Well Enjoy the chapter
Bella's POV
I woke up the next morning and found that I was in my bed. I couldn't remember actually going into my bed last night. I sat up and looked at the clock next to my bed.
9.00. I never woke up this late in the morning, was normally up at 6.30. How did I sleep so much last night? I must have been tired because I couldn't remember actually going to bed.
I got up and walked into the kitchen. That's where I saw Edward standing making coffee and what looked like scrambled eggs.
Ahh, that why I slept so well last night. I thought to myself.
He looked over his shoulder and smiled at me.
"Morning love. Did you sleep better last night?" he asked as he retuned to cooking.
"Yes, I slept fine thank you. And you are cooking because?" I asked slightly confused at why exactly he was cooking food.
" I noticed you were starting to wake up about 10 minutes ago. Your stomach had been grumbling since about 4 this morning, so I though I would start to make you breakfast." He said.
I wasn't going to argue with him. I was actually starving, I didn't eat much yesterday, because well, I was planning to get absolutely hammered last night, but I didn't even go out.
Edward had made me scrambled eggs on toast for breakfast and a cup of coffee. It was really nice. For someone who didn't eat food, he was a fantastic cook.
He bent over the table and looked at me.
"Do you want to go to my place today. I know Alice is dying to see you again." He said. I then remember the phone call the Edward had had last night, and I guessed it was from Alice.
"Oh, was it her who so rudely interrupted us last night?" I asked.
He laughed slightly.
"Yes it was her. she asked me to bring you over today. I know everyone else would like to see you again. Last time you were at my house, you didn't give us much chance to talk to you properly." He said.
He was right, last time I was at the house, I didn't give anyone much of a chance to talk.
"I should apologise to everyone. I was so rude last time." I said as I finished my food.
" I think rude is to strong a word. Short, snappy maybe better descriptions, but you had plenty of reasons to be like that. they all understand, you don't need to apologise" he told me. I still felt bad about how I had acted last time I was there, so I was going to apologise no mater what he said.
" There is another reason why I want to go over yours today. I need all of you to be in Naomi's life. She doesn't have any other aunts or uncles and I think it would be good for her if she did. But we also have another little, tiny problem." I told him.
"And what problem is that?" Edward encouraged me to finished what I was saying.
"Men" I said. I watched as Edwards face changed from a amused look to a very confused and slightly concerned look.
"She has never been in a room with more that one man at a time and then I take her into a room with 4 men and one of the nearly crushes her and the other 3 stayed away from her. So we have a lot of work to do with all 4 of you." I told him.
"So why doesn't she like us then?" he sounded upset. And I could understand why. Just told him that his daughter didn't like him, but we were going to work it out, I knew she would love Edward. They just had so much in common.
"Well Emmett, it is purely a personal thing. She doesn't like him because he nearly crushed her arm the first time he met her. Jasper, well she is a little frightened of him and I can understand why. Jasper frightened me when I first met him and I was 17, she is only 5. And Carlisle and you she is just wary of. She has to get use to you and then she will be fine. I hope. I've never had to introduce men into her life before." I told him as I got up and washed my plate at the sink.
" So how are you planning on doing this?" he asked, still leaning over the table where I had been sitting.
"Well basically, she is going to have to spend a hell of a lot time with everybody, but she will want to stay with the women. She loves Alice and she likes Rose and Esme, so that is going to mean that the guys are going to have to spend a lot of time with the girls as well." I said
"And what about me? How is she going to get use to me being around." He asked me, I could hear he was curious about how I was going to do this.
"Well, you are just going to have to spend a lot of time here. I want Naomi to have her father in her life. Do you mind spending a lot of your time here?" I asked leaning over the other side of the table so now our faces were inches apart.
"Not at all. I actually prefer to be here than anywhere else." He breathed as out faces got closer together. And then he kissed me. It wasn't like the way we kissed last night, this was a more loving and carful.
I pulled away, not because I wanted to, but because I had things to do.
I bent over the table and took Edwards hand and lead him to the door.
"Right, I have things to do so you need to go." I told him as I pushed him out of the door. He got about 2 feet away from the door before he stopped and it felt like I was trying to push a marble statue out of the way.
"Why should I go? I thought you were coming over to my place today." he asked still not facing me.
"Yes I am, but I have things to do now. So come back in about a hour and I should be done, and then we can go over to your place to talk to everyone" I said still trying to push him out the door.
I knew I wasn't going to get him to move by only me pushing him so I tried something else.
I got up onto my tip toe and kissed him behind his ear, I could feel his body relax a little but still not enough for me to move him. I then moved my hands from his shoulder blades where I was pushing him from and brought them down his back until I got to the bottom of his shirt. I was still kissing and breathing behind his ear. I put my hands under his shirt and moved them around his waist. His body relaxed enough again so that I was able to move him out the door. By the time that he realised that he was moving again, he was already out the door. I removed my hands from under his shirt and went to close the door.
But before I could begin to close the door, he held his hand up to stop me from closing it. I groaned as the door just stopped closing.
"You are going to see me in a hour. Just one hour. In that time, you could go hunting, get changed, tell Alice I'm coming over and come back here." I told him.
He looked at me as if he was going to ask me a question, but to make sure he didn't say anything I kissed him. He moved his hand from my front door to put it around me waist, but I got there quicker and closed the door and locked it, so he couldn't get back in with out drawing attention to himself.
"Go home! Ill see you in a hour" I called through the door as I went back into the house.
Right now where to start, there was so much to do it was unbelievable. I had dished to clean, laundry to do and just to generally clean the house.
I went into Naomi's room to get her laundry. When I got into her room, I was shocked by how untidy it was. Well, she can do that when she gets home tomorrow. I picked up her dirty clothes and headed into the kitchen. I put her clothes on the floor next to the washing machine and then I went into my room to get my laundry. Once all the clothes were in the kitchen, I separated them into darks and whites. I put one load in and went to clean the house.
To clean the living room, the spare room and my bedroom took me about half a hour. I looked at the clock in the kitchen and saw that I had about 10 minutes before Edward would be here again. I was going to start another chore when I realised that I hadn't changed since I got up and was still in my shorts and t-shirt that I was in last night. I needed a shower.
I went into the bathroom and turned on he the shower and got in. The shower was so relaxing I could have stayed in there for hours.
Reluctantly, I got out of the shower, grabbed a towel and went to go into my room. I walked past the living room and I could hear the TV. Had I even put it on this morning? I don't think I had.
I walked into the living room to see Edward sitting on the sofa with the remote in his hand.
"I thought you said you would be ready in a hour?" he asked still looking at the TV
"No, I said I would be finished in a hour. Didn't say anything about being ready. And as you can see, I am clearly not ready." I said standing in the door way.
He looked up at me to see that I only had a towel around me. I smiled at him as he continued to stare.
"Well, I'm going to get dressed. Oh by the way, the locked doors were suppose to keep the vampire out." I told him as I turned again to walk into my room.
I walked into my room grabbed some underwear out of the draw, put them and went to look for something to wear. I knew that Alice was going to be at the house, so I tired to pick something that Alice would approve of.
I picked a pair of skinny jeans with black dolly shoes and a red t-shirt that I would wear with a waistcoat. I turned to look in the mirror. My hair was a mess after the shower I had just had, so I simply pulled it up into a pony tail.
I went back into the living room to find Edward still sitting on my sofa.
"Now I'm ready" I said to him as I walked into the room.
"Ok then, lets go." He said as he got up from the sofa, turning off the TV as he walked past. Just as we got to the door, I remember I had to do something.
"One sec, I need to do something before we go." I picked up my purse and pulled out my cell phone.
"Who are you calling?" he asked standing by the door.
"My mom, I want to talk to Naomi before we go." I told him as I held the phone up to my ear and waited for my mother to pick up.
"Hello" she answered after a few rings.
"Hey mom. Is Naomi up?" I asked, knowing full well that she had probably been up since the crack of dawn.
"Yes Bella, she is up. How are you so late calling?" My mother asked me.
"Yea, sorry about that, I kind of slept late, I've only been up about a hour and I've had to do a bit of housework as well." I told her honestly. I didn't tell her that my vampire boyfriend was back and we ad spend most of the morning kissing.
"Ok, ill call her now." My mother put the phone down and I could hear her calling Naomi. I could hear my daughter running to get to the phone.
"Morning mommy." She said with her beautiful voice.
"Morning sweetie. You enjoying your self as Grandmas?"
"Yes. We have been watching Disney films."
"Oh that's nice. Do you want to stay at Grandmas tonight as well, or do you want to come home?" I asked her, I was suppose to be working tonight, but it was over time, so I didn't really have to go in.
"No, I want to stay with Grandma." She said
"Ok, well I'm going out now. Ill ring you later ok."
"Ok mommy. Love you" she said just before she hung up.
"Love you too." Once I had said that's, she hung up the phone.
I turned back to Edward and he was still waiting for me by the door. He simply looked at me.
"Are you ready to go now?" he asked in a calm voice.
"Yes, now I'm ready to go." I told him as I walked past him to open the door, but it was locked.
"How did you get in here?" I asked looking back at him.
"The window" he said with a smile on his face.
I rolled my eyes and opened the door. His car was outside, but it wasn't the car I was expecting. Out side my house was an Aston Martin Vanquish.
I turned around to lock the house door.
"Where is the Volvo?" I asked as I finished locking the house up.
"Rose is in the middle of tuning it up. I don't actually know what she is doing to my car" he said. He then took his keys out of his pocket and pressed a button so the car would unlock.
We walked over to the car and got in.
It didn't take us long to get to his house. The last time I was here, I did fully realise how big this house actually was. It was big and white. There was four floors that were visible on the outside, and they probably had another floor downstairs.
I got out of the car. Edward soon followed suit and came around the car and held my hand.
We walked up to the house, and Edward opened the door. When we got in the house, we found that everyone was in apart from Emmett and Rosalie.
Alice and Jasper were in the living room watching TV. Alice heard us come in and walked towards us.
"Hey Bella." She came over and hugged me. I couldn't believe how much I had missed her over the last 5 years. Even though I had seen her everyday this week, every time I saw her, it was like the first time I saw her again.
She broke away from our hug and looked around.
"Where is Naomi?" she asked.
"She is with my mom." I told her
"In Florida?" she asked with as much confusion in her voice as Edward had when he asked me.
"No, she bought a small place near me so she could see Naomi regularly. She still lives in Florida, but she comes down every now and then when I need a hand with Naomi" I said.
"Well, you do know that we are willing to help with Naomi if you need help." Alice said.
"Yea, I know. I sort of need to talk to you about that." I said walking around her and walked into the living room. Carlisle and Esme came down the stairs.
"Hello Bella." Esme said as she came into the living room.
Edward followed Carlisle and Esme into the living room and sat down. I followed him and sat next to him on the sofa.
"So, what did you want to say about Naomi." Alice asked.
