BPOV
I woke up the next morning to something warm; I sat up and looked down seeing Emmett laying there sleeping soundly. I got out of bed and headed into bathroom quietly so I would not wake Emmett up; once I was finished I walked out of the bedroom and headed to the kitchen to fix breakfast.
"Smells good" I heard behind me
"Good morning" I said
"Morning" he replied wrapping his arms around me
"Coffee is ready" I said
"Thanks" he said heading over to the coffee pot
I carried the pot to the table and grabbed two plates and silverware; I sat down at the table getting myself some breakfast as I watched as Emmett sat down next to me getting himself some breakfast. We ate in silence other then Emmett looking at me the whole time we were eating; once we were finished I started to get up to gather the dishes but saw Emmett shake his head and gathered the dishes walking over to the sink and started washing them.
"You didn't have to do that" I said
"I wanted to, you made breakfast" he told me
"Thank you" I said
"Can I ask you a question?"I asked him
"Sure" he said turning around
"I know it's none of my business but where is Lily's mom?" I asked
"Well, that's a long story" he said sighing
"You don't have to answer" I told him
"I met Heidi seven years ago; we were friends for a while but then became exclusive, well everything was great we spent a lot of time together and were there for each other if something went wrong. Well, one day when I went over to her house I saw her sitting on the porch; she then told me she was pregnant, and I was ecstatic at the thought of having a baby. She did not want it; she tried to get me to agree for her to have an abortion, when I told her that I was against the whole idea of abortions she had an attitude but kept the baby, the whole time she was putting me down in little ways. The day that she went into labor I was happy that my little one was born; she yelled at me but I never heard any of it with me just waiting for Lily after my daughter was born Heidi signed her rights away and never saw her again" he said
"I'm sorry to hear that; but luckily you have Lily, and I am glad that you stopped her from having an abortion. I really don't see why you would have an abortion; I mean if you didn't want the baby and you were alone then why not just try to care for the child then you would love the baby or give it up for adoption" I told him
"Thank you" he said
I went into the bathroom and took a quick shower; I go dressed at walked into the living room seeing Emmett sitting on the couch in different clothing then this morning, I walked over to him and sat down next to him waiting for him to look up.
"Sorry about that" he said looking up
"Its fine" I said smiling at him
We spent a few hours together before we went to go pick up the kids; I watched as he pulled out of the driveway heading down the street after a while I got into my car and headed off to my dad's place.
EMPOV
Being with Bella was wonderful; I could see my life with her and our kids, I was sad to leave her but I knew that she needed to go pick up her son and I needed to pick my Lily bug up. Once I pulled into my parents driveway I noticed that my parents outside while pushing Lily on the swing; when Lily saw me she squealed in an Alice like manner and got off the swing just as my mom stopped it.
"Daddy" she squealed jumping in my arms
"Hey baby girl" I said holding to me
"Were you a good girl" I asked tickling her
"Yes" she said giggling
"She was an angel; she helped me in the kitchen while telling me all about Bella" my mom said
"Thank you for watching her" I told my parents
"It's no problem" they said
I stayed a little longer before putting Lily in the Jeep buckling her up and getting into the driver seat and headed back home; I started thinking about Bella and wondering if she would agree to be my girlfriend, I just hope that if we start dating our kids will not mind.
"Lily" I said about ten minutes from the house
"Yes daddy?" she asked
"What do you think of Bella?" I asked her
"I like Miss Bella" she said
"I like her too baby girl" I said
"Daddy, where's my mommy?" she asked
I have been dreading this question ever since I brought Lily home from the hospital; I have tried to figure out what I was going to tell her, I knew that I could not tell her that she did not want her. I didn't realize that we arrived back at the house; when I helped Lily out of the Jeep I walked inside with her in my arms and headed to the couch and sat down.
"Lily bug, there are sometimes that stuff happen between mommies and daddies are not together anymore but that doesn't mean that they don't love their child" I said sadly hoping that I would not have to lie to her again
"Okay" was all she said getting off my lap heading to her bedroom
I prayed that I did not make her sad about what was said; I got up from the couch and headed to the kitchen and started making lunch while thinking about what I would say next if asked about her mother again.
EdPOV
I have yet to hear from Emmett telling me how his date was; I remembered that he had called me a week ago where would be a good place to take Bella out for a date, when I told him La Bella Italia he started questioning me about it.
Flashback
I just arrived home from work to be with my Rosie; I stepped inside the house and headed to the living room where I hear the television, just as I was close to the couch my phone rang.
"Hello?" I answered
"Edward, please help me. I need to find a restaurant that would be wonderful to take Bella to" he said
"Calm down" I said chuckling
"Fine" he said
"Since this would be your first date, show her how romantic you can be and take her to 'La Bella Italia" I told him
"But don't you think that restaurant would be better for a second date?" he asked me
"It's good for any, but why don't you take her to the restaurant and go from there" I said
"Okay, I am trusting you on this" he said
"I want you to call me when the date is over" I told him chuckling
He said fine before hanging the phone up so can get everything taken care of; once I put the phone down I sat down next to Rose and pulled her onto my lap with her complaining that she was heavy but I didn't hear any of that and put my hands on her belly.
End flashback
I looked at the time and realized that it was time for lunch and headed down to the cafeteria to grab some lunch; once I was sitting down and started eating I looked up and saw Emmett walking towards me with Lily on his hip.
"Hey" he said sitting down
"Hey, how did it go?" I asked him
"Went well" was all he said
"That's it?" I asked
"We had a wonderful time" he said
He then started telling me what they did and then he told me that he didn't plan on staying there but ended up spending the night with her and how she fit perfectly in his arms. Once lunch was over with I had to be back to work and watched as Emmett and Lily left to go home.
EMPOV
After we left the hospital I decided to make a detour to Bella's house to spend time with her and to ask her if she would be my girlfriend even though saying the word girlfriend makes me sound high school, once I arrived at her house I got Lily out of the Jeep and headed to the door. Lily wanted to ring the doorbell so I put her down slightly and watched as she rang the doorbell, we stayed there for a few minutes before the door opened up.
"Hey Bella" I said smiling at her
"Hey, come in" she said opening the door
"Lily bug, go play with Charles" I said softly
"Okay daddy" Lily said running through the house to find Charles
"How are you Bella?" I asked her
"I'm fine, and you?" she asked
"I'm great, can I ask you something?" I asked her nervously
"Sure" she said looking at me with her brown eyes
"I was wondering if you would be my girlfriend?" I asked watching her for any signs of her laughing at me
"I would love to be your girlfriend Emmett" she said smiling at me
I knew I was smiling but I didn't care if I was making a fool of myself in front of her; Lily and I stayed there the rest of the day and Bella and I cooked dinner together, when we finished dinner I didn't want to leave but knew that Lily needed to go to sleep. I put Lily in the Jeep and went over to Bella pulling her in my arms and leaned down kissing her lips softly before pulling back and getting in and headed home; I walked Lily to her room after arriving home and went to be myself.
