Chapter 10: Catching Up
Marcus's POV
Wow. I never thought I'll see Bella pregnant but here she is and she has kids.
"Well are you going to give me a hug?" she asks grinning
I quickly shake myself out of my shock and make my way over to her and pull her into my arms.
"We have missed you Bella", I say
"I have missed you too", she replies letting me go
Soon everyone is hugging and greeting both Edward and Bella.
"Do you mind telling us what has happened in the past 20 years?" Carlisle says them
"Sure. But lets go some where more private", Edward suggests
We all nod in agreement. Edward goes over and picks up the little boy and looks around at the group so does Bella.
"Where are Nat, Jace, and the boys?" Bella asks Stella
"Nat and Jace took off as soon as they got here. The boys we have no idea about", she replies
Edward and Bella both groan. That leaves us a bit confused.
"Edward to you mind going to find them. I'll do with dad to where we are going to have this talk", Bella suggests
That's when we hear a crush. We all quickly go inside to see our guards in a heap on the floor covered in floor.
"Nathan Masen, Jace Masen, Nick, Kyle, Jamie and Mike get your butts out here right now!" Bella yells
We wait but they don't come out.
"Don't make me find you. I swear it won't be good for you", Bella threatens
Seconds later the boys come out of hiding smiling slightly.
"I take it you did this prank?" she asks is a deathly calm voice
"They did love. I just read their thoughts", Edward says coming up to stand with her
"You're all grounded. For a month", she says
They all groan.
"And no allowance for a month either. Same with video games", Edward adds
They all groan again.
"Do you want us to make it more?" Bella threatens
They all quickly stop their winning.
"Since that is taking care of. Let's go and catch up shall we?" Edward asks pleasantly
We all nod not used to Bella and Edward disciplining children. We all quickly make our way into the throne room telling the guards we don't want to be disturbed. Edward quickly helps Bella into a chair and she sits down we a sigh.
"I'm too big to stand up long", she explains to us
"How far along are you?" Carlisle asks as we all sit down
"7 months. Not far to go now. I hope I am only having one baby this time. I don't think I can handle another set of twins", Bella replies looking at Thomas Castle
He chuckles, "I'm sure there is only one child in there"
"We have heard that before", Edward says rolling his eyes
"Do you mind introducing us to your children? Telling us their names and ages", Aro asks
"Of course. Our eldest is Anthony Jacob or AJ he is named after his father and Jacob of course and he is 17 years old", Bella says pointing at the young man with brown hair and green eyes
"This is Renesmee Elizabeth or Nessie she is named after Renee, Esme and Edward's mother she is AJ's twin and mate of Carter Castle", Edward says pointing to the young woman with bronze hair and brown eyes
"Nest is Jemmett Demetri or Jem he is 16 he is named after Jasper, Emmett and Demetri", Bella says pointing to the boy with bronze hair and green eyes
"This is Alirose Charlotte or Ali she is 16 and is Jemmett's twin. She is named after Alice, Rose and Charlotte", Edward says pointing at the girl with bronze hair and green eyes
"This is Nathan Peter or Nat he is 14 and he is named after Peter", Bella says point at the boy with bronze and brown hair
"This is Jace Marcus he is 14 and twin of Nathan he is named after John, Anton, Carmen, Eleazar and Marcus. The first letter of all your names make up his name", Edward explains pointing to the boy who looks identical to his twin
"This is Lillian Jane she is 13 and named after Rose and Jane", Bella says pointing to the girl that could be her double
"This is Adrian Carlisle he is 12 and is named after Carlisle", Edward says point to a boy with brown hair and gold eyes
"And the little boy is Edward's arms is Jackson Caius he is 4 years old and is named after Caius", Bella says pointing at the boy in Edward's arm who had bronze hair and gold eyes
We take a minute to let it all sink in. We can't believe they named their kids after us.
"Wow. Thank you", I say simply
The others say similar things.
"When did you two get married?" Alice asks looking excited
"3 years after we left", Bella replies
"Where did you get married?" Charlotte asks
"Las Vegas", Edward replies immediately
"How come you look older then want you are?" Peter asks
"Nick has the power to change a persons age. He aged us to 30", Bella replies
"What do you two do for a living?" Tony asks
"Bella writes books and I work as a doctor at the ER", Edward replies
"Where have you been all this time?" Jasper asks
"Chicago, Boston, and Detroit" Bella says
"You didn't move regularly?" Caius asks
"We didn't see the point when Nick come into our lives and could make us look older and younger", Edward replies
"Do all the kids go to school? Or are they home schooled?" Esme asks
"They all go to school. Nat and Jace are the trouble makers. I lost count of the number of times we have better call to the principles office", Bella replies
"Why did you stay away so long?" I ask
They both sigh and look at each other.
"We stayed away because Bella wasn't ready to go back. But after hearing about your problem we decided to come back. Bella decided she was ready to come home", Edward explains for Bella
"Are you alright now? You weren't right all those years ago?" Carlisle asks concerned
"I'm fine now dad. You don't have to worry about me", Bella replies smiling
We all nod our heads processing what we have learnt.
"I think we will let you be so the information we have given you can sink in", Bella says
"Let me show you to your rooms", Jane says
"Don't bother. I already saw are rooms. We will get their on our own. Have a good night", Edward says helping Bella up
They quickly leave with their family leaving us to our thoughts. We have a lot to think about…
