edward and I can't raise them like we want to.'' I told him.
Emmett shook his head. ''Bella, you're raising them. I can't take care of myself. I have to have Rose and Esme care for me, and I'm over sixty. I can't care for myself. Let alone your twin babies.'' He tried.
''Just say it Emmett.'' I heard Edward behind me pipe up. I looked to him like his brother did.
I saw the rest of the Cullens shifting their eyes back and forth between Edward and I with disbelief. Edward agreed with me on my thoughts. He didn't want to even think of anything happening to me during labor, but I had to think of all the possibilities, and so did Edward.
''Say it, Emmett. You're my brother. Alice is my sister. It's your responsibility to raise our children like their your own. They won't leave the family. Not even Charlie or Renee will have a say in anything.'' Edward said calmly and looked to his sister and brother who were both stuck in answering.
''But -'' Alice started, but stopped from seeing my look. Alice sighed heavily. ''I promise.'' She said brokenheartedly.
'No.'' Emmett said firmly and shook his head.
''Emmett.'' I pleaded. ''Please?''
''You two are raising them. Not me or Alice. I don't know who put this in your head, Bella; but you're living and raising these two kids like you're supposed to.'' Emmett stood up.
Edward sighed. ''Why are you being stubborn now? Just say yes or I'll change you to Jasper.'' He raised his eyebrow.
''You act like I'll say yes.'' Jasper stated.
''You would.'' I pointed out. Jasper was loyal to Edward and me. He would always do what we wished if needed of him.
Carlisle sighed. ''Son, perhaps we should talk more in depth of this discussion at home.''
Esme agreed with him. ''I think we should just have a good time today, and talk about this later.''
''Just say yes.'' I asked Emmett again.
''No.
''Say it, Emmett.'' Alice told him.
Emmett looked to his pixie sister who nodded. Th bear Cullen looked back to me and Edward who had helped me stand from the chair.
''Just say it Emmett so we can leave.'' Rosalie said quietly.
''I go with Rosalie this once. Say it.'' I said firmly.
Emmett paused as he inhaled unnecessary air.
''I promise.'' He said honestly as he nodded. ''I promise to care for them like I was their own father. I promise, sis.''
What am I putting Emmett through? The poor guy is heart broken. :(
