Alrighty here's the flashbacks I promised! They're a little short, but what the heck? They're cute and well…cute!
-Edward- (Alex is 1 along with the other two)
My babies screaming filled my ears as I rushed to her bedroom to find her in her crib with a pouty lip and tears in her beautiful emerald eyes. I gently picked up her fragile form, leaning her against my chest and rocking her back and forth. I whispered comforting things in her ear as she calmed down to my soothing voice. Only the guys were home tonight and the woman went hunting.
I leaned Alexandra back, looking at her as she looked up at me with curious eyes. She was the curious one of the family, always watching what we were doing. "What are you doing?" I asked in one of my baby voices she loved. She giggled, kicking her feet a little. "Are you my baby girl? Are you daddy's little girl?" I asked as I hugged her close and started to spin around. She giggled in my ear and I smiled. I was so glad Cassandra gave us the gift to have one child. I was so glad to have my little girl in my arms.
"Can grandpa see your little girl Edward?" asked a voice from behind me. I turned to see Carlisle leaning against the doorway with a smile on his face. I nodded, gently handing her off to her grandpa. She smiled, laughing when he made funny faces at her. She loved her grandpa. He was the only one, besides me and my wife, who could calm Alexandra down in a moments notice. He was like that with all the kids. Everyone loved grandpa in the house of the Cullens. He handed her back to me, saying he had to visit his other grandchildren before heading to the new hospital he was going to work for, for the next seven years. I nodded, rocking Alexandra back and forth before she fell asleep in my arms.
-Emmett- (Still age one for Gabe)
"Eww!!" I yelled as I held Gabriel arms length away from me. He had a huge smile on his face and was laughing at me as I ran into the front room where everyone was watching Underworld while the other two munchkins slept in their cribs. "Ew!" I yelled as Gabriel started laughing harder. "He pooped!! Rose, what do I do?!"
Jasper and Edward started laughing their butts off at me as Rose came up and took Gabriel from my arms. She held him very close, kissing her baby's cheek with a motherly affection. "Well, for one you better keep it down or the others won't wake up. And second, you change his diaper for crying out loud. Did you pay attention in the father classes at all?"
"No," I said as I backed away from my son. He frowned, reaching out for me. His eyes were so innocent that I had to come back and carry him upstairs along with my wife. Damn Gabriel and his precious baby eyes. We walked into his room, placing him on his little changing table. I waited for Rosalie to start with the changing process.
"Nuh-uh," she shook her head. "You're changing your son for once in your immortal life." She left without a moments notice, leaving me with my smelly son. He looked up at me as if I was an idiot.
I slowly, started taking off his diaper, my body a ways away from the nasty little present from hell. The smell made me step back for a good ten seconds. Gabriel was laughing his little toosh off. It's like he knew what was going on! I stepped forward again, plunging my nose and holding my breath. I stopped; I couldn't do this without equipment. In a flash I was gone and back. Now, I was wearing goggles that covered my nose, an apron, gloves, and carrying tongs in my hands. Gabriel laughed even harder as I started to take off the diaper using the tongs. Inside it was something far from chocolate. I nearly gagged as rushed the diaper over to this special garbage for diapers and came back. I started to wipe the nasty poo off his butt, gagging still and throwing that away. I sighed, taking off the gloves and putting on a new clean diaper. I picked up Gabriel, looking at him through my goggles. "I will have my revenge." I said in a serious tone. His smile disappeared, leaving a vengeful look in his eyes. This meant war.
-Jasper- (Cute little One year old Fallon)
I laid on my bed with Fallon on top of my chest. He was looked at me and I at him. He was only one year old and we were now having staring contests. Jeez! I don't know what Cassandra did to these guys when she gave my wife the gift of having a child, but it was kind of scary. How could a baby hold a stare that long? It was almost impossible! Finally, Fallon started to giggle a little on my chest, making me smile. Then he started to cry out in annoyance. I guess tummy time was over for him. I laid him on his back, getting up from the bed and sitting against the headboard. Fallon looked at me with an observing eye, burping after a long while. I laughed, picking him up and giving him a kiss on the forehead. I felt a burst of happiness coming off of him as Alice came into the room and sat down on the bed with me.
"Hey big boy," she said, taking Fallon and hugging him close. He made a happy kind of noise that made us smile. "Is someone happy today?" she asked while showering him with kisses. He giggled, putting his hands on her faces. Uh-oh, he was starting to get a little hyper. Just then, he started slapping himself with wide eyes. I hoped he wouldn't be as hyper as Alice. I sent waves of calm to my son, relaxing him and putting him into a soundless sleep.
"He's so precious," I whispered, kissing my wife tenderly on the lips. "We did good." Alice smiled at me, then looking at our son who lay sleeping in her arms.
Ello!
Okay, let it out. Awwwwwwww...
I had a lot of fun with Emmett's point of view.
Missa.
