"Bella sweetheart. I need to talk to you." my mom said. I was on the phone with her. Me, Tanya, Alice, and Rose were all crammed inside my room looking at magazines, and talking when my mom called.
"Sure what is it mom?" I asked worried. Was Ella okay? Did my mom decide against giving Ella up? I started chewing on my thumbnail nervously but Tanya slapped my hand away from my mouth.
"Well…you wouldn't mind taking Ella in early, would you?" My mom asked.
I jumped onto my bed and started to jump shrieking, 'yes!' repeatedly. My friends stared at me as if I had grown three heads.
"Okay sweetheart, calm down!" I heard my mother laugh.
"Thank you, thank you, thank, thank you, THANK YOU!" I shrieked. "When?" I asked still jumping.
"Does…tomorrow sound good?" She asked. I couldn't contain myself. I dropped the phone and started screaming, tears sprang to my eyes. I jumped harder than ever.
"Bella! Bella, calm down." Alice brought me down on the bed and Tanya picked up the phone and handed it to me.
"Yes mother, tomorrow is absolutely, 100% perfect!" I said trying to remain calm.
"Okay. Bye sweetheart." She hung up.
I looked at my friends. "Do I have permission to freak out now?" I asked, and they shrugged. I commenced the jumping up and down and screaming.
"She's coming early! She's coming early!" I sang. Alice screamed and hopped up with me. We hugged each other, and she joined in my singing.
"What are you girls doing? I paid good money on that bed." My dad whined. Emmett was in the doorway smirking.
"Ella's coming tomorrow!" I sang.
"YES!" Emmett boomed. He ran forward and took me and Alice into a hug and set us on the floor. Then he began jumping with us too.
My dad, Rose, and Tanya were laughing, but I didn't care, I was too happy!
"Emmett!" I whined loudly. "Choose a shirt, put on some pants, and lets get out of here already!"
"But I can't find a shirt that Ella will like!" He called back.
"Her favorite color is midnight blue. You have one in the very back, put it on, and lets go!" I drummed my fingers on the railing for the stairs.
"Okay, I'm presentable!" Emmett bounced downstairs. I hit my forehead with my hand, and Alice let out a laugh and covered her eyes.
"Um, Emmett, son?" My dad said. "You forgot a very important detail."
"What?" Emmett asked.
"Your pants you idiot!" I laughed.
"Oh c**p! You know I had a dream about this once, but instead I was in a bar." Emmett said thoughtfully, and ran upstairs.
It took him 10 minutes to find a decent pair of pants, and then we were off. The whole way to Port Angeles Alice and I were bouncing in our seats in anticipation.
"Are we there yet?" Alice asked.
"No." Emmett said. After five minutes…
"Are we there yet?" I asked.
"Nope." Emmett answered obviously more annoyed.
After five more minutes me and Alice looked at each other and grinned.
"Are we there yet?" We said in unison.
"Argh!" Emmett groaned. "Are we there yet?" he turned to my dad.
"Yes Emmett, Alice, and Bella." My dad laughed. Me and Alice squealed and jumped out of the car even though it was still moving. Alice landed gracefully on her feet, where as I, being the clumsy girl that I am, fell. I kept myself propped myself up and ran with a giggling Alice.
30 minutes later the door for Ella's plane, opened. Emmett stopped drumming his fingers on the seat, Charlie looked up, Alice stopped bouncing in her seat, and I stopped pacing. People came out embracing family members, and friends, and boyfriends, and girlfriends, but I looked around for my daughter. And then there she was.
Waist length brown hair, 30 inches tall, sea green eyes.
"Momma!" She cried when she saw me. People that were around her looked at her, and their eyes filled with adoration. She ran full speed at me, and tripped. Oops, she must've gotten my clumsiness. I ran after her and scooped her in my arms.
"Oh! How are you my most wonderful, bestest daughter in the whole world?!" I kissed her cheek and she giggled.
"I good. How awe you?" She giggled.
"I'm good, but now I'm even better that I have my daughter with me!" I kissed her cheek again.
"Hello Bella." A voice said. I looked up and a man with russet skin, and glossy black hair was looking at me.
"Jake!" I shrieked and gave him a huge one armed hug. Jacob Black is my best friend. We met when we were two. For the briefest of time I had a crush on him. That was, until he pushed me off a fishing boat and I almost drowned when I was 5 and he was 4. Apparently he thought it 'would be funny.' We've been friends ever since. He admired Tanya for also the briefest time, that was until she cut off his ponytail when he was napping on the couch when we were 16 and he was 15.
When I gave birth to Ella, he took it at liberty to accompany the 3 month year old on the plane, and now he was back!
"How've you been Jake?! Come on!" I tugged his arm. "Ella baby did you want to meet your new aunty?"
"Yes pwease!" She smiled. I set her down and held her hand as we walked.
"Ella!" Emmett boomed.
"Uncle Emmy!" She squealed and ran forward to hug his legs. He lifted her up to give her raspberries on her cheek, she squealed and giggled. When he set her on the ground she walked to Charlie. They reunited for a couple of seconds when she looked curiously at Alice.
"Is that my aunie?" She whispered to me. I nodded. "Down!" she cried. Charlie obliged obediently, and Ella toddled over to Alice. Her little eyebrows scrunched together.
"Hi Arie!" Alice smiled.
"You awe small." She commented.
"Ella!" I laughed. Alice looked up at me.
"You've got to be kidding me." She said bluntly.
"Even the shrimp knows you're a shrimp!" Emmett laughed. Alice glared at him and then stuck her tongue out at him.
"I like you! You awe bery pwetty!" Ella decided.
"Not as pretty as you." Alice smiled.
"ANYWAY!" I said. "Dad look who it is! It's Jake!" I announced his presence.
"Jake!" Emmett shouted and brought him in a hug.
"Em! Breathing-I need!" He gasped. Emmett chuckled and set him down.
"Alice, you remember Jacob Black, right?" I asked.
"Are you the one that Tanya cut off they're ponytail?" She asked.
"Yep." Jake grumbled. I don't think he ever forgave Tanya.
"Then yep!" Alice chirped.
"Okay let's go to the car." My dad ushered us.
Through out the whole car ride Ella was chattering animatedly about the contrast between Forks and Florida, and her plane ride. The funny thing? Jake, Emmett, and Alice were actually listening deeply, and seemed intrigued. I let my eyes close when a sudden thought popped into my head, how was I going to keep my 1 year old daughter a secret from the whole entire town?
Finally! Finally this chapter is up! Finally Ariella is here! Finally I mentioned Jake! FINALLY!
Okay I just want to say something. I just now realized that Bella and her daughter's names rhyme. It was accidental, NOT intentional.
Okay well I feel a wee bit uncomfortable with sharing how people got broken up with, because I know that this is very personal. So all I'm going to day is text and death. I will not say the names of the people! This is very personal, so that is that!
