Edward POV
It was the end of summer two weeks ago and we are all back at school. On our first day back at school it was the first day with all of us being away from Bella.
-Flashback-
I was sitting on the couch ready to go watching everyone else rush around, getting ready, Bella was sitting on the floor on her rug that Esme laid out specifically for her because last time Bella did her drawings, she got texta and crayons on the carpet. I watched as Bella hugged her big white teddy, which was getting dirtier everyday, while everyone ran around the house.
"Jazz," Bella said stretching her arms out for a hug. Jasper went over to her and picked her up.
"Come on, we have to leave now," Alice said impatiently.
"Jazz, where are you and Awi and Mummy and Emmy and Ewar going?" Bella asked Jasper curiously.
"Hunny, we have to go to school, we'll be back home this afternoon, and you can spend the day with Esme okay" Jasper said. Bella looked shocked.
"I wanna come too," she said.
"Bella, sweetheart, you can't come, besides you'll have lots of fun here with Esme, you two can make us all a cake," Jasper said as Bella burst into tears.
"I don't want to," She screamed. "I wanna stay with you and Ewar." I think we were all upset to have to leave her.
Everyone was finally ready to go and we had to say good-bye to Bella.
"Bye Bella, I'll see you this afternoon," Alice said giving her a kiss on the forehead.
"See-ya squirt," Emmett said waving good-bye. By now Bella was gasping for air and Jasper had to pat her on the back, to help her breathe.
"Bye, darling girl," Rose said kissing Bella gently. Bella grabbed Rosalie's hair and wouldn't let go.
"NO! Mummy, you have to stay with me," She screamed.
"Bella, let go of mummy's hair," Rose said.
"No, I don't want you all to leave me," Bella said, "I wanna come with you."
"Bella, if you come with us, then poor Esme will be lonely and will have no one to keep her company," I said to Bella.
"Then mamma can come too," Bella said stubbornly. Meanwhile; Rose had managed to pry her hair from Bella's grip and was standing with the others waiting for Jasper and I.
"Bye, sweetie," I said and gave her a kiss on the cheek, "I can't wait until this afternoon," I said. Bella's cheeks were stained by tears and the teardrops were landing on Jaspers shirt.
"Ewar, Pwease don't leave me," She begged.
"Baby, I have to go to school," I said. I stood by the door waiting for Jasper. I saw the pain in Jasper's face; he didn't want to leave Bella, as much as she didn't want to leave him. I heard in his thoughts as well.
How can I do this? She's as much of my life as Alice is, I hate being the one that makes her so upset.
Jasper lifted Bella up and turned her around to face him. He brought her down to his chest and hugged her as tight as he could without hurting her. Bella was sobbing into his shoulder and clinging onto his shirt.
"Bella, my angel, I have to go now sweetie," Jasper said. There was a muffled scream and I saw Bella clench her fists tighter.
"No," She said.
Edward, what do I do? Jasper thought desperately
"How am I supposed to know?" I replied at vampire speed.
"Bella please, when I get home I'll play games with you until dinner time," Jasper said.
"No, play with me now," she said stubbornly.
"Bella, hunny, come to mamma," Esme said gently reaching out to take Bella from Jasper. She held Bella around the waist and pulled gently as Jasper pulled away in the opposite direction. It took them a few seconds to detach Bella from Jasper without hurting her but eventually they managed. Bella was howling, now, she desperately didn't want to leave us.
When I had done my psychology degree we had learnt about attachment and I think this would have to be the worst case of it.
Without Jasper's talent I could tell how devastated she was that we were leaving her. We filed out to the garage and Esme followed with a struggling Bella in her arms. We decided to take my Volvo and we all hopped in and I started the engine. The garage door opened and I revved the engine.
"Bye Bella, Bye Esme," We all said and I sped out of the garage. We all watched in the rear view mirror, Bella sobbing, tears pouring relentlessly down her cheeks.
Jasper hung his head beside me in the passenger seat, and Alice reached forward and took his hand while Rosalie was leaning into Emmett's shoulder and he was rubbing her back comfortingly.
-End Flashback-
Tomorrow would be Bella's fourth birthday and everyone was out hunting today, except me, I had gone two days ago. They had all left early in the morning so Bella wouldn't have a hard time saying good-bye and I was now in the kitchen feeding Bella her breakfast. I had never done this before, Esme, Rose or Jasper always did it. I realized now how difficult it is to feed a three year old. Bella kept moving her head and talking and wanting to go and play.
"Bella, open wide," I said. She opened her mouth obediently and I popped the cereal into her mouth. She took ages to chew her food and by the time she had finished each mouthful, she insisted that she was full.
"Ewar, I wanna play, I not hungwy anymore," she said.
"Bella, eat four more mouthfuls and then we'll go have a bath and get dressed okay" I said.
"I wanna play a game, Ewar, I had a bath yesterday," She said rolling her eyes.
"Yes, but you have to have a bath everyday," I told her.
"Oh," she said and I placed another spoonful into her mouth. She chewed the food and swallowed.
"One," she said.
She opened her mouth and I placed more cereal in.
"Two," she said when she had finished that mouthful. I placed another spoon in her mouth.
"Three," she said as she finished.
"Good girl," I said, "One more and we'll have a bath." I popped the last spoonful into her mouth and while she was chewing I walked over to the sink and rinsed out her bowl. I dried the bowl and spoon and put them away. By the time I was finished Bella had finished and was looking at me expectantly. I picked her up and carried her to the bathroom. I turned the tap on and filled the bath with warm soapy water. I turned to Bella and began to undress her.
This is just awkward, I know she's a little child but still, she's a girl, I thought. I lifted her up and sat her in the bath.
"Ewar, Ewar," she said.
"What's wrong Bella?" I asked. Had I made the water too hot? Was she hurt? I thought. It still aggravated me that I couldn't read her mind.
"Ewar, wubby ducky," She said pointing to the three ducks on the wind sill behind me. I breathed a sigh of relief and grabbed the ducks and handed them to Bella. I realized after a few minutes that Bella had made no moves so far to wash her self, she just played with the ducks.
"Bella, are you going to wash yourself soon?" I asked. She shook her head.
"No, mummy or Awi or mamma washes me," She said, "I to play with the duckies," She said happily and resumed her interest back to the toys.
"Okay," I said, I turned to the vanity and saw six different bottles on the counter.
What? I thought who uses six different things? I grabbed all six bottles and read each label. The different labels read; strawberry scented shampoo; for natural glowing hair, strawberry scented conditioner; for natural glowing hair, toddler milk; for smooth skin, sun-cream; for lasting protection, Johnson's baby body wash, Nivea; everyday exfoliater. I tossed the exfoliater and sun-cream behind me but kept the other four. I decided on washing Bella's hair first. I wet it carefully, so not to get it in her eyes and lathered it gently in her hair. I rinsed her hair and did the same with the conditioner. Then I settled for washing her.
"Ewar look," She said and held her hand out in front of me. I looked at her hands and saw that her fingers were going wrinkly. I better hurry up, I thought urgently as I saw Bella yawn. Bella had discarded her rubber ducks and started popping the few bubbles that remained in the water. I scrubbed her stomach, arms, legs and back but avoided the other area. I wiped her face with a small face-washer.
"Bella, I'm going to go and get you some clothes, okay?" I said to her. "I'll be back in a second." I walked into her bedroom and opened the door to the large walk-in closet. I saw on the back of the door a note,
Edward,
I took the liberty of choosing Bella's clothes for today; they are on the small table at the back of the closet. There is a second outfit picked as well, just in case. Make sure you dress her in the clothes I picked out for her, if you don't, I will know and you will be very sorry,
Alice xoxo
I smiled as I walked to the back of the closet. I leaned forward to grab the set of clothes when I heard loud thud and an ear piercing scream. I dropped the clothes on the floor and ran to the bathroom at vampire speed.
"Bella what happened?" I asked. I saw Bella lying in a heap on the floor next to the bathtub. I walked over to her in two strides and lifted her up in a second. Her head lolled around and I realized she had been knocked unconscious. I realized that she had pulled the plug out of the bath and figured that she had been reaching over the edge of the bath for her towel. I scooped up the towel in my free hand and walked to her room. I dried her carefully and was in the middle of putting her clothes on when I felt my phone vibrating in my back pocket. With one hand on Bella, I reached for the phone and flipped it open and saw the caller id: Alice.
"Hello," I said weakly, I was in for it, she had seen my carelessness. I just hoped that she hadn't told the others.
"Edward, how could you be so stupid?" She asked me, "You never leave a child unattended in the bath; you know that children can drown in water less that half an inch deep?" She said. I could hear growling in the background.
"I'm sorry Alice she's fine okay," I said.
"No she's not she's unconscious, but she will be awake in thirty-two seconds," Alice said to me.
"Give me the phone!" I heard Rosalie screeching at Alice. Oh great, Alice had told Rosalie, I was in for it now.
"How could you?" She yelled in my ear. "I swear, if I find one bump or bruise or anything on her you will pay dearly" Rosalie said in a menacing voice.
"Jeez, relax, Bella is fine," I said, she was stirring already.
"You better hope she's fine" Rosalie said angrily and the phone went dead. I flipped it shut and tossed it on the bed next to Bella, I continued dressing Bella, and by the time she opened her eyes again, she was fully dressed and cradled in my arms.
"Bella," I said barely above a whisper. "Bella, are you okay?" I asked. She nodded weakly so I placed her on her feet. "Can you tell me if it hurts anywhere?" I asked. She pointed to the left side of her head and I probed around gently. I felt a slight bump. I put the slightest amount of pressure and, before I knew it, Bella had hobbled off out of her room in a hurry. I followed her, worried and saw that she was heading for the bathroom. She stopped walking and swayed slightly. I stepped towards her and she vomited all over the floor. I walked to her and lifted her into my arms. I carried her downstairs and lay her gently on the couch.
"Bella, stay here okay, I will be back in a second," I said and rushed upstairs. I cleaned up the mess in vampire speed, and walked over to Carlisle's study, I had been to medical school a few years ago so I knew how much pain relief to give Bella, I opened the cabinet where Carlisle stored all his medical stuff he had bought home for Bella, I grabbed the bottle and walked downstairs, eager to see Bella and make sure she was okay, I had been listening to her heartbeat and breathing and both sounded normal. I poured the small amount of liquid Panadol in a small measuring cup and handed it to Bella.
"Bella sweetie, can you drink this?" I asked her. She looked at me, then at the small measuring cup in my hand and back at me.
"Okay," she said and took it from me with her small hands. I watched her drink and saw the face she pulled at the aftertaste. "That's yucky, I don't want it anymore," she said.
Two hours, four drawings, 3 books and one 20-minute nap later, Bella was completely energetic again and had completely forgotten about her accident this morning.
"Ewar, I wanna watch Dora the Explorer," she said to me.
"Bella, I think we should go outside for a while," I said.
"Please Ewar," she begged and bounced up and down on the spot. I would hate to upset her so I agreed and set up the much-loved Dora the Explorer DVD. I heard Bella run upstairs to her bedroom. Her small feet pattered down the hallway and into her room, I heard the creak of hinges and Bella was rummaging around her box of toys. A few minutes later Bella came hurrying down the stairs and she was holding her Dora the Explorer doll, Diego doll and boots doll. She sat down on the couch next to me, snuggling closer.
"Okay Ewar, I'm ready now," she told me and turned to face the TV screen. I pushed the play button and leaned back and pretended to watch the movie.
The movie played for about ten minutes before Bella started to get bored and fidget.
"Bella," I said.
"Yes Ewar?" She replied.
"Are you excited about tomorrow?" I asked.
"Yes, I so excited, I really wanna turn four, it's going to be so much fun and I wanna have a big birthday cake, and candles, and cards and I want Jazzy and you and Mummy and Awi and Emmy and Mamma and Daddy to sing the birthday song and give me a big hug," She said excitedly, completely forgetting about the movie that we had begun to watch.
"Bella, what presents do you want?" I asked her.
"Um, I don't really want any, I just want you and Jazzy and Awi and mummy and Emmy and Mamma and Daddy to be with me so I can have lots of fun," she said.
Wow a three year old that doesn't have a five page list of things she wants.
"Are you sure Bella?" I asked, I wanted her to feel comfortable around me, to feel comfortable around all of us, so she could ask for anything she needed.
"I'm sure Ewar, Shh, we is missing the movie," She said and turned her attention back to the TV. The show went on for another forty minutes and during that time Bella had fallen asleep in my arms. I stood gently, and walked up to her bedroom. One hand supporting her, I used the other to pull back the bedspread on her bed and I placed her in the middle softly. I covered her and sat in the rocking Jasper occupied.
"Hey sleepy," I said, Bella slept soundly for three hours and it was five o'clock in the afternoon. Bella jumped out of bed enthusiastically and ran across the room to the shelf that held all the toys that wouldn't fit in the box.
"Ewar, Ewar, can you play with me?" She asked happily, pointing to a huge dollhouse on the top shelf.
"Sure Bells," I replied and lifted it down with one hand. I placed it in front of her and she set it up how she wanted it. I sat down on the floor next to her and she stood moving the pieces of furniture.
"Ewar, you can hold this one, and I get the little girl and the puppy," she said handing me a small boy. I had no idea what to do. Bella had moved her doll to the kitchen and the girl doll was 'cooking' at the stove. I decided to be original and set my piece on the armchair watching television. I leaned back and watched Bella play happily. She was so absorbed in her game that she was oblivious to the fact that I was not playing. I watched her play for what seemed like a few minutes but before I knew it, my watch was beeping, telling me it was 6:30pm.
"Wow, Bella, it's getting late, we have to have some dinner and then it's bedtime," I said. Bella had been sleeping a lot today, I hoped that she was still tired enough to get to sleep easily tonight.
"But I'm having fun and Jessie still has to take Pat for a walk," she complained.
"Bella, please, you have to eat, I'll make you something yummy," I said.
"No, I wanna play with the dollhouse. Jessie has to take Pat for a walk," she insisted.
"Alright, five more minutes and then I am going to carry you downstairs for dinner if I have to okay?" I said.
"Alright," she agreed at kept playing with her dollhouse.
Twenty minutes later at ten to seven, I decided that it really was time to get Bella fed and ready for bed.
"Come on Bella, you've had plenty of time for Jessie to take Pat the dog for a walk," I said, "It's time for dinner."
"Alright," she agreed and put down the Jessie doll and stood up. I wondered what brought this on; I had been prepared for more arguing and negotiating. Then I heard her stomach rumble. I walked downstairs, Bella following close behind me. I sat her on the counter as I had done that morning, and at lunch and turned to fix her some spaghetti. I hadn't cooked in years so I settled on a can of wiggles spaghetti. I dumped the disgusting looked mush into a bowl and heated it in the microwave.
I blew on the spaghetti before I gave it to Bella, and I figured I had done it right because she wasn't complaining. It took at least half an hour to feed her the dinner and then I had to get her dressed and ready for bed. I carried her upstairs and walked into her closet and found a new pair of pyjamas. We went through quite a few before she settled on some that she liked – Piglet and Tigger from Winnie the Pooh. I took her out of the clothes, put a pair of dry nites on and the pyjamas and we went to the bathroom to brush her teeth. I took out her princess toothbrush from the cupboard above the sink in the main bathroom and handed her the milk teeth toothpaste, for children under the age of six. She brushed her teeth remarkably well and rinsed within five minutes. I carried her to bed and read her some of her bedtime book and then hummed a lullaby until she fell asleep. I waited until her breath was slow and steady before retreating downstairs. I check my phone; 21:37 the others were due to be back in about half an hour.
"Hey Eddie boy, Bella still in one piece," I heard Emmett thinking. They were close, I waited two minutes and that were running through the front door.
"Hey, how was it?" I asked.
"Oh man, it was great, you should have seen it. There were these three grizzlies and I was thinking, oh man, which one should I take down and the I decide that I'd take down the smallest one, only coz it was the angriest and I thought, this is going to be easy, it's so small and not nearly grumpy enough, so I decided to anger it up a bit you know, so I started throwing rocks an-"
"Emmett, I only asked to be polite, I don't really care," I cut Emmett off from what I'm sure would have been another really long bear tale.
"Is Bella still alive?" Rosalie asked sarcastically, "I swear, I'm going up to see her now and if I find one bruise or lump or marking on her anywhere I swear I will tear your arms off and hid them for a week," she said with as much venom in her voice as she could possibly manage. She turned and walked up the stairs behind Esme and Jasper to see Bella
Rosalie POV
Finally, I was home. I was so angry at Edward, he was so careless. How stupid do you have to be to leave a young child alone in a bathroom? She could have been seriously hurt, she could have died. Bella was sleeping soundly when I entered the room and Esme was rearranging the covers and Jasper was sitting beside the bed on the rocking chair. I walked to Bella and checked her quickly. I breathed out in relief; there were no bumps or bruises anywhere. I gave her a quick kiss on the forehead and left the room.
"You are so lucky," I said to Edward as soon as I entered the living room. I sat down beside Emmett. He kissed my lips and whispered in my ear,
"Rose baby, relax." God, he knew how to distract me. He lifted me easily into his arms and walked us upstairs to our room…
"Happy Birthday darlin'" I heard Jasper say upstairs.
"Morning Jazzy," Bella replied, yawning. We had all been downstairs in the living room ready to greet Bella when Alice told us she'd be up in 5 minutes. We heard Bella's bedsprings creak as she jumped into Jasper's arms and then Jasper's footsteps on the hallway above us.
Seconds later Jasper entered the room with Bella in his arms.
"Happy Birthday Bella," I said loudly along with everyone else.
"Daddy, you're home," She said smiling, usually; she wouldn't see Carlisle until 6:30 at night when he arrived home from the hospital.
"Of course sweetie, I would never miss your birthday," Carlisle said. Bella reached out to him and Carlisle took her from Jasper's arms. Bella hugged him as tightly as she could and Carlisle mimicked choking. "Wow, Bella, you do have a death grip," he said and we all laughed.
"Bella, you're 4 years old now, you're almost a big girl," I said.
"Yeah, I'm almost as big as you mummy," she said.
"Oh, I don't know, you're a lot closer to Alice than me sweetie," I said laughing. Alice glared at me but Bella smiled.
"Yeah."
"Bella, come and have some breakfast, Esme cooked you something special," Alice said and Carlisle walked her into the kitchen and placed her on the bench. Esme had cooked Bella pancakes with maple syrup.
"Yummy, thank you mamma," Bella said as I cut the food into small pieces that would fit in her mouth. Everyone was crowding around Bella, standing in various places around the bench in the middle of the kitchen. ***
"Awi, you want some pancake?" Bella asked politely.
"No Bella, I'm alright," Alice said.
"Please?" Bella said, picking up a piece of pancake from the plate with her hand, offering it to Alice.
"No Bella, I'm okay, I don't want any," Alice insisted.
"Please Awi," Bella said.
"Yeah, Alice have some," Emmett said laughing. Alice glared at Emmett and said,
"No, Bella, I already had some before," Alice said.
"Please, Please Awi," Bella said, pouting now.
"Oh fine," Alice said, a little too harshly, but she didn't want to make Bella cry on her birthday.
Alice took the small bit of pancake from Bella's hand and shoved it in her mouth and chewed quickly.
"Mmm, it's good," she said.
"Thank you Awi, I love you," Bella said.
"Oh, I love you too hunny," Alice said. Bella stood up on the tabletop and walked over to where Alice was sitting. Alice held her arms out and hugged Bella blissfully.
Bella finished her pancakes and we all walked into the lounge room. I lifted Bella up and sat her on my lap and everyone else sat down around us.
"Bella, Happy fourth birthday," Esme said and she walked into the room holding a stack of presents. She placed them in front of Bella and Bella looked at them wide-eyed.
"All of them?" she said.
"Of course Bella," we had only given her seven presents, one from each of us.
"Really?" she asked perplexed.
"Bella, all of the presents are for you, open them up," Jasper said.
"Thankyou," Bella said.
"Bella, why are you saying thankyou? You haven't opened the presents yet," Emmett said.
I handed her the present on top, Bella opened the card first and it said it was from Jasper.
"Mummy can you read it?" she asked me.
"Sure." I took the card from her and began to read
Dear Bella,
Happy Birthday!
I hope you like your present,
It's something we can all enjoy,
From Jasper.
Bella turned to the present and ripped it open. Inside was a stack of books that Jasper could read to her. Emmett would probably want to be included and act them out. Bella looked over at Jasper and started squirming in my arms. I realised what she wanted so I placed her on the ground. She walked over to Jasper unsteadily and jumped into his open arms.
"Thankyou Jazzy, I love them," She said, hugging Jasper.
"Your welcome, I'm glad you like them," Jasper said. "Come on, open the next present."
I chucked the next present to Jasper and he caught it and handed it to Bella.
Jasper opened the card and read it aloud:
My Darling Bella,
Happy Birthday!
Congratulations on turning four,
I hope you have a great day,
Love you sweetie,
Esme.
Bella opened the present and it was a large gold locket on a long thin chain, Bella fumbled with the clasp on the locket and eventually Jasper opened it and inside was a picture of all of us.
"Mamma, it's really pretty," Bella said and jumped off Jasper's lap and ran to Esme.
"Well I'm glad you like it," Esme said and hugged Bella. I tossed the next present, mine, to Esme and she read aloud the card. Bella couldn't wait to open her presents so we let her open them all and we would read the cards later. She opened the wrapping paper and found ten different photo frames.
"Bella, they're to put in your room, on the walls," I said.
"Thankyou mummy," Bella said and ran to me and hugged me. I kissed her on the top of her head,
"Your welcome sweetie," I said. I handed her the next present she ripped it open. Inside was a caterpillar CD case. Bella ran her hand over it and giggled.
"It's cool," she said giggling.
"Oh it now," I said and I tickled her gently in the ribs. She squealed and squirmed in my lap. I stopped and set her upright and she opened the CD case. The CD case held a few CDs.
"They have all the songs that you like on there Bella, the ones that I play on the piano. Now you can listen to my songs when I'm not here," Edward said.
"Thankyou Ewar," Bella said and once again she went to hug her present giver. Edwards lifted her onto his lap and she snuggled into him closer. The way she sat there and held him was odd, as if Edward was hers and hers only. I tossed the next present to Edward and he gave it to Bella. Bella opened the present and heaps of designer clothes spewed out onto her lap.
"Awi," she squealed, "they is not pink," she said happily and she tottered over to where Alice was sitting on the carpeted floor.
"I know how much you don't like pink so I got you lots of designer clothes in other colours," Alice explained. Bella was going through all the clothes until she found something she liked.
"Awi, this is my favourite," she declared and held up a little blue hoodie.
" you're right, that is pretty cute," Alice agreed. Bella was now in Alice's lap and I chucked another present to Bella. It landed in her lap and she opened it immediately.
Inside was a huge amount of pool and sand toys.
"Daddy!" she yelled. And jumped up and ran excitedly to Carlisle. "Yay daddy, thank you. Because you got me toys for the pool, it means you have to go in the pool with me now," Bella said excitedly.
"I'm glad you like them," Carlisle said.
"Daddy, will you go in the pool with me?" Bella asked happily.
"Absolutely," Carlisle agreed.
"Right now?" Bella asked.
"Hey, what about my present?" Emmett asked, the hurt was evident in his voice.
"Yay, another present," Bella exclaimed happily, clapping her hands.
"Okay, well for my gift Bella, you have to come outside," Emmett said. I was immediately suspicious as was the rest of the family; Alice had a glazed look on her face, looking in the future to find out what Emmett's surprise was. I saw Edward's face and it was as confused as mine. As much as I loved my husband, he really did some incredibly stupid things.
"Edward, what's he planning?" Carlisle asked wearily.
"I don't know, he was singing Miley Cyrus songs in his head yesterday, and I didn't think anything about it, until he started singing Barbie Girl in his head this morning," Edward explained.
"Miley Cyrus?" I asked. "Barbie Girl? Really Emmett?"
"Hey, I like those songs," Emmett defended. Carlisle had placed Bella on Emmett's back for a piggy back ride. A specialty of Emmett's. Emmett stalked outside with Bella and we had no choice but to follow him.
"Okay Bella close your eyes," He demanded as soon as he reached the front door. He led us down through the forest to a large clearing. When he stopped walking Bella opened her eyes and looked at the large cardboard box in the middle of the clearing.
"What is it?" Bella asked curiously. Esme walked over to Emmett and lifted Bella off his back and placed her on the ground. Bella stumbled forwards towards the box and when she reached it she squealed in delight.
"Emmy, it's the best present ever," she said as she ran towards Emmett. A cardboard box? I thought. I stepped forward at the same time that Alice gasped and Edward groaned. I looked in the box and gasped, horrified.
DUM, DUM, DUM!
Ha-ha, Cliffy. You'll have to wait until next time to find out what's in the box. You can try to guess what's in the box and you'll get a special mention if you do. If you get it right, I'll dedicate the next chapter to you!
*** This is a link to the picture of the kitchen the Cullen's have. I'm not really good at describing.
I don't think Dora the Explorer is a movie so just imagine that the movie is a DVD with episodes of shows on it or something. If it is a movie, well, then GREAT :)
