-PJ

Summary: It's been 10 years since the defeat of Victoria. 10 years since Edward left Bella in the woods alone. In 10 years, Bella's gotten married and a child of her own. On an outing with her son, Bella's past returns.

Pairing: Bella/Paul

Bella squatted down to her 5 year old's level, wiping his mouth of the cotton candy. "Was it good?" Bella asked with a smile, her son touching her face with a smile. "Yes. Did you get daddy some?" He asked, bouncing slightly.

Bella smiled with a nod. "Yes I got daddy some. Come on, we need one more thing." Bella grabbed her son's hand, as they walked into a clothing stores. "Mommy, can I get my ball?" He asked. Bella grabbed the little ball from her purse and looked down at him sternly. "Yes, but keep it in your hands okay Pj? No bouncing."

Pj nodded, his smile like his fathers. "Yes ma'am!" He jumped up and down, his brown curly hair bouncing. She grabbed his free hand, as they walked around. Bella wanted to find Paul some shirts. He still phased from time to time, and although his anger is no longer an issue, he just flies through them.

Bella hummed as she looked on a rack. Pj bounced his ball, letting it bounce back into his hand. "PJ..." Bella singsong, knowing him well. "Oops." He stated as the ball bounced off his sneaker and towards another part of the store. "My ball." He snatched his hand away, racing towards the multicolored ball.

Bella turned around quickly, her eyes widening at the blonde woman who was handing PJ his ball. "PJ." Bella said, hastily walking towards her son. She grasped his hand, leaning to pick him up in her arms.

PJ watched the woman with golden eyes, hiding his face in his mother's hair. "Vampire mommy." He whispered in her ear. Bella patted his back, soothing him. "Thank you." Bella said, glancing at the same Rosalie she saw 10 years ago.

Rosalie didn't say anything except stare at PJ. Her eyes went to Bella, a look of longing on her face. She opened her mouth only to stop short as Edward's voice filtered though. "Rose, we're..." Bella met the golden eyes of Edward as he walked in behind Rosalie, his eyes going wide.

"More vampire's mommy. I want daddy." PJ tugged on her hair, whispering quietly. Edward's eyes flickered to PJ, then at Bella's finger. "Oh..Bella.. it's so good to see you." Bella smoothed PJ's hair back with a smile, hoping to give her son a piece of mind.

"Likewise. If you would excuse me." Bella stated, giving them a polite smile. She was very uncomfortable. She just didn't like them near her son. His blood had that same potency that hers had, it greatly bothered her.

A vampire that escaped from Victoria's army was never found, and showed up the year Bella gave birth, stating that his blood was just as good as hers. She was at Forks general at the time. The vampire posed as a nurse and was feeling on PJ while he slept in her arms. Paul hadn't made it to the hospital then, it was just her and Charlie.

The vampire was dead within hours, but left a scar on his leg, one just like hers on her arm. Edward walked around Rosalie, his eyes liquid like. They immediately went to a frozen texture as Bella felt electricity in her bones.

"Back away Cullen." Paul's arm wove around Bella's shoulders, his hand smoothing down PJ's hair. PJ reached for Paul, who grabbed him immediately. "Hey Buddy." PJ his face in Paul's neck, his little hands gripping Paul's neck. Paul's free arm went around Bella's waist, pulling her close to him. Edward stepped back standing next to Rose, nodding.

Bella noticed the bag in his hand's. PA Furniture "Moving in?" She asked, indicating towards the bag. She hoped they weren't coming back. "Oh, well. We planned to scope out Forks again." Rosalie stated, her eyes lingering on PJ. Bella glanced at Paul in concern. "It's only been 10 years. Half of the people Bella went to high school with live in Forks. Your presence activates the genes in young men on the reservation, causing them to shift. No offense here, but I hate your kind with a passion. Thanks to the little vampire you left running around, we had an army to fight, one escaped and 5 years later, fed off my son. I sucked the venom out. I also don't want to see my son phase in a few years. So rethink your decision."

He ushered Bella outside of the store, and they made their way towards the food court. Bella grabbed PJ, kissing his cheek. She ran a hand over Paul's cheek, moving the hair out of his eyes. "Just calm down. It's alright. We're both right here." They stared into each other's eyes, Paul pulling them to his chest. She could feel the slight rumbling of his chest, feeling calmness surround her. Looking to her right, she saw Jasper wrapped around Alice, far off into the crowd. He threw her a nod and a smile.

A large crowd walked by, Jasper and Alice disappearing with it.
