I wake up to Bella tugging on my shirt a smile gracing her beautiful lips. Her head is propped up on my chest and her little hands rest on my arms.
"Daddy, Daddy Wake up!"
I look her up and down, laughing.
"Eager are we?"
"Alice is coming!"
I turn to look at the clock, it's 9:30. Crap! Aro will be here with the girls at 10.
"Bella hurry up and get ready if you want to see her."
Bella jumps up out of the bed and dshes off to get ready. I get up and ready myself for the long day. Not only will the girls be arriving, they will also be officially introduced to their mates and the family. I quickly ready myself and take Bella downstairs. I grab and apple and instruct our head cook Sue to fix Bella some eggs. Leaving her for the first time I rush towards the back of the house. The guards were instructed to send Aro's entorauge in through the back gate so the girls can be given a proper entrance with their mates.
I hear the roar of an engine so I open the door and step out to see a limo pull up. Aro climbs out and closes the door behind him. I hear the babbling of many voices and know the girls are in there.
"Hello Aro."
"Edward."
"You have brought all the girls?"
"Yes Sir, they await."
"Bring them out."
Aro motions and the door opens. The girls file out one by one. He introduces each girl then I direct them into a sitting room right inside the door. The final young woman is introduced as Alice, Bella's friend. She's a short little young woman who can only be described as a pixie. I say goodbye to Aro and walk into the room where the girls are waking. I call Jasper and instruct him to round up the boys and bring Bella with them.
"Hello ladies, my name is Edward and I'm the boss. The boys will be here momentarily. Today will be a busy day. After you meet your mates there will be an official family introduction."
I hear the loud footsteps of my men. I smile when I see them all laughing and tlaking with my Bella. She breaks from the group and runs towards me wrapping her arms around me. I smile and turn to see the boys staring at the various women. I wait for a hint of prefrence. Automatically I see Jasper smile at Alice, and James devour Victoria. I call attention to the room and prepare to make the introductions. I pair everyone up and I see nothing but smiles.
Alice and Jasper speak only for a minute before Alice and Bella are running towards each other happily. They go and sit on the couch laughing happily. I'm so rapt in the girls I don't hear Jasper aproach.
"Their so cute."
"That they are."
"We'll have to come up with a play schedule."
"I hate to say it, but we may have to limit their time together."
"Not may, we will."
