Interview with a human
Carlisle wanted to know what was going on. Emmett filled him in on the baby hunting monster.
Jasper was given the job of hunting down Paul and Charlotte. We needed more answers. Edward and Emmett were given the task of setting traps. Carlisle wanted to know all there was about this creature.
Bella was frightened beyond her wildest nightmares. Izzy would not stop crying. Rosalie came and got her and she was quiet. Maybe Rosalie has a talent. Bella wanted Edward to hold her so she quietly, well as quiet as one could be with vampires nearby, ask Edward to come to her. He was there in a second. He saw how upset she was and tried to calm her down. He really needed Jasper's help. Bella, love it will be ok Edward whispered to her. Rosalie brought Izzy back to her and Bella put on her brave face for the baby.
After a while Bella felt calm enough to ask Edward if she could borrow a car. She wanted to go home. She would fix supper and let Charlie know she was staying with Alice. Charlie didn't know about Edward staying at night so it was best if it looked like he was not going to be in town. Edward was reluctant to let her go, but Bella assured him she would be back before nine. Edward was worried because that was after dark. Bella would call as soon as she left her house and Edward could come meet her. Edward kissed Bella good-bye and even kissed Izzy. Bella wasn't sure how to take that. Bella ended up taking the Porche. She would have preferred a less noticeable car, but that one was a mess. She loads up Izzy and heads home.
Charlie was home early, what with it being just three o'clock. Bella walks in the door with Izzy to find Charlie pacing the floors. Bella sits Izzy down and grabs her dad's arm to stop him from pacing and to ask what is wrong. Charlie has some news for Bella that she needs to know but Charlie doesn't want to upset her. Bella tells him to spill afraid it is about Izzy's family. Charlie sits down with his head in his hands not sure where to begin. Bella begins to get worried. Dad what is it; you know you can tell me anything. Bells, I love you and you know nothing I do will ever change that, right. Dad you are scaring me. Honey, Sue is coming over in an hour. Bella asks her dad why Sue is coming over. Charlie isn't sure if he is ready to let Bella know that he is dating again. Well, we are going to dinner and we want you and Izzy to come with us. We have a surprise for you, Says Charlie. Bella takes Izzy and goes to get ready for supper. She figures she can tell me about staying at the Cullen's at the restaurant.
Sue arrives and they go to The Inn. It is a casual dining restaurant. Everyone sits down and orders. Charlie is the first one to address Bella. Sweetie, me and Sue, he takes Sue's hand, are dating. We have been for awhile. Bella is blown away. She didn't think she was that out of touch, but then again Sue has been around more. Charlie looks at Bella again and says there is more; we want to adopt Izzy, after we get married next month. Bella is over whelmed and grabs Izzy and runs to the bathroom.
Sue follows her. Bella I know how this must look, but we really want a baby and with you going away in the fall, you will be away most of the day. This will free you up for normal activities. Bella stifles a sob and says I know you mean well, but it is all overwhelming. I could have used a little forewarning. I have to have time with her. I need to think about all this. My dad and you cannot throw this at me and not give me time. "That is only fair", said Sue. "Now will you please come back to the table and finish supper with us," pleaded Sue. Bella picks up Izzy and follows Sue back to their table. Charlie is relieved to see her come back. "Bells, I am sorry if I threw this at you all at once," said Charlie. Bella smiles to show that everything is kosher. They finish supper in more or less silence except for Izzy's gurgling.
Once back at home Bella notices it is almost 8:30 and she still needs to pack and not to mention tell Charlie where she is going. "Um dad, I am going to go stay with Alice tonight, so Sue doesn't have to leave right away," rushed Bella. Ok Bells, do you want us to keep Izzy." No, that is ok. Alice wants to see her. I will be back in town tomorrow to get mom. By the way dad I am telling mom that Izzy is yours, laughed Bella.
Bella pulls up to the Cullen house right at nine and is greeted to an army of Cullens waiting to safely escort her to the house.
Edward carries Izzy and Bella retrieves their bags and they all go into the house. Bella is beginning to feel the wear of the day on her. She asks Edward to take Izzy to his room. She is planning on retiring early or as early as Alice will allow.
AN---I am sorry for the delay. I was planning out my ending. These last few chapters will be the only ones I planned. The rest was easy. I hope everyone is enjoying this story.
