Thanks so much for all the reviews you guy's rock!
Anyone guess what today is? It's Halloween and I'm dressing up, Edward decided that it would be funny to paint my stomach like a pumpkin. We were actually going out and trick or treating. I used to love going when I was little. Renée used to take me out all the time and afterward we would just sit, eat candy, and watch scary movies till morning. Just thinking of Renée made my heart drop. I haven't seen her or Charlie since the wedding and I missed them terribly. Edward and I haven't talked about it yet but I think that they have a right to know that they have a grand daughter on the way. I know it could be dangerous but I know I would be upset of they didn't tell me something like that. I sighed and rolled over in bed to face Edward. His hand was still on my stomach still rubbing soothing circles on it. Our daughter would not stop kicking last night and I could not get comfortable. So Edward tried to calm her down.
"Did she finally stop kicking?" Edward asked as he kissed my lips.
"Yes and I finally got some sleep" I smiled at him
"You know what today is right?"
"Yes it's Halloween… and about that I want to talk to you about something"
"Okay hold that thought I need to have a shower and then we can talk"
"Okay I'll be here" I said
He smirked at me and walked back into the bathroom. I lay back down in bed and covered myself in the blankets. I kept wondering on how I was going to break the news to Edward. I didn't know if he would agree with me or not, but I was hoping he would at least consider it. I closed my eyes and let my mind wonder.
"She's beautiful" Edward smiled at me "You did so good, I'm so proud of you"
I looked down in my arms and saw the most beautiful baby girl in my arms. I was about to open my mouth when Edward froze.
"What's wrong?" I asked him
Before he could answer me the door burst open and Aro, Jane, And Felix all entered the room. I gasped and pulled my baby closer to me, desperate to protect her. They all stepped closer and I noticed that Edward wasn't even trying to stop them or protect us he just stood there. I wasn't strong enough and they took my baby away from me.
"Stop what are you doing she's just a baby" I cried
"I'm sorry Bella it has to be done, she a danger to us all" Aro said
With one last scream of terror Aro sunk his teeth into my baby's neck.
I woke up screaming and crying on hysterics. Edward rushed out of the bathroom in his towel and ran over to me.
"Bella what's wrong? Why were you screaming?" he panicked
"I…the baby… and you" I stuttered
Edward pulled me into his arms and rocked me back in forth. I cried into his shoulder and clung onto him for dear life.
"Bella Shh it's okay, calm down" he pleaded
I took a deep breath to try and calm myself.
"There, now tell me what happened" he said stoking my cheek.
"Ok well I had a dream I you and I were looking at our daughter and she was so beautiful Edward. Then the Volturi came and took her from me. They killed her Edward and you just stood there. You didn't even try to stop them or protect her, you let them kill her" I cried
"Bella look at me. She's safe and the Volturi will not take her. It was just a dream I will always protect you and our family no matter what"
"It was just a dream" I repeated
"Yes it was" he assured me
"Okay change of subject I have something to ask you" I sat up on my knees and eyed him
"Shoot" he smiled
"Well I was just remembering of how Renée used to take me trick or treating and how we would watch scary movies. We'll I miss Renée and Charlie and thought maybe we should tell them"
"Bella you know why we can't do that…'
"I know I just thought that maybe you could think about it. I just think that they have a right to know their grand daughter Edward" I said climbing onto his lap that was still wrapped in a towel.
"I see your point Bella. I'll tell you what, I'll think about it but in the mean time I think we can do something about the candy and movies"
"Really?"
"Yes now let me get dressed" he laughed and lifted me off him to get dressed.
He didn't bother going into the other room and just got changed in the bedroom. All of a sudden my stomach started rumbling.
"Edward I'm going to get some breakfast" I said getting up to leave
"I'll get it" he said
"I can get it Edward I'm not invalid" I scolded
He laughed and gave up. I walked slowly down the stairs and into the kitchen. I pulled out a bowl from the cabinet and poured some cereal and milk in it. I walked into the Living room and sat on the couch. Emmett and Rosalie were also in the Living room cuddled up on the couch.
Happy Halloween Bella" Emmett said
"Hey guys Edward and I are going to watch scary movies, you guys in?" I asked them
"Hell yeah. You won't be scared though will you?" Emmett asked
"I'll be fine" I hoped
Edward came down and took the spot next me. Everyone crowded into the room and placed themselves in a spot. I was sitting in between Edward and Emmett and I snuggled into Edward closer. Alice pooped in the DVD and took her spot next to Jasper. Once the title of the movie came up Emmett laughed.
"Seriously Alice we're watching 'Halloween'" he scoffed
"Yes we are" she snapped
As the movie continued on I was actually surprised that I wasn't that scared. I mean I would jump every once in a while but I wasn't terrified. Once the movie was over Jasper turned toward me with a smile.
"Wow Bella you we hardly scared" he said
"Okay guys no that we watched the movie we have to go and get ready" Alice yelled at us.
"Fine" Edward said as he helped lift me from the couch "See you guys out there"
We walked up into our bedroom and I lifted my shirt up as Edward opened the bottles of paint. I sat on the chair so my back was resting against the back. Edward dipped the brush into the bottle and painted my whole stomach orange. It ticked really badly and I couldn't help but laugh. Edward looked up at me and smiled.
"Does it tickle?" he asked sarcastically
"Yes" I giggled
He continued with the orange and moved onto the green stem at the top. Then he painted a random face on the pumpkin that was now taking shape on my belly.
"What's with the face?" I asked
"It's cute" he said
He cleaned the brushed off before helping me out of the chair. I walked over to the mirror and smiled. It did look really cute and I was getting really big. (Picture on profile) Edward came back with an orange shirt and helped place it on me so it rested just above my stomach. He then got the camera and took dozens of pictures.
"What a great idea I had huh?" he said
"Yeah but I'm going to have issues getting all this paint off"
"Don't worry it will come right off on the shower" he promised
"Good"
"Are you ready to get going? Everyone else is outside waiting for us"
"Yep let's go" I grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the door.
Before we left Edward grabbed my black jacket for me to put on. It was a little chilly out and this jacket was warm and short enough that you could still see the pumpkin. After my jacket was on he led me out of the house. We decided that we weren't going to go far because A: it was cold. And B: I was 5 months pregnant and couldn't walk around for hours. Once we were outside everyone commented on how cute my stomach looked.
"Edward you didn't make it look scary at all" Alice complained
Alice was dressed as a cat (I don't know why) and everyone else thought it would be funny if they dressed as vampires.
"I know but it's cute" Edward whined
"Whatever" she said and walked over to grab my hand.
We only went to a couple houses. I mean I'm the only one who will actually eat the candy and we don't need 6 bags full.
Edward's POV
Bella looked so happy. I know that she misses her parents but I don't think that it's safe if they know. But then again they deserve to know that their daughter is going to have a daughter. Maybe I'll talk to Carlisle about it later, I know it would make her happy and that's all that matters. We'll deal with the consequences later. We were only at the 7th house and I could see that Bella was getting tired. I wanted her in bed and resting not trick or treating. I let them go ahead to the next house and I trailed behind. A lady opened the door and smiled down at Bella.
"Oh what a cute idea" she squealed looking at her stomach.
"Thanks" Bella smiled "It was my husband's idea"
"Oh how far along are you?" she asked
"About 5 months"
"Oh well here you go" she said as she placed a handful of candy in the bag and smiled once more before closing the door.
Bella walked back over to me and was leaning most of her weight against my side. I laughed and easily lifted her into my arms.
"Ok let's get you home" I stated; she just sighed and closed her eyes.
"Guys I'm taking Bella home" I announced to my family as I walked away
"Good night Bella" they all said at once
I walked into the house and was met by Carlisle and Esme sitting on the couch watching a movie.
"I'm going to go put her to bed and then I have to talk to you guys" I said
They just nodded and I continued up the stairs. I walked into the bathroom and started the tub. I sat Bella on the floor making sure she wouldn't topple over before I lifted her shirt over her head. I reached over and gently placed her in the tub so her back was resting against the tile. She stirred and opened her eyes a slit.
"Edward what are you doing?" she asked rubbing her eyes.
"Getting all the paint off. Go back to sleep"
She did and I grabbed the wash cloth and began to gently wash it over her stomach. It came right off so I didn't need to scrub that hard. After I got all the paint off I dressed her in a tank top and shorts. I carried her to bed and laid her down. Once I was sure she was peacefully sleeping I went down stairs to talk to Carlisle and Esme.
"What do you need Edward?" Carlisle asked
"Bella misses Charlie and Renée and she wants to tell them" I said
"Edward it could be dangerous" Carlisle warned
"I know and I told her that but she does have a point. I mean don't you think they would want to know that they have a grand daughter on the way" I reasoned
"Yes you right but what they don't know won't hurt them" he said
"But it would hurt Bella and that would hurt me. I mean she's still human and as far as we know the baby's more human than vampire. So I really see no harm"
I looked into Carlisle's thoughts to see what he was thinking but he was blocking his thoughts from me. He was about to say something when the door burst opened and my siblings walked in. They threw the candy on the table and walked over to us.
"Wow what a night. I got a crap load of candy" Emmett yelled
"Emmett shut up Bella's sleeping" I hissed
He shut up and I listened to make sure Bella did not wake. She stirred but her breathing was still slow and heavy, indicating that she was still asleep.
"Sorry bro. Come on Rose let's bring this party upstairs" He said as he grabbed Rosalie's hand leading her upstairs
"Don't wake her" I pleaded
"No worries"
"I'll keep ear out. I'm going to go and work on the nursery" Alice winked at me dragging Jasper upstairs behind her.
I nodded at her and turned back to face Carlisle. He was still blocking his thoughts from me and I was getting impatient.
"Edward if it really means that much to you then I guess we can tell them. We just have to be careful about it"
"Thank you Carlisle I know Bella will be happy" I said
"I know she will. Just be careful"
"I will. I'll give them a call tomorrow" I said walking up the steps to spend the night next to my love.
