Chapter 12: Edward's return; Bella's reaction
Alice POV
"Well, Edward, do you care now?" I asked for the hundredth time, but all I heard was him trying to calm down his breathing. I was now wondering if maybe he would come home after all. Knowing him, this is probably just his reaction to the sudden news, and then he would catch the first plane here right now. He better, because if not I just might drag him here by the ear myself. "Well? Answer me! Or else I'll hang up."
"No, Alice. I need your support."
"Edward, were are more than thousands of miles apart, how can I possibly support you?"
"Through the phone."
I rolled my eyes. "I was being sarcastic, Edward."
"It doesn't matter." I sighed impatiently.
"I think you should talk to Carlisle, because quite frankly, I'm getting annoyed with your ignorance."
"Fine, I'd like to speak to him anyway." I pulled the phone away from my ear and ran upstairs.
"CARLISLE!!!!! He wants to speak with you."
"I thought he was unreachable." Carlisle quietly came downstairs to not disturb Bella, who was sleeping for a while now.
"Apparently, the news gave him a kick in the ass."
"ALICE!!!! I EXPECT IT FROM EMMETT, BUT NOT YOU!!!!" Esme came downstairs, a grimace surrounding her mother-like features, as if she was catching her good daughter sticking her hand in the cookie jar even when she was told not to before dinner.
"Sorry, mom."
"Give me the phone." Carlisle held his hand out.
"Edward," Carlisle said calmly, he knew what was coming next, "Edward there is no need to shout."
"Volatile jerk," I muttered under my breath.
"There is no need to cry either, she's absolutely perfectly fine…yes, I checked her myself…wonderful, we'll all be a family again." Carlisle shut the phone with a flick of his hand. I squealed.
"He's coming! He's coming! He's coming!" I danced around
the house clapping my hands together. Finally, our family would be
complete.
Bella's POV (A\N: I think I'm gonna cry.)
Alice told me he was coming. Coming home. I would have thought it would have been great if I didn't know he was only coming because of his children. Of course he still didn't want me. He had only decided to come after Alice had told him I was pregnant. I took deep steady breaths, calming myself. In less than a few hours he would be here. I've been lying in bed for almost two days now, only getting up once for a bath and necessary human moments. I haven't eaten anything in I don't now how long. I haven't slept all night like I was supposed to. It's not that Esme neglected to feed me, it was quite the opposite. But every time I smelled food, I became violently sick. They didn't know what was wrong with me. I felt dizzy, and like I would slip into unconsciousness at any moment. I didn't move. I just stared into space, not even thinking at all really. Thinking leads to pain. I don't think I could handle pain in my current state of fragileness. My hands rubbed my bloating belly unconsciously, running my fingers up, down, and across. My touch was feather light. I was hoping for some kind of response, a kick maybe. They have never kicked before. I wonder if they felt as miserable as I felt. I felt tears prickle in my eyes, thinking that they were depressed because I was depressed. I was making it worse. I had a sudden urge of warmth radiate through me, and protectiveness. I never realized how true my mother had been about "mother's intuition" until now. She spoke the truth. I'd do anything for my children, even if I have to die trying. I had a sudden thirst for something, but it wasn't water. What could it be then? I had no idea. I felt myself drift into darkness, something I hadn't done in a while.
Not even 20 minutes later I heard arguing outside my door. It was Rosalie's voice that was the loudest mostly because she was blocking my door by the sound of it, and also, no one could be louder than Rosalie, except maybe Alice.
"Rosalie this is absolutely absurd let me through!" Oh, God. I'd now that voice anywhere. Soft like velvet…
"No! If your stupid enough to hurt her once, you'll do it again. This causes her stress."
"Rosalie, what do you care? Before Bella's pregnancy, you didn't give a damn about her. For all you knew, she was, 'an intruder that complicated our lives'."
"SHUT UP!!! I care about her now, she and I understand each other."
"Like hell. Now let me through."
"Over my pile of ashes."
"Rosalie, I swear to God that's what you will become if. You. don't. move. Out. Of. My. Damn. way."
"Hey, don't talk to Rose like that." Emmett.
"What are you going to do about it?" Now, that, is where I had to interrupt.
I opened the door, and they're all they stood. Perfect and beautiful as ever staring at me. I felt myself finding it hard to breath steadily, I was starting to pant for air as the waters of darkness began to drown around me like an ocean in the middle of a storm. Cold. That's what I felt. The only thing I felt. I vaguely heard them calling my name, more like screaming. But I couldn't hear them to well. It's like I was drowning, and drowning quickly. The stress was taking over, leaving any trace of consciousness I had left. My eyes rolled to the back of my head and closed. Before I slipped into the dark, I felt about four cold hands breaking my fall. And then everything went black.
*** (A\N: You are so lucky I didn't just leave it off there.)
"Alice, have you seen when she will wake up?"
"In about five minutes, Edward. Be patient. I wouldn't be surprised if she could here us right now."
"I can't help to think this is all my fault."
"It's not Edward. Bella hasn't eaten in days even though how much Esme would persuade her. It was no use, she would throw it back up anyway. You heard what Carlisle said, her sugar was extremely low, and so was her stamina. She's been under stress for days, not because of your return, but because she was nervous of the health of her children."
"Oh, Alice. I know it's my fault. If I hadn't fought with Rosalie like I had and threatened Emmett, maybe she wouldn't have fainted. She was nervous, Jasper felt it. She didn't want to be the cause of anything that might tear the family apart."
"Edward, as much as you and I both know how it's true what you said about the family feuding, but you've got to trust Carlisle, myself, and the whole entire family on this one. This time, it wasn't your fault."
I figured now was a good time to wake up, considering the long pause between the two of them. I slowly opened my eyes to see the bright florescent light hanging above me. When I blinked, the light was gone, now covered up by two pairs of golden eyes staring down at me. And one of those pairs are one's that I'd thought I'd never see again.

A\N: I'm in love with this chapter! My eyes got watery; at least I didn't cry. I hoped you liked it. It was really hard trying to put emotions into words, but I won't regret ever trying. I also hope that you liked the babies names I had chosen. Their both Italian I guess, at least a part.
Amadora: The gift of love (Italian)
Damon: I have no idea all I now is, I'm in love with a guy named Damon Salvatore who is an Italian vampire. Salvatore is savior in Italian. I will use it later on in the story. Very much later on I might add.
So the names are: Damon Edward Cullen and Ever Amadora Cullen. I think they're cute but hey, that's just me.
Anyway, you know what to do: REVIEW!!!! I will not give you anymore threats because the last one went badly. LOL. I don't know when I'll update again, considering I don't know what's about to happen next. But I will update as soon as I can. I update everyday now, don't I? Not most people do that. I love all my fans and reviewers, you are my rock, without you I would be nothing.
