"I really need to…" The anxiety in my chest and stomach had me fidgeting in my chair, causing the woman working on my left hand to smile wryly at me.
"You really need to sit your happy ass down and relax," Rose's voice came from my left. I glared at her though she couldn't see me through the cucumbers over her eyes she still flipped me off with her newly painted hot pink nails.
"Really Bella, you need this." I looked over to Alice who also had cucumbers over her eyes.
"What I need is to be with my children." I spat as I pulled my feet from the sudsy water and tried to stand up.
"What you need to do is sit back down," the technician working on my nails said as she smiled sweetly at me and mouthed her apologies. I found out over the last hour that she had been given a very large tip to make sure that I stayed through my whole mani/pedi and facial.
Never knew the cost of a babysitter was so steep.
Hell woman, I would have strapped your ass to the chair if I was offered a hundred let alone the cool grand Alice and Rose had handed her.
"Edward and Emmett are with the kids, along with a staff of well-trained medical personal." Brandy said as she placed her hand on my arm trying to reassure me. And let me tell you, it wasn't working very well.
"But what if Zoey gets hungry or Zach has one of his blowouts? And I forgot to tell them about the butt balm..."
"Jesus Christ Bella, you act like they've never dealt with a baby before. Take a chill pill…" I glared over at Rose and saw her raise her brow and smirk. "Isn't that part of the package Alice, a nice assortment of Xanax or something?"
"Can be with the right amount of incentive, I'm sure." Alice winked at me as I turned my glare to her and huffed.
"Come on Bells." I jumped as I unexpectedly felt Rose's hand on my shoulder. "You have been living in that NICU for the last six weeks; you need to take a little Bella time and relax."
"I can relax when my children are home where they belong," I spat out angerly as I shrugged my shoulder to get her hand off me.
"Bella, you have been sleeping in that God awful slider chair every night except for the one that Edward carried your passed-out ass home." Alice interjected with a flip of her hair.
"Oh and did that boy ever get shit for that one the next morning," Brandy chuckled as she stood behind me and started to massage my shoulders.
"Oh yeah, I heard about that one from Emmett!" Rose laughed as she sat back down to finish her pedicure. "Poor Edward, Emmett swore that something was wrong with one of the gummies when he saw that look on Edwards face."
"Poor Edward?" I huffed, "What about Poor Zach or Zoey? You know, the ones that woke up with no mommy or daddy there to comfort them." I knew they all rolled their eyes, I swear I could hear it, but they just didn't understand that my babies were stuck in little tiny beds in a cold hospital room. I needed to be there with them at all times.
"Bella, you really have no choice. The Doc more or less eighty-sixed your ass out of the hospital for the next four hours; you should be taking advantage of it."
"Yeah, we still have a whole new wardrobe to get you," Alice chirped from her spot.
I had to physically repress my shudder at the thought of yet another change of wardrobe, but I couldn't suppress my groan. "Alice, you just gave me a whole new wardrobe a few months ago and then again when I looked like a house. I think I'm good in the clothing department, thanks."
The horror on Alice's face would have been priceless if I knew that I wasn't about to get my ass ripped open. "Have you not looked at yourself in the last six weeks?" She asked as she waved her hand up and down over my body.
I merely shrugged as I took in the sight of my disheveled and rumpled clothing. "Purple velour workout pants; check. Matching jacket; check. And one of Edwards white undershirts to make it complete; looks about right to me."
"I know," she scoffed, looking at my choice of clothing with derision, "You're lucky I love you enough to be seen with you in that."
"Alice, this is one of your designs." I reminded her.
"Yeah, like from three seasons ago." She rolled her eyes once again. It was so extreme that I swear they really were gonna get stuck up there one of these days. "Girl, thanks to those beautiful babies of yours your body is rockin' way more than it ever was before, and now it's time to show off them new curves." I looked around to my friends to see all three of them nodding in agreement.
"Fine," I huffed and threw my arms into the air in surrender. "I give up, Bella Barbie me up, but I will be back at the hospital before my four hours is up." I said the last part sternly, leaving no room for discussion from my friends.

"Alice, why the hell do I need a dress?" I sighed as she tossed the deep blue dress over the door of my fitting room. And yes it is mine; after over an hour of being locked inside this cramped little space I now have squatting rights. I own this bitch.
"You never know when you are going to need to dress up Bella," she sang out gaily as yet another blue dress flew over the top and landed on my head. I held up both and sighed yet again.
"If I just say yes to both, can we go?" I begged knowing full well I was not going to get away with it.
"NO! I have to see them on you." Her protest was accompanied by a very suspicious thumping sound.
"Did you just stomp your foot?" I barely covered my laugh as Brandy asked in full giggles.
"Shut up, you're next you know," Alice sing-songed yet again as another blue dress landed on top of me.
"I'm guessing we have a color theme today?" I asked as I slipped the first dress over my head. "This is so not going to work Alice; my boobs will spill out the minute I lean over." I tried hard to pull up the low V-neck line, but every tug upwards on the neckline brought a tug downward as well so that my panties couldn't be seen from the shortness of it. "And don't even think I'm going to walk around with my ass hanging out." I ripped the first dress off and tried on the other two, both offering the same show of skin as the first. "No, no, and no." I said as I tossed them back over the door.
"Belllllllaaaa, I need to see them." Alice whined as she banged on the door.
"Get me a dress that won't show off my tits and ass and I'll have no problem showing you." I spat as I opened the door and glared at the pixie.
"Baby, if you got them, flaunt them." She smiled saucily as she waved her hand around like Vanna White showing off my tits.
"Here Bella, try this one," Brandy said as she walked into the fitting rooms holding up a long sleek dress in the deepest blue I have ever seen.
"Oh, it's perfect!" Alice squealed as she jumped up and down clapping.
"Honestly you guys, do you think I'm going to the Grammys or something?" I asked as I shook my head and took the dress into my fitting room with me.
"Well you know, Rob did ask you to go, so did Jackson." Brandy sighed wistfully, then under her breath she whispered. "Lucky bitch."
"Yeah, 'cause I'm going to just fly my happy ass down to LA while my children are in the NICU." I said sarcastically. "They both know better than that, or at least I hope they do." I sighed as I slipped the dress down over my now larger hips. "It's a little snug." I said as I stepped out.
"Oh. My. God." Brandy and Alice gasped together.
"Oh Bella, you look so beautiful." I smiled at Brandy as she nodded her head as she looked the dress over once more.
"I love the bead work on the bodice, and the cut is just perfect for your new figure." Alice said in her 'Designer' voice as she walked around me in a circle. She clapped her hands twice and nodded. "It's perfect." Then she looked at Brandy and said, "You have learned well my young Padowan."
"Ok, I will admit, it is perfect, but for what? All I'm doing for the next few weeks is living in the NICU unit till my babies come home, and then I'm going to be the next 'Hermit of Seattle'. Can you really see me changing one of Zach's already famous blow-outs in this?"
"You never know Bella, you never know." I so hate it when Alice uses her know-it-all voice. "Now all we need are shoes; silver and strappy I'm thinking." She turned to Brandy. "What do you think young one?"

"This is my favorite part of the day." I sighed happily as I held my perfect sleeping daughter in my arms, looking over at Edward who was changing one of Zach's blowouts.
"Normally, I would say the same," Edward gasped. I snickered as I watched him turn his head to the side and take a deep breath before turning back and wiping up our little Poop Machine once again. "Where does it all come from?" he asked our son as he placed another tiny diaper on his little bottom.
"Just think of what it's going to be like when he starts eating solids." I laughed out as Zoey stretched in my arms. "A couple more days, little one, and you get to come home." I cooed to her as her little fingers wrapped around mine.
"I can't wait," Edward said as he sat into the slider next to mine.
"Has Felix said anything about Zach?" Emmett asked as he changed the blankets in Zach's bed.
"They have a few more tests to do," Edward explained as he took Zoey and placed Zach into my arms. "The good part is that we found out fast about his lactose intolerance while we were here, that would have been a fun one to deal with at home." I nodded as I took the bottle of soy based formula off the tray and started to feed my hungry little man.
"Mommy loves her little man." My words were a mere whisper as I pressed a gentle kiss to his downy brown curls.
"They're still worried about his hearing; he doesn't seem to react to anyone other than Bella's voice. They haven't decided if he is just stubborn or if it's going to be an ongoing problem."
"Don't worry baby, mommy knows it's just because you love her voice the best." I winked at Zach as he wrapped his tiny little fingers around my pinky and looked up toward my face.
"I may have to agree with you there," I looked up and frowned as the devil himself walked into the room with a bright smile on his face. "Come on now Isabella, it was good for both you and the twins."
"Bull," I said too sweetly with a forced smile on my face so not to upset my Gummies. The Devil, or Felix as he asked to be called. Dr. Felix LuFure is a 30-something year old pediatric doctor that has been working diligently to get my two little angels ready to come home. In all honestly, he was one of the best doctors that I have ever worked with, well other than Angela that is. My problem with him stems from the fact that he feels that I'm spending way too much time here; he even almost went as far as to have hospital security remove me from the grounds, and actually ordered me to take some time for myself.
"How are my two perfect little patients doing tonight?" he asked Edward and I swear I saw him wink.
What an ass, first the man forces me to spend time away from my children, and now what he's Edwards best fucking friend.
"They seem to be doing great; Zach just had yet another blowout. Do you guys sneak that boy chili or something when our backs are turned?" All three men laughed at the question before Edward continued, saying, "We did have a question about when Zach would be coming home though."
"Well, I was thinking of taking him off the oxygen tomorrow and seeing how he does. Zoey, as you can see, has had no problems at all." He said as he smiled down at my little girl. "But Zach is our little fighter, and though he's not doing as well as his sister, he is moving forward so much faster than we expected. Most of the times after this type of situation, he would still be relying on all his tubes and wires and not able to eat on his own yet."
The situation he spoke of was the ruptured placenta that Jacobs's beatings had caused. Other than causing me to pass out and the need for me to have an emergency caesarian, as well as blood transfusion, it also caused both of my children to go without oxygen for a little too long. Zoey seemed to be doing fine when she was born, other than being 10 weeks early and not quite ready to be removed from the oven. Zach, on the other hand, had to have CPR administered the second he was out. Edward had later told me that the two minutes it took before he screamed his first high pitched wail were the longest minutes of his life. I sometimes thank God that I was passed out for that particular experience.
"So, what are you saying?" Emmett asked with pure excitement apparent in his voice. "Can little man come home too?" I felt hope well up in my gut as I looked down into the greenish blue eyes of my perfect little man.
"If all goes well, I'm guessing he will be able to go home a couple days after Zoey does; maybe a week after her at the most. Got that play structure up yet?" He laughed and shook his head when Emmett's face fell and we all heard the distinctive word 'shit' whispered under his breath. Emmett looked between me and Zach and nodded his head as he shot up from his chair, grabbed his coat and pressed a kiss to each of the Gummies before rushing out the door. He was saying something about picking up a couple more pieces to the insane play structure he bought as he disappeared from sight.
"Didn't I tell you not to encourage him, Dr. Lucifer?" I sighed as I glared at him and shook my head.
"But he's so much fun to mess with," Felix winked as he came to stand behind me and placed his hand on my shoulder. "And do you really think it is the first time I have ever heard that one, young lady?" I smiled as I shrugged my shoulders. "So they're fed, changed and ready for bed?" he asked with a slight chuckle to his voice. I nodded as I brought Zach up to my shoulder to burp. After only a few light pats he let lose a burp large enough to make his Uncle Emmett proud.
"That's my boy," Edward said proudly. Not only Emmett I guess. I smiled as I rolled my eyes and nestled my nose into Zach's neck.
"Ok, let's get these two into their beds for the night, Mommy," Felix squeezed my shoulder gently. I reluctantly stood up and placed Zach in his bed, making sure that his oxygen tube was placed perfectly and he was wrapped snugly into the light green Chanel blanket that Alice had gotten him. After doing one more check to make sure that everything was in there proper place, I placed a kiss to his soft little forehead and moved over to check over Zoey as Edward moved from her side to check on Zach.
After six weeks we had our twin's bedtime ritual down perfectly; the first few weeks were a mess as we bumped into each other constantly.
Making sure she had her pink Chanel blanket and her matching knit cap over her bald little head, I smiled as she reached her tiny little hand out to find the small little pink stuffed bunny next to her and wrapped her fingers tightly around its floppy ear.
"She really loves that little thing. Last night the new nurse took it out of her bed and she cried for an hour until I realized it was sitting next to her crib and not in there with her." I said, more to myself than to either of them, as I pressed a kiss to her forehead. "Uncle Rob is so excited that you love it so much." I took another picture of her death grip on the ear and sent it to his phone. I felt Edwards arms wrap around my waist and he pressed a sweet kiss to the back of my neck.
"Too bad Zach could care less about his." he laughed as I shrugged and giggled.
"Yeah, Rob was kind of pissed that he took to that funky purple monkey from Jackson instead of his blue bunny. He'll get over it," I sighed and melted into Edward's arms. "They're just so perfect."
"Yes they are." he agreed.
"Bella," I looked up when Felix called my name sternly, only to see him holding my overnight bag.
"Did I put it in the wrong cubby?" I asked as I stiffened.
"Nope, you're going home tonight." He said as he shook his head and smiled in what I can only assume was evil delight.
"I don't fucking think so." I spat out angrily at him, HOW DARE HE? "I have been here every night since I got out of surgery and I will be here every night until they both are sleeping soundly in their beds at home." He raised his eyebrow and merely dropped the bag at my feet, telling me without words that he expected my acquiescence.
"Do I really have to make it an order?" I hissed at his sarcastic question and tried to take a step towards him, but before I could even move my feet, I was pulled back tightly into Edwards's chest.
Ok, are we a fucking cat now?
I'm about to scratch the fuckers eyes out, so I would have to say yes.
"I AM NOT LEAVING MY CHILDREN." I growled as I fought against Edward's arms with all my might.
"It's just for the night Bella; you need a night off to relax before Zoey is home full time. I have no idea how you have been sleeping in that slider and I need you to be 100% before I can send her home with you tomorrow."
"How many times do I have...?" I stopped fighting against Edward's grasp as his words finely registered in my brain. "Tomorrow?" I whispered as I fell like a ragdoll into Edward's embrace. I heard him take a deep breath and hold it as he waited for the answer too. Felix nodded with his signature, though slightly-less-than-normal, evil smirk.
"Tomorrow?" Edward asked again almost breathlessly and I felt the tears sliding down my cheek as his arms held me tighter.
"Zoey is ready to go home; she just hit the five pound mark and is breathing and eating on her own. She will still need to have the heart monitor on at night, though." he told us as he nodded again, "but it's time for her to go home."
"Edward." I whispered happily as my body relaxed into his arms. I felt his nod and smiled once more as the tears continued to fall from my eyes. "Our little girl gets to come home."
"She does, and we have a ton to do to get ready for her." He tightened his arms around me and pressed a kiss to my hair.
"She will be ready to go home tomorrow at noon. You have pumped enough milk to last through the night. Oh, and Bella," he waited for me to look up from Edwards and mine entwined fingers to finish, "I don't want to see your pretty little face in this hospital any earlier than 7am tomorrow, do you understand me?"
"But…. That's like 12 hours from now," I stuttered and looked at my sleeping little angels longingly.
"It's less than 11. You'll be fine and you'll thank me for it in a weeks' time, trust me on this one. You need to get a full night's sleep tonight to be ready for her homecoming, these are doctors' orders you know." I looked back over at him just in time to see him wink at Edward.
"Come on baby; let's go get everything ready for our little girl to come home." I looked once more to my children and then glared at Felix once more.
"You better not let anything happen to them," I threated as I picked up the unnecessary overnight bag and walked past him, hitting his arm with my shoulder. I scoffed as he and Edward chuckled. "You know, that would've worked better if your Jolly-Green-Giant-self had bent your happy ass down a little so I could actually hit your shoulder." I grumped jokingly. He laughed as he bent his knees to bring his six foot seven height down to mine so I could officially carry out my threat.
"I promise you Bella, nothing will happen to your babies. I'm sure I can find a nurse or two that knows how to do their job," he winked at me as Edward ushered me out of the NICU.

"This one is stuffed full too," I heard Emmett yell through the house as I walked in the door. "Damn woman, don't you think that maybe you're going a little overboard?" I laughed as I heard Rose growl from near the kitchen area.
"Have you seen how much that boy shits?" she said as she walked out of the kitchen drying her hands and stopped when she saw us. "What are you doing home?" her face full of worry. "Did something happen?" I shook my head and ran into her arms.
"Zoey gets to come home tomorrow." I cried out gleefully into her neck as she held me tight.
"Oh Bella, that's so great," she whispered into my hair.
"I still think two closets full of diapers…" Emmett's words cut of when he rounded the corner. "What's going on?" I looked over my shoulder and smiled as Edward slapped his hand on Emmett's shoulder and explained to him that Zoey was coming home tomorrow. Emmett's smile grew so large I swear his dimples were about to become a permanent fixture.
"Zo-zo's commin' home," he said to himself and nodded. "Come on Rosie, we need to run to the store, need to get more diapers." I shook my head and laughed as Rose glared at Emmett.
"Diapers? Weren't you just bitching at me about how many they already have?"
"Babe, have you seen how much Little Man shits?" How the hell he said that with a straight face I will never know, but that is just one more thing you have to love about that big lug.
"How about we skip the diapers for now, I swear we have enough for a daycare." Edward said with a chuckle.
"What is that heavenly smell?" I sniffed and hummed. "Rose, is that apple pie?" my mouth started to water at the thought of fresh-baked hot apple pie and whipped cream.
Did you just say whipped cream?
Yeah.
Oh, I could think of something so much better than apple pie to lather that yummy stuff on.
I turned my head and took one long look up and down Edwards's perfect body as I remembered that it had been over six weeks since we have even touched more than platonically, let alone sleep together in the same bed.
"Rose baby, I really don't think she is listening to ya," Emmett's voice cut into a very vivid daydream of me licking the afore-mentioned whipped cream from Edwards's abs. I felt my cheeks burn but shrugged my shoulders and sighed dreamily.
"Give me a break, Emmy Bear, it's been a while," I sighed.
"Now what fun would that be, Izzabee. Just remember you already have your hands full with two, you guys don't need another right now." He wrapped his arms around me and whispered into my ear, and ten deftly jumped back just in time for him to barely miss catching my elbow to his stomach.
"See you tomorrow Emmett," Edwards's voice came out husky like, and I watched Emmett's face light up before he quickly pressed a kiss to my cheek and ran out of the house, practically pulling Rose behind him. Edward and I locked eyes and stood perfectly still until we heard distinct sound of Emmett's warbled rendition of bad 60's porn music get cut off by the slamming of the front door.
"Edward," I sighed his name as he brought his hand up to cup my cheek. I leaned into it and felt my stomach flutter.
"Please tell me that Angela gave you the ok for this." he whispered, his hushed voice filled with desire. His eyes were all I could see as he continually stepped closer to me until his body was pressed firmly against mine. I nodded my head slowly and smiled as my hands drifted lightly up his chest to wrap around his neck.
"This morning, right before Lucifer kicked me out and I was kidnapped by the girls," I squealed as he lifted me up in his arms and captured my lips with his. I gasped for breath as his lips left mine minutes later and was gently lowered to our bed.
"You are so beautiful." he sighed as he lowered his body over mine. "Have I told you how mouthwatering those jeans look on you?" I shook my head and moaned as his hands grazed over my hips. "But…" He pressed a lingering kiss to my neck, causing me to gasp as his fingers moved to the zipper of the jeans and slowly started to lower it tooth by tooth, "they'll look so much better in a heap on the floor, don't you think?"
"I couldn't agree with you more." I moaned as the button was popped and he stood up and pulled them down my legs and off of me. In less than a split second my blissful lust was crushed by my own anxiety. I cringed as I brought my hands over my now spongy stomach, trying to hide as much as my little hands could cover. I heard Edward sigh as he lay next to me and he lovingly placed his hands on top of my own. Hands that were now trying frantically to pull the hem of my shirt lower to cover the extra skin, deep purple stretch-mark's, and the bright red scar that adorned my once flat and smooth stomach.
"I know what you're thinking," he whispered into my ear as he pushed my shirt up to just under my breast, and his fingers lightly trailed over my road map of a stomach. I cringed as they caressed over the sensitive flesh of my cesarean scar, "and you're so wrong. This right here," his fingers ran along my scar which, even though had little or no felling to it, still caused my body to cringe in pain purely from memory. "this is a visual reminder that you brought two perfect babies into this world. It's proof of the strength that you alone had to take care of our children until they were able to join us." He pressed a kiss to my temple before lowering himself down the length of my body leaving light touches and kiss on his downward trek.
"These are just a reminder of the time and energy that you put into bringing those same two perfect people into this world. You alone Bella, had the strength to care for and grow those little angels." His lips followed the purple lines of my stomach as he looked loving up into my eyes. "You are so beautiful Isabella Marie Swan, and nothing can or will change the way that I see you or feel about you. I never want you to feel insecure about your body or anything else about yourself around me. I love you baby, and nothing will change that, especially something as unimportant to me as a few slight changes to your outer body." His cheek rested on my stomach as his fingers made slow circles over my thighs, moving them ever closer to my barely covered core. "But I do have to say, your curvier hips and larger tits are quite spectacular." I slapped at his shoulder as I sniffed and laughed at him.
"God, I love you Edward." I sighed and then moaned as his fingers slid under the elastic edge of my lace purple panties.
"I love you to Bella. But, I do have a question for you… does the bra match?" I did my best to remember if I had put the matching bra on this morning before I remembered that I had on one of my less than sexy nursing bras.
"No." I answered and smiled as I heard his hum before I felt the sharp pull and heard the ripping sound of yet another pair of my panties. "I'm glad Alice made me buy a few dozen new pairs today."
"Smart woman." His voice was husky as his lips lightly pressed kisses down my stomach until they reached my newly waxed mound. His nose ran over my core causing a sharp intake of breath on my part and then a moan from his as he took a deep breath. "How I have missed you."
"Are you really talking to my cooch?" I laughed as he glared at me and then winked.
"Don't interrupt; we are a little busy reacquainting ourselves, thank you," he said saucily.
"Oh well, please don't let me get in the middle of that," I giggled as I rested my head on my arms and started singing Love in an Elevator at the top of my lungs.
"Think you're pretty cute don't you?" he chuckled before biting my left thigh.
"Nope…" I giggled as he blew a raspberry over the still slightly stinging bite. "But my boyfriend does, he's told me so a time or two."
"You're wrong you know." I looked down just in time to watch him move his face to the other thigh and give it the same attention. I hissed and then moaned as he licked where his teeth just marked.
"He doesn't think I'm cute anymore?" I rose up on my elbows to watch as he looked up into my eyes shaking his head.
"He thinks you are amazingly beautiful and…" he winked with his cocky crocked grin on his lips before his head dropped and I felt his tongue take one long slow pass up my wet core and I couldn't contain my heated moan as he circled my sensitive bundle of nerves.
"Fuck," I hissed as I fought to keep my eyes open and not fall back into the pillows in pleasure.
"And you're completely delectable." His voice was husky and deep as he lifted his eyes back up to meet mine while licking his lips.
"So, not cute anymore, got it." I stammered while trying to catch my breath. Just as I thought it might be possible to breathe again his long talented fingers started to lightly tease my lips and around my clit without touching it. He shook his head and smirked as I moved my hips slightly trying to get his fingers where I needed them the most.
"Little bit greedy tonight Isabella?" he whispered as he pulled his body up and over mine.
"Ugh…" I huffed as I took two large handful of hair and pulled his face to mine. "It's has been week's since I have had any type of enjoyment in that area." I pressed a light kiss to his lips and lifted my hips up to his, feeling his jean clad harden arousal hit just the right spot. "Please, tease me later, but I need you now baby," I whispered against his lips while slowly thrusting my hips up and causing the most perfect sensation to flood through my body as I pulled his shirt off and tossed it to the floor.
"As you wish," he whispered back before pushing himself off the bed, and unfortunately off of me as well, and in less time that it took for me to take a deep breath and remove my own shirt and bra, he had ripped open his button-fly and pushed his pants and boxer briefs to the floor before gently covering my body with his once again. "I love you so much baby," He whispered against my lips as the head of his dick teased my entrance before slowly pushing in inch by inch, his glistening green eyes locked with mine watching for any signs of discomfort.
I threaded my fingers through his hair and pulled his lips tighter to mine as I met each of his gentle thrusts with one of my own. I could see the change in Edward's eyes once he realized I wasn't in any kind of pain and we both moaned hungrily as his thrusts grew stronger and faster and his pelvic bone hit my sensitive bundle of nerves just right every time. The heat started at my finger tips and toes and seemingly raced to my chore, causing my orgasm to hit me quite unexpectedly. My screaming of his name and nails embedding into his scalp was the final push he needed to follow me over the cliff.
"Get some sleep my love," he whispered into my ear as he snuggled tightly aginst my back once we had both gotten our breaths back. "Our little girl is coming home in just a few short hours." The kiss to the back of my sweat covered neck was the last conscience thing that I remembered.
FBFBFBFBFBFBFBFB
"No, the pink one," I said as I walked into the garage as Edward was locking in a car seat.
"Thought we would take them both so we could have the nurse go over this one too when she checks Zoey's." He tossed the words over his shoulder.
"Good idea babe," I cooed as I opened up the trunk and put the suitcase of a diaper bag into it. "I love it when you prove there's more to you than just a pretty face." I heard him huff before I felt his hand slap my ass.
"I thought I proved that to you months ago, 10 months to be exact."
"Little cocky there aren't you, Mr. Cullen?" I raised my eyebrow as I looked at him looking back at me with a smirk covering his face. He stalked over to me in two steps before pulling me into his arms and capturing my lips in a heated kiss.
"Don't I have a reason to be, Miss. Swan?" he asked as he trailed a string of light kisses across my jaw and I tried in vain to catch my breath.
"Yes sir, you sure as hell do," I finally said as I grabbed his hair and pulled his lips back up to mine. Once our bodies decided that air was truly a needed commodity to live we pulled apart.
"Let's go bring our baby girl home." He whispered as his arms tightened around my waist and returned my feet to the ground.
Hell, I don't even remember him picking our lard ass up; poor boy's going to break his back. I shook my head at my own inner monologue before nodding and pressing one more kiss to Edwards's lips.
"And then we can find out when little man will be released. God, I hope he did ok when they took his oxygen tube out." I whispered as Edward led me to the passenger seat with a supportive hand placed on the small of my back and helped me get in.
"I know he did just fine, Felix would have called if there had been a problem." I nodded as he lightly kissed the tip of my nose before shutting the door and walking over to the driver's side.
"I still don't understand why he couldn't do it with us there," I said as I leaned my head against the headrest and closed my eyes to block out the glare of the morning sun shining off the wet Seattle streets.
"How do you think you would have reacted if Zach didn't started breathing on his own and was struggling?" his hand covered mine, the ones that were now tightly clasped in my lap in panic over that scenario.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah; can you go back to being just pretty?" I hissed and broke into a slight smile as he chuckled beside me and entwined our fingers together.
"As you wish," he snarked before turning on the radio and humming to the music. The vibration of my phone from my front pocket startled me out of my memories from last night.
June 5, MTV movie Awards. Not taking NO for an answer.
I sighed as I read the message and rolled my eyes. "Not gonna take 'no' my ass." I hissed as I typed the same message back.
"Rob?" Edward asked with a chuckle.
"Yes, what the hell is up with him and wanting to take me as his date to an awards show? Doesn't he have enough problems with the tabloids?" I huffed as my phone once again vibrated in my hands.
And a nice one to I might add, but we are not talking about your ass. I will arrange everything, Edward and my god-children will be in a hotel room close by. I need you there Bella. A good best friend would do it…
You have to still fight Emmett for that position you know? I laughed as I pressed send.
"Changing the subject isn't going to detour him you know," Edward whispered in my ear as he read over my shoulder at a red light.
"One can always hope, I mean he is another one of those pretty people. And you know what they say about them pretty people…" I winked at him as I pressed a kiss to his cheek.
He just wants the girl; I'll take the boy, easy. By the way, tickets have just been bought; you fly out June 4, staying at the Hilton in LA.
"I'm going to kill him." I hissed as my phone once again vibrated in my hands.
It's less than 2 blocks from the venue. And you better call me when you find out when my boy is coming home.
"Edward, do something about this," I whined as I held the phone up. He chuckled as we pulled into the hospital parking lot.
"Bella I love you, but his is all yours baby. You promised that you would at least go to one with him, and you have already turned him down for the Grammys, People's Choice, and Academy awards." I huffed as I slammed my phone into my pocket and swung my door open once Edward parked the car.
"Did he truly think I would leave my babies? They are in the NICU for Christ sakes." I shouted as I walked around to the back to pull the diaper bag out, and then slammed the trunk with a strength I didn't even know I processed.
'Baby calm down, he knew the reason why, and he understood. But by June the Twins will be five months old, I think you can go out for a couple hours by that time. Not to mention that I think I might even be able to handle them by then," He said and laughed as I glared at him and stomped my whinny little ass all the way to the NICU.
Are you really stomping your feel like a child?
Yeppers; I'm a child who has two of her own, sue me.
A smile forced itself to my lips as I walked into the door of the NICU and immediately notice that my perfect little man was no longer tethered to a million wires and a breathing tube. A tear fell from my eye as I leaned into his basinet and placed my first full kiss to his soft little cheek.
"Look at daddy's big boy," Edwards proud voice caused more tears to fall as Zach opened his eyes.
"He did great this morning, no problems what so ever," Felix said from my left causing my smile to widen even more.
"Do we have a date then?" Edward asked as he picked up Zoey and kissed her cheek before placing the hot pink knit hat my mom made on the top of her little bald head and matching knit coat over her little arms.
"I want a few more days to watch over him," he tapped his chin and smiled as I turned from the basinet with Zach cuddled under my chin, "but I'm thinking he should be ready to go home by Monday morning."
"But today is… Felix that's in two days." I gasped as I looked down to my little man.
"My God, she does know my name!" he joked and placed a large hand on my shoulder and said, "Sweetie, you get to take your son home in two days."
