Chapter 7: The Cullen Movie night!
We ate the mouth watering roast dinner before going into the lounge where the couches were pushed together to make a semi-circle around the TV and mattresses where in the middle it looked very inviting.
Alice brought in 4 HUGE bowls of popcorn, soft drinks and HEAPS of lollies. Oh great hyper little girls.
"Okay so we can watch... Shrek 1, 2 or 3, Ice age 1, 2 or 3, Cinderella, sleeping beauty, snow white" Emmett called out all kids movies for the girl's sake.
"Ice age 3" Amy called out.
"Ice age 3 it is!" I was happy with the choice I haven't seen ice age 3 yet. I sat down next to Edward; Amy quickly came over and squished her way into the middle of us I laughed at her antics as she smiled up at me.
The opening credits came up for Ice age 3 on the Cullen's huge plasma screen TV and I got myself comfortable before reaching for some popcorn and lollies.
I got a surprise when I looked over and Amy was leaning on Edward almost asleep with Edwards arm around her. How did she feel so comfortable so quickly with the Cullen's I mean I did to but shouldn't 6 year old girls usually be scared or shy of teenage guys? I smiled anyway it was nice that she was so comfortable around them.

I woke up groggily with a sore neck I looked down to see Amy was lying in front of me and I had my arm around her I looked up to see what I had my head on I realised it was Edward I jumped up quickly out of his lap. He was sitting on the couch like he was the night before but now his head hung over the back and his arm was laid sloppily on me. I hoped like Hell that no-one had seen but then I noticed that everyone else's beds were empty except for Lexi and Ellie. DAMN THEY MUST HAVE SEEN!
I got up and gently laid Amy back down without waking her unfortunately I woke up Edward when I laid Amy back down.
"Oh Sorry Edward I didn't mean to wake you" I said apologetically
"Oh don't worry I should wake up anyway" he said as he tried patting down his unruly hair that wasn't behaving. He looked down at Amy "was she like that all night?" He grinned goofily
"Mhm" I smiled back
"They're very nice girls you should be very proud of them" He smiled.
"I am, I just wish I could give them more of a chance in life, but I can't and I accept that, I've done my best." I said sitting down next to Amy.
"What do you mean more of a chance in life" Edward asked looking over to me.
"Well I'm never gonna be able to give them what they deserve." I sighed "as soon as they're old enough they will have to get jobs and even then we'll be struggling"
"But don't your parents work long hours and if you need the money so much why don't you have a job?" He asked
"Oh no, My parents have heaps of money, they just decide not to spend any of it on us, but as soon as I turn 18 I'm moving out and I can't and won't leave them in that hell hole not even my parents call a home so I'll call DOCS (AN: In Australia that's child services: The Department Of Child Services I think that's what it stands for at least.) Their closest family member is me all I have to do is convince them that I can take care of them on my own" I said looking over at him. I didn't even realise what I said until about 30 seconds of silence "Shit I said too much."
"Bella what's going on with your family I know there's something wrong and I know that you don't get all those injuries from falling over or down stairs. What's going on?" He said in a stern voice I turned around and was shocked there was so much emotion written all over his face I could see the pain and anxiety in his eyes but I could see the Anger dominating his face.
"Look Edward it's none of your business" I said not angrily but not in a kind voice either.
"Bella we can help" he said.
"How Edward?" I said angrily now.
"I don't know because I don't know what's going on" He said just as angrily
We got interrupted when Ellie started thrashing around "no, no, no, no" she said repeatedly She started crying although she was still asleep, I rushed over to her.
"Ellie bubba time to wake up" I pushed her gently on the arm.
"What's wrong? Does she usually do this?" Edward asked concerned
"Don't worry she's just having a bad dream she'll come round" I said as she begun saying no again, I pushed her gently again Suddenly she just went spaz on me she was hitting, kicking, pulling my hair, bending back my finger and slapping me. Edward got to me quickly and held her down.
"Eleanor Rose Swan wake up now." I said sternly knowing she would respond.
She sat up quickly and started crying "BELLSY" she cried hugging me "they twied to take me away" she sobbed into my shirt as I gently stroked her back "He was hurting you, you were twying to get me back but she was dwagging me away" She cried.
"Who were bubba?" I asked
"uhhh...I forget their names I think it is mamma and dada" she said looking up at me.
"Oh" I froze.
"She doesn't know her parents?" Edward asked.
"Well the last time the girls saw them would have been a couple of weeks ago"
"WHAT?! Why?" he asked
"As I say my parents leave for work at 5 in the morning and come home at nine. I look after them I feed them I take them to bed I do everything for them, that's why Ellie calls me mummy sometimes"
"Oh" he said.
There were a few seconds of just Ellie's sobs when Alice walked in "Oh you're up" Alice smiled "Did you enjoy your night" she giggled. I could feel myself turn red as a tomato.
"Alice wha-" Edward began saying.
"Oh, what's wrong with Ellie???" She interrupted running over to me.
"Oh she just had a bad dream she'll get over it." I smiled.
"Oh" Alice replied rubbing Ellie's back.
"Hey Ellie if you stop crying we can wake up your sisters and we can start opening all of your presents!"
"WHAT PRESENTS?!?!?!" I said "didn't we get presents all yesterday?"
"Yes they're the same presents only wrapped" Alice smiled Ellie's eyes lit up
Ellie got up really fast and was waking up Amy before I even knew it. "WAKE UP PRESENT TIME PRESENT TIME!" she yelled prancing around the room. Lexi and Amy both got up groggily before they realized the word present was in Ellie's sentence.
"WHERE?!" Amy squealed excitedly.
"Follow me" Alice giggled
We all followed her to her bedroom; her bed was FULL with presents some even piled up. The girls all stood there shocked when suddenly huge squeals I thought incapable of them escaped all three of their mouths.
I smacked my hand against my forehead how much time and wrapping paper did they use? How rich were they?
