Two months later (July 8)
I woke up, my head was pounding and I could feel a large warm hand covering mine. I turned to the side and saw Emmett, "Hey," I said my voice scratchy. "Hey Rosie, I'm glad to see you're awake. We were really worried about you."
"Where am I Em?" I asked looking around the white room. "You don't remember? You were in an accident right after you left the court house, it turns out Royce had hired someone to insure you wouldn't be able to 'take his child from him'. But don't worry the police were able to catch him. We filed a restraining order and several other things against him. He won't be bothering you or Isolde ever again. Esme has been taking care of Isolde for you."
"Em thank you, for everything." He smiled at me, "Of course Rosie, no problem." Emmett hit a button beside my bed and a doctor walked in followed by a nurse. He left for a few minutes while the doctor looked me over and asked me some questions. Once they left Emmett walked in carrying Isolde, she had gotten bigger in the past two months, I was sad I had missed all that time. He handed her to me and she just relaxed in my arms, listening to my heart beat.
July 14th
God I could kill Jasper's boss, and Ali's crazy time predictions. I was in the hospital room next to Ali, rubbing her back while she squeezed my hand, "Its ok Ali I promise, everything's going to be just fine. I called Jazz he should be here soon, he got the earliest flight out and Edward was going to the airport to pick him up."
Alice just focused on her breathing, she told me there was nothing to worry about, Jasper will be here before the babies arrived, (apparently no one knew the sexes of either baby, Alice and Jasper decided on it being a surprise for everyone) and he would be able to watch as his children were born.
After about an hour Jasper arrived and I was escorted out of the room to wait with Bella, Emmett, Edward, and Isolde, who had been watched by Emmett while I was taking care of Ali. Emmett had been trying really hard to keep to his word of fighting to win me back. Trust me it was much easier than he would have liked but he was always there when I needed him. I couldn't believe so much time had gone by had it really been a year since everything had changed. I was now a mother to a beautiful four month old baby girl, Ali was about to give birth to twins, I had gotten divorced and fallen in love, I went from losing my best friends to gaining some new ones, then regaining my old friends, and finally getting rid of my ex-husband once and for all.
I smiled as I looked down at Isolde, she looked like Emmett, she shared his hair and dimples, and the rest of her was all me. I was glad she looked nothing like Royce, she was all mine. I found myself silently thanking Royce for giving me the one thing that meant the most to me in the world, even though he never meant to and tried taking her from me; if it hadn't been for him I never would have had her.
A few hours later Jasper emerged from the delivery room, a huge smile on his face. "Would everyone like to meet the newest members of the Whitlock clan?" Everyone spoke at once, Jasper held up his hand to silence the noise, "just follow me."
Emmett turned and looked at me as we got up to follow Jasper, "Would you look at that, its July fourteenth, Ali was right." I laughed as we walked side by side, following Bella Edward and Jasper. I held Emmett's hand as we walked Isolde, strapped into her carrier, in my other hand.
We walked down the hallways of the maternity ward, stopping right at the window. Jasper tapped on the glass and a nurse turned around smiling, he pointed to two bassinets on the far end of the room. The nurse nodded and pushed them closer to the window, one was wrapped in blue, the other in pink. "Everyone meet Ian Elliot and Caroline Rachelle Whitlock."
