Esme POV

Today was a peaceful day in Florida. (he he that's where I live). I had just picked Emmett and Rosalie up from preschool and the twins and Jasper from daycare. They were sitting in the on the floor in the living room eating goldfish.

"Auntie Esme" Jasper asked looking up at me.

"Yes buddy" I replied.

"I have go potty" he said.

"Come on" I chuckled leading him toward the bathroom. I waited outside the door for him to finish. I heard the toilet flush and a tiny" Auntie Esme". I walked into the bathroom to find Jasper staring up at the sink. He wasn't quite tall enough to wash his hands by himself.

I walked over to him smiling; I balanced him on my knee because he wanted to wash his hands by himself.

I brought him downstairs where the boys were playing with their semis and Alice and Rosalie were sitting in the corner in front of Alice's giant Barbie house. Both Alice and Rosalie were working on remodeling the house.

I sat on the couch and picked up my neglected book settling back against the cushions.

Carlisle wasn't due back from the hospital for another half hour and I was starting to get antsy. Carlisle had left early this morning so he could come home earlier, we were planning on taking Alice, Edward and Emmett to the state fair.

The shrill ringing of the phone made me jump slightly. I walked toward the kitchen and picked up the receiver.

"Hello."

"Yes is this Esme Cullen?" the voice on the line asked.

"Um yes, can I help you?" I replied hesitantly.

"This is St. Josephs Hospital" That was the same hospital Carlisle and Garrett worked at. "There has been an n accident. You were listed as the first contact for Kate and Garrett Hale."

My heart was pounding in my chest as my breathing quickened. "What happened?"

"They were hit head on by a drunk driver. I'm afraid it isn't looking to good. They have asked to speak with you, your husband is already here."

"I'll be right over." I sobbed quietly as I hung up the phone. I knew I had to be strong for the kids.

"Rosalie, Jasper can you come in here please?"

They shuffled in quietly alerted by the tone of my voice. "Come here baby" I muttered to Jasper as I took a seat on one of the chairs in the kitchen.

He climbed into my lap and I wrapped my arms around him. Noticing Rosalie and Jasper's absence Edward, Emmett and Alice all came into the kitchen. "What wrong?" Jasper and Alice asked at the same time.

"Look" I took a deep breath "there's been an accident" I turned my attention to jasper and pulled Rosalie into my side. "Mommy and Daddy are at the hospital."

"Daddy is always at the hospital" Rosalie whispered.

"No, Daddy is in the hospital, he got hurt."

"Why him is hurt?" Jasper asked.

"There was a man on the road that wasn't paying attention and he hit Mommy and Daddy's car" I told them gently.

"They gonna be okay?" Rosalie asked tears brimming in her eyes.

"I don't know sweetheart. Do you wanna go visit them?"

"Yes" they all replied.

A few minutes later two very distraught 4 year olds, one confused 3 year old and then there were the babies of the group, Edward and Alice who weren't quite sure what was going on.

When we arrived at the hospital I unbuckled them from the backseat. I swung Alice into my arms and grabbed hold of Jaspers hand. Emmett took hold of Rosalie and Edwards hand and walked a few feet in front of us.

When we arrived at the nurse's desk she looked toward Rosalie and Jasper and gave a sad smile before whispering "down the hall to the left 186."

I opened the door to the hospital room to find Carlisle kneeling next to Garrett's bed, he was hooked up to tons of machines and I wasn't a doctor but I knew one of those machines was helping him breath.

Emmett immediately dropped Rosalie and Edwards hands and bolted towards his father.

I looked hesitantly over to Kate, she looked even worse that Garrett did. She had a long cut down the side of her face, she was covered in bruises but the heart monitor by her be was beeping steadily. I couldn't hold it in much longer, I let the tears run down my face.

Carlisle came over and picked up Rosalie who was now crying hysterically. "That's not my Mommy and Daddy" she kept repeating.

"Momma no be sad" Alice whispered.

"It's not good, they're going to have to let them go. They kept them long enough for Rosalie and Jasper to say goodbye" Carlisle whispered in my ear so the kids couldn't overhear.

"What's going to happen to Rose and Jasper?" I said holding tighter to the little hand clutched in my own.

"Let's not worry about that now."

"Okay"

"Rose, do you wanna say bye to Mommy?"

"Where is she gonna go?" she asked scared.

"Do you know where Heaven is?" Carlisle asked her gently.

"Yes. Momma said that's where Grandma went. But she told me not to cry because Grandma was happy."

"Well sweetheart, that's where Mommy and Daddy are gonna go." I said trying to explain it to her as easily as possible.

"But I never see again?" Jasper questioned, the tears in his eyes overflowing.

"No honey." I said quietly.

"I wanna say bye" Rosalie whispered as she wiggled out of Carlisle's arms. I handed Alice to Carlisle and picked Jasper up, I walked toward Kate and sat down in the chair beside her bed. I sat Jasper down on one leg and I scooped Rosalie up from where she was standing and planted her on the other.

Rosalie reached out hesitantly to grab Kate's hand but she stopped and pulled it back. "You can hold her hand if you want too" I told her.

"Well, um Mommy you weren't supposed to leave right now. And I'm going to miss you. A lot. But I love you Mommy, more than anything, and I promise im'a take care of Jasper cause he's my little brother. But" she stopped talking to wipe the tears out of her eyes. "I love you Mommy, don't ever forget that."

She turned her head and pushed it into my chest sobbing louder now.

"No crying sissy" Jasper whispered grabbing her into a big hug. "Mommy I love you" he whispered "I wish you could of stayed with me but you always say that im'a big boy so I'm not gonna cry cause I'm uppose to be strong for Rowsie. I love you."

I let them climb down from my lap and into Carlisle's who was sitting next to Garrett. I let my head fall into my hands and the tears ran down my face. I sobbed quietly before reaching for Kate's hand. "I'm not going to let them go anywhere. I'll watch over them." I told her "You were an amazing best friend."

"Aunt Kate and Uncle Garrett not comin back?" Emmett asked.

"No baby"

The opening of the door to the room startled me. I saw it was one of Carlisle's friends I had seen around the hospital. "It's time" he whispered.

I cried harder but took Edward and Alice's hands and slowly walked out of the room stealing one last glance at my former best friend.

I told the kids to sit in the waiting area and I pulled Carlisle over to where they couldn't hear. "What do we do about them?" I nodded to Rosalie and Jasper who were sitting on chairs in the waiting area.

"I've been getting things arranged since I heard; they can stay with us until the adoption papers are approved."

"Oh Carlisle" I said falling into his protective embrace.

"I figured that would be what you would want"

"Oh yes!"

"Let's go tell them."

"Where we gonna go? Who we gonna live with?" Rose asked.

"You and Jasper are going to live with us."

Rosalie smiled softly "okay."

I left Carlisle to go gather his stuff from his office and I took the kid's out to the car.

By the time we arrived back home it was well after 8:00. Carlisle said he was going to stop by Kate and Garrett's place to get a few pairs of clothes for Rosalie and Jasper. We would go over there tomorrow while they were at daycare to get the rest of their stuff.

Jasper slept in Edwards on his other bed room and Rosalie slept in Alice's bed.

"Goodnight baby" I whispered as I kissed both of their foreheads. I said goodnight to the boys although they weren't much for affection.

Carlisle and I went straight to bed, both emotionally exhausted.

A few hours later I heard our bedroom door open and a little hand was tugging on my shirt. I opened an eye to find Jasper a few inched from my face. "What's wrong?" I asked him.

"Bad dream" he whispered "scary monster."

"Come here" I said as he climbed on the bed and snuggled in between Carlisle and I. A few minutes later the door creaked open further and Rosalie and Alice peeked their heads in. "Bad dream?" I guessed. They both nodded their heads quickly.

"Come on up." I chuckled softly. Rose lay beside her brother but Alice climbed on top of me and snuggled into my arms.

Two more warm bodies woke me about an hour later. Emmett lay next to Rosalie, she snuggled into his chest. Edward woke Carlisle by climbing on top of him to sleep.

He looked over at me and I smiled softly. I turned over keeping Alice cradled against me as I softly ran my hand through Jaspers curls.

He sighed softly but never stirred.

Okay, PHEW that was a long chapter. Anyway please review.

I read these stories a while ago on ff like idk a year or so ago and I can't find them.

There's one that follows the Twilight plot but Bella has a little sister. And about breaking Dawn maybe after she gets leukemia. It's a really good story but I cant fid it so if you know the name or the author please let me know.

There's another where Edward and Bella are human and they get in a car accident and Bella loses her memory. In this story Alice was the one who got hurt by James and Jasper was Bella's doctor and Bella was the one driving when they got in the accident.

If you know either of these stories please let me know!!!!
