Chapter 38
BPV.
Before we knew it three months had flown by. Alice had thrown a grand baby shower which rivaled the wedding in grandeur. She accepted having a son with ease and was really looking forward to it. She stayed consistent with the name as well. Her child was going to be named John Whitlock Hale and that was the end of that. Edward and I felt bad about her not having a girl and agreed to name ours Charity. After all I loved the name anyways. It got too much when she started to force Allison as a middle name so for that we went with Rose after Rosalie . We decided to name our son Marc with the middle name of Anthony. Rose and Emmett were still fighting over names. Emmett still wanted his names that he picked out in the ultrasound room while Rose wanted Calvin, James and Luke. She never told us the middle names. We had just finished our last exams and were packing for the island. We wanted the babies to be born where we first met. Emmett thought the idea was crazy at first.
Flash back
" Are you crazy…we cant fly, how are we going to get there!" Emmett said.
"We drive Emmett obviously!" Edward said.
"Not all of us are Med students Edward…I don't know how to deliver triplets in my back seat man!" Emmett said shaking his head.
"Didn't they teach you that in that training program?" Edward asked.
"I may of missed a class or two!" Emmett admitted.
"You do know how to operate a cell phone right?" Edward asked.
"Edward I'm not stupid!" Emmett said.
"Then call me if there is any problems!" Edward said. we were taking separate mini vans. Edward Jasper and Emmett had gotten three of the most safest mini vans on the face of the planet…they were outfitted with bullet proof glass and armor exterior.
" Okay!" Emmett said.
End of flash back.
We were on the road the morning after the exams. We must of driven through ten states before dark. To arrive in Florida took us five days. It then took us another five hours to reach the dock.
'About time I was getting sick of the interior of the mini van!" Alice exclaimed as we got out to board the boat…the guys were driving the vans in. In the past few months we grew exponetionally…Emmett even made comments to Rose.
Flash back.
"You look like your carrying a baby elephant!" Emmett said on the way to the doctor's office the day we found out about the twins and triplets.
"It feels like that too…it probably inherited its daddy' s size…what were you Emmett when you were born…20 pounds!" Rose shot back.
End of flash back
" See you in five!" Alice said.
"Boys!" Alice said to me
"Bella ill be here as long as you need me!" Alice continued
"Alright." I said
We were watching t.v when Edward came it. He had a strange look on his face…it was stressed but relieved at the same time.
"I'm so glad that I didn't miss this!" Edward said.
"Oh there is a few more hours of this!" I said. Then the anesthesiologist came in at this point asking if I would like the epidural. I didn't refuse.
I was in for a long run.
The boat ride took the usual two hours to get to the island. When we got there we immediately went to the hotel. Nothing had changed except for us since the last time we came here.
"Shopping tomorrow?" Alice asked.

"Shopping tomorrow?" Alice asked.
"Okay!" Rose and I agreed. Jasper shot Alice a warning look. She had been having some problems lately and they had wanted her on bed rest. As if Alice would let that happen.
"Jasper I'm due to pop any day now…don't worry exercise is good for the baby!" Alice said. Jasper couldn't argue with that logic
"Just be careful!" Jasper said.
"No I'm going to endanger both my and our unborn child's life!" Alice said defiantly
" of course ill be careful silly!" Alice added
" What's for dinner?" I asked.
"Room service…if Alice is going to be on her feet tomorrow I want her to have as much rest as possible!" Jasper said
"Sounds cool!" I said
Alice…looking like a red ball bounded up the stairs first. All we could hear was "Shopping, shopping , shopping!" ringing up the stairs. We were going to buy some more clothes for the babies probably. we must of packed twenty pairs for each child.
The next morning Alice was at our door already to go. She looked like a pink gumball…which was testimony to what I looked like considering I was two times her size and wearing the same color. Rose came in looking absolutely huge. Her due date it turned out was in early January…She was only a week pregnant…not two when she found out. (a/n just go with it!)I didn't want to see what she would look like in early January.
"Ready to go?" Rose asked
"Yep!" Alice said dragging me out the door.
We had been shopping for three hours. Alice got a boat load of maturnity and baby clothing for all of us. You would of thought that we were moving here! I was in the dresssing room trying on my twentieth outfit on when I felt this feeling of almost indigestion. I brushed it off as part of being pregnant . It came again about ten minutes later while I was walking with Alice. When it hit a third time again ten minutes later I finally brought it up.
"Oh I get that all the time…god damn Emmett and his genes!" Rose laughed. It was then that I was hit with a sudden cramping feeling.
"What the hell…I'm getting this cramping feeling now!" I said. Alice had a look of realization on her face.
"BELLA DO YOU KNOW WHAT TODAY IS?" Alice shouted.
"What?"
"CHRISTMAS EVE…WE'RE DUE TODAY!" Alice continued to shout. Shit I couldn't be in labor in the middle of a mall. Another cramp hit just then.
"Alice I think I need to sit down!" I said sitting on a bench. I was hit by the worst cramp of my life just then.
"OWWWWW!" I screamed. Alice then whipped out her car keys and dragged us out the front door.
" Common Bella its hospital time for you!" Alice said throwing me into the van…it figured that I would have to be the first one. She then proceeded to drive at a hundred thousand miles per hour towards the only hospital on the island. My water broke all over her back seat. Damn it these kids were coming now!
"OWW!" I shouted as another contraction hit.
" If she's like that and she's only having two I'm afraid for my self!" Rose looking at me from the third row.
"Shut it Rose!" Alice said continuing to blow past red lights.
We reached the hospital a short time later. It was found that I was five center meters dilated. They told me that I still had a few hours of hard labor to go. Damn it I couldn't take a few more hours of this…I wanted them out and now.
"Alice have you called Edward?" I asked after Alice was allowed to enter the room,
"I totally forgot about that!" Alice said. She peered her head around the corner looking for nurses and then whipped out her cell phone. She dialed Jasper's number. The guys were together at the games store on the other side of the island.
"Jasper get Edward on the phone right now!" Alice said.
" What do you mean you cant find him? YOU NEED TO FIND HIM NOW." Alice roared.
" Why…his wife is in labor that's why…what do you mean no she's not…are you with her right now!" Alice said. Another contraction hit. I actually broke Alice's hand in the middle of the contraction.
"OWW!…That was Bella breaking my hand…she truly is in labor she needs Edward!" Alice half screamed
APV
Two hours after arriving at the hospital we were still waiting for the babies to be born. I now had a pink cast on my hand. Edward had just come out telling us that it was getting close and they would be here soon. I turned excitedly to Jasper. Just as I did that I was hit by a sudden cramping feeling. God damn it I couldn't be in labor the same day as my friend! How fair was that!
" Jasper I have a problem!" I said ten minutes later when the another one hit.
"Not you too!" Jasper said.
"Oh I think so!" I said. Jasper then got a nurse. She placed me in a room next to Bella's. When the checked me they told me that I was already 7 center meters. I had been in labor all day and didn't know it.
" I think that the hospital should go on alert incase Rose pops….triplets usually come early!" Jasper said right after the doctor left. It was then that I heard my best friend's babies being born….it scared me half to death.
" Oh my god Jazz she sounds like she's dying in there or something!" I said freaking out.
"Don't worry I'm sure that she's fine!" Jasper said. It was then that we heard the cries of a baby.
"JASPER GO CHECK ON HER!" I said. Jasper ran out the door. A second later he came back with a smile on his face.
" She's fine and both babies are out and doing well…Edward's holding the babies and showing them the room right now" Jasper said.
"She wants to know how your doing…she saw you in the wheelchair!" Jasper continued. Just then the doctor came in to check me again.
"Can I have drugs!" I said….I was in extreme pain.
" No, your ready now!" the doctor said…that was quick!
BPV
Edward and I were laying in bed holding the twins when the nurse came in to take them to the wellness station. I couldn't believe that I was only in labor for three hours. We could hear Alice delivering from the next room over.
"Dear god she went fast…she was in labor for what an hour?" I asked. It was then that we saw Emmett pushing Rose in a wheelchair down the hall. Following them were a team of doctors and nurses. I really felt bad for them, I mean six babies in one day must be a workout for them.
"Did you guys all eat something at the mall or something?" Edward said astonished.
"I blame the Chicken Salad!" I joked.
" Hey….Johnny Whitlock Hale just arrived….10 pounds 10 ounces!" Jasper said running into the room. Dear god that sounded like it hurt!
"Tell Alice I feel her pain…ours was 7 pounds each!" I said.
"Hey…anyone call the grandparents by the way?" I asked.
"You take Charlie…ill take Carlisle and Esme ….Then we'll take the Hales and Brandon's if Jasper hasn't got to them yet." Edward said I then grabbed the hospital phone. Charlie was on standby ever since we told him where we were leaving for the island. He was going to catch the first flight out the minute he found out that I was either in labor or had delivered.
"Hi dad!" I said.
"Hey Bells what's up?" Charlie asked.
" Oh just hanging here with your surely new grand children and Edward." I said.
"Do you mean…" Charlie said.
" Exactly 7 pounds each…born five minutes ago!" I said.
" I'm coming out there!" Charlie said. Edward whispered to me that Carlisle was willing to fly Charlie out with them tonight.
" Carlisle and Esme have offered their private jet to you if you want to leave tonight?" I asked.
" Tell them yes and thank you…what time?" Charlie said.
"When?" Charlie asked.
"As soon as you get there!" I said after Edward whispered it to me.
"By the way you might want to bring Mr. Brandon… Johnny Whitlock was born 10 pounds 10 ounces two minutes ago, Jasper just broke the news to us!" I said
"I'm out the door now ( knocks on Mr. Brandon's door) BRAD ALICE AND BELLA HAD THE BABIES WE NEED TO LEAVE NOW!" Charlie shouted the last part to Mr. Brandon. a commotion then ensued.
"We're on our way!" Charlie said . Then he hung up.
"He's on his way to your parents now!" I said to Edward after I placed the phone down
"We don't have to call anyone else …the Hales were already there" Edward said.
"And dad practically dragged Mr. Brandon out of the house!" I agreed
Alice was then wheeled into our room. Instead of the tired look of most mothers…She was bright eyed and bushy tailed. She had a huge smile on her face.
"Hi guys…where's the babies?" Alice asked.
"Oh in the nursery right now I said…Edward I want to see them!" I said. I then moved into another wheelchair and he wheeled me into the nursery. Alice followed.
"Oh my god they're so cute!" Alice cooed. It was then that we saw three isolates come in all labeled McCullen Babies.
"Damn Rose popped those kids out fast!" Alice said seeing the children being wheeled in. All of them had Emmett's hair and were huge for triplets.
"Yeah Rose was in labor for 10 minutes…I never saw babies come so fast!" Emmett said from behind us. The nurse came out and asked Emmett to name them.
"Emmett John McCullen Jr, Eric Emmett McCullen and Bret Emmett McCullen." Emmett said proudly. We could hear Rose screaming "NO!" all the way down the hall.
"Um I think that you should talk to your wife before we write down names Mr. McCullen I mean she adamantly refused those names before. Emmett then went to talk to Rose. He came back five minutes later defeated.
"She wants to name them Calvin Hale- McCullen, James Hale-McCullen and Luke Hale-McCullen.
"Its for the best Emmett I'm sure" Jasper said.
" Yeah…Well I can take solace in the fact that Edward and Bella named their kid after me!" Emmett said.
"Emmett what the hell are you talking about?" Edward asked confused.
"Marc Cullen…McCullen…kinda sounds similar doesn't it?" Emmett said.
"Emmett that was a coincidence!" Edward said. I couldn't believe that Emmett thought that we named our kid after him..
" So you didn't name your kid after me?" Emmett said disappointed again.
" We'll name our next one after you!" I said giving Edward a look.
"Really!"
"Yes." Edward said
" So how much did they weigh?" I asked.
" 6 pounds each!" Emmett said smiling. Rose had eighteen pounds of baby weight.
"That sounds like it hurt!" Alice said
"Yeah well she asked me to get a vasectomy before we do it again." Emmett said.
"I can see why!" I said.
"So which ones are yours?" Emmett asked.
" Johnny Whitlock is over there ( Emmett cringed at the size of him) and the twins Marc and Charity are over there." I said.
"And I thought that the triplets were big!" Emmett said staring at little Johnny.
" Yeah well I couldn't picture delivering three!" Alice said.
"Damn Alice that kid is big for someone of your size!" Emmett said.
"Well I was a big baby…I just didn't grow since then and from what I understand Jasper and Rose were both eight pounds and that's huge for twins" EIGHT POUNDS I COULDN'T TAKE SEVEN.
"How much does he weigh?" Emmett asked.
"10 pounds 10 ounces!" Alice said
"Woah that had to hurt!" Emmett said.
"Oh you have no idea." Alice said
We then went back in our rooms to rest.
I awoke early the next morning to find the babies in their isolates near my bed. Edward was bottle feeding Charity and singing lullabies . He looked as if it was his life's mission to be a father. I picked Marc up and did the same thing. Edward looked at me and smiled.
"I just got off the phone with our parents…they're going to be here in an hour!" Edward said. I then proceeded to throw clothes on. Alice wheeled herself in at this point.
"I just got off the phone with my dad…he's so excited that he has a grandson…Mom said that he made the house into baby land!" Alice said
"Yeah Charlie actually had stuff saved." I said.
" You know what he did when he found out I was pregnant…told Jasper that he desperately hoped that I would have a boy…He didn't even yell at me for being pregnant in the first place!" Alice said
"I wish Charlie said that!" I said.
It was then that Emmett and Rose came in…Emmett was holding a baby in each hand and Rose had the third one. Seeing Emmett hold babies was the funniest thing in my life. He was holding them like footballs.
"So this is where the party is…Where's Jasper and John?" Emmett asked.
" Jasper took him for a walk around the ward…he'll be here any minute!" Alice said.
"Emmett tells me that he's big…how big is he?" Rose asked.
" 10 pounds 10 ounces when he was born!" Alice said.
"Ouch!" Rose said
" Tell me about it!" Alice said. Rose then saw Marc and Charity.
"Oh their so precious….Hi I'm your Auntie Rose…and this is your Auntie Alice!" Rose cooed.
" Oh they're so adorable!" Rose continued to coo. I then went to see her children. They were all spitting images of Emmett even now. They all had dark curly hair and you could already tell that they were going to have dimples. The only hints of Rose were the shape eyes and the mouth. They even had Emmett's color eyes.
" Oh their so cute…look at those curls!" I said.
"oh I know I could just play with them all day long!" Alice said placing her fingers in the curls.
We hadn't realized how much time had gone by until Jasper had come in saying that he saw the parents enter the maternity ward….they hadn't seen him though.
"Guys they're here!" Jasper said calling us into the hall way. we came out to see the group sitting together each set of grandparents staring back at us. Carlisle, Esme and Charlie were wearing " PROUD GRANDPARENTS OF TWINS" . The letters were on a pink background and were cobalt blue. The Hales were wearing bright blue t-shirts saying "PROUD GRANDPARENTS OF TRIPLETS +1" and the Brandon's were wearing "PROUD GRANDPARENTS OF JOHNATHAN WHITLOCK HALE!" in a similar style blue.
"Don't you love the t-shirts that I made honey!" Alice's mother said walking over to us. Everyone else followed.
" Let me hold my grandson!" Mr. Brandon said.
"they're so cute!" Charlie said
"Can I hold one!" Charlie said. I handed Marc over to him and Edward handed Charity over to Esme.
"Now you'll know the torture that we went through having girls!" Charlie and Mr. Brandon said to Edward.
" Yeah but at least she'll have a brother to help a little!" Edward said.
" True …he might scare people like Mike and Eric away!" Charlie said.
"How was it?" Mrs. Brandon asked.
" Three hours of excruciating pain Alice only had one hour and Rose had hers out in ten minutes" I said.
" You guys are lucky…with Alice I was stuck for ten hours…I wanted to kill your father for doing that to me….but it was worth it!" Mrs. Brandon said
"Ten hours…oww!" Rose said
"And I thought three was bad!" I said
"This reminds me of the day you were born…you know you were delivered in twenty minutes….your mother wanted to kill me for almost missing it while filling out admission peppers!" Charlie said.
"I wish mine was twenty minutes!" Mrs. Brandon said
