Ahhh! I've been gone forever! Finals are over now and it's Christmas Break so hopefully updates will be more frequent now! Also, this January, there will be two new baby stories! Look for them!
Sakura02: Well, of course. You can't go to Florida without going to Disneyworld.
Noble Korhedron: No, but I don't we've told him yet that she has plans of being immortal. He'll be mellow when he finds out
NijiNoNeko: Lol, Matthew's sister will show up shortly and she'll definitely cause some…interesting problems.
"Oh, this must be Matthew and Juliet!" Renee squealed as she met the four at the airport gate. She rushed over, hugging Bella tightly, then Edward, before kneeling down and hugging both children. "I was so excited when I heard you two were coming with Bella and Edward. Bella's told me so much about you two! You're so much cuter in person!"
Matthew blinked as Renee finally released the two and went to help Bella with her bags and lead them away. "She's nothing like Bella." Matthew whispered to Juliet.
Juliet nodded enthusiastically. She held Matthew's hand tightly as he followed after Renee, Bella, and Edward. "Do you think we'll get to go to Disneyworld?"
"No." Edward said firmly, glaring over his shoulder at the two children.
"What's wrong, Edward?" Renee asked, the smile never leaving her face.
Edward straightened slightly. "Juliet was saying she wanted to go to Disneyworld."
Renee's eyes lit up. "Well, of course we're going to Disneyworld. You can't bring little children to Florida and not take them to Disneyworld. That's just cruel. We can go as soon as we've dropped your bags off at the house."
Juliet and Matthew both grinned. It seemed to take forever for them to reach Renee's house, drop their bags off, and then head off to Disneyworld. Juliet bounced up and down in her car seat excitedly, ignoring Edward's grumbling as he was squished between Juliet and Matthew's car seats.
Matthew watched quietly as Renee and Bella talked with each other. Even though he knew his heart was no longer beating, he swore he could feel it twist painfully as he thought of his mother, his real mother, that was no longer alive. His mother that had given her life for him. He blinked as Edward placed a comforting hand on his head.
"Don't sulk." Edward spoke softly in Matthew's mind. "You will only upset Bella and Juliet if you do."
Matthew stuck his tongue out at Edward. "I'm not sulking. I just…I miss her." Juliet's squeal of delight broke Matthew's concentration and Edward pulled his hand off of Matthew's head.
"We're here!" Juliet cried out excitedly as Renee parked.
Both Edward and Matthew were completely covered from head to toe so not an inch of their skin was hit by the rays of the bright Florida sun. Renee suggested they all get lunch before going off to ride any of the rides. While Bella, Renee, and Juliet ate, Matthew and Edward simply poked at their food, moving it around so it looked like they had eaten something.
The rest of the day, the group ran around the park, riding all the different rides. Juliet got sick after the group rode the Teacups and hurled all over poor Edward.
"I'm sorry, Edward!" Juliet sobbed.
"Oh, poor thing." Renee cooed. "I'll take her to the bathroom and get her cleaned up."
Juliet shook her head. "No, it's okay. I'll go by myself."
"Be careful, Juliet!" Bella shouted as Juliet rushed off to the bathroom. "We'll wait right here for you!"
Juliet went to the bathroom and splashed cold water onto her face. She wiped her mouth and the front of her shirt clean before taking a drink of water and leaving the bathroom. She frowned as she looked around, not remembering where she had left Matthew and the others.
"Your friends are over there." A teenage girl said, smiling down at Juliet. She had fiery red hair pulled into a tight ponytail. Her light blue eyes looked at Juliet curiously before kneeling down in front of her. "You've been taking good care of him, haven't you."
Juliet blinked, tearing her gaze from the girl's side where she swore what looked like a cross bow was hanging. "Who?"
The girl patted Juliet's head before standing up and running off. "Take good care of him for me, okay?" She shouted over her shoulder.
"There you are." Bella rushed over, a small t-shirt in her hand. "We bought you a change of clothes. Let's go back in and get you changed."
Juliet nodded, pushing her encounter with the strange girl to the back of her head.
"Can we go back and see Renee soon?" Juliet asked as Edward drove his Volvo towards Bella's house. The rest of the trip to Florida had been fairly uneventful, the group spending most of their time at Renee's house. Juliet had completely forgotten about the strange red haired girl she'd met and hadn't said anything to the others about her.
"Probably not." Edward muttered, glancing over at Bella whom was sound asleep in the passenger seat.
Juliet frowned before her eyes widened. "Oh yeah. When Bella becomes a vampire, she won't be able to see her family anymore."
Matthew helped Juliet untangle herself from her car seat and hop out of the car. "Do you want me to take you home?"
Juliet hesitated before nodding. She walked over to the passenger side where Bella was finally waking up. She kissed Bella on the cheek. "Bye, Bella. See you later."
"Go straight home once you've seen her to No Man's Land." Edward said firmly to Matthew as he pulled Juliet's bag out of the back of the Volvo.
"Okay." Matthew said, taking the bag. He waited for Juliet to climb on his back before running off towards No Man's Land.
"You know, I could just phase and run with you." Juliet said, clinging tightly to Matthew.
Matthew shrugged. "But then you'd have to take all your clothes off and put them back on when we got to No Man's Land. Besides…I like holding you…" If there had still been blood flowing through his veins, he would've blushed.
Juliet grinned and gently tightened her arms around Matthew's neck. "I love you so much, Matthew! I'm glad I imprinted on you!"
Matthew grinned as well, gently placing Juliet on the ground in No Man's Land. He tensed as Jacob almost immediately appeared, along with Sam and a teenager Matthew didn't quite recognize. He racked his brain, trying to remember all the names Juliet had told him…Seth. The boy was Seth.
Juliet leaned forward and kissed Matthew's cheek. "I'll see you soon, Matthew."
Matthew nodded, watching as Juliet rushed over to her uncle before he ran back to the Cullen house.
"Oh!" Esme exclaimed as Matthew rushed into the house and hugged her tightly. She smiled and hugged the little boy. "Welcome home, Matthew. I take it Edward is with Bella and Juliet is safely home."
Matthew nodded, hugging Esme tighter.
Esme frowned and knelt down. "Is something wrong?"
Matthew shook his head, looking sheepishly at the floor. "No…I just missed you." In truth, seeing Bella with her mother had made Matthew miss his mother. Since she was no longer alive, it made him miss Esme, wanting to see the closest thing he had to a mother.
Esme smiled. "Did you have fun?" Her smile widened as Matthew's face lit up and he began talking excitedly about the trip.
"Why'd you fight with Emmett?" Juliet glared at Paul as the group sat around in Emily's house.
"He crossed the line." Paul hissed.
"Juliet, does Bella know what's been going on?" Sam asked.
Juliet shook her head. "No. Edward doesn't want to tell her. He doesn't want her to get upset."
"That's stupid." Jacob snarled. He stood up suddenly. "Come on, Juliet. It's passed your bedtime."
Juliet frowned but followed her uncle out of the house. "Jacob, don't do anything stupid, okay?"
Jacob couldn't help laughing. He held Juliet's hand as the two walked towards their house in silence. "I'm the one that's supposed to chastised you, not the other way around."
Juliet sighed as he almost immediately went back to sulking. "If it makes you feel any better, I threw up on Edward."
Jacob let out a barking laugh. "That does make me feel better."
