Sorry, this one is kind of short. I wanted to make sure I got something out before I left town. While I'm out of town I hope to be able to update but I'm not sure. If I can't update I'll make sure to have updates ready when I get back. I hope you enjoy.
She KNEW
Bella Pov-
Oh. My. God. Boy was I in trouble.
"Bella?" I heard questioned but before I could answer I was smashed into by that very same person who called my nam, "Bella!"
Kate threw her arms around me and gave me a hug which I returned with just as much vigor.
"Kate!" I exclaimed and we both raised a hand to the one another and with our fingers barely touching we turned on our electric skin and created a little lightning bolt. It was our common greeting to each other.
"Oh, Bella, I've missed you so much!" Kate told me, pulling me back into a hug. "I'm so glad you're finally back with them."
"Me too," I replied. Kate stepped slightly away from me so that she could see me. "You look so happy!"
"I am happy," I told her honestly.
"Well, we'll talk more later. I guess I can't hog you to myself right now," Kate told me and let me go so that I could go greet the rest of the Denalis but as I made my way to Tanya I heard my daughter yell and turned to see her running across the field towards us.
Edward Pov-
Elizabeth and I were playing baseball when I saw the Denalis emerge from the trees. I heard Alice thinking about them coming earliar today (A/N: Alice couldn't see the game so Edward only heard from her thoughts that they were coming he didn't see what would happen when they arrived.). As I watched them emerge I saw Kate run to Bella. I felt a low growl emit from me, before I could help it. Of course, Kate wouldn't harm Bella because Bella was with us, she was not some random vampire. Then things got strange. Kate attacked Bella in a hug and the two joyously greeted each other.
It's so good to see her. She looks so much better. Maybe she's back with Edward. I heard in Kate's thoughts. Kate KNEW. She KNEW everything. She KNEW I had a daughter. How?
I was becoming distracted but I was still playing catch with Elizabeth. Before I could go over to Bella and Kate to find out what was going on, I saw Elizabeth throw off her mitt and run towards Kate and Bella.
"AUNT KATIE!" my daughter screamed excitedly and she ran to Kate jumping into Kate's arms.
"Hey, munchkin! How've you been?" Kate asked my daughter.
I felt the wind fully knock out of me. What the hell was going on hear? I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT KATE KNEW AND DIDN'T TELL ME! I felt the anger surge through me and I ran at Kate. It took me less than a tenth of a second to notice my daughter had gone on to greet Tanya before I crouched down in front of Kate; a feral snarl resonating from me.
"You knew," I accused in a harsh voice.
"Edward," Kate said surprised but defensive, "You have to understand…"
"I don't have to understand anything! We call you family but you, kept my daughter and the love of my life from me!"
"Edward…" Kate started again, but I wouldn't listen.
"Really, Kate, what was so damn important that you had to KEEP my family from me!" I yelled, "You…"
"EDWARD ANTHONY MASEN CULLEN!" Bella yelled at me. Her voice was like a shock. I was still growling lowly but I had realized what I had done. I let the anger over take me. I began to regain composure and pinched the bridge of my nose. "YOU APOLOGIZE TO KATE THIS INSTANT! She is the one that saved me. Without her, neither your daughter nor I would be here and you need to treat her with respect. She is your cousin and you will NOT take your anger out on her!"
As Bella's words hit me I was slowly turned from anger to total regret. Kate had SAVED my family. Even if she didn't tell me about them she had still saved them.
"I'm so sorry Kate! Please forgive me!" I said with anguish in my voice. I can't believe what I had done to her.
"It's all right Edward. Just don't let it happen again," she soothed. Once the words were out of her mouth I pulled her into a tight hug.
"Thank you. Thank you for saving my family," I whispered reverently to her. I heard Bella walk over to us and I pulled away from Kate.
"Thank you Kate," I told her brightening up more and more.
"My pleasure, Edward," she told me, but before I could fully pull away from her I felt an electrical shock run through me and saw a mischievous smile light up Kate's face. "Oh, and Edward, next time you try and yell at me, you'll be frying!"
I hoped you liked the chapter.
