Edward's POV

I finish packing the last of my clothes. I've got most of my stuff in the car and ready to go. My family, Bella and Masen are all meeting at the airport and we're getting on the same plane. I arrive at the airport about an hour later. My heart stutters as I see Bella laughing along with my family. I walk over slowly and my mom rushes forward to hug me. After I greet my family, I turn to Bella.

"It's uh, it's good to see you." I say awkwardly. Bella nods.

"Good to see you too." She smiles slightly. I see Masen trying to stick a piece of Bella's hair in his mouth. We all decide to head to the TSA checkpoint. I'm the last one to go with Bella right in front of me. She hands them her plane ticket, the person cooing at Masen the whole time. When Bella gets up to the guard, she hands him a piece of paper.

"If the alarm goes off we're going to have to do an extra security check ma'am. I'm sorry but there's no way around that." I see Bella roll her eyes and walk through the scanner with Masen. The machine beeps and Bella sighs. I make my way through it just as they're asking Bella to remove Masen's hearing aids.

"Why do they need to be removed? You can see they're in there." Bella points out. I can see the guard getting flustered. When Bella sees they're not going to let up, she carefully removes Masen's hearing aids. He immediately starts crying and Bella tries to get him to calm down. The guard hands them back to Bella and she walks away. She sits Masen on a bench and asks Emmett to keep a hand on his back. She puts the hearing aids back in Masen's ears while he's screaming. Bella picks him back up and holds him so his face is by her neck. One hand is on his but and she's rubbing his back with the other. Soon enough his crying stops and we all notice he's fallen asleep.

We get to our terminal and sit down. We have another hour before our flight gets here so we just talk while we wait. I find my eyes constantly straying to Bella. She's holding Masen across her lap while he sleeps. Her one hand plays with Masen's dark hair. Fifteen minutes until we board, Bella puts on one of those baby carriers that straps on to your chest. My dad helps her get Masen into it. The flight is a long one, luckily Masen stays asleep for most of it. Six hours later we land in Florida.

The first day is mainly spent unpacking and catching up on sleep. The next day we find ourselves on the beach. Emmett and my dad immediately get into the water. Rose starts tanning. My mom sits under an umbrella and reads a book. Bella has an inflatable swimming pool with a little overhead over on it. She uses a bucket to put some of the saltwater in it and then she puts Masen in it. It's strange though because she sets this little seat up in it that keeps him upright.

"What's the seat for?" I ask her.

"He can't really sit up by himself yet. Only for a few minutes at a time. I don't want him to fall forward and hurt himself." Bella explains. She puts a few toys in for him and then lays in the sun by the little pool. I notice Masen doesn't have his hearing aids in. Bella notices me staring and sighs. "He can't get them wet. It could ruin the hearing aid." I feel awkward so I go and swim with my father and brother.

Half an hour later, I notice Bella pulling Masen out of the pool and putting him in the sand. He grabs fistfuls of it and giggles. My mom takes tons of pictures. I feel my heart ache in my chest. For the first time, I find myself regretting giving him up. I could be over there playing with him. I could be taking pictures and showing them off to everyone. I should be over there, telling Bella how much I love her. Being a family with her and Masen. I had to go and fuck up what was the best thing that ever happened to me.

Around three we all head back inside. My dad suggests we all go out to a restaurant. We all head to our rooms to change out of our bathing suits and to shower. We aren't in a rush so I go and shower. The bathroom is right across the hall from my room so I just wrap a towel around my waist and head out. As soon as I exit the bathroom, I collide with another warm body and my towel slips off. Bella and I stand there, too shocked to move. I notice her eyes trail down my chest. My dick twitches and her breathing hitches.

"I-Uh, I'm sorry. I just…." She pushes past me and into her room. I wrap my towel around my waist and sit on my bed. Bella hasn't seen me naked since before Masen was born. Just the thought of her seeing me naked makes me hard as a rock. A groan realizing that I can't go out with a hard on and I've never been able to just get rid of them when Bella is concerned. After taking care of myself and getting dressed, I head downstairs. We're getting ready to head out when Emmett asks about who is riding with who. He wants to try and conserve so he volunteers himself and Rose to ride with Mom and Dad. Therefore, putting Bella and Masen in my car. I don't argue and neither does Bella. She installs the car seat and gets in the passenger side.

The ride to the restaurant is long and filled with awkward silence. It feels like hours later when we finally pull up to the steakhouse. Bella gets Masen out of the car seat and carries him in on her hip. We get a high chair for Masen but Bella keeps a hand on him most of the time. I remember her telling me earlier how he can't sit up on his own for very long. I sigh sadly knowing that because of my actions, I've made life harder not only for Masen but for Bella as well. I'm so in love with her and this trip, it's making me see what I've missed.
