Chapter 10

Welcome Home

BPOV

Finally, the last of the horrible medical stuff had been loaded into Little E's room.

Carlisle had hired his most trusted staff to stay with us.

They'd pull 72 hour shifts each. In their down time, they'd sleep in the guest room across the hall from Little E.

I'd be able to help out to an extent, but I was just happy to finally have my baby back home.

Finally the big day.

I was so nervous, it was like I'd just given birth and was bringing him home for the first time.

In a sense this was his first time in our new home.

Edward brought him home, after his shift, they both looked so tired.

I helped Little E into bed and kissed and hugged him for the first time with no barriers, it was fantastic.

Carlisle agreed that Waffles could stay in the room, as long as I kept him bathed, no problem, he was washed once a week.

When Little E sat in bed, I brought Waffles in and he slowly made his way over, once Little E said his name, the dog jumped on his bed and he giggled, hugging Waffles.

I left the room, for the nurses to finish hooking him up and to grab a snack for him.

I went downstairs to see Edward chopping up fruit.

"Whatcha doin'?" I asked casually.

"Getting my beautiful fiance' and son an afternoon snack." he smiled.

I poured juice for all of us and Edward placed the drinks and fruit on a tray and carried it upstairs.

We sat with Little E for a couple of hours, talking and finding out how he liked this.

He was already wanting to have a welcome home party, but I told him we'd almost have to wait a while for that one….

I couldn't believe today I was bringing my son home.

Bella let me bring him, she knew this is hard for me, but it's one experience, I wasn't there to bring him home the first time.

We arrived home and Bella helped me take him to his room, to an awaiting Waffles, we left for the nurses to do their things and we went to make a snack.

We waited for a few minutes to make sure they were done with Little E.

We walked into his room and he was fast asleep with Waffles at his feet.

We kissed his head and ducked out of the room quietly.

We went to our room, turned on the state of the art monitor with video and sound, to be able to keep an eye on our precious son,.

"I'm so glad he's home." Bella said.

"I think I can finally relax. He's going to be o.k., isn't he…" Bella sighed.

"Yeah, I think so." I kissed Bella's forehead.

Then I kissed down Bella's neck and well, that was the end of all conversation.

We fell asleep in each others arms, until the screaming started.

Bella jumped out of the bed, throwing on her p.j.'s and making me fall onto the floor, not realizing what was happening, she was upstairs and in the room, before I had time to register what had happened.

Bella ran into Little E's room with the nurse trying to comfort him, but the screams still came, Bella shoved her out of the way, making her fall on her ass, screaming at her to get away from her son, "Baby, what's wrong? Tell mommy." she soothed him with sweet kisses all over his face and head.

"Mommy, I dreamed I wasn't at home and I was back in the hospital, not able to touch you or daddy or Waffles." he had tears running down his face.

I was there now and holding Bella, while she held our son.

"Baby, don't worry, we're here and not going anywhere, O.K." Bella kissed his head.

He smiled and yawned, telling us he wanted to go back to sleep.

We kissed him and told him we'd be in our room if he needed us, just to say our names and we'd be there, he smiled and snuggled into his bed, with Waffles at his feet.

I looked at Bella and told her she needed to apologize to the nurse, so she crossed the hallway and knocked on her door.

She told Bella to come in, I stood in the doorway and she had a frightened look on her face.

"Jackie, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to shove you like that, it's just I haven't been without my son ever, until all this happened and I couldn't be with him through the worst of this and now that he's home, when I heard his screams, I saw red and I was panicking. I an so very sorry, I won't let it happen again, I was just so scared." Bella told her.

"Mrs. Cullen, it is completely O.K." she started.

"Oh, it's Ms. Swan still, Edward and I haven't married yet, we're waiting for Little E to get better." Bella smiled at her.

"Well, Ms. Swan, no matter it's fine, I think I'd react the same way. I don't have children yet, but I know I'd feel that same since of possession. Think no more of it." she hugged Bella and I walked in and thanked her, "No problems Dr. Cullen" she smiled.

With that, I carried Bella downstairs, she was completely wiped out.

The next morning, Bella was still sleeping, so I called Rose and asked if her and Kelsi would like to come over to visit, while I went to work, letting her know what happened last night and how anxious Bella had been, she agreed and they would be over around 10a.m.

I went to kiss Bella before I left and she was clammy and pale.

She stirred before I left and I asked her if she was O.K., she smiled and shook her head, yes. I told her that Rose and Kelsi were coming over today and she was happy with that, I also let her know I checked in on Little E and he was having his first treatment of the morning.

We kissed again before I left for work. "See you tonight Dr. Cullen." she smiled seductively at me.

I groaned and blew her a kiss before leaving.

BPOV

I slept like shit last night after Little E's outburst, I couldn't fall into a deep sleep, even as Edward held me and sang me to sleep, then to wake up this morning feeling like shit, uugghh, now to get ready fro company and I knew Edward was just looking out for me, but I wanted Little E's first full day to be with me, I know that greedy, but I hadn't had him all to myself in a while, even though he was going to enjoy Kelsi being here.

I showered and dressed for the day, putting on my jeans, they were tight, so I knew I was getting bloated and that's why I felt like shit, I was getting ready to start my period, I groaned and went to grab a pair of relaxed fit jeans instead if the skinny ones I was trying to put on and then I grabbed a brown ¾ sleeve v-neck sweater to wear and my brown and pink converse.

I walked into Little E's room and the nurse asked if I'd like to see how to give him a shower.

I nodded and we walked into his bathroom, it wasn't much different than a normal shower, with the exception that there were caps to put on the ends of the little ports sticking out of his hand and that I had to be careful not to get him too hot in the shower, other than that, it was easy.

I was glad he didn't have to be hooked up to the machines 24/7 so he and Kelsi would be able to come downstairs and play, granted inside, but at least a different scenario if Little E wanted to leave his room.

I dressed him in a pair of black basketball shorts and a team jersey Edward had gotten him and just let him wear his socks in the house. He also wanted one of Edward beenies for his head, so I found his black one for Little E to wear.

A little after 10, the bell rand and it was Kelsi and Rose, Kelsi squealed and ear piercing noise, that I was surprised didn't shatter my glass wall… Her and Little E hugged for ages and then held hands and ran upstairs, I turned on the monitor in the living room and grabbed Rose and I a cup of coffee and a plate of pastries.

"Bells, you look like shit!" Rose exclaimed as we sat back to talk.

"Thanks for just being so blunt!" I scolded teasingly.

"Well, with everything you've been through, I'm surprised you didn't have a nervous breakdown." Rose replied.

"You and me both and if I didn't have Edward, I don't know what I would have done. He's been a saint." I replied.

"So when is the big day?" Rose asked.

"Well, we've got to wait to make sure Little E is going to be fine and then we need to plan it." I smiled weakly.

"Look, let Alice, Esme and I plan it, I know that would make them more than happy and I know you've got your plate full right now, so this would help out, all you'd have to do is tell colors and find a dress." Rose begged.

I couldn't say no to that, it was to good to pass up.

I told her yes and she squealed.

We called Esme and Alice and let them know what was going on and they were all coming over tomorrow to plan everything, now I just had to break it to Edward.

Rose and Kelsi stayed for about 5 hours, we had to peel Kelsi away from Little E, but it was time for his treatment and then a nap, before dinner, so she understood and was happy she'd be back tomorrow.

Edward called about 6 and said there was an accident and he'd have to stay and help and the road was closed to the hospital for at least 2 more hours, so it made sense.

I sighed, but understood, so I made a quick dinner for Little E and I and went to wake him.

The nurse unplugged everything and I carried him downstairs to eat.

We talked about his play date with Kelsi and how she kept talking about Barbie's and she was bringing some to play with tomorrow, he shuddered at the thought of playing with dolls.

Edward came home the next morning and woke me, I let him know of what was going on today, he smiled and said he would sleep upstairs in the music room on the futon, so he didn't here us and the music room was sound proof, so the kids playing wouldn't bother him either.

He was fine with anything I wanted for the wedding, as long as he got a say so in the cake and music.

I made a deal with him and he took his shower and escaped before the ladies got there.

Kelsi gave me a hug and ran up to Little E's room with her box of Barbie's, we all giggled as we heard Little E groan over the monitor. "Well, he comes by that naturally doesn't he?" Alice joked.

I stuck my tongue out at her and we proceeded to the kitchen.

We worked all day and had my dress and everything picked out.

Esme insisted in having it at their house, of course.

It would be very romantic, at twilight with hundreds of twinkle lights and candles and Edward wanted to have a Big Band, so I told Alice she was to get with him for auditions and that we were going to pick the cake ourselves, that only left their dresses… we decided on simple black for both, as I wanted this to be just simple black and white. It was elegant, just like Edward, which they all laughed at.

We had a great time planning and chatting the afternoon away, around 3 p.m., a very sexy and shirtless and sex haired, Edward came wandering into the kitchen, half asleep.

"Hey sexy" Rose said in a sultry voice and Edward gasped, turned red and walked out of the kitchen, because of course just waking up, he had a hard-on and was rubbing himself when he walked in.

We all giggled and Esme was shaking her head. "I'll be right back ladies, let me take my sweetie some coffee, I know that's what he wants.

I poured a cup for him and walked to our bedroom, where he was on his back with his hands over his eyes.

"Why didn't you say something Bells, they all saw me rubbing my junk, even my mom!" he whined.

"I'm sure they've seen it before dear, you just have grown up so now it's embarrassing, which I'm grateful for." I leaned over and kissed him and told him his coffee was beside the bed.

I walked back to the kitchen and everyone was packing up.

"We'll do this again next week and I'll show you my plans and I'll get with Edward on auditioning those bands, as well." Alice said.

We called for Little E and Kelsi, they whined, but I told then in a couple of weeks, we'd be seeing Kelsi everyday, they were both excited over that.
