Things were going by so fast! The twins birthdays were tomorrow and Alice and I had planned on having a small little party, if you could call it that, at the condo that Jasper and her shared. We invited Edward, Bella, and Nessie Cullen, Emmett's boss and his family, and a few of Emmett's friends from his work. This would also be the first time the twin's would go swimming, I mean it's still FREEZING here in Connecticut, but in the condo that they lived in, they had an indoor pool on the first level.
"Momma!" Liam giggled and clapped his hands when I walked into the living room where he was sitting with his daddy. Lilly and I had a girl's day out and went shopping so she was propped up on my hip.
"Dadda!" Lilly giggled and clapped her hands as we walked in.
"Mommy!" Emmett smiled and clapped his hands as I shut the door.
"Daddy!" I laughed and sat down next to him.
We exchanged a quick kiss-, which caused the twins to giggle – and traded babies. "So how was your girl's day?" Emmett smiled as he handed me Lilly and pulled me into his lap.
"Good. How was your guys day?" I smiled and watched in amazement, as usual, as Lilly played with Liam.
"Good. We hung out, watched the game, had a few beers." Em smiled.
I gasped at Liam. "Liam! You bad boy!"
He giggled and looked at Emmett. "Dadda!"
"I know Dadda had some beers." I said in a mocking tone as I set them on the floor to play.
"Maybe a few." Emmett said against my neck. "But I was thinking of you."
I laughed. "Emmett, I think we should have another one."
"A beer? I think we're out…"
"No… a baby…."
"Rosie…." He looked at me, a little shocked.
"Sorry… I just…. Love them." I sighed, still looking at him.
"I would love too." Emmett smiled and kissed me.
"Okay!" I smiled.
Liam started crying and started flalling his arms in the air. Lilly looked at him like he was crazy.
"Okayy. Bedtime. You guys got a big day tomorrow." I said, getting up. Emmett and I gave them a bath, put them in their pajamas and put them into their cribs.
"I have a surprise for you." Emmett smiled when I emerged from the bathroom. I was wearing my favorite white nightgown and my blonde hair rested peacefully on my almost bare shoulders.
"Emmett…. Not tonight." I said. Tomorrow was going to be a long day and if we were going to let them go swimming, we both had to be alert, even if they had swimmies on.
He chuckled. "Not that." He grabbed my hand and we walked out. Jasper and Alice were sitting on the sofa, cuddled up.
"Don't be out long, kids." Jasper smirked as we walked out.
"Emmett, where are you taking me?" I asked as he tied a ribbon around my eyes and scooped me up.
"You'll see." I heard the smile in his voice. He sat me down in the passenger seat of the wrangler and shut the door. I heard him get in, shut the door, and start the car. "Don't worry, baby."
"I'm not. If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't have had twins with you." I smiled as I felt the car start moving.
He laughed and about a half hour later, I heard him pull the key out of the ignition and jump out. "Close your eyes princess."
"Emmy bear, I can't see regardless." I laughed as he helped me out of the jeep. I felt warm sand underneath my feet as we walked and heard the waves crashing against the shore, at least that's what it sounded like. I smelled the salt water and figured we were on the beach. Emmett led me from behind, maneuvering me with my hips.
"Ready?" he asked and I felt his cool fingers on my hair right by the tie.
"Yes!" I smiled. How far did he go this time to surprise me with his romantic side?
"Are you suuure?" he teased.
"Yes!" I laughed as he untied the ribbon that guarded my eyes from vision. As I suspected, we were on the beach. There was a dude standing right by the shoreline smiling at us.
"Babe, I thought… we could… get married…." He smiled.
"How did you know?" I looked at him, tears stinging my eyes. Alice and I had talked about my wedding and I didn't hesitate to tell her that I would love to have it on the beach.
"I overheard you and Alice talking." He smiled and whipped away the few tears that escaped from my eyes. "Sooooo…." He got down on one knee. "Rosalie Hale, will you marry me, right here, right now?"
"Of course!" I smiled and leaned down to kiss him. He got up and we walked over to the dude. Only when we got up to him did I recognize him…. My father.
"Rosalie, I know you may not want to see me right now, but I just wanted to see you two get married, nonetheless marry you two. I am your father after all and I love you with everything I have, just like Emmett." My father said. "And if it's okay with you, be apart of my grandchildrens' lives."
I thought it over for a second. All he really did when I told them that I had a bun in the oven was stare at me in shock. "Fine." We exchanged a quick hug and then our vows.
"Rosalie, Rosie." Emmett began. "Since the first day I saw you in class I knew you had to be mine. You are the best thing that has even happened to me and I would do anything for you. I love you with everything I have. We have two beautiful children together and I love them more then life itself. I promise to love you and stay faithful to you until eternity is over… actually longer than eternity. You and Liam and Lilly have become my only reasons to stay alive. I love you."
I whipped my tears away and made some up. "Emmett, Emmy bear. I love you so much and I also love when you get jealous when guys look at me." We both smiled. "Liam and Lilly have the most amazing father in the world and I couldn't ask for a better man. I love you forever and ever."
We gave each other rings that Emmett had stashed away on his pocket.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife. I would say, "Kiss the Bride", but I know you will anyway." My father smiled.
Emmett pulled me into his arms and kissed me. Only when we finally pulled away did I notice my brother holding a camcorder.
"Hey Landon." I smiled and gave him a quick hug.
"Hey sis." He smiled. "So when do I get to meet my niece and nephew?"
"Tomorrow. At their first birthday party." I smiled. After I gave them the address, Emmett and I went home to our 'honeymoon'.
"See you guys tomorrow." Emmett smiled at Jasper and Alice when we walked in. they looked like they hadn't moved a muscle.
"Okay." Alice smiled, gave me a quick hug, and walked out.
"Let the honeymoon begin." Emmett smiled, shutting the door behind them.
