Edwards point of view
August 4, 8 months later.
Alice gave birth to Claire Addison Whitlock on January 14th. She was a tiny little thing. But so cute. She had to stay in the hosptital for a week because she was so late in birth, but there both perfectly fine now.
Bella and Sophie have been absolutely wonderful. They were my world and I couldnt live without them, ever.
During the early months of Sophies life, things were a little shaken up. But, Bella and I held through. I wrote Sophie a lullaby, it was sweet and delicate like her. Bella cried when she heard it.
At 6 months Sophie picked up a sleeping pattern. Going to bed at around 10:00 at night and waking up at 10 in the morning, it was kinda funny.
I think Bella and I only fought twice during the hard times.
The first time it ended up with both of us laughing our asses off rolling on the floor.
The second time... Ah. Yes, i remember the second time very well.
(Italics is his flashblack.)
Bella and I were sitting at the dinner table, in the middle of not talking to each other.
Bella was feeding Sophie and giggling as she made faces at the milk.
I cleaned my plate and went to bed early. As I was laying in bed I saw Bella walk across the hallway into Sophies room and to put her to bed.
"Goodnight, Sophie." I heard her sweet voice whisper. She turned off the lights in the hallway and came into the room, went into the bathroom and changed into a tank top and shorts.
When she got to her side of the bed she took off her pants and slid into bed in just her underwear and shirt. And god did she look sexy.
My back was facing her as I tried to get to sleep. But I couldnt, not without her in my arms.
10 minutes later I felt the bed shift and Bella leaned over my shoulder and kissed my cheek, with her soft pink lips.
"I Love you." She whispered. I guess she was waiting for a reply, but her bare legs were on mine and I was momentarily distracted.
I heard her sigh and move back to her side of the bed.
"Love you too, Bella." She mimicked my voice in a hiss.
I turned over and met her eyes, she closed them quickly and turned over so I couldn't see her face.
I wrapped my hands around her waist and tried to pull her to me but she wiggled free.
I grunted and flipped her over, I straddled her waist and pinned her arms above her head. She tried to get up but, I let her hands go and placed my hands on her bare thighs and held her to the bed.
"You know I love you more than anything in the world." I growled. She rolled her eyes.
"Do you?"
"Do you even have to ask?" I whispered as my nose skimmed her jawline. Her breathing sped up.
"No." She breathed.
"Do you love me?" I asked and kissed her neck.
She rolled so she was on top of me, straddling my torso, a knee on each side of my chest. The blankets were on the floor so now she was only in a t shirt and underwear on top of me. I gulped rather loudly. She pinned my arms above my head, I could easily brake her hold, but right now I liked it.
She smirked and dipped down placing a long lingering kiss on my chest.
"More than anything." She whispered and let my hands go. She ran her small warm hands up my waist and to my chest. Up the back of my neck, she yanked my neck up forward and kissed me hard...
Yeah, you can probably take a wild guess at what we did to end that fight. I smiled remembering that night. One word. WOW.
I dont even remember what we were arguing about.
By six months Sophie could sit up by herself. Today she is still trying to get the whole crawling thing under control.
She has Bellas beautiful wavy brown hair- that was already down to her jaw-, my green eyes, and for facial features she looked like both of us. She was absolutely beautiful. Just like her mother.
I smelled something delicious from the kitchen, speaking of Bella.
I walked in there and wrapped my arms around her tiny waist. Bella was paranoid that I wouldnt like her after birth because she would still have baby fat. I told her that was ludicrous. But she still went running around the neighborhood with Rose and Alice every morning before Sophie would wake up.
Bella, looked better, sexier, and more beautiful than ever. I didnt deserve her at all.
I know Bella, and she would scold me for thinking thoughts like this.
"What are you making?" I asked eyeing the pan on the stove filled with chicken and sauce.
"Chicken fettucini." She smiled. I kissed her neck and she turned around in my arms.
I pressed my lips to hers hard. She jumped and wrapped her legs around my waist. I carried her over to the counter and kissed her passionatly.
Her hands were threading through my hair, mine were under her shirt all over her back and torso.
"Dinners going to burn." She breathed.
"I dont care." I said and pulled her closer, crushing my lips to hers.
"You'll care when this place is in ashes on the ground." She whispered and broke out into a fit of cute giggles when I pouted and let her go.
"K, its done." She laughed and set it on the table. I put the plates and silverware on and made me and Bella both a plate while she went to grab Sophie from her playpin.
"Your just hyper arent you?" Bella giggled as Sophie squirmed around in her seat waiting for her baby food. Bella placed a thing of applesauce in front of her and laughed at Sophie grabbing at it.
She fed Sophie half of the little thing of applesauce and started eating.
Bella went to reach for her drink and Sophie copied her.
As Bella set her glass down Sophie mimicked. Bella looked at her through the corner of her eye.
She slowly grabbed her glass and Sophie did the same with her bottle of juice. Bella took a sip as did Sophie.
Slowly Bella placed her glass back down and Sophie followed.
Bella looked at me smirking. I was shaking with silent laughter. I layed back in my chair, face red chuckling until I was out of breath.
Bella ran a hand through her wavy hair and giggled. They both looked so beautiful together giggling at each other. My world. Both of them were my world, my life. I never thought I could love someone or something so much.
"Mommy is so silly aint she?" I asked Sophie.
Sophie looked at me and grinned.
"Love, whats in her mouth?" I asked and moved to sit next to her. Bella stuck her finger in Sophies mouth and felt the two little white spots on Sophies gums.
"Aw, lookie someones cutting teeth." Bella smiled.
I smiled and kissed Sophies and Bellas head and took the dishes into the kitchen.
"So what can I do?" I asked as Bella took Sophie out of her high chair.
"You can either wash the dishes or change Sophie." She smirked.
"Which one is more work." She looked at me confused.
"Washing dishes I suppose."
"Good, now go change her." I smacked her butt as she walked upstairs with Sophie. She turned around and winked at me.
"Daddys just chicken, he doesnt want to smell you. But be proud you still dont smell as bad as Uncle Emmett." I barked out a laugh at Bella. She giggled and continued to go upstairs.
I finished the dishes and Bella carried Sophie back downstairs with a pained look on her face.
"How can something so tiny do something so-" She shook her head and placed Sophie on the floor to watch her try to crawl agian.
Bella layed on the floor and cheered Sophie on as she tried to crawl.
"Come on baby." She whispered and held her hands out to Sophie to crawl to her. I sat beside her and wrapped my hands around her small stomach. I placed her on her knees and she moved her arms and legs along the carpet. Halfway to Bella I let go and she finished the rest of the way.
Bellas smile was absolutely dazzling as she picked Sophie up and kissed her cheek.
"Now try to crawl back to daddy." She smiled and set her back on her knees and hands. She was wearing a white long sleeve onsie that said Sweet Pea. Half her hair was in a pony tail sticking straight up. I laughed when she came out with that hairstyle. But it was so damn cute that I had to.
Sophie started moving slowly, then about a foot away her arm stumbled but I quickly picked her up before her little face hit the carpet.
"Aw, you'll get it." I said and kissed her head she layed her head on me. Bella came over and layed her head on my shoulder, playing with Sophies hair.
"She looks just like you." We both said in unision. I looked at her and scoffed.
"Whatever she looks just like you." Bella said.
"Love, she looks exactly like you." I argued.
"Absolutely beautiful." I added. Bella kissed my cheek and smiled. She still had a tint of red on her cheeks from my compliment.
I picked Sophie up and set her in her playpin. I layed on the couch and pulled Bella on top of me. She cuddled into my chest and smiled.
"I love you." I whispered.
"I love you too." She kissed my lips sweetly, but it turned a little more heated.
My hands were on her hips as she straddled my waist.
"PDA!" A booming voice yelled. Bella groaned. Emmett.
"Gross." He said and picked up Sophie out of her playpin and held her.
"How the hell does he get in here?" I asked.
"I dont know." Bella whined and laid her forehead on my chest, dry sobbing. I rubbed her back and chuckled.
Jasper came in shortly and they both sat around our living room. Bella was stabbing them over and over again with her eyes.
"Dude, Jazz she looks like Bella and Edward morphed together!" Emmett said in awe at Sophie. Jasper slapped his hand to his forehead. I sighed and Bella growled, actually growled at him.
"Cause she is you dumbass!" She started laughing her butt off after that.
"Go away." Bella laughed.
"Uh, why?" He whined.
"I want alone time." Bella smirked and winked at me.
"Yeah, go. And dont you have two of your own kids?" I asked anxious.
"Bunch of little bastards." Emmett sighed then laughed.
"Emmett!" Bella scolded them burst out laughing. Jasper and I were shaking with laughter in our seats.
"What?! Thats there nicknames. I love them, little bastards."
"What the hell?" Bella whispered laughing. I shook my head in shame at them.
"And Jasper shouldnt you be helping Alice?" My Bella asked unpatiently.
"Yeah, i should be. Emmett said there was an emergency so I had to come over here. But apparantly hes just an idiot. See yall tomorrow." He smiled, waved, and walked out.
"Bye!" We called in unision. Bella checked the time and it was 9:50.
I looked over at Sophie with her. Her mouth formed a tiny 'O' as she yawned.
"Somebodys tired." I chuckled. Bella scooped her up in her arms and walked upstairs not without swinging her hips and winking at me.
"Emmett go home." I said staring at Bella as she retreated upstairs. I heard her giggle softly.
"But-"
"Home." I said and pointed to the door.
"KK. I get it you need 'alone time'. See ya later Eddo." He walked out very slowly and I threw a pillow at him.
"Bye." He called. I picked up the pillow, and quickly straightened up downstairs and turned off the lights. I walked upstairs turning lights off on the way. I peeked in Sophies room and Bella was holding rocking her in the wooden rocking chair by the window.
The bright moonlight shining on Bellas ivory skin and mahongany hair made me gasp at how stunningly heart brakingly beautiful she was.
I heard her softly humming the Sophies lullaby to her as she slept in her arms. She looked up and smiled gorgeously at me.
She placed Sophie gently in her crib and walked over to me. I pulled her arms so they were around my neck, and mine were around her waist playing with the hem of her shirt.
We kissed the whole while we backed into our room.
"Alone time?" I whispered.
"Alone time." She breathed an knodded taking off my shirt.
Aw. See Sophie is sooo cute. I thought the whole father daughter thing is cute between Edward and Sophie!
I know its been awhile, but school starts in a few days so...
Review! They make me very very happy! Reviews mean faster updates...
