After the shopping trip
River and Bella both are season the chicken so that it can roast in the oven. They added veggies to it along with some red potatoes. Bella lets the rolls sit out. The chicken is done, when the rolls are in the oven. Bella helps her mom to set the table up. There was butter and honey out on the table, Bella has the iced tea out too. When the rolls are being pulled out, the door opened up and he hung up his coat and gun belt. Bella walks over to give her dad a hug; he kisses her hair. He walked over to his lovely wife, he wrapped his arms tightly around her waist. She turns her head for a kiss, he pulled back so they can have dinner together as a family. Mal sits in between his daughter and River. He had hoped some day after having their daughter that they could have another child. But they tried after their daughter was eight years old. But there was no luck, they had gone to doctor's over the years. It wasn't that they couldn't have another child, they can still have children. But River and him had accepted that Isabella would be their own child. He was very happy with his life with his wife and daughter. All of them were sitting together. Mal looks at his daughter, "how was your first day at school?" Bella thought it over, "it's no different then the big city. But I guess, no one will ever like you one way or another." Mal had a sincere look in his eyes. "I'm sorry, sweetie." River don't want tell her husband about the almost accident that happened today. "Mal, there sometimes that I need to tell you." Mal saw the seriousness in his River eyes. "What is it sweetheart?" River had her hand on his hand, "while I was picking up our daughter from school. Someone pulled out in front of us near crash our car." Mal had a tight grip on her hand. "Who was it?"
River looked to Bella; "it was Edward Cullen; sister Rosalie." Bella answered him. Mal wasn't too happy with the circumstances. "I'll talk to her father in the morning. He better have a really good realization why I shouldn't take away her driver license." River and Bella know that when he was angry it was best not to anger him. Mal don't look too happy, that he could have lost his wife and daughter. He got up from the table; Bella had wonder if it was best not to say anything at all. She had tears in her eyes; thinking she was in the wrong for saying something. River hug her tightly around the waist, both of them are holding on to each other. "Honey, your father isn't angry with you. He just worries about the both of us. Worried that he's going to lose the both of us. Don't take it to hard, sweetie. Your dad loves us more then life itself." Bella is hugging her mom very tight. Both of them pulled back from each other. Bella and River both heard the door opening up. Mal had returned after cooling off; from his anger. He saw both of his wife and daughter sad faces. Mal races over to his family; he hugged both River and Bella. Bella and River hugged him back, "I'm sorry you two, dad was just upset that's all. I don't mean to upset you two." Mal kisses both of their heads. River kissed his cheek; "your, alright my love. Worried that we may have gotten killed or serious injured. But me and Bella are safe."
